Urabe no Suetake (卜部 季武) was a retainer of the legendary hero Minamoto no Yorimitsu (who can also be referred to as Raikō), supposedly during the Heian period in 12th century Japan. Suetake assisted Raikō throughout his life, being referred to as one of The Four Guardian Kings under Raikō. Suetake originated from the House of Seiryū (Blue Dragon). The Japanese tale in which Suetake appears in is known as Ooeyama. In addition to Suetake, the other guardians under Raikō were Usui Sadamitsu, Kintoki, and Watanabe no Tsuna.
