Soshi Tishi

Soshi Tishi was the surprise choice of sensei Bayushi Hisa when the Hisa, on his deathbed named Tishi the heir to the sensei position at the Honor's Lesson Dojo

Youth
Tishi was always amused by the little twists and turns that life always seems to make. Born into a shugenja family Tishi alway felt more comfortable in the ways of the sword, and did not seem concerned with his family's offense to his blasé attitude towards traditons. This began his rapid rise to become one of the most talented bushi the Bayushi school had seen in generations, and the most confident.

Bayushi Hisa
Tishi never once doubted that his prowess could fail him in his pursuit of his duty, and even his sensei's attempts to quell his enormous ego failed. Hisa had set him the task of preparing five unique kata for his gempukku ceremony, and much to Hisa's chargrin and silent pride Tishi performed exceptionally, and the five kata he created became a part of the basic curriculum at the dojo. As impressed with himself as he was, Tishi was still as shocked as the rest of the Scorpion Clan when Hisa, on his deathbed, named Tishi to be his successor.

Sensei
Oddly enough the public acclaim caused Tishi's famous arrogance to subside, and he took his duties as grandmaster very seriously. He attempts to instill the same confidence he had in his students, and he has proven to be a resourceful and worthy sensei. He of course, is not surprised.
