Most warrior types in L5R would want to consider a 3 Earth and then reflexes and agility. Pump Kenjutsu and Defense as much as possible? GM has given 60 Character Points (this is including my Disadvantages) to start, and 40 extra to get to Insight 2. A VERY powerful ally for my little Monkey Bushi. GM has ruled that it's the Scorpion clan, with my wife being a part of the Bayushi family. True Love due to getting Successful Marriage in my Heritage Roll. How should one build a very skilled warrior, but politically foolish? My clan and school both add to Willpower, bringing that up to 4, and it was easy to decide on Disadvantages.Ĭan't Lie, Idealistic, Overconfident, True Love

So the spookiest, evil place in the land? I decided on Monkey Bushi, given their affable nature and love of justice, I'm hoping to be the foolish, but brave guy in the most terrible of places. I've been told to make an Insight 2 character, and it was told to me that we'd be going on an expedition to the Shadowlands. GM said the year would be somewhere between 11 (since I think he wants the Spider Clan to be active). I know there's a newer canon that's not held in high regard, so I'm not sure where I'll be differentiating. I'm looking for some build advice, or places to look for advice or more information on the setting. I'm not sure if anyone here is going to be familiar with this system (it's dated), or this world (I don't hear it talked about much), but I figured I'd try my luck regardless. He's wanted to run a game of the Legend of the Five Rings for over a decade now, and he's asking us to put together some characters. So a friend of mine is brushing off the cobwebs on some old books of his, and wants to run a one-shot in the next month.
