Message: <blockquote data-quote="Black Omega" data-source="post: 362828" data-attributes="member: 79">Basically your problem is all follows.  Aside from Rokugan and the Shadowlands, there are no descriptions of the outside world at all aside from glimpses.  Yes, there are Ivory Isles.  They have assassins who sweat 'acid'.  And they trade ruthlessly.  That's about all we know.A little can be infered about the societies of the Burning Sands from the CCG but it's just bits and pieces.  There has never been anything talking about this in the RPG.  Thus getting the rest of the world involved would require the rest of the world to pretty much be created.I'm voting against it.<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />  But the obvious way to involve them as interlopers is to do one of two things.  They find a way to open a portal to Rokugan, but the world laws are so very different magic and tech are both vastly limited.  If you assume this is part of a general push at exploring other worlds, then the resouces devoted to Rokugan willl pretty limited.  It's just one world out of many being examined after all.Or strand groups from the old IR in that part of the world.  They were part of a battle and something went wrong with a new spell or weapon and a non-reproducable portal sucked the whole area to Rokugan.  In this case there is no contact with the old IR (and the headaches potential there) and resources are initially very limited.</blockquote>
