Hello, if I have Furumaro in play and a 9 gold cost personality in my province with no abilities.. If trying to use Family Keep to pay for him, would the discount from Furumaro apply first, or could I have Family Keep pay 3 because he costs 9 and then have Furumaro apply his trait to have him cost 2 less..?
Furumaro and Family Keep
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.

Family Keep produces 3 Gold if you are paying for a card with a base Gold Cost of 9 or more. Furumaro does not affect its base Gold cost (see below) and you are still paying for a card with a base Gold Cost of 9 so Family Keep always produces 3 Gold for him.
Glossary, Base: "Base" refers to a stat, keyword, ability, or trait that exists on a card or other entity as printed (following the most recent printing) or initially created, without modifications from effects. A stat’s base value will not change.
