Descrição
People are resilient, and even those some consider “discarded” can find a place in society, defiantly existing through sheer will to survive. Some even rise above this social discrimination to amass wealth (though in secret) and perhaps even influence (though only clandestinely) through strength of body, will, and mind. Their worth is what they make of it, not what the world assigns to them.
Hinin, considered “nonpeople” and the lowest class of Rokugani, may have any of a wide variety of backgrounds. Hinin PCs with this upbringing may have worked as undertakers, butchers, or tanners— occupations that involve handling dead flesh—or as cleaners, street entertainers, actors, or geisha. They may be ex-convicts who have served as town guards. Hinin occupy a veiled existence, usually shunned yet still working in necessary occupations. A person never acknowledges their shadow until they no longer have one. Nevertheless, those considered “low” can still hold their head high—just not in front of certain people.
