ok wow, I totally missed that. So it is a rule for movement using the survival ring. I guess I was wondering if someone had an advantage for having experience riding on a horse, then that would reflect in a technique.
Attacking on horseback is therefore resolved as normal. If the attacker is on horseback and his opponent is not, maybe rule that he cannot attack with melee unless he performs a guard action or can somehow move faster than the horse because of terrain obstacles, etc..

Has anyone ever made rules on fighting on horseback? Should the TN increase?
Riding is covered in the survival skill, so would a survival roll be necessary to move closer to your target?
Any thoughts?

ok, wow. I did not know there were that many. I guess by important I was looking for majorly influencial in their clan, such as big movers or daimyos, champions, etc. I know I could just look at the info online, but I'm trying to keep with the current canon... Ok well how about this. A smaller list might be those important people that have NOT yet appeared in current canon or those that have but that differ from the old canon, such as Doji Hotaru.

I currently live in China where google is blocked. If its not an inconvenience, could anyone provide a list that isnt a googledoc? 🤪

I GM for my group and last night the narrative took an unexpected turn. I'd like some advice on where to possibly take the storyline from people more versed in the lore than I am.
We followed the beginner box, as well as the palace of the emerald champion adventures. the last few sessions were my own take on wedding at Kyotei castle.
So here are our players:
1.A Crab shugenja; winner of the Topaz Championship.
2. A Dragon shugenja; fiance to the crane PC. also, is a coward and a drunk.
3. A crane courtier, living at Kyotei castle for the past five years, fiance to the Dragon PC.
4. A Lion bard, new player, half cousin, twice removed of Agasha Sumiko.
So, in our campaign, the wedding at Kyotei is between two players, and Maeda is having an affair with the crane's father. During the dinner the night before the wedding, the lion bard sort of insulted the groom to be, who, being drunk, demanded they duel. the groom's father forbid it, and the groom, unmasking, yelled "the wedding is off!" and he stormed off with a bottle of sake in each hand.
the groom's father, to atune for his son's blatant dishonor, pleaded to the bride's father that he would commit seppuku. the bride's father accepted.
The next morning, instead of having a wedding ceremony, we had a seppuku ceremony. Maeda's plan to attack the castle was still a go though, and so Itto and she attcked them. The dice were on my side and they captured the PCs.
I decided that in lieu of this, the lion clan had managed to retake castle Kyotei and had killed every crane person at the castle, including the PC's parents. The lion and the crane are now officially at war.
So what now? it went so off the rails on where I thought the story was going(I was hoping to start with dark tides, then mask of the oni after this as they continued their careers as magistrates/Yorikis). I was thinking of doing a prison escape maybe, except one of the PCs is a lion and isnt a prisoner, and also unlikely to betray his clan... Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

very informative responses. I'm a long time GM but new to L5R. It's sometimes hard to think of situations where there are no right choices and opportunities for honor loses on the fly, so i try to have a few ideas written down that I use. I'm constently worried that my players' honor and glory are going to spike out of control...
On an added note, does anyone know if anyone has compiled a collection of situations like these to throw at players and if so, could you please share a link 😁

If the PCs, a group of emerald magistrate find themselves in a village and discover that the local daimyo is cheating on his taxes to feed his people who are starving, do the PCs lose honor by breach of compassion for reporting him, or do they lose honor by breach of loyalty to the emperor by NOT reporting him?
I'm thunking, they lose honor either way... if I'm correct, how much would they lose?

My question would be part rules/part narrative.
Are there rules for changing schools/having ranks in multiple schools? If not, are there homebrew rules created that seem to work reasonably well?
Also, storywise, what circumstances would allow someone to do that. Is marrying into another clan such a circumstance?
any answers would help. Thanks.

It does mention that the roads are being repaired and so no one is allowed to use them, forcing the players to go off road and take an 8 day trek to the palace. I was trying to anticipate my players' choice and find a suitable excuse as to why they wouldn't just go with her. Thanks Neilcell for auggesting it will take time to prepare appropriate gifts and i think this will work well. thanks!

How does Sumiko beat the players to the palace of the emerald Champion?
She meets with the players and offers them the magistrate position, telling them to go to the palace. The PCs are given a time constraint, and when they get there, Sumiko is waiting for them... Am I missing a bit of information? help please!

Alright, so one of my players wants to play telekinetic, but the move powers have the same text as the bind. was this a mistake or is there no text for the move psionic powers yet?

I've run dark sun campaigns in 3.5e, savage worlds, and even fate core. with my new genesys core book purchase, i was looking for a conversion for Dark Sun. Boy am I excited for this. Luctius has been hard at work(or was. the last post was a while ago😝) I am new to genesys so i am still wrapping my head around the system, but i love what I'm reading so far.
I am meeting with my group tonight after finishing an excellent Coriolis game. We plan to submit ideas for our next game and I hope we all vote for Dark Sun!

ah, yes. thanks. Im still getting used to the rules. My gaming group get into skirmish conflicts once every three sessions on average so the complexities of the combat rules arent cemented in my head yet.
