Kaito Kazuma - Antek

What Does yourcharacter know? All Phoenix Clan characters have a greater awareness of the following topics:

You have a general awareness of the politics within Phoenix lands. You can name major family heads and other leaders, and you know their respectivepositions and allegiances.

You are familiar with the religious practices of Rokugan, such as the rites practiced by various priesthoods, the invocations of shugenja, the Tao of Shinsei, and even the traditions that existed before the Kami, such as the Fortunist traditions of the Isawa and the animist practices of the Yobanjin who dwell in the Great Wall of the North Mountains.

You know some of the most significant kami who reside in Phoenix lands by name from stories or perhaps even personal interaction.

You know the names and locations of all major shrines in Rokugan.

What Does Bushidō Mean to Your Clan?

• Righteousness drives the samurai of the Phoenix Clan in their pursuits, and they are willing to sacrifice themselves to ensure the right thing is done. They know that when samurai do not govern their lands justly, the Heavens themselves will voice their displeasure.
• At the same time, some truths must not be revealed to the world, and some mysteries are not meant even for the other samurai clans. The Phoenix Clan takes a selective view of Sincerity, certain in their belief that they are the best equipped to protect and wield certain knowledge. See page 301 for more information on how these can affect your honor and glory.

Kaito Shrine Keepers work alongside priests to protect temples across Phoenix lands, or keep smaller shrines on their own. The Kaito learn mystical arts to propitiate the kami—sometimes even serving as vessels for them— and practical ones to maintain the shrines. Shrine Keepers make use of protective magic—such as ofuda, paper charms—and spiritually enhanced archery to defend shrines against threats both mystical and mundane.

Techniques:

Kata:

Hawk’s Precision Rank 1

While most bushi are expected to be proficient in the use of the bow, some are terrifyingly accurate, capable of hitting targets well beyond the expected engagement range.
Activation: When you make a Martial Arts [Ranged] check, you may spend (opportunity) in the following way:
(opportunity)+: Treat the range of the weapon as 1 higher per (opportunity)spent this way, to a maximum of range 6.

Invocations:

Tempest of Air Rank 1

Stormy Vial (Alchemy), Howl of Isora (Fortunist), Flap of the Wyvern's Wings (Foreign)
The shugenja beseeches the air spirits to lash out all around them, calling buffeting winds to push foes backward or even hurl them to the ground. Activation: As an Attack action, you may make a TN 3 Theology (Air) check targeting each character at range 2–3.
Effects: If you succeed, blasts of wind smite each target. Each target suffers supernatural damage equal to your Air Ring and must resist with a TN 4 Fitness check (Earth 5, Fire 2) or suffer the Disoriented condition.
New Opportunities
Air (opportunity)+: Each target who fails their Fitness check is also pushed 1 range band away from you per (opportunity) spent this way.

Rituals:

Commune with the Spirits Rank 1

The ritualist centers their mind on one of the Elements, appealing to the spirits in their environment and seeking their counsel or boon. Priests and laypeople are able to use this ritual to receive less specific guidance from the spirits, such as a leaf that falls to the ground pointing in the direction of the person or thing they are seeking.
Activation: As a downtime activity or Support action, you may make a TN 1 Theology check using Air, Earth, Fire, Water, or Void to appeal to nearby spirits of that Element (appeal to the departed, such as ancestor spirits, and other non-elemental supernatural presences, if using Void) for aid.
Effects: If you succeed, choose and receive one of the following boons from the spirit or spirits you contacted:

• Sense the Kami: Detect all spirits and uses of their magic by shugenja within a number of range bands equal to the ring you used plus your bonus successes.
• Spiritual Knowledge: Learn one fact the spirits know about the area.
• Elemental Gift: The kami deliver a small amount of the Element in question to you. For instance, a prayer to a water kami might cause it to begin raining lightly, for a short time, but it might also cause you to run across a stream, or even find groundwater. In contrast, a prayer to fire kami might bring forth a small shower of sparks, while a prayer to an air kami might elicit a gust of wind. Praying to an earth kami might cause you to stumble across a large stone, or find a small patch of arable ground amid a wasteland. Prayers to the ancestors may allow the petitioner to find something that belonged to an ancestor in a time of need.

New Opportunities
(opportunity): Reduce the TN of your next check to interact with or appeal to kami or supernatural presences of this Element by 1.
(opportunity)+: If you succeed, receive one additional boon per (opportunity) spent this way. Each boon can only be received one time per activation.

Cleansing Rite Rank 1

The ritualist sanctifies a person or group, anointing them with sacred substances that drive out unholy presences and malign sorcery.
Activation: As a downtime activity, you may make a TN 3 Theology (Void) check targeting up to five characters to remove spiritual contaminants from the targets before they spread. Note that this cannot remove a Shadowlands Taint disadvantage once it has taken hold, but it can prevent this spiritual contamination from taking root after a character is exposed.
Effects: If you succeed, remove the Afflicted condition from the target. New Opportunities:
Void (opportunity): If one or more targets is an Otherworldly being, you become aware of it after completing the ritual—but you do not know which target.
Void (opportunity)+: Choose one additional target per spent this way.
Void (opportunity)+: Instead of targeting characters, you may target an area that encompasses a number of range bands around you equal to (opportunity) spent this way. Remove the Defiled terrain quality from this area. If it is a deeply unhallowed place that has long been the domain of evil, the Defiled quality returns after one day, plus additional days equal to your bonus successes.
