Hidden Guard (TCG)

Hidden Guard was an elite group of Seppun shugenja or bushi who had devoted themselves to understanding the kami and the teachings of Shinsei. They were just as prepared to place themselves between the Emperor and spiritual harm. Many members of the Hidden Guard were adept wardmasters capable of crafting durable defenses to guard areas frequented by the Emperor and their family from magical intrusion or attack. There was a close relationship between the Hidden Guard and groups such as the Kuni Witch Hunters of the Crab, the Asako Inquisitors of the Phoenix, and the Kuroiban, or Black Watch, of the Scorpion.
