Right, I've never tried this thing before, and I have a good character in mind to produce what could be a dazzling duel. So here goes my character:
Name: Rueko Tensuki
Age: 30
Weapons: "Meteor Sting": this weapon consists of a small yet heavy lead blade attached to three rings which are themselves attached to a tough, five foot long rope. At the other end lies a smallish lead ball, smaller than a fist. All in all, it's a mixture between a meteor hammer and a dart rope. Rueko wields it stunningly well. He also has two wakizashis tied to the back of his belt.
Looks: Rueko stands just under 6 feet tall, with a nice, even build and well-toned muscles. He bears little to no scars. The ronin's eyes are a deep shade of blue, and his hair is dark black, like a raven, falling down just above his shoulders. He keeps his fringe tied back, out of his eyes. He has a small stubble, but generally keeps shaved. He wears a dark blue dõgi with gold motifs, with a set of back leather ribs going around his waist for protection, and a small black hakama, stopping at the knees, over brown pants. He wears black padded shoes and leather, ribbed gaiters for protection. His left forearm is covered in a very thick leather-covered steel bracer which, due to its grooves can hold his meteor sting around it. Rueko wears simple thick black fabric gloves on his hands. His dõgi sports a hood which he keeps up almost all the time, and during "professional" work he wears a brown leather mask over his face, stopping at his eyes. His dual wakizashis are sheathed at the back of his thick brown belt, which holds a number of pouchs holding various tools used by the ninjas.
[A bio isn't needed is it ? We're just gonna beat the sh*t out of each other that's all ...]
The setting will be a large deserted, ex-firework storing warehouse, how we both end up there will be up to you to decide. So, remember that this is in a Chinese/Japanese setting, with only a hint of magic, and we're still in the middle ages, so no guns and stuff, okay ? Hope to see you soon !

Name: Ledelius Kaiser
Age: 26
Weapon: 1 Black Katana (Composition: Steel)
Looks: Standing at exactly 6'1, Kaijou sports a black akidogi with a small, open chested top. He wears tabi shoes, made almost entirely of rubber, with tiny pin holes on the sides. He is not skinny, though at the same time, not overly muscular, but has an athletic, lean composition.
As Ledelius made his way to the center of the abandoned storehouse, the echoes from his steps reverberated back and forth, throughout the entire building. Each step produced a light cloud of dust around his ankles, which moved this way for some time as he progressed through the building before settling, unnoticeably, in a new position.
The early morning sun shone through the windows, giving the room, though dirty and abandoned, a look of solace. Peace, calm. It was surely a deceiving picture, as only moments later it would become the center of a two man war. Walking by each pane, through which the sun shone from above, revealed the sickly paleness the warrior's skin. It also revealed a nasty set of crimson eyes, which, as always, contrasted the calm face of the man with an eternal hunger for death.
The pale blond strands of hair, perched atop his head stood up straight near the back and hung forward slightly. Not quite sitting on his forehead, but not rigid enough to stand up straight like the rest of his hair.
There was one last echo, which bounced around for some time, its sound slowly evanescing to nothingness. Ledelius's steps had come to a halt. Lifting his right hand, bending his arm at the elbow, he wrapped his fingers around the leather straps wrapped around the hilt of his blade. He inhaled and exhaled audibly, echoing ominously about the building.
He was ready.

((Let's go, may the best ronin win !))
His opponent had finally arrived. Rueko, crouching on the second floor, watched him slowly advance, the pale light given off by the morning sun and the pare lanterns here and there of the warehouse bathing the building in little light. Dust covered everything, and cobwebs were hung on every corner, every available slot. Ledelius, for he was called this, placed his hand on the handle of his katana, visibly ready to strike at anything.
Slowly, Rueko let his Meteor Sting slide off of his bracer, slowly turning it in a small arc in his right hand, the lead blade singing as it delicately cleaved the air it passed through, it's song reverberating throughout the whole warehouse. At once, he performed a quick motion of his arms, and the turning blade was replaced with the heavy lead ball, turning more quickly now. The ronin rised, only his weapon making a sound. He jumped, heading towards his ennemy for a quick kill. Tensuki twizzled in mid-air keeping the motion of his weapon as it prepared to smash down onto the warrior's skull. Now, a window shone its light on Rueko, and he was completely visible, covered in a layer of dark golden light.

As his gaze apparently rested on the plain wall 20 or so feet before him, Ledelius's concentration was elsewhere. He figured his opponent would already be in the place, and if this was so, then he would be hiding somewhere. This was a perplexing situation. Had his opponent been worth fighting, then he would, no doubt know how to conceal his presence and, more importantly...his strike.
When his opponent stood, alert as he was, Ledelius's eyes moved diagonally up and to the right to his opponent's position, then he heard the whistle of the monstrosity of a weapon he possessed. The golden light that covered this man, who called himself Rueko, was nothing that left Ledelius flabbergasted, for magic was nothing he hadn't dealt with before. It vanished and reappeared as he streaked through the beams of sunlight through the windows.
As he twirled around in the air, his weapon's trajectory wasn't very distinguishable, so Ledelius quickly moved backwards at nearly the same speed as his opponent in order to avoid being struck by the lead ball or slashed by the lead blade. Still, his hand rested on the hilt of the katana, not yet drawn.

Ledelius stepped back, katana still not drawn, as Rueko's meteor head smashed the ground, crushing the wooden planks beneath and revealing yet more dust and dirt. "Draw your sword damnit ! I'm will not hit an unarmed man !" shouted the ronin. Despite being one, Rueko still abided to some rules, one of those was not to kill an unarmed man. Hopefully, Ledelius would draw his sword, and the battle could begin ...

Ledelius, standing now, still out of striking range of Rueko, could not quite understand why this man did not strike, though with his weapon, he easily could have. Having heard what the man said, however, he understood, though quite honestly, it was a feeling he could not sympathize with. But understanding the real battle would not begin until he drew his sword, Ledelius could not help but oblige.
With his grip tightening around the hilt of the masterfully crafted katana, in one very precise jolt, he yanked the katana from its sheath about and inch or so, for the rest of the blade, he slowly drew it out, raising his arm upward, as if a schoolboy waiting to answer a question. His thumb sat atop the blade handle when he'd finally fully drawn the blade. With the flick of his wrist, the blade swung in a half arc upward, simultaneously, he adjusted his grip so that his thumb pointed upward, sitting on the hilt, in the same direction as the blade. At the same time, he dropped his arm and angled his hand, so that the blade pointed upwards and diagonally at his opponent.
The battle would begin.

In his battle stance now, let the killing begin ... Rueko started swinging his Meteor Sting as Ledelius slowly unsheathed his katana, with great muscular precision, as if the man controlled every single movement he performed, his body under full control of his mind. This was a skilled warrior.
As the katana pointed at the ronin, the dark blade virtually invisible in the dim light, Rueko advanced. The blade was swinging in the air, close to his right hand, as he ran towards the ennemy, in the blink of an eye he started turning round, back quickly facing his adversary, as the lead blade flew towards Ledelius' neck. Rueko would follow up with a strike from the meteor head and then would roll out of the way, just in case.

Ledelius bent his legs and hopped backward, shifting his blade to just in front of his chest, splitting his body. He then turned his blade, so that the flat side faced his opponent, and subsequently the blade headed for Ledelius's neck. He thus, blocked the on coming blade with his own. When his opponent's weapon collided, with Ledelius's, he jerked his blade his blade downward and to his right, Rueko's left, which would send the weapon, like the other end, crashing through the wooden floor.
Moving his eyes with his opponent's blade, Ledelius noted the slight indentation his katana left in his opponent's blade. In addition, Ledelius had underestimated the speed of the blade as it approached, thus his wrists gave way some when the blades collided. It was a dense and heavy blade. With these observations, Ledelius noted that it couldn't be any traditional metal.
He would lift his blade to its previous position as he calculated his own strike. At this point, he was not concerned about the other end of his opponent's strange weapon, as it was already embedded in the wooden flooring.

Damn ! cursed Rueko. Ledelius parried and sent the leaden blade crashing into the floor boards, the meteor head of the weapon slowly flying around his head as it too crashed to the ground. He quickly pulled both weapons out, and started spinning both of them, on either side of his body, the "Dual Windmill" technique it was called.
His opponent was just standing there, no doubt thinking how to deal with this exotic weapon. He was a very defensive warrior it seemed. Never striking first. The ronin kept his weapons turning, his eyes fixed firmly on the still form of the ennemy: Rueko would strike again, HE was an offensive warrior.
In a subtle move, Rueko hooked his rope around his neck with his right hand, freeing it as he grabbed the weapon again with both hands as he performed a whole spin, swinging the lead ball mercilessly towards his opponent, with stunning speed, aiming for the solar plexus.

As his opponent spun his weapons, Ledelius evaluated his situation. With such a multi faceted weapon, any careless move would not only end in the loss of the bout, but even the end of his own life. The blade density was far more than Ledelius had ever encountered, save for in hats...
Noting the oncoming weapon, Ledelius, again moved the blade to his center, shifting it to the side again, but this time, he leaned forward into it and pushed his blade forward for a more forceful blow. Again, when the blades collided, Ledelius pushed it down and to his right for an effective parry, sending it by him and into the flooring, making wider the hole it had made previously. The collision was almost in the same position before. There was another indentation in the attacker's blade, connecting the two dents to make one, larger (still quite small) dent.
Ledelius's eyes moved from the grounded blade back to his opponent, moving his own katana back to its previous position. His eyes narrowed.
The plan was set.

Ledelius had a strong katana, if it could parry such a hit from a lead blade. Still, he could parry all he liked, it wouldn't save him for ever. Rueko's sting was deeply embedded in the floor, any attempts to pull it out were proving futile, and with an opponent feet from him ... He let go of the Meteor Sting, the ball end falling to the ground with a large thud, as he unsheathed both his wakizashis, staying in a defensive position and awaiting his opponent's move. It was HIS turn to attack.

Ledelius eyed his opponent for moments after the failed attacks. He then took this opportunity to strike. What small distance there was between them, Ledelius closed in seconds, running with his right arm across his body with both hands holding the hilt at his hip and the blade pointed straight backwards. Though the distance was closed to some degree, Ledelius left just enough room between them to be out of range of attack and to attack.
With his right foot one foot in front of his left and to the right of his left foot about 2 and a half feet, Ledelius bent his legs at the knees about 110 degrees and simultaneously lifted his blade and swung it across to the right from the left, releasing his left hand from the hilt of the katana (vise versa for his opponent) as if to cut his opponent across his chest.

Expecting a simple horizontal attack, Rueko positioned his blades, reversing the grip he had on them, to parry such an attack. However, within a foot maybe of him, Ledelius crouched, slashing his blade up and across his chest. Caught of guard, Rueko did all he could to avoid the man's blade, and so, he fell backwards, just as the blade cut through the material of his dõgi, his back slamming against the wood with a large thud, blasting the air out of his lungs, as he tried his best to roll backwards and get on his feet.
Now covered in dust, Rueko was determined not to let his opponent follow up with another attack. The ronin dashed towards his enemy, and started thrusting his wakizashis at his chest, one after another in rapid succession. Let's see how he parries this !

Ledelius stepped backwards as his opponent rushed. He leaped, so that he would be out of range of his opponent's on coming attacks, yet in range for an attack of his own, because his blade was longer than his opponent's wakizashis. With this noted, because he had missed his swing, his right arm was outstretched to his right, and his left arm was bent 90 degrees, with his elbow close to his side. It would seem that he was ready to be stricken dead, but only time would tell.
When his opponent swung with his left across Ledelius's chest, he brought his own blade back across his body, even though Ledelius was out of range of the wakizashi, he slammed his blade into the back of the wakizashi, which would cause it to move faster, considering they were moving in the same direction. At the same time, his blade, being longer than his opponent's, headed for his opponent's neck at the carotid artery which would slash from Ledelius's right to left (opponent's left to right).

He was soon going to down him, soon ... But no, Ledelius parried yet again, this time bringing his katana swinging towards Rueko's bare neck. It was all the ronin could do to twist his whole body, almost feeling his bones snap (not really) as he turned around and out of range of the blade, tripping on purpose on his feet to fall down. He placed both his hands in front of him, palms opened except for the thumbs which stayed holding the blade.
As they took the shock of the fall, he stayed there for a few moments, dazed by his opponent's retaliation, bu not hurt this time. The ronin used this position to kick back. Rueko first pushed forward a bit with his legs, placing as much of his body's weight on his arms, before suddenly pushing back with his arms towards where he expected Ledelius to be, legs now outstretched and ready to collide with his enemy's chest.
