[edit] Etymology
The Muramasa is named after a Japanese swordsmith, Sengo Muramasa (千子村正), famous for his extremely sharp blades. Murasama is said to have been a brilliant swordsmith, but also rather insane. According to legend, his swords were evil and bloodthirsty to the point that once drawn, it cannot be returned to its scabbard without having first drawn blood, even if it requires forcing the wielder to commit suicide.
