Relations with other Clans

Crab Clan - Staunch and trustworthy allies. A bit dour, but who can blame them?

Crane Clan - Very helpful... but their attitude tends towards the off putting and puts many a Unicorn ill at ease.

Dragon Clan - A silent neighbor is better than a hostile neighbor. Their inaction is their undoing, however.

Lion Clan - Often, a Unicorn wonders just what he has done to aggravate the Lion. Most continue like this until they converse with another of the Lion's neighbors, and realize they aren't that much worse off.

Mantis Clan - Few Unicorn have met with the Mantis, and fewer still are aware of their links with other gaijin nations. Regardless, most have a hearty respect for them.

Phoenix Clan - Helpful but patronizing, kind but arrogant, the Ki-Rin tend to have mixed views about the spiritual masters of of the Empire. As allies, they are more than welcome... As friends, however...

Scorpion Clan - Nothing but treachery at every turn. Still, at least one knows what to expect.

Ronin - Unfortunate souls to be so maligned. Still, there is often a reason for their station.

The Unicorn don't concern themselves much with the minor clans, except for the Fox Clan, with whom they are continually trying to reunite.

Important Notes

Horiuchi Shoan is the only member of her family. The Moto still suffer their curse, and no one outside their own family wants anything to do with them. The Otaku are still named the Otaku, and the Shinjo are still the leading family of their Clan. No one knows anything about the Kolat.
