Name:Ayane Hayashi Born: June 1st, 800 AS on Planet Denver Age:24 Gender:Female Description: 5'7" 145 lbs, Brown Hair, Hazel Eyes. Background: University on Planet Denver, 2 Years in a GC Strikecraft Squadron Current Affiliation:Golden Chrysanthemums Current Assignment: Intelligence Agent
Ayane Hayashi was born on Planet Denver to a first-generation Kusari immigrant father (Ishida Hayashi) and a Libertonian mother (Kate Morris). Ishida lost his job with Samura in 797 and - disenchanted with the male strongman corporate culture at both Kusari corporations - found a job with Ageira Technologies on Planet Denver. Ishida met Kate on Denver, and Ayane was born one June 1st, 800 AS.
Ayane was priveleged to have been provided with an excellent education. From an early age, Ayane had her sights set on becoming a Libertonian Intelligence Officer. By the time she began attending University on Planet Denver in 818 AS, she was already extensively well-read on Sirius History and had her civilian small-craft pilots license. She studied both history and mechanical engineering in preparation to become an officer in the Liberty Navy.
Ayane had always been interested in the feminist ideology of Matsuda. She loved the idea of a meritocracy, and secretly felt that if a Republic was always going to be dominated by groups of strongmen, it might be better to give up some power to a benevolent authoritarian government to ensure everybody could reach their full potential. Ayane was smart enough to keep such feelings to herself.
Students from Kusari were a common sight at the University on Denver, and the ever-curious Ayane became friends with a group of them shortly after her arrival. Upon finding out that the group was involved with the Golden Chrysanthemums, Ayane became exceptionally curious. She found out that many young women in Kusari idealized Libertonian society, believing it was closer to the meritocracy proscribed by Matsuda. While Ayane knew her father, with his personality, had done much better in Liberty than he would have done in Kusari her own experiences had taught her that Liberty was far from the vision on the propaganda posters, and definitely no more a meritocracy than Kusari.
As Ayane grew closer to the Sisterhood girls over the course of her university experience, she began to take part in some of their rituals: including using cardamine regularly. Ayane began to question her allegiance to Libertonian society, and became intrigued by the idea of using her knowledge and skills to help create the perfect society she had wanted to believe she already lived in growing up. During her 3rd year in school (821 AS), Ayane began making clandestine trips to Kusari to meet up with Sisterhood contacts. She began training on Chrysanthemum fighter craft while finishing up her degree, and upon graduating in 822 AS, she traveled to Ainu to fly in a Blossom squadron.
After gaining two years of combat experience in both Blossom and Orchid strikecraft from 822-824, Ayane applied to an intelligence squadron based on Ainu Depot. Currently, she is flying intelligence-gathering missions throughout Sirius, gaining information on the combat capabilities of current and potential adversaries for Sisterhood operations..

Shortly before turning 28, Kiko moved to an independent agent role with the Sisterhood. For the past three years, Kiko has been choosing to partake in Sisterhood operations in and around the Crow Nebula, because it reminds her of her home in Honshu
While not engaged in active combat missions, Kiko primarily flies GC transport vessels - legal and otherwise. Due to her extensive combat experience, however, she is often tapped to fly combat transports. Kiko can often be seen piloting the Serenity-class Kiku or the Akegata-class Keshiku.
In her days as a squadron commander, Kiko used the advanced communications, electronics warfare, and AWACS capabilities on a Hachiman-class gunboat - the Maikoa - to allow her squadron to consistently achieve tactical dominance on the battlefield. Kiko still privately maintains the Maikoa, and the ship flies fairly frequent patrols around areas of strategic interest to the Sisterhood.
