A topic from AEG's L5R CCG Rules forum, copied for Oracle of the Void from a copy of the forum saved in October 2015, so pages it didn't save are missing. Players' names are left out; the rules officials are named. Rulings are as they stood on these dates; later rulings, the rulebooks and the Rules Archive may differ.

Bayushi Tomo:
Battle: Any number of times per battle, if Tomo is opposed, give her -1C: Give her +2F.
Kotetsu Shinri:
This Personality has a minimum Chi of 5
So since her Chi can never go below 5, does that mean that I can effectively pump her force up again and again, as the Armor doesn't allow her Chi to go below 5, or can I not use her ability at all because she can't lose the Chi to pay the cost?
