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.
Poorly Chosen Allies reads: Limited: Choose a player who has two or more different Clan alignments among Personalities he controls. He loses 3 Honor.

You don't need to assume that, it's true. See Clan Alignment: Legal Clan alignments in Celestial Edition are: * Crab Clan * Crane Clan * Dragon Clan * Lion Clan * Mantis Clan * Phoenix Clan * Scorpion Clan * Spider Clan * Unicorn Clan
No other keywords indicate a Clan Alignment (in Celestial Edition).
