Hojo Akira (北条 明), is the disowned Souzokujin (相続人), or heir of the Hojo Clan.
Akira is currently wandering the lands of Dargarth looking to reclaim his lost honour and title -- something that he believes was wrongfully done.
Early Life
Akira does not divulge much about his childhood, other than that he was born to Hojo Moritoki and Hojo Chiyo in a faraway land. That he was raised in relative comfort, having multiple servants and retainers at his side throughout most of his life; and that he was trained by a man he calls Yoshitsune-sensei.
Fighting Style
Akira practices a style known to his people as Tenshin Shōden Katori Shintō-ryū (天真正伝香取神道流),
as a result, where many warriors of his people might learn to wield a single weapon, or two weapons, Akira is proficient in the use of many
types of weapons. He has been trained in the use of Tachijutsu (太刀術/Sword arts), Bojutsu (棒術/ Staff arts), Naginatajutsu (薙刀術/Naginata arts),
and in the use of the daikyu (大弓/Longbow), and Hankyu (半弓/ Shortbow, lit. Half bow).
He prefers to use a single sword (太刀 tachi) when fighting (ittsu no ken youshiki いっつの剣様式).
