I'll just put this up here so we can start while we form our characters. Does anyone want any connections with a tough Hida lady? Still working on my backstory with the GM but I'm planning on family connections to Clan Leadership, so there could be something there if you've been to Hida Prime where she is from. Or, you could have been in a bar fight with her given she's very good in one.

Tetsuko-chaaaan, I doubt we will have met, but you have probably had contact with other Nezumi of the Burnt Crane tribe. Have a think and please let me know before the game starts as to what any other Nezumi would know about you, as our race has adapted (like we always do) quite well to the distance of space, so we have an efficient communication method :3 (it'll be amusing to be "introduced" to Tetsuko and then be like, "Yeah, nah, heard of Tetsuko-sama-sama.")

Is there some sort of Crab prejudice against Nezumi that hasn't entirely washed off?

Putting this in there. I'm a ronin bushi on a mysterious quest of some type and I've been questing for a little while. And am willing to hire a nezumi shaman for a guide, but will not get close/friendly to any regular people. Phe, if you want me to have hired you, send me a PM and we can coordinate.

Is there some sort of Crab prejudice against Nezumi that hasn't entirely washed off? Well, the Crab like the Nezumi traditionally more than any other clan. The only reason the Burnt Crane Tribe exists, though, is due to a Transcendent telling several Nezumi shaman a few centuries back about Thack'tcha'fatch-tek (Bright Happiness Day), and needing to find it among the stars; strangely, the Master of Void of that era, whose name in Rokugani and Nezumi I'll come up with soon **, made a relatively quiet alliance with the Nezumi faction that came to call itself the Burnt Crane; they give us what junk resources/equipment/ships they don't need anymore due to being obsolete or broken, and we deal with matters relating to Yume-do and investigation of taint-infested worlds as we are immune to it. Win-win :3 (Oops, Phoenix rant there, but essentially, the Crab would not love the Nezumi, but not show utter disdain like the other clans would. After a few centuries of Nezumi being useful in taint space exploration, they might even have use for us as allies?) PM sending now, Shinwa~ (also, I forgot that we aren't FB friends and sent you a DM there first lol, but oh well. PM sent~) **All Elemental Masters are known as Ti-ikak (Honoured Prophet), because the Nezumi can't distinguish between the five Masters. The Master of Void at the time was Isawa Yousuke, who was not a traditional Void Master in that he actively made his thoughts and opinions known among the Council rather than sitting there passively.

Makes sense, I'll give a good re-read of the history once this convention is over.

The quite Mirumoto with the Twin Radiance pistols. People call him Nanashi but no one is sure if that's his real name or just what people call him and no one has had the guts to ask.
Some call him an honorable wandering savior and others call him a deamon that spits fire. Either way he has never let Anything get in the way of doing what he thinks is right.
Did he meat you in a bar fight? Did he fight beside you? Or maybe he just shared his rice.

Some call him an honorable wandering savior and others call him a deamon that spits fire. Either way he has never let Anything get in the way of doing what he thinks is right.

What if we fought against each other in a bar fight ten ten minutes later were drunkenly singing songs over sake? As to what actually happened, it's a bit blurry...

That sounds about right for both our concepts.

Is there a disadvantage that would work for a fear of flying?

More connections: Now Kiru and I have a partnership, anyone want to have rescued us from a broken starship somewhere along the way, or run into us on a planet somewhere? Basically, we can have been around any place where significant current storyline-worthy events have happened or places that were connected to different people or items who had a role in the storyline events that have occurred, at least within the last two or three years.
My character is around 30-35 or so, not fresh from gempukku, but has only been out and about for the last 5.

SO... my character is Doji Kaiden. A former entertainment director on the finest of the Crane cruise fleets. Once bound for a senior position in the gilded halls of Golden Mirror or Fortunes' Blessing, an crucial mistake had him thrown from the fleet and from his family. He is very skilled in conversation and moderately skilled in a number of entertainment type skills. he's in his late 20s, quite good looking and meticulously dressed.
I could have met anyone that has traveled on the Crane cruises. And after his fall from grace, he is directionless. Probably spending most of his time in a sake house on some low end station.
