Geisha to Kunoichi Rename mod

What the mod does?

This small mod simply changes the name of Geisha agent, in original Shogun 2 campaign only, to Kunoichi to add more cultural accuracy as geisha never performed assassinations e.t.c. People were hiring women specialy trained to blend in, who used geisha costumes to mingle into the higher society.

History

Geisha, geiko, or geigi are traditional Japanese female entertainers who act as hostesses. Their wide skills include performing various arts such as Japanese classical music and traditional dance, witty games and conversation, traditionally to entertain male customers, but also female customers today.

Kunoichi is a term for a female ninja or practitioner of ninjutsu (ninpo).The eighth volume of the ninja handbook Bansenshukai written in the late 17th century describes Kunoichi-no-jutsu. This can be translated as "a technique to use a female" and was employed for infiltration purposes. The meaning "female ninja" might be a purely modern use, that possibly first appeared in the novel Ninpo Hakkenden written by Futaro Yamada in 1964 and became popularized in the following years.
