[edit] Founding

In 1131 the Naga, led by the Qamar, laid siege to the lower Dragon provinces. The reasons for this were unknown to most. The Naga rampage destroyed three minor strongholds of the Dragon until they were suddenly halted by the appearance of the Brotherhood of Shinsei. The Brotherhood then surprised many when their forces, consisting mostly of former Togashi Ise Zumi led by Hoshi, joined forces with the Naga. Hitomi's own brother Mirumoto Daini choose to side with the Naga in their attack on his clan. It became clear within weeks that Hoshi had also mastered the art of making tattoos, and many of the Brotherhood swore fealty to the new Hoshi name. (3E p. 20)

[edit] Troubles

The Hoshi family was growing in members slowly, until the year 1169 when the Dragon Clan Champion, Togashi Satsu detected an imbalance within both the Hitomi family and the Hoshi. Satsu announced the unification the three families in the Togashi family, and began tattooing the members of the Hoshi and Hitomi with his own blood in an attempt to restore the balance. ^{[citation needed]}
