The Blades

The Blades are a group of true warriors in every sense of the word. Embracing many things that do battle. The heat the moment of killing an enemy, exchanging cups with friends for brotherhood or sisterhood. They are warriors perfecting the art of combat, many of them are considered to be masters of it. Others are legends of the art of taking life. But in this place that isn't regretted but celebrated. Their tradition and long-standing goals were underway long ago. The halls of triumph have been closed for a long time waiting for a proper host. They are a neutral faction but aren't frightened to cross blades with stronger ones. They are without a doubt the truest embodiment of warriors. The Blades have their defenses and have selected their next leader. Our blades are ready to face the strongest enemies. Our shields are ready to block the heaviest of blows for our shield brothers and sisters. Is your resolve strong enough to join the Blades?


This group was founded a long time before the reveal of its inception. They've hidden in the shadows of every time period. Unseen elements within the world since before the Feudal Era of Japan. They went before the building of the great city of the Roman Empire. Battles engulfed the land a time of war unlike any other was seen. To many in this organization, it was the golden age of learning. To find an education in war. To learn and be able to greatly improve the prowess of their overall skills. Many of the members of this unspoken club were strong. But not enough to through the shackles of conforming around them. So the original members of the First Blades were merely keepers of War. Everything one could imagine about the forgotten arts. All left into the hands of these people who were writing it down. Making a Codex of War and the best ways to wage it on all. Such people as Sun Tzu and others were members of this illustrious group. but that was much later all of the legendary warriors played a part. But none of them had the bravery to push it. To push the button and take a chance at forming the Blades Officially. They act as though a secret even among secrets in the world. The Masons and Illuminati aren't even sure if the Blades truly exist in the world. Little do they know their ranks have been infiltrated heavily to the highest levels. The Blades waited for someone who could forge them into what they needed to be. To pull back the curtain on ages of knowledge. To officially bring about that which all of them waited for. Tsubasa Unabara was the man to press that button and reveal the truth. Time had finally begun for them to begin in all. The Blades a secret which did not kill it's brothers in battle but offered glorious combat. Allowing fighters to fight till exhaustion in private to practice and perfect their great skills. The Blades never got involved in the world as the battle was all that mattered till now.


This position is the leader of the organization. The one who bravely pulled the curtain back. Allowing the blades to reveal their sharpened edge to the world. The organization which seemed minor at best. Truly ranked in the thousands making them a very powerful weapon of the world. Only those who have bravery but cannot seem to fit elsewhere. Who's lives our conflict but bring something to it are fit for this position. They must benefit the craft of warfare and bring something never before brought to it all. The Emperor isn't something like a pampered doll like others. He is a warrior a ruler fit to rule a band of warriors. These beings are meant for bringing about the Legendary battles. He will be able to create and bring about the legendary super weapons the Blades have. The Valkyrie answer to this person alone above all others. The Emperor of Blades is a symbol that the future is coming with teeth and claws at the ready.


These are the Emperor's personal bodyguards. Devoted to him without fail they will defend him or die to try. The Four Kings are known to be extremely skilled and brutal fighters. Capable of clashing with the best any organization can toss at them. But the secret of the Kings isn't that they are strong just as fighting alone. When the Four Kings gather to fight as one even the best warriors cannot fight them. Four of them can beat a thousand with little trouble or effort. Defeating the enemies who dare raise a blade to the Emperor. That is the duty and their resolve is something great. While these Four do not generally get involved in the world's folly. They on occasion join the fray and defeat people to protect their Emperor. In terms of rank, the Four Emperors are a private Echelon that answer to but one person. While they can give orders to the other ranks they generally don't do so.


They are the specialist of the Blades, they are lead by the Leader of Seven. He is known to be a capable and respected Leader by the other six. This group is loyal to the Blades and it's Emperor without question. However, they are front line specialists. Capable of getting results with only seven men that armies cannot even begin to attempt. The Band of Seven while not always together each member is a capable killing machine. Capable of producing genocide with little trouble. When war is declared they are sent out to begin the battle without remorse or anything. The Band of Seven stand in the path of battle and rejoice in its bloody glory. Without equals, they are Seven of the finest combatants to ever exist in the world. The Band of Seven is all bound together by a loyalty to one another that goes beyond anything understood. They are brothers and sisters of the battlefield often referring to one another as such. Their relationship and nature of how they carry themselves is as a family.



It's true the Blades are warriors who fight with honor and pride. But they are masters of the battlefield. Assassins play just as big a role in the world as anything else. The Black Hand is the Blade's personal assassins, they act as a destructive force in the Organization. Trained personally now by the Unabara in the art of the silent kill. These are perhaps the greatest Assassins of any organization to date. The Unabara's expertise and specializing in the field have made them real pros. The Black Hand is founded mostly of their core members allowing it to become a deadly fighting force. While not all agree with the method of them. They can't deny the results that they manage to bring about. The Black Hand is a deadly and formidable part of The Blades. They are a piece of the puzzle of why the blades are successful.



These are the foot soldiers of the organization. However, they aren't like the other ones you find in other places. These are all extremely skilled fighters. Capable of going toe to toe with some of the better fighters. While their numbers aren't as impressive as some others. The Einherjar are extremely effective fighters capable of bringing about the demise of foolish. Most foot soldiers will not be able to contend with them. While they are better than average they represent what the Blades stand for. Training people to the peak and letting them find their own way. The Blades have always believed one's combat education is about finding your own path. The Einherjar are on the edge of becoming something great. They have the potential to become so much more than anyone else could imagine. Becoming truly fierce combatants. Just because they have no rank these beings shouldn't be underestimated in any form or fashion.



The beings who answer to only one the Emperor of Blades. These aren't creatures that most can understand. Designed for combat at a high level while they do function as a defensive force. They are part of the offense at times as well. Flying down from the sky and killing ten men at a time with their weapons. The Valkyrie serve as brutal beings. But also as extremely compassionate as in legend they grab fallen warriors. Bringing them back to the main base at extremely high speeds. These creatures can fly quickly as a rocket going into space as they were designed for such. But it goes far beyond that with the winged warrior women. They are fierce duelists and deadly fighters as their ranks aren't just filled with the special beings. Some female warriors also fill the ranks of the Valkyrie. They are fairly powerful and can communicate with the machine ones without much trouble. The Valkyrie serve as the gatekeepers to the Emperor's chambers and as a secondary guard.




The Grey Wardens of the Blades they are the honorable warriors. The true fighters who are capable at all levels. While this group is generally known for killing monsters. They are good at it in general but live under a very strict motto. In War, Victory, in Peace Vigilance, in death Sacrifice. That is the code of reason they live by and they are loyal to the Emperor before anything else. Because he himself helped them with the Code. The Grey Wardens are some fo the most fierce and devoted warriors. They are the best trackers capable of trailing monsters for miles. Under any conditions, they may encounter. Each of them are trained to a fierce edge. The Blades treat them similar to Knights in a way but moreover they are monster hunters. Specialist in defending or going after different monsters. Their education is taught from books and experts on hunting down monsters. The Unabara themselves were very handy as assassination sometimes does go this route. However only a few members of the clan were real specialists.


The main base while not established yet it's design and overall structure have been decided. Valhalla Citadel is a place where they gather at the Asgardian Front. However, this place is made and designed over the many years by several different inventors and people. Its structure is far from an easy thing for anyone to compose. While other such things exist within the place, the Citadel a rather impressive structure serves as HQ for them. The design of everything has been built to defend even the fiercest of attacks from enemies who would attempt to come in. The HQ also houses the War Machines which were designed with the purpose to destroy. However, most of them are used for training recruits at this point as each one has been named after a Norse creature. While the Blades is small it's ranks and power lay in its mastery of battle. The HQ presents this perfectly.



The Seekers were designed in a way to be leaders for those beneath the Four Kings. But in truth their task is far more difficult. They are tasked with the job of information gathering and intelligence overall. They are meant to sniff out anything that seems out. But the Seekers serve another purpose as well. They are the Law of the Blades. They are meant to keep peace among the members. Those not within the Four Kings deal with them. The Seekers do have a leader but they like others only operate in five man cells. This makes them highly effective in ways you cannot imagine. Each Seeker is special and completely different from the creatures one would be used to seeing.

I'll go ahead and stamp this, she'll be the Third King.

This has been updated and another character added.

Character Name: Takae Tachibana
Character App: LINK
Desired Position: Band of Seven

I'll approve this and put her as the 5th Band of Seven member.
