Rulings
- Is a shugenja, but is not a Personality. It cannot attach spells, but it can be given the Shadowlands trait by the Phoenix Stronghold, sacrifice itself under Not This Day, gain Fear 4 from Fearful Populace, be purchased by a School of Wizardry, be bowed by Summon Faeries, etc. [RD, l5rinfo, 12/19/96] Accumulated Rulings, February 8, 2000, p. 41
- Can naturally bow as a shugenja, without using its special ability, to assist any of your Rituals, including ones not cast by the Personality it's attached to. This contributes its actual Chi to the Ritual instead of the 1C that its ability would give. [DW, email, 4/23/97] Accumulated Rulings, February 8, 2000, p. 41
