Echimei

Echimei was a minor noble of the Scorpion Clan who became ronin and a bandit-Lord. He formed the first organized criminal gang in Rokugan.

Ambition
In the year 110 the Boar Clan was formed, the third Minor Clan. Echimei made it his ambition to found a clan of his own. Taking dozens of Scorpion samurai with him, he ventured south near the eastern tip of the Shinomen Mori and began gathering followers.

Bandit Lord
Echimei was a honorless man and the group quickly turned towards illegal activities in order to survive. After decades of assaulting merchants, stealing from peasant villages, and raiding encampments of other samurai, the aging lord began to doubt his actions. The gang was disbanded upon his death.
