Sourcebook covering the spirit realms in the land of Rokugan. Dual system for use with both Legend of the Five Rings 2e and Oriental Adventures. Has extensive information regarding the ongoing metaplot of the series at the time.

Publisher's Blurb:
Fortunes and Winds opens up new worlds for players already familiar with Legend of the Five Rings - ten worlds to be precise. The Spirit Realms vaguely hinted at in previous supplements are illustrated here in detail.

The Realm of the Hungry Dead, the Realm of Tricksters, even foul Jigoku, home of the demonic oni; all are presented in this volume along with their bizarre inhabitants. How do you get to these realms? What will you find there? Most importantly once you are there, how do you get home again? Fortunes and Winds answers all these questions and more.

Back Cover:
Mysterious shapeshifters. Terrifying demons. Bloodthirsty ghosts. Mystical dragons. These creatures often appear in the Empire of Rokugan, but where do they come from? The world that they samurai see and perceive is merely one realm overlapping mnay others, a single piece of a much larger puzzle. Great wonders lie beyond the borders of the mortal realm, but terrible dangers wait there as well.
