Ito Haruto

Haruto is a rarity among the Ito as he is well-liked and often overlooked when others are targeted for familial assassination. Perhaps it’s because he seeks only to do his duty as a samurai? Thus removing himself from all the incessant Ito infighting? Or maybe he’s canny enough to project one and cloak the other?

Haruto on the tabletop has a profile you may expect from a medium-cost samurai. The advantage is that all of his abilities have great synergy with the Ito faction as a whole. Give out poison? Haruto has Combo Attack so you can apply more poison! He has the Ito’s usual excellent Move of five. Still, not having the Melee Penalty for running means he can really move to claim ground without being disadvantaged. His Disengage Unique Effect plays amazingly well with the Ito’s tactics. Rounded out with Armour (2) and a pair of enviable Ki Feats Haruto is sure to be a common sight in Lords of Izu lists.
