Uranaishi no Manami, Ambitious Pirate
Descrição
The Mantis consider Manami one of their best pirates, but she hates her reputation and that of her clan, wishing she could be seen as a legitimate samurai. Torn between three impulses—to live a simple life of fishing and seafaring, to provide for her family and clan with continued raids, and to obtain the recognition and respect of the other clans—Manami leads her crew with a shrewd grumpiness. She chooses a single wealthy target over several smaller, easier ones to avoid as much bloodshed as possible. If she is challenged on a decision, she solves the disciplinary problem with some grappling, and her short, stocky, powerful body quickly proves her physical might. Her successful piracy count demonstrates her significant tactical insight.
When the tsunami hit Crane lands, instead of picking at the corpses and villages like carrion, Manami rescued several survivors. Informing her sailors that the Crane may pay a ransom for their people, she has treated these outsiders well, integrating them at a village near Toshi no Inazuma. This scheme has not paid off and may be an unflattering mark on her record, but her sailors remain loyal and well fed from their work, so they don’t complain.
The Mantis Clan, however, has mixed feelings about this act of mercy, and especially about taking on responsibility for people loyal to the Crane; some doubt her dedication to piracy and to the Mantis.
