Humans of Rokugan

(NOTE: these humans are only to be played in Oriental Adventure games, otherwise go to the normal Humans page)

Humans are the dominant race in OA, as they are in PHB.  In Rokugan, they rule the mighty emerald empire, though they are the youngest race of that young world.  The Humans of Rokugan group themselves into seven major clans, each tracing it's ancestry to one of the Kami (great spirits) who fell to earth, cast out by their father the moon.  The members of these clans share a divine bloodline and a strong sense of heritage and identity.  Certain traits and tendencies, from physical characteristics to particular aptitudes and social roles, define each clan. Descriptions are located on the Clans page
