[Saccade]

I'd've been a Samurai in the Warring States era...

Preferably one from a house / clan with a good rep for Martial Art and Bonsai (since that's what I do anyway) and playing Go.

I'd spend my days raking my sand garden, practising my sword skills and Martial technique, all the while dreaming of the day I would lead my men to victory and glory for my Daimyo.

Whom I would assassinate and usurp power from (to the rapture of the people) at the first opportunity after much planning.
