Yanjing is a formidable warrior in her own right. From a young age she had an affinity to the bow and her skills are impressive. Her calm zen archery produces impressive results, the arrows whispering across the battlefield as quietly as the falling blossom. Her ability to heal her sisters is of vital importance to their mission and without it they would have had to have given up on their quarry a long time ago.

Kenta is a true samurai in every sense of the word. As a boy he knew his path, the one he has walked for many cycles in service to his family and the name Takashi. A veteran of countless battles and campaigns, he is a master swordsman, no foe able to outflank him due to practised footwork and deft movements. Many times enemies foolishly thought they had struck the killing blow but the ancestors favour Kenta amongst all others. Though quietly spoken his presence in battle banishes any fear in his troops, steeling their hearts for victory.

Samurai culture has both military and feudal culture.  Everyone fits into the social pyramid where a leader had his trusted supporters under his command. They in turn had their own respective supporters under their command, and so on and so on. The Takashi retainers are all capable warriors in the service of a Takashi Samurai of a higher rank, willing to lay down their lives in service.

All lords maintain a healthy number of household guards, training warriors to keep them safe from their enemies. The Takashi guard’s body may not be as honed as that of the Ashigaru who constantly train and drill. This does not mean that their eyes are not sharp as blades and their ears keen as hawks, skills developed over the years watching for threats to their lords and ladies.
