    The clan leader also has the stats army size, and army training, both starting at one. With wealth and prestige, I didn't want to complicate things with different tiers, but effectively, 1 wealth for a patriarch represents your money after the expenses of dealing with your lands. Effectively, you have a "business" bank account for money spent on your clan, and a "personal" bank account for money spent on yourself, if that makes any sense. It's the same for prestige. Your clan's prestige will rise as the clan has successes, and your own prestige will rise when your character individually succeeds.

    Good idea with the wife. Lots of narrative threads that could come about. Is she a manipulative old crone who pushes her husband to dishonour, like Lady MacBeth? A beautiful trophy wife that doesn't care about her husband and seeks a younger lover? A genuinely loving partner? A woman pushed into an arranged marriage who fears the lord's reputation? Lots of options for where that story could go.

    Get all that sorted out first. I should be relatively ready to get on with things, but focus on schoolwork first. I know my discord friend does plan on hosting their game here, but not so soon anyway, so I’m ready to do things though definitely keep real priorities as a focus.

    I have added army stats to character sheet.

    As for wife - he would marry for political reasons to secure the loyalty of one of the clans he would find worthy. So she would probably be middle-aged and somewhat skilled. The clan that he would choose would be somewhat skilled - with ninja, trade or some strategic position.
    But if you have a concept of your own, feel free to use

    Name: Jian Zhao
    Gender: male
    Age: 20
    Appearance: A youthful man, with long jet-black hair kept in a ponytail. Slightly above the time's average in height. Striking feature: unusually pale irises.
    Sexual Orientation: Straight

    History: Born to a prostitute in the Eternal Empire, all Jian ever knew of his father's family was the crest his mother had given him. Life was difficult as the bastard son of a whore, but he grew up strong and healthy. In his teenage years, Jian soon learned to work and barter in his hometown. The proprietor of his mother's brothel kept the youth busy, not wanting a hormonal teenager around his establishment constantly. Jian learned what he could from people around town, a retired swordsman taking a liking to him and the local wiseman teaching him a few tricks. The old man told him that he was attuned to Yin, water and the moon.

    Jian came of age, and for a time set out to see the other regions of the Empire as a vagabond. Taking odd jobs and hunting bandits, he made a living by the sword.

    In the great city of Qibao, he met a merchant who recognised his crest as belonging to the Yokuboo clan in the Hattori Empire. Buying passage on a merchant ship, he set sail for the Koru Shogunate.

    Occupation: Vagabond
    Relation to the Patriarch: nephew of Jurobei (majus), bastard son of Shintaro, nephew of Sanada, 1st cousin of Midori, 1st cousin of Inazuma (Regin34), 1st cousin once removed to Chitsukiko (Mazoku)
    Forbidden: snuff, scat, watersports, sexual torture
    Skills: 2 martial arts (tai chi), 1 swordsmanship, 1 magic, 1 bartering,
    Magic: 1 Enchant weapon with element (water), 2 focused Qi (hands)
    Stats: Wealth 2, Prestige 1

    This guy okay with everyone? Tell me if I should change something.

    I like it, but wouldn't water enhancing a weapon just kinda slow down the speed and force of the impact? Maybe ice would be a good extension because of the hardness and sharp angles that could be used defensively and aggressively for hard punches if it works to him being able to enchant bare knuckle weapons like hand wraps. Though something like a water shield would work really well because it's going to pretty much slow whatever physical attacks used to a crawl. As magic utility, if he levels to do stuff like fire water blasts from his hand, that's going to be effective since high pressure blasts can cut through steel.

    I did think more of it as an ice enchanment. I just wrote water since that's the Chinese Wuxing element, I'd imagine it governs ice too.

    It looking good, but I think skill "Silver Tongue" will be useless for you. Better chouse something else, that is my opinion.

    Name:
    Kina (renamed by Jurobei Yokuboo, originally Dai Rai)
    Gender: Female
    Age: 42
    Appearance: She can be described as MILF. Busty blond, a wet dream of almost any person (both male and female) who laid his/hers eyes on her. She prefers wearing stockings, high-heeled sandals and robes that show off her cleavage and legs.
    Sexual Orientation: Bisexual
    Personality/History: Despite what history would teach you, not entire Rai clan was present in their fortress during the purge. Some members were away. One of those, was Tomi Rai, sister of Lord Rai and mother of Dai Rai. Tomi hid away, gathered whatever clan member she could recruit and started harassing Yokuboo clan.

    When she was twenty, Dai Rai went on a secret mission, to infiltrate Yokuboo. She managed to climb up the ranks until she became Jurobei's concubine. After two years of patient infiltration and using her body to gain Lord's favour, she decided it was finally time to assassinate him - she failed. She was captured, raped, tortured until she broke. Jurobei broke Dai's spirit and brainwashed her, until the woman became completely loyal to him, and considered herself as nothing more but his tool.

    Dai Rai, lead Jurobei with his elite's to Rai's remnants stronghold. She allowed them in, to slaughter her clan members. She personally delivered her mother to Jurobei, so that he could rape her... and when he was done, she personally cut off her head at his order. After that, she offered her own head, as a sign of her loyalty. For a moment, Jurobei considered just taking her life, but in the end, he decided otherwise. He renamed her as Kina, and made her his servant.

    He made her Yokuboo's clan sex slave - her role was to be used and abused by the clan members. To ensure their loyalty by using her own body, to be an outlet for their lust and anger - to be used, in whatever way they desired.

    Her secret role, one about which only Jurobei and those he trusted knew, was being his enforcer. She eliminated clan traitors, double agents, she made sure that the clan's servants' were loyal and enemy elements were made subservient to the clan.

    Kina, is a MILF, sex slave, slut, masochist and a cum dump for any of Yokuboo's men or women. She is eagerly accepting any punishment and gladly offers her body to Yokuboo. She considers herself as tool and is almost religiously devoted to the clan. But as all tools, she realises that her usefulness to the clan is quickly coming to an end, as she is becoming older. Knowing that she seeks a way to sell her life in a way, that would bring the greatest profit to Yokuboo clan.

    Through her life, as a slave and enforcer, she became skilled brewer of potions - she specialises mostly in lust potions, love potions and brain-inducting potions. She is a skilled seductress and Yokuboo clan's devoted follower.

    Occupation: Yokuboo clan's sex slave (former Jurobei's concubine - lost her position when she showed herself a Rai remnant's spy)
    Relation to the Patriarch: sex slave
    Skills:
    Seduction (2) - she is a master seductress. There are few men and women who could resist her charms.
    Potion brewing (2) - there is little that is beyond her skill to brew. Hypnosis potion that allow reprogramming psyche, lust potions, rage potions, love potions... she is yet to learn immortality potion.
    Espionage - A skilled spy and information gatherer. She knows where to search for secrets and how to find them. She has contacts with criminals and the black market.
    Stats:
    Wealth 0
    prestige 0
    (she is a sex slave)
    Forbidden diapers, scat
