Hitai

Tsi Hitai was a weaponsmith of the ronin Tsi family who left his family as Hitai.

Appearance
Hitai was a giant with a clean-shaven head, who seemed perpetually distracted, intent only upon his work.

Tsi Family
A few weeks after his gempukku he obeyed the Crab officer he served, instead saving the life of his true love. His betrothed died a horrible death, and he never recovered. When he discovered that the lord he served was a dishonorable, corrupt man, he killed him and disappeared in the night.

Ronin
Hitai moved to Ninkatoshi, and run the Souls of Honor, the most prestigious smithy in the city. He was famed throughout the Akodo provinces as a bladesmith. However, his true love had cursed him with her dying breath and one in every ten weapons that Hitai crafted was cursed, bringing pain and suffering to those who bore it.
