OOC: I must go away for now and will be back tommorow morning. I leave my character on autopilot and you can duel him if you want (write his actions as well as yours). I'm okay if you defeat him - it's a friendly competition and he has new weapons.
Noctis made his way over to Zhu. "You mentioned a family, back on Edo?" Noctis asked, desiring to know more of the Astartes' chapter.
OOC: gonna check now character sheets, etc. to double check every single character and organization etc.
Shin Zhu stopped his practice, and wiped the sweat off his forehead from his concentration before turning his smile to Noctis once more. "Why yes wolf brother, my family is the comrades that I have back on Edo. But I'm assuming you mean my former family?" Without waiting for an answer, the Ronin continued, "before my selection into the ranks of the Ronins, I hailed from a long line of warriors from one of the great dynasties that used to rule the planet. You see, Edo was engulfed in civil war, each territory on the planet was controlled by a major warrior lineage, only after the arrival of Jaghatai's Brotherhoods was there unification in the entire planet. After their arrival, all inter-clan warfare stopped. Yet the White Scars needed an established way of filtering out recruits, so every year all the different clans would send their best warriors to a tournament, where hundreds of duals and war games would ensue, mimicking the wars of old. A selection of winners would be then inducted into further testings by the White Scars and hopefully inducted into their ranks. I won that very tournament on the 14th year of my birth."
Tsu'had pulls Valonox to his feet, "Please I am but a simple warrior, there is no need to bow." He says seemingly embarrassed.
"i am sorry brother but our chapter master told us to always bow at our fathers even if they are simple Now whats the news of the finds of our father Vulcan"
"No quite as I do now," unbelievably, Shin Zhu's smile got wider, "Razagone, Osorenai and Jima were gifts from my mother to me on the 10th year of my birth. When I was accepted into the Ronins, they were reforged by our Forge Masters into Astartes weapon. It is tradition for this to occur, as all recruits into our chapter have their own blade before their ascension. The weapons, however, needed to be resized properly for a fully grown astartes, and even the original swords were... complicated to make, to say the least. To reforge them into these masterpieces is no small feat, and the Forge Masters of Edo have earned much respect on Edo for their ability to do so. These blades are only usually reforged once more after, when a Hohei is promoted to become a Gunso, where the Forge Master will give the weapons a powerfield as well, turning them into power weapons. That is why all blades from the Ronin possesses a name, even that of a new Hohei, for it is usually be passed on for generations within their former families before finding a place in our chapter."
"And what of your time within the chapter? Any battles of note?" Noctis was beginning to like this marine. He seemed well rounded and appeared to know his craft on the battlefield well.
