History: It was crafted by individuals in the users homeworld. The ruler and elder sister at the time of the user enhanced the weapon so that it was a weapon that gave off evil and was fortified by evil. It is now a natural magic booster for all forms of magic and is one of a kind in that it was an original make and created by extraordinary magics.

Pictures: Example of one, but it doesn't look like this exactly: Link
It looks like an ordinary staff so the end parts are different and there are no golden bracers at the ends either. It's longer than that by a bit and the tattoos are a brighter gold.

It looks okay.

WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.


Roxas, yeah, this is a good weapon.

But, unless I'm mistaken, doesn't this kinda circumvent Dual-Wield rules?

Actually, . . . there's supposed to be a difference between two-handed fighting and two-weapon fighting.

It depends on what the stance is when the character is wielding the weapon. Does it end up looking like a plain version of Darth Maul's double lightsaber?

Grizz

It mentions separation.

I just noticed that.

Yeah, in order to use two swords at once the character would have to have the posts and be approved for Dual Wield since it's two distinct weapons.

If what you're seeking is a staff with a blade on each end, though, that can be used with one hand or two and only counts as one weapon.

Grizz

Dual Wielding is most likely in regards to two Keyblades, not two weapons in general. Thats probably why the weapon was accepted. It is with all the Keyblade information afterall.

You're being overly technical.

Uhh, not that I'm aware.

I'll ask Roxas what his intention was for the rule, but on other sites where he and I have been in the past the Dual Wielding rules were almost universally in regards to all dualwielding, not just keyblades.

Grizz

Does this require bumpage? Or is it safe to assume that Roxas was aware all along?

Never assume anything, makes you look like an ass. I've been looking over this, I was too quick to grant you approval. At this time I revoke my previous approval. Dual wielding does not just cover two keyblades. A user is not allowed to use two of any weapon at the same time unless they have the proper post count.

Did you just call me an ass because you didn't fully read the topic? Calling me an ass because I made a conclusion from your given statement? Really?

And that's fine. I will simply get the post count. Though that will be difficult when my topics are closed because an inactive user doesn't approve of my own birthday topic. Sad. It wasn't even to him in the first place too.

I called you that because it's simply the truth...simple as that.
