'The Dragon of Echigo,' Kenshin is among the most fearsome of the Samurai Warriors. Originally a member of the Yamauchi Uesugi family, he took over control of the Kanto region. Later he entered the priesthood and changed his name to Kenshin. His belief in the god of victory, Bishamonten, and the guardian gods of Buddhism were deep. His battle flag featured the character 'bi' (short for Bishamonten) emblazoned on a white background. He fought countless battles against his old nemesis Shingen Takeda and Ujiyasu Houjou and his son Ujimasa of the Kanto region, but it can be said that he was a righteous person who never fought an unjust battle.

His weapon is the seven bladed sword for short-range attacks, and the Shikigami - summoned spirits - for long range attacks. His initial weapon is the wave sword.
