In Japanese Mythology a Samurai who wields a Hikari no Ken, is a legendary warrior who can not be killed and his sword be not broken. Well, Hikari no Ken, literally translates to Sword of Light, the meaning has changed in the last 100 years from an unbreakable sword to a sword of light, thus the basis for the lightsaber, and often appears in many animes and Japanese games.

All the combat proffesions appear to be extremely influenced by real life which is to be expected. The use of animals in the names of TKA moves is a glaring example. TKA remind me of shaolin monks rather than Ninja but I definitely see the connection. It's probably safe to say that both Jedi and TKA are based on the whole variety of eastern combat styles than just one.

Ah, thats interesting Klodine. I always thought the lightsaber was influenced by the stinger in Lord of The Rings, since thats one of the many influences found in Star Wars, but i see what you're talking about. Hmm. *nods*

Hey, was just wondering. If we're ninja where's the best place to farm pirates?
p.s.- the new emotes proves we're ninja. We can like totally rock and flip out (air guitar) when we kill stuff.

There's a cave around the middle of the map on Lok where pirates are constantly spawning. Plus it's dark and there are close quarters - perfect for a ninja.
