Hôjô Tokimasa was a valued ally of [[Minamoto Yoritomo]] from the latter’s days as an exile in [[Izu province|Izu]], when he married Tokimasa’s daughter Masako. Tokimasa joined Yoritomo in declaring war on the [[Taira clan|Taira]] family in [[1180]] and served on his Kamakura headquarters for the duration of the war. After the Taira defeat in [[1185]], Tokimasa was sent to present a request to the Imperial Court that supposedly resulted in the first appointments of Shugo and jitō. The [[Hojo clan|Hôjô]], led by Tokimasa and the influential Masako, had become one of the most powerful families in Kamakura when Yoritomo was named Shogun in [[1192]].
