Character Name: Maruso Michiya
Biography:
Quote:Age:30 (estimated, no birth documents exist)
Place of birth: Unknown
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 rejoined the Blood Dragons. 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. 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 the first ten or so years of her life on Kyoto base in the Chugoku system. She didn't really knew her mother, as she had vanished, or worse, right after her birth. However, the Blood Dragons at the time, were a very tight family and she was always taken care of. Her father, when not on combat patrol, spent his time with her. From an early age, she was taught traditional martial arts. One of the engineers on Kyoto, Kasumi, passed all her knowledge about firearms to Michiya. By the age of twelve, she had the knowledge and training to be as lethal as her father, if not more. However, he never really brought his daughter into the "family business". Tadashi made everything in his power to keep Michiya from the harsh and onforgiving reality around them. He even left the Blood Dragons, an offense that is not taken lightly.
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 pinacle 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 under by the BHG and by extent, the Core, the whole operation was lead 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 non-compatible with life, somehow, they both recovered fully within the week. Being worried about his daughter, Tadashi resigned his position and they returned to Kusari, where he joined the Gas Miners Guild
In her spare time, she went by the name "Hiasobi" as a elite mercenary. The job paid very handsomely, but she most did it for the thrills. Being the adrenaline junkie she is, she did all sorts of highly illegal things.
Recent events
When they returned to Kusari, Michiya could really cope with spending her time in an old Gas Miner and went to seek her own fortune throught 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 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 it's 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.
Now
Michiya had acquired a surplus naval fighter, which she had 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. 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 right, the only choice she could make. She was on the run, with no friends and no family insight. It was past time she put the loner life behind her and did something meaningful with her life. Even if that meant becoming a fugitive in her own home.
