[QUOTE="StreamOfTheSky, post: 4863960, member: 35909"] I tried to make a character once that was a survivor of the Toyotomi clan after the evil Tokugawa shogunate had mercilessly sought to end their entire familiy line at [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Osaka]Osaka[/url] in 1615. Dealing with issues of guilt for not doing enough or dying honorably in battle, even though he was only a teenager and low level infantry at the time. Wanting to slay Ieyasu's offspring and reclaim the right to rule the country, but at the same time not wishing to bring the country the chaos of yet another civil war. Being proud of his family name, yet having to hide like a lowly ninja lest he be killed meaninglessly. Maybe confronting Hideyoshi's widow, [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nene_(person)]Nene[/url]. Even had a friend set to play a descendent of the Shimazu and a childhood friend, and another player to to be either a [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanada_Ten_Braves]Sanada brave ninja[/url], or one of their children.. Unfortunately...didn't really have a DM who knew as much about the Sengoku period or the desire to run it. Maybe I could run something liek that someday, or even during the Sengoku period instead of the aftermath. Just as long as the Tokugawa can be portrayed in general (I don't mind a few exceptions) as evil scumbags. :) [/QUOTE]
