“It is impossible to organize such a grandiose event on this short notice! We need master brewers, multiple top-tier entertainers, the finest florists — all contacted and assembled by the week’s end!” “I can arrange that,” Daidoji Yori calmly replied. Shocked, Doji Noa asked, “Really?” “Yes.” “Within a week?” “Dear Noa,” Yori laughed, “I have served on the Trading Council for eight years. If I can’t get something, I know someone who can.

Types: Interpersonal

Effects: The following apply to a character with the Well Connected in [City] distinction:

• Your lifestyle or upbringing introduced you to a multitude of diverse people at all levels of society in a particular city (such as Friendly Traveler Village or the City of Lies), and you know how to find people who can get you the resources you need in that place. While they do not provide those resources free of charge, they are happy to give you information and can sometimes broker deals. Additionally, you occasionally meet people from this city during your travels, and when you do, you can strike up a friendly rapport to get similar benefits in other places.

• When performing a check to gather information, find items for sale or loan, or interact with people from the city you have chosen (such as a Commerce [Water] check to buy or sell something in that city or a Culture [Water] check to learn what current events in the city are generating gossip), you may reroll up to two dice.
