Seven Fortunes Blessing
Akbar the Irrigator - Applies to non-Caliphate, non-Sultanate NPCs with 1 or less Influence

Gentry [Material] (1 Point/Rank)
This advantage now signifies the possession of a holding within Medinaat al-Salaam. This may be anything from a small booth or a large forge with many smiths under the character’s supervision. The point cost signifies the potential income of the holding - it is likely, but not necessarily, reflective of the size of the establishment. Your staff people have their own lives – they work for the character, but don’t attend them. That is covered by the Servant Advantage. For using the Gentry advantage in play see Making Money

Hero of the People - Applies to non-Caliphate, non-Sultanate NPCs with 1 or less Influence.

Forbidden Lore: Khadi
You are intimately familiar with the ways of the Khadi, their strengths and their weaknesses. You gain one rank of the Lore: Khadi skill. In addition, you gain a +1k1 bonus to any investigation roll to locate a Khadi's hidden heart.

Forbidden Lore: Faction
You are aware of the existence of, and details about, a Faction within Medinaat al-Salaam despite possibly not being a member. This is often dangerous knowledge for non-members to hold and something one should keep close to their chest. You gain one rank of Lore: Faction and +1k1 on social rolls with known members of the Faction.

Paragon of Compassion - Any time you spend a Void Point to improve a roll made to directly help those lower than you, you gain +2k2 instead of +1k1. For this advantage 'lower than you' refers to non-Caliphate, non-Sultanate NPCs with 1 or less Influence

Magic Resistance
When purchasing specify Sahir, Rokugani (applies to Meishodo), or Jinn. Each may be purchased separately.
Only Yodotai may but this advantage after character creation and may also buy it for Maho and other non-human magics.

Disadvantages

Black Sheep
If you are cast out from an Origin school and your Faction offers the same school you can continue to advance. However, on attaining Rank 2 you gain the Sworn Enemy disadvantage for no additional points. On attaining Rank 3 the Sworn Enemy becomes a Kharmic Nemesis. If the Enemy/Nemesis is killed but the Disadvantage is not bought off they will eventually be replaced by another.

Cast Out
This disadvantage may be applied to other temples and faiths than just the Brotherhood of Shinsei.

Seven Fortunes Curse
Akbar the Irrigator - Applies to non-Calphate, non-Sultanate NPCs with 1 or less Influence
