| abstract | - Taira Minamoto (みなもとたいら, Minamoto Taira) was a renown samurai from the Land of Iron, hailing from the noble Minamoto clan. He served as a member of the Fifth Division of the Allied Shinobi Forces during the last war were he fought together with the shinobi. He similarily fought during the period of civil conflicts in his home country, and eventually took a young girl named Yozoraōka and her parents in, protecting them from those extremists of the anti-shinobi factions who wouldn't hesitate to kill even former shinobi. After her parents died, Taira adopted Yozoraōka and made her his apprentice, eventually giving her a heirloom on his deathbed when he died of old age and illness.
