I was born on Planet New Tokio, in the heart of Kusari’s golden city: a place brimming with wealth, power, and the oppressive weight of tradition. My father, a small-time criminal, was always gambling away our future, borrowing money from his Hogosha contacts, the men who claimed to protect the Kusari commoners but were really nothing more than thugs in tailored suits. His gambling took everything from us, and when he couldn’t repay his debts, I became the price.
At the age of eighteen, my father sold me to a life I had no choice in. He handed me over to the gangs that run high-end nightclubs of New Tokio; places where the rich and powerful come to indulge in whatever they desire, and where women like me are nothing more than playthings. I danced in the shadows, a prisoner in glittering cages. My life became a blur of flashing lights, music, and the hunger in the eyes of those who thought they could do whatever they wanted with women like me. The more I danced, the more I saw the truth: Kusari wasn’t just a system that oppressed us. It was a system that depended on the exploitation of women to maintain its delicate illusion of order and prosperity. The patriarchy is not just a vague concept: it is the bread and butter of New Tokio's elite and those below them.
It wasn’t until I met Akiko, my roommate and one of my fellow dancers, that I understood the true depth of what I was living in. Akiko had a fire inside her, one I hadn’t seen before. After working hours, in the little time we had for ourselves, she spoke of revolution, of a way to fight back. But it wasn’t until her life was stolen from her by a deranged rich Hogosha customer, that I truly understood. After Akiko was assaulted by him, and lost her life over something petty, in her little belongings I found a book:'Golden Chrysanthemums in Bloom' by Yuyu Matsuda.
The words in that book spoke to me in ways I never thought possible. Yuyu Matsuda had seen through the lie of the Kusari government and their corporate cronies, just as I had. The Golden Chrysanthemums were more than a resistance; they were a promise of something better, something free!
That day, I made a choice. I would not be a pawn anymore. I would become a weapon.
I stole a cache of credit-chips together with a bag full of Cardamine from one of my pimps. With the help of an underground network of Blood Dragon sympathizers, competitors of my former employers, I managed to flee New Tokio and find refuge at Kinkaku-ji Station, not far from the shrine of Amaterasu herself, where I could finally breathe free air again.
The first thing I did with the stolen credits was buy an old second-hand fighter. It wasn’t much, but it would be enough. I didn’t need luxury; I needed to fight. And now, every time I look out into the void, I see the stars as the ultimate symbol of freedom, and I know that my life, my future, is mine to shape.
I came here for one reason: to join the Gen'an. I’ve been waiting for a response. The Golden Chrysanthemums stand for everything I believe in now: freedom, equality, vengeance against the system that sold us all out! The Kusari government, with all its political games and its misogynistic ways did nothing for me or for women like me. They kept us down, and I’ve had enough!
My name is Saki Fujimoto. I was born to dance in chains. Now, I fight to shatter them.
Reasons for joining inRP: I am ready to take my place in GC ranks. I am ready to strike back at the heart of the empire that abandoned us. And if you’ll have me, I will fight to destroy the patriarchy that poisoned my life and the lives of countless women like me.
