Shosuro Gobei

Shosuro Gobei was brother to the governor of Ryoko Owari Toshi, Shosuro Akitada, and good friend of his widow, Shosuro Hyobu, who regented the city after the death of Akitada.

Suspicious
The citizens of Ryoko Owari believed Gobei was a secretive mastermind. He was only a honest businessman, without any hidden activities, kolat, ninja, or even any kind of smugglery connections.

Sexual Behaviour
He was also considered lover of his friend Hyobu. The truth was Gobei had no wife because he was homosexual, a secret he was careful to keep, not so much out of shame, but because he did enjoy having one secret at least.
