Lots of new stuff as usual going on here...enough so I keep forgetting to update my blog.

In the RPG Tools, I've added Mass Battles for Small Groups which gives a very different experience of mass battles for 4th or 5th edition, focusing on a squad/RPG party dynamic rather 'going it alone' or playing the commanders.

I've also added a Demeanors Table, to help GMs access and use the NPC demeanors more quickly, a necessary but easily overlooked part of 5th Ed.

A new item entirely is the New L5R Timeline, which is in Google Docs for ease of updating but keeps events in order in the new L5R fictions. If you need to know if it's summer or winter, or the age of various NPCs, or which events occur relevant to other events in the fiction, that should help.

The Clan Pack Booklets are from the end pages of the various clan packs, except for the Phoenix and Scorpion clan packs. These pages have lore information for FFG L5R that is not available in the same form elsewhere. The Phoenix and Scorpion packs aren't included because they hold fiction and therefore are available on other pages like kazenoshiro63445525.wordpress.com/chrysanthemum/.
This page also has some of the lore from the end of the Novellas, which are not available in the official PDFs.

In the Fiction from the RPG section, I've made available the The Academy Library where quotes from different RPG sources from other works can be found. Always useful if your monk needs to drop some Tao on someone.

Finally, in Fan Fiction, I have some Postcards from Otosan Uchi about some young magistrates in the Ruby Dojo, and more stories from Tales of Golden Petal Village.

Please enjoy!
