| "Every
day would be the death of you all, the end
of everything the Empire has built . . . except
that we are there." - Hida Reiha
Secrets of the Crab investigates the children
of Hida, the most indefatigable of Great Clans.
See the customs, holdings, and way of life
of the men and women that live only a stone's
throw from the Festering Pit. Come stand upon
the Kaiu Wall beside them... if you dare.
Within, you will find:
- Information on the major and minor holdings
of each Crab family, complete with points
of interest, notable individuals, and suggestions
on how to incorporate these elements into
character backgrounds and adventures.
- Mechanics for the secret weapons and
techniques of the Crab armies: Kaiu siege
weaponry, Kuni crystal weapons, Hida weaponry
innovations, and new techniques for the
Damned - doomed crack troops who rush to
their death in combat to avoid the inevitable
madness of the Taint!
- Secrets revealed about the Yasuki conspiracy,
the Crab's Nezumi alliance, and the mysterious
Shakoki Dogu, ghost of the Twilight Mountains.
