b) intelligence is highly debatable, but because the GM need to find some limitations to the maho for the sake of balance, so far in these games the blood has had to come from humans (or in one case, Togashi himself). If anyone could have a trivial access to large blood pool, much of the maho would become a balance issue.


Listen, the guy who designed the game more or less stated that game balance wasn't a thing he believed in ;)

Also, maho is already decidedly imbalanced, it's not like easier access to blood from a game design standpoint makes it radically more imbalanced.


Yeah, I am aware that L5R as a system has never been meant to be particularly balanced. However I believe that the GM on pbp's ought to make sure that everyone can enjoy the game, and that involves plugging holes left by the original developers.


Sometimes the very holes you pointed out in the original alpha design/playtest process!

So... remember this incident from a couple of days ago?

I was thinking about it and it occurred to me... Crows don't have the whole "harbingers of death and decay" thing going in Rokugan that they do in the modern West. In fact, they're associated with purity and Shinsei and monks and stuff, being on the Brotherhood of Shinsei's mon and everything. So... having undead Taint crows seems like a super extra very bad sign.

I can't believe it took me this long for that to occur to me.

I just took my daughter to see Beauty and the Beast, and my wife insisted that after I have a talk with her about how imprisoning people is not okay, and it's not a way to start a healthy relationship.
