Nemuranai

Nemuranai are man-made items of exceptional quality that have had the kami within them awakened, either through the skill used in originally creating them or through their association with great deeds. The awakened kami within them allow these items to grant their users fantastic and magical abilities. The items most likely to awaken are weapons and armor, and the most famous and powerful nemuranai are items of this type. Some nemuranai have been tainted by the Shadowlands, and are extremely dangerous to use.

Tsi Xing Guo's Last Gift
After the death of Rosoku ten blades were created as a parting gift of Tsi Xing Guo, the Fortune of Steel. The blades were given to the Keeper of the Five Rings, Asahina Sekawa, and intended to be wielded by heroes to carve a new destiny for themselves. Sekawa disseminated the blades among the clans, where heroes have indeed taken them up and made them their own.
