Yotogi (TCG)

Yotogi was the founder of the Falcon Clan. Their descendants, known as yureigumi, had one or two mismatched eyes, pale ones with a mother-of-pearl shimmer. These eyes allowed the yureigumi to see phantoms and hunt them. Small Mercies, by Robert Denton III
== Falcon Clan ==
Yotogi's father gave his life in Toritaka Province to protect the visiting Emperor's chief advisor from assassins. The Emperor granted his son, Yotogi, the right to form the Falcon Clan, in his village and surrounding lands. He investigated and found the assassins who killed his father were only peasants, but had been possessed by evil, otherworldly beings. Yotogi called to his father's spirit for aid in understanding what could have caused this to come about. He meditated for months, and when he emerged he said “there are not enough names” for his new knowledge. Learning about the Spirit Realms became the Falcon's new mission.

== The Lady ==
It was told that a maiden known as "the Lady" appeared to Yotogi, and guided him in his first steps as phantom hunter. The Lady used to appear to one of the Toritaka once each generation. What she did reveal were a great many techniques useful for hunting and banishing yūrei and other baleful spirits. She became known as Lady Mazoku for her almost casual-familiarity with the practices of the mazoku, the custodians who watch over the gaki and other corrupted souls in Meido. Lady Mazoku visited the Falcon many times, but never stayed for very long. 
== Legacy ==
Yotogi's successors made his name synonymous with clan daimyō, and like their founder, each Yotogi had a preternatural awareness of spirits. Shadowlands: The Essential Guide to the Dominion of Fu Leng, p. 84
