An eclectic retinue of warriors plucked from the mainland by Shiho Hiroto while on his travels around the Empire. Among the group is a wild horseman of the steppes fighting alongside a strongman wielding a fiery log as his weapon of choice. Then we have a ritually scarred Michi monk trapped in endless suffering supported by two mysterious swordsmen who are identical in both manner and style. Finally, a venerable Shiho banner bearer who has spent countless years alone in the swamps thinking that the Dragon Wars still raged on around him. They have all sworn an oath of loyalty to the Drunken Master and seek to see the Shiho rule once more.

Fire is seen as the great purifier, destroying everything in its path. Some among the Temple of Ro-Kan seek to master that same path, which is often fraught with disaster. Botan has managed to merge his corporeal form - his flesh - with that which sets humans on the same standing as the gods, fire. He twists and turns, destroying all those that would wreak havoc on the poor, the downtrodden, and the defenceless.

He spins like one of those flame-devils rumoured to guard the deserts to the North of the Empire. His heart and fists burn with fury as he whirls from foe to foe delivering justice, retribution, and finally, purification. Botan is well-suited to form part of your Temple Warband as he offers excellent mobility with his ‘Cloudwalk’ power. He is also a respectable combat model who use his flames to finish off those he doesn’t stop with his fists.

Jinichi is a valuable member of The North Star who adds a slightly different approach to what they do. He has perfected fighting with a strange weapon that is a unique combination of blade and chain, and the whirring sound it makes as he spins it is often the last thing his enemies hear before they die. Because of its reach, it can quickly get between a samurai and his sword, thus breaching his defence leaving him open to attack. The blades are designed to cut and tear the flesh from his enemies bones, while the chain can immobilise the arms or legs of the unwary.

Jinichi is no stranger to the poison stores of his night-clad clan, and he incorporates this into his fighting style by anointing his blades with deadly toxins. Jinichi is a lethal killing machine with a penchant for tactics and terror.

The Jung are quick to tease Musa, calling him as valuable as a barnacle on a ship’s hull, and in part, they may be right. He lacks the dexterity to climb the rigging, fails time after time to tie the simplest knots, and suffers violently from seasickness. However, when an enemy hoves into view, the teasing stops, and the boasting begins as Musa is a fury like no other. Surefooted and aggressive, he more than makes up for his shortfall as a sailor by pounding his enemies into the planks of boats, wharves, and dockside taverns everywhere

“Say nothing, hear everything” is a motto often ascribed to the Satou clan, otherwise known as the Hare clan. Throughout the Empire and the isles, the hare is often seen as a ‘trickster’ creature, full of mischief and surprise, and the Satou are no different from the animal they chose as a visual representation.

The Satou clan are staunch allies of the Takashi clan and have been since they set foot in Jwar. While they are similar in martial prowess to the Takashi, there is one area of warfare where they succeed better than most, and that is in creating unusual weapons and tactics. Satou Togai is merely another warrior chosen to test their latest creation in the fiery crucible of battle. Clad in a heavy, flame-resistant suit or armour, Satou Togai wields an unorthodox weapon that is an unholy combination of steel and chain that gives it a range most opponents will underestimate much to their peril.

Perhaps this is a small scale version of something grander to come?

Satzuko specialises in the ancient art of massage and ki-manipulation, which is rare for a female among the Flower Houses. Traditionally, this role is given to the men who use their strength to knead the stress and tensions from a client’s body, but Satzuko is equally skilled and more than capable of soothing blocked chakras

allowing the Ki to flow correctly.

Her training will enable her to meditate for additional Ki to keep your models free from Markers and give them extra activations. However, she has low Melee and will need to be protected to do what she does best.

A drum! A drum! Death doth come! Before the fall of the Shiho clan at the hands of the duplicitous Takashi family, Yoshitaka was a drummer in the ranks of the Shiho who would lead his men proudly into war. He, and others, would play what the men came to call, The March of the Eagle, which was perfect for stretching out the legs and devouring the miles as they moved from skirmish to skirmish. Alas, Yoshitaka is all that is left of these battle field musicians whose drums filled their enemies hearts with fear and dread when they heard them in the wind.

With Yoshitaka in your ranks, you’ll be able to gain more ground by running your troops straight at your enemies, who will no doubt be cowering in fear as they hear his drumbeats of death

Mako was a renowned swordsman and respected general before many of the current generation of the Takashis were even born, he was one of the eight great Blademasters of the Empire and was appointed a General of the Imperial Armies, leading the Golden Sentinels before his age caused him to retire. Often referred to as “Uncle Mako” it may not be clear exactly who’s uncle he is as even Hida refers to him as his Uncle.
