1) INTRODUCTION
===================================================
Hello, my name is Victor Reisman. If you have purchased any other one of my blades, then you know its quality work. I work to make these blades the best they can be for a very reasonable price. Its because of you I build and script and animate. But enough about that and on to the main product. The Valkyrie blade is modeled after a roman gladius/shield combo. The very design implies elegance with deadly precision, and that is what I bring to you. The very soul of a warrior.

===================================================
2) FEATURES
===================================================
So let’s get to the good stuff, like what this thing can do. Well, I wanted it to be unique, not too realistic, and fun to wield. By double tapping jump, you can perform a sky Jump, and can continue to jump by constantly double tapping (If you’re really good, you'll never touch the ground. It’s also a fun method of travel). You can dash in any 4 main directions by tapping that direction twice. The obsidian blade can block projectiles by holding down either PgDwn or C (this throws up a temporary shield, and you can tell your blocking from the animation). This sword can also do combos, but more on that later. Finally, it has a special move, custom animations, and sound effects, all made by me.

===================================================
3) HOW TO USE
===================================================
The Valkyrie blade has two stages, a ready to fight stance, and a fighting stance. When you draw the blade (click on the sheath and make sure you are wearing both the sheath and the blade) you go into the ready to fight stage. In this stage you may sky jump, dash, and block. When you click and hold the left mouse button on the ground or nearly anywhere, you go into the fighting stance. In this stance, you cannot move, but you can attack and block. To get out of the fighting stance, simply release the left mouse button. You can also click on the sword in your hand when it’s drawn, to get a menu on which mode you would like to put the sword in; Regular or RP (the default is Regular).

The controls (in fighting stance):
W , forward : tap to do a single slash
A, left : tap to do a left swipe
S, backwards : tap to do a kick
D, right : tap to do a right swipe

Combos:
When in the fighting stance, you may tap a direction more than once, to pull off a combo. Each direction has three stages of moves leading for a multitude of combos.
Ex: W,S,W -> slash, warriors knee, valkyrie wings
D,W,A -> right sever, run-through, warriors grace

Special:
To do the special, Simple press PgUp or E while in the fighting stance.
Immortal Protection (Passive): Hold the sword above your head and yell out to the gods as they grant you a blessing. Makes you invincible to all projectile-based attacks for 20 seconds (You'll see a 'bubble' surrounding you). This special has a 30 second cool down period before you can re-do the effect.

===================================================
3.1) BLADE LOCK
===================================================

This is a new feature in all the blades in version 3.0. The blade lock happens when two blades from the 'Blade' series clash with each other at the same time. Both players are then flung into a frenzy of slashes. During this animation, both players must rapidly tap the W/Up Key. Whoever taps this key the fastest is the winner of the Blade Lock. The looser of the lock is then thrown back and stunned for 3 seconds. If both players do not reach the required count, then both players are flung back and stunned. There is a possibility that both players win the lock, in which case, no one is thrown back and stunned. A Blade Lock has a cool down time of 30 seconds before it can happen again.

===================================================
4) COMPATIBILITY
===================================================

The blade uses SL damage, so most combat systems will be affected. I have also added the RP mode so it will do sensors instead of rezzing a prim, this is mainly for most RP Sims and DCS. I have tested DCS, FFRC, and I have had great success. This sword WILL NOT work with C:SI, you've been warned.
