===Dungeons and Dragons=== Rokugan was, very briefly, an official [[Dungeons & Dragons]] campaign setting during [[Dungeons & Dragons 3rd edition|3rd Edition]]. The 3rd Edition version of ''[[Oriental Adventures]]'' attempted to both update the original 1E version of the book and present L5R's setting as an example for how to make an Asian themed campaign. The 3.5 updates for the material presented in this book are pretty scattered. [[Shugenja]] and [[Wu Jen]] (which was included for generic Asian campaigns), along with some of their unique spells, were updated in ''[[Complete Book Series|Complete Divine]]'' (which stripped it of most of its Rokugan fluff, except the fact that they don't start with armor proficiency) and ''Complete Arcane'' respectively. The Bear Warrior, Weapon Master and Tattooed Monk prestige classes were updated in ''Complete Warrior'', which also included a completely separate, and much worse, "Samurai" class. Everything else however was updated in [[Dragon Magazine]] issue 318. "Oriental Adventures 3.0" gave way to a full-fledged "Legend of the Five Rings D20" spin-off setting. Unlike ''Oriental Adventures'' these are merely using the 3rd edition rules via [[Open Gaming License]] rather than official D&D products. This started with a "Rokugan D20 Campaign Setting" corebook, which included options for playing [[Nezumi]] and [[Naga]] PCs as well as members of the Clans, and was then expanded with multiple books, consisting of the following: * The Complete Exotic Arms Guide * Creatures of Rokugan * Magic of Rokugan * Bloodspeakers * The Hidden Emperor * Fortunes & Winds * Secrets of the Scorpion * Secrets of the Dragon * Secrets of the Lion * Secrets of the Phoenix * Secrets of the Crab * Secrets of the Crane * Secrets of the Shadowlands * Secrets of the Unicorn * Secrets of the Mantis * Way of the Daimyo * Way of the Ninja * Way of the Thief * Way of the Samurai * Way of the Shugenja * Way of the Open Hand Following FFG bowing out of the TTRPG industry altogether, EDGE Studio (formed from those members of FFG that still wanted to make RPGs) would again try to port Rokugan as a setting, releasing ''Adventures of Rokugan'' as a third-party book for [[Dungeons & Dragons Fifth Edition]] in 2022. The reception to this was...a bit mixed, as it feels tacked together by people who were desperately rushing to get something out.
