Background

Born: October 17, 2047 in Seattle, WA.

Mikoto's mother, Hokusai Chieko, is human and is the disowned daughter of the Oyabun for the Shotozumi-Gumi. Her father, Hokusai Yasuhiro, was an Oni and was the source of Chieko's disgrace. Chieko choose to go against her father's wishes and marry the man that she chose to marry, even worse in her father's eyes, he was a Metahuman. Cut off from her family and shunned by most of the Japanese neighborhoods, they eventually found themselves having to live in the Barrens.
Born human, Mikoto had a relatively normal childhood (as normal as any young girl could be in the Barrens) up until she was 11, when she went through Goblinization and became an Oni like her father. Even at that early age, she had already been forced to learn to defend herself, and after her change she doubled her efforts. She discovered that to many people of Japanese descent, she was both feared and respected rather than just hated, like Orcs or Trolls, and she began researching the folklore surrounding Oni. As she entered her teens she found that she was turning heads, and overheard people whisper things like "exotic" and "striking", about this time she stumbled upon some vintage video recordings of burlesque performance and she was fascinated. The combination of exotic beauty, power and performance drew her in and she found out all she could about the genre, going as far as trying to sneak into clubs that had burlesque shows. It was at that time she started encountering some of the members of the Shigeda-Gumi Yakuza, they ran one of the the clubs she would try to get into. It didn't take long for them to realize who she was and her usefulness to them, so they kept an eye on her, encouraged her to join the other dancers. One night they tried to get her to expand her repertoire and offer the services of a geisha, whereupon she flew into a rage. All the skills she had learned on the streets came into play and she took out most of the hired muscles in the room, only stopping when she had been knock unconscious. The men told the tale of the female oni going into a demon rage and that she would not stop fighting, and the story eventually reached the Oyabun. He already knew who she was and her usefulness to him because of her family, but he saw a new opportunity to use her to gain influence with the other Gumi, using her as a symbolic bodyguard. He gave to order that she was to be trained in other forms of combat, and she was brought in as a minor foot soldier. Her father died around the same time (street life and old age) and she inherited his katana. Her mother, distracted by the death of her husband was unaware of Mikoto's increased activity with the Yakuza until it was too late for her to stop it. Once she did find out, and after calming down, she sat Mikoto down an explained who her grandfather was, and why she had fled. Mikoto is now more driven to rise up the ranks of the Shigeda-Gumi and redeem herself in her Grandfather's eyes. For his part, the Shotozumi-Gumi Oyabun never stopped keeping tabs on his daughter, and subsequently his granddaughter, and although his hands are tied by tradition, he will bring considerable influence and power into play to make sure his granddaughter remains safe until the day he can formally accept her back into the family. After the rage incident Mikoto no longer works in the club run by the Yakuza, although she is still obligated to them, and has joined in a venture with a pair of Dwarven cousins to start up their own club.

Clothing

  • While at the club, Mikoto tends to wear skimpy synth-leather outfits. Ensembles of straps, buckles, feathers, sequins, lace, rivets, and spikes. When she isn't working, she dresses more practically, clothes that allow her to move rapidly when need be and offer some moderate protection. On the streets she adds a armored jacket to the outfit as well as her Samurai Mask. When she is called upon by the Yakuza to fulfill her obligations to them, she is often given a full set of body armor fashioned to look like Samurai armor that matches the mask. This last bit of armor is not hers to keep and it's only available to her when she's working for the Yakuza.
