Way of the Shadowlands *OS

Legend of the Five Rings RPG 1st Edition

by Rich Wulf, Shawn Carman

When the kami fell, the Dark Brother fell further than most. Fu Leng was changed by what he found in within the earth; his foul touch transformed the bright lands of southwest Rokugan into a foul wasteland. Only by uniting were the clans able to defeat him so long ago.

Though Fu Leng was defeated, his legacy lives on. The Shadowlands are the most painful reminder of Fu Leng's power, but the Dark Lord's terrible influence is hardly contained by the Kaiu Walls. The Taint is everywhere. Everyone is vulnerable, even brave and noble samurai. Time is on Jigoku's side. Rokugan begins to turn against itself, and Fu Leng will not sleep forever.

About the author

"I'm a writer, kind of impulsive but shy. Loyal to my friends, tend to take things personally more than I should. Very stubborn, but will listen to reason when I give it a chance. Don't talk much but difficult to shut up when I start. Easily distracted by shiny objects and bright colors. There isn't really much of a point to this page. Not the biggest fan of Myspace in general, except when I want to see hideously ugly websites for the unintended comedy value - it's got a lot of those. At this point it'd just be more effort to take it down than to leave it out there. It's not doing any harm, and sometimes a friend says hi. That can be a good thing. I do check my messages and whatnot but don't expect a lot of updates. You have permission to be heartbroken" - Rich Wulf
