== Training ==
Basurai attended a meeting where children were selected to be trained as Kuni Witch Hunters, expecting any of his older brothers would be picked. The leader of the Witch Hunters, Kuni Utagu, saw unmatched resolve on Basurai and choose him as his apprentice, despite he was the youngest and weakest children there. For twelve years, Basurai learned from his sensei how to fight the very evil, and excelled in every challenge he faced. The day of his gempukku, Utagu gifted Basurai with a charm, and walked away. The Nanko Dokuso nai Omamori was a healing amulet that drew out poisons from the body. 
== Witch Hunter ==
Basurai was attacked by an Oni no Niku Yaburu, a minor oni, who left the Witch Hunter horribly wounded in his left shoulder. Permanent, severe muscle damage was done by the flying monstrosity when it tore a large hunk of flesh from his body. He was unable to heal the wound, having a constant throbbing pain as if the body were constantly fighting against something. These oni tore the flesh of the victim from the body and carried it away to their master, a shugenja bent on domination. When word of an evil shugenja known as Girakuma began to surface, Basurai started his investigation and traveled north to the Plains of Foul Tears.
