History:

Saitô Dôsan's origins are unclear. According to rumors, he was born in Yamashiro province and was the illegitimate son of Matsuda Motomune. After attempting a career as an oil-seller, he assumed the name Nishimura Kankurô and entered the service of Nagai Nagahiro of Mino province. According to other rumors, Toshimasa's father, a certain Shinzaemonjô, a monk at the Myoukaku-ji in Kyoto, had given up the priesthood and married the daughter of an oil merchant. He picked up the trade and in the course of hawking his wares on the road happened to run into a friend from his days as a monk at the temple. This acquaintance was now the abbot of the Jouzai-ji in Mino province. The abbot was a relative of the Nagai clan, retainers of the Toki, the shugo of Mino Province who were at that time led by Toki Masafusa.

Regardless of his roots, Dôsan contributed to a general instability within Mino Province by gathering together a small group of samurai while on his own. Toki Yoshinari gave him his concubine in the hopes that this would appease him he is an ambitious schemer. Many of the details of Toshimasa's career to this point are obscure but he certainly was a ruthless schemer who murdered a number of his superiors in his rise. He fought with Oda Nobuhide, father of Nobunaga of Owari province and dealt him a defeat at Kanoguchi using various hit and run tactics with his band of samurai. Soon after, Dosan left his men, and went his own way.

A colorful character, Dôsan also has a reputation for cruelty in battle and is considered by many to be a highly unsavory figure, he is also known as the Viper of Mino (Mino no Mamushi) for his ruthless tactics.

Alrighty, first of all welcome to the site Ero. Tim has spoke highly of you.

First orders of business; I would really enjoy if you had a more appropriate image for Saito Dosan. As the Kessen Oda Nobunaga is not Dosan and can be mistaken for him. I understand it maybe difficult to find an image, but if you can not, I shall for you.

Secondly, your Critical Strike needs to have some form of statement as to what it will do or not do exactly to players.

I was wondering if someone would catch it, and first off, that is not Nobunaga from Kessen, that is Nobunaga from Nobunaga's Ambition Online. And second, I wanted to see just what someone would say about the critical strike move for my guy before I finally edit it.
