Character creation Player characters represent the samurai either already live on Asakaze or who have been sent to take part to the miai held by Asako Naokuni. The governor's invitations make it rather obvious that while every samurai is welcome he expects the daimyo and nakado of the clans to send young and capable bushi to his fief as if samurai bearing a single sword were somehow only half as good. Characters should be created using 4th Edition Core Rules, and the Great Clans supplement. You have 60 xp to create your character. Allowed schools can be found here. The changes to schools and new schools can be found in the pdf document that is available on the Banner discord channel. The discord also hosts a fluff document that details the Rokugan of 32nd century, its society, technology and clans. Also please check the rulings and rules found here before submitting your character. Also, when you should read through clan dispositions when considering your background and the motivations your character might have. Some of the Schools presented in the pdf are from book not otherwise officially included, and have been added for the sake of completeness. If a school is missing from the wiki, it is not allowed for this game. Many schools have been edited to reflect the changes of many centuries. Please take this into account when creating your character as many families and Minor clans no longer exist, or exist in altered forms and their schools have shifted or vanished along with them. All characters must be at least 16 years old. Note the following optional rules which we will or will not be using, as follows: -Characters should not exceed a Status of 4.0. Implications of status can be found here. -Brotherhood monks and the members of the Order of the Spider cannot marry and thus are not allowed for this game. -Your character cannot be married or engaged nor can they have an advantage that would imply that (duh!). -A number of Minor Clans have died out, been absorbed, or been created during the past centuries. Badger, Ox, Tortoise, Oriole and Monkey no longer exist. The Tonbo have become part of the Dragon. The Komori have been absorbed by the Mantis while the Kitsune split away from them. The Firefly, Osprey, and Shark are all new minor clans. -We will not be using Ancestors in this game. -We will not be using Honor Rolls in this game. -We will not be using the Crafting Rules in this game. -Kata will be allowed. -Kiho will be allowed. Shugenja and Ninja may both learn kiho, but ninja must spend an additional +2 xp for each kiho they wish to learn. Henshin monks are allowed to learn kiho, but cannot benefit from a kiho while they are under the effects of a mystery or riddle. Non-Brotherhood characters may never know more kiho than their total Monk, Shugenja, or Ninja school rank. -Shadowlands Powers and Maho will not be allowed for Characters. -Your character cannot start the game Tainted. -You can only get credit for 10 points worth of Disadvantages, no matter how many you actually take. -Your sheet should show your Math Background Considerations Please do not form any major connections with other PCs in your character's background; it rarely works out as intended once the game begins. Application Process Charcacter submission opens 24th of August. Characters submitted before that will be ignored. Once the character is finished, send the completed character sheet and background to purppuranaamio@gmail.com Then, register an account on this site under your character's name. To better understand what has happened within Emerald Empire since the previous game, please refer to the fluff pdf available on the Banner discord. Once we've looked over your character, we'll activate your account and send you an email. We won't be starting the game until August 28th, but we'll open up the OOC Boards on 25th so that everyone can get settled into place. You will also be given a private forum, which will contain a copy of your character sheet for your own reference. Your private forum is yours to use as you see fit. It is the easiest way to contact and hold discussions with the GMs, but it can also be used to make notes about the game in general. Signatures Your signatures should include your Status, Glory, and current Honor Rank (ie, Untrustworthy, Exceptional, etc). It should also note Clan and their role (i.e. Phoenix clan * Shugenja ) You should also include any obvious advantages or disadvantages that would be readily noticeable by other characters, such as Lame or Missing Arm, though you are free to include non-noticable advantages or disadvantages at your discretion. Flavor traits are also perfectly acceptable. Finally, please include a list of items that your character carries around with them in your signature, so that we might easily determine which items your character may or may not have on their person at any given time. Note that nearly all samurai (including courtiers and shugenja) carry their wakizashi with them wherever they go, as it is symbolic of their honor as members of the samurai caste. Whereas the katana and any sidearm are removed upon entering home or courts, the wakizashi almost never leaves the side of a samurai, and is one of the few weapons that can be worn in court or in the presence of the Emperor. Clan colors If you wish to show your Clan colors in your signature, please refer to the table below. Code: [color=#0000BF]Crab[/color]
[color=#0080FF]Crane[/color] [color=#408000]Dragon[/color] [color=#996600]Lion[/color] [color=#008066]Mantis[/color] [color=#ff9900]Phoenix[/color] [color=#8f0d0d]Scorpion[/color] [color=#535353]Spider[/color] [color=#990099]Unicorn[/color] [color=#FF1493]MCA[/color] [color=#8585ad]Ronin[/color] [color=#ab00e5]Imperials[/color] |
