Ryhodotsu

Eldest son of the Koedi Family. They were vassles to the Crab Clan. They served the Hida with loyalty and honor for centuries. Kaiu Kenru recommended to Hida Kisada that they be given minor clan status. Ryhodotsu would have been made daimyo of this new clan.

One day Ryhodotsu returned from tendering taxes to the Crab when he found that the villages of Koebi and his castle were gone. A monsoon had wiped them all out. With anger, bitterness and despair Ryhodotsu now wonders Rokugan seeking a purpose. He carries the ancestral nemuranai jitte which would have been his inheritance. (Wolf p34)
