Descrição
Some call them Deathseekers because these samurai appear to charge headlong toward their deaths, heedless of any danger. Others believe that the mantle of Deathseeker is a punishment for those who have failed their lords. On the contrary, the Deathseeker tradition is a type of warrior’s pilgrimage undertaken voluntarily by Lion Clan samurai who have suffered failure or disgrace and who wish to redeem themselves through action. Those who walk this path of atonement take on the burden of greatest risk so that other samurai might be spared, but they try to survive as long as possible to continue serving their clans.
The Deathseeker tradition is controversial even within the Lion Clan, and not all lords will allow their samurai to take Kirifu’s oath, as it is called. Those who do become Deathseekers forsake their previous station and relinquish their titles and belongings, including daishō. They paint their faces ghostly white to inspire fear in their enemies.
