Ashiryo Ataka

Ataka was the governor of the Lion Hamana province during the Clan War. An unknown ronin was brought to his presence to explain a sake house brawl, where the wave man had bested a local magistrate, Ujikeme. The yoriki Hijiko told the ronin defeated her fellow with his bare hands, and Ataka promoted her as his doshin and chief Magistrate on the spot. Ataka offered the ronin to fill the gap as yoriki, and the Lion governor did not hesitated when he told his true identity, as Ginawa, wielder of the wicked Bloodsword Revenge.
