Hello. My name is Matt. I'm 36 and an old fan of the L5R gameline,
especially the older editions. If you're interested in joining please hit me up on Discord at
Oppressor#2824 so I can see if you're a good fit or not. Currently I
hope to run this on Mondays or Tuesdays around 8:00 PM/20:00 US CST/GMT -6 though
thats possibly negotiable. This game will be played weekly and will
require a microphone, Discord, and Roll20. As a DM I'm looking to run something a
little bit different than normal with a higher level campaign all about
political intrigue and messing with the core setting to make things fresh but relatable. Anyhow here's a bit of a blurb about my Campaign from my Discord Server: This Campaign will imagine such a what-if scenario and follow the altered destiny of the young prince Hantei Daigotsu and his closest companions as they navigate a bold new era where key events of the original timeline never took place as they were. It is an alternate history take on the early 1100s in Rokugan, where formative events such as the Scorpion Clan Coup or Lion-Crane War never occured and the Hantei Dynasty seems even stronger at the expense of the Great Clans and the Empire's many enemies. Exploring alternate history and thus destiny will be a focal point for this group. Players should design diverse characters that would logically be comfortable in the principal NPC's entourage - the White Prince Hantei Daigotsu. Pcs are not random ronin or zero-to-hero samurai. Instead their status will reflect them as heirs, cousins, nieces, or nephews to the various powerful daimyo of the Great Clans or prominent members of the remaining Imperial Families. As such PCs will represent these various interests as frequent or permanent guests within Otosan Uchi and the Imperial Palace. Players could even explore playing as altered canon characters if the concept works. Moreover despite their outward allegiances, all player characters should also consider their relations and views of Hantei Daigotsu himself whether they be his yojimbo, advisors, or friends.
