Kitsuki Investigator School

Out of the many schools of Rokugan, the Kitsuki Investigator is among the most recent, founded when Agasha Kitsuki saved the life of the Mirumoto daimyo by the use of evidence. The Kitsuki Investigators use their methods of observation, experimentation, logic, and reason to determine the truth, which puts them outside the norm of the Rokugani testimony-based judiciary system. Thus, being a Kitsuki Investigator is frequently an uphill battle, and earning the trust of figures of authority can be difficult, but the Kitsuki's determination is more than a match for the bias against their methodology. The Investigators tend to find work as magistrates and justiciars, in addition to serving as general courtiers and representatives of the Dragon to other Clans who might find the Togashi monks more off-putting.
