NAME: Shosuro Miyuki
CLAN: Scorpion
SCHOOL: Soshi Shugenja
RANK: 1
Age: 20 Sex: Female Height: 5'0"
Description: Petite and demure, Miyuki has pale skin and long black hair, tied back in an elaborate braid. Her mask consists of an intricately woven metal chain, threaded through her hair and left to dangle, barely covering her face at all, the very slightest of rouge brushed across to accentuate her cheekbones. She wears a simple red kimono edged in concentric black circles, and holds a paper fan in one delicate hand, the other always at rest upon her hip. Surveying her environment with a slightly detached air, a wry smile and with the habit of holding a gaze for a moment too long, she ensures she is remembered whenever she meets someone new.
The Kami's Whisper - The Soshi cast their spells as quietly as the kami themselves. You may sacrifice an additional spell slot (of the same Element) when casting any spell with no potential to inflict damage in order to eliminate all visible signs of the spell having been cast. All spell effects take place normally; there is simply no outward sign of what has happened. You also gain a Free Raise on any spell with the Illusion keyword.
SPELLS (Affinity / Deficiency: Air / Earth)

Raised in the bosom of the Shosuro family, trained by the Soshi and seasoned at the court of Kyuden Bayushi, Miyuki is everything a samurai-ko should be; attentive, polite, knowledgeable and engaging. Were it not for the vagaries of fate, she would have enjoyed a fulfilling role as a courtier for her clan. The fortunes had different plans however and Miyuki's gift to talk to the kami, alongside her own natural talent for intrigue, has caused her clan to thrust her in to the affairs of the Empire as quickly as possible.
Miyuki enjoys the challenge of fulfilling many different roles in service to her clan, but despite this she is keen to see more of the world outside of Scorpion lands. She finds the varied attitudes of the other clans almost intoxicating, not to mention how incomprehensibly strictly they adhere to the different tenets of bushido, and is eager to learn as much as she can whenever she sees the opportunity. Whilst completely loyal to her clan, she sees no harm in manipulating events to more suit her personally as long as it doesn't interfere with anything she's been asked to do. She also understands she's yet young, and there is much to learn.
