In the Empire of Rokugan, there are two groups of samurai who are exalted above all others. The first is the collection of individuals known as the Emperor’s Chosen, men and women chosen directly by the Emperor or Empress to serve the throne directly, including the Imperial Advisor, the Imperial Chancellor, the Shogun, the Voice of the Emperor, and the Imperial Treasurer. The other such group is the Jeweled Champions, a group of samurai who ascend to the highest levels of society through achievement, typically by succeeding at a great tournament held among the most gifted individuals in the whole of Rokugan.

Starting with The Harbinger, we have decided to test a new system to deal with promo legalities. You will notice that on all promos one of the following will appear:

1) A Date
2) TBA
3) Upon Release

If a date appears, then the promo will become legal on that date. If TBA appears, then the date is To Be Announced, and will be listed in the promo legality page, which can be found here. Upon release will be printed on any alternate art promo card, and will be legal for tournament use as soon as you receive it.
