Height: 5'7" (170cm)

Weight: 154lbs (70kg)

Hair/Eyes: Brown

Age: 28 (b1095, s1103, g1111)

Appearance: A samurai of rural or goshi stock, neither particularly short, tall, attractive, or ugly. If not for years of seasonal work outdoors and just as many attending or working at a forge, Tomoki's darkly tanned and lean, muscular body might otherwise pass as stolidly average.

Tomoki doesn't personally pride himself on presentation and tends to dress down to the minimum required of his station. The amigasa he keeps either securely cinched ot tied to his obi is part of this personal ritual, and a way of avoiding notice. It would be more effective were Tomoki not almost indelibly beset by a variety of different scents and heavy odours both common and obscure; herbs, teas, flowers, incense, fish, tree sap, and wood smoke. Some stored by Tomoki by various means, others embedded into his clothing or person.

Vassal: Itagawa, Juhin-Kenzoku forge family

Honour: Honour is the Ideal

Status: Average Great Clan Samurai

Glory: Samurai of No Renown

Reputation: The Itagawa vassal family rarely draw attention to their samurai or the works they produce. Tomoki has acted to alter the family trajectory little in his time, whether during his schooling or in the years of active service to the Lion clan since.

Some may know of the Crab/Lion trade deals that hostaged a number of children from either clan a little over two decades ago. Or of the ongoing blood feud between the Itagawa of the Akodo and Fujihiro of the Daidoji. Possibly even the passing of Tomoki's parents in a related skirmish more than a decade prior.
