Mirumoto Hojatsu (I)

Mirumoto Hojatsu was a student of the Victory of the Living Blade Dojo, who performed his gempukku so breathtakingly that when he chose to take the name of a legend there were few that would willingly argue with him. He does seem to carry the very soul of the son of Mirumoto, and has yet to loose a duel or a skirmish. In social situations Hojatsu does not speak, as he prefers to defer to the wisdom of elders, but in combat he unleashes a fury that could make an ogre stare in amazement. During the Dragon-Phoenix War not a single Mirumoto was feared more, and even the Lion hesitated to engage the Dragon troops when he was around. With him around the Dragon suffered fewer casualities, as his leadership was an inspiration to those around him. After all, what would they have to fear with the reincarnation of Mirumoto's son fighting beside them? (Samurai p. 36)
