Iori Tanaka was born to a pair of loving parents who wanted nothing but the best for their child. Unfortunately, those parents were also SINless, so just keeping a roof over their heads was challenging. Her parents did their best to shield her from the truth of their lives, but as she got older, she began to feel the nearly overwhelming stress of their lives. But even that kind of family life was taken from her. Hate groups target her parents, and many others like them. Many lives were lost, families destroyed, and children orphaned. She was one such unlucky child. She can remember calling for her parents after everything settled. Nobody would help her because of her very existence. A child, left alone, to fend for herself. People like her were easy pickings for early ganghood. | Iori Tanaka was born to a pair of loving parents who wanted nothing but the best for their child.

Goals
Live to the next day, drink a lot of booze, and find the occasional company of a bed warming companion.
Background
Iori Tanaka was born to a pair of loving parents who wanted nothing but the best for their child. Unfortunately, those parents were also SINless, so just keeping a roof over their heads was challenging. Her parents did their best to shield her from the truth of their lives, but as she got older, she began to feel the nearly overwhelming stress of their lives. But even that kind of family life was taken from her. Hate groups target her parents, and many others like them. Many lives were lost, families destroyed, and children orphaned. She was one such unlucky child. She can remember calling for her parents after everything settled. Nobody would help her because of her very existence. A child, left alone, to fend for herself. People like her were easy pickings for early ganghood.
Having been left alone, she clung to the only people who had been willing to take her in. A small, up-and-coming gang, made up entirely of metahumans who were abandoned in the wake of Japan's fall so many years ago. Being an Oni, she reached maturity quickly, and puberty hit her hard. She grew to be strong and durable, and the bosses liked that. What started as a young girl who'd collect protection pay, turned into an enforcer. By this point, things had already started getting better in Japan for everyone, Metahumans included. But by that point, it was far too late for most of her group. And though change was happening all across Japan, People in places like hers, still got targeted by racism from other humans and cops. Though she recognized at that time, that not all humans were like that, she was of the mentality that it was safer for her to assume all humans were hateful of metahumans.
The family of Oni weren't all that respected by those outside of their community. least of all the Yakuza. WHich made it all the more stress induicing when it became apparent that the Yakuza had their eye on this Oni crew. They made it quite obvious that they wanted nothing to do with their kind. But the Oni gang had proven time and again to be able to preotect their own, from outsider, from other gangs and punks, and even the Yakuza. It was the Yakuza that gave them the most grief, mostly the young upstarts that were often proven wrong when they though they could take on an Oni by their lonesome.
It eventually got to a poiont where even the Yakuza had to recognize their prowess, and a deal was struck. They'd be accepted into the fold, allowed all the same benefits, and even given resources to set up their own home office. However, the Yakuza reps made it quite obvious that they'd never truly be Yakuza. And if it came down to it, no one would help them. A very foreboding situation.
Her life changed for the second time during a meeting. By this point, she hadn't risen in the ranks much higher than what she already had. But, due to her reputation as a brutal fighter, she'd become trusted to escort higher ranking members of the gang and higher ranking Yakuza that wanted extra muscle. This meeting was meant to get them formally recognized as a Yakuza family among by the Yakuza leaders, or so it seemed. This meant they'd have to play nice with other gangs, but otherwise maintain their existing territory. And it seemed like things were going well enough. She didn't like how it was playing out one bit. It was almost like over night the Yakuza were being overly nice and chummy for the last while. That all changed when a plan in the works was sprung. Many of them were taken down. All high ranking members first, bosses first, going on down the line until they were at people like her. Fortunately, she had advanced warning by the time they got to her and a few others she had been hanging with at a karaoke bar.
Iori and her companions were forced to fight their way out and get out of the territory. A task that wasn't easy. But once out, it was a matter of making their way to the nearest coastal city. Once there, it was a matter of burning their existing fake SINs, going where they wanted to go, and meeting contacts on the other side to get new SINs. They didn't tell one another where they went. They abandoned their old lives, choosing to start new ones.
She came to Seattle, got her new SIN, and started her new life. It started with smaller jobs doing this, taking that here. And graduated to a short lived job as a bouncer. When that job ended due to the club getting shut down, she fell into a slump that could only be filled with alcohol at the time. Her life changed again, this time for the better, when she picked a fight with someone, during a drunken wander, after having hit up 3 different bars. She easily got her butt whooped, and was then dragged back to his place. Where she woke up with a bad hangover to the smell of coffee hitting her nose, and the sight of the troll who had kicked her butt. After being convinced that they hadn't slept together the previous night, he made sure she was alright before sending her on her way. She happened to run into him again, and the two struck up a small conversation. She was in need of money, and it was getting to a point where she was barely able to afford even to keep her landlord from getting up her butthole about the rent. Having fought her, he knew she could probably handle herself in a fight. Even as drunk as she was.
Having been told to meet him the following night, she was led into an underground fighting ring. While it had rules, death and injury were possible. After the first fight, she made enough to pay her rent for a couple months and, equally importantly, to keep up with her Hurlg addiction, one that she had been forced to slow down on considerably. Several fights later, she's able to keep up a decent lifestyle in a cheap little apartment in her little section of Redmond with a few extra comforts. Several more fights later, she was pulled aside for her first run, a run that really tested her abilities. In the end, she had proven to be useful beyond just being a fighter. This is the life she lives now. All she has to do is not gain any unwanted attention, and her current simple life will remain secure.
