Matsu Takuya was a bushi and a tactician of the Lion Clan.
Kitsu Tombs[]
Takuya was stationed at the Kitsu Tombs. In 1166 he found the Kitsu Juri's body in one of the deepest Tombs. The cells were empty. [1]
Lion Champion's Advisor[]
Takuya was an experienced warrior that became and advisor of the Lion Clan Champion Ikoma Otemi. [2]
The Wanderer[]
In 1168 the Kitsu Daimyo and Lion representative at the Court, Kitsu Katsuko, sent words to Otemi that the Emperor Toturi III was not in seclusion as they had been lead to believe. He had spent the past few months traveling the Empire as a disguised wanderer in search of enlightenment and lately entered the Shadowlands. The Emerald Champion Yasuki Hachi had requested all clans send a small force of warriors at Crab lands to join him in finding and protecting the Emperor. Otemi sent the young and untested Beastmaster Matsu Benika at the command of their fleetest unit, the Lion Wardens. Takuya would hold command until the border to the Shadowlands was crossed. After that point, Benika would make decisions regarding battle and tactics, best suited to an adaptable commander not bound by the conventions of traditional tactics as Benika. [2]
To defend the Emperor[]
In the Battle of the Tomb Takuya held the line against the oni horder that attacked the Tomb of the Seven Thunders. Benika entered the Tomb to find the Emperor, and the Benika's Pride were alongside Takuya in the battlefield. [3]
Death[]
Takuya did not survive the battle. [4]
