PC Descriptions

[Agasha Daikumo]

Name: Agasha Daikumo
Clan: Dragon
Occupation: Shugenja
Age: 23
Height: Too tall
Build: A bit beefy
Skin: Sunkissed
Hair: Black croped
Eyes: Light brown
Marital Status: Family is currently negotiating, no clue with who, not my choice, not my problem

Daikumo isn't exactly being gotten rid of by his family by sending him to the legions. It doesn't really work that way after all, this is a relatively prestigious appointment. But they do recognize that he doesn't really... fit?... that's a good word. His nature is not as congenial as the his sister or parents, he's not as courteous at all times as he should be... and he knows how to be so it's really a conscious choice. The only thing he and his family have in common is his training, and he does pretty well as a shugenja and smith. But the personality clashes make working together a hassle for his family at times. They believe that military life might actually suit him a bit more. He knows how to follow orders and wield a weapon after all, and what military unit doesn't want a little more healing from a priest? Yeah.. they're not dumping him on the legion. He just fits better there... probably... right?

[Daichi]

Name: Daichi
Clan: Nope
Occupation: Swordsman for hire
Age: 24
Height: 5'8"
Build: Athletic, if a little underweight
Skin: Tan, from toiling under the sun
Hair: Black
Eyes: Crystal Blue
Marital Status: You're kidding, right?

Daichi is very clearly a ronin. No mon, no resources. The clothes on his back are rough, though oddly well maintained for someone of such limited means. He hails from Otosan Uchi, and has a history of Wandering the merchant and entertainment districts, protecting those that needed protecting from rough threats.

It's common knowledge that he is a bastard, with the whispers of rumors that he is a son of a whore, though if he hears anyone say as such he is willing to answer that insult with a challenge of steel.

On his person, he always carries a katana that is well loved and shows embellishment well above his station. But also at his waist is an empty sheath of a wakizashi. That sheath is adorned with the markings of a Phoenix samurai, though the sheath has seen much, much better days.

A man of honor, he has found himself lucky to be brought in to the Emerald Legion, as he serves the Emperor and all of Rokugan with all his soul. And the skill to show why he has lived so long as a wave-man.

[Utaku Mukai]

Name: Utaku Mukai
Clan: Unicorn
Family: Utaku
Occupation: Legionnaire - outrider, scout, skirmish archer
Age: 19
Height: 5'9
Build: Slim
Skin: Weathered
Hair: Brown
Eyes: Brown
Marital Status: Single

Other than her Unicorn colors Mukai does not present much of the stereotype they might imagine when they hear 'Utaku'. Her hair is cut short, her chest bound tight, and 'maiden' is very low on the list of terms one would apply upon seeing her even if they didn't know how she'd react at being called such. This, of course, is be design and by desire. Mukai has no issues being a woman but the last thing she wants is to be mistaken for one of the contemptible Battle Maidens and their backward traditions. It is very telling that the Shinjo mon, kept pristine, is large and close to her heart while that of her family is nearly forgotten and often stained with the dirt of travel.

While it would not be quite correct to call Mukai anti-social, she does not actively dislike being around others, a short temper and a short life spent often in the wilderness has left her lacking in social skill and even worse when it comes to a knowledge of the arts and other courtly matters. That said as long as the conversation is grounded and one avoids triggering her anger she is as sociable as any other legionnaire.

Just never, ever call her a Battle Maiden.

[Kitsuki Edogawa]

Name: Kitsuki Edogawa
Gender: Male
Marital Status: Betrothed
Occupation: Diplomat
Age: 19
Height: 5' 6"
Build: Wiry
Hair: Light Brown
Eyes: Green

Edogawa seems like a friendly, playful sort. His tone is generally pleasant and good-natured, and often mirthful. He is often found writing, playing a game or idly tossing the wooden toy he carries.

But, he is a harbinger of death. He is the last living member of his family. He's lost his mentor and his first betrothed as well. How many other bodies are there? Who will he curse next? These are the whispers that follow him. They are perhaps why he has joined the Legion, to better understand his curse. Or, perhaps, to spare his new betrothed from it.

[Agasha Shione]

Name: Agasha Shione
Gender: Female
Marital Status: Single
Occupation: Alchemist
Age: 19
Height: 4' 10"
Build: Slight
Hair: Black
Eyes: Green

Agasha Shione is a promising young alchemist of the Dragon Clan. Her sensei, in true Dragon fashion, decided that Shione could learn more, faster, out in the world and seconded her to the Imperial Legions whereupon Shione has kind of been stuck for the last couple of years.

The work is fulfilling for after all what else are other considerations to meeting one's duties and obligations to one's lord and the Emperor to a samurai? But Shione was expecting to get recalled back to the mountains: after all, those brilliant new discoveries she's surely to make won't be discovering themselves.

News of the march to the Wall has, well, soured the mood of the young Agasha immensely. This is very much in the -opposite- direction of where she thought she'd be going. Nevertheless, one must make do with what one has. Who is to say what discoveries can be made in this new development? But who can also say how much such things would cost...
