Scales of the Carp

Return to Ronin Schools

Rank 1

Honor: Same as Ronin

Outfit: Same as Ronin, except replace the daisho with less obvious weaponry.

Benefit: +1 Awareness

Skills: Commerce, Etiquette, Games, Underworld, any 3 skills.

Technique: The Carp Smiles

When making opposed skill rolls involving Commerce, Etiquette or Games, the Ronin's target must drop all dice that roll lower than the Ronin's skill Rank + Trait. Dice that roll above 8 are never dropped. If the Ronin's target has no money or interest involved in the matter at hand then they are immune to this effect.

Rank 1-2

As with the Machi-Kanshisha, page 64 of Way of the Ninja contains a new Technique for this group, and again, has no listed pre-requisite Technique. --Daermon 03:59, 16 Jul 2005 (PDT)
