Okazaki Katsuo, (岡崎 勝雄, born May 23rd, 771 A.S.) is a prominent guild master of the Gas Miners Guild. Recognised within the ranks of the Guild for his martial nature and strong sense of honour, he is one of the few guild masters who actively and personally oversee the Guild's paramilitary service.
Katsuo is also known for his strong opinions on Guild politics and organisation, and has been known to involve himself in many political events, such as the signing of the Aomori Treaty of 818 A.S. during which he was a key negotiator for the GMG side.
Early life
Katsuo's life began on Planet Honshu, in the home of Kunisuke (邦輔) and Kotone (琴音). His father, Okazaki Kunisuke was a Kusari nobleman who enjoyed relative wealth from the proceeds of a small family company passed down to him by his father, and Katsuo's grandfather Munemitsu (宗光). The company provided small scale secure and anonymous transport of unique materials, objects or technology, an endeavour which required much attention from Kunisuke, leaving Katsuo at home and attending the best schools on Honshu.
Despite his benefit of excellent education however, young Katsuo, completely fascinated by the concept of space travel and the freedom from gravity, was determined to make it off the surface of the planet and into space. Eventually, shortly after his 18th birthday he managed to convince his father to hire him into the company, and began working as a part time freighter pilot. He continued to study aerodynamic engineering at Saitama University in the mean time.
