Isshin

Isshin is a human samurai member from Kamigawa. Trained by the Imperials but disillusioned by their rigidity, he gave his heart — and his swords — to the Asari Uprising.
==History==
Isshin began his career as the bodyguard for an Imperial statesman in rural Kamigawa. He loved his work and found his employer to be an honorable man, but then the emperor disappeared, splintering the central government. Being so far from Eiganjo, Isshin thought they would be safe, but the chaos left his lord destitute, and Isshin was dismissed. He was wandering the countryside doing odd jobs when he was hired by a blacksmith in Sokenzanshi. There, he learned of the Asari Uprisers, a group dedicated to overthrowing the Imperials and putting the government into the hands of the people. Now, he fights alongside them hoping to bring freedom to the land.
==Trivia==
*The title given on Isshin’s card “Two Heavens as One”, as well as his dual blade style, reference the actual Japanese Swordsman Miyamoto Musashi, who was a renowned duelist in 17th Century Edo Japan. Musashi became known as a Kensei or Sword Saint for his skills, and his unique style of using both his Katana and Wakizashi is known as Niten Ichi or “Two Heavens as One”.
