No surprise....the military clans are supposedly less suited for court.

Proviso: I have never played PbP so i don't know if the following applies.

I think it has to do with the way crab politics are presented storywise we either get to be shown as apathetic brutes or slimeball merchants. Problem being is there is this long standing traditon of the Raikuto family that just got swept under the rug as first edition flavour text that we never get to use.

Half the fun is in violating those perceptions. If this had been in the Empire, I'd have felt obliged to try and get my Kuni Darling in, just for that very reason.

Since it's in the Colonies, though, I can't imagine her being over there.

Oh, please do come and play, Rixy!

If you truly want your Darling to spend this Winter in the Colonies, I'm sure all it would take is a whisper in the right Scorpion's ear. :ninja:

(And if you feel that there's a lack of justification for her being there... well, the Scorpion are also very good at providing "justifications". :twisted: )

I think she'd probably rather die than go voluntarily. Look at how her Daimyo treats that place, after all!

Any second thoughts on the matter now, in light of this, mmm?

Given that the pbp is 6 real months away yet, I imagine the Winter Court depicted above is at least the previous year's. 8-)

“Have you had the opportunity to visit the Colonies yourself, Kuni-san?” Too bad he couldn’t have her shipped off, but he already had the feeling that his kinsmen in theSecondCitywouldn’t thank him for it.

“I hope to go one of these days,” Itsuko said, lowering her eyelashes demurely, “but my parents are anxious for my safety.”


Or are you going to let your parents tell you what to do your whole life? ;)

Only one more day left on the extended deadline to apply to Winter Court 3 pbp forum RPG.

Come play with me (providing I get accepted myself) and affect the canon story and the fate of the Colonies! :daisho:

I'll be playing as an, as of yet, undetermined Crab.
3F 1C Barswanian - 3HR - 1GC - 2PH
Crab Clan * Loyal * Lorekeeper * Jade Hand
When Barswanian comes into play he forgets what he's doing, remove him from the game.
If Barswanian is removed from the game, place him in one of the opponent's provinces face-up. He got lost! If there is another card in the province, discard Barswanian: he forgot what he was doing again.
If Barswanian is in the discard pile, place him on the top of his owner's dynasty deck.
