Shinjo Juro

Shinjo Juro was the son of Shinjo Rojin and a geisha. When Rojin heard about his son he immediately acknowledged him, and began taking the boy along on his adventures. After Rojin disappeared during an expedition to the Burning Sands Juro took command of Rojin's Wanderers. Juro is a fat, jolly man who is at home in the wilderness, but prefers the comforts of court life. He enjoys maintaining his fathers estates in Kibukito, where he organizes the missions of the group. Juro looks forward with excitement to each report when his scouts return. (Samurai pp. 72)
