Yes, that was informative.

About the mod though, I have about half the graphics done at the moment. If my homework doesn't keep me busy this weekend I will finish the work on the graphics and perhaps move onto the actual hard part of writing up the mod.

It's my pleasure.

Swords and their history are a really interesting subject. And if you're going to discuss and understand the Tengu, who were said to be great craftspeople and masters of kenjitsu, then you need to understand the relation of swords in Asia.

By the way, it might also be useful to familiarize one's self with Shugendo. Tengus were believed to be followers of Shugendo, and are usually depicted wearing the yamabushi.

Tengus also tended to carry around fans which had magical power over winds, and could sometimes shapechange into human form. They were also often depicted as vengeful ghosts and spirits of war, chaos, and vanity, but not always as evil beings.

The king of the Tengu is Shojobi. He's said to have the strength of 1000 normal Tengu and is a prominent figure in Shugendo.
