Jomyako

A shugenja serving in the armies at the Battle of Oblivion's Gate, Soshi Jomyako fell to the Shadowlands forces in the heaviest fighting at Volturnum. She was taken from the battlefield by ogres to face a fate too horrible to imagine. Shortly after she arrived at her captors' camp, Jomyako began to hear whispers that offered her tremendous power if only she would surrender her soul. Dreading the alternative, Jomyako accepted the immeasurable power of a Dark Oracle.

A few months after accepting her Oracular duties, Jomyako gave birth to a son she had concieved during the march on Volturnum. Knowing that her humanity was rapidly draining away, Jomyako found the boy's father, the Phoenix Clan bushi Shiba Katsuda, magically restored his mental facilities despite his corruption, and gave him custody of their son. Jomyako has only recently discovered that Katsuda still serves Daigotsu. Her detatchment allows only rare moments of affection for her son Katsu, but in those moments she suffers terrible pain over her loss.

Of all the Dark Oracles, Jomyako's reason for loyalty to Daigotsu is the simplest: the order that the Dark Lord has brought to the Shadowlands permits her to feel some semblance of her life before she entered the Shadowlands. Before his rule, her like was a chaotic whirlwind of madness and despair, and she welcomes the order Daigotsu brought.

The Dark Blessing of Air
Soshi Jomyako prefers to remain in solitude, permitting visitors only in certain circumstances such as when her son or Daigotsu wishes to see her. Althought more approachable than other Oracles, Jomyako is unlikely to bestow her blessing upon mortals.
