Goshi (TCG)

Goshi were Rokugani countryside samurai. It was not uncommon for them to tie up their kimono sleeves and
work alongside the peasants they oversaw. The Sparrow Clan took this to an extreme, all of its samurai effectively being goshi. Where appointment of a true samurai vassal was impossible, a peasant might be given specific privileges of the samurai caste and gain the authority of a goshi. Heimin loyalty to goshi run deep, and these rural samurai enjoyed considerable sway over their local area. Emerald Empire: The Essential Guide to Rokugan, p. 101
