A Good Little Wife
In 1129, in the month of the Tiger, Shinjo Yasamura was married in a rather hasty ceremony to Hida O-Ushi. To win the hand of the tomboy, a tetsubo-only contest was arranged by Yakamo. O-Ushi entered to win her own hand but, during the fight, Daidoji Uji and O-Ushi knocked each other out and Yasamura was declared the winner. The two were married before O-Ushi regained consciousness.

Tsuru's Legion
Yasamura commanded the Crab Clan's cavalry division known as Tsuru's Legion, which would pursue Shadowlands forces that made it past the Carpenter Wall. He took over leadership of the unit from it's former leader and founder, Hida Tsuru himself.

War against the Shadow
During the Battle of Oblivion's Gate, O-Ushi was injured by an Oni attack, and her life was saved by Yasamura.

Death
Yasamura died during the War of Spirits. He led a unit of Crab cavalry against his own kinsmen near Ryoko Owari, but was shot in the throat and killed.
