Nil Jenkins

The Daimyo of House Nil makes for a poor courtier, but a great warrior and leader of troops.

Ruby Ayori, Daimyo of House Simian took a more active role in the Clan politics and Jenkins was more than happy to let her, even though he came to understand that tensions with the First House were rising and would likely continue to rise for the foreseeable future.

Jenkins never had any talent for words, usually keeping them to a bare minimum: to utter a snide remark, to belittle an opponent or to order food.

With the death the House Simian Daimyo, Nil Jenkins truely feared he would be condemned to a life at Court. But the rise of Sweet Capucine, the new Daimyo, aleviated his fears. Sweet Capucine proved to be every bit the diplomat her mother was, but she had none of the enmities and baggage that come with years doing politics with the best and most powerful.

Nil Jenkins is thus free to lead and to wage war. The Void Monkey has no real military to speak of, but for the past 10 years the Nil Daimyo has worked to recrute and to train soldiers and commanders. The Clan is now preparing a campaign to retake the lands stolen by the First House in the past years, skirmishes and "chance encounters" with enemy scouts have happened, but the Void Monkey troops have not truely seen any action yet.
