[QUOTE="Dark Nemesis, post: 1824604, member: 11714"] Okay! All of the character sheets that I have seen look good. The following people have given me great backgrounds and characters, so they’re approved to play. I’ll have the rogue’s gallery posted soon, and over the next few days I’ll be posting additional equipment for your character. Li Shenron: Kakita Ai Valeren: Shosuro Reiko [u]Scotley[/u]: I'm afraid mithral is very rare in Rokugan, so its not available for the price listed in the DMG. All you need is to fix your characters possessions, and you're in. [u]Kanaxx[/u]: Other than your equipment, your character looks good. Make the corrections, and you’re in. Also, addressing your earlier question, your character would be considered unarmed as long as his weapon remained in the quiver. As soon as he drew it, he would be considered armed. [u]Isida[/u]: I was wondering if you were going to stick with the version of your character that you posted earlier, of if you were working on a final draft? [u]Ankh Morpork Guard[/u]: Your character only needs a background, and to change the cost of Kitsu Taiko from 6 to 7. [u]Tailspinner[/u]: Your character also looks good, just waiting on a background. But, here are the kitsune taboos I owe you (finally, huh?) In order to keep themselves distant (and avoid losing their spriritual powers), the kitsune who interact with the Fox Clan have adopted several taboos which guide their behavior and mannerisms. Some human members of the Fox Clan, as well, have chosen to adopt these taboos, respecting their spiritual guides and making less likely that a visiting kitsune will be noticed. Not all Fox samurai choose to accept a taboo, but those who do follow it faithfully all their lives. It is said that a Fox who accepts the burden of a taboo is especially loved by the kitsune, and if he abides by it faithfully, will be well cared for if ever in great need. ~The kitsune are creatures of the land and of the woods.
