It’s an important note, to understand that there are secrets to uncover and masks to see through throughout the setting.
Interestingly, there’s also a sidebar that stress the fact that it’s an in-universe history, and thus possibly inaccurate due to everything from simple error to political spin. It’s much more comprehensive than Bayushi Kachiko’s story to Doji Hotaru in the core rulebook, detailing many of the major milestones in the history of Rokugan that created the Emerald Empire we know today.Īs setting primers go, it’s a solid start. The introduction is actually a history overview chapter, written in-universe by Imperial Scribe Miya Chinatsu, covering everything from Lady Sun and Lord Moon and the creation of the world to the present day of 1123 IC. What’s actually within its pages? Is it worth getting yourself? I’m going through the book chapter by chapter to find out! So it is that Emerald Empire, the first major sourcebook for the Fantasy Flight Games’ edition of Legend of the Five Rings, has come into being. If one is to survive, even thrive, in the land of Rokugan then one must know Rokugan: its places, its people, its customs and history and spirits. Simply knowing the rules for Legend of the Five Rings is not enough even passing your gempukku and earning your place as a samurai in the Topaz Championship will not truly prepare you for the trials ahead.
