The Greater Tosa

Created by Bonix

This obsidian-hued banner bears the proud emblem of a falcon at its center, the heraldic symbol of the Tosa clan who once held dominion over the entirety of Shikkoku island. The flag's design evokes the mighty sight of Tosa's formidable archers and musketeers, whose reputation for martial excellence echoed across the Fractured Lands of Japan. During the Age of Arrogance, the Tosa were feared as relentless raiders, their swift naval assaults and guerrilla campaigns bringing ruin to the Greater Aki Dominion's coastal holdings. The clan's internal strife—between traditionalist nobility clinging to bow-mastery and progressive militarists embracing the power of firearms—ultimately weakened their grip on power. The Heavenly Empress Yamatagi exploited this division ruthlessly, conquering Tosa and folding their legendary warriors into her Western Imperial Army as elite marksmen and infiltrators. Bearing this banner carries the weight of both glorious independence and bitter subjugation, a reminder of martial prowess
