Kakita Nakiko

Kakita Nakiko was a duelist and magistrate of the Crane Clan.

Station
Nakiko was the youngest daughter of a senior sensei at the Kakita Dueling Academy, and all her siblings excelled at the blade. She was a brilliant duelist but not an honorable soul, therefore Nakiko became yojimbo to an unimportant ambassador at a remote Minor Clan court.

Raising Star
Nakiko challenged and defeated the commander of a Great Clan's force sent against the Minor Clan. It redirected the Clan's ire to the Crane, which was nearly at war regardless. Her clan gained the endles gratitude of a Minor Clan, and in that, Nakiko was considered a success. She was appointed as an officer, a magistrate, a sensei, and for a brief period, the yojimbo for a Family Daimyo. Eventually Nakiko was sent as competitor in a Test of the Emerald Champion.
