Isawa Hossan

Isawa Hossan was a Phoenix shugenja who was one of the first humans to develop a theory called Meisho (name magic). Hossan had believed that the soul every living creature resided in their names, and by learning the true name of every creature one could gain an understanding of the universe to rival that of Shinsei. Hossan's efforts ammounted to little in the end, but where continued by the Agasha Shugenja when the Agasha compared his theories with the secret works of Agasha. They slowly began solving Hossan's theory, and although they began to show progress on the theories, they have yet to solve it fully.
