The search for greater skill and power is one of the oldest, and most universal endeavors known, something that transcends race and heritage. Whether blade, knowledge, or honed abilities put into practice, the desire to grow and improve is principle among every civilization and people. With the discovery of the powers of the arcane, new hopefuls have flocked to it's study to try to unlock secrets that will give them a heightened advantage.
Among the most difficult approaches to this melding of disciplines is that of the Arcane Blade, a name given to those who seek to combine the skills of the warrior with those of the arcanist in equal shares, compromising neither. Aspirants to this path come from all walks of life, the trend running towards mages seeking out the skills of various martial disciplines, although the reverse is not entirely unheard of. Neither path seems to give advantage, though, and many are those who burn themselves out struggling to find the path.
Those few who succeed in discovering the secrets to this discipline are generally viewed as people of potential, and are heavily sought out for their power, skill, and knowledge as well as as potential tutors, if they could be coaxed to share their training. The truth though, is, beyond sheer grit and determination, these individuals possess some mysterious factor, whether it be a trait of character, a quirk of personality, or even a gifted aptitude beyond even the ranks of talented warriors and arcanists who fail to achieve what these few do, and are able after many months of dedicated study, to channel their arcane magic through their weapons of choice, melding the two to some degree.
