It just struck me that it would be kind of nifty if, when one reaches a high enough level, one could "gift" a technique, ie. teach fellow samurai something.
The game would generate the technique based on the character's highest skill, and maybe look at some traits like honor, taint and so on, and then "name" the trait per the giver. The techniques would be strong enough to be useful to low level characters, but probably wouldn't really be teaching fellow high levels too much. Maybe make it available to characters over level 200 or something to keep it "special", OR make it available after 100, with the gift improving every 100th level. Or whatever!
For example, Takezo, a ronin duelist, has iaijutsu as his highest skill and has a high honor (20,000+), so maybe he could gift a kata called "Takezo's Strike, +10 iaijutsu, +50 honor" or the like.
(The possibility of tainted gifts per Spider would finally create a need for the "Refuse" button, as well!)
Not sure how difficult this would be, but it would be fun to have some students running around Rokugan! ;D
