Iwatōshi

The Thousandth Blade

A naginata famously wielded by Musashibō Benkei . Its name means "Rock-Melter." While it is not as fine in craftsmanship as many of Japan's treasures, centuries of steady use have imbued it with character and soul.

Quality: Iwatōshi is considered a +10 quality naginata. Attributes in parentheses ( ) indicate the weapon's value with quality factored in. Greatest of 999: Iwatōshi has seen more battle than most other weapons combined. Its repeated victories have instilled this otherwise unremarkable blade with a sense of acumen and veterancy that overpowers less-experienced warriors. When wielded against any weapon that has proved victorious against fewer than 999 opponents, Iwatōshi grants its wielder a +20 bonus to Attack and Block.
