Shinjo Gaemon

Shinjo Gaemon was the Unicorn Clan Champion near the beginning or the early 12th century.

Lion - Unicorn War
The Emperor ordered Gaemon to make peace with the Lion and declared that the Ikoma Daimyo Ikoma Anakazu and his family should live among the Unicorn Clan to learn their ways of living, and to share with them the customs of the Lion Clan.

Tsanuri
During his stay with the Unicorn, Anakazu's three-years old daughter went missing. Because of his pride, Anakazu would not allow the Unicorn to mount a search until the next morning when his host confronted him with the Honor that would be lost if somehting had happened to the Lion child in Unicorn lands. The child was missing for one night, and the next day Anakazu's wife, frightened, disappointedher husband when she begged Gaemon for aid. The Unicorn found the child standing upon a tsanuri, where she had been, unmoving, since the previous night to avoid the snake any chance to bite her. The name of the viper was tsanuri, 'patient death', a proper name to a Lion samurai-ko, Ikoma Tsanuri.
