Kaito Family
The Kaito are the Empire’s newest Great Clan family. Until 1123, they were an obscure vassal family of the Isawa Family, almost all living near a small and remote shrine named Sanpuku Seido , located in the mountains on the extreme northern edge of the Empire. Dedicated shrine keepers with a long tradition of incorporating archery as a component of religious observance, their apparent duty was to maintain watch over a demon who had been sealed away in a deep well by their founder. Their origin is, however, more complex than this; they are descended from the Yobanjin, gaijin people who rejected the Kami at the dawn of the Empire. In 1123, a visit by the Phoenix Clan Champion, Shiba Tsukune, initiated a series of events that led to the Kaito being made a major family in the Phoenix and thrust them into a prominence they had never before known.
