Book of Earth
Monk Orders – Should have been deleted altogether. A layout error resulted in the section’s retention. Ignore the mechanical benefits, although the information on the orders is largely correct. Monk character creation rules are found exclusively in the Book of Air. This only applies to non-clan-affiliated monastic orders, not the Dragon Tattooed Orders.
Timeline - The entry described as "Gusai family name awarded" actually takes place in the year 429 rather than 438. References to the Empress Yugozohime should actually refer to the Emperor.
Book of Water
General Game Mechanics – Reference to the deleted Difficulties table persists. The table was deliberately omitted because it was of dubious value. The reference to the table should have been deleted as well, but was not.
Raises - On page 86, it reads "A character may only Raise a number of times equal to his Void Ring." This is incorrect. The passage should read "When making a Skill roll, a character may make a maximum number of Raises equal to his Void Ring or his Skill Rank, whichever is higher. On all non-Skill rolls, a character may make a maximum number of Raises equal to his Void Ring."
Skills - The second sentence of the Rank 7 Mastery Ability description for Medicine (page 98, "You roll an additional die when determining how many Wounds you treat.") is redundant and should be deleted.
Skills - The description of Storytelling (page 99) refers to a "Perception/Bard" test. This should be Perception/Storytelling.
Skills - The description for Jiujitsu should include the Emphasis: Atemi, which allows practitioners to utilize certain nerve strike Kiho, which are in turn found in the Book of Air.
Advantages: Great Potential - The proper reading of this Advantage should include "...the number of Rasies you may make is not limited to your Void Ring or your rank in that Skill."
Kakita Bushi School – Etiquette is listed twice. The proper Skill list is: Etiquette, Iaijutsu, Kenjutsu (Katana), Kyujutsu, Meditation, any High skill, any High or Bugei skill.
Doji Courtier School - The first sentence of the Rank 1 Technique should read as follows: You may add twice your Honor Rank to all Courtier, Etiquette, Lore (Heraldry), and Storytelling (Oratory) rolls.
Mirumoto Bushi School - The Rank 4 Technique has a clause omitted. The third sentence should be: You may not make more than twice your normal number of attacks per round using this Technique.
Kitsune Shugenja School – Beginning Spells were omitted. They are: Sense, Commune, Summon, 3 Earth, 2 Air, and 1 Water spell.
Iuchi Shugenja School - The correct Beginning Spells entry for this School is as follows: Sense, Commune, Summon, Counterspell, Heart of Nature, Nature's Touch, any 3 Water spells, any 2 Earth spells, and any 1 Air spell.
Book of Fire
Types of Rolls, Skill Rolls (page 158) - The sentence "More difficult tasks may impose a higher Target Number, and may treat a character with only a couple of Skill Ranks as Unskilled..." is in error. This was part of a system for sliding TNs that was later removed because it was overly complicated. This sentence should have been deleted.
Special Combat Situations – The Grapple description refers to a non-existent Wrestling Skill. This should be the Jiujitsu Skill.
Kata - The Phoenix kata Tail of the Sun references an Initiative bonus to polearms that was removed in late playtesting. A corrected version of this kata will be forthcoming soon.
Book of Air
Spells: Yari of Air - The following sentence was omitted from the spell write-up: "This weapon is wielded like a normal yari, but you may use your School Rank plus one in place of the Spears Skill."
Spells: Everburning Rage - The duration of this spell should be Full Concentration.
Book of Void
None as of yet.
Miscellaneous
There are errors in the map's legend, please take note when looking for certain symbols that their meanings may be reversed.
