IHMN, I already knew this because I read the sign-up sheet(not to mention I stated I already knew this above). However, I am asking JAD about the circumstances I described above if there would be any way in hell for a foreigner to be in existance here.

He would eventually die, quickly. Reasons being

1) He will be the tallest guy there.

2) He would have to hide his face all the time (Which no one does).

Eventually some one would see his eyes, and he would be killed (A normal foriegner is killed, one who sneaks in would be killed in a worse way).

Ah well, it seems that Dante and the rest of the Scorpions have arrived without me. Oh well, I can either be there already or arrive a little late I guess.

Except my char. He has a face not even a mother could love.

Ok there are two three types of foreigners. Senpet (Arab/ egyptians) they are killed on sight unless they are traveling with the unicorn. The unicorn has secret trade relations with them.

Ivory Kingdoms (similar to non arabs indigenous to the indian ocean. e.g. both Africans and the people of India.) They are killed on sight, unless visiting the mantis clan. The mantis clan has a secret trade aliance with them.

Lastly the various Eurpopean Gaijins, due to their hostile attack on the empire during the battle of white stag, they are executed on sight. any contact with them will result in the execution of Rokugani for acts of treason. The possession of their black powder except for purposes of making fireworks is treason and punishible by death.

So no straight foreigners, the proble is you wouldn't speak Rokugani. If you want to be a foreigner take a Unicorn clan samurai. and take the gaijin name disadvantage.

It gives you an extra cp and it costs you 1 die in all social interactions.

edit: Batgirl, Dante doesn't count as a scorpion, he's a spy after all.

ihmn: well the scorpion clan hides their faces behind masks. That's their signature.

Heh, I like putting a random raving lunatic somewhere.

I thought the Scorpion had more of the mouth cover and maybe something covering their forehead, but the eyes were still very visable.

depends on the scorpion.

if you want a lunatic go ahead.

So what's holding you all up?

Experience update: experience works exactly like CP. 1 e. point for a skill (can only increase by a max of 2 at a time, and maxes at 5); 8 ep to raise a trait; 12 ep to raise a void point; 5 ep to raise your glory; 3 ep to raise your honor; you can buy back some of your disadvantages but I'll only allow it if you rp a reason for you to lose it.
Me: 3 points (2 for my duel, 1 for my social interactions. 1 of must be spent on kenjutsu, 1 must be spent on courtier and the other is free to be used at a later date.)
Dante: 3 points (1 must be spent on acting, for bluffing the gaurd. 2 points are to be spent however he wants for moving about the crowd.)
Batgirl: 1 point (has to be sepent on Ghost Lore
Celes: 1 point (however she feels like.)
