Tetsubo,
I love your work. I keep looking for ways to print out your weapons as things my NPC's would use and/or treasure for the PC's.
If you don't mind a request, how about a nagamaki? It's kind of a long0ish story. One of my PC's is trying to establish himself as a Samurai. He is currently working for a local lord and he is trying to decide if the lord is noble and honorable enough to serve. By the same token, the lord is trying to determine if the wannabe samurai is suitable as well. In game, everything is working out well. However, rather than use a Katana/Wakzashi combo for the daisho, he uses a nagamaki.
Because everything is going well, the lord is having a masterwork nagamaki crafted (by one of the other PC's actually). It would be most cool to be able to give the player a bonified Tetsubo drawing of a nagamaki, if you feel inspired by it.
OK, more information: The Nagamaki will be crafted from mithril. The PC in question is also psychic, so the nagamaki is being crafted to accept a psychic crystal that the party will probably quest for shortly. They won't know precisely why the lord wants this item, but the PC crafting the nagamaki will have a good idea. As the DM, I want the PC to be able to upgrade the nagamaki by investing it psychically as he advances. The crystal itself will probably be a foot or so in length. Hmm, pretty much like a dorje, from the psionics handbook, I guess.
As I said, if you find the idea to be inspiring, it would be dang cool. If not, then I understand. Either way, I will keep looking for more stuff from you.

Thank you.
No promises but I will think about it. I don't have the Psionics Book. Where would the crystal be mounted? Are you looking for a traditional Japanese design or something with a more fantasy style?
