The Way of the Phoenix

A sourcebook for the Phoenix Clan in Rokugan, covering its history, the Council of Five, the city of Gisei Toshi, and figures such as Asako, Isawa, and Shiba. It includes character creation options for elemental specialists, Asako Henshin, and Void-focused ishiken, along with new skills, techniques, advantages, disadvantages, ancestors, and research rules. The book also details Phoenix magic, custom spell creation, the Oracles, the Tao of Shinsei, Void travel through the Fifth Ring, and the story of the ronin Isawa Dairya. Player and Game Master information is interspersed throughout the volume rather than separated into marked sections.
