Isawa Yoshiko, Cunning Phoenix Shugenja

Tipo ADVERSARYGrau de conflito Combat conflict rank 3 Intrigue conflict rank 7
SotB p. 22

Descrição

Yoshiko is a reserved yet clever shugenja who is always looking to stay one step ahead of any competitors. She chooses to rely on her knowledge of clan politics and law to sway the decision toward the Phoenix, though she willingly offers the PCs help if given the opportunity, so long as she believes it might work in the Phoenix’s favor.

Delegated as the Phoenix representative to adopt Masayo, Yoshiko is struggling to keep an embarrassing secret hidden. Yoshiko was born out of wedlock, and the shame of her parents resulted in her being given to the Isawa to avoid the political backlash of her father and mother’s inappropriate relationship. Yoshiko knows who her parents were, a fact she overheard at a young age from her caretakers. It was not until shortly before the memorial service that she heard her mother’s name again when speaking of Shiba Miku, Masayo’s mother. Yoshiko realized that Miku must be her half sister, and Masayo is her niece by blood. Such a familial bond could have a dramatic effect on the proceedings, either embarrassing and disqualifying Yoshiko from the adoption because she has no proof, or by strengthening the Phoenix’s claim on the child.
