Although trained in the ways of the Samurai, Minato was always destined to follow his own unique path. A brute of a man, more at home in a water house than the courts. His body tells the stories of countless battles, wearing each scar proudly as a mark of honour to his physical prowess. That is not to say that he is all brawn, a cunning and clever leader, hiding from the Prefecture in plain sight. In battle he wields his trademark anchor, launching it through the air making it appear as light as a Tengu feather. Those unlucky enough to be caught by his attentions sent sprawling, dazed and disorientated.

All captains must have a trusted Juhin and there is none more trusted, in any port in the Gulf of the Three Brothers, than Yuji. A seasoned sailor and servant of the Jung, for many cycles he has barked the orders of his captains, the Kaizoku darting to complete his commands, an inspiration to them. Never far is his oldest friend Same, no one is able to catch Yuji napping with the old monkey around.

How the transformation will take hold no one can be sure, Akimoto is taking on the very image of Orochi. In the heat of the battle his allies claim he transforms further, this claim is supported by the opponents that flee in terror in the face of his onslaught.

Many have failed to notice the snake like qualities of Ayako so beguiled by her beauty, the Ito could probably have married into a greater clan before her transformation. A Shisai of the highest order, when she combines strength with her sisters she can become nigh-unstoppable.

A curse to some and a blessing to others! Azami, it seems, is blessed with the dread countenance of Orochi. When she turns to face her foes, scores are fixed in terror, unable to defend or even think of an attack! She fights with an entangling chain rather than a noble weapon, using the weighted ends to crack skulls and bones. The spiralling motion of her chain captures her foes as if they were ensnared in the coils of the snake.

Azami is a great model to send against the enemies finest warriors as she negates their parry. Even the bravest Samurai may fail a test against her Fear (6) with the Terror trait. This allows her to reliably grapple enemies, inflicting severe penalties in melee while a second model comes to finish the enemy off. She also has Lightfooted and Jump Up, ensuring she can always get to her target. Azami is an ideal addition to the Ito Starter Box and fits the Serpents Coil theme as a combat model.

The discovery of an ancient temple dedicated to the Snake God, Orochi, has set the Ito on a course of rebellion against the ruling Takashi Clan and their allies. At home on the jungle island of Izu, they practice honeyed words, laced with poisonous flattery, while plotting the downfall of their enemies. Imbued with the serpentine skills of speed, venom and cunning, the Ito Clan are a coiled snake around the throats of their enemies, squeezing ever tighter. Renowned for their duplicity and untrustworthiness, it would be unwise to turn your back on the Ito Clan as you’ll never know when they may strike, but strike they will.

Box contains five miniatures supplied with 30mm bases and eleven full colour cards.

A seasoned veteran of many conflicts and a loyal servant of the Ito clan. On the battlefield Hitoshi skilfully wields the sasumata to immobilise his enemies, pinning them to the spot after knocking them from their feet with a deft spin of his pole arm, enabling his comrades to close and finish them with little difficulty. Although the Ito clan were laughed at by other clans for their development and implementation of the sasumata, now in open war many are made to reconsider their opinions as the effectiveness of this unusual weapon cannot be denied.

Ito Itsunagi is the eldest of the heirs to the Ito clan. His training has been second to none and his skill at arms is quite astounding. A brutal and coldblooded killer, his only downfall is his arrogance, mocking opponents with his lack of armour.

Orochi found Kaihime a worthy recipient of her gifts and bestowed upon this deadly samurai archer the means to carry out her will. Her keen eye and swift arm sew dead across the battlefield. Her arrows find their way through even the toughest Minimoto armour and if the cold Ito steel doesn’t finish her unlucky targets, Orochi’s blood soon devourers them from inside, leaving those praying for a swift end.

Little is known of Itsunagi Ito’s enforcer. The “Red Death” as he is known in Okyo, named so for the mask that never leaves his face. Some whisper that Orochi’s gift has warped and distorted his face. What is clear is that his mind is definitely twisted. The apparent satisfaction he makes from cleaving his foes in half, or the calmness in battle reflects the actions of one who is teetering close to madness. Rumours and conjecture aside what is undisputable is that Masunagi Ito is a fearsome and brutal warrior on the field of battle.

Another daughter of the Ito clan succumbed to the temptation of Orochi’s Blessing. Once a beautiful child of the Ito, with many a samurai lord interested in claiming her hand for a son. That was all before she started the visions that led her to her one and only partner, for now she is wed to Orochi. The Blessing awakening a deep power within her, granting her the power to grant minor gifts to fellow believers to conduct Orochi’s bidding. Her gaze able to bend the minds of even the most resolute to her own ends or freeze them in place until they might serve a purpose for this deadly and beautiful Shugenja of the Ito.
