Mercenary Force
Over a hundred years ago, during the time of the mighty Shogun, the Lord of Darkness sent his fearsome army to terrorize the Japanese land. Using the Dark Lord's powerful magic, his evil minions spread famine, plague, and pestilence wherever they went, leaving the peaceful population hopelessly oppressed. All who challenged the evil lord were mercilessly killed as a warning to all who continued to think of rebellion. One day, while meditating, the great shogun Tokugawa had a divine vision in which he saw a small group of powerful warriors rising up to defeat the evil lord. He immediately set out to recruit the five bravest and most skilled fighters in the land. After months of searching, he was finally ready to turn his dream into reality. It was time to unleash the mercenary force.
