Tachibana Rising

Adds my family clan, Tachibana, to our ancestral home of Tachibanayama in Chikuzen!

Our clan of Tachibana originated with Ôtomo Sadatoshi, he was the lord of Tachibanayama Castle on the island of Kyūshū and was granted the name for his great prowess in battle, cutting down many foes with his sword that stood nearly 3 meters tall! His name was passed down as the family name of the retainers who served the Ôtomo who ruled over Tachibanayama. Historically, the Tachibana dutifully served the Ôtomo as loyal vassals for centuries until in the mid-16th century, a military conflict between Ôtomo Akitoshi and Yoshishige (later Sōrin upon entering the priesthood) erupted, causing Akitoshi to break from the clan and take up the name Tachibana Dōsetsu. Dōsetsu, however, had no sons due to the legend of "Raikiri" disabling him from the waist down, he could no longer produce any heirs, but he had a daughter by the name of Ginchiyo. Dōsetsu would later beg his good friend, Takahashi Jōun, to allow him to adopt his son. Takahashi would eventually accept, and Dōsetsu would wed his daughter to his newly adopted son, Takahashi Munetora. Munetora would take up the name of Tachibana Muneshige, and under the strict tutelage of his new father, would eventually go on to be known as the "Western Titan", the strongest and finest warrior in all of western Japan.

Fun legend time!!

Raikiri; One day, Tachibana Dōsetsu had sat down to rest under a sakura tree and drifted to a doze. When suddenly, a lightning bolt struck out of nowhere, startling Dōsetsu awake! He would by reflex draw his sword and cut the lightning with his sword! It is said that if Dōsetsu had not drawn his blade, he surely would have died, but he escaped the clutches of death only being paralyzed from the waist down. Dōsetsu would then name his sword that had been warped by the lightning Raikiri, or "Lightning Cutter".

(Unrelated, but this mod also adds the Ainu culture to the Japanese culture group because of a personal bias.)

!!! NOT Ironman compatible as making any new nations, idea groups or changing the map renders EU4 saves invalid for achievements, sorry!!!
