Shosuro Hyobu

Shosuro Hyobu was the governor of Ryoko Owari during the ruling of the Emperor Hantei XXXVIII.

Governor
Hyobu was appointed as governor of Ryoko Owari, and she wished that things not be “too corrupt” for the city, keeping the opium trade hidden, but she expended no effort eradicating it. The order in the city was maintained, by overlooking minor excesses of the kajinin, the corrupted firemen, supposedly keepers of the law in the city streets.

Interests
Hyobu worked on forging ties with the Ide family, and also to lower the Imperial Taxes.

Family
Hyobu was widowed, had a son, Sosuro Jocho, and a daughter, Shosuro Kimi. It was said that Hyobu's lover was her own brother in law, Shosuro Gobei.

Demeanor
Hyobu was a powerful, respected and feared skilled governor. She was an intelligent woman who loved her children, her clan and more than that, she loved Ryoko Owari. She liked her city just the way it was, with dissent and disorder. She usually did not use violence, but the times Hyobu used it was brutal and extreme, destroying those who are not on her side.
