As the representatives of the Hantei and Toturi vie for the support of the Scorpion in Kyuden Bayushi, both Emperors have ordered the execution of the emissaries of the so-called Spider Clan in their respective courts. Despite the continued talks, it is expected that the war councils of both factions will conclude soon, and it is thought likely that this will lead to open warfare.
Meanwhile, the peace in the Northern Steppes has caused some young bravos to spend an unseemly amount of time mingling with the northern barbarians, much to the disapproval of their elders.

How much longer will the scorpion vote hold out? I love the attention, but the suspense is killing me!

Well, I never thought avoiding Daigotsu as a sworn enemy would result in the option to attend a Kabuki play with someone. Very interesting, Jay-sama.

As a Spider, currently RP-ing in Toturi's camp, I suspect I am quite dead. I could play the villain skulking in the back and mwah-hah-hahing, but...
So, any offers/suggestions on what clan to play next?

kyuden bayushi. I wouldn't say your dead, just more....being refused recognition as a clan. The emmisary is being killed for claiming the right of having a clan that doesn't exist, since only an emperor can bestow such a right. Unless of course, your running around saying "I'm a spider!!!!!" IC.

Well, I am currently RP-ing as part of the emissary's guard in Toturi's camp, so yeah, I'm pretty obviously Spider.

I was able to spend 300ish slander on this action. I was very pleased with the result. One thing down, now to the rest of the list.

OOC: It's heartening to think this will end the Spider Clan.
That said, you've just eliminated any need or desire for the Spider in any manner of acceptable fashion. Personally, had I found the Spider a threat, I would have brought them in. Learned about them.
Then exterminated them all. As opposed to killing a handful of their courtiers.
At this point, I'm just waiting for one of the Lion to take my head or seppuku, and try a different character.

Jay, any chance you can post the total votes from each camp for accepting and killing the spider emissary?

I'm curious, if the emissary text hadn't mentioned clan at all but just 'an emissary from a group/otokodate calling itself the spider requests an audience' would many who was opposed have supported the request for an audience?

Jay, any chance you can post the total votes from each camp for accepting and killing the spider emissary? Sure, here are the actual totals: Side | Welcome Spider emissary | Execute Spider emissary | Toturi | 945 (21%) | 3430 (78%) | Hantei | 1223 (26%) | 3424 (73%) |
I'm afraid neither side really welcomed the Spider with open arms. Clearly some sort of unwarranted prejudice against our mysterious friends from beyond the wall.
