So...Strange question here, but this It's a sincere one.
I want to run a game with erotic charged elements set in Rokugan (the setting from legends of the 5 rings). I would like to do something along the lines of Corruption of Champions in theme, though the complete opposite in tone and genre. The thing is, I'm not entirely sure how I'd do it without significantly hurting the 'feel' of L5R. Is that even possible? Any experiences doing something similar?
>Obligatory FATAL post Seriously though, what exactly are you taking from CoC? The prevalence of horny monstergirls? Frequent rape? Lots of transformation potions and cursed objects? I don't really see how you could play it straight without it getting out of control.

Endless hordes of horsecocked furries

It's entirely possible to run a L5R game with a focus on courtly intrigue, simply write the courtly intrigue in such a manner that seduction and/or marriage alliances are put center stage as the characters' main methodology. You can run what plot-wise is a normal L5R game, while still getting to fap under the table

Make the PCs weak so that they have to rely on the traditional tools of women in male-dominant societies. All the players are courtesans, wives, doxies and street prostitutes without any combat skills at all.
They have to use their wiles and influence to get what they want, and no, assassination will not work against these hardened backstabbing bureaucrats. Or maybe it will work if you're in the right position...

Corruptiom through lust, purity as ideal thpugh barely possible. Defeat less lethal but corrupting snd/or humiliating. Taint and mutation but in a l5r mutation would be hide or seppuku because if foind out would be outright execution.

Theme not tone.

The theme of CoC is still horsecocks and fursona self-inserts, it hasn't had any substantial corruption themes since it was called Unnamed Text Game.
Noah Edwards
Then, thats what I mean. The "unamed text game" themes.

I'd suggest checking out Kagematsu, but it's probably not what you're asking for.
