Good. Share it with the men. And by men I mean all of us except the Kakita.

... that includes Agent Sinistra's Lion Shugenja? confused

No. She's a Lion clanner, therefore she's a man in her own self.

Thank goodness! For a moment there, I was worried that I was going to be stuck hangin' out with the pritteh boy.  

[Rain Yupa]

I have someone named Sutiiven who's interested in probably being either a Dragon or Mantis courtier.

EDIT: Decision made. Mantis Courtier.

Send PMs to two of the people who had showed interest. No response yet.

Psychofish is still considering, but backlogged by school stuff, I think? He hasn't finished reading my overviews of the clans, but so far, he MIGHT be a Sparrow Clan Samurai.

Oh no, darling-san. You're one of us, the cool guys. You sit with us and be awesome. Besides, we Lions gotta stick together, y'know?

Well, I potentially have a Hare Bushi and Mantis Courtier that Zanzen can get along with? sweatdrop

Kojiro will work with anyone if his honor or his clan compels it.
I kind of worry about your character, Keith. Mistake the wrong samurai for the wrong gender and you may wind up blind. ><

DESCRIPTION

Yoritomo Hisashi stands at 5'2", and weighs 131 lbs. His dark hair is kept in a short and simple ponytail, and his skin is fairly pale. In conjunction with his height, this causes him to appear as if he has a slightly weaker constitution than the average samurai. Despite this he keeps an air of confidence about him and a general presence that his (occasionally unsavory) Mantis brethren would be proud of.

If you mean the Kakita, then I guess it would be an insult to call him a man.

I'll remember that when I fire my siege weapon at you. Hand built you know.  

[Plainsfox]

Keith, I'm a little confused by your character's description and might have just missed it....but does your character wear a patch, a glass eye, or does he have the socket open and empty?

"A Matsu bushi arrived after the shugenja did, and was wearing a patch over one of her eyes. She was easily taller than the Crab..."

I SEE WHAT YOU DID THERE.  

[Plainsfox]

Mask got in the way. ninja

But to be honest, how do you Lions tell?
