My landlord is coming to check on the property on Saturday. This is why I will likely not be available for Jessie's birthday celebration and why I will likely not be available for any role-playing.
I had to schedule some vehicle maintenance on this Saturday. I've been putting it off since April. I should still make it, but will likely need a ride from the dealership. I might also have to leave a smidgen early to pick up my car when it's done. My appointment is at 10am and the shop...
We've played 8 mods, 7 of which contributed toward the well-being and supplying of my smith. 5 mods worth of supplies were used to craft a fine naginata. 2 questions: First, can you post the stats of my smith somewhere, perhaps in my character sheet thread? Second, can I attribute the 2...
The swirl of air weaved inbetween Asako Gregor's fingers. It was a simple game on which to focus while the shugenja reflected on recent events. He found it amazing, those things which spread by word of mouth. He'd grown accustomed to the fact that individuals recognized him for his poetry...
My Dearest Yumichiki-chan,
I am elated to find that not all members of our clan are ignorant of the imperial law of taxes. The residents of Kouraku Mura happily displayed their aptitude, having the necessary documents and payments ready upon our arrival. Given the extra free time, I had...
Gregor is satisfied with this explanation. Internally, he's not pleased to be once again meddling in the matters of that eccentric monk. However, he will be helpful in wrapping up the present situation, seeing that Yan We was a madman with ulterior motives and the peasants were clearly...
**Chuckling** "That is an astute observation Bayushi-sama. He even seemed to be well-informed of our actions in the past (mine at the very least), and yet could not contrive an appropriate force to defeat us. Perhaps he was even less qualified to maintain his position as magistrate than I...
Seeing that all I was able to do upon arrival was leave a message for the governor, I shall follow that precedent and have this message delivered to the Shijo:
Shinjo-sama,
I am quite happy with the success of the festival! Truly, I will return home with only good memories, as I feel I have...
I inquire of my comrades (who appear to know something is up) as to what exactly is going on. Aside from being the highest rank status samurai present, why is Shizue claiming jurisdiction over the affair? Does anyone have any notable enemies or reasons as to why this magistrate would try...
Again, in those situations, it was a disagreement with what the magistrates claimed and what the players themselves perceived and/or claimed. The specifics in this situation would be that, by following this monk's claim to the conspiracy and its involvement in those prior cases, I would be...
In those situations, the decision was made by the players that the magistrates are dumb. In this case, we have the word of a very eccentric, steals-from-dead-samurai monk that the magistrates are dumb.
Don't get me wrong. Rokugani Law and tradition is dumb. I'm just trying to follow it as I perceive Gregor would.
OOC: I'd have jumped on this conspiracy bandwagon with minimal objection.
This is a pretty big road block for my character. The previous crimes were solved, by the word of the magistrates who investigated them. I have 0 reasons to believe the monks claims over the words of magistrates in regard those crimes. In fact, I would strongly doubt my own honor if I were to...
It was brought up numerous times during the rabble at the end of the mod. The magistrates involved in investigating prior crimes that Irozu thinks are connected to the cult did not believe the monk's claims. Is this knowledge that I have IC or not?
If not, then did Irozu make mention of...
My response at the time of the mod to "why does this not interest your character" was that there was no tangible reason why it should. I tried to clarify what bugged me about the monk in the write up, and apparently I hit on all the wrong points. During the mod, the biggest (and only ones IC)...
