Hiruma Gakuto

Please note: This article is about the scout. For other uses of the term, please see Gakuto (disambiguation).
Hiruma Gakuto was a scout of the Crab Clan. In 1117 he was part of a party that entered the Shadowlands chasing the Shadow Oni, a monster which needed a living host, a mind to fill with hubris and vice. His commander Hida Kiyosue was killed by Kuni Ritsuko, after he was possessed by the oni. The Shugenja realized the demon had passed onto her, so she ordered the scouting team to chain her to a nearby tree, and left her alone, waiting death, forcing the Shadow Oni to die, as it would not find another suitable host in the vicinity.
