Generic Samurai
This character sheet represents those samurai with either
extensive training (often at a good school of martial arts, in which
case the "Style" disadvantage is a good idea), or considerable
experience. These men are generally better quality retainers or the
most trusted guards. For the bulk of lower class samurai, use 25
point Bushi. This character sheet is also suitable for war-weary
ronin whose dangerous lifestyle has honed their skills beyond that of
their peers in service.
