The legendary Master of the Temple’s slow and thoughtful nature with his students is the exact opposite when on the battlefield. The diminutive Tanuki is a cyclone of energy, flying between enemies in a flurry of blows, dashing from melee to melee. Nigh impossible to target at range the enemy must close in an attempt to deal with this furry thorn. The Temple do not exclude any who hold the needs of the many and protection of the realm above personal gain as their ideals, Master Akari & Kuma are perfect examples of this mentality.

None have managed to attain such a deep and wide understanding of the world as the venerable Master Enos. His body now old but his mind and powers have never been stronger. His knowledge of the elements enable him to exploit the very Kami themselves, drawing on their energy to transform himself into a conduit of nature’s strength. The other Masters however question how much this unique ability damages the balance and relationship the Temple holds with them. It is certainly obvious that Enos’s mastery of the Void has enabled him to unlock knowledge of the element thought lost and forgotten. Some powers though are better left lost.

If Master Koju is in danger all of creation will bend to ensure her safety, and even the most depraved Kami representing the worst aspects of creation will not harm her. This often manifests as wild animals appearing alongside her to attack those who threaten her and her enemies seem to slow down in her presence allowing her allies the opportunity to take out threats before they have a chance to harm her.

Master Po’s return has caused quite a stir in the halls of the temples of Ro-Kan. His jovial presence has lifted morale of every monk from the initiates, to his fellow masters. Po’s manipulation of Ki belies his rotund appearance allowing him to be deadly in close combat, many have been caught cold as the big man lands hammering blows.

The defence of the oldest temples and most sacred shrines is often entrusted to the great Oki Shisa. Mountains of ever watchful stone, still and silent for decades but always ready. None know how many Oki Shisa there are but these holy wardens are the bane of those who would attempt to manipulate their Ki against the Temple or hold sway over the land. The enchantments that gift the Shisa protection also imbue the stone with a keenness akin to a Masamune blade.

A favourite of the temple elders and new initiates alike, Riku personifies what it means to be a Monk. His mastery over water allows him to achieve awe inspiring feats on the battlefield, creating walls of water out of the very air to hinder his opponents.

Kuma is the rock on which the water breaks the solid and resilient constant of the Temple. With Bo staff or claw he strikes out and floors foes with swift and brutal strikes. Despite his mass it is difficult to pin him down or outnumber him and with a practiced mediation Kuma can reach out to the roots of the earth to bind and hold firm those would overrun him.

Like all monks of the Temple of Ro-Kan, Seiji is following a path and element that he was always destined to. Still in the early years of his training this calm and relaxed monk is already showing signs that he will become a great defender of the Jwar Isles, and an asset in the struggle against the chaos. It is told that Seiji sat under the Grand Father tree for a full cycle in meditation, quietly becoming as one with the forest around him and in a deep communion with the sacred Kami. The secrets he learned now enable Seiji to seek out the help of the natural world around him, it comes to his and the Temple’s aid. Enemies find themselves rooted to the spot, held firm as they are bound and restrained by the very ground itself. Along with this ability Seiji has also achieved a higher level of understanding and attunement with his own body, enabling him to focus his energies and recover from even the most severe of wounds at an astounding rate.

The guardians of the temples, these silent sentinels have stood for eons outside many a shrine or holy place. Now with the realised threat of another wave they have been reanimated from their long slumber. Always fighting in pairs, the links between the two run right to the very core of their being. In this time of strife, the return of the Shisa is a timely relief.

Suchiro, is the embodiment of determination and persistence. With a goal or objective in his mind nothing can stop this quiet and thoughtful monk from reaching it. In battle he fights resolutely, anchoring the forces of the Temple and proving to be an unbreakable bastion for the defenders of Jwar. Many strive to understand the riddles of the Kami of Chikyu’s Rock but this monk of the Temple of Ro-Kan has and in doing so brought the teaching to bear on those that would seek to upset the balance. Suchiro’s wrath may not be quick but like the mountains and earth it is inevitable.

When he was younger, Taiki was a light-fingered miscreant with a heart of gold and a taste for anything cooling on the kitchen window. Pies, rice cakes, and sweet treats were his pilferage of choice that he would then dutifully dole out to all the other wayward children too. He grew up hard in a myriad of villages nestled in the Ro-Kan Mountains. Taiki was never selected to join the Temple of Ro-Kan, but his eyes never left the monks when they trained, and between what he watched and practised and tousling with the other village children, he adapted a fighting style all of his own. Niseru, his now stalwart companion, also had a spurious approach to what was his and what belonged to other people. His penchant ran to fermented apples that would get him tipsy, as well as being able to open a sake bottle or a beer keg. But when they teamed up? They became a tsunami of almost unstoppable thievery. Were it not for the way they defend the village and the villagers from attack and unwanted aggression, this mischievous pair would have fallen foul of the local militia long ago. But the two are inseparable, and the villagers have grown fond of them, even learning to turn a blind eye when a meal or a drink magically disappear.

Taiki’s Ape Ki Feat requires a friendly Monk model for Taiki to watch and copy as best he can. This allows you to break the activation order, take TWO activations in a row, and give Taiki additional melee options. Taiki also brings Event-Trap cards to Temple’s Monk themes for the first time. When paired with Niseru, Simian Trickery allows for a wide range of tactical plays that keep your opponent guessing where these models will attack by spreading out then using the feat to outnumber the enemy suddenly. Niseru is more of an annoyance than a combatant, but the negation of Surprise can be a real boon, especially with the recent release of the Shiho. Changing Special Attacks from 0 cost to 1 is a real worry for specific lists; those Takashi now have to pay for Critical Attack!

This venerable monk is a seasoned defender of the Temple. Though his sight left him at a young age his senses and awareness of his surrounding remain sharp as a fox. Like most monks of his age there is little left in this world that can cause fear in this wandering warrior of the Temple. In battle Tsutsumi carries with him the ancient Guqin, carved from an ancient wood and passed down from monk to monk since the first rays of sunlight rose over the mountains of Ro-Kan. When his lithe fingers strum its strings as he has done for many decades, using the sweet sound and combining it with his deep voice to create powerful prayers, Shomyos. He uses these to inspire his allies, or suppress and distract his enemies. Tsutsumi can also use the Guqin to channel a powerful wave of sound, knocking hapless enemies to the ground.

Yuuki’s quickly found the name of the wind, where others hear only whistle and whisper. Yuuki hears the chatter of excited and boundless Kami. She is an able warrior and much like her element; rarely still, in play she is light and airy like a summer breeze but when called upon in battle she is a direct and relentless howling gale. Her vitality is endless and her speed astounding, her body a blur of motion as she unleashes blow after blow, an unstoppable storm of Rokan’s fury personified.

Whilst she shares her sisters desire to bring the brothers to justice and see them pay for their crimes she does not prioritise it over the wellbeing of Yangjing or Yizhi.

Yanjing is a formidable warrior in her own right. From a young age she had an affinity to the bow and her skills are impressive. Her calm zen archery produces impressive results, the arrows whispering across the battlefield as quietly as the falling blossom. Her ability to heal her sisters is of vital importance to their mission and without it they would have had to have given up on their quarry a long time ago.
