[Fairport] Shuang Gou Hook Swords
=======================
Real Life History and Specs:
Type of weapon: Sword (typically dual wielded)
Origin: China
Time period: 722 BC - 222 BC
The Shuang Gou (which translates to 'hook sword',) sometimes called a Hu Tou Gou (tiger-head-hook,) was an early Chinese weapon usually found in the northern areas of China, though some examples have been found in southern China as well. The weapon was almost exclusively a civilian weapon designed for defense, though the rarity of original examples hint they were not used very often and few people were effectively trained to wield them in combat. They are almost always, however, used dual wield and most modern Kung Fu martial art schools teach with this method of use. Records show that the weapon could be used effectively against mounted foes, (often attacking horses legs with the hooked tip of the sword,) and because two swords were used at a time the swords were perfect for deflecting blows while attacking. Shuang Gou swords have even appeared in tv, movies and videogames such as used by Kabal in Mortal Kombat 3, and Shulien in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

Function / Command
**PLEASE MAKE SURE BOTH SWORDS ARE WORN***
**Please note, if you wish to damage, make sure you are enabled in damage mode; ie: if you are in push mode switch to damage by using the 'enable damage mode' command. There are three settings for damage once you have enabled this mode: low, high, fatal. Damage is determined by the mass of your enemy. That's right, the larger or smaller your enemy avatar's mass alters the amount of damage one can do to them in a Linden damage zone. On average, however, low does about 7-13% damage on a hit, high does 30-40% on a hit, and fatal does 80-100% damage on a hit.
Enable damage mode: damage
Set low on damage mode: low
Set high on damage mode: high
Set fatal on damage mode: fatal
Enable practice mode (does 0 damage): practice
