Tokugawa Katsumoto Person12
Personality: Eyes green like the grass in spring look past the horizon onto the Sun, eminating from them is the past of many battles...

A natural born leader who was called the Raging Tiger by his own men after going into battle outnumbered under his Daimyo's commands and standing fast and breaking out while being surrounded with odds that amounted three to one. Fine odds for any Samurai. The victory that Katsumoto won for his Daimyo got him the priviledge of becoming a part of the clan and being given the rank of Samurai and a part as a General in his Daimyo's army.

Cautious, yet a wild card when need be, no enemy or friend has ever understood this mans mind until either it was too late for his enemies or after the battle for his friends. Katsumoto has been known to be like a tiger to his enemies, striking hard when in battle but even harder when fighting a worthy foe and being outnumbered. Many a battle has been won by so few.

Less known is Katsumoto's personal life, those who are close would know that Katsumoto is a joker to his friends and colleagues and a big teddy bear to the children of his Daimyo's lands. Even lesser known is the fact that Katsumoto has two children and a Wife who he loves and adores with all his heart. Katsumoto rarely speaks of them to protect them.
Likes: Katsumoto likes cherry blossums, he doesn't know why but the way it looks and how the leaves flow when the wind glides through brings him peace. Katsumoto also likes the thrill of the battlefield and the look on the eyes of his enemies. Katsumoto also loves good food and the company of friends.
Dislikes: Katsumoto dislikes cowards, traitors, thieves, and those who harm the innocent.
Motivation: The thing that motivates Katsumoto the most is the fight for truth and justice. Once his clan was obliterated Katsumoto has been trying to save others from that fate and is trying to avenge his Daimyo for the Bushido Code demands it. It is his since of honor that keeps him going for it.
Fears: Katsumoto is afraid of the end of the Bushido Code. Without it his life would be meaningless, the life of his Daimyo would be meaningless, and the lives of those lost in his Daimyo's service and his service would be meaningless.

Tokugawa Katsumoto Histor10
History: A Long Time Ago:
In order to get into the history of Katsumoto, one must first look at the history of the Tokugawa Clan. The Tokugawa Dynasty was first started five hundred years ago when farmers led by the rebel leader Tokugawa Ishida started a rebellion against their tyrannical ruler the Khan of the Steppes. Many a brave soul died fighting against the mobile armies of the Khanate. Finally in winter the Rebel Army made its way to the Khan's Castle. Tired of being ruled by foreigners the Rebels stormed the gates, climbed over the walls, and brought fury down upon their enemies. Ishida then fought the Khan in the throne room and after a battle that blew a whole level off of the castle Ishida walked out with the Khans head on a pike. The Rebellion was over, The Tokugawa Dynasty followed.

The Daimyo:
Katsumoto's Daimyo Tokugawa Kambei was a very caring man, one who cared for his people and for their well being. Kambei was also a very strong leader and wasn't a pushover. When the Great Samurai Wars began Katsumoto attempted to keep a stance of neutrality, trying hard to keep his people from losing Husbands, Brothers, and Fathers. Sadly this wasn't to be and his diplomats were killed by a war hungry Lord from the north across the seas, only one managed to come back with a message. It was a lovely basket filled with the heads of all of his diplomats. Weeks later it was discovered that the armies of this Lord had invaded. It was during this initial contact that Tokugawa gave command of a band of Militia and some Samurai to a farmer named Kurosaki Katsumoto. Katsumoto with his band of misfits and Samurai were to hold a temple that had to be refitted into a fort of sorts. It was here that one hundred and eighty men fought against an army estimated to be six hundred men. Katsumoto and his men held of the enemy for thirteen days, during which the Daimyo had assembled his army. On the thirteenth day Katsumoto and his men sallied forth and tore the enemy army to shreds fighting like cornered tigers which gave them the nickname "The Crouching Tigers". For his victory Katsumoto was adopted into the Tokugawa Clan and was brought into the class of Samurai and was named Taishou.

Ascendency to Shogun:
Many battles happened after Katsumoto's heroic victory in Karakura, many of them happening on the great plains and in the forests. Thanks to the victory in Karakura, Katsumoto's Daimyo Kambei raised an army and went out to face the Lord from the North. Battle after battle Kambei's armies suffered defeat after defeat, finally Kambei needing more generals called Katsumoto to try to turn the tide. Katsumoto took command of the Crouching Tigers and a small army of five hundred men and headed northeast towards the Northern Lords camp. Once five miles away Katsumoto set up camp and planned his strategy. The army would march southeast and block the Northern Lords escape from the swamp and Katsumoto and his Crouching Tigers would sneak in under cover of darkness and while the Lords men were fast asleep they would strike. Once the plan was in effect Katsumoto's Crouching Tigers charged the camp yelling their battle cry "BANZAI!!!". The enemy was surprised completely and attempted to hold off the attackers but couldn't hold out, they then attempted to retreat to the southeast but Katsumoto's small army was there to meet them and ambush them leading to a massive slaughter. It was there that Katsumoto took the Lord of the Norths head and placed it in the pass where every army would have to go through marching from land into his country. For his bravery and for winning the war against the invaders Kambei gave Katsumoto the rank of Shogun, the first ever in the country and second only to Kambei himself.

The fall of the Tokugawa Dynasty:
Years went on by and there was peace. Sadly this peace was not to continue. Katsumoto away on a campaign for Kambei wasn't there to protect his Daimyo when some Ninja disguised as garden tenders got entrance into the palace and murdered Kambei and the entire royal family. Once Katsumoto got the news Katsumoto rushed to the capitol but not before every country surrounding the country of Edo attacked. Katsumoto had to order the armies to defend their country and fight for their lives since in order to fight the threats they'd have to spread out. Shogun Katsumoto sent diplomats to any and all friendly or neutral provinces and kingdoms to ask for aid. Sadly that help never came nor was there even a reply. Katsumoto's forces were wiped off the map. In anger Katsumoto called on the Crouching Tigers and attempted to get to the coastal town where all of these mens families lived. There Katsumoto and the Crouching Tigers held off the invaders while their families could get on boats and escape. Only then did Katsumoto and his men retreat onto boats themselves and escaped. That day Katsumoto and his men vowed to return one day once they could assemble an army and take back their lands. From there Katsumoto and his men separated, spreading over into any province they could, staying hidden and/or wandering till they could strike again.

RP Sample: Katsumoto was well inside the city past the docks when he separated from his family and his men. Here Katsumoto was trying to lose whoever might be following him. Katsumoto turned into an alleyway sensing that someone was watching him closely. The alley way was dark, trashy, and filled with puddles. It was when Katsumoto looked up that someone jumped down in front of him. "Hey you, what do you have in that bag?" Katsumoto looked at the bag, then to the man in front of him and said "Well, it's none of your business flea bag." It was at this moment that the young man in front of him took out a dagger and stated out loud "I'm making it my business!." Katsumoto with his sword hidden inside his robes looked down and put his right hand under the robe. "Don't try it." The young man stepped forward and struck downward with his dagger with the full intent to maim then looked in shock as the middle of his dagger separated from the hilt. Looking closely the man saw Katsumoto had drew his Katana, sliced it horizontally, then sheathed it. A split second later the boy looked down and saw the cut across his chest. It wasn't deep but it was extremely painful and the young man clutched his chest and thought he was about to die. Katsumoto then played on this young mans fear, kicked him into a puddle and said "Next time you won't be so lucky." Katsumoto would have killed the man if he hadn't seen so much bloodshed earlier that week. It was then then Katsumoto walked out onto the street and towards the palace.
