Descrição

The head priest of the Kyotei Castle shrine is Tsume Yemon (TSOO-mey YEH-mohn), a forty-something man who came to Kyotei Castle after serving as Tsume Retsu’s spiritual advisor. Unfortunately, his post caused him to quickly discover the extent of the Damasu ghost infestation, and their constant haunting of the grounds has slowly eroded away his sanity. As a result, whenever something bad happens to the Tsume family or

the castle, he immediately casts blame at the vengeful ghosts of the Damasu. So far, all of his attempts to mediate with the ghosts or to exorcise them have been met with failure. He is becoming increasingly desperate to be rid of them—almost obsessively so. Even if presented with evidence to the contrary, Yemon still believes the dead cranes (see page 19) to be a sign from the spirits—and he pleads with the PCs to help him banish them.

Yemon is easily recognizable for his formal priest’s cap and white robes, as well as his long moustache. Yemon is plainly more at ease in nature than he is in conversation, and he comes across as awkward, stilted of speech, and even shy. He is constantly making signs against evil and offers prayers on behalf of other characters to their ancestors in order to protect them from the ghosts of Kyotei Castle.
