[Day - 2 EE] Welcome Dinner [Event]
Posted: Wed Oct 21, 2020 5:44 pm
Event Type: Main Event
Participants: By Clan (Excluding Crab and Imperial Families)
Timeslots: Early Evening
Description: The dinner is much more austere affair as the Crab and Crane enter by rank and take seats according to importance excluding the bride and groom who enter last and sit at the table on a raised dais as the guests of honor.
Then before the meals are brought out each attending Great Clan will offer a gift to the couple, words of knowledge, and then a display of martial skill to honor the House of Fuboshi. Hida Fuboshi takes the seat of Honor and once all Clans have performed she will announce the meal and the ceremony has ended and the dinner begins.
Rules: Each Great Clan in attendance will need three members, if they have less then some members will have to do more than one task but only if they have less than three members. Magic is not allowed. Minor Clans can join as well but since they are Minor they can work as a team across multiple Minor Clans to form their team of three.
Offering the Gift: While typically in most courts the gift giving is done with joy and boisterous nature this is a solemn affair and Fuboshi shows no mirth. As the highest rank she accepts the gifts on behalf of the couple. The Gift Giver makes an Etiquette + Willpower check versus TN 20, with success granting 1 Dinner point. For every 2 raises they add an additional Dinner point to the total. Failure means that Fuboshi is insulted, a minor breach of Etiquette, but if raises are made this becomes a major breach of Etiquette and if the roll is failed by 10 or more, raises or not, then it is a blasphemous Breach of Etiquette. Yes, Benten's Blessing will apply.
Lore of the Crab and Crane: The next will have to offer their knowledge on the Crab or Crane, or their knowledge of the Shadowlands. For the purposes of this event Lore Shadowlands is not a Low skill. The player makes a Lore Shadowlands + Intelligence at TN 15, Lore Crab + Intelligence at TN 20, or Lore Crane + Intelligence at a TN 25; success on this roll grants 1 Dinner point and every 5 points above the TN get an additional Dinner point. Failing this roll grants no points and failing by 10 or more insults Fuboshi and they lose .2 Glory for their trouble.
Martial Display: The player makes a weapon display for Hida Fuboshi, to show that they have mastered the basic weapons of the model samurai. But she will not have them sully her halls with poor use of Hida’s sacred Tetsubo so they will display Kenjutsu + Agility, Spears + Agility, and Kyujutsu + Reflexes for her judgment. The player can use the weapons in any order with the TN starting at 10, then the next at TN 15, and the final at 20; success grants 1 Dinner point plus 1 additional point per every two raises on each weapon. Failing this has no effect but failing with raises reduces their Glory by .1 per raise called.
Rewards/Outcome: The Great Clan that earns the most Dinner Points will be publicly honored by Fuboshi and each member will earn 1 full rank of Glory.
