Hida Nanako

Hida Nanako was a bushi of the Crab Clan. Like many taisa, Nanako gained her position as commander of the First Garrison of the Watchtower of the Emerald Dawn through family status, rather than battlefield proficiency. Her mother, who was renowned as one of the finest tower commanders in history, arranged for her appointment. Nanako was a powerful fighter and as strong as any Crab, although she lacked experience in leading troops. She made many mistakes since taking command, but few had been serious.
