I've been browsing uoherald, stratics and other sites found through google for little over 2 hours and found very little. When Samurai Empire came out, was there any lore or story lines about Tokuno besides the brief introduction pasted below?

My friend (Lucia) is putting together her background to have grown up in Tokuno, but would like to not contradict established UO and rp lore.

Any help would be appreciated.

This is what I found so far :
THE TOKUNO ISLANDS
It turns out that Sosaria is a larger world than we knew. When Mondain shattered the Gem of Immortality it did not, as was previously believed, destroy the Land of the Feudal Lords. Rather, the continent collided with another land, creating a time rip that would have lasting repercussions. The survivors on the part of the Land of the Feudal Lords that would become the Tokuno Islands used their magic to protect their lands from outsiders. In this way the Tokuno Islands remained unknown to the inhabitants of Britannia until now....

The Tokuno Islands are a world wholly separate from that of Britannia. Full of strange creatures and people and customs, the islands are as mysterious as they are beautiful. However, the same lakes, mountains, and gorges that give the land its beauty also serve to carve it into naturally-formed sections and regions. The Tokuno Islands comprise many islands, but there are three main ones.


Thank you for any help.

Samuria Empire was an ultima-unrelated expansion with the pure intent to attrack more japanese player, wich we already have plenty of. It was a huge non-sucsess in that it halved the playerbase from 250000 to 130000. Were all still trying to forget the expansion ever came out.

But if you really want to know more about this travesty (when you should be joining my guild) go here

the movies about the ninja they bring in to help them are hilarious

As far as within community lore, there is currently a group in Tokuno roleplaying as the Empire, with an Empress Rryn Anyai. There is a bit of community lore to go with it. They are based out of the main island, Makoto, I believe. I am not certain about the other two islands.
