Earthquake
EarthDescrição
Earthquakes are common in some parts of Rokugan, and they are rightly feared—whole villages have been known to vanish when the earth spirits are set to turmoil. To intentionally raise their ire is dangerous, but it is one of the most powerful techniques a shugenja can wield. Ripples shoot across the ground around them as the earth bucks and tumbles. The shugenja’s foes plummet into chasms of darkness and sulfur, entombed forever beneath the ground they once walked.
