A collectible card game (CCG) set in the world of Rokugan (the same as L5R) that has got a definite Middle-eastern feeling to it. Think of 1001 nights and you got it. Everything in the game centers on Medinaat al-Salaam, the Jewel of the Desert, a sprawling city where different factions vie for control. As of the Awakening set there are 12 factions in the game. A very short description of them:
Assassins – You guessed it, assassins. ;)
Moto – Mongols, likes to raid
Senpet – Ancient Egyptians
Ashalan – Immortal alien star gazers
Qabal – Rebellious Jinn summoners
