Curious - I noticed only two Oni Lords are listed, what of the other two, and the Elemental Terrors / Dark Oracles?

I don't get the impression that Akuma has 'died' yet, unless he/it became Daigotsu and the Dark Oracles now serve the latter...

Of course, Akuma has a bit of a personality crisis, naturally.

At present only two of the Oni Lords have not agreed to serve Daigotsu. Kyoso no Oni and Tsuburu no Oni. Well, and Okura no Oni, but that's a different thing.:) Akuma no Oni's physical form passed beyond, I believe around the time of the great fight with Okura no Oni, though his offspring still exist. And this isn't even getting into other Oni Lords that serve, like Yakamo no Oni, The Maw, The First Oni, etc.

Daigotsu is a former bloodspeaker with a mysterious past. From some comment's he's made he may be related to Toturi somehow.

The Dark Oracles don't really play a role in the game at present, same for the Oracles. Might be just as well, if Kaede is really both the Oracle of the Void and the Dark Oracle of the Void, as some have speculated. The Elemental Terrors have given way to the Onisu in the storyline, and little info has been given on them.

Creamsteak: Kyuden Kitsune is in the Southeast of Rokugan, just a little above that peninsula that sticks out toward the south.
 

Thank you, Black Omega.

Don't forget anything that you want to add, can be added. I like things that you can back up as being parts of Rokugan more than I like customized creations, but either is acceptable. For instance, a group of Spirit Oni could be created to aid an army as a small unit. They would likely have a 0 IR, but it's still possible. Or, you could create an Oni (Good or evil) NPC (ignore ECL and just use Character Level to determine levels).

Hope that helps.
 

It turns out the problem I have isn't quite as severe I thought. I will still be able to post, so I guess I'll still be playing. I might have to drop out later though. If that's a problem, I have no issues with just leaving now.
 

Hey, if you think you are going to have fun while your here, stay.

If you think this isn't going to be any fun for you, leave.

That's pretty much all anyone cares about. Your PL is still on the lists, as I decided to freeze it until I was sure you were gone.

Note: I'll be able to email everyone a condensed map... about 400kb. It isn't going to have text lables, just a general map with an outline of spheres of influence. More precise work requires someone with more skill than myself.

Well, one of the oni lords is not particularly powerful but...

Why Akuma is 'serving' a human mystifies me. He's still pissed about what the Phoenix did to him, still pissed that he has not managed to fully consume Isawa Akuma's soul, perhaps a little worried that some badass Isawa, some day, is gonna come along and rip his soul out...

As to Daigotsu being related to Toturi... I wonder if there is a point where something can have too much symbolism. No doubt, few L5R fans are aware of who, exactly Iuchiban was, but if Daigotsu was a bloodspeaker I would lay fifty bucks saying that it is Toturi's brother.

The Dark Oracles don't really play a role in the game at present, same for the Oracles.

Onisu? Sigh, I really should read the d20 books, it seems, even though it makes my stomach turn.

There is Agasha Tamori (Dark Oracle of Fire). The new Oracle of Fire still took up residence in that volcano - sleeping mountain, didn't she? I'd have to go read the book again.

The elemental terror of void had a decent explanation - but I just have to see how they'd explain a dark oracle of void if it is really furthering the cause of Corruption.
