Maki: You can theoretically fence with a case of rapiers, but it's a completely different style than what Weiss uses. But yes, as long as she stays European Renaissance, the largest thing in her right hand would be a buckler or a main-droit. It is interesting that the German uses a style ultimately out of the Italian schools (hers is linear and far-ranging, and therefore not out of La Verdadera Destreza), unless she wants to get into Mensur (can you imagine her in that getup?). Tangentially: Does it bother you that Myrtenaster seems to lack a tang?
