Doji Harashige

Doji Harashige was a courtier of the Crane Clan.

Demeanor
Harashige was born into a wealthy and influential family with many Imperial ties. He spent his life in and around Imperial courts, acquiring a taste for the finer things, the very example of a foppish Crane. Harashige maintained a cheery smile and made light jokes at every opportunity. Not a single detail went unnoticed or unaccounted for.

Minister of the Center
In the Ivory Court at the Second City Harashige took advantage of an Imperial who had been received only minimal care from the Ministry of the Center. He cared for the man's comfort and occupied him with pleasant talk while he waited for the Imperial Governor of the Colonies to grant him an audience. After the Imperial left the court, Otomo Suikihime appointed Harashige as Courtesy Ministry, following the advise of the pleased Imperial.

Assistants
Harashige delegated those tasks he had little understanding or experienceto, and relied on the assistance of the Minister of Rites, Seppun Ishitata, and the Minister of Ceremonies, Isawa Chisaki.
