Ok, potential for new Washing machine delivery at ungodly hours (or at least by my perspective) means state of the Clans will wait another day. However I will give answers to the questions I find AND give a bit of insight into the doings of the Crane, given we have one and as a clan they have the least presence in RECENT history.
So I actually mention the Kaiu and Hida doing this to take out the Seokga of Water, the Hida going outside the spaceship to attack the creature. This is somewhat unusual, but makes sense given the context of the Seokga.
After all, we are speaking of the Counterparts to the Elemental Dragons, creatures that empower the Dark Oracles (Except Void of course, cause Void by its very nature is balanced and thus powers both its Light and Dark Oracle.) Size and power in such context is what the Seokga wants it to be.
On a brief side note, Seokga is a Korean mythical deity... Japanese lacks the concept of something more powerful then an Oni so such creatures needed a name. Seokga is the being in Korean myth who essentially saw the Korean Creator god make everything and then went, "You made this? Oh? I don't see your name on it? I think I made this."
The story is quite interesting if you look it up (and the idea that the creatures in Jigoku were an imitations and usurpers of the Dragons, rather then true equals and opposites appealed to me, as did deity scale art theft) and thus why the name was chosen.
Welcome, Kousuda! Yamada here! Hopefully no more death duels this time
Thanks!
Heh, I guess we'll have to see this time around, yes?
Currently considering a Yoritomo Shugenja or a Horiuchi Shugenja. Though, I'm curious, does anyone know how the spell Path to Inner Peace interacts with Meishodo?
The rule book doesn't mention anything about this, but I am willing to discuss it. Perhaps it gives the average result- 10. The idea of fast but no raises seems to fit with "This gives the average effect"
Also in doing a tiny google for this answer, I discovered just how dangerous a smart Tamori can get.
"I only have 1 Water Spell and 1 Fire spell...Fires of Purity and Path to Inner Peace. Hey, Bushi budies...you each have two bottles. I want to cast Earth spells anyway."
I feel like I have failed as someone who occasionally munchkins to have never thought of that.
Not everytime, but a lot of them. While the personality is fixed in place early on in character creation (...well most of it. Janisha's temper on certain issues and her love of drink surprised even me.) the questions often help with context.
Got some really cool ideas about tech that I hope Emerald Dragon okay. Like the ability to break into ships from the outside in zero-g. That includes my armour being able to seal itself.

None have yet to try!

*pokes head in* Still working on my 20 questions. The best part of character creation. Anyone else run through that when making l5r characters every time?
