'''Description:'''  
Kirichi is 5' 5" tall and broad as a barn. In his younger days he most likely cut a most intimidating figure. Now he's just large. 
Typically dressed however the locals are, his only hints of home are an improbable beard and peculiar open toed sandals. 

'''Personality:'''  
Uncle is orderly, affable, diligent and caring. He's is clearly a soldier and anyone with half clue can clearly see 'officer' written into his movements. Everything is squared away no matter how meager. Anything of value is stowed properly and kept in good shape. Anything that won't be hurt by a little wear and tear - It can probably wait until later assuming you don't need to use it right away in which case why are you thinking about putting it away? The man's most recent profession before 'tourist of insanely dangerous attractions' was as a tea house keeper. Tea is his life and it is almost as much of an obsession as the strange game he plays - he'll teach anyone and ensures that he always has a board around, just in case. Uncle is happy to offer advice (asked for or otherwise) to those who have issues and has been known to be actually quite insightful and wise. This advice tends to be given in the forms of 'When I was a young man...' stories and many are left with the impression that in his native land he'd be quite the people person.

Kirichi is a serious, determined and ruthless opponent that shows up when there's legitimate danger. The stories change to clear warnings or simple and direct statements assuming there's a potential to 'talk down' the situation. 

'''Bio:'''  
Kirichi's done '''a lot'''. Father, husband, officer, tinker, tailor, soldier. Never got around to the "spy" bit. Then he retired for the first time.....then there was some..''unpleasantness'' and he popped out of retirement and took care of some business. 
Then he went '''back''' to being retired and ran a tea house. Then this "Mad Mage" guy comes around and steals tea trees. '''WHO DOES THAT!'''

'''Grudge:''' Kirichi had a long and storied carrier '''before''' he set off with is nephew on a journey of redemption, discovery and adventure. After doing lots of stuff that isn't really important now he retired to run a tea house with his more earthy cousins. He developed a tea tree that was already scented with jasmine and who's leaves will wilt and dry within minutes of picking them. To make the most perfect cub of jasmine tea one would only need to reach out and pluck a few leaves. His entire grove ws stolen by Halaster. In addition to the terrific loss of face for having one's property stolen by non-people Kirichi '''will not stop''' until he has his perfect cup of tea again.
