Legend of the Five Rings: Secrets of the Lion

"Ha. What secrets could the Lion have that I need to learn?" - Crane Champion Doji Kuwanan, shortly before the Ancestral Sword of the Lion was stolen from him by Kitsu Osen

Secrets of the Lion takes you deep within the lands of the Lion Clan, exposing their history, culture, organization, and secrets for the first time. Far more than the simple soldiers the Empire believes them to be, the Lion Clan are a multi-faceted group with depths that most outsiders will never understand. Within, you will find:

• Insight into the culture of the Lion Clan and the families that comprise it.
• Information on the major and minor holdings of each Lion family, complete with points of interest, notable individuals, and suggestions on how to incorporate these elements into character backgrounds and adventures.
• An examination of the mysterious and enigmatic Kitsu Tombs, complete with all the information necessary to use it as a focal point in your campaign.
• The true secrets of the Lion Clan - the dark, forgotten shames that they hide from outsiders . . . and themselves.
