Lord Eiichi Yamagata
As a boy, Eiichi Yamagata was sent away to a local monastery where he studied Zen and the martial arts. It is here that he was trained in the sword progressing to be considered one of the greatest swordsmen of current times, a claim enhanced when Eiichi defeated three opponents at once, using nothing but a steel fan.
