Tsi Yoritoko

Tsi “Yajuu” Yoritoko was a blacksmith of the Oriole Clan.

Appearance and Demeanor
Yoritoko was a smallish woman, with a lithe athletic body. She was fearless and headstrong, happy to provoke a fight with anyone for any reason. Yoritoko shared a birth name with the great Hida O-Ushi, the Crab Clan Champion who was known for bullying.

Oriole Clan is Born
Her family had been away from Otosan Uchi on a buying trip when the city fell to Daigotsu's legions. She spent the next few years searching without success for some sign of the surviving Tsi. Eventually Tsi Zutaka and other surviving Tsi were rescued, and the Oriole Clan was born.

The Beast
Her fistfights with various cousins, mostly blacksmiths who made the mistake of treating her as hired help, became a scandal in Toshi Ranbo. Yoritoko was sent to escort Tsi caravans from other outlying Oriole territories to the clan's headquarters in the Imperial City. Yoritoko made great sport out of mocking merchants and moneylenders earning her a new nickname, Yajuu, “the Beast”.
