No, that's not the Tsuji. :) In the SCA, which purports to be a medieval recreation-education group, one researches a time/place of interest within the rules and creates a 'persona', someone who could have lived then/there, but is not an actual historical figure, nor out of historical fiction, nor out of fantasy. Must be one's own personal fiction. So...
Tsuji Ryuuzo is the third son of a little known member of the bushi (warrior) class, born 1572 Common Era in northern Honshu. He left home at a young age under dubious circumstances, and through a series of unfortunate and fortunate events managed to survive a Japanese incursion in Korea and the Battle of Sekigahara, and to avoid the Seige of Osaka Castle. The latter two events established the Tokugawa Shogunate, and consolidated their hold on the nation for the next 250 years or so.
