Ichiro Bushi School: Ichiro Bushi

Because of their tenacity and outright stubbornness, the Badger are feared as opponents in combat throughout the Empire. They are burly, tough, and capable. There is a proverb in Rokugan: If you plan to strike a Badger, prepare to accept your own strike.
The Badger rolls first for initiative and then may subtract as many points as desired to a minimum initiative result of one. The amount subtracted may be added to all to hit rolls in the round.

As Badger samurai learn to adapt to their native mountains, they often practice feats of tremendous strength. As games, the Badger test their ability to lift and throw, often hurling large trees or small boulders as part of a bet or a gambling match.
The bushi may reroll any strength roll (even one that succeeded) to get a better result. Once rolled, however, the second roll must be accepted.

Armor? Armor is weak compared to the stone of the mountains, and the Badger know well that a truly crushing blow cannot be turned aside by mere flaps of metal and silken cord. When the Badger strikes, either with their hand or with a weapon, armor provides no TN protection versus the bushi's attack.
