sprinkles:
You have claimed many titles and claim to be the master of many people. Are you the Chuck Norris of EE?
Kasumi:
Oh, I'd tell you but then I'd have to round house kick you
![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)
sprinkles:
Haha ok
What is your fascination with in game marriages?
Kasumi:
You mean why do I bother myself with doing surveys etc?
sprinkles:
Yes.
Kasumi:
I'd tell you, but do not let others know about it. When they fill surveys... I can find the best match for myself
And there are are other benefits to being the survey collector.
But honestly, I think it's really Rokugani to have some expectations about your future spouse... and getting something not quite as you've wanted... It's all about the politic, right?
sprinkles:
And is there a prospected husband in the future for you?
Kasumi:
*blinks* Probably. I wonder who would be brave enough to tame that wild redhead![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)
Even so...Kasumi will chose him on her own. A male worth to be her husband.
sprinkles:
Do you feel Haruka betrayed the Utaku by joining the Scorpion?
Kasumi:
Not really. She has followed her heart and this is the way that Unicorns do in the eyes of Kasumi. If Haruka is happy with Senshi, then I'm glad that she is by his side. Honestly... the only reason Kasumi would leave her family... would be by following her heart. And mind that she is a daimyo... So yeah, I do not feel betrayed by Haruka. (Not that Kasumi won't try killing Senshi if he ever hurt Haruka...)
sprinkles:
What is the history with Kasumi and Hida Setsuro?
Kasumi:
Just like any other history between a samurai and samurai-ko from two different clans with a different status. They were fighting together, they've talked a lot... Setsuro understands Kasumi a lot, but I wonder if she could leave Utaku for him...
sprinkles:
Any chance of that happening?
Kasumi:
Who knows? Maybe...
sprinkles:
On to your background.
You left your character background mostly blank. Have you filled it in since then?
Kasumi:
There are some secrets about Kasumi's personal life that I'd rather leave for people that I am playing with... to discover. Things like why she looks like almost 100% Gaijin, why she is a daimyo when she's only 17-18 years old... how come she has so many things that are so rare in Rokugan. There is at least one person close to finding out about her past... but for that you'd have to wait patiently while that story moves on...![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)
sprinkles:
That answers alot of my next set of questions. Haha.
How does being a Gaijin influence your character decisions?
Kasumi:
She maybe looks like one, but her heart is 100% Unicorn. She decide only on things that are good for her family and her clan. And do not forget that she was born in Rokugan, her mother was Utaku and Kasumi was raised as one.
It's true that she's wild and decides (sometimes) on things that are controversial to people around, but she wouldn't be herself if she followed like an obedient puppy...
sprinkles:
How do you deal with those who want to look down on you for being so Gaijin?
Kasumi:
Why should I bother myself with people that only look at someone's appearance and not looking at the real person? They think I am a Gaijin? I act as one. No one expects Kasumi to follow all those strict rules of Rokugan. In fact no one expect Unicorns to be like that. That gives us a lot of freedom to be ourselves.
sprinkles:
How do you see the unicorn fitting into the empire?
Kasumi:
Let me use a wise man's words here: "A wise general knows that patrolling one's borders is not enough. It is beyond those borders that the true threat lies."
Unicorns are something really important to the Empire in my opinion. They are the thing that connects Rokugan and the rest of the would outside. They can adapt pretty fast to their surroundings.
Maybe (usually) they are those that are pushed aside by rest of Rokugani, but when it comes to things that others can't deal with - Unicorn clan is their last hope. They are brave, curious and loyal. Did I say that they can adapt fast? Yes, they can... and they can adapt anything that is worthy to their own "culture" and use it the way they want.
sprinkles:
And how do you see yourself fitting into this? What does Kasumi offer to the Unicorn?
Kasumi:
To get an answer to that question... those that wants to know should wait and see what decisions she will make![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)
sprinkles:
Why did you go against your clan and side with Hantei in the war?
Kasumi:
We have two different sides of a story here. IC Kasumi never mentioned she's siding with Hantei-dono. Just like any other Unicorn she follows decision of the Khan - for how long... I wonder. And why (if we speak about myself) - like I've said before, Kasumi does what her heart tells her. And she doesn't think that following Kaneka is a right choice for her Clan. She sees that he is siding with their enemies that attacked their land (Yobanjin), and she is really overprotective when it comes to lower class people, those that can't fight for themselves.
Kaneka wanted Yobanjin's support, but what would he give them in return? Something they've really wanted? And what did they want when they attack Unicorn land? What would they ask for from Kaneka in return for their help?
Those are the questions that roams in Kasumi's head all the time. Plus she really doesn't like it when brothers and sisters are killing each other when they should support and protect. For her this whole war makes no sense.
sprinkles:
Will this war be ended by Kasumi taking the position of Khan and putting that usurper in his place?![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)
I speaking of Kaneka of course.
Kasumi:
*shrugs* A Khan is a title for a daimyo of Moto family. It doesn't mean a Champion like for any other clan in the Rokugan. Of couse for now a Khan is also a Champion of the Unicorn Clan, but if I am correct there was at least one person (or will be) that was the Khan while not being a Champion.
But yes, I am really tempted to do something that would make Unicorns to change sides and follow their own heart, not a brute that came with his army to our land and somehow forced us to follow him...
Unicorn Clan (as for now if I am correct) is the only one that follows Kaneka while he's going to take his place in Toshi Ranbo being in the hands of the Lion Clan...
Lions are being busy with keeping Toshi Ranbo and their loss of Permission City... (and not only that); Crabs are busy (divided) with the Wall and most of their forces are going to attack the Crane Clan. Mantis Clan is also busy, attacking Crane Clan... (Dang, Cranes are such a poor things in this war!). That leaves only Unicorn Clan free to move...
*rub her nose* Yes, that would be a perfect scheme to end this war... Now I am really tempted... Oh, you sneaky Spider!
sprinkles:
That's me![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)
What is your opinion of Moto Yoee? Is he doing a good job as Clan Champion?
Kasumi:
Is he really a Champion? Or just a Khan? I wonder... Is he doing a good job? Is he doing any job would be a more appropriate question here. Some things are gona change soon... who knows what things... who knows.
sprinkles:
Wonderful I'm so glad you see things my way. Take over the Unicorn then take out Torturi.![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)
Kasumi:
Of course. Take over Unicorn Clan, then take Kaneka down... strike at the Capitol, take Hantei as my wife... put my butt on the throne and rule them all... Oh, did I mention that I'd burn Shadowlands already? *smiles gently*
sprinkles:
Haha. How do you feel about the Spider?
Kasumi:
Oh, spiders are handy. If you keep them at home... there are no flies and other bugs. But remember to leave some spider-webs, otherwise be ready to get some bites from bloodsuckers called mossie... *shivers*
sprinkles:
What is your opinion of each of the Clans?
Kasumi:
It's hard to say because very clan has good and not so good people there. And giving an answer to that question based only on good or bad ones is wrong - that would put me in the same position as those that are treating Unicorns like barbarians... and Kasumi as a Gaijin.
sprinkles:
So treat each individual as they come and try not to make generalizations?
Kasumi:
I am trying to. For example: Kasumi doesn't love Lions... but she is speaking to Tomatsu and they have many things in common. She isn't treating him as a Lion (or a Champion to that) but as a male that has a knowledge that is equal (or even greater) as hers.
And... it's pretty Unicorn thing to do - take them for who they are and what they do.
sprinkles:
Who do consider to be your allies?
Kasumi:
Again - I do not want to point any clan here. But there are people that I think are worthy being an allies...
sprinkles:
Care to drop any names?
Kasumi:
For example Haruka - Kasumi never had a real sister and from the beginning she treats Haruka that way (but before that put her in a pretty tough spot because of Kasumi I think). This is why Kasumi, even when she didn't like Haruka leaving Utaku... she let her go, not wanting her to be forced to chose between her duty and her feelings.
The rest... be patient. Everything (probably) about Kasumi will be known for some time... if someone ask the right questions there...![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)
sprinkles:
And what about enemies? Anyone Kasumi wants to kill?
Kasumi:
There is one person she would be able to kill... but slowly she is changing her mind about it *smirks* To be honest, Kasumi is pretty nice person and she doesn't have that many enemies (I mean the ones she made on her own).
sprinkles:
What does Kasumi think of the attack on the Wall? Is it a good move to help the rightful Emperor? Will it unite the Clans vs a greater threat? Are the Scorpion wrong to try and stop another Hantei supporter?
Kasumi:
(Do you mean Scorpion attack or Spider attack?)
sprinkles:
Spider attack.
Kasumi:
To her it's a desperate attack... or a really smart move. She doesn't think it's to help anyone other than Spiders...
I don't think Spider's attack will unite Great Clans. At least not at this point.
And what the Scorpion Clan does... they have a great knowledge and they know how to use it. If they've decided to go to the Wall, against Spiders... they probably know what they are doing and we should all hope that they can handle it on their own... at least for now.
sprinkles:
What are your personal goals?
Kasumi:
That is a secret for now. Once again - be patient. Soon...
sprinkles:
Thank you. it's been great. Any final thoughts or teasers you'd like to share?
Kasumi:
I can tell you who should be the next person to interview...
sprinkles:
Who's that?
Kasumi:
Tomatsu.
Oh, and did I tell you that I am pregnant?![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png)
sprinkles:
Kasumi is pregnant or you?
Kasumi:
I leave it to your imagination![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png)
