Hattori, ausgestoßener Samurai auf Choto

"Hattori grew up serving as a farmer in the Matsumoro Shogunate. Storms where common on their island but one came that was especially violent. The people of the villages dotting the island hid inside their homes hoping to wait out the storm. Hattori unfortunately had been returning from the city after having sold their cattle and was caught up in the tempest. As he rushed home fighting through the wind and rain, a loud boom sounded as the surrounding area was illuminated by a flash bright light. Hattori turned to hear snarling as streaks of blue light arched to the ground from the clouds above revealing the form of a dozen wolf like Raiju. They Raiju rushed past him towards the village, looking to find unsuspecting victims to prey upon. Despite Hattori's youth, he raced after them determined to prevent the slaughter that would take place. Using a pitch fork Hattori fought off the Raiju till villagers were alerted to his shouting. Eventually Hattori and other men of the village where able to drive them off. News of his deed spread through out the Shogunate eventually reaching the shogun himself. He was offered a position as a samurai for the Shogun but declined stating that he was needed more on the farm. His refusal was not taken lightly and several weeks later Hattori returned home from working in the fields to find his family murdered. The killers however had not left and sought to end him as well. Hattori fled and after boarding the first ship he could find, ended up at a Lodge of the Dragon Trappers. They took him in and trained him in the ways of the sword and eventually Hattori became one of the most skilled trappers on in the lodge. One day word reached the lodge that the Shogun of his home island had been killed by an unknown assassin. The culprit was never caught but Hattori's crew all know who was responsible.   Choto is riding foul bred from the finest stock of the Vyaahgr Dynasty. Hattori received Choto as a gift from the Vyaahgr King after leading a crew to deal with a dangerous Earth Dragon that had been destroying farmlands. Choto might not be as strong as a horse but he is much faster and aggressive. Hattori relies on Choto to not be spooked in the heat of battle and he has not failed him yet."
