The emperor sits in his throne room, listening intently to a Hiruma that has spotted the shadow warriors mobilizing for something special. But he's not sure what yet. The emperor, Toturi The Third, rests his head on his arm and sighs. It was clear to him that whatever the followers of Fu Leng were planning, it was not good. He would have to cut it off at the source, he would finally confront the Shadowlands in their territory, they were going to perish forever.
Emperor Toturi motioned for a servant, he orated the following to him, "This letter is being sent to the daimyo of every great and minor clan in rokugan, you are all being asked to send to the Capital a single warrior you deem capable of facing the following mission. The elected individual will move into the Shadowlands and attempt an assassination on one of the most important Liuetenants in the Shadowland Army, Da Rong. Please respond with your elected individual as soon as possible."
The Clans respond quickly, except for the Crane, Lion, Dragon, and Scorpion. The Crane had all of their men and women on duty protecting an important courtier on her way to the Senket Empire. The Lion were on campaign against an army of rogue nezumi. The dragon simply did not respond for some reason. The Scorpion responded that they had a man in mind, but he was currently in the Shadowlands, and would meet up with the party when they crossed the border.
A week and a half later the representatives of the other clans presented themselves at the palace. Hiruma Saito of the Crab clan, Ujina Masaru of the Hare clan, Seppun Ranbo of the Imperial families, Tsuruchi Jin of the Mantis clan, Isawa Suke of the Phoenix clan, and Moto Amaya of the Unicorn clan. They proceeded to the throne room and sat before the Emperor. He told them of their mission, explaining that it was beleived that Da Rong resides in Hankyo sano Kappa, ruling over the goblin tribes there. He finishes his speech saying this, "I am going to provide all of you with new weapons and armor for this journey, so, what do you all require."
orate what weapons and what kind of armor you all would like. remember you are speaking with the emperor.
