Background

Toki Nobunaga hates his name, a lot. Its a memory of a distant past thats lost to time now, a time where his family lived as part of their village, a happy time. Nestled high in the mountains of his home planet, the village Tsurui was a quiet place. Mostly consisting of farmers and hunters the village prided itself on independence. This pride extended to the tradition of producing some of the finest warriors of the region. Their solitude and fierce independence was thought to be the catalyst to generating these exceptional warriors.

Toki's parents had been a part of an honourable Clovoc of warriors who practiced swordsmanship and duelling. They where masters of acrobatics, the sword, and thrown knives. For centuries those skills had been passed down the generations, many mock battles had being won thanks to the unmatched bravery of such determined warriors.

But in a devastating blow to Toki slavers took that entire village, brutally dealing with any who resisted while the rest where sold to criminals all across the galaxy. It happened over a single night when Toki was just 9 years old. Large ships screamed in and a veritable army disembarked to tear the village apart. Everyone who didn't resist was captured and sold.

Karasu is what he calls himself now, translated to basic it means Crow and was the animal his town associated with misery and suffering. His mother, father, brother and himself all ended up the property of a Pantoran crime boss here on Torque, in Torque City. Min Iggson, the Pantoran, had begun his career running a smuggling racket. But quickly branched out into drugs, slaves and piracy. His exceptional personal skills and deep pockets allowing him to elude the local law for years. As his empire grew to be sector wide he lived the life of luxury.

Karasu and his family where purchased as exotic entertainment, an unusual species with a flair for acrobatics, the entire family performed a death defying act involving stunts and risk taking. Karasu was the knife thrower and a muscle man, regularly risking life and limb to entertain Min's guests... until the local Imperial Moff decided they had had enough.

After the Pantorans illegal activities disrupted the Imperials one too many times they set up a sting. In a single night the ISB deconstructed Min's entire operations, they took the crime lord and any other aliens and put them to work in various Resettlement Camps, all his assets where seized, all his funds taken. Overnight he became nothing. Karasu didn't care for that, he was happy to see the cruel Pantoran receive his comeuppance.

But the Imperials treatment of Karasu's family was another matter, this was what made Karasu angry. When the Imperials raided Min's luxurious house all the "non human" servants where taken straight to these blasted camps for a different kind of slavery. His family, that had stuck together through the darkest of times when the slavers originally captured them, was now ripped asunder, torn from each other with no possible way to regroup. Karasu was forcibly separated from his family by the Imperials, Karasu's parents and brother were each sent to different camps, or at least that's what Karasu hopes happened.

Karasu would find them, reunite them, and squash the Empire in the process. With that goal Karasu had been preparing to break out of the camp, so far his plan was to make a break for the forests during the middle of the night then find a safe place to shelter and hide while he raided and scavenged. He had a few days food and all his clothing stuffed into a duffel bag. But best of all he even had a compact shovel, stolen from the Imps, to use for building a more robust survival shelter.

Except now the Imperials where fast forwarding his plan, it looked as though they planed to terminate this entire camp... it was time to leave now. Hopefully he could find an escape path out of the camp, possibly with a stolen vehicle, otherwise on foot. No matter what though he needed to escape. So duffel bag in hand, cloak around him, he was making his way through the camp towards what he hoped would be a safe exit.

With his pure determination to succeed Crow was certain he would be able to reunite his family.

Motivation

Reuniting his family is Karasu's primary motivation, its what his life is now dedicated to achieving. As a secondary goal he would like to bring down the Empire and their affiliated groups. Slavery is something he is hugely opposed too, so freeing others from slavery has a lot of meaning too. He to wants to live independently, with his family, returning to the isolated farming life of his youth... but that is a far off goal.

Karasu was once very honourable, his beliefs growing up where that a fight should be fair and that death was to be embraced. Unfortunately the way has been lost since his family where captured and put into slavery. For now he fights viciously and without remorse, fearing death as it would end his quest for a family reunion. Perhaps one day he will receive guidance and return to his honourable ways.
