Hantei Muhaki became the eighth Emperor of Rokugan in 442 after the death of his niece Hantei Yugozohime during the Battle of White Stag. [1]
[edit] Gaijin Treachery
Not long after the Battle of the White Stag, the gaijin sent an ambassador do parley with Muhaki. The ambassador claimed they wished to leave without further bloodshed, and requested supplies to aid them on their voyage. Muhaki agreed to meet with the gaijin. The meeting was a trap however, and Muhaki's life was only saved due to the skill of the master archer Matsu Koritome. Koritome himself was killed, and Muhaki declared an archery tournament to be held in Koritome's honor. The Lion attending the tournament impressed the Lion Clan Champion Matsu Zaruko to such an extent that the two-hundred still in the competition were the first to become members of the Koritome vassal family.[2]
[edit] Edicts
The battle in which his predecessor died was a major influence on the early days of his reign, including the issuance of Imperial edicts banning the use of gaijin powder[3] and closing Rokugan's borders to all gaijin.[1]
