Bayushi Sunetra

Sunetra was born in disfavored branch of the Daidoji, but was fostered to the Scorpion Clan when they returned from the Burning Sands as a show of good faith. Sunetra excelled in her training, and when it came time for her gempukku she decided to remain with the Scorpion, becoming Bayushi Sunetra.

Brother
Sunetra's brother, Daidoji Hachi, remained with the Crane. Sunetra was aware he was her brother, but he did not know she was still alive. Hachi would go on to be revealed as the closest living heir to the Yasuki Diamyoship, and later won the Emerald Championship. Hachi died in 1168 without knowing his sister was still alive.

Naseru
During the struggle of the Four Winds, the Scorpion felt it best that they have an agent near to each of the winds to help and show favor. That way regardless of which Wind took the throne, the Scorpion would already have a spy close to the Emperor/Empress. Sunetra found herself assigned to the Anvil, Hantei Naseru. The two were well matched and she quickly fell into a trusted position with the Wind.

The Onisu Unleashed
In 1159 after the dead of Daigotsu's bodyguard, Goju Kyoden, all Onisu were unleashed over Rokugan. In Ryoko Owari Toshi Bayushi Shixiang and Bayushi Kwanchai deliberately disobeyed the order of their commander, Bayushi Katai, and defeated Muchitsujo and [[Fushin. Katai was displeased with their actions, but Bayushi Sunetra stopped her from punishing them with a sharp reprimand and a threat.

The New Champion
Sunetra became the Scorpion Clan Champion in 1159 in a ruse to bring about the destruction of the Shadowed Tower. The Champion at the time, Bayushi Yojiro, realized that he could not fight the Tower from his position. Involving only Shosuro Yudoka, Sunetra and Yogo Koji in the plot, he passed the leadership of the clan to Sunetra. Using Koji's magic they created an illusion around Sunetra, making everyone believe that she was in fact Yojiro. This freed Yojiro and Yudoka to actively pursue the Tower, with immediate results.

Emergance
Following the destruction of the Tower in 1160 there was no longer any need for the ruse, and Sunetra emerged as the true Champion of the Scorpion Clan.

Passing the Leadership
Eventually Sunetra realized that she was better suited to be in the shadows, and she disappeared after an attempt on her life. She gave orders that Bayushi Paneki should claim the clan sword, and took her place as the Underhand working for Emperor Toturi III, formerly Hantei Naseru.

""Why did you choose me, Sunetra?" Paneki asked, "I am no leader." "You will learn to be one," she said. "You are intelligent, ruthless, beautiful, and patient. You are all that the Scorpion need. You will make them deadlier than they ever have been.""

The Gozoku
Her first assignment upon formally taking the position of Underhand was to locate and exterminate the Gozoku's leadership, particularly Bayushi Kamnan and Bayushi Atsuki. With the help of her newfound allies in the Mantis and Yoritomo Naizen, Kamnan was killed and replaced by Bayushi Baku.

Sunetra later tracked down Atsuki as he fled the assault on his Ashalan allies by the Shogun Kaneka, ensuring Atsuki's misery by binding him to a tree stump and killing him using a dagger taken from Traitor's Grove.

Favor to the Crane
In 1170, Sunetra gave information about Daigotsu Rekai to the Crane Clan, in the hopes that they would eliminate Rekai and the threat she poses to the Empire.

Death
Under orders from Shosuro Jimen, Sunetra tracked down and killed Kakita Mai, the wife of Kakita Daimyo Kakita Noritoshi. With the aid of Kitsuki Mayako Noritoshi lured Sunetra into a trap and killed her.
