Danjho is a fairly uncommon and unusual type of samurai sword that goes outside of the original sleek, slender, and curved design that many samurai had perfected and mastered many years ago. Instead, this sword is very long and large, being 8 feet in length and 2 feet long in width. One would think that such a sword is heavy, and one would be correct. This sword is actually very heavy, weighing around 450 lbs. Though most people can't lift this amount, Ayane can only because of her years of training that has allowed her to develop the sense of balance needed to skillfully use this blade rather than the pure muscle that many would think is necessary. As for the design of Danjho, it is very simple. The handle is black and white and has a straight metallic handguard. The blade itself is only slightly curved to the point where it is hardly noticeable. At the top of the blade and at the side of the bottom are a circle and half-circular shape hole, respectively, that fits one's head perfectly, which allows the user to have physical control and in Ayane's case, mental control as well.

Effects:

Trainable-This weapon cannot be equipped to anyone besides Ayane

Poison Touch- Whenever this weapon inflicts damage to an opponent, the opponent that takes damage becomes afflicted with Poison and will lose 500 Tsukara each turn until the opponent uses only a single dice.

Assassin Slash- A basic slash technique used by Ayane.

History: Ayane was first given Danjho at the age of 7 when she first began her training to master the way of the samurai and of the sword. As years passed, she became more skilled at using the blade, using her mastery of the samurai way in order to learn balance of herself and the sword. When she was 20 years old, she was finally able to wield the sword in battle with slight ease, but because of its weight, prolonged use will cause her to become tired and for this reason, whenever she is traveling she keeps Danjho sealed within her Scroll of Manipulation in one section that belongs to her weapons.
