Shosuro Eiriasu

Shosuro Eiriasu was a Shosuro Actor serving the Scorpion Clan. He had served the Scorpion in a long term mission as Kakita Bikan, a blind musician of the Crane Clan.

Bikan
Eiriasu was specifically trained for a long term mission infiltrating the Crane. He started by making small performances while studying everything he could of the Kakita Artisan School to maintain accuracy. The 'blind' persona granted him the ability to learn more secrets as that those around him dismissed his presence, speaking when they would not in front of a 'whole person.'

This led to his being invited to be a minor part of the Crane delegation to the Imperial Winter Court of 1169. In this position, he was able to pass so many Crane secrets that the Scorpion nearly tipped their hand and had to take extra care to not reveal their valuable asset.

Another result of this court was an attempt to improve Crab – Crane relations through marriage. 'Bikan' was betrothed to the new Ruby Champion, Yasuki Miliko. This would have great benefits to the Scorpion, but resumption of the Yasuki conflict had delayed things.
