Epilepsy (4 Point Disadvantage)

The Epilepsy disadvantage is a result of continuous interbreeding between the Imperial Line and Crane families. Epilepsy is rare, and causes rigidity of muscles, shaking symptoms and even death in the worst cases. The trigger is usually high amounts of stress, but also flshing lights such as fireworks can cause a seizure. Rokugani believe the person who presents in such a manner is a channel for divine influences, and as a result the character may become shunned by normal society but worshipped by those brave enought to come near. When in a stressful situation the character must make a Willpower TN 15 to resist a seizure, and when in a seizure they must make a TN 20 to end it. (Crane p. 53)
