Legend of the Five Rings: Discussion and sign-up 2
 

Here's the old thread http://www.nuklearforums.com/showthread.php?t=7442


As I said membership is open so anyone who wants to join can join till we get to battle chapter then mebership is closed for the battle. Also this is for story, character, technique, and social discussion in the rp. Something to remember. Being a ronin sucks. Clan samurai treat you like trash, and peasants think you're trying to rob them.

Post story ideas here or in Private messages. I'll consider it. Like IHMN sent me ideas, and one of them is something I was considering for mission 2 so I'll be adapting one of his ideas. Thanks IHMN.

So I guess Matt can't just go over and smooth everything over with the Unicorns huh?

Whats the 'monster' situation like in Rogukan? The ratlings seem to be either severely disliked or enemies, the kappa are a nusiance or a threat (I know a couple of different versions), but what else is there?

Nuisance wise
Normal animals
Mujina (trickster spirits)

Hmmm...Pekkles...

Is this 'papers' situation going to boil over into a fight? Or is that up to us?

EDIT: Are the kappa bog/water dwelling or fire based? I've only really seen kappas in MtG.

Kappa are marsh and water based.

The village is wood, stone and thatch. To the north and east are grass plains. To the South are mountains and hills. The west is a pine forrest. The stream runs from the mountains to the Lake in the north.

Ok truth be told training troops is harder to RP than. All the rest of you just have to put up earthworks and barricades made of lumber.

Edit: Important question. Do you guys want to montage the month we have or rp it out.

I'd vote for montage. Unless something else actiony was planned for the month, countless "[blank] set up the defenses/guided the peasants" posts would be kinda dull.

Unless anything special of note is to occur during our stay, like maybe a visit from the Emperor himself, then I vote montage.

We need one more. Just so you know glory works like reputation in GTA: San Andreas.

If IHMN wants something burned, then would it be likely that the bandit be carrying a torch? It is dark.
