Irezumi Warrior
Contents
Notice
This monster is from an out of date rule-set
A Monster from the Book of Engoku.
Description
Irezumi is the word for the traditional visible tattoo that covers large parts of the body like the back. Tattoos have been treated differently throughout the history of Engoku, in earlier times many warriors were tattooed, then tattoos were used by firemen as protective charms, by geisha to appear more attractive, and later used to mark criminals. For this Irezumi Warrior we take a fantasy approach, the tattooed warrior who gains power from his tattoos.
Garb
Traditional ‘Engoku’ garb, appropriate tattoos (paint or ‘temporary tattoos’ are acceptable) must be visible. Tattoos cannot be changed between lives.
