Kakita Bushi: 4

A social bushi trained as a Kakita duelist. He is a busybody, vain and weak around the ladies. He skilled in the sword and spear. He is an artisan with word, paper and blade. A smidge cynical about the ranking structure of Rokugan society (at least when it is not in his favor).

They fought through the Crab/Oni forces at Beiden pass (helping the Ronin force) and helped stave off the Crab invasion of Otosan Utchi while looking to destroy the evil helmet of evil power. Now they are tasked with fighting a war of leadership for the Miya. They are sent to gather forces from the Lion forces currently fighting a border skirmish with the Crane (again).

The group controled of the Matsu "Lion's Pride" and the other half Miya Samurai in order to Stop the crazed Miya Daimyo from possessing the helmet (or being possessed by it).
