The lost kobune really is a glorious thing to have at random. XD Heritage-table as a strong part of character creation is something I'm glad to see returned. I always liked those in older editions. I just wish the damn things weren't so generic in most cases... the Imperial Bastard in the family wo...

When do you think you will be up to GMing another game in this sequence? And what themes are you pondering for it? I've been thinking on this for awhile. I've scrapped my original idea for Game 2, since that game would have been more slice of life every one in Otosan Uchi. But the game would have e...

The Nekoma who was waiting turned slightly when the celebrating young Nekoma entered. They're eyes, heavily rimmed in kohl, a stylistic choice from the Burning Sands, seemed brighter in the darkness of the room, as if the dim lighting from the hall candles made them glow. "Congratulations on your ge...

Thanks for allowing ishiken and trusting me with immense cosmic power. And thanks for all the work a game like this requires. What was the outcome for the shrines if we'd all looked at it and shrugged (unlikely...but...)? Sotorii's haunting is a nice touch on a bit of canon that had a lot of possib...

Inside were the tools of the trade of the Lion's Shadow. Ryuko, for her part, stepped closer to the young, freshly minted Lion Samurai. "Even still with raised eyebrows, I was thrilled to hear that one of the Shadow was sent to Tsuma. How did you find your time? Did you feel your lessons were well u...

There was a slender figure waiting in the room of Nekoma Shuichi. On a table, on the very edge of it, just begging to be pushed off, was a package, wrapped in fine silk. The figure looked out of the window of the room, their dark hair pulled back to a long ponytail, a simple ribbon holding it up. Th...

At the appointed time, Seppun Tokaji entered. He was relaxed in posture, having been granted the afternoon relieved of duties for the day. He looked at his son, then to the Asahina, bowing slightly. His eyes fell to his son, and there was a slight uptick to his lips, a smile. "You did very well for ...

I had a really fun time this game! Ah, the folly of youth and pirates... Did you have any favorite scenes? I know you've talked a bit about the inspirations for the game, but if you could go into it a bit more, that would be great. Honestly, I can't pick a favorite scene. So inspirations- The more ...

Thank you for running. I enjoyed the game. Look forward to the next installment!

Thank you!

Thanks for GMing this bad boy! Biggest curveball the game threw you? Favorite curveball the players threw you? Favorite NPC to run? One specific thing you'd do differently if you were setting this game up again knowing what you've learned from this runthrough? Thank you for playing! I don't know if...

It was fun. Enjoyed the tests even if I still do not feel I have a good grasp of the dice system. Are you happy with the broad sweep of the FFG reset of the history? Or do you think the original AEG version had a better "vision"? I didn't get into L5R at all until I randomly bought the 4th edition ...

Thank you for running the game for us. :) I wish I had been able to participate more but at this time of year I am lacking for spoons. Overall I had a good time, and my problems were with the system and not with the game. :D I enjoyed the little details in the Daily-post like the food that was serv...

"You did well, Kitsu-san." The honeyed voice of Ikoma Ryuko camr from the sliding door. Her kimono was as regal as ever, her hair pushed up into a pair of fox ears, inset with hair pins. The burnt umber and golden silks were subdued in the lighting. Closing the door behind her, ensuring the privacy ...

Which was your favourite Test to run/come up with details for?

The Test of the Soul. It was the one that I think had the most people guessing what it could be, and the event responses generated were amongst my favorites.

I guess Titles earned in game do not take up our Goal?

Correct. They do not take up a goal.

As a reminder - one can only take one unfinished title at a time, as well.

Please do not feel rushed in your choosing of a goal, either.

Thank you all again for playing. I had an excellent time running the game and seeing you all explore your characters.

While not every one is the Topaz Champion, the true prize were the friends we made along the way.

The Imperial Host watches the Closing Ceremony from a regal area off to the side, set apart from all other observers. They watch with great interest.

Day 11 is live. Thank you all for playing, and giving the fifth edition of the Legend of the Five Rings roleplaying game a shot. I know it's got some bugs, but we'll find a way to make it all work. I've enjoyed reading all of your threads. I have messaged various people with needs for threads on thi...

A brazier is lit, allowing partcipants to write down their new names, and toss away the old. Kakita Toshimoko stands at the brazier, with representatives from all the Clans, whether they be judges or observers, stand near the dais, in their ceremonial clothing. The daisho for each participant ready ...
