Kitsune Kyosuki

Kitsune Kyosuki was a shugenja of the Mantis Clan.

Toshi Ranbo
Kyosuki was born in the Imperial City of Toshi Ranbo, and his art with sculpture made him a very minor celebrity in the Empire, particularly in the city where he had spent much of his life. Unfortunately, his clan arranged a betrothal with the daughter of a minor branch of the Otomo family, a woman with an insensitive boor, obsessed with gossip and the manipulation of others in court.

Colonies
Kyosuki fled to the Colonies, under the pretense of exploring new techniques for his art, simply to avoid her. There he was recruited to form a group of samurai who investigated on behalf of Otomo Haruko the odd behavior of Doji Nikaitsu. Their investigation put them under the trail a powerful ashalan, the Crystal Wind, who had been attempting to extend his mental control over the Second City. The group managed to fight those men the Ashalan had enthralled with his sigils, and the creature was dead, pierced by one of its own strange weapons.
