You come from a special bloodline, your family is held in high regard, however some of the more powerful people in your war-torn society have taken to using the daughters of your family like pawns in their wars; forgetting the individuals that you are. Wherever you go, you are recognized by the powerful, and the commoners alike, you are treated just as well, if not better than the samurai.

Feature: Special Treatment
Since you come from such a special family, there is hardly anywhere you can go on Mishun soil where you aren’t recognized. Because of this, many may address you by name or last name, and will welcome you into their homes or inns, people will try their hardest to impress you and gain your favor, but because of this you have to put an effort to hide yourself if visiting any populated area if you’re trying to stay undercover.
Suggested Characteristics
As a blessed one, you’ve been shackled in golden handcuffs, you’ve experienced luxury and pampering, but have had little to no say in your own life. Because of this, much of the world may be new to you in how you may be treated, or how you must act with certain groups.
