Agasha Mumoko
Agasha Mumoko was a shugenja Reibai of the Dragon Clan. [1]
Family[]
Mumoko was born to a minor Vassal family of the Agasha. [2]
Badger Clan[]
In 1117 the Badger Clan sought an alliance with the Dragon, proposing a marriage to seal the bargain. Agasha Tamori increased the status of Mumoko's father and in return he offered his daughter. Mumoko was trained in the Agasha Shugenja school as a part of the agreement. After two years she visited the Domogu province to meet her future husband, Ichiro Hideo. The Badger were resistant to the idea of a shugenja in their family, and Mumoko only met one Badger who felt fascination and love for the magic, Ichiro Koturi, Hideo's brother. [2]
Ichiro Koturi[]
Mumoko tought Koturi about magic, and between them began more than a mutual love for the kami. She decided to leave until the wedding and returned to the Agasha provinces. Koturi followed her and Lord Tamori accepted him as a student in the Agasha Shugenja school. Mumoko requested to be sent on a mission to avoid temptation. [3]
Kaiu family[]
Agasha Mumoko
Mumoko studied with the Kaiu family. [4] For several years she worked as a yoriki of Kaiu Osuki, learning to fight the Shadowlands creatures. When her master planned a visit to Badger lands Mumoko would have a chance to meet Hideo without the presence of Koturi. [5]
Badger's Fate[]
In 1126 it was Osuki who discovered the ravaging of the Badger Clan by a monster. [6] The magistrate found the Badger Clan Champion, Ichiro Chuga, nailed to a post with his legs torn from his body. Hideo appeared jailed in the castle's dungeon with tainted eyes, revealing he had been infected, so Tsukai-sagasu were called to test the samurai. [7]
Oni Strikes Back[]
Three months later Koturi arrived to his ruined home, and shortly after the demon which would be known as Hideo no Oni attacked again, killing many of the Crab guards, fusing the bodies to its corpse. Hideo escaped the battered prison and foolishly attacked the oni, which plucked the samurai from the ground. Koturi goaded Mumoko to use her magic against the demon, even if it meant his brother's death, as he knew he was already doomed. Mumoko relented, the oni spoke, and fled, leaving Hideo alive. [8]
No, not done yet.

A terrible anger echoed in Hideo's tainted eyes, and a strange guilt shone in Koturi's. Mumoko knew that the oni spared the three of them for a reason, and she was the only one who could deal with the oni. [5]
Tracking the Oni[]
Koturi was stricken with guilt and grief, and eventually joined forces with Hideo and Mumoko to hunt down the creature. [10] Hideo was linked to Hideo no Oni, so he could sense where the demon was. The trio began a hunt for the oni who had doomed the Badger. [11]
Aftermath[]
Lord Osuki was killed in final combat with Hideo no Oni in 1128. [12] The two brothers and their beloved Mumoko stood against the demon. Koturi held the beast at bay long enough for Hideo to take his own life, banishing the creature. Koturi then followed suit to cleanse his honor. [13] The fate of Mumoko was unknown.

| Way of the Shadowlands pp. 80-81 incorrectly names her Agasha Momuko. History about Kaiu training, and picture compared to CCG Art match Agasha Mumoko. This is most likely a typo in the name. |
