Legend of the Five Rings
Legend of the Five Rings First Edition | Campaign
About the adventure
LBGTQ+ friendly game. This is a campaign set in the Emerald Empire. If you are new to L5R or an old hand that's great. Come learn, play and enjoy the rich culture of Rokugan. Players start out at a tournament testing all their skills as a Samurai. Intrigue abounds.
Game style
Rule of Cool (RoC)
“Rule of Cool” emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a system’s rules as written. Players have the ability to push the limits of the rules or even break core rule mechanics at times if the Game Master thinks it is interesting, fun, or cool enough.
Theater of the Mind
“Theater of the Mind” uses little to no visuals for scene settings and combat. Instead, the narrative imagery comes from the Game Master’s descriptions and character action and movement comes from Players’ descriptions.
Come play the original L5R game

How to prepare
If you can find a pdf of the first edition rules please read through. If not this is a great teaching opportunity for me as a GM. Character creation is standard out of the main book. Most books from 1st edition is allowed. No Way of the Naga and Way of the Monk and no Ratlings.
