Descrição
Farmers, the backbone and stomach of Rokugan, contend with problematic weather, difficult soil, banditry, and strain on personal health to ensure that the Emerald Empire continues to see a new sunrise. Yet, events beyond their control—overtaxation, years of poor harvest, war—threaten not only their livelihoods but their very lives.
As a result, the popular image of farmers being happy and content in their lot ignores the complexities of their reality. While of course those who have suffered no calamities may indeed be happy, many farmers see no relief from endless struggle. A character playing a farmer is often hard-working, pragmatic, and loyal to their own. Such characters may also be skeptical of outsiders, particularly if they have had bad experiences in the past with others.
