Isawa Elementalist School
No tradition has a more complete mastery of the way of the spirits than that of the Isawa Elementalist School. Even before the Kami fell to earth, the priests of the Isawa have sought knowledge and understanding of the kami, the Fortunes, and the very elements themselves. Over the many centuries, they have perfected the rituals and supplications to request great boons on behalf of the Phoenix Clan....or terrible banes for casting down upon their enemies. Yet, they know that the spirits require service in exchange for their blessings, making the Isawa Elementalists hesitant to call upon the kami except in times of great need. To do so without cause is to risk upsetting the delicate balance of the natural world...or bring the wrath of the spirits upon them.
