Yogo Junzo was the Yogo Daimyo during the time when Bayushi Shoju was the Scorpion Clan Champion. After the death of Shoju during the failed Scorpion Coup and the destruction of the Scorpion Clan that followed, Junzo began a downward spiral into corruption by opening several of the Black Scrolls.

[edit] The Black Scrolls
In anguish over the death of his Clan Champion Bayushi Shoju and enraged at the Emperor for destroying his family and the Clan, he violated his clan's ancient duty and opened the first of the 12 Black Scrolls creating a deadly wasting disease spreading across Rokugan, bringing misery and death to all who contracted it. It also transformed Junzo, crafting him into one of Fu Leng's undead servants.[1] He later opened the second scroll to create his base of operations, the Iron Citadel, deep in the heart of the Shadowlands.[2]
[edit] Corruption
Junzo's corruption caused him to believe he had been chosen by Fu Leng himself to lead the Shadowlands against Rokugan. Junzo also believed that he had found some form of enlightenment, and even dreamed of becoming Fu Leng himself.[3]
[edit] Death
Junzo was killed by Otaku Kamoko during the Second Day of Thunder. Afterwards the Scorpion burned his remains and scattered the ashes in Traitor's Grove, though his soul had long since escaped into Jigoku. [citation needed]
