gota say just what kind of a background your manga is gona be coming from for us to give suggestions befitting it...

but anyhow, i really like daggers like the ones gab wields in later episodes of xena (cough*points at name*cough)
but knuckle dusters are nice as well (hard to describe how they look - if youve played EQ before u know)

It does kinda depend on the chracter. I once designed an axe-like weapon for a dwarf I played in Warhammer Fantasy. It's difficult to describe but it was abit a combination between an axe and a sword. *mumbles to self* Oh yeah, that's clear now. [img]graemlins/nono.gif[/img]

Anyways: A very cool weapon FOR A DWARF.

Needless to say, it would not quite fit a sneaking backstabber.

I didn't think up a name for it or attribute any special powers (that would have resulted in a very firm 'no' from the DM ). So can't really help you out there

Well do you want original weapons or weapons from history?

Heres some fairly historical ones that aren't so commonly known.

Katars: Imagine sword stuck onto brass knuckles, thats basically what Katars are, they can get quite big actually. Just look it up on the internet, you should be able to get some good pics.

Baghk Nah (I think thats spelled correctly):
Means claws of the tiger, its basically a metal claw that fits on your hand, the rakes(fingers) coming out from under your fingers.

Yo-yo, well at leasts thats what we call it now.
It was actually an acient weapon that I believe orignated in the philipines, it consisted of a rock tied to a rope, thats right, just a rock on a rope. The ancient hunters would hide in trees and unlike their terribly inadequate previous weapons (big rocks) their new ones were big rocks with ROPES so they didn't have to climb all the way down to retrieve their rock.

If you want more commonly known historical western weapons I know tons of them, if you want an ability though, you would need to describe what your manga is about. You can't really expect us to think up a name, power, and weapon for you if you don't tell us who its going to be for, what time its going to be in, and what the general mood of your manga will be.

After seeing Kill Bill, I have come to the conclusion that a Samurai Sword is the coolest weapon EVER invented... [img]smile.gif[/img]

A quite long chain from yer belt to some über looking blade (probably a dagger, short sword, wakizashi or sumthing... a long blade would get messy). No special powers, but it would probably save any goodguy using it from falling off really tall things by just happening to connect to something (this would of course only happen to the goodguy in the first place if he was wielding the darn thing) [img]tongue.gif[/img]
