Backstory:

Tenchi is Ameiko's younger brother, and unlike Ameiko Tenchi has heavily bought into his Tianese heritage. Emboldened by the stories his mother told of Samurai, battles, dragons, and honor, and undertook the path of the samurai. His mother used her connections to have him apprenticed to a samurai to teach him what he would need to know.
Tenchi was gone from Sandpoint during the events of previous APs, and has just recently returned, itching to prove his blade gainst multiple foes, Tenchi opted to become an adventurer, against the advice of his older sister. She wouldn't understand the desire, however, to prove his blade against challenging foes.

Advancement:

So Tenchi is going to stay straight Samurai until the game ends. He doesn't really have any feats that are "must haves", but I will aim to take Cut from the air and Smash from the Air, along with Combat Reflexes, cause the idea of chopping up a boulder as it's flying towards you is very anime.
Finally, with the Warrior Poet archetype, Spring Attack and the Vital Strike chain are basically built into the class, so I'll probably be picking those feats up as well.

My feat progression will probably look something like this:

3: Combat Reflexes
5: Martial Focus (Katana)
6Bonus: Spring Attack
7: Cut from the Air
9: Smash from the Air
11: Improved Vital Strike
11Bonus: Vital Strike
12Bonus: Improved Spring Attack
13: Devastating Strike
15: Soulwrecking Strike
17: Greater Vital Strike
18b: Greater Spring Attack

Gear I'm going to work towards:
+5 Ring of Resistance
+5 Ring of Protection
Bracers of Armor +8
+6 Headband of Charisma
+6 Belt of Physical Perfection
champion's banner
+5 Valiant, Ghost Touch, Speed Adamantine Katana
Boots of Striding and Springing
Necklace of Adaptation
dex and cha stat books

Misc. knick knacks.
