-//Do you have an alternate persona?  Add your information here.//
+Umesaya means "teahouse of the plum", and they would be happy to discuss the origin of the name with you in person anytime!
+Umesaya-rokui was born in the Muromachi period, the ninth male child of their family. At an early age, Umesaya was entrusted to a teahouse to learn the role of a kagema. Taken under the wing of a kindly patron, they flourished and thoroughly enjoy their role as, what the Western world would call, a courtesan (of sorts).
 ===== Whereabouts =====
-Rhys currently resides in the Barony of [[branches:barony:rising_Waters|Rising Waters]], more specifically in St Catharines, Ontario.

+It is appropriate to refer to Umesaya/Rhys as: Umesaya-rokui, Umesaya Soukurou-rokui, Umesaya-dono, Baronial Rhys, Their/Your Excellency. Note that "-rokui" cannot be used as a stand-alone term of address and that "Umesaya" should not be used without a suffix, without permission, nor should they ever be addressed simply by their first name "Soukurou". It is customary in Japanese to add an honourific to a person's last name (Umesaya) unless the individual is a very close friend/family member.
