"With the ascension of Iweko Seiken to the throne of Rokugan as Iweko II, the Empire celebrates the continuity of the Iweko Dynasty. Blessed by Heavens to rule Rokugan with wisdom and honor, the Emperor nonetheless needs to ensure he will himself have an heir to carry his name in due time. Looking to create stronger bonds between himself and one of the clans who tutored him, the Emperor will soon choose a bride. Beyond a simple marriage, such a choice will have tremendous impact on the political scene of Rokugan, and courtiers of all clans are doing everything they can to ensure the Emperor’s choice comes from within the ranks of their clan. At the same time, the forces of the Spider scheme to ensure the Emperor has reason to regret his disdain for their clan.
The winner of this tournament may select any one female personality from their faction to serve as the bride of the Emperor, a position often referred to as the Empress but also known as the Imperial Consort. Any female personality introduced via a personality card or previously existing within the established story, such as one of the named but as-yet-uncarded daimyo of the various families within the Great Clans, is suitable. The chosen personality must be unmarried, of course, and in the event that the winner is unsure of his choice’s eligibility, the Story Team will work with him to ensure that he has a list of eligible candidates."
This used to be one of our most important sources of power in the Empire, and I think we should take it back. So I will be starting off with a bounty:
$100 for the Crane who selects Kakita Kae as the Bride of the Emperor.
Not only is Kakita Kae one of our coolest characters, having both political connections and the notoriety of defeating the Dark Naga, but Gio is awesome and I favor player vanity characters for any story prize. I hope others will pitch in on this bounty. We should take back what is ours.
UPDATES: Additional bounties -
$250 from Kakita Kae
$100 and a Kakita Kae playmat from Doji Azai
$50 from Asahina Shimato
$50 from Daidoji Tacticus
$54 from Kakita Kasukaru
$100 from Doji Pheelyp
$25 from Kyle Patrick Smith (via Facebook)
Also, Doji Hoturi pledges $50, Kakita Shiro pledges $30, Kakita Hideo pledges $20, Doji Hajime pledges $20, and Mirumoto Daisuke pledges $101, for ANY Crane Empress.
Togashi Jo pledges $100 for ANY Crane Empress.
That puts the cash total at potentially $1050! Thanks for the support!
