The Shop of Sesael -Open-

[Raphael the Arch-Angel]

I had finished the Wakizashi and displayed it with the katana. Not long after having done so, I was approached by a shinobi of the village. It was my first Customer, and needless to say, I was pleased to see him. When I heard that he had wanted to purchase the new weapons I had crafted, I was delighted. "Very well, sir. I will be glad to get them for you." I said as I walked to the window and took them down.

After a thorough look at the two weapons, I grabbed two new sheaths for the swords and secured them safely. Typing on the register that I had at the shop, I calculated the total for the weapons. "The total amount comes to 14,400 Ryo." I said with a smile as I awaited payment. Upon receipt, I would hand over the items, pleased to have assisted my first customer.

Okuda would count out the money and place the requested amount on the counter, and wait for his swords to be handed to him so that he could leave, he only hoped that they were as good as they seemed in the rumors and the window advertisement that he had seen upon arriving in front of the store where the blades were displayed.

[14,400 ryo from me to tie]

Upon receiving the money, I handed over the items to the man and smiled. "Many thanks for your business. Those two swords were crafted specially. They should be stronger than the normal sword you'd receive from a shop in both offense and defense. May they treat you well. If ever you need an item repaired, crafted, or re-done, feel free to come back here." I said with a slight bow.

Katsu wandered into the shop, looking at the incredibly abundant amount of things on the walls. This man knew how to make STUFF. Eventually Katsu got over his wonder at the interior of the shop and made it to the front desk. Looking about Katsu eventually laid out two slim looking gauntlets with claws extended at the knuckles, a pair of greaves similar to the gauntlets, as well as a huge assortment of arrow parts. There was 170 Broad Point Arrowheads, 220 Basic Shafts, 220 Razor Blade Fletchings, and 50 Mechanical Blade Arrowheads.

Katsu grinned his eleven year old grin at the man behind the desk, "I heard you were a craftsman who could craft anything. I was hoping you could reforge these items to be improve them." Katsu motioned to the Claws and Greaves, "I need these to be as deadly and tough as you can make them!" Katsu continued smiling as he motioned to the various arrowheads next, then the shafts, then the fletchings, "I also need the arrowheads to be deadly, the shafts to be tough, and the fletchings to help increase the range of the overall arrow. If you can do that for me I'll gladly pay your fee, and you can expect me as a repeat customer.

"I looked at your sign and noticed that you can't make the more advanced arrow parts, but if you learn how I'll be back with another commission." Katsu finally finished, looking at the man expectantly. It was a lot of work he had just been offered after all, the man had to have some kind of reaction.

Effect: The long narrow stem or body of a spear or arrow.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: The shaft is the primary structural element of the arrow, to which the other components are attached. Traditional arrow shafts are made from lightweight wood, bamboo or reeds, while modern shafts may be made from aluminum, carbon fiber reinforced plastic, or composite materials. Composite shafts are typically made from an aluminum core wrapped with a carbon fiber outer. The stiffness of the shaft is known as its spine, referring to how little the shaft bends when compressed. Hence, an arrow which bends less is said to have more spine. In order to strike consistently, a group of arrows must be similarly-spined. "Center-shot" bows, in which the arrow passes through the central vertical axis of the bow riser, may obtain consistent results from arrows with a wide range of spines.
Limit: Can be bought at any Hunting Shop.

<OOC Note: Forgive me. I forgot to edit my initial post with the changes from the Christmas TP. It has been changed to reflect what I can craft at this time.>

Upon looking at the items that the other man had laid out in front of me, I looked over each item, sifting carefully over the arrow pieces, and using the tips of my Katar's to help look at them without injuring myself. Pulling out a simple calculator, I started looking over the different items once more, and adding up the prices that it would cost. Once my calculations were completed, I would smile at the man.

"Very well. The total cost comes to 26,312 Ryo with the cost of materials coming to 10,964 Ryo. All I need up front is the Material cost, the remainder can be paid for when you come to pick up your items. Also, forgive me... The sign at the door is in the process of being updated. Here's a smaller copy of what I can craft now." I said as I handed over the list and showed it to the man. "If you have other items to request, feel free to do so."

[Deleted]

Katsu clapped his hands together once, still grinning, "Perfect! I'll be sure to come back later to give you another commission. However, right now I'd better not stretch my funds anymore, my commission for now stays the same, please."


Katsu would then take out the full price of the Commission, carefully laying the money on the desk, "Kumo trusts you enough to be here, so I think I can trust you enough to take the money up front and complete the commission for me. I'll let you get to it, good sir! Goodbye for now, I'll check back in in a few weeks to check your progress, since I doubt this is going to be something you do in a few days."

And with that Katsu would leave the shop skipping, grinning still.

I accepted the items and the payment gratefully. Carefully stowing the items away, I made my way to a shop to make some purchases. In order to do this, I needed to buy another Master Artisan's Kit.

Once returning from the shop, I got straight to work on modifying the Basic Shafts of each of his arrows. I would fully assemble them all when he had returned, but for now, I would just work on each part individually. Katsu had requested that the Basic Shafts receive the Defense modification. So I started to work on each one, slowly and surely making my way through the pile to add an extra layer of defense to each shaft.

Already half of the Arrow shafts were upgraded. They had been reworked by my hand and thus were doing much better now. I inspected each one before setting it aside and moving onto the next one. It was tedious work, but it had to be done. I knew I would be finished soon enough, and then I could move onto the next set. This was quite the undertaking, but it was my first commission, and I wasn't going to let him down.

Most of the arrow shafts were finished with the enhancements, yet there was still one slot of shafts left to go. I knew I would be finished with this in no time as I continued working, attempting to finish up these so I could move onto another arrow part. It was tedious work, but it was my work. This work was something that I loved to do more than anything else.

With the shafts completed, very quickly, I went onto the fletching. Katsu had requested the ability to increase the range on this. I started to work swiftly, tweaking the Fletching just slightly as I started trying to allow them to fly farther than he normally would be able to.

[OOC Note: I required 8 item points to complete the last item, I received 270. 270/8 is 33 (Rounded Down). With 84 hours for the next roll, 84/33 is roughly 2.52 hours needed to wait before I could make my next roll]

A large chunk of the arrowheads had been completed, but there were still quite a few more to go. I knew I was only getting better and better at modifying them, and knew I would have them finished in no time. Work was long and tedious, but I had to keep pushing on. I had to keep doing what was necessary to complete this commission for Katsu. He was the first one after all.

I was over halfway completed with the Arrowheads. It was taking a bit longer than expected, but various things had pulled me away from my work. I knew I had to train myself a little more on weapons before starting Katsu's other weapons, but for now, I continued working with the arrows, hoping that they would be to his liking.
