Name: Yamada Toshi
Faction: Amakusa
Ethnicity: Japanese
Age: 34
Gender: Male
Height: 6'4''
Weight: 225 lbs
Eye Color: Brown
Hair Color: Brown
Appearance:
Toshi is quite a tall man, especially by Japanese standards. On top of being so monstrously tall, Toshi is also incredibly well-built, boasting a physique unparalleled by any warrior in the country. Every muscle on his body is incredibly defined, making apparent the extensive training he took part in for the majority of his life. There is an incredible amount of scars all across his body from fights he's been in, the most notable being an almost "X" shape formed on his back, from an injury he suffered in his childhood.
Personality: Toshi is a kind man when it comes to those he's close to, namely Takehiro and the men and women from his old gang. They are his family, and he'd do anything for them, valuing their lives above his own. He'll make it a point to protect them no matter the cost, even willing to risk his life should it come to that (though it never has, considering the man is a beast). Around those he cares about, he can always be seen as a happy man, constantly laughing and telling jokes, and never afraid to talk to people he's never met.
Two of the biggest things with Toshi are honor and respect. Respect yourself, respect your friends and family, respect the people you do not know, be they above you or below you in rank. Take pride in your home, where you come from, and where you are now. If you show any sort of disrespect to him, his home, or his family, that's when you get on his bad side.
Despite having been a bandit chief, Toshi is surprisingly kind when it comes to combat situations. He is, undoubtedly, ruthless as he should be, though he treats his opponents with far more respect than they would treat him. It is simply a rule he lives by.
After having been taken in by Takehiro and the people of Totomi, the old gang of bandits has taken it upon themselves to reform their lives for the good of those who welcomed them. They all had a second chance at life, because of a man they fought alongside in a raid having come to power, and it is not a chance any of them will waste.
History: Yamada Toshi was once a fair man, who lived an honest life. He and his brother, Yamada Yoshi, both served in the Imagawa forces for 18 years, before turning to a peaceful life and leading a village for several years together. The village was a growing one, finding itself on the border of Totomi and Shinano. It was a peaceful place, despite all the chaos in the land, and the Yamada brothers successfully provided good lives for their people.
Of the two brothers, Toshi was the one who did the majority of the work, and the people saw this, so they came to adore him. Yoshi was liked, though he was never in any spotlight, which grew to make the man jealous, and would eventually lead to the village's destruction. Jealousy is a powerful thing.
Toshi was out with several of the village's men on a hunt to bring back a big haul that would hopefully last the people a couple of days. During this time, Yoshi hired bandits to ransack the village. With their hero gone, there was no way they could be protected, and the place was destroyed. Yoshi, in his anger, would rape and murder Toshi's wife and daughter, the bandits he hired having their way with the rest of the women and slaying any men who tried to fight back. By the time Toshi returned, the place was a wreck, and the discovery of his dead and defiled wife and daughter destroyed him, allowing Yoshi to push the men out of the village. He would successfully claim it for his own.
For about two years, Toshi and his men turned to the life of bandits, having had their home and families taken from them. Once they felt they were strong enough, though, they launched an attack on the village, looking to wipe the true bandits off the face of the earth. Toshi made it his mission to kill his brother.
Having hired two very capable mercenaries by the names of Amakusa Takehiro and Yoritomo Tetsuo, Toshi led the charge on his village. Yoshi, now the elder, had sent out a call for help, making it seem like they could not defend themselves, and so they gained the assistance of the mercenary Shinomori Katsumi, Takeda officer Sanada Yukimura, and man of Owari Oda Masaru. The numbers between the two forces were equal, and the battle was a bloody one, but eventually Toshi's force would win, with Takehiro crushing Yoshi's skull in with a hammer.
Upon Yoshi's death, Toshi finally felt as if he could really live his life again, having gotten the revenge he sought for so long. He and his men wandered the country for some time, before once again making a trip to Totomi, only to find it now under the rule of Amakusa Takehiro. After some discussion, it was agreed that the wanderer's would make the banner of the Amakusa the one they served under, though initially they sought peace.
Until the attack Sanada Yukimura made on Toshi's village, he was living as a barkeep, and his men and women were all farmers and merchants. The Takeda attack spurred them into action, granting the Amakusa a formidable general that could likely rival Honda Tadakatsu or even Azai Nagamasa in battle.
Musou: Water Manipulation. Toshi has the ability to manipulate any and all forms of water, including the moisture in the air. His primary use of his musou is increasing density of moisture in the air, or robbing a specific spot of all its hydration, though he has many more abilities he does not typically showcase.
