The elderly Shijin is one of the most famous living poets in the Empire. Stooped and thin, with a long wispy goatee, Shijin spends most of his days in the Fantastic Gardens of the Doji at Kyuden Doji, meditating on the beauty around him and writing down the poems it inspires. He is rumored to be seeking a student, a personal apprentice he could teach in the ways of poetry.
