Council of Five (TCG)

The Council of Elemental Masters was a group of great shugenja of the Phoenix Clan who denominated themselves as Elemental Masters, each one mastering one of the elements: Air, Earth, Fire, Water, and the Void. These five preeminent shugenja each had learned from their predecessor. They dressed in elaborate silk robes, with winged kataginu each marked with a different mon of an element captured within a perfect ring.

Phoenix Rulers

The Elemental Masters guided the Phoenix Clan since its inception, and these masters were almost always drawn from the Isawa. They were protected by an elite cadre of hand-selected bushi, the Order of Chikai. Elemental Masters usually met visitors in a subterranean chamber within the Grove of the Five Masters.
