Family:
Michiya's only living relative is her father Tadashi, who after a brief career with the GMG in 826 A.S., vanished. It is rumored he's dead. Tadashi, originally, was a Blood Dragon. His most active years were 814 - 817 A.S. when he flew under the NovaPG flag. As the subgroup slowly faded into oblivion, Tadashi slowly drifted away from Kusari. The former Dragon, operating where he did and doing what he did, had acquired the ability to outrun almost anything. Thus, he put his skills to good use and became a racer. His racing team, the Turbo Marlins, were ironically sponsored by the Bounty Hunters guild, who had hunted Tadashi not long ago. His career as a racing pilot was spectacular. It gave both him and his daughter the chance to tour almost all of Sirius. When his wife passed away, Tadashi took his daughter and went into hiding, effectively becoming ghosts. Michiya, being only a kid, was always by her father' side as he made sure to keep her as far away from the violent reality of the world they lived in. When Michiya turned sixteen, however, she decided it was time to take her life in her own hands. She, of course, followed her father's true nature and took on high risk high reward assignments all over house space.
Early life
Michiya spent her early years hopping around from base to base with her parents. Her father, when not on combat patrol, spent his time with her. From an early age, she was taught traditional martial arts. By the age of twelve, she had the knowledge and training to be as lethal as her father, if not more. Alongside that, Michya was a natural with a wrench. She spent considerable time with her aunt, Kasumi, who was actually in the business of scrapping ships for parts and selling them off. Michiya absorbed every bit of knowledge from Kasumi.
Teenage years
Michiya spent the majority of her teens onboard the Pathfinder, a highly modified Renzu Liner, owned and operated by the TMRT, the racing team her father flew for. The ship itself was the pinnacle of luxury, but it's docking bays were packed full of experimental technology and the best tools and equipment money can buy. As the team was sponsored by the BHG and by extent, the Core, the whole operation was led by Jessica Scarlet, a high ranking core member. Michiya was actually in line to replace the second pilot of the team, but during a training session in Dublin, she slammed her ship in an old mining rig. The collision obliterated her cockpit and ruptured her flight suit. It was namely Scarlet that saved her. While unclear what went down, both Scarlet and Michiya suffered hypothermia from being exposed to absolute zero temps. Some say Scarlet went for a space walk with nothing but her ankle mounted thruster packs and dragged the young girl back to the safety of the Pathfinder. Although their injuries were incompatible with life, somehow, they both made a full recovery within the year. Being worried about his daughter and having lost his wife not long ago, Tadashi resigned from his position and they returned to Kusari, where he used his connections to effectively disappear along with Michiya.
Recent events
When they returned to Kusari, Michiya couldn't really cope with spending her time on the ground and went to seek her own fortune throughout Sirius. She had earned some credits from racing and it was just enough to buy her an old freighter. The girl did not discriminate, she smuggled contraband for the highest bidder. No job was too dangerous or too difficult. Her skills were on point and her success rate was high enough to make a living out of it. One day, eventually, she picked the wrong job. She was tasked to smuggle a package from the Omegas to a warehouse located in a residential area on planet New Tokyo. The conditions were simple, don't get caught, don't stop anywhere, don't open the package. As luck would have it, her Grizzly was attacked and she had to make an emergency stop in Omicron Theta for repairs. Upon docking with the station, her ship set off all kinds of radiological alarms and she was quickly ordered to vacate both the station and the Freeport's no fire zone. In the following hours, she discovered the nature of her cargo - medium yield thermonuclear warhead with a simple nav unit attached to it. Upon reaching its destination it would trigger the bomb. The destination being a highly populated area, the death toll would be in the hundreds of thousands. Michiya did the only logical thing, contacted her father and they made sure to detonate the ship safely, away from any Planets or Stations. This brought an untimely end to Michiya's smuggling days.
Michiya didn't quit, though. She used her remaining scratch to acquire a surplus naval fighter, which she used to run escort duty for transports and freighters alike. No major infractions were recorded in the past three years and no significant accidents were flagged on her dossier. Her alter ego named "Hiasobi" was never found out. Currently, Michiya is flagged as missing or deceased by the Kusari Police. Her last known location was right next to Shikoku jumpgate in New Tokyo. The record states she was ambushed and her vessel was destroyed by a GC patrol.
However, the record could not be further from the truth. Not only Michiya was not dead, she actually was recruited into the ranks of the Golden Chrysanthemums.
In her eyes, this rag tag group, as it had seem at the time, had everything she ever wanted - Freedom, purpose and most importantly, the means to fight for what they believed in.
For her this was the only choice she could've made. She was on the run, with no friends and no family insight. Her father had disappeared yet again. It was past time she put the loner life behind her and did something meaningful. Even if that meant becoming a fugitive in her own home.
Now
Michiya rose through the ranks over the last two years. Her dedication to the cause has not gone unnoticed. Recently in 830 A.S., she received the rank of Shireigiku.
Despite this, she still is active and operates all around Kusari and deep into enemy territory as well. Michiya still volunteers everything there is a dangerous mission that involves smuggling cargo behind enemy lines. Hernature, as volatile and unpredictable as always, has provided quite a lot of near-death experiences for her, but taming her temper is not on the agenda.
She has recently acquired a top of the line gunship and overhauled the entire ship herself. Some say it's the fastest gunship in the entire sector. Whether that's true or not, remains a mystery.
