For this setting, a character's starting wealth is considered his or her monthly stipend. That being said, characters only have one month's worth of available cash at the start of the game. For example, Kakita Kanemochi's starting equipment includes 10 koku. At the end of each month, his lord will move an additional 10 koku to Kanemochi's household account. Additionally, the Wealth advantage increases a character's monthly stipend instead of their yearly stipend.
Returning characters will have more funds at their disposal, calculated as per follows:
Funds = Game number * monthly stipend on character sheet when game for which character last took part ended.
Game number for previous games are as follows:
Wonders of Asakaze 2
New Kalani 5
Banner of Stars 10

The righteous need not cower before the drumbeat of human progress. Though the song of yesterday fades into the challenge of tomorrow, the Fortunes still watch and judge us. Evil lurks in the datalinks as it lurked in the alleys of yesteryear. But it was never the alleys that were evil.
