It is the late Edo Period, the last days of the Samurai. Japanese society is undergoing dramatic changes.

Much has been changed and much has been lost, but the heart of the Samurai remains the same...

Our story opens in Amihama , a city rocked by this turbulent times.

———————————————

Well after this little monologue I would like to explain what I have in mind :
The story begins with my character and her father, a British merchant. My character had been accompanying her father on his trips to Japan since little so was able to learn japanese and practice it often.

It is during one is this trips they are attacked by pirates near Amihama. My character is pushed off the ship by her father before the ship explodes and manages to swim to the coast of Amihama, she arrives hoping to get help capture the pirates, but Amihama has much more problems than just pirates.

This is where Your character somehow shows up (we have to come up with a good excuse). What I have in mind for your character is that she is the daughter of a recently deceased master of a Dojo that has no students at all and is practically bankrupt.

Raised as a samurai she sees helping my character as something honorable (as well as an opportunity to get some fame and students).

The factions
Amihama is suffering from both internal and external chaos. Among the factions fighting to take control over the city we find:

This group is the "righteous" ruler of Amihama, under the Chief Magistrate Shinren Kotokami. Thanks to the Magistrates Amihama had ketp for itself a certain level of independency from the Bakufu. However their methods have become very cruel recently and the Magistrates do not hesitate to cut anyone down even if they don't have proof then person is guilty. The people from Amihama are getting tired of them

It was founded long ago to keep alive the principles of chivalry and justice. At some point they were considered a better police force better than the Magistrates. However, with the death of the former leader and and under Hanzaemon Tenzen the gang has turned into a yakuza clan that benefits from gambling dens, extortion, and other shady business like murder. They often run in to fights against the Magistrates since they have the power to face them.

There are some minor gangs that try to get some money. Sometimes they associate with the Mabushi, sometimes not and cause them trouble

These guys work for their own and cause a lot of trouble to the sailors, both japanese and foreign. This causes a lot of friction between the Bakufu and the foreign countries. They have some connections with the Mabushi

There are many foreign countries trying to make money out of trading with Japan. Foreigns can sometimes be seen walking around the docks

The Bakufu is trying to find any excuse to take direct control of Amihama, even if it costs blood. However they have to tread carefully as an international war could break out any moment

The story is not as simple as it may seem and has some things to polish but if you are interested in playing a samurai girl just pm me.

What I have in mind is a 18 year old girl. Despite her cute face she can defend herself, at least in a 1vs1 since her father taught her some sword fencing.
