The funniest part is that Aimi, being a shugenja, gets to do all the normal duelling stuff but also has to do it with spells and another shugenja as her opponent.
I'm not even sure how many shugenja with combat spells there are in this game.

Re: OOC Chatter
Good point, especially since 5E assiduously shied away from the blastomatic shugenja of yesteryear...

Glory: 42 * Honor 41 * Status: 30
Carries his katana in an old, drab, battered saya. As of Day 13, wears a delicately carved bracelet of wooden beads polished smooth, laced through with red, yellow, and orange string and a small Phoenix token.
Standard gear: Ceremonial Clothes and a daisho. When in his element, ashigaru armor, a naginata, and a more relaxed form of terror are added into the mix.

Secret plan for D12: We all follow Soyokaze's example and concede rather than having to endure the duelling rules.

At least 5ed doesn't have grapple rules.

Thankfully in this case being a Voice of the Wilds shugenja is great because I can just pick whichever combat invocation I want to use, no problem, assuming a downtime period to prepare it.Shiba Raizo wrote: ↑Tue Aug 31, 2021 7:15 pm

As a bushi who wears a katana (and as someone who hasn't missed an event yet) Raizo... forces me to look into this total absurdity.
