Due to their better than expected performance more resources were allocated as time went on until the organization was officially recognized as a child organization of the [[stararmy:start]]. 
 + 
 +=====Activity===== 
 +The Shinken Initiative spends most of its resources on furthering melee weapon culture in the [[faction:yamatai_star_empire]] in a variety of ways. However its main focus is both teaching [[skills:martial_arts:gendaijutsu]] and hosting martial arts tournaments. Using their initial connections with the [[stararmy:start]], they have also become an optional training program for soldiers and officers alike to undertake and improve their combat abilities. 
 + 
 +=====Organization===== 
 +The Shinken Initiative is run by two individuals, [[characters:npc:daichi_kurogane]] who manages and runs the organization, and [[characters:npc:kazue_sonohana]] who is the head instructor of [[skills:martial_arts:gendaijutsu]]. The two main branches of the organization are the research branch which conducts research into martial arts and ways of designing appropriate weapons for modern martial arts to be useful in war, and the teaching branch, which spends its time improving the teaching methods used, as well as actually teaching. 
 + 
 +=====Misconceptions===== 
 +There are often misconceptions about the company, as their methods seem rather contrary to those of the  [[faction:yamatai:ketsurui_samurai]]. However, the Shinken Initiative holds the [[faction:yamatai:ketsurui_samurai]] in high regard for its maintaining traditional arts. The initiative is aware, though, that the traditional methods aren't for everyone, and created their program to fill the gap in cultural awareness as well as military trianing. 
 + 
 +=====Weapons===== 
 +The Shinken Initiative does not have the facilities to mass produce their own weapons, but they sourced their ideas to other companies to handle mass production. These are the weapons that the company has designed; 
 +  *[[corp:tamahagane_company:gaussbow]] 
 +  *[[corp:tamahagane_company:gunto]]
