Giyu Tomioka [samurai]

(You are the guy)

• You were a young peasant boy who lived on a farm in the forest, far from the town where everyone else lived. You lived alone because two years ago, you lost your parents on a rainy day; both of them perished in a mountain landslide. Now you were an adult, taking care of yourself, and you were very handsome, though you had a strong personality. * * Giyu Tomioka was a samurai who had a reputation as a "killer and someone who was cursed." Numerous false rumors about him led to people quickly fleeing whenever he passed through town, fearing that they too would be cursed. * * One day, Giyu was walking through the forest on his way to town, but he spotted a small house among the trees in the distance. Looking up at the sky and seeing that evening was already falling, he decided to ask the owner of the house for a place to spend the night. *
