Long story short: Eijo has two brothers and an adopted sister: Doji Hoturi, Doji Kuwanan, and Doji Shizue. His father is Doji Satsume, the Emerald Champion and Crane Clan champion. His mother has thrown herself from a cliff. He keeps a token of her affection, a small netsuke shaped like a feather. He is close with Shizue.
When he was young, Daidoji Rekai beat his ass on his first day of training with the Daidoji dojo and told he should never touch a sword again or he would bring dishonor to his entire family. He has not touched a sword since. His father saw the encounter and simply walked away, not interacting with his child since.
Third son of Doji Satsume. Has always been repulsed by blood and couldn’t hold a sword to save his life. Sent to the Artisans where he flourished and proved to be goddamned amazing. Has recently developed a style of art that creates a different image depending on what angle you look at it. He is still refining it as well as developing a new medium.
Currently working on this style of art, combining origami and sculpture:
