Meet the Party: Otosan Uchi

By Cannibal Halfling, in Legend of the Five Rings: The Roleplaying Game

Emerald Empire gave us a bunch of new character options, so really it was only a matter of time before we had a Meet the Party using it to create ready-to-play characters (for use at the table or simply for inspiration), complete with backstories and inter-party relationships. And what better place to find these characters than the Imperial Capital itself? They are:

  • Seppun Nichiko, a member of the Palace Guard, sworn to die so that others might live but longing to give her life a value all its own.
  • Seppun Ryusuke, a shugenja and astrologer, once fooled and twice determined never to be so again, guiding the Empire by peering into the future.
  • Otomo Terumoto, a schemer sowing strife throughout Rokugan so that the Hantei line may rule unchallenged, to a degree even the Scorpion would admire.
  • "Miya Yemi", a herald thought missing and now safely returned to the Capital . . . whose shadow shows seven fox tails when she becomes flustered.

So give Meet the Party: L5R: Otosan Uchi a read, and see what kind of heroes and secrets can be found in the shadow of the throne. Thanks for reading!

Miya Yemi? Didn't she marry a spirit and have a half-spirit child?

I might - maybe - have been a little more obvious about grabbing name ideas from Old!Rokugan than usual. :P

Plus that one in particular amused me.
