She was the first female samurai, from what I heard she pretty famous. More than Ushi and Benkei I think as she got a stage play about her, and also show up in a festival as an annual appearance, and show up in video games and other stuff. She was also able to rip off the head of Onda no Hachiro(A fame strongman) in fate; irl she twisted his head off. The real-life version of her was able to led an army of 1000 at the Battle of Tomiyama to victory, and in the Battle of Uchide No Hama she led an army of 300 into an impossible battle against 6,000 cavalries and come out alive.

And this was also said:

"Tomoe had long black hair and a fair complexion, and her face was very lovely; moreover she was a fearless rider whom neither the fiercest horse nor the roughest ground could dismay, and so dexterously did she handle sword and bow that she was a match for a thousand warriors, and fit to meet either god or devil. Many times had she taken the field, armed at all points, and won matchless renown in encounters with the bravest captains, and so in this last fight [i.e. the Battle of Awazu in 1184], when all the others had been slain or had fled, among the last seven there rode Tomoe."

But another source said this:

"Tomoe was especially beautiful, with white skin, long hair, and charming features. She was also a remarkably strong archer, and as a swordswoman she was a warrior worth a thousand, ready to confront a demon or god, mounted or on foot. She handled unbroken horses with superb skill; she rode unscathed down perilous descents. Whenever a battle was imminent, Yoshinaka sent her out as his first captain, equipped with strong armor, an oversized sword, and a mighty bow; and she performed more deeds of valor than any of his other warriors. Thus she was now one of the seven who remained after all the others had fled or perished."

They both seem to agree that she worth a thousand warrior. I guess the Oni come from that Fate seem to have a theme of making some Japanese warriors as Oni or part Oni. I'm gonna lead on part Oni for Tomoe.
