What looks like a sword but won't hurt anyone?

It's important.

[Great description, Jack, very informative.

Since Saturday, Jack has been spotted a few times leaving his room to explore quiet places near the dorms, occasionally pocketing money and other random objects found on the floor or picking up oblong objects and testing them against walls. A few of them have caused cracks. Apparently his quest is getting stale enough to need help.

[Well, that's a weird question, but the "important" comment gets Aki answering anyway. You never know if these kinds of things are life and death, after all.]

A paper towel roll, maybe... What do you need it for?

Ah, hello, I don't believe we've met in person. I'm Alric Caelegart, a new student.

[He smiles amiably, friendly but somewhat reserved--and somewhat puzzled.]

...as to your question, I'm not quite certain what you've got in mind. If you're interested in sword practice but concerned about causing harm, the best option would likely by a nylon or polypropylene practice sword and some padded armor. If the armor's more of an investment than you're prepared to make, it is possible to purchase or construct padded mock swords, although it's difficult to get those to wield like the real thing.

A foam bat?

Or a cricket bat, maybe.
