Each Great Clan is a HW culture.
Each Family is a HW religion.
...and it isn't too hard to come up with more then just two occupation keywords, each of which can be different for each clan. Artisan, Bushi, Courtier, Magistrate, Shugenja, Monk, Yojimbo. Advanced experience occupations: Judge, Daimyo, Sensei, General. Plus magic keywords can be "school secrets" (let's face it, HW magic isn't too pyrotechnic) whilst shugenja can be sorcerors, Kitsu sodan-senzo can be shaman, and monks can use mysticism...
