Long Swords

The long sword was developed to give reach to soldiers who otherwise had none. After years and years of dominance by the short sword such as the Gladius and the wakizashi, it was determined that by forging longer blades, the soldier would have a better reach against enemies -- both sentient and wild -- and thus an advantage in combat. These developments lead to such weapons as the glaive, the greatsword, the broadsword, the bastard sword, the samurai-style katana, the nodachi, and other similar weapons. Throughout the ages, these styles have been added on and expanded upon each other, resulting in hybrids and crosses of these styles of weapons to be considered classes of their own.

Long swords in the RPG come in a variety of shapes and styles, and as such they are the broadest applied weapon class available. We don't make exact stipulations to qualify a sword as a 'long sword,' but rather make it a relative issue -- if the weapon is designed to be wielded by two hands (even if the character does not use it as such), the weapon is considered a long sword. For example, Sephiroth from Final Fantasy VII's Masamune is considered a long sword, as is Nero from Devil May Cry 4's Red Queen, along with great cleavers and samurai swords, as these are weapons designed for power rather than grace.

Long swords are considered 5-slot weapons, and make people question the proportions of your body. They are given no special qualities as they are generic weapons.
