[b]@UnendingEmpire[/b]: Glad to hear it. [b]@Lord Pie[/b]: If you want to support Hojo you can, but I think more people are going to lean more on defeating him. Hojo is the 'Dong Zhuo' of this roleplay (Dong Zhuo being part of China's Warring States, not Sengoku). I will check out Samurai Adams, thanks for the suggestion. Also, in this roleplay, the Kaiyu Emperors did not delegate nearly as much power to their Shoguns like their Japanese counterparts did; the Emperors in this roleplay made a lot of the decisions themselves, which is why the Kaiyu were so greatly appreciated; in the absence of an Emperor and an heir, all power has been delegated to Shogun Hojo (as per general law), so at this point in time the hierarchy [i]would[/i] be switched so the Shogun has more power, but generally the Emperor would have not delegated as much power to him so I wrote it as you saw it; as soon as Ina Kaiyu reveals herself (which probably won't be soon) then more people are going to be inclined to listen and support a Kaiyu heiress instead of Shogun Hojo (or whatever other popular leaders rise up afterwards); it is the simple fact that she is 'royal' and the common people would much rather follow her than anyone else, despite her being 10. It's like if a great King disappeared for a few years, then suddenly returns, more people will probably be inclined to rejoin him. Like I said guys, this is still up in the air; got some stuff to work on before I host it, you know how it is.
