"Kotou Suyari has been a known affiliate of the Hogosha for approximately six years, though rumor suggests that many aggressive Hogosha actions recorded up to sixteen years ago may have been the work of this man. While being a well-documented supporter of the Imperial Government, Kotou prefers to keep himself shrouded in mystery, deceit, and questionable activities."
"Kotou Suyari is most well known as a Hogosha agent, performing various tasks that Hogosha lords require - most often involving assassination, destruction of target ships and buildings, disruption of political and diplomatic meetings, blackmail, smuggling, slavery, extortion, and protection of Hogosha officials. However, despite this generally subservient role, Kotou has created wealth, respect, and fear which rivals that of the Hogosha Crimelords - many of whom are reluctant to employ Kotou due to his aggressive and unpredictable nature."
"One account from various Hogosha members states that, after smuggling a shipment of artifacts into honshu, the Hogosha Boss that Kotou was working for chose to withhold payment for the task. The same night, that Hogosha leader and both of his bodyguards were found dead, the Boss beaten with the very artifacts that Kotou had been tasked with bringing into Kusari. The news report on the incident is shown below."
"Kotou Suyari was spotted leaving the Hotel shortly before Kusari State Police arrived on the scene, this image was taken by a lobby camera at the Hotel entrance:
"Little is known of Kotou's abilities, however. It has been rumored that he is descended from a long line of the Imperial Guard, and as such has been trained in Hand-to-Hand combat as well as with numerous close combat and firearm weapon types. Kotou is known to favor the use of poisons, explosives, and long-range weaponry when dispatching his targets, however, and as such there has never been enough evidence left to charge him for Murder or any other illegal activities."

"Kotou employs numerous underlings of his own accord, lending him credibility as a Hogosha Lord himself. One ship rumored to operate under his control is the Blue Eclipse, a Bumblebee-Class Kusari Transport which has been modified to create a personal luxury yacht and slave freighter. Additional rumors suggest that Kotou deprives captured Golden Chrysanthemum pilots of cardamine until they begin to suffer extreme withdrawals, and subsequently uses small doses of the drug to control them, making extremely obedient slaves willing to do anything to stave off the pain of withdrawal symptoms."

"Kotou Suyari maintains numerous contacts within Samura, Kishiro, and the Kusari Government, enabling him to gain unrestricted access to nearly any portion of Kusari in order to complete his assignments. Such political connections are common among the Hogosha, though these connections are generally maintained through bribery and fear. Kotou, rather than use these tools to create doors for himself, prefers to gain the honor and respect of these contacts, making them far more reliable as informants and agents. Here, Kotou is seen speaking with a high ranking representative of Kishiro Technologies, in a bar on New Tokyo:"
