Nobushi

 Nobushi are masterless warriors, men/women without ties to a lord, temple, or monastery. They are commonly mercenaries, bandits, highwaymen, or wanderers, earning their money however they can. They can be found serving Samurai, protecting the court, or swelling the ranks of armies. A few may be Kensai who have fallen by the way. Most, however, are of low birth who have chosen the way of the warrior to advance in the world.
