The Day of Thunder

Reo is used to riding herd on the flanks. A few timely arrows chase away people who would have been looking to dig in to the group's sides

D7 LE Go Time - Defenses/Reflexes - TN 20 | 5k4 ⇒ 41 (TN: 20)

Reo doesn't consider himself the best with money. No one as coming to him with investment ideas, and any forays into being a merchant was long past. Still, as Ninube was gone most of the time on missions, that had left him in charge of logistics and budgeting for the Seekers, along with feeding and ...

Reo does his best to resist the whispers, but after spending so little time knowing his way he can't find his way through.

D7 EE The Way Out - Willpower TN 15 | 3k3 ⇒ 24 (TN: 15)

D7 EE The Way Out - Investigation/Perception - VP spent for phantom rank | 3k2 ⇒ 9 (TN: 20) Fail

"Ahh, the old "drink in the corruption" play. I can't say I've never been tempted myself." Reo drawls. His bow is still out from fighting the effigies. He had practice of late kneecapping someone who was fighting him. This time, it's a matter of shooting the bowl out of their hands. Only...this time...

Ohta had had a quick breakfast during the chaos and gone immediately to get ready. She may not have been a Thunder, but she had her place. And as she rode into the Village on Kinboshi, it seemed it was good she had gotten her bow and armor so soon. "It's good to see those lessons still are remember...

D7 Protect the Villagers MM - TN 20 - Kyujutsu/Reflexes - +5 from DosT school | 9k4+5 ⇒ 60 (TN: 20)

D7 Protect the Villagers LM - TN 20 - Kyujutsu/Reflexes - +5 from DosT school | 9k4+5 ⇒ 32 (TN: 20)

Two effigies down, nothing fancy

I already got a combat so I'll defer but I'll go as alternate if we are short.

For the events is it free reign to join in, or first one succeeding closes it?

With that success, he applies it to his willow leaf arrows.

The thing is, the Imperial justice system has seen considerable player investment in making dueling the prime legal system. That is how it is in canon. I don't think anyone disputes that. I don't think that "whenever there would be an honor duel, spend a VP and it's an opposed Investigation roll" ma...

"Ahh, I think I do. The Spider was always a clan of the leftovers made into something new." Reo blows on his food. "We aren't like the Crane or Scorpion who heavily drafted from one tribe. Sure, there was a core of Isawa from Reiko-sama, but they mostly went to the Imperial Court. I was from the Kak...

I'd give rank 1 a solid TN. Probably 20 to 25. Otherwise I feel it can be a bit low for the kind of thing it does. Rank 2: having a free make an ally button is a bit too much for any school. I'd drop this idea completely. The school is for solving disputes and encouraging alliances on a Clan level....

While the others are deciding who wants to be a special Thunder, Reo is at work. "It was always going to be Matsu anyway." Those those staying behind, he wants to give an edge. Naraku had shown him how to make that signature poison and now was the time to make more of it. As much as he could. D6 EE-...

"You know, it's the strangest thing." Reo tries to squint intently. "I logically understand the points separately, but when I try to put them together..." He shakes his head. "It doesn't click. It's not the strangest thing I've run into in my life but it certainly is interesting. Well, I suppose tha...

Reo studies the man for a moment. "I'll say this for the Spider: we are the home of the lost and found. I know I was, and so was your mother in law. So are the children I adopted, who are as much my own as those I more directly sired. And so you are too." Reo pauses. "I didn't believe it, you know. ...

Reo know exactly why this is important. He puts out an extremely informative treatise that has all the relevant information in exacting detail. He just forgets that it's for lay people. Hopefully, the smart ones will parse it! _______________ Purification of the Soul-The Whys and Hows-Lore: Spirit R...

Alright. After a night to sleep on it, I decided to approach from a new angle. I didn't want a duelist that would outshine the Kenziken, I wanted a courtier whose job was a resolve disputes, mend fences and stand for what they found to be the truth. So, I went back to Kitsuki Investigator for influe...

I think it's important to keep in mind too that the Crane have spent points over like... 3 games now or so to make dueling a thing as it is in canon-Rokugan. Exactly. At this point dueling as dispute resolutiom is pretty thoroughly enshrined. While Susumu could possibly push changes at a local leve...

What Yukara said. While duels are accepted , they're not given total primacy. There are PC efforts to make it so though The Crane push continually for the validity of the way of the duel to determine the favor of the heavens. The Crane cite the Imperial Tournament as the foundation of all legitimac...

This sounds like you want to make a Magistrate school! Maybe look at Soshi Magistrate or similar for inspiration. Kind of? Also some bridge build and ally making, but it started that way, but now everything about the legal code is duels so it's hard to extricate them from anything. What good does i...
