== Debate ==
After the crippling attacks of the Lying Darkness and Shinjo's purge the kolat were disorganized, and many critical agents were isolated. The organization sought a new focus, torn between their desire to remake the Celestial Order and the more pragmatic desire to ensure the organization's existence. The Tiger, Cloud, Lotus, and Dream Masters were traditional Kolat, with Master Cloud the most vocal member of the group. The Steel, Coin, Silk, and Chrysanthemum Masters all adhered to the modern philosophy. Neither Master Jade nor Master Roc seemed interested in this ongoing debate. Way of the Ninja, p. 42 The latter philosophy was championed by Morito and it seemed to be winning out. Rokugan, p. 202
== Tiger Masters ==
In the 12th century the identity of the master of the Tiger Sect, Master Tiger, was known to no one, not even the other masters. During the Scorpion's assault on the Hidden Temple in 1170, Master Tiger was killed, and underneath the mask was Ujina Heiji. It was likely that he was a decoy for the true Master Tiger.
