The Divine Empress Iweko I, the Child of the Heavens, long may she reign, is greatly pleased with the fruits of her vassals' labors in the distant colonies. Their tireless efforts in harvesting the resources of that ruined land have been a great boon in the rebuilding of the Emerald Empire in the aftermath of the Destroyer War some decades past. Tremendous progress has been made, and the empress is honored by her subjects' service, but there is more yet to be done.
Toward that end, it is the honor of the Imperial Heralds to bring word to Rokugan's people of the creation of a new branch within the Imperial bureaucracy: the Imperial Explorers. The task of exploring and marking the resources of the colonies is an enormous one, and a burden and honor that should not be borne by only a few clans. Instead, all clans, both great and minor, are invited to submit their young and industrious samurai for membership within the explorers.
The task before this August body will be the ongoing mapping of the former Ivory Kingdoms and the identification of resources to be harvested for use by the people of Rokugan. Successful members of the Imperial Explorers will not only be graced with service in the name of the Empress, but will earn a portion of their discoveries in the name of their family and clan, no doubt earning great accolades from their peers in the process.
All glory and honor to the Divine Empress,
The Imperial Herald
The winner of this tournament will see a legal non-unique personality affiliated with his clan join the ranks of the Imperial Explorers. This personality will appear in an upcoming expansion.

In the aftermath of the Destroyer War, the stability and the benevolence of the Empire of Rokugan under the rule of the Divine Empress Iweko I has returned the favor of the Celestial Heavens to the mortal realm. Once wrathful and conflicted, the great Elemental Dragons now look upon mankind with interest and appreciation, and find their works pleasing to the divine eye. A handful among men will be chosen and found worthy of the dragons' favor, and these men will possess blessings such as few in Rokugan have ever known.
The winner will select one Emperor Edition legal personality of the faction he played at the tournament. This personality will, in one manner or another, attract the attention of the Celestial Dragon and be granted that dragon's favor. This favor will manifest in different ways depending upon the nature of the dragon in question and the strengths of the winning clan, but each will gain significant power in the process, and grow to be a figure of great renown in their generation.
