Iuchi Daiyu

Iuchi Daiyu was the daimyo of the Iuchi family in the time leading up to the Scorpion Clan Coup and through the Clan Wars, into the reign of Toturi I until he died of an illness. He was known for combining the common shugenja magics with that of gaijin magics, most notably meishodo. He also had an 'inner gift' for being able to understand the language of animals.

It was Daiyu who sent Iuchi Karasu to win the tournament of the Jade Champion, concerned at the rise of Bloodspeaker activity after the Second Day of Thunder. Ironically, his own daughter Iuchi Shahai would grow to become one of the greatest of the Bloodspeakers.

Daiyu was one of the members of the Legion of the Dead.
