Summary
Whitehat is an Oni born on Yomi Island. A previous resident of the California Free State, he came to Seattle out of a desire to prove himself as a corporate decker, make some friends and practice his craft.
Goals
- Get hired by someone.
- Get better at singing whilst hiding a love of performing from the other runners.
Background
Akira was born to a pair of Oni based out of Yomi Island, who subsequently emigrated to CalFree as soon as they were able. Originally working under one of the Koborokuru lords of the island, Akira's parents worked very hard to instil in him a sense of honour and right and wrong.
Akira grew up with a little more money as his parents got relatively good jobs (his dad even started his own business that was promptly bought out by a larger corp) and gained an early interest in decking systems. His parents had taught him of the oppression that his people had suffered from Imperial Japan, and this only served to drive him to seek acceptance and a better life for himself and others like him. Even though things aren't as bad as they once were, he was exposed to a level of metaracism in CalFree, not least because of his unfair association with Imperial Japan (General Saito's regime is still fresh in the minds of everyone in San Fran, let's be honest).
Desperate to get himself a real SIN, but unable to really take a lot of the normal channels, Akira began decking hosts as soon as he had the hardware for it, and began leaving helpful tips for spiders to find...along with his CV. As you can probably imagine, that didn't exactly go well, and it led to his parents getting ventilated after Akira got Converged by GOD. Akira himself was very nearly killed as well. Striking out for the UCAS, he made contact with a fellow decker and fixer in the Metroplex named Marigold, and bought himself a damn Sneak program so that this hopefully won't happen again. Going under the runner name Whitehat (a nickname given to him as more of a tease than anything else by Marigold), he's still looking for that acceptance for himself and his people.
Whitehat still insists on leaving his icon all over everyone else's commlinks and hosts, hoping that eventually he'll get the friendly notice of someone in the infosec industry. He's very paranoid about being Converged again, and tends to be pretty meek and shy...insofar as an Oni can really fade into the background. In the meantime, running the shadows lets him really practice his craft, and fund his own little hobbies, like painting and acting. He's not very good yet and suffers from stage fright, but he's trying his best, honest!

Whitehat insists on leaving behind both his own Matrix icon, and an annotated list of vulnerabilities he found in your device or host. He phrases them in as friendly a way as possible, but it probably still comes across as really bloody annoying, especially if you just died because he broke your smart firing platforms. Asshole.

Appearance
Akira is a relatively tall but incredibly lanky Oni, with a pretty slight build (especially by the standards of his metatype) with light blue skin and an innocent, friendly smile that seems to ooze adorableness. He has bright yellow eyes and a few laughter lines, but he's almost always in a state of worry. He wears his deck slung over his shoulder, often in a satchel with a clear plastic face on one side
Clothing
Akira enjoys wearing everything from suits (when he's in job interviews) to shirts with funny puns on them. One of his shirts is double-sided, with the inside having a picture of Momotaro that he uses to frighten other Oni as a prank. He also tends to rock white sneakers and synth-leather or black jeans with a grey armoured jacket.
On operations, he also wears a ballistic mask, which is built to look like the more traditionally demonic Oni face. This is particularly fun when combined with the gas mask's integrated filters!
Matrix Persona
Whitehat's Matrix Persona appears as a Red Samurai, as drawn in a kind of Genndy Tartakovsky art style. His attack programs look like various traditional Japanese weapons (Tanto, Katana, Yari etc.)
