Bayushi Shoju is considered to be among the most powerful and most desirable men in all of Rokugan. He is the Scorpion Clan Champion, a beloved friend and trusted advisor of Emperor Hantei XXXVIII, and rumored to be one of the handsomest men ever born outside the confines of the Doji family. He is a gifted orator, able to command the attention even of the Imperial Court with a mere word or gesture. He is a peerless duelist and a brilliant tactician. Women swoon in his presence, and men long to earn his favor even as they resent him for his many blessings.
