The Hare Clan, Version II House Rules by
Scott Gearin Check out Scott's detailed History
of the Hare Clan.
Rank 1: The Leap of the Hare - The bushi has studied his guide closely. The TN for any action
involving a leap is reduced by 10.
Rank 2: Outracing the Oni - The immense speed of the Hare is revealed. Add the bushi's Honor
rank to his Initiative rolls and any rolls involving Reflexes.
Rank 3: Stand by the River - The Hare's stand against the Oni inspires the bushi. Spend two Void
points to roll extra dice to hit (but not to damage) an opponent equal to the opponent's Shadowlands
rank for the rest of the fight. This may be done only once per opponent per fight.
Rank 4: The Jade Elixer - The Usagi guard the secret of using jade in herbalism. Using a single
piece of jade (1 koku worth), the bushi may reduce the TN of any Herbalism roll by 15 and double the
rate of recovery of a patient under thier care.
Rank 5: The Emperor's Blessing - The bushi may never recieve Shadowlands points except by his
own action. Being in the Shadowlands or being targetted by Maho offers no threat of corruption. Using
the taint to roll extra dice for his traits would cause an increase in rank as ususal.
Outfit: Bushi - (all items considered to be of Average quality) Katana, Wakizashi, 2 pieces of Jade,
Travelling Pack, Kimono, Formal Robes, any 2 weapons, and 2 koku.
