Very nice. I know it's a Tier 3 shuji, but that is rather nice. I just hadn't found a use for it yet

Given that extreme success involves the spirits but basic success does not would Sixth Sense apply or not towards the Temple Art event if rolling Void?

Oh, hm.
Indomitable Will (Earth, Mental, Interpersonal)
* You can always choose to stand your ground, even when faced with untenable odds, super- natural terrors, or sorcerous powers that bend the minds of lesser souls.
* When performing a check for which you need to keep your cool when dealing with danger (such as a Command [Earth] check to give orders under pressure or a Meditation [Earth] check to resist the effects of fear), you may reroll up to two dice.
Useful for a Meditation [Earth] check in the Topaz Championship with the Emprah watching?

(You can say no, my feelings can take it :lol: )
Dragon ▪ Courtier ▪ Bushi ▪ Inquiring Mind
Status 33 ▪ Honor 55 ▪ Glory 50
Gear: Traveling or ceremonial clothes, fan, knife, wooden beads, very probably a book, flute. (Maybe: bō, yumi.)
