People

Martazera was a member of the Ujik-hai.

Desert life[]

Martazera was mother of several sons, all of them died during her life. She had battled Desert Raiders, she had hunted wyrms of the northern reaches, and raided the Ivory Kingdoms caravans, which the merchants bestroded elephants. [1]

Ki-Rin[]

Martazera was an old woman of fifty-three years when her tribe was met by the Rokugani Ki-Rin Clan. She became an ally of the Kami Shinjo during the Ki-Rin's Exodus, and opened her eyes to the differences between the Ki-Rin and other lands. [1] She established a strong bond between the Ujik-hai and the Unicorn, forging a new faction that would eventually become known along the desert steppes as the Moto. [2]

Qolat Member[]

Martazera was a secret member of the Qolat conspiracy within the Ujik-hai. After she gained Shinjo's trust Martazera suggested taking the clan's heirs apparent into the desert alone for “training”. It mostly involved survival skills, but also included subtle brain-washing techniques and instruction about the Kolat's greater purpose. [3]

Death[]

Martazera made the Kurichitai when she felt the time had come. Shinjo followed her, and after she reached Martazera, the Ujik-hai explained she had to take the journey alone, to end her life following her own customs. Shinjo returned with the Ki-Rin, leaving the old woman with her last ride. [1]
