So you're saying we need to get... more creative? :twisted:
If you get any more creative, there will be doors slammed in your face, and it will have consequences for the relationship between the Crab and the Imperial Families.

From a purely practical point of view sempai, the smart guys are talking at EE, and we're doing math (badly) in your room at LE. At best, we'll learn about the jade thing at nightfall.

Do we really want to start a tradition of Imperial dragging people out of their beds to take their shiny green rocks?

...

Do we WANT to?

Yes.

But SHOULD we?

No.

'Sides, since neither Imp has used a Low Skill on the Seidou, we might be able to make them an offer...

Sorry, I should have included that. It's half again as much rounding up, so 1 koku, 3 bu.

... Incidentally, this setting's coinage system is going to be base 10 when it gets set up so it is slightly more sane. -__-

So if we were to say, beat the crap out of someone in the courtyard as a scapegoat, we might smooth things over? :mrgreen:

Ok.

Well, I think I will do some late evening shopping then, and get a jade ornament of some sort.

Crafting arrows, if they are using metal tips, takes 1 day per arrow. This seems a bit silly and I was wondering if instead if gives a number of arrows?

You won't be making them using metal tips except in one place. Maybe stone or bone or something elsewhere.

You can make 5 at once, counting the time to craft the arrowheads.

You can used Medicine (Herbalism)/Intelligence TN 25 plus Hunting (Survival)/Perception TN 20 to build one from scratch. That represents gathering both the medicinal herbs and finding or making the other components.
Does this require Herbalism emphasis, or since one is collecting the ingredients (as opposed to actively treating wounds) is it just a Med roll where herbalism would apply?
