Here are the weapons and armor favored by characters in the game.
----
Sundered Promise 
<tt>Artifact •• 
Speed +7 Accuracy +3 Damage +8L Defense +2 Rate 5 
Requires: Strength 2; Commitment: 5</tt>

Starmetal Daiklave, the weapon of [[/Rook|Rook]], Chosen of Battles.

This is an ancient but unremarkable Daiklave. Created During the Primordial War it was crafted in haste to arm the Exalted as they faced off against the Original Creators of the World. As such it is an incredibly functional weapon with little aggrandizement or flash to it, yet it’s edge is keen and the grip sturdy and worn. Forgotten by many, the blade was forged from the Lesser Elemental Dragon Gerhedesh, who sought to betray the Gods and in return earn for himself the gratitude of the Yozis. Instead he was cast out of the Celestial Heirarchy and forged into the Daiklaive.

After the primordial wars, the exalted had time and inclination to outfit themselves in a grandeur more befitting of their position and desires. So it was that many serviceable, but plain, weapons and such were set aside in favor of more beautiful and powerful items. Sundered promise was locked away in a vault in the Crimson Panoply in the event it’s service might be called for again.

At the end of Rook’s initial training, he was offered his predecessors Starmetal Serpent Sting Staff, Branch of Ygg. He declined, having not chosen to pursue either of the martial arts where that weapon would be useful, Violet Bier of Sorrows Style or Mantis Style. Instead he respectfully requested a weapon more fitting to his current talents as opposed to his shard’s previous host’s. He was “rewarded” with Sundered Promise, and was made somewhat aware of its history. (At least as much as has been revealed here.) What he does not know is that the original Sidereal who wielded it was the first host of his shard, and this is why his shard does not object to the Daiklave’s use.

Threadcutter 
<tt>Artifact ••• 
Speed +9 Accuracy +4 Damage +6L Defense +1 Rate 4 
Requires: Strength 2; Dexterity 3; Commitment: 6</tt>

Starmetal and black Jade Reaper daiklave, with Starmetal and white Jade scabbard, the weapon of [[/Hikaru|Hikaru]], Chosen of Endings. Threadcutter is a long, thin blade intended to be used in the draw-cut style of swordmanship. The scabbard doubles as a parry aid (counts as a buckler, +1 difficulty to hit with melee) and also reduces the wound penalties of its bearer by 1.

Pause and Resume, Starmetal Hearthstone Bracers

These are a pair of starmetal bracers forged from the disgraced twin spirits who were once charged with the fertility of the lands in and around Thorns. A pair of wild and capricious godlings, they had a number of enemies and few friends. They lost all political power in the hierarchy at the fall of Thorns to the Mask of Winters, and were summarily cast out at the behest of some of those they had annoyed in the past. The Bureau of Destiny took advantage of this and moved them into the starmetal production line. However, to avoid the appearance of having arranged for such a happening, the elder sidereals quickly decided to give the newly formed bracers to a young sidereal, who turned out to be [[/Rook|Rook]].
----
Praise and Elation, Starmetal Hearthstone Bracers

These bracers were a gift from Axeria Shay to [[/Carodin|Carodin]], shortly before she gave up on his tuition. In a last ditch attempt to give him gracefulness she provided him with these artifacts from her own possessions. Both are fine-filigreed starmetal which swirl from the wrist to elbow in a shimmering pattern of astrological houses.

Heavenly Thunder Leaves 
<tt>Artifact •• 
Speed +2 Accuracy +2 Damage +2L Defense +4 Rate 6 
Requires: Dexterity 3, Martial Arts 3; Commitment: 2 each</tt>

Adds +1 die to any Performance rolls if they are used as part of the performance. Other abilities as per Castebook: Zenith.

These are the favored weapons of [[/Solars|Frika Einzangu]].
