Moto Sahir (Unicorn) (Shugenja)
There are some few Unicorn shugenja whose ancestry owes more to the lands beyond Rokugan than the Empire itself. The blood of djinn and demons runs in their veins, giving them the ability to command the elements in such a way that seems bizarre and even blasphemous to normal shugenja. The number of such individuals has increased slightly since the Moto joined the Unicorn clan. When casting magic in such a fashion, the Sahir must use care to avoid drawing scrutiny from samurai outside the Unicorn clan, traditional shugenja may even accuse the character of heresy.

The Moto Sahir's unique outlook on magic allows them feats other shugenja would envy. You have no Elemental Affinity or Deficiency. You may choose to cast any spell of Mastery Level 3 or lower (4 or lower of your Elemental Affinity) in one round without the need for raises to reduce casting time. In fact, you can not make raises of any kind when casting a spell in this manner, although you may use any Free Raises or other benefits that are applicable.
Casting a spell in such a manner does not require any scrolls or other objects. Using a scroll, or having an innate ability, provides no additional benefit.
Affinity/Deficiency: none
