Togashi Osawa, who was not the first name he was known, was an air Ise Zumi of the Dragon Clan.

Destroyer War[]

Togashi Osawa 1

Togashi Osawa

In 1172 during the Destroyer War Osawa was near Ryoko Owari Toshi with the combined Rokugani armies facing the God Beast of Kali-Ma and his summoned spawns. His monks and the Scorpion unit called the Shadow Blades joined the fight alongside Mirumoto Kenzo. [1]

Chosai[]

The Dragon lured the Dark Oracle of Fire Chosai to a trap. Kenzo and Osawa were in the fifth guardtower near the Phoenix border, which was attacked by the Oracle. Isawa Mizuhiko wielding Judgement wounded and drove him back. [2]

Becoming a Legend[]

Many years ago the prophet and Agasha Daimyo Agasha Hamanari told Osawa that a precise day of 1173 he would die in the City of Vines, or that he would live to be an old man of such advanced years that Osawa would become something of a legend. This day Osawa was there during the Destroyer War, to face the forces of Kali-Ma. In a vineyard he met a villager, Toko, and told his story shortly before an ironclad of the Destroyers attacked them. Osawa defeated the gaijin demon in a personal combat. [3]

Colonies[]

Osawa was completely shattered by the War of the Twins, two clans who both had relatively close relations to his own Dragon Clan. The ensuing carnage affected Osawa deeply. The aging monk realized the peace he wished had to be cultivated and maintained. He volunteered for any task to work with the Spider Clan, the new Great Clan who was reviled by the rest of the Empire. He taught those wayward warriors that discipline, not wrath, could make them stronger. Osawa was moved to the Temple District of the Second City, the Colonial capital. [4]

Sensei[]

Osawa became an aged sensei venerated by his students, ise zumi, Asako, and even by the sohei of the Order of Venom alike. In 1198 the Togashi Daimyo Togashi Noboru alongside with Kitsuki Jakuei met him. Noboru questioned to the Spider students, Nishimura, Ohaba, and Sutigu, the reasons behind the Lion attacks to Spider encampments. They refused to explain, and Noboru attempted to get words through a demonstration of force. After the three sohei were defeated, Jakuei inferred the Spider were hiding something. [5]

Death[]

Shortly after the Siege of the Second City, Osawa was killed when his temple, the Temple of the Rising Dragon, was overrun by peasants and samurai driven insane by the influence of P'an Ku. [6]
