History
When Shisato came of age, it was time for her to choose a tribe, and the warrior caste was the obvious choice.[3] As was tradition, she had to prove her worth through ritual combat. But when she killed her opponent instead of just besting him, she touched off a chain of vendettas. Four orochi warriors fought her to avenge their fallen kin, and Shisato slew all four. Shisato’s venom was so strong that just a few drops could kill another orochi, preventing her from participating in the Kashi tribe's rituals.
Shisato was never welcomed by the tribe, although its leader Sosuke acknowledged that she was a skilled hunter and killer.[3] She was simply too ruthless and too deadly; the other orochi feared and distrusted her. Over the years, Shisato grew bitter and lonely, and began to venture further from the orochi colonies. Eventually she began to hunt bigger prey: the Jukai Forest’s human monks.[1][2]
