Arai Tetsuo

Lord Tetsuo is the head of the Arai clan. Although he has an older brother who would normally have inherited, he was exiled for arguing with his father. Tetsuo is tall and lean, and has ruled Ariki fairly for 15 years. At 51, his hair is streaked with just the slightest tinge of grey, but he is a deadly opponent with sword spear or bow and even with his bare hands. Tetsuo is a fairly characteristic provincial lord; he has a gloss of culture, but is happiest with his warriors - training or hunting. He has little to do with even his closest neighbours and cares even less for the great doings afoot in the south.
