Biography[edit | edit source]
A native of Japan, Kotetsu's father was in service of a warlord at the beginning of the turbulent Sengoku period. Following a great siege during which many people were slaughtered, he left his beloved homeland and relocated to China along with his infant son. By the 1520s, he had joined the Chinese Brotherhood of Assassins led by the Mentor Wang Yangming, and became one of the few Assassins to survive the Templars' purge of the Brotherhood during the Great Rites Controversy.[1]
In 1526, Kotetsu's father learned that a Precursor box stolen by the Templars was in the possession of Gu Dayong, one of the Eight Tigers who oversaw the slave trade in Macau. He managed to relay this information to Wang Yangming shortly before he was captured by the Templars along with his son. Thrown into Dayong's stronghold, Kotetsu's father distracted the guards to allow his son to escape. He was then taken to be interrogated until Shao Jun killed the soldiers torturing him.[2]
The Assassin told Kotetsu's father that his son was safe and attempted to get him out of the stronghold, but his injuries were too severe. He asked Shao Jun to tell his son "Kotetsu will return home" before passing away. Shao Jun performed his last rites and left to assassinate Dayong.[2]
