Bio: Kohaku was born on Planet Kyushu to Jirou Ueda, a Kusarian, and Kimberly Ueda, a Bretonian. Kohaku's time with her parents was short lived, as they were arrested for large scale smuggling when she was 6. Instead of putting Kohaku into foster care, she was transported to a third party research station for a social experiment. Unknown to her until she was released, Kohaku was studied as a BretKusarian raised without either culture. She lived a relatively normal life, basic education and a low paying job. However, when she was 18, the station was attacked by a group of Gaians. They decided to let Kohaku go since she was not official staff on the station, but because she did not have anywhere to go, she stayed with a Freelancer who helped with the raid. For the six months on the ship, Kohaku became good friends with the captain Milly. Being a Freelancer, Milly made some enemies who wanted vengeance. As she passed through the Cortez system, Milly's Ahoudori came under attack from pirates with a grudge. Hiding in her room and staying as quiet as possible, Kohaku was forced to listen as the pirates brutally slaughtered the crew as Milly and her daughter abandoned ship. Kohaku managed to make her way to the bridge, where she vented the hallways. As the last person alive on board, Kohaku stayed hidden until a Navy Patrol came and moved the ship back to Liberty. When she got back, Kohaku applied for the bounty board, and started working for Liberty. Most people do not view freelance work as honorable, nor is it as stable as a 'real' job, so Kohaku decided that the Liberty Navy would be a perfect choice.
