Kakita Ichirō

Kakita Ichirō was the son of Kakita Toshimoko, and nephew of the Kakita Daimyō Kakita Yoshi. Ichirō was appointed as deputy seneschal of Kyūden Kakita, under the command of the castle's seneschal, Kakita Wataru. In 1123 Ichirō became a hostage of the Lion Clan after Matsu Tsuko's forces stormed the castle. Ichirō was escorted to the nearest Crane garrison, where he informed his uncle, the Kakita daimyō, that the Lion controlled his castle and lands, and Tsuko was the acting protector of Yoshi's wife, Kakita Barahime.
