  • STUDY: You carefully examine a ceremonial windsteel rapier inlaid with iniskim scales, but see nothing special.
  • LEAN: Leaning onto the rapier, you allow your weight to bow the weapon downward, lowering yourself in a smooth and fluid motion. Shifting your weight a bit, you allow the weapon to propel you back to an upright position, snapping the rapier to a readied position.
  • PUSH: You slowly lower your rapier, resting it at a slight outward angle just inches from the ground. Keeping your body perfectly still, you stare stoically ahead and await the perfect moment to strike.
  • SPIN: With a casual flick of your wrist you send the rapier spinning straight up into the air, holding your hand out to catch it hilt-down onto your waiting palm. There it remains, spinning vertically, the blade flashing as it turns. After a moment, the rotation of the weapon slows, so you allow your hand to slide evenly down the grip to stop the weapon -- perfectly balanced -- in your hand.
  • TURN: You toss the rapier gingerly into the air, watching as the hilt rolls evenly forward. At just the right moment, you snatch the weapon from midair. Pleased with the newfound stability and grip you have on your weapon, you can't help but flash a confident grin.
  • WAVE: You turn your shoulder outward and give a crooked, cocky smile. Tilting your head very slightly to the side, you extend your rapier outward. You nod confidently and wave the weapon inward towards yourself in a 'come hither' motion.
