Ikoma Chikao

Ikoma Chikao was the captain of the watch at Kyuden Ikoma. When the Khan Moto Chagatai began his winter campaign against the Lion Clan, all of Chikao's superiors left with the army to fight the Unicorn, leaving Chikao as the ranking officer at Kyuden Ikoma. When the Lion Clan Champion Matsu Yoshino and his advisor Ikoma Otemi arrived with more troops, Chikao and the two began planning the defenses of the castle.
