I think the newest version of your sword sounds cool, and I like that you're helping out ninja-tos because I always wanted there to be some good ones.

I had an idea for your vampire-killing bolts based on what that one guy in this thread said about it being forgable. Why dont you make it a crossbow instead and give it a limited use (like wand charges) of the special crossbow bolts ? Eg a special ability that could be only used 3-5 times but had a high chance of working (maybe 75% chance on hitting for it to kill any vampire). I think it would be better to have a very limited amount of powerful shots, and the player has to choose carefully when to use them, rather than just always being able to fire these bolts, but with a lower chance of success. For that matter, I suppose it wouldnt have to be a special ablity of the crossbow after all, you could just make there only be 5 of these bolts.
