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!
