Shiba Jakuchu

Shiba Jakuchu was a Provincial Governor under the rule of Shiba Ujimitsu. Way of the Ratling, p. 9
== Hunter ==
Jakuchu and his younger brother Shiba Akihisa were taught the art of hunting by their father, a tradition inherited since Jakuchu's grandfather spent some time among the Unicorn. 
== Death ==
Jakuchu became the Provincial Governor after his father. During one of their hunting trips, they encountered creatures that had long fingers and curling tails, and in the ensuing fight Jakuchu was killed. Akihisa petitioned Shiba Ujimitsu for the stewardship of his brother's lands and to send the troops that he required to eliminate the menace dwelling along the northern borders. 
=== Murdered ===
Secretely, Akihisa had seen an opportunity to replace his brother when they met the creature pack. An enemy arrow had killed Akihisa's horse, so he took his the blade and struck Jakuchu down. He then used the only surviving horse and the murderer rode home to claim the family's lands. Way of the Ratling, p. 10
