Daisuke Hayashi is a Japanese man who appears to be... well, in his mid-sixties. Exactly what he is, in other words. He is, however, extremely fit, and it shows. He's quite fatherly in his looks and expressions most of the time, and tends to wear a business suit or traditional Japanese clothing. If he's expecting trouble, he carries a katana at his side, but this isn't often nowadays.

Power Descriptions:

None. Daisuke Hayashi is simply a man. An extremely fit, and very skilled man.

History:

Daisuke was born into the Yakuza alongisde Takeshi, his twin brother. His father was fairly high-up in the Midori-gumi, one of the medium-sized syndicates, and he taught Daisuke and Takeshi all that he knew about leadership in the Yakuza, and the physical skills needed as well. Both siblings learnt quickly, and when they became old enough, joined the syndicate. While there was a degree of family connections involved with their rise, the fact of the matter is that Daisuke and Takeshi were both very skilled, and worked very well as a team. And along the way, Daisuke married Noriko Akiyama. In truth, things went very well for Daisuke in the early years, with his brother at his side, a beautiful wife (who soon bore him a daughter, Chiyoko Hayashi).

Then, five years after Chiyoko was born, Noriko was killed in an attack by Overthrow, while she was visiting a friend in Paris.

Daisuke mourned. Then he threw himself into rising up the ranks. Oh, he did it fairly, but his goal became to become the leader of the Midori-gumi. And have the resources to take his own revenge on Overthrow. And it paid off- by the time he was 54, Daisuke Hayashi was leader of the Midori-gumi. It would be a bitter victory. His daughter had become a physics student at Oxford, and during a visit to a particle accelerator there, she was caught in... an accident. The experience didn't kill her, but she was changed, now wielding cosmic energies, and she felt she needed to find out more about her new powers, and to find a purpose for having them. Daisuke let her go- he wouldn't have been able to stop her anyway, and he agreed with her on both counts.

In the past ten years, the aging man has turned his attention to the Midori-gumi. He has continued his work in bringing the syndicate into the modern age, and has kept an eye out for ways to hinder Overthrow. Both these activities have lead him to start expanding his organisation into Freedom City, with the Yakuza starting to muscle in to the protection business.

Personality & Motivation:

Daisuke is a fatherly old man with a hard edge that has become more apparent over time. First and foremost, however, he's a reasonable man. No, really- he doesn't hold grudges if you don't make it personal (if you, say, kill his wife, on the other hand...), always honors his part of a bargain, and most importantly to potential employees, doesn't kill people over failure. He holds no hatred for superheroes, and will often give them a tip-off if he receives information about 'distasteful activities'. That said, he's become more... ruthless since his daughter disappeared.

Powers & Tactics:

In combat, Daisuke uses his katana, only resorting to his gun if he has to. He tends to coordinate attacks, but in personal combat, it's quite apparent that 65 years has done little to decrease his fitness.

Ability total is 32pp, not 0pp (as much as we wish abilities were free...!). This is correct in the final pp tally, though.

Skills, similarly, add up to 22pp. This is correct in the final tally.

Final tally: 32+12+10+22+63= 139, not 140. Not a big deal on an NPC, of course.
