August Personages of the Dragon
Mirumoto Yokuni – Clan Champion
Mirumoto Yokuni, the second oldest son of Yakuzi, is the current Clan Champion. A gifted swordmaster and duelist, Yokuni strives to bring the Dragon clan into the modern era, attempting to show the empire that the Dragon Clan can be valuable members of the empire, and set a good example for all Clans. A measure of a man is not only in his ability to fight duels, or wage war…but to control the powers of the mind and spirit, these are also as important. The mystic insights of the Dragon serve Yokuni well, as he often succeeds where others thought failure was inevitable.
Togashi Yodin
Togashi Yodin (formally Mirumoto Yodin), who has dedicated his life to uncovering lost knowledge that will help bring his Clan and the Empire to enlightenment. After becoming one of the ize zume, Yodin took the name of Clan founder Togashi. Yodin, sometimes referred to as The Seeker (a nickname given to him by Yakuni), is an accomplished martial artist. Seeking to perfect his mind as well as his body, he often seeks out strange and hidden locations to test his skills.
Kitsuki Higoshi
The shrewd and charasmatic Kitsuki Higoshi (often called the Inquisitor) has made his reputation on being a clever investigator. He uses, as many in the Kitsuki family do, a method called deduction in order to investigate crimes in the Dragon lands. Although he did attend Shugenja school, he has devoted most of his time since graduation studying deductive reasoning and investigation techniques. He has learned to use his Shugenja powers in aiding him in his investigations, using both logic and intuition together to great effect. His incorporation of intuition has upset some in his family, who are more purists in terms of the family method.
Higoshi's recent string of solved cases (including the famous case of the stolen ceremonial katana that belonged to the Dragon Bushi schoolmaster, Hitomi Tetsuo) finally caught the attention of clan champion, Mirumoto Yokuni. Yokuni has promoted Higoshi to the position of Lord High Magistrate of the Dragon Lands in charge of all investigations conducted by the Dragon. Higoshi still insists on conducting important investigations himself. Yokuni also uses Higoshi on diplomatic missions, as he always makes a positive impression on those with whom he interacts (which also helps in gathering information for his investigations). In his spare time, he often discusses military strategy and psychology with General Yama.
Togashi Yoshida
Togashi Yoshida is the son of the Togashi family daimyo, Togashi Satsu, himself a descendant of the original clan founder. He is also the cousin of the Dragon clan champion, Mirumoto Yokuni. Although a member of the monastic order, the ize zume, Yoshida is a skilled martial artist and swordsman. Before attending the ize zume school, he did train with the sword extensively with Yokuni and at times Grandmaster Hitomi Tetsuo. He has never stopped practicing. His often uses his monk skills to augment his prowess with a blade. He does use the Mirumoto style of two-sword fighting. Yoshida is a thoughtful, even-tempered, charismatic man, and not without a sense of humor. Many notice the similarities between he and his cousin Yokuni. Though he and Yama don't see eye-to-eye on several issues, they have a respectful relationship. Yoshida and Yodin get along quite well, both coming from the same monastic order and having a similar worldview. Yoshida finds that his ideas often carry more weight with Yama when sent indirectly through Yodin.
Kitsuki Sato
Kitsuki Sato is a student of the Kitsuki method of investigation. As such, he is highly gifted at deductive logic and evidence examination. He is the former teacher and a distant relative of Kitsuki Higoshi, and recommended Higoshi to Yokuni. Though still relatively active and in good health at age 50, he did suffer a leg injury during a horse-riding accident when he was a child that left him with a limp in his right leg which affects his ability to move around. Though he can walk, he is not terribly mobile and often uses a cane to help him keep his balance.
Mirumoto Yama
Mirumoto Yakuzi, former champion of the Dragon Clan, had three sons. His eldest, Yama, has proven to be a gifted military tactician, and now is the general of the Dragon armies. Once thought to be the one who would replace his father (now deceased) as the Clan’s champion, Yama has been far too obsessed with military matters to get too heavily involved in other aspects of clan business. Yama is also a practitioner of the Mirumoto dueling technique.
