[IC] Electric katana
One hundred years ago the Emperor of Lightning ascended to the Imperial Throne and taught the secrets of making kashira - beings of metal and lightning which could battle the enemies of the Land of the Rising Sun where samurai of flesh and blood could not. In this new world, the kashira would be his new samurai. By his decree, the kashira and their puppeteers must wander the country and defend the edges of the land from dark and wicked forces. The kashira rightly see their tayu as fathers, but will their puppeteers be willing to sacrifice their creations for the good of the Imperial Throne?
In Electric Katana, each player takes on the roll of both a robotic kashira and its human creator. This game is not only a struggle between the kashira and terrible monsters, but also between the kashira and its tayu, between the creation’s love for its maker and the mask of indifference that the creator must maintain.
