Bushido is a game of savage battles, of cunning stratagems and last-ditch defences, and where debts of honour are paid in blood.

In Bushido, the fate of the world hangs not on armies but on individual heroes, people of extraordinary capacity, attuned to the all-permeating life force known as Ki. This force is the fabric of the Bushido universe, and those with the appropriate training or natural talent can tap into this energy source and gain seemingly superhuman powers. In the world of Bushido, the delicate tapestry of Ki – and thus the universe itself – is threatened by the forces of imbalance, and it is up to you to protect it – or help rip it apart.

In a game of Bushido, nothing less than the fate of the universe is at stake. Are you ready for the challenge of the Way of the Warrior?

In the shadows and dark corners of the world, the worshippers of Yurei are gathering force. The many members of this Cult may not even be aware that they are serving the same dark masters, but serve them they do – the Yurei Bargain, which in its various forms allows control over life and death, has proven a temptation to many different people who would otherwise have nothing in common. In the Cult of Yurei, you may think yourself the master of your own fate but you are always advancing the unfathomable goals of dark unseen masters. Even a puppet master has someone pulling his strings...

The Yuta of Yurei are three fell-hearted sisters walking the dark paths of the world, sowing chaos and corruption wherever they go. Having made Yurei’s Dark Bargain for the promise of power and life everlasting, they have become one, united as a coven, shrieking their wants and desires into the night, and always at the expense of others, never themselves. They combine their powers to cast spells long-forgotten for a reason, conjurations that bring forth nothing but malice and disease and malefic yokai dripping with hate. They haunt the dark places of Jwar, picking over graves and battlefields like carrion crows so that they can raise Gashadokuro skeletons and summon Kairai to aid their plans of ill-intent. But three was once four; there was another sister before they became a triumvirate. Her name is Hikari, and because she rejected Yurei’s bargain, her own sisters killed her, rendering her Soulless.

Each Yuta model has access to some of the most potent and expensive Ki Feats in the game; they pool their Ki to allow them to cast these foul incantations. Their shared Ki means they cannot use their magic on each other. Hikari, the fallen Yuta, offers more options to Yuta players as her now soulless nature allows her to automatically win opposed ki tests.
