[edit] History
[edit] Founding
The Hare Clan was founded in 750 when the ronin Reichin was granted the Usagi family name and minor clan status for his efforts against Iuchiban. (3E p. 15)
[edit] Disbanding
In 1123, when Soshi Yukio attacked the Hare and was killed by Usagi Ozaki, the Scorpion sent an army led by Bayushi Tomaru to attack Shiro Usagi. The castle was destroyed and the Champion, Usagi Oda, was killed. The daughter of Oda, Usagi Tomoe was captured by Tomaru, but his son, Ozaki, escaped with Kenno, the Ancestral Sword of the Hare. The Emperor disbanded the Hare Clan upon hearing sworn testimony from four sources of the clan practicing maho. (3E p. 18)
[edit] Rebuilding
After the heroic efforts of Ozaki in 1125 to clear the soiled name of the Hare Clan, the Emperor declared them once again a minor clan, and the slow process of rebuilding their clan began. (3E p. 19)
