MATSUDAIRA Motoyasu was a heir of MATSUDAIRA Hirotada who ruled Okazaki , Mikawa. He called himself TOKUGAWA Ieyasu later.
He was a hostage of IMAGAWA Yoshimoto and studied under TAIGEN Sūfu Sessai. He served in the Battle of Okahazama and enters Okazaki Castle, his family's castle after the death of Yoshimoto. Then he formed an alliance with ODA Nobunaga and also allied himself with TAKEDA Shingen who conquered Suruga but it's dissolved soon after. Later he and Nobunaga attacked TAKEDA Katsuyori, heir of Shingen and destroyed his clan in 1582. After Nobunaga died because of Honnoji Incident, he served TOYOTOMI Hideyoshi. After his death, he made many of Hideyoshi's vassals serve him and win the Battle of Sekigahara. In 1603, he established Edo Bakufu and destroyed the Toyotomi clan in 1615. In the following year, he died at the age of 75.
In this series, he is a hostage of Yoshimoto and lives in his residence. He is familiar with Sessai and is told by him to establish a rule in the future but immediately after he dies. He joins Yoshimoto's army and carries provisions into Ōtaka Castle but disappears after the battle and is rumoured that he enters Okazaki Castle.
