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 two weapons now? It seems clans had access to them in the previous game, and Advances Schools like the Mirumoto Duelist has had a focus on the daisho since the end of the first game.

Yeah, that was because I wasn't really thinking all that well last game, so I should have adjusted it. People who had it before can still have them. It wouldn't be fair to take them away at this point. I may add a caveat to allow the Mirumoto Bushi specifically daisho for their techniques.Togashi Satsuki wrote: ↑Mon Oct 02, 2023 12:02 amWas answered in Discord, but reposting for everyone's benefit:

Anyone new can replace them with any two weapons.

Does this apply to Ishiken and Void spells as well?Pure Blood Magic does not use scrolls, as they are making offerings instead of prayers. Instead, they are functionally using blood to "fast importune" them. As such, they have access to spells of any level they can cast, provided they offer the requisite blood.

As long as they're Ishiken, yes.

Just wanted to doublecheck - are we using the rules that say Shugenja can have Kiho from the core rule sidebar (costing double the xp to buy and only using ring rather than ring/school rank to determine the kiho you can have)?

Do the following advantages apply in some way vs. Yume-Jigoku corruption?
Jurojin's Blessing (Scorpion): The Fortune of Longevity favors you, and as a result you can expect a long and healthy life. Whenever you are rolling to resist the effects of a disease or poison, you gain a bonus of +2k0 to the total of the roll.
Touch of Tengoku: You gain a bonus of +2k0 on Earth Ring Rolls made to resist the Shadowlands Taint.

Should new characters post about their dreams yet? Or just returning ones?

For returning characters, do they get any update to their stipends?

Returning characters get their stipend in addition to whatever they ended with last game.Togashi Satsuki wrote: ↑Thu Oct 05, 2023 12:52 amFor returning characters, do they get any update to their stipends?
Various expenditures have been assumed to come up, so they won't get the full 5 years worth.

I assume those using the same ronin schools but in different clans would have the same honor?
