A Hyakuhei
Hyakuhei were samurai that fell victim to the evil taint of the Shadowlands, but unlike most of the relatively mindless undead creatures of the Shadowlands, they kept their intelligence. These creatures were capable of tactical sophistication and were driven by a purpose not understandable by anyone outside the Shadowlands. [1]
Appearance[]
To an untrained eye, Hyakuhei appeared to be simple shambling undead, often bearing signs of decay and disease. Their flesh, what little they might have, remained firmer than that of zombies. They often mimicked the slow, mindless behavior of zombies to deceive their foes, but when they wished they could move with surprising speed and agility. Their eye sockets were often empty, but burned with a sickly green flame that enhanced their terrifying appearance. [1]
The Horde of Fu Leng[]
Hyakuhei, which translates to all evil, [2] were referred to as the Horde of Fu Leng by Rokugani, and some shugenja theorized that they were blessed with the blood of Fu Leng himself. [1]
Followers of Daigotsu[]
Daigotsu Koshiro, a Hyakuhei
Even after the death of Fu Leng on the Second Day of Thunder in 1128, the Hyakuhei continued appearing, and would follow any leader who obviously bore the favor of Fu Leng. When Daigotsu appeared in the Shadowlands, the Hyakuhei swore allegiance to him, taking the Daigotsu family name, and Daigotsu also created more of these creatures by anointing several zombies with his own blood.
