So, interesting question: does the courtship point penalty for unmasking still apply if it happened in the geisha house (while in a session with a geisha) given that their explicit purpose is someone Samurai can vent to and let down their mask around?

[Kitsu Murato]

The inn description suggests that some more important guests get yashikis. Do any of the miai participants warrant that, and if so what thread would they be in?

Query-

This occurs as long as you have not gone more than 24 hours without three consecutives time slots of sleep. If you have gone more than 24 hours without sleep, you will need to sleep for at least 6 consecutive hours (three times slots) to regain this recovery ability.

So as written... you cap out at needing three time slots of sleep, regardless?

I'm not quite sure I understand 'cap out' in this context. You need three consecutive time slots of sleep roughly every 24 hours.

Y'know, I thought about that. The problem with making the geisha house a free unmasking place is we could end up with a ton of geisha house threads where people just wanna run in, scream for a few moments and then run back out.

I figure leaving it as a place where one can pursue their passion (assuming that their passion is one that can be pursued there) would suffice.

Yeah, that makes sense.

Newp. There is a thread answering that question, but I may as well reiterate it here. Unless you're a Deer clan pc, you're stay in the inn. Deer clan PCs get a room at the castle. Yashiki are for peeps like the emerald magistrate currently, or if some other npc of high status shows up for...y'know....reasons.

Silly question, in order to say use Domain of Suijin I need to have a concrete understanding of a body of water how long would you consider that to take?

I would assume a small koi pond would not take very long to say a river area, and/or a lake.

As I said silly question, just trying to get a grasp of my powers.

As long as you've spent a timeslot there, it should suffice.

My point is, the second sentence is phrased as if it's meant to entail more sleep than usual when compared to the first.

*Ponders wording*

Sleep 3 consecutive time slots a day, and your recovery will be normal?
