Rokugan has never belonged to humans alone. Ages before the dawn of the Empire, great civilizations built by non-human races, such as the naga and ogres, marked the land. Though their civilizations are gone now, their descendants still dwell upon the earth and in the seas. Since the catastrophic Fall of Fu Leng, oni - spawn of Jigoku - and their terrible offspring have walked the Shadowlands and warred against the Empire without cease. A dazzling variety of creatures great and small have always been a part of this world - some fearsome, some benign, some visitors from Spirit Realms. No understanding of Rokugan would be complete without them. Creatures of Rokugan: Third Edition is a comprehensive catalogue of the remarkable creatures and monsters that populate Rokugan and the Shadowlands, presented to conform to Legend of the Five Rings Roleplaying Game Third Edition rules. You will meet all manner of creatures, spirits, oni and ghosts here, from the sorcerous ashalan to the bizarre zokujin: Over 200 entries, including some creatures never before described for any edition of Legend of the Five Rings Roleplaying Game.

This book is a must-have resource for every Legend of the Five Rings Roleplaying Game campaign. Creatures of Rokugan: Third Edition is a rules supplement, and its use requires the Legend of the Five Rings Roleplaying Game ThirdEdition core rulebook.

Of the Great Clans of Rokugan, three have always embraced the art of war with a dedication that their peers cannot match: the Crab, who keep the Shadowlands at bay by sheer force of arms; the Lion, whose founder wrote the definitive Rokugani treatise on military strategy; and the Unicorn, whose tradition of exceptional horsemanship and unconventional ways have made them a formidable opponent on the battlefield. Masters of War views each of them through their contributions to Rokugani military practice and history.

Rokugan is a place of enchantment, as well as honor and courage. The Elemental spirits known as the kami inhabit every place and every thing, and those who are blessed with the gift of communicating directly with them can tap into their power and unleash forces that others can scarcely imagine. The kami that reside in physical objects have also been known to awaken on their own, or in response to human stimulation, thereby creating items with supernatural powers that are both revered and respected in all corners of the Empire. br&gt; Prayers and Treasures is a comprehensive guide to magic in Legend of the Five Rings Roleplaying Game Third Edition, encompassing not only the shugenja’s art, but also the vast range of magic items that can be found in Rokugan.
