Toritaka Tsimari

Toritaka Tsimari was a Falcon Clan samurai. During his reign as Falcon Clan daimyo a group of Naga emerged from the Shinomen Forest into a Falcon village. The villagers believed they were under attack by the Shadowlands and fled the area.

The Falcon attempted to get assistance from the Crab Clan, but the Crab were insulted when a rookie Falcon courtier described the Naga as "escapees" from the Shadowlands. The Crab instead conquered the village and brought in their own heimin to work the fields. To reclaim the village, Tsimari bargained with Iuchi family daimyo Iuchi Daiyu to wage war against the Crab Clan.
