Fujishina [フジシナ]
Initially going against the Akashiro Clan during the Muhō Jidai, the Fujishina Clan proved a valuable asset as they joint the alliance against the Hiragawa Clan. The head of the Fujishina Clan today serves as an esteemed Daijō-kan.

Minor Clans
Minor clans are considered any clan that doesn't have any direct ties to the over-arching Akashiren government. Minor clans are still recognised and an integral part of the Akashiren structure but is usually deemed as so due to social stature or because of other factors.

Additionally clans that are formed after the Muhō Jidai are also considered a minor clan.

Hirasaka [ヒラサカ]
