Hida Kiyosue

Hida Kiyosue was a bushi of the Crab Clan. In 1117 he was the commander of a party that entered the Shadowlands chasing the Shadow Oni, a monster which needed a living host, a mind to fill with hubris and vice. Kiyosue was killed by his shugenja Kuni Ritsuko, after he was possessed by the oni. Ritsuko also realized the demon had passed onto her, so she ordered Hiruma Gakuto to chain her to a nearby tree, and left her alone, waiting death, forcing the Shadow Oni to die, as it would not find another suitable host in the vicinity.
