武田四天王の一人。 四天王の中でももっとも古参の武将であり、 武田家の様々な事柄について詳しい。 しかし、その見た目は少年のようである。 風林火山の『山』の字を信玄から任されている。戦う時は戦う、働く時は働く、休む時は休む。 めりはりとけじめをしっかりとつけており、それ故に平時はお茶目な振る舞いを取る事も。

## Historical Information

Yamagata Masakage (山県 昌景, 1524 – June 29, 1575) also known as Obu Masakage was a Japanese samurai warrior of the Sengoku period. He is known as one of the "Twenty-Four Generals of Takeda Shingen". He was famous for his red armour and skill in battlefield, and was a personal friend of Takeda Shingen. He was the younger brother of Obu Toramasa who was also a retainer of Shingen leading the famous "red fire unit" (derived from Shingen's slogan Fūrinkazan).

He was present for the following Battle of Mikatagahara. His last campaign was in the ill-fated Battle of Nagashino in 1575, in which he tried to persuade Katsuyori to honorably withdraw.
After his brother Obu Masatora committed Seppuku as a cover for Takeda Yoshinobu's failed rebellion, Masakage changed his family name to Yamagata (He used the name Obu Masakage at first.).
Ii Naomasa from the Tokugawa clan gained surviving retainers of the Takeda clan and followed the example of "Masakage's red-colored army".
