Doji Shizue
Shizue Doji
Doji Shizue was a Crane story teller, born to a Doji father and a Scorpion mother. Her father was Doji Ichihara, the brother of the Crane Clan Champion Doji Satsume.
Shizue is not a great beauty, but a lovely girl with bright grey eyes and long white hair. She is quick to smile and laugh, and her voice could convey a tremendous depth of emotion. Due to the crippled foot her steps are slow, but rhythmic, and thanks to some of the dancing she was taught by Teinko, she moves quite gracefully

Education
Shizue was not only taught to be an artisan, but when she was old enough Satsume ordered Kakita Yoshi to train her as a spy. She would incorporate hidden messages in her stories to convey information to Yoshi, Satsume or Hoturi, and her access to the Imperial Court gave her a lot of critical information. She has a great capacity for memorizing manuscripts at a glance and deciphering hidden codes in writing as well as speeches. Yoshi himself spoke highly of her, and would frequently say she would make a fine addition to the Crane Ambassadors to the Imperial Court when she was older. To the other clans however she remains only a goodwill ambassador. Her sunny disposition could make any courtroom cheerful, and she would frequently travel to the Lion, Scorpion, Phoenix or Dragon lands.
Employment
Storyteller to the Emperor
Only two years after her gempukku Shizue was asked to be present in the Emperors court. Her gift for storytelling was unmatched, and many thought she was the reborn spirit of Kakita's sister Kakita Kiyamori. She is skilled in other things such as song and calligraphy, and even Satsume could sometimes be heard to mumble faint praises about the girl.Social
