Welcome to the Crimson Empire

The Concept
Those of us who know and love Legend of the Five Rings, a RPG and CCG world of the Fantastic Orient, have imagined all of the possibilites of things ending up much differently. Alternate Realities, new histories, and more have lived in thoughts and discussions. This is one of those things.
The Crimson Empire is an effort by a group to create an Alternate Setting to the standard L5R storyline. We will create fiction, character profiles, new rules, home made cards, and more all for this new setting. The idea is to make L5R even more interactive, by making it different, and looking at how things should could have been, and inviting all of you to join us.
All of this material is, of course, property of AEG, and none of this should be considered a challenge to their rights. We do this solely for the love of the game, and to further all of our enjoyment.
