Asahina Sekawa

Asahina Sekawa is the Jade Champion, as well as the daimyo of the Asahina family.

Has a reputation of being a morose and bitter man, obsessed with the deaths of his sister Kimita and his uncle during the Test of the Jade Champion years ago. A scar across his cheek is a constant reminder of that day.

Lord Sekawa completed Rosoku's challenge by finding the Book of Five Rings.

He therefore bears the title of Keeper of the Five Rings, the true heir to Shinsei's wisdom. Enlightenment, however, did not seem to change his brusque attitude in court.
