 Kyodai towers over most. With little beard to speak of at the moment, he wears his hair long, and could easily be mistaken for a Hida. He is usually clad in armor common to the Hiruma, though adorned in Phoenix colors.


History
 His birth heralding great doubt as to his true lineage, Kyodai's childhood filled with
accusations regarding Kaiu Wall. While raised courteously until his gempukku, his father
relentlessly hunted for an opportunity to end the towering symbol of his marital shame.

 Kyodai's first duty as a Samurai was the formation of a minor alliance; A student and a
valuable set of scrolls detailing the techniques of a dead clan for the Yasuki, low profile
and a 'prestigious' opportunity for the Shiba, or at least his father.

 The young man took well to his future wife and relatives, doing his best to absorb and acclimate to the duties of the Crab. A pragmatic Hida uncle of Eiko has agreed to decipher and teach him the style contained within. Kyodai currently travels to hone what little has been unearthed within the scrolls, and to better know the land for future duty.

 His name is Huge, and through Glory and good fortune, so shall be his dojo.
