First half of Bushido’s Wave 23
Oki Shisa – Temple of Ro-Kan
The defence of the oldest temples and most sacred shrines is often entrusted to the great Oki Shisa. Mountains of ever watchful stone, still and silent for decades but always ready. None know how many Oki Shisa there are but these holy wardens are the bane of those who would attempt to manipulate their Ki against the Temple or hold sway over the land. The enchantments that gift the Shisa protection also imbue the stone with a keenness akin to a Masamune blade.
Kami of Choking Fog and Blighted Earth – Cult of Yurei
For all the benevolent and benign Kami that fill the Jwar Isles, there are some that have become twisted, just as the Temple of Rokan has enlisted the Kami in the aid of the people and protection of the lands. These dark, corrupted mockeries are a curse against all that is natural and sacred. Their mere presence taints and blights the area around them. The motives unknown, their actions seem bent on destruction and death.
Goshi – Prefecture of Ryu
From Ugo to Eddo, the loyal servants of the Takashi can be called upon to bolster the ranks of the Dragon’s armies. Their knowledge of the terrain invaluable in giving the Prefecture an added advantage in battle.
