This weapon is a multiple blade sword. That sword is at the same time a knife a sword and a double hand sword. The form of the sword depending to how much blood it has (5), you can increase the blood by hitting enemies making slash damage or hitting himself with the sword slashing you (1-3-4). Increasing blood you also increase the slash damage you inflict to the enemies and when you make a particular number of slash damage to you or your enemies your weapon evolve in the following stage (2).Evolving the weapon changes his basics stats.

[Makor11]

Name Sakara

Faction: Tenno 

Type/Stance Blade and Whip (i.e Mios or Lacera)

Damage type Puncture

Brief description: Bring the power of a star upon your enemies with bestowing health apon your self with this war torn blade and whip while  .

(Sakara roughly translates to point of a star) I wanted Sakara to heavily rely on the hook. I see in the Lacera and the Mios that the hook does not do much other than pull and capture the enemy. I want the hook to deal a fair amount of damage and be used to swipe/whip at the enemy. I want Sakara to be modded to a crit, status hybrid. Sakara would have life steal but in return would leave you more vulnerable to elemental damage. Id like the red to be more like a Chroma red and the blue to be more like a Wukong blue.  I'd like to thank my friend Ansel with helping me get the idea and help with the drawing.

accidentally removed picture, but they should be returned to their rightful spot.

[stickboy918]

FACTION: Grineer

BRIEF DESCRIPTION: This is a heavy blade chainsaw that is based on a Chinese guan dao (sword-spear hybrid). The handle retracts when the weapon is holstered and the chain does not move (obviously :P ). When the weapon is drawn, the handle extends and the chain starts moving. When channeling, the weapon will start to smoke like it's about to overheat (but not explode) and each blade on the chain will glow as well as some parts of the machine and handle. Attacking will give a sound of a chainsaw everytime the blade swings. A charged attack that lands a successful hit will guarantee a Blast proc and same when slamming the ground. 

Recommended stance can be Cleaving Whirlwind or Tempo Royale. Recommended weapon name is Dahas, which means violence.

Faction: orkin

Name of weapon: gollidonku

Stance: sythe grip stances

Description: Made in the orkin era. This blade spins in the hands of any tenno who uses it giving the gollidonku innate slash damage with every cut. This weapon reaps souls of any enemy that has been killed. The black and blue ribbon were taken from orkin queens to show their hatred for the enemy .

[(PSN)ginjer_ninjer]

Faction: Infested

Grip Type: Hammer that Switches into a Greatsword upon slam attack and back to hammer after a short time.

Description: Slamming the weapon in hammer form detaches the hammerhead (pod), switching the weapon from hammer form to greatsword form, changing the main damage type from Impact to Slash, and changing the stance mod from the hammer stance to the greatsword stance. The pod then stays where you slammed, and spawns three to four maggots (like the Nidus maggots) that stuns enemies they latch onto. After about 30 seconds of no use, the hammerhead (pod) will reappear on the weapon.

Really, REALLY wish Dark Split Sword had the two stance slots like this.

Just make the second slot reward no mod points and let us switch stances with alt-fire or something.

So after scanning the picture it became extremely blurry and the wording is very difficult to read now. So I'll just jot it down here.

Here we have the Stella Mattino.

Faction: Tenno

Grip Type: One handed Machete/Short Sword (i.e. Nami Solo)

Description: Return to the Medieval Ages with this classic morning star. Carrying with it a high impact and puncture stat, this weapon will decimate all in its path. Accompanying this mace are two new stances that appropriately display the archaic and primeval nature of said instrument. Iron age will provide the user with short bludgeoning blows while Cannon Ball transforms the mace into a weighted whip, allowing for much faster speed and range while still dealing massive amounts of damage.

Weapon Name: Kuralga

"Kuralga was used by grineer pathfinders specialized in tracking to hunt wild creatures and travel faster in jungles that had never been visited. The heat that Kuralga emitted caused the paths to burn like lava. For centuries miners used these paths in the jungle."

Faction: Grineer

Grip Type: Dual Blades

Description:  Kuralga gathers kinetic energy in its quartz-mercury part and transforms it into heat. Thanks to its small engine placed on it, Kuralga gains %5 attack speed with every 5 hits and the kinetic energy accumulated. Attack speed can reach %20 maximum. If you charge attack at Kuralga's maxed attack speed level, it sends forth a ray-like heat with high damage to enemies and the attack speed is reset.

Damage Type: Slash & Heat

WOW. Awesome!

so i dont have any feedback so i guess my entry is okay yay :) i guess i didnt miss anything

[(XBOX)Shadowy Reaper]

(lore) During the great war with the infested and the aftermath of the Black Beast, a legendary Tenno unbound by the Lotus and the other forces that pull them like puppets, stood tall above the hoards. She was a whirlwind of death mowing down thousands of the infested abominations with her swords alone. Her name has been lost to us but her legend lives on in these blades. The blades, that held back the tempestuous flood of the infested, long thought lost to the void have been found. Crafted by the hands of that legendary warrior using lost arts, Ancient and Orokin techniques, these are the legendary blades known as Agony and Oblivion. They seethe with virulent toxins and acidic hatred as they seek out their old master. In the right hands they are devastating to all forms of life. Agony was crafted to instill toxins deep into the flesh of any it strikes. Oblivion was crafted to coat the enemy in a flesh eating virus. Together nothing could stop the onslaught of the weapons. once even scratched by these blades it was only a matter of time before the victim succumbed to its wounds and lay as smoldering heap of mess. We have found these blades. Or maybe these blades have found us. It's only a matter of time before their previous master comes searching for her allies.

(Handles used are twin skana handles. Faction tenno/orokin)

Agony has a chance to inflict the toxin status where Oblivion has a chance to inflict virus. using twin skana handles and and unknown metal alloy for the blades these twins make for fierce allies in the face of overwhelming odds

grammatical fixes, added faction

[Raunek-Ka]

Name: Dimachaer (Latin: di- dual + machairi knife)
Faction: Tenno
Brief Description: Basically a split-sword (heavy blade/dual swords depending on equipped Stance type), but uses more horizontal hold in heavyblade mode. And yeah, if you are getting some Klingon vibes from it, you are right, although it has gone far from the inspiration source. Also check the writing.

Also it is a Tennogen-ready 3D model which is now uploaded: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=894109800

Faction:  

Infested (Blood species) i.e: Hirudo, Hema

Grip:  

Tonfas

Description:  

Rumored to be a pair of infested Kronen during the Old War. This living monstrosity may seem harmless at first sight, but once paired with a master, chaos WILL occur. It is said that this creature looks out for its master in order to keep the bond intact, but its unfortunate victims will have to look out for IT.

Gimmick concepts:  

  Reveal hidden contents

• Eyes open when equipped, much like War's mechanic.
• Eyes open even when holstered when the user reaches below 50% health, as it "looks out for its master".
• Creates an AoE of spikes when slammed, much like Virulence.
• Each enemy hit by the spikes restores a bit of health, much like Hirudo's passive.
• When disarmed by a Drakh Master, the weapon will create an AoE of spikes until it's picked up again. (but won't restore health, because it's not with its master)

It would be really cool to have a nikana and a short nikana. In the past some Samurai's have used one long and one short katana at the same time. And it fits the games concept too.

The idea is lovely and it would probably torn out great but I just can't not correct you: the samurai didin't use the short blade in combat. I support the idea tho. Sounds amazing.

I hope this works.  I am posting an entry for consideration in the melee weapon contest.  I hope you like.  A little different and hopefully fun to use. The coloring is kinda grab out of the box random, as I am completely colorblind, so if they are a bit weird.....sorry.
