Doji Diplomat School
No one plays the game of court better than the Crane. They wrote the rules, after all. The Doji Diplomats are the choreographers for the intricate dance of gift giving, favor exchange, and precisely worded letters and invitations that make up said game. The Doji are always on the cutting edge of fashion and culture, and the Diplomats need not use a single unkind word, not when their silence can speak volume and a slight gesture can bring victory or failure. Their network of contacts, favors, and invitations allows them to weigh the shifting tides of politics across Rokugan and gently tilt the scales in their favor.
