PC: Karasubofu no Hageshi
Hageshi is a 20 year old Mantis Clan Samurai sailor.  He commands a small kobune ship named Karasubofu Maru, more commonly known as the Ravenstorm.  He plys the trade routes between the Islands of Silk and Spice and the Crab port, but sometimes ranges farther into Crane waters.  He specializes in trade and transport, ferrying goods and people from one port to another for a  nominal fee.

He is of gaijin origin, but grew up in the Mantis isles when as baby, he was picked up at sea by a Mantis woman kobune captain.  While somewhat tolerated in his clan, he longs to discover his true parentage, and wonders about his true purpose for being in Rokugan.
