I wrote above what the main difference is. I also mentioned in the expansion topic that the shadow ability is an overkill.
What's illogical about it? That being a Fury who found himself in Ikazkan for the first time, he didn't want to answer questions from a random person he had just seen? Do you answer questions on the street from a random homeless person about your personal life? (this isn't saying that Jingo is a homeless person). If not, then why are you so illogical?
Secondly, he's not a cat.
Thirdly, Jingo said that he knows from Rurek about the Fire Lords' raid on Kofu and how it ended.
Is the option of "sending an avenger" possible? Quite possibly. Is the "attack" justified? Quite possibly. I would have dismissed it as "the guy was just scared and ran away" if I could assemble a team in another way. But you didn't want to (for various reasons), and I didn't get any NPCs. As a result, I never became a "dungeon explorer," and the only fun thing is calculating Turik...
