====Tenken in the Game====

Whether he is a mercenary, a vassal to a feudal lord, an agent of some other higher power, or even a simple wanderer, the tenken is often underestimated at the peril of his enemies, but recognized by those who know of him as a fearsome warrior.

'''Adaptation:''' [[Grimoire Tenken (3.5e Alternate Class Feature)|Grimoire Tenken]] by [[User:Ghostwheel|Ghostwheel]].

'''Sample Encounter:''' Tojiro, a 12 level tenken, is hired by another party to test the capabilities of the PC's. He has orders to use nonlethal force, but will not abide by them if he feels that his life in endangered. Tojiro is intended to be a challenge for a party of 4 level 9 PC's.

''EL 9:'' Tojiro enters by helping the PC's deal with another threat, preferably something of low level so he will not have to reveal his capabilities. He will respond to this threat with ruthless precision, and then approach the PC's with an entreaty of peace before explaining his intent to challenge them.
