Apply to the True Sons of Kusari

[Nika]

Name: Yui Tokugawa Age: 26 Place of Birth: Planet Honshu

History: A young upstart celebrity who's been making herself a name under the guidance of a major PR agency who secured her several warm-up roles at bigger stars' concerts one all for herself; excitement for it wasn't overwhelming but some loyal fans still bought out the tickets in advance; it was still a minor performance in a hall that could fit no more than a thousand visitors at once. It is at one of those performances had she attracted attention of a covert Dragon agent. For him, coming in contact with her was a trivial matter, so before long, Tokugawa found herself an accomplice in his scheming. He leaked her agency private performance orders from high-profile corporate figures which then fell victims of a casualty.

But several such events were deemed too much of a coincidence by the State Police and Kempeitai who launched an investigation
into these murders, so Tokugawa had to be evacuated off world and to Dragon's home. All where she'll get to perform in the foreseeable future is Kyoto and Ryuku, but she's found herself quite engaged with helping to streamline the bureaucratic side of day-to-day affairs of the Dragons - with the recommendation of an anonymous agent who never disclosed his identity.

[img=250x250]Picture[/img] Name: Ryuuko Kazehime Age: 29 Place of Birth: Planet New Tokyo

---

History:

Born in the heart of Kusari, New Kyoto, Ryuuko Kazehime was the daughter of a fallen Kusari military officer who had once served with distinction in the Imperial Navy. However, as Kusari became increasingly controlled by the corrupt corporations and their military arms, Ryuuko ’s family, once proud samurai, became casualties of a government that no longer valued the honor and traditions of their forefathers.

At a young age, Ryuuko ’s world was shaped by the ideals of the samurai—a warrior’s path of discipline, respect, and an unyielding sense of duty. Her father, Hiroshi Kazehime, despite his disgrace, continued to train Ryuuko in the ancient martial arts of the Kazehime-ryu, a swordsmanship style that had been passed down for generations. Yet, it was not only the blade that shaped young Ryuuko’s future, but also the harsh reality of life in Kusary.

When Ryuuko was just fourteen, her family was pushed to the brink of ruin by the very government her father had once fought to protect. The Kazehime name was tarnished by political intrigue and betrayal, and Ryuuko father, stripped of his military rank, became a bitter shadow of his former self. But Ryuuko , like her ancestors, was not one to accept defeat. She quickly grew to despise the corrupt Kusari regime and the corporate-controlled government that oppressed her people. The once-noble samurai traditions were being erased, and the honor that her family once stood for seemed lost forever.

Though Ryuuko became a skilled assassin, executing covert missions for private contractors with ruthless precision, her true passion lies in the freedom of the stars. Ryuuko views space as a place of honor and escape, where she can challenge both her enemies and herself. Her abilities as a hitokiri became respected, but it is her piloting that sets her apart—combining the deadly grace of her blade with the swift, fluid movements of her vessel in a deadly dance.

Now, Ryuuko Kazehime, the "Bloodthirst of Kusary," fights for the future and the freedom of the Kusari people, with both katana and sheer will in hand. Her name is whispered among allies and enemies alike, as both a symbol of the ancient samurai way and a force of rebellion against the corporate tyranny that plagues her world.

She has become a deadly warrior, but she knows that, in the end, only the shed of blood can provide the freedom and redemption she seeks.

What made you interested and why do you want to join:

Ryuuko Kazehime wishes to join The True Sons of Kusari because their cause resonates with her very spirit. The True Sons of Kusari are not simply rebels; they are warriors fighting to reclaim Kusari’s honor and restore the rightful Shogun. After watching the decay of Kusari’s true traditions, Ryuuko could no longer stand by while her people were enslaved by the greed of the corporations and the military-industrial complex. The True Sons of Kusari offer her a chance to fight for something greater than herself—a chance to defend her family’s legacy, restore the way of the samurai, and bring down the corrupt government that tarnishes her homeland.

Ryuuko’s skills with a sword and as a pilot are her way of continuing her ancestors' legacy of resistance. She views The True Sons of Kusari not just as a group to join but as the last hope for Kusari’s future. She believes that together, they can overthrow the system that enslaves their people and bring true honor back to Kusari. For Ryuuko, this isn’t just a war; it’s a fight for redemption.

Pledge your loyalty to The True Sons of Kusari:

Ryuuko pledges her absolute loyalty to The True Sons of Kusari, for they are the only ones who embody the true samurai spirit—honor, duty, and resistance against oppression. She fights not for wealth or power, but for the freedom of Kusari and the restoration of its ancient ways. Ryuuko has made her vow: she will stand with The True Sons of Kusari through every battle, every raid, and every mission, until Kusari is free from the corrupt hands that hold it in chains.

If it requires blood to cleanse the system, Ryuuko is willing to spill it. She knows that her path is one of sacrifice, but she believes in The True Sons of Kusari’s cause and their vision for Kusari. She will follow them into the heart of battle without hesitation, for the cause is just, and the legacy of her ancestors demands it. To The True Sons of Kusari, Ryuuko offers her sword, her starfighter, and her life.

Name: Mara Hoshiko Age: 20 Place of Birth: Kyoto

---

History: Mara came into the world struggling from the beginning. Her mother died when she as just 5 years old, and her father was a known political opposant of the current situation in Kusari. He was haunted by all agencies and had to raise Mara as good as he could, but raising a child and being hunted by everybody, while still making sure you stick true to you morals, comes at a cost. At that was Mara's morals and sanity. She grew up removed from friends, only her father and his friends each one of them being colder then the next and she grew up in the spirit of hate. When she got old enough she managed to turn into what her mother ultimately feared. A better version of her father, more convicted, more dangerous and more thirsty for change.

Name: Nagisa Kouzuki Age: 22 Place of Birth: Kyoto

---

History: Nagisa hails from a long line of warriors who fought as Blood Dragons since it's conception. For generations they have fought to rid Kusari of it's corruption, and set it free from the control of the keiretsu. Young, brash, and eager to prove herself, Nagisa is the latest in her line to take up arms for the Blood Dragon cause. From her youth, she trained in all arts of war, and once her training was complete, she threw herself into battle.

For years she has fought against her enemies, yet she could see no visible progress made in their fight. Perhaps they had too many enemies, or perhaps they weren't motivated enough in the cause. She later learned of a cell of Blood Dragons called the "True Sons of Kusari." She once fought beside them to take down a large Hogosha convoy carrying artifacts, escorted by a Corsair fleet. They seemed to have the conviction and drive to overthrow the government, and free Kusari of it's corruption. Most of all, they still held on to their honor. With blessings from her family, she decided to take the chance to join.
