Description

The katana Mamushi, originally belonging to a daimyo in northern Japan, was supposedly inherited by a loyal retainer upon the family's extinction and passed down as an heirloom until eventually finding its way to the New Victoria offshoot of a yakuza syndicate. Having suffered during its colorful history, the blade has been reduced to a mostly ceremonial item - until resonating with the blooming evo powers of a young family member, Yūki, and unlocking its potential as a formidable weapon even by modern standards. As such, while technically owned by the family patriarch that is her grandfather, the sword has essentially become Yūki's property for the sake of utility, rarely being seen outside her reach.
