dojo

DOJO
ROOM DETAILS: An expansive room resembling a Japanese dojo, featuring traditional Japanese artwork, tatami flooring, and sliding rice paper doors that open out onto a large Japanese-style garden for meditation. Inexplicably, the dojo is always perfectly heated to 105 °F (41 °C) with a humidity of 40%, regardless of the weather outside. A variety of practice weapons line the south wall — from sai to katana, bo staffs, nunchucks, and everything in between. Several wooden practice dummies are available for training as well.

Displayed behind reinforced glass cases are a collection of Edo-period samurai armor and various weapons dating as far back as the Kamakura period. A massive, dubiously culturally appropriating portrait of Jonty dressed as a samurai in full armor adorns the center of the north wall; unsettlingly, his eyes seem to follow you throughout the room, but that's probably nothing.

ROOM LOCATION: Ground floor, east wing. The garden leads to the east entrance of the dojo, with the west leading back into the manor itself.

ANY NOTES: Shanks uses the dojo to teach haki to anyone interested in manifesting or harnessing their spiritual energy. He doesn't keep regular hours or hold regular classes. Lessons are generally one-on-one, but occasionally he'll hold group lessons which the Balfours have started to affectionately call Hot Haki.
