Kuronada was a ronin bushi, duelist, tactician and kensai.
Father[]
Kuronada was the son of Karatsu, a ronin shugenja and a madman tyrant. [1] His mother died during the childbirth. [2]
Fleeing[]
Kuronada
After Karatsu was cast out from his clan he established a small city in the Great Northern Mountains. He was a charismatic leader, and many followed him. Over time it became apparent that he was a madman, and led the city as a tyrant. [1] Kuronada was despised by his father because he was born without the capability to become a shugenja. He fled the city, fearing that he would be killed by his own father. A curse had been laid upon the city, and those who leave were unable to reveal its location. [3]
Legion of Two Thousand[]
In 1170 Kuronada was met by Tamago, second in command of the ronin Legion of Two Thousand proposed him to join the Legion. [4] In 1171 he was commander of the Legion. [5]
Plague War[]
Kuronada
In 1172, during the Destroyer War, his father became concerned that the war would disrupt his little "empire" hidden away in the mountains. The only threat to him was his son, Kuronada, so he began travelling the Empire seeking him. [1] Karatsu allied with the Dark Oracle of Fire, Chosai, and tested the might of the Legion. [6] He began an attack in the Treacherous Pass attempting to bait the Legion into responding in order to in turn identify where their base was, but the arrival of a joint force of Hiruma Stalkers, Kitsuki Justicars, and Ikoma Wardens halted the attack. [7]
Siege of the Wolves[]
When Karatsu knew the location of the Palace of the Breaking Dawn, he attacked to see the Legion and his son ushered from the mortal realm by his hand. [6] The Karatsu's forces were defeated in the Siege of the Wolves, [8] when force of Great Clans and Spider arrived in time and foiled Karatsu's vengeance. [6] Karatsu abandoned his allies when the battle was lost to move into the castle itself, [3] but it was Kuronada who emerged from their duel victorious. [8] The body of Karatsu was not recovered and the Empire supposed he was still alive. [3]
Battle of Treacherous Pass[]
In 1200 Kuronada and other members of the Legion oversaw the Battle of Treacherous Pass, where the Phoenix defeated the Unicorn invaders. [9]
