Toyokuni was the son of [[Yamana Toyosada]] ([[1512]]-[[1560]]) and in his career clashed with the [[Hatano clan|Hatano]] and [[Akamatsu clan|Akamatsu]] clans. He made a pact with the [[Mori clan|Môri]], then yielded to the advancing [[Oda clan|Oda]] armies of [[Toyotomi Hideyoshi]]. Toyokuni fled [[Tottori castle]] rather then face Hideyoshi and left it to be defended by [[Kikkawa Tsuneie]] in one of the [[Sengoku Period|Sengoku Period's]] most vicious sieges.
