(for those not familiar with Battletech House Kurita claim descent from Takeo Kurita and in the 2420s would be almost wiped out through the usurpation of their throne by Nihongi Von Rohrs, the illegitimate son of a Kurita daughter and a stable-hand. Nihongi was born 2394 in that history, probably making him a bit young for this role even if the Draconis Combine existed in Undocumented Features - and as far as I know, they don't.)
