[QUOTE="Arkhandus, post: 4042851, member: 13966"] Well, I looked through some of the other threads, and found the water shugenja you mentioned. bento's "Otaru Shenga", a river spiritfolk.... I guess I can take over that character, and just tweak a few stats. I don't know much about the character yet besides the charsheet I found in the old recruiting thread, so far. For now, here's a repost of Otaru's sheet with my few tweaks. However, I'll need to ask for info from Complete Divine regarding the shugenja's changed spell list and the Order of Gentle Rain or whatever, which from what I can guess is the renamed Kitsu school from Oriental Adventures. And I really, really don't understand how Otaru's supposed to fit into the setting or whatever.......is he allowed to use a wakizashi? Is he part of some noble House or something, or part of the Oathblades, or something else?

Never fight except to protect life, pacify undead, or prevent plagues. Water is the source of life, so preserve water and its purity.[/sblock] [/QUOTE]
