Tsi Wenfu

Heritage
Tsi Wenfu was a gaijin who gained acceptance into Rokugan in the early years of the empire. Born of the Yobanjin it was rumoured that he was half Rokugani.

Smithing
He went to the Emperor bearing secret smithing techniques from lands beyond Rokugan, and combined Rokugani techniques with his gaijin skills and crafted truly unique blades.

The Lion Champion
The Lion Clan Champion Akodo Gempachi discovered one of Wnfu's swords, and wanted to know how it had been made. Ignoring Wenfu's gaijin background Gempachi immediately commisioned a blade.

The Tsi family
The Emperor, Hantei Genji was also so impressed with the work of Wenfu that he declared him not a gaijin and allowed him to found the Tsi family.
