Character Information
Freedom is crafted — one secret, one spell, one step ahead.
Summary
Once a sniper in the deep jungle and urban warzones, Kenji now walks the civilian shadows. Cold, calculating, and dry-witted, he's a compartmentalized man held together by memory, ritual, and duty. He's retired, but only on paper.
Goals
Short Term Goal
- Upgrade all his cyberware to Betaware
- Set up 3 safehouse across the city
- Fill his armory to the brim
- Create a state of the art altar to the Santa Muerte
Long Term Goal
- Set Up a Legacy Locker for Minji (1.000.000 ¥)
- Feel alive again
Background
[CONFIDETIAL DOCUMENT - AUTORIZED PERSONAL ONLY - SIGMA-BLACK CLEARENCE REQUIRED]
[#001 — PRIVATE SESSION — UNAUTHORIZED DUPLICATION PROHIBITED]
Narrative Significant Qualities
- Common Sense – A sniper doesn’t get to be wrong. Not about angles. Not about people. Kenji learned long ago to read a room the way he reads terrain — anticipate, adjust, survive.
- Perfect Time – It’s not luck. It’s control. When to breathe. When to squeeze. When to step in or step back. He doesn’t believe in fate — only windows.
- Sharpshooter – Kenji doesn’t miss. He remembers the name of the first person he didn’t miss. And the last. That’s why he still counts them.
- Strive For Perfection – Ritual is control. Control is survival. A clean shot, a clean uniform, a clean conscience — all require discipline. He still sharpens the knife he no longer carries.
- Records on File (UCAS) – He’s off the books — mostly. But the books still remember. His dossier is redacted, not erased.
- Striking Skin Pigmentation – A pale blue tone marks him as something other. In the field, it meant recognisability. In the city, it means questions.
- Thousand-Yard Stare 1 – He doesn’t blink at things that break most men. That’s not strength — it’s memory.
- Impassive – Stillness is not absence. It’s presence under control. Kenji doesn’t emote to explain himself.
- Antipathy – People expect warmth to mean kindness. Kenji doesn’t warm easy — but he shows up. He stays. And he remembers every name that mattered.
- Dependent (Inconvenience) – "He’s retired, not free. The pension helps, but it’s not enough — and he won’t let Minji or Allende carry the weight alone. He still picks up contracts, not out of duty, but out of love. A soldier’s job was orders. A father’s job is bills."

Appearance
Clothing
Aishar has a distinct preference for formal menswear, preferring amongst the options softer fabrics and lighter outfits when possible. It's rare to see him without a white or off-white button up shirt, and rarer still to see him in something like sneakers or t-shirts. Swears for Mortimer of London as a brand for affordable luxury, but favors Tir tailors for truly extraordinary pieces for occasions well deserving of the improved outfit
Matrix Persona
An empty, archmage robe, surrounded by orbs and other such arcane items

Character Plot Hooks
Here are characteristics of the character that GMs may take advantage of to add complications to runs, or to otherwise use when in use. If you want to use them in unrelated to runs, please ask first.
| Aspect | Information | Related Run(s) |
|---|---|---|
| Astralnaut Wannabe | He is just at the beginning of his wanderings amonght the many astral planes, ready to grow and evolve as a mage and as a person. He'd love to join in some metaplanar questing! | // |
| Rightful Ascendancy | The Rite of Progression traditionally takes place every 7 years, and the next one will be in 2092. This leaves Aishar to look into the other avenues to reclaim his title, either getting progressed by the Council of Princes, succesfully appealing his demotion as unlawful, or, as a plan B, absolutely ensure that in six years, he has all the ammo he can to win | // |
| Thirst for the Forbidden | He feels it in his bones. In his travells, hidden beyond the void and the gloom. In hushed voice, in the halls of magicians much greater then him. He wishes to udnerstand what the 4th world is, what it meant, and what it will mean | // |
