Background

The Kusari Sleeper Ship lands on New Tokyo- 5 A.S. - 100 A.S.

Shortly after planetfall, the Planners decided to restore the title of Emperor as the leader of the Kusari government after centuries of figurehead status. Strong and absolute leadership was needed to rebuild their civilization. The political maneuvering was intense. There were two rivals - Masamune Samura and Yosai Hideyoshi. Ultimately, Hideyoshi won. As a compromise, Samura was offered the presidency of the corporation that would rebuild the industrial might of the Kusari people from scratch. He accepted, and Samura Heavy Industries was incorporated, the first of the two great Kusari industrial conglomerates that dominate commerce in the region to this day.

100-817 A.S.
By 100 AS., Samura had constructed the Yamamoto Shipyard and established its reputation as the premier shipbuilder in Kusari. Over the next several centuries, Samura expanded its gas mining operations throughout Kusari space, began regular trading with the other houses, and perfected the construction of polymer hull panels and shielding. Samura's contracts to construct ships for the Kusari Military remain highly lucrative, while its commercial transports almost entirely dominate that sector. Throughout its history, Samura Heavy Industries has exhibited many of the traits of its founder: methodical, implacable, slow to change, quick to anger.

Recent News - 817 A.S.
Samura Industries, one of Kusari's 'Keiretsu' Sprawling industries that control whole companies across Kusari.
Shinjuku Station, the Corporate Headquarters for the Sprawling industrial complex known as Samura. The history of Samura is deeply intertwined with the Kusari Shogunate, it's ruling body. Samura holds key contracts for the Construction of Kusari Navy and Terraforming operations in the Tau-Borderworlds, and previously held the exclusive rights for the distribution of valuable resources produced by the Gas Miners Guild (GMG). However, Because the agreement with the GMG has recently expired, Samura faces fierce competition for the GMG's business archrival Kishiro Technologies. Samura is also engaged in a protracted disupute With Synth Foods over the race to feed the evergrowing expanding Kusari population.

A brief background and why you are interested in working for Samura Heavy Industries

I was born on planet New Toyko in 795AS, I pretty much lived a normal childhood life. But during the war with house Bretonia the economic situation for a young pilot such as myself were in a sort of dire position. Economic jobs and production because of the war lowered my chances of not getting a good paying job, and even possibly being forced into service of the Navy. So I flew of to Rheinland in hopes for better economic future. Things were well for the time being, but as always things change. And now with the war over I have decided to return to my homeland to see I can possibly have a chance of getting some job that is more then enough to help keep me afloat.

Konnichiwa!

It is unfortunate to hear about your past economic troubles, though surely Samura will be able to turn that run of bad luck around. Having experience is good, especially given the recent boom in resource exploitation we have been undertaking. If you could send me a message directly, I will ensure you can get fully set up and ready to go on Planet Tomioka.

  I used to haul oxygen for a small mining company in Hokkaido.
  Before it was bought out by a larger corporation.
  
• A brief background and why you are interested in working for Samura Heavy Industries
  Well when the mining company was bought out i refused to work for the corporation that had bought them out. So i began doing freelance work. But i missed the safety and comradery that came with working with a company.
