(IRR) The Rokugan IR (Recruiting Players)

[Kalanyr]

All sound good, unfortunately CG=Chaotic Good . Does Rokugan have any of the oriental spirits of nature and such, like the Snow Maidens and such in OA ?

 

[Creamsteak]

The Spirit Folk are similar to what you are asking about... I don't know again, I need to refer to Black Omega or another educated member.

Anyway, the lists stand as they are. Kal took one of my claims so they have changed.

[Black Omega]

I'd prefer a CG group but there's only 1 in Rokugan and its taken. The crane are also kinda neat so I picked them.

There is a CG group in Rokugan? Where?

 

[Black Omega]

Fearlessly stepping in...

The Naga strongly tend to be LN, not surprising when you consider they basically have a group mind. The Nezumi strongly tend to be CN and inhabit parts of Shinomen Forest (now that the Naga are asleep. Rats don't mix well with snakes) as well as portions of the Crab lands and Shadowlands. The immunity to taint is pretty nice.

The Spirits of Nature in OA are different from the Spirit Folk, though neither exist in Rokugan so it amounts to the same. Generally in OA unless it has the Five Rings symbol at the start of the creature description, it's not a Rokugan thing. Does't stop CS from changing that, of course...

 

[Creamsteak]

Once again you are incredibly helpful. I still may add the Nezumi tribes to the lists. Immunity to Taint would translate to Immunity to being "subverted" meaning that the Nezumi do not suffer the 5% conversion chance that humans have against Shadowlands forces.

I've been away from Rokugan for a very, very long time, but the Kitsune and Kenku have not been wiped out, have they?

Regardless, neither are very powerful... Goes with the whole Chaotic thing. Rokugan tends towards a Lawful Neutral alignment as a whole... 'Good' versus 'evil' is about 'honor' versus 'shame' in Rokugan, more than a bunch of tree-hugging magi blasting lands clear free of taint.

Not to say that there aren't nice people in the land - even Bayushi Shoju was a good guy in his own way.

I'm rather surprised that the Kolat and Shadow have no power - were they wiped out too?

---

I may join and pick up the Crab lands and what not, though I've forgotten just about everything and I ever bothered reading the rules in the d20 books (the system was a part of the story...)

Not to mention I only really followed things up to the Clan War, then lightly until the Spirit Wars... and nothing after. Let's see...

 

[Xeriar]

I'm not clear on how everything goes, but I'll give this a shot.

I think this is 80 points. I will need to do research on just what is in the Crab Clan before I pick anything more...

[Mr. Draco]

Creamsteak, I'm interested in joining.

It definately sounds fun, but could you give a quick run-down of the scorpion and pheonix clans? (if they aren't taken yet, that is)...

I have no knowledge of rokugan at all pretty much...

 

[Macbrea]

I have claimed all of Scorpion clan as of this time. Their philosophy is best described as,

"If your pride and honor get in the way of your loyalty, Then you have failed the empire."

also note,

"We wear masks upon are face so that you may know us for what we are at first glance, Unlike the other clans."

 

[Lichtenhart]

Ok I finally managed to get my hands over Rokugan campaign setting by AEG, so I could use the map in there.

Creamsteak, could you please add these places to the North-West Rokugan list and to my claims:

Toshi no aida ni Kawa (City between the Rivers) (city) PL 3: IR 4
Shiro Moto (castle) PL 7: IR 5

(BTW you stole 6 villages from the unicorn in the North! Just kidding I'm not going to claim them )

The rest of my claim is:
* Unicorn Clan Champion: Moto Gaheris (Male Sam 5/Moto Avenge 10) PL 2 as my PC

and

* Shiro Ide (Castle) PL 7 : IR 5
* Shiro Iuchi (Castle) PL 7 : IR 5
* Shiro Shinjo (Castle) PL 7 : IR 5
* Kyodai Na Ana (The Great Crater) PL 1 : IR 0
* Kita Toge (Northern Pass) PL 1 : IR 0
* Minami Toge (Southern Pass) PL 1 : IR 0
* Shinomen Mori (Hidden Forest) PL 1 : IR 0
