* WreckedWeapon: The intro starts with a duel between two champions representing grandmaster smiths. One smith claims his blade can cut through any man, and the other claims his blade will cause harm to no man. After the duel, the smith clarifies that it may harm a man if need be, but the result of destroying the opponent's sword is better than losing a warrior.

Forbidden Arms is an [[WebGame online]] 2D [[AdobeFlash Flash]] game developed by GodSeeD Studios.
A mysterious warrior named Ichirou has been disturbed from his deep stasis by ninjas. In his possession lies the legendary forbidden sword Mumei. Although this grants him immense powers, it comes at the cost of draining blood out of its enemies and if not satisfied, its user. To satisfy the sword’s thirst, he must slay those aforementioned ninjas and find out why he was woken up in the first place.
This game can be played at [[http://www.kongregate.com/games/kreig13/forbidden-arms here]].
----
!!''Forbidden Arms'' provides examples of:
* ArtifactOfDeath: The titular legendary forbidden sword, Mumei, wielded by Ichirou. Even though this sword grants godlike powers, it drinks the blood out of its enemies, and if Ichirou runs out of BP, from himself.
* BloodMagic: Most of Ichirou's special abilities use up a varying part of his BP (Bloodlust Pool). So, managing them and the sword's blood drain properties is crucial to survival. The Bloodlust Aura skill branch emphasizes this.
* ColourCodedForYourConvenience: The difficulty of the ninjas and demons can be determined by the color of their robes as well as what weapon they have equipped.
* DemonSlaying: [[spoiler:What Ichirou is revealed to be at the end of the game.]]
* EmpathicWeapon: Ichirou can speak with his sword Mumei (and vice versa). [[spoiler: This is also revealed to be case with Onika and her demonforged weapon "Reika"]].
* EverythingsBetterWithSamurai: Ichirou, part of a long line of samurai.
* FlashStep: Blink Shift. It allows Ichirou to teleport to any part of the screen, as well as increasing his chance to do critical hits. It can also be used when on cooldown, for high BP cost.
* GiantSpider: The second boss is one.
* GoddamnedBats: The Spider Demons and the Shuriken Throwing Ninjas. Both have an annoying tendency of breaking combos as well as staggering or knocking down the protagonist. They specially become more dangerous at the higher difficulty settings and/or higher numbers.
* HighPressureBlood: Everyone seems to suffer from this condition. Which is great for Ichirou's sake.
* HighlyVisibleNinja: The ninjas present here appear to focus more on crafty combat maneuvers, projectiles, and teleportation rather than stealth.
* IdiosyncraticDifficultyLevels: Three of them (in order from easiest to hardest) with the following descriptions:
** "The Slayer". Wish to just enjoy the game and the slaughter? This game mode is for you!
** "The Hero". Do you desire a challenging experience? Take this path, instead.
** "The Fool". Are you a fool? Insane? Suicidal? A cheater? Or a gamer god? Prove any of it in this mode.
* InstantAwesomeJustAddNinja: Many of the foes Ichirou faces are ninjas.
* SoulPower:
** Souls (denoted in-game as soul points) are used as a currency in this game. They are obtained by slaying enemies.
** The Soul Tempest skill branch emphasizes this type of power.
* SuperMode: The Void Tempest skill allows Ichirou to become invulnerable, have a greater critical hit chance, and unlimited usage of all Soul Tempest, Brandish Art Sword Skills, and Blink Shift abilities. It drains him of BP though, and no BP can be regained while in this state.
* WakeUpCallBoss: The first boss, the Blue Ogre. Up to this point, the ninjas could be dispatched without too much worrying about dodging, proper comboing, and healing. But, he himself is a surprise challenge, due to his relatively high damaging attacks as well as high attack range.
