About this mod
A new great katana paired with throwable shuriken, smoke bombs, and a deflect mechanic, all using Owl's iconic moveset.
- Permissions and credits
A large odachi with pitch black fittings, worn on the back due to its great size. Paired with throwable shuriken and small smoke bombs.
The great blade is unadorned and unremarkable, suited only as a tool to mercilessly cut down the enemy. Shinobi seek to remain in the shadows, but in times of war, they would gladly paint the battlefield in blood.
Great Shinobi Blade
A large black odachi paired with throwable shuriken and small smoke bombs. Dual strength and dex scaling, usable in left hand, and is buffable.

One-Handed: Shuriken Throwing Blade moveset
Two-Handed: Sword moveset
Unique Combat Style
Shinobi are known for their versatility, and this moveset reflects that with many options in combat.
- Backflip off opponents -
After jumping, press jump again to spin into a heavy stomp. If this connects with an enemy, you will kick off them and backflip.
You can throw shuriken midair, activate Raven of the Mists, or rush back in with the sword after landing.
- Blocking replacement -
Blocking is replaced with a timed deflect that reduces damage and stamina loss.
After a deflect, quickly light attack for a fast counter, or heavy attack for a high-stagger option.
This mechanic has been improved from my older mods, and can now deflect very fast repeated attacks
- Heavy attack feints -
Press dodge while charging a heavy attack to feint
Shuriken: Wide 5-shuriken throw
Sword: Smoke bomb that disorients the target
- Backstab -
Sword backstep attack rolls around opponent for a potential backstab
Backstab is a unique animation and quicker than normal
- Switch between forms -
While using shuriken, there are three alternate ways to quickly switch to the sword.
Sprinting heavy attack
Jumping shuriken throw > light attack after landing
Activating Raven of the Mists
Unique Skill: Raven of the Mists
Press L2 to vanish into the mist and quickly evade attack with a directional input, then reappear with a heavy downward slam.
Additional L2 inputs allow for two follow-ups, each serving as both evasion and attack.

Known bugs:
- Backstabbing while two-handing the weapon from the left hand, two-hands your right hand weapon
- Using Raven of the Mists while two-handing the weapon from the left hand, two-hands your right hand weapon
- A bunch of animations were mirrored in ERClipGenerator for this moveset, remember to check this and do them again if you merge or anything, otherwise a lot of shuriken moves will be broken
- DummyPolys 985 and 986 added for back sheathe positions
- Smithbox strips names out of new param rows to keep the filesize down, if you'd like them, just pop into my discord server and ask
- Almost all the owl animations are manually edited or kitbashed by me, feel free to use but please credit :)
