For Gambit: Crane do not equal courtiers. Crane seek perfection in everything, be it the courts, the battlefield, the arts. While her card is a poor example of her personality lets break it down: 4 force and battle ability = strive for perfection in warfare. 6 chi and built in duel = strive for perfection in the arts (as true dueling is an art form). Favor related trait and an ability that gains honor = strive for perfection in the courts. Name me one other Crane personality that is more true Crane than that? Nagori and Yasuyo are very good Cranes, but they are not our Champion. And at this point I do not think they would be if she were to die.
We'd get a caretaker style role until her son/daughter's old enough, right? Most likely Noritoshi (head of the Kakita family, especially given there history) I'd think. But thats just a thought on my part.
And I agree with your comment here, but would like to ask one other question: what other Champion in CE is as close to there 'personality' as Domotai's?Just a minor curiosity.

Crane seek perfection in everything.

Excellence, not Perfection.

Perfection is not a Bushido virtue, it is a Shourido virtue.

Acceptance of the inability to achieve Perfection is humility. Becoming Excellent is attainable.

Seek ye Excellence.

I am reminded of a quote i heard somewhere, and I paraphrase:

"Continuously seek Perfection, but know it is unattainable. Then you will find Excellence."

...also, this.

EDIT: as a follow up... Is Paneki all blotchy and gross yet? :p

Unofficial official sources say that Paneki is leading the vote almost 2:1 against Daigotsu. The other ones number's are insignificant.

We must not buy their fruits:
Who knows upon what soil they fed
Their hungry thirsty roots?

I hope they don't off Daigotsu with this.  I happen to like him as a villain.
