Re: GM Questions
In regards to making the scrolls.
The example given in the description of the Transmute spell is a wooden desk being turned into fire. The limit given is that complex items with multiple parts can't be transmuted, though individual parts (such as a wagon axel) can. Is that true in reverse? Can I take fire and make ink, for instance? Would this allow us to literally write each scroll with an aspect of a specific element?

What kind of social stigma is there against people who have Taint in this time period? (I am guessing it may be different than canon L5R where we battled the Shadowlands for 1000+ years.)
