Bayushi Kobashi was an Emerald Magistrate of the Scorpion Clan.
== Station ==
Kobashi was a trusted agent of Shosuro Jimen, and he was enlisted as an Emerald Magistrate once Jimen became the Emerald Champion. Kobashi had an extremely
checkered past and was involved in any number of horrific activities throughout his career. Vacant Throne, p. 172
== Spider Agent ==
Kobashi was sent as chief magistrate of Shutai, with the ronin Junichi as his lieutenant. Shutai was a village of vice and sin, and the place where the called Spider Clan had several agents. Kobashi uncovered their activities, but he looked the other way while they went about their business. The Spider bribed Junichi, and as his rite of passage he had to murder Kobashi. 
== Death ==
In 1171 Kakita Noritoshi, sworn enemy of his master Jimen, came to Shutai to gain information from Kobashi. When he discovered the depth of Kobashi's corruption, however, Noritoshi became incensed and killed the Emerald Magistrate. Vacant Throne, pp. 172-173
