I am offically declaring my intentions to form a samurai unit here within Mittelmarch. To all those that have Japanese, Rokugani, or any oriental culture as your persona background, I personally welcome you to join arms with me in defense of not only Mittelmarch, but the whole of the Land Between the Lands. This invitation extends out to all within the Lands. Further details will be discussed in the near future.

holy shnikies,...........the Japanese revolution has begun!
I guess I am part of it by default, since I'm a ronin,....... hmmm....gotta sit down and figure how all of this would tie in with my storyline......
....and all of this is happening when my car breaks down, got mad credit card debt, gotta search for a new job, and MIGHT have to move in back in with my mom.....lolz.....good timing, Tatsumura,.....good timing indeed. (srsly, I would like to join, i just got a beef with the Fates and bad timing, that's all) talk to you later
Sanjuro
PS: any new guys reading this SHOULD become a Japanese persona, if so, I will give free japanese lessons to those ppl.

I am thinkig up ideas on the mon as we speak. Plus, thinking up a few ideas on unit layout, though I have one idea that goes hand and hand with the first 4-8 people (outside of myself) that join up.

To all those that are wishing to be a part of the Shoganate, I ask that if you can make it to the Battle'Athon tommorow, that you do so. It will be there that I will unveil the Mon for the Shogunate, as well as the final chosen name of the unit. I will also be holding a small tournament amonst the members. I will be late showing up, but should be there around 2.

I am honored beyond words. As a show of my gratitude, I grant the title of Daimyo to Kibagami Sanjuro, Arashi Okami, Kiyoko Sasaki, and Fuuma Kotaro. By such, I leave you to form your families as you see fit. Those that serve you, shall use your name and mon, along with the mon of the Shogunate. Let us bring the blades and fury of the Tou Fuu Shogunate against not only the the enemies of Mittelmarch, but against all enemies that would threaten the Land between the Lands.

so are you going to make a category on our boards? cause i think it'd be killer.... not only that but.. to make buttons for your unit.. that you can pass out at events... And maybe little rice paddy Hats ^^ Cause i want one.. but out of all serious-ness.. I have red Samurai armor.. and not that this is anything like Wow.. I'd be glad to go All out Samurai Once and awhile.. and apply a Alt-ego for Yon'Samurai.
"Scottish Samurai"... I love that ring..

Creating a oriental persona would be just fine, you will simply have to choose which daimyo you serve directly under (being that Sanjuro is in Aethenu, that would seem to make since ). I plan on creating a website for the Shogunate, that way as not to impose on the various realm's websites. I also have to get the contract info from Dagorhir as well, since we have officially have 5 members and another 2 waiting in the wings.

*nods discreatly to Sanjuro San* The Samurai is swift.. the River is swift... The Tiger is Swift... the Man running with white Skin... is Swift. *Does weird hand gestures as he's talking*.... By all means my alt would fight under Kibagami Sanjuro San.... I've gotta get my helmet done for that specific reason now :-P HAI!
Not to boost your ego or anything.. Or kill it but.. When I'm not pressed by my duties on and off field. I'd love to throw Eastern Foam around with you Chaps.
And your right... My Gaelic name does have a weird.. Japanese sound...

ah, i see how it is......you just want me to make you a hakama at a discount price since you want to join my clan. (but seriously, how would this work out, like RP-wise, and i know you are a busy man, real life-wise?)

I'm assuming rp-wise, it will be a seperate persona, much how Nate does Baethor, and Graall (sp?). Also, for those of you that keep wondering what the Mon looks like, I can't seem to get any pics to get on this forum, so I will give you directions where to find it. You can see it by going to google, searching for kamon. The first image will be a sheet of mons. click on it, and continue to do so until you get it full screen. It is the last one in the fourth row. The "spindle" with the outer circle. Some of you may notice that Kiyoko Sasaki seems to have a slightlly modified version of it in his avatar. The Shogunate mon will corrispond with black, white and red. Those are the colors for the Shogunate mon (as well as my colors). This brings up another point, Daimyo's, make sure you pick out and post what your family's colors will be, along with the mon you select. I have created a website on freewebs, and am currently working on it. It isn't much right now, but www.freewebs.com/toufuushogunate/ is the website.
