Ki Clan (姫)

The Ki Clan (姫家 Kike) is one of the Kou Gates. The clan's name translates to "Princess".
==Information==
They are the main clan of retainers for the Kou Clan. The Clan was purged by Shi Senka, except for the Hourin (鳳麟 Hōrin), a legendary military strategist whose existence is top secret. They typically only make themselves known in times of great unrest, when the fate of the Kou Clan is at stake. Because of this, even members of the Kou Clan are skeptical of their existence however, if they issue an order, the clan will act without question. Their authority is second only to that of the Head of the Kou Clan. It is rumoured that they have influence over the next Clan Head. The Hourin does not appear every generation and the title is sometimes not given to someone in decades. They can be recognised by the distinctive seal he or she bears. The seal is extremely difficult to fake, unless it is done by someone with artistic skills on par with members of the Heki Clan. The Clan is known as the Brains Behind the Kou Clan (紅家の頭脳 Kōke no Zunō) and all members are exceptional military strategists, cunning villains and the greatest liars.
