Given how easy large surface burns go septic if this wasn't a magical setting it probably would be.

I saw that after my computer rebooted, and thought "Maybe check in the OOC, see what the plan is - Oh, crap, they started, and have no shuggies!"

And per the family thing, I actually did start angling for the Isawa to join as either an equal clan, or member of the Imperials. Only one thread, but I did start!

Heh yeah I had a similar reaction, "I was in the last combat, I should let another shuggie give support. Oh, crap..."

I still think they can do it but it is definitely 'hard mode'.

Well, I figure several of the Isawa already joined the Imperials, I just want to do so as a version of the Seppun Hidden Guard/Priests type.

We DO have a lot of ex-Isawa, but so do the Spider. Could be like the Ayakashi, go halfsies.

Actually, what families HAVE been established?

Imperial
Shiba (a bit like Hantei in the canon-verse, in the sense that it's never going to really be a family the way the others are)
Jiyo
Yuzuru
Chiyo (eventually)

Spider
Fu Leng (presumably, but nobody rocks his name yet)
Reiko (In name, but her followers all go by single names so far)

Dragon
Togashi
Saru
Wu (who knows Mirumoto)

Crane
Doji
Nanzi

Scorpion
Bayushi

Crab
Hida
Anjing
Yoshitsune

Ki-Rin
Shinjo
Jin (with Iuchi as his student)
Chai

Bat
Ryoshun

Lion
Akodo
Makime

Stag
Hantei
Seppun
Kenshiro



Isawa, Mirumoto, Agasha, and Matsu have all either appeared or been directly referenced- Mirumoto is still associated with the Dragon due to association with Wu, Agasha's closest ties are with the Bat, and Matsu is a Spider-baby.

Don't feel bad, I routinely miss with my single best dice pool. Orokos requires our tears to be happy.

Combat is a bitch. You either have the luck of Orokos or it just kills you while laughing mockingly

Plus you never know where the clutch roll will come from when Orokos deigns to be benevolent.

I feel like we have lots of better candidates than the canon missing families.

Stats-wise, Ayumu is a okay bushi, but not an awesome one.

So I think he'll do a fine job at showing how "normal" people fare against such beasts.

If he survives, I already have his traumatic tale ready in my head.

Yuzuru
Chiyo’s Family (jointly established by Karanoko and Tsubo) should be a going concern after any time skip of more than 5 years or so. Tsubo’s player and I just felt that it made more narrative sense for the Family to take shape organically rather than being declared straight off.

They’re a bit like the Miya, but with a shugenja school. Scouts, rangers, and emissaries who connect with the land as well as the people they visit.
