Why you want to join our cause: To uphold and restore the honor of our emperor, and by extension,
the Empire of Kusari.

Specific skills or traits: I have led many a strike force through the Tau's, both before the war with Bretonia, during, and after, fighting Outcasts and now Gauls. I can hold my own using a variety of snubcraft, pack a punch in a bomber or even fly a capital ship, if the need be. Versatility and perseverance are key strategies for fighting a larger foe, much like how we fight to protect our home against the influences of Gallia.

A biography of you:

I was born and raised, like many in my family over the generations, on a military base. In my case, this was Matsue Base in Hiroshima. I was enrolled in various schools from a young age to teach me every skill a modern pilot and commander would need in this day and age. When I came of age, I enlisted in the Naval Fores, and worked my way up the ranks. I fought in the Hydrogen Clouds of the Sigma's and the Rocky fields of the Tau's, outcasts everywhere, among other scum and pirates. Before long, Bretonia started making unsubstantiated claims over territory that was rightfully property of the Kusari Empire. Eventually, war broke out and my squadron, well experienced in fighting through the domain of the Tau's, stood strong at the front of every assault, until we had almost reached Planet Leeds itself. However, just as my squadron was pulled back from the Smog Clouds, the Gallic Navy appeared behind our supply lines. The fighting was hard, harder than the Bretonians, and our lines started to break. The politicians back in New Tokyo may have given up on our Emperor, but I and my squadron never will. The Empire has lost it's way, and only by removing the Gallic influence and restoring honor to Kusari can we return the Empire to its former glory.
