LE GUIDE DU DAIMYO
http://home.swipnet.se/scaledun/guidelines.html
1: When sending me to deliver a message/recover an artifact/repel an invasion, always wait until the very last minute to tell me, then emphasize the urgency of my mission. The challenge of a deadline is refreshing.
2: If it's really a rush job, send along some other flunky to inquire how it's going every few hours. That helps. Or even better, get them to hover behind me, advising me at every move.
3: When leaving home, never tell anyone where you're going. It gives me a chance to be creative when someone asks where you are. If you find this tough to manage, get some pointers from Hitomi-sama.
4: If my arms are full of weapons, scrolls, my saddle, or whatever, don't open the shoji screen for me. Opening screens with no arms is good training in case I should ever be wounded in battle and lose all use of my limbs.
5: If you give me more than one job to do, don't tell me which is the priority. I'll get a shugenja to cast Know the Mind and find out anyway.
6: Do your best to keep me busy at all times. I really do not have anywhere else to go or anything to do. My life has no value if it does not serve you.
7: If a job I do pleases you, keep it a secret. If that gets out, it could mean a promotion.
8: If you do not like my work, tell everyone. I like my name to be mentioned in conversations. Besides, I deserve nothing but shame for not conforming to your standards.
9: If you have special or secret instructions for a job, do not write them down. In fact, save them until the job is almost done. No use confusing me with useful information.
10: Never introduce me to the people you're with. I have no right to know anything. In the Rokugani food chain, I am plankton. When you refer to them later, my shrewd deductions will identify them.
11: Be nice to me only when the job I'm doing for you could really change your life and send you straight to Jigoku if it's not done correctly.
12: Get me to take care of all your little 'problems'. My karma is awful anyway, and it's my pleasure to tarnish my soul even further by doing every menial and dishonorable task you can think up.
13: Do not under any circumstances reward me for my work. I'm not in it for the koku anyway.
La 10 me fait trop loler.
Par contre, j'ai pas compris la 4. :baton:
