Rules Q&A

• Q: After seeing this question a couple of other questions occurred to me, whose answers should be obvious but for some reason I have some sort of niggling doubt.
  I have a personality, Doji X, who has a Regal Furisode attached. Their PH is 3+1. If they are dishonoured their PH will become 0.
  1. If I attach another Regal Furisode is Doji X's PH now 1? 2. If Doji X now rehonours is their PH 3, 4 or 5? 3. Is wearing two Regal Furisodes a social faux pas? Does this answer change if I ensure that the two have fabrics that are dyed in complementary colours?
  EDIT:
  Is it the wording of Shosuro Chizuru ("The target has a maximum Personal Honour of 4") that makes the difference in the other question?
  A: When calculating stats, do all the +/- first, then apply minimums or maximums.
  1. 3 + 1 + 1 (max 0) is 0. 2. 3 + 1 + 1 is 5. 3. Depends on the Clan. Doji X can not only get away with it, but styles will most likely change to require two Furisodes by the time of Winter Court.
  Chizuru is specifically affecting the "apply minimum or maximum" step. Cards override the rulebook, per the Cardinal Rules, so Chizuru's "max 4" will override the rulebook's "max 0". Jon Palmer, "Personal Honour", 4 Jul 2014
• Q: If Seppun Teshan has a Regal Furisode attached to him, could he potentially take the Imperial Favor multiple times per turn?
  A: If by "multiple" you mean can a Tenshan with Regal Furisode lobby for the favor twice in one turn, then the answer is yes, he can. Since Furisode only allows you to lobby again if you've lobbied once this turn, it will not allow you to lobby more than twice. Jon Palmer, "Seppun Teshan, Regal Furisode, and the Imperial Favor", 21 May 2014
• Q: [OBH] Regal Furisode: Does this allow you to use rulebook favor abilities if you have a wind?
  A: No. Permission effects should be read from the narrowest scope possible. Furisode only lets you do twice something you can normally do once; it does not let you do the thing you're normally not allowed to do AND do it twice. Brook Cunningham, "Sun and Moon #rules-questions", 8 May 2026
