Yami Clan

Yami Clan (夜見一族) were a family of assassins in the Hino Country and served as protectors of Goshu, under the Ryudo Clan.

Overview
The family gained notoriety for their magic swordsmanship and skills as assassins, earning them the name "Kijin" (鬼人). After demonstrating their power during the age of wars, the family became protectors of Goshu, an area at the edge of the Hino Country and under the rule of the Ryudo Clan.

The strongest of the clan would be given the title "Kijin" (鬼神).

When he was 13 years old, Yami Sukehiro killed the rest of the clan (except his little sister) before fleeing the country.

Trivia

 * Yami contains the kanji for "night" (夜) and "appearance" (見).
