Mikaru

Born a ronin, Mikaru once had dreams of becoming a hero.
== Mercenary in Falcon lands ==
He found himself in the lands of the Falcon Clan and was placed at a watch tower at the edge of Shinomen Forest. When all the other ronin left or transfered out of boredom, he was left in charge due to seniority. This was the chance he had waited for. Way of the Wolf, p. 81
== Naga hunter ==
A scout reported that snakes as big as horses were coming from the forest and then Mikaru could see them. Three Naga the size of childern emerged form the forest unarmed. Mikaru had them killed, saying it was a trick and dispatched the scout to send word to the Falcon. Mikaru looted the corpses of their riches of pearls and gold. The next morning the tower was attacked by the Naga and all were killed but Mikaru. He was sent away by a Naga with blazing red eyes, with a warning for the rest of the humans. "Warn them what happens to those who sssslaughter the Naga." Upon returning to the Falcon Clan, he was cast out with the promise that no clan, Great or minor, would ever accept his failure. Mikaru now hunted and killed all Naga he came in contact with. Way of the Wolf, pp. 81-82
== Forest-Killers ==
Since that day, Mikaru found a home with the brutal Forest-Killers, using their teachings in his personal crusade. Way of the Wolf, p. 82 Mikaru became their leader and used them as a tool to exact revenge on the Naga. Way of the Ninja, p. 78
== Death ==
Mikaru was slain by the Balash, Time of the Void, p. 143 his sworn enemy. Another accounts said Mikaru got his prize, wearing a new sash tanned from the Balash's hide.
