The Day of Thunder

WARNING! THIS IS A HORROR GAME! That means that your character may die in circumstances that may feel unfair. It means that there may be gore, trauma, and potential uncomfortable topics. While I know many people here are veterans of MS games, so are likely ready, not all are. Please be aware of you...

Rules on what Advantages, Disadvantages, and Skills are allowed are located in this forum under their own topics. Advantages are capped at 15 points, Disadvantages are capped at 10.

Does this apply to returning characters too?

No.

Hello There! Fellow non-vulpines.

Seems legit

Was answered in Discord, but reposting for everyone's benefit: Returning characters from previous games that had a Daisho (or just wakizashi) in their starting gear still have those? EDIT: Does this mean every school's starting equipment, even the new ones added for this campaign, don't get those t...

Ask your questions here.

Blah, mostly done with the nitty gritty of character creation. Time for dealing with descriptions and events.

New Ad and Disad adjustments are up, as well as two new Disads.

Clan Advantage and Disadvantage Discounts Imperial Families Advantages Inner Gift (6 points) Ishiken-do (6 points) Sacrosanct (3 points) Disadvantages Soft-Hearted (3 points) Touch of the Void (4 points) Bat Clan Advantages Inheritance (4 points) Touch of the Spirit Realms (4 points) Disadvantages ...

Because I didn't see one elsewhere; please delete / consolidate if I just missed it. In "The Corruption of Yume-Jigoku," here , under the Gaining the Corruption section, are the Disadvantage modifiers cumulative? That is, if someone has both Driven and Phobia, are they at +10 TN on their rolls to r...

New Clan discounts on Advantages and Disadvantages will be going up shortly.

"The Corruption of Yume Jigoku" in the New Disadvantages section has been updated to "Corrupted", and may now represent The Corruption of Yume-Jigoku, Shadowlands Taint, or Shadow Points.

I'm amused by the idea that they all used vellum before. "Hantei-sama, why won't you pick up my scroll made of skinnnn?"

This is not a canon idea, just for clarity

There's a Ryoshun nao!

headman's house.jpg The village leader's house is slightly outside the village proper and a short hike up the hill, near the long stairway that heads even further up to the shrine and graveyard. It is fairly large for the home of someone non-samurai, with a well-maintained tile roof and garden with...

The market area's lanterns drawing locals and villages into the buildings make it an unusually bright spot in the village, however. The warm l...

village streets.jpg Perhaps it's just the current weather, but Blue Lotus Village seems like its trapped in a perpetual fog, deep enough that it's sometimes hard to tell the difference between night and day. Being shaded by the surrounding foothills likely doesn't help matters. The residential stre...

Choosing Thunders The Thunders will be chosen based on their demonstration of tenacity, heroism, and capability for going up against the Champion, whether that be mental, physical, or spiritual.

Many heroes of the Empire have been gathered by Shinsei following cryptic warnings from the Little Teacher. He insisted to the Kami that those accompanying him must be mortals. After all, Fortune favors the mortal man. The Kami would interfere with their success, no matter how well intended. And suc...

Deep in the cave, he saw him - his brother, his twin, his other half. He was on his knees, wrists manacled and chained. The chains themselves rose and disappeared into the darkness of the cave, their origins invisible. "Shiba!" He called, running over. Shiba weakly raised his eyes, looking up at hi...
