Mirumoto Kazuya was a bushi of the Dragon Clan.
== Demeanor ==
Kazuya was a brash and arrogant veteran officer of the Dragon Clan. Volatile and easily influenced, Kazuya has gained an interest in the Perfect Land Sect, becoming a follower. The bushi became lover of Asako Haruki, cousin of the Asako Daimyō, who tried desperately to sway him from this heretic path, which was the only reason Kazuya had not embraced their beliefs completely.

== Winter Court - 1122 ==
In 1122 Winter's Court, p. 2 Haruki was the Head of the Phoenix delegation in the Imperial Winter Court at Kyūden Doji. There, an Imperial Herald, Miya Bunji, presented a 12 year old orphan, Masayo, daughter of a Dragon warrior and a Phoenix shugenja. The child had a great affinity with the elements and both clans claimed her for their clan. Kazuya believed Masayo was the child spoken of in the Hinokami Prophecy, destined to become a powerful shugenja, and would one day confront a tremendous creature wreathed in flame, sent to destroy the Dragon and their lands. Kazuya offered to adopt Masayo, in the hope of elevating his status and becoming part of history as the father figure to the child of the Hinokami Prophecy. Haruki in turn worked to bring the child into the Phoenix Clan. During a Kemari game Kazuya accused Isawa Yoshiko, the Phoenix parental candidate for Masayo, of cheating. The matter was resolved with a duel to first blood. During the night several shinobi kidnapped the child, but he was immediatly released by a group of samurai. Eventually, backed by prominent members of the court, Bunji adopted Masayo, as wished by the child. The Scroll or the Blade, pp. 2-5, 11-13, 21
