Re: NPC Descriptions
Name: Bayushi Minae
Gender: Female
Clan: Scorpion
Profession: Duelist
Marital Status: Single
At a glance: As beautiful as she is clever
Miai Status: Candidate
Description: Bayushi Minae's beauty is only enhanced by the red silk half-mask covering half her face. When the plot at the Topaz Championship was uncovered, she was swift to come forth with testimony proving that the Scorpion involved was working without the blessing or knowledge of his clan. Still, few are naive enough to believe that such testimony was strictly for justice, nor has she completely cleared aside the suspicion of her having foreknowledge of the plot.
Goal: Marry Hiroto of the Golden Mirror to Kakita Reina

Miai Status: Candidate
Description: Yasuki Jin was struck by his father's curse at an unfortunately early age: male pattern baldness. Still, while his hairline may be receding, he is always the first to offer a toast, or a crude joke at any social gathering, as the situation warrants. His real passion, however, is sake.

Profession: Tea House Proprietress
Marital Status: Widow
At a glance: Little old white haired lady
Miai Status: Tea Master
Description: The small, white haired old proprietress of the Blushing Maiden tea house still moves with a spring in her step. She takes excellent care of her customers, though truth be told, she does enjoy trying to draw out blushes from the more proper samurai when she says things like saying it looks like they could use a mouthful of Yuri, or are in need of the kind of heat that only Akina can provide. Of course, she innocently claims that she is merely referring to the names of the house’s teas.

Miai Status: Merchant of fine gifts
Description: Among the small handful of merchants that ply their trade in Kyuden Shika, Goto has the most hustle. His primary stock in trade is customized go boards. His best seller are the engraved go pieces. Some people have the names of their loved ones etched into the pieces, while those seeking a coy romance have secret words etched on the underside of the pieces to pass along to their "opponent".

Miai Status: Bartender
Description: The local sake bar is run by a man named Ueno, who is quite well known for his knowledge of sake and the quiet yet dignified manner in which he serves it.

Re: NPC Descriptions
Name: Mirumoto Namika
Gender: Female
Clan: Dragon
Profession: Emerald Yoriki
Marital Status: Widowed
At a glance: The cold steel fist within Oharu's silk glove
Miai Status: Non-participant, Emerald Yoriki
Mirumoto Namika has never been described as a kind samurai. Dutiful, skilled, honorable, focused, sure, but never particularly kind. There was one person in the empire who would have described her as kind, had anyone coaxed it out of him: her husband Mirumoto Shusake. A small bookish bureaucrat of some relative importance in Shiro Mirumoto. Neither of them were particularly talkative in public, and yet when they sat alone in private, one could have sensed the pair were in quiet harmony.
But such moments are a thing of the past. Her husband became thoroughly embroiled in accusations of embezzlement and child trafficking. The scandal was so great, she was nearly enfolded in it as well. After all, as his wife, surely she must have known of, and turned a blind eye to his wrong doing. Her boss, Doji Oharu, was able to pull some strings and have the charges against her dropped. But her husband had no such savior, and was hanged as a common criminal.
She swore on that day that those who had led to her husband's downfall would never know peace or happiness again. One such culprit is at Kyuden Shika participating in a miai. The thought of their unearned happiness fills her with rage, and fuels her determination to deny them everything.

Name: Ide Tomeo
Gender: Male
Clan: Unicorn
Profession: Clan magistrate
Marital Status: Single
At a glance: Fashion model/magistrate
Miai Status: Candidate
Ide Tomeo would not be out of place in the courts of the Crane or the Scorpion, though his purple kimono marks him quite clearly as a member of the nomadic Unicorn. He has an easy smile which he uses only when the situation that calls for it, a rather nice goatee he strokes when deep in thought, a deep, pleasant voice, and the position of clan magistrate for the Unicorn.
