Chikamasu was the youngest son of [[Chosokabe Kunichika]] and a brother of [[Chosokabe Motochika]]. He suffered from tuberculosis and in [[1571]] set out to a hot spring in [[Awa province]] in an attempt to bolster his health. En route he was murdered by Awa samurai who mistook him for a spy. This is said to have provided Chosokabe Motochika with a pretext for his invasion of Awa province. Chikamasu was remembered as a big and cheerful individual, despite his flagging health.
