Revision as of 04:41, 7 February 2006
The Daidoji Harriers are a highly secretive, small group of elite warriors of the Crane Clan. Families outside of the Crane are only vaguely aware of the Harriers' existence, and even few within the Crane know exactly what they do.
The Harriers mainly serve as scouts, saboteurs, and surveillance experts and are expected to be able negate the advantage of fifty or more enemy soldiers. Although some describe them as "the ninja of the Crane", that description is not entirely accurate. While it is true that the Harriers resort to many dishonorable tactics, including the use of ambushes, traps, and even explosives, the Harriers are not assassins. Their techniques are utilized only in battle, and they do not target innocents or bystanders. That said, an armed and armored enemy is fair game to a Harrier, even if the enemy doesn't see the attack coming. The Harriers willingly sacrifice their honor and their lives in order to protect the Crane.
Arguably, the most famous Harrier is Daidoji Uji, former daimyo of the Daidoji family. As with many of the Daidoji and their Harriers, the full import of what Uji has done to protect and preserve the Crane will never be known. So it is with the Daidoji Harriers.
