Army of the Samurai

The Army of the Samurai are a rebel military group inspired by Samurai Jack. Taking in war orphans and trained to be the ultimate warriors, they are a force to be reckoned with. Though in time of the Samurai’s absence, they are grossly lacking in the code of Bushido and act more like bandits, raiding villages when they are saved.

Background
The Army of the Samurai is a rebel army founded by warriors such as Lucas Starhiker, Elektra Von Leubenherse, and others to join the cause to defeat Aku once and for all. It is also were orphans that have been left behind by Aku’s Beetle Drone forces after destroying their homes and villages. Within the caravan-like army, the orphans are then trained to become "weapons and tools" to fight against the forces of Aku. The army is in an island-sized caravan on moving fortresses on wheels or legs that continuously move around the world in search to fight and destroy Aku’s forces.

The soldiers have overseers through appointed Inquisitors to ensure no means of escape; desertion is not tolerated. However, aside from that, the orphan soldiers are free to decide their own chain of command.

Since almost all the militia are discovered and sent to the Fortress Caravan when they are just either babies or children, almost all of the caravan’s inhabitants grow up on it. It seems that taking care of the children falls under the responsibility of mentors and teachers that encourage their students and give them emotional and mental support, until they reach the age when they forced into a certain form of labor on the caravan troupe, which seems to be only twelve years old.

The soldiers are paid in cash for their jobs. Using this money they are able to buy things at either a local town for something personal, or in the Caravan Fortress known as Maggie’s Mall, from weapons to clothes. They are even allowed to buy things to customize their armor and/or Bike Mechs to their liking. According to the Shogun Commanders in Chief, Elektra, the Army of the Samurai has a rule that states that in the Caravan, everything can be bought with enough money. Falling ill is no excuse for not being able to to your job. Therefore, if someone is bedridden, that person will lose one million cash for each day they have to spend off because of it. However, once a year the 'Geisha Festa' is held, the one day the Army of the Samurai are off from work.
