Re: The Stone Matsu, Nakodo Ishi, and other improbable adventures: Ishioka Q&A

What's one thing that you feel the game handled really well? What's one thing (outside of dueling and strife) that you feels needs to be changed before the next game? I much prefer 5e's dice/rolling system to having to call raises and see if Orokos will screw you by 1-2 on a TN 25 or 30 roll. Narra...

Re: The Stone Matsu, Nakodo Ishi, and other improbable adventures: Ishioka Q&A

Now I'm wondering what the "help" to land a ronin Raizo had little trouble confessing his feelings to and who, given how the events shook out, he had NO chance of persuading the Deer to pair him with would have gone... :lol: Look, Ishi woulda tried hard, but he also learned that he had to stop figh...

Re: [D14ME] Sunsets and new beginnings (Closed)

Ishioka leans in to kiss her cheek affectionately. "Dear one, if there are potential cubs on the way, my family will be so excited they may forget to try to outshine our kin. It has, uh, been very important in the family for a long time to see a great warrior samurai-ko raised. If we may have twin g...

Re: The Stone Matsu, Nakodo Ishi, and other improbable adventures: Ishioka Q&A

Say, that reminds me.... our guys really only talked the one time. Some of that was only so many hours in the day, but Raizo was more than a little weirded out by Ishioka's offer of help. Anything to unpack there? Nakodo Ishi on a rampage? He was trying to be generally helpful at the time he though...

Re: The Stone Matsu, Nakodo Ishi, and other improbable adventures: Ishioka Q&A

How do you compare Nakodo Ishioka with Nakodo Kuma? Nakodo Ishi meant well, but his successes (if I'm greedy he takes credit for Bai and Mura, Tsugu and Shizuka, and Soyo and Mitsuki - basically none of whom actually needed his help which is good because he didn't provide much. Nakodo Kuma, on the ...

Re: The Stone Matsu, Nakodo Ishi, and other improbable adventures: Ishioka Q&A

Who did you plan to hook Mitsuki with if she hadn't roasted you to death when you tried to play matchmaker? It's also one of these situations about which, in retrospect, exchanging a few PMs before going nuclear would likely have been better. Sorry about that. As it happens, Ishi was pretty committ...

Re: [D14, EA, Ishioka's, closed] Coming clean

The big man's eyes blink slowly as he processes. To his credit, when she's being so clear, it doesn't take him long. There's a serious nod and "I see." Then, "Wait, so you're not...you're not mad?"

Re: [D14ME] Sunsets and new beginnings (Closed)

The Lion looks at her curiously, seeming lost in her eyes and face as he tries to process the meaning of her divinations. A small spark seems to wink above his sandy hair as his eyebrows lift and there's a slow building excitement roll through him, coming to his eyes to have a better look at her. "W...

Re: [D14, EA, Ishioka's, closed] Coming clean

One of the Lion's eyes opens at the first question, surprised like he must have heard wrong. The other opens, seeing Inoshishi's... enjoyment? Couldn't be. The following question and her playing with his hair confirms he heard the first question correctly. But his brain can't make the leap from wher...

Re: [D14ME] Sunsets and new beginnings (Closed)

Ishioka's smile beams as his heart beats just a little faster, things feeling on track and positive. She's so adorable when she bites that lip. A loving squeeze presses her against him briefly in recognition of her nervousness. "Ah, ideally the more prestigious families, especially the daimyo's fami...
