[Child of Armok]

Wait for the execution to happen at the prison.

[Ardas]

"Its clear then that the ambush must take place in the hilly area of the forest. we have to move out immeidately to intercept them, otherwise we have no chance at surprising them."

Katsu straightened out and seemed ready to move. "With your permission, magistrate-sama, I would like to begin preparations immidately. Every moment is precious."

[HailFire]

"Having the magistrate's blessing is a fortuitous start to our journey, though I don't recall needing his permission. We should discuss our plans over sake... but first I should make sure this idiot doesn't bleed out."

Get Akio inside and start tending to wounds

[Kadzar]

"Alright, I'll leave you to it; I'm going to head over to the men's side to have a soak. If it's alright with you, I suggest we meet up in about an hour at the Sun Blossom."

If Asane doesn't object to the idea in any way, Kenage does as he has suggested.

[Gotdamnmiracle]

Posting to join at some point. Hopefully.

[King_of_the_weasels]

Visit train station, see when I'll be able to get to the capitol.

[Doomblade187]

Oshaberi goes wandering through town, 'seeing the sights', dressed in a traveling cloak so that he's inconspicuous. He looks for any guards or cameras, and if there aren't any, walks behind the shady apothecary's shop, his walking stick in hand.

Kenaga & Asane
Kenage heads back to the Sun Blossom Inn, as he suggested, after a bath.
Asane, on the other hand, (729=16|5=5 wounds healed) drags Akio from the water and easily binds his wound. He's in too much of a daze to question what is going on, really, or even to make a pass as she bends over him in the nude.

Hori
(83) Yoshimori seems to consider this for a moment, before giving a nod, rising to his feet. "Fair enough, Budoka-san, a friendly duel it will be," he answers, moving off and out of the tent, hefting his testubo as he goes, "I will have my men find a stick for me, and you may find one for yourself."

Yoru
You wait and wait...and wait. Several hours pass, and it's well after midday. It doesn't look like there's any sign of an execution taking place. At least not today.

You do get some weird looks for loitering, though, and eventually have to leave. You'll need to think up a different plan.

Isaac
You visit the train station and ask around, but it would appear that the trains are still delayed until they can figure out what's wrong-- something they evidently have yet to do. (16)

Oshaberi
Cameras do not yet exist, at least not the sort you're worried about. (030(19)68=37) You easily slip into the alley behind the apothecary's shop while nobody is looking. In fact, just to your luck, the window seems to be open- as if beckoning you.

Somewhere off in the distance, you hear someone chide "Welcome back!"

Katsu & Hayato
The Magistrate and his two advisors agree. You are both informed that a squad of 10 Hohei will be placed under your individual command. You are free to pick them up at the barracks and begin personal preparations immediately. Scouts will be dispatched, unless you insist on the task.
The main defensive force will leave that evening, under the cover of night. You have the die to prepare if you so choose.

[Lillipad]

-He looks for a branch roughly as long as his sword near the camp-

[Child of Armok]

Go to the Magistrate to ask if that bastard (sorry) is going to be executed.

[Digital Hellhound]

Head to the barracks to see how ill-prepared these men in fact are

[Ardas]

Go to the barracks and pick out the men. Spend short time preparing them and head out to scout the area for ambush.

[Doomblade187]

Listening carefully for movement inside, Oshaberi readies his wakazashi to be drawn from under his clothing as he climbs in through the window, being careful not to make any noise. He pulls a black hood over his head before he enters.

((Do you mind if I retroactively have him carrying those concealed under his clothing on his way here? It would make sense for him to bring those things, I suppose.))

[Kadzar]

If Asane is not at the Sun Blossom right away, Kenage will tell the innkeeper to come get him if the lady ronin arrives, and he will go to his room and work on his letters to his sensei and the man in the capital he was going to be assisting. If she is here, he'll order sake and fill her in on the details of the mission.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

 Player Name: Gotdamnmiracle
Character Name: Kourogi Arai
Profession: Musician/spy
Clan: Nimensei.

The Nimensei clan is made up of upper class artisans and performers. The general opinion of them is that they aren't worth the goods or services they produce because you have to deal with their pomp and vanity as well as quite a bit classism. The fact of the matter is though this clan is a big hitter on the services circuit and more recently is one of the largest growing trade organizations (seeing as their newest contracts with foreign sources). The Nimensei are also blamed for, in more hushed tones, corporate espionage and trade secret stealing, nothing as of yet has been proven, however.

School: Twisted Oak School of Fine Artistry and Mercantile: The Twisted Oak teaches everything from how to play fine music to how to act as well as archery and Swaying Reed sword fighting style, preferring small blades. Since the Twisted Oak's main contributor is the Nimensei clan Classes on haggling as well as stealth are taught here.
Music (with a specific instrument)/mercantile/service (cooking, woodworking, painting, etc.), acting, archery, knife wielding (swaying reed), haggling, appraising, and stealth.
The whole school is the Nimensei training hub. Specialty schools on sailing and the like are offered for overseas traders but there are no people at the school who don't belong to the clan. The school is located along the beach in a port town and is fairly rigid in it's teaching, so much so that the people in the town can tell who the students are just because of how stressed out they look.
Physical Description: Kourogi is an averaged average sized man with light olive skin. His musculature is difficult to make out under his dress suit but he moves smoothly and quickly, reminiscent of a dancer. He is devoid of scars or marks save a freckle or two alone his arms and callused hands and feet. He stands absolutely straight. He would be attractive if it weren't laugh lines and crows feet on his face and a long nose coupled dark circles under his eyes, hinting at a severe lack of sleep. Despite his wrinkles though he doesn't look old, in fact he couldn't be older than his mid twenties. He just looks perpetually stressed out. his hair is a dark brown part, 4" in length.
Personality: Kourogi is a man who no longer cares, grown from a boy who once did. He is no criminal but will do what it requires to get the job done. As a teenager he hoped to fix his clan (naively) from the inside. He no longer  believes there is anything truly real except for the things he can touch and feel. He is vain and dislikes the lower classes and more brutish things in life, an attitude that comes with the clan. The only thing he finds pleasure in, really is playing his violin and seeing what's over that next horizon. He doesn't really relish spying for his clan but he does it because "Everyone has bills to pay I suppose". Kourogi is not without morality though and dislikes violence and abhors killing. Some say he suffers from depression. He says he suffers from wanderlust.
Skills: Violin, persuasion, short sword (swaying reed), acting, stealth, archery, acrobatics and mercantile.
All skills were taught at the Twisted Oak.
Biography: As a boy kourogi often witnessed the result of severe corruption within the small community that he lived. As he grew he began to try to work with the Nimensei clan, to gain their trust. After he was finally inducted he and had finished his schooling he had finally seen the far reaches of the corruption and realized that there was nothing or little he could do.
 Now all kourogi lives for is the next day, the next town, and the next club to play at, doing a job or two in between. The latest job was on his way to Sumeru and he had heard good things about the saki at a specific bar to play at, so that was the location of choice for this week.
Goals: He wants to find something (or someone) that inspires him. He also still has underlying hope that his clan will fail and more specifically that he will fail every time he does a job. This hope, however, has never stayed his hands, sword, or tongue.

So will this work? Tell me if he fits, please! I would love to joins as soon as possible.
