The Seven of the Empire

The Seven of the Empire was a project led by a general with the term that they had loyalty to the empire under any circumstances so that they would not hesitate when eliminating the enemies that threatened the empire nor would they wonder if what they did was good or bad they would become the most powerful weapons of the high command, in order to carry out this project the empire had to kidnap and buy the children of the poorest citizens of the capital, gathering a total of 100 children who would be subjected to a cruel test in which they would have to cross a forest full of dangerous beasts from end to end. The first seven to cross the forest would be part of the Elite team while the other children who survived the other tests would be sent to the empire's underground laboratories to experiment on them. Gozuki was in charge of training the first seven children treating them as if they were his children in order to form special bonds between them so that the nostalgia in their feelings would prevent them from causing any kind of betrayal making them believe that their true family was in the empire and their main purpose was to serve it, they would carry out the lowest, most disgusting and dishonorable jobs of the empire with the belief that what they did was for a good cause, the training and brainwashing lasted for years until they had a sufficient level to contribute a Shingu.

What is a Shingu?

Shingu (臣具, lit. Subject's Weapon) are ancient items created by the Emperor 400 years ago, they are very similar to Teigu as they possess special abilities and are based on Dangerous Beasts to be created. The Emperor 400 years ago sought to create new weapons, stronger than the Teigu. The Emperor then set out to create his new artifacts and was eventually successful in this. However, the new artifacts he developed did not match the strength of the Teigu. Out of shame for his failure, he ordered all Shingu to be sealed away. Many years later, the Shingu are extracted from the Empire's secret storage, and are given to an elite assassination division of the Empire, which includes Akame. Compared to the Teigu, the Shingu are much weaker and have several drawbacks since they cause damage to the user or fatigue.

What is a Taigu?

Teigu (帝具, lit. Emperor's Weapon) are ancient weapons and artifacts created by order of the First Emperor, which are unique, extremely rare, and very few people have the necessary ability to use them. Among its various forms we can find from weapons and accessories to armor and semi-organic beings. The user of a Teigu must be compatible with it, otherwise it may reject it and even end its life. The Best Craftsmen The best artisans from a thousand years ago gathered to create Teigus. More than 1000 years ago, the First Emperor became deeply concerned about finding a way to protect the Empire forever, as he was well aware that his life would eventually come to an end, and the safeguarding of the region could not depend on him for much longer. Determined to achieve this goal, and using all the resources and power that the Empire had at that time, an ancient legend tells that the Emperor ordered the best researchers and craftsmen in the world to gather together so that they would dedicate all their time and effort to creating a series of weapons and artifacts that would guarantee the perpetuity that the Emperor sought for his kingdom. In this way, and using the best materials that could exist (such as the metal "Orichalcum" or various parts extracted from various "Ultra" class Dangerous Beasts) the 48 weapons and artifacts called "Teigu" were created, with which the continuity of the empire would be guaranteed forever. However, due to the result of a great civil war that happened around 500 years ago, almost half of the Teigu are missing, and it is even possible that some of them have been destroyed permanently (Gozuki is the only one who has a Taigu in the group).

The Shingu of the Group

-Akame's is "Kiriichimonji": a sword-type Shingu that inflicts wounds that are impossible to regenerate. -Nagasho's is the "Water Dragon Sword": A sword-type Shingu using its ability will make the user stronger for 3 minutes, but, when its effect ends, the user will enter a state of extreme exhaustion. -Tsukushi's is "Prometheus": A gun-type Shingu that can fire any type of bullet. However, using it too many times in a row will result in a decrease in aim, so it is essential to know how to use it. -Cornelia's is "King Pulverizer": A gauntlet that grants the user superhuman strength. However, if used incorrectly, the user will be harmed. -Green's is "Rattlesnake": A whip-type Shingu that can move at the user's will, but its style makes it more difficult to control. -Gai's is the "Rhea Suit": a Shingu-type armor designed to have an advantage on the ground. In addition, it has the ability to dig underground. However, it cannot create earth out of nothing, and it exerts enormous pressure on the user. -Poney's is "Accelerator": A cloth Shingu that increases leg speed and power. However, it doesn't increase it too much so it's important for the user to be strong.

"Murasame"

It is Gozuki's Taigu in Murasame, a sword-shaped Teigu, whose edge carries an ancient curse (which manifests itself with the symptoms of a lethal poison) that inevitably causes death to a person with a single scratch from it. The time of action of this curse is really minimal, being able to end the life of a person in a matter of seconds. This Teigu seems to be inspired by the ancient Japanese legend of the Muramasa swords, where it was held that their extremely sharp edges brought misfortune to its bearer, and all those close to him.
