History


Date of Birth: December 25th, 1953
Home: Hachinohe, Aomori Prefecture, Honshu Island, Japan
Family: Oka Yohachi and Okura Taira (parents); Tokuda Basho (yakuza alias), Ogata Takafumi (zaibatsu alias)
Awakening: Preordainment (grew up an orphan after parents abandoned him in a northern Japanese city; kidnapped by the Go Kamisori Gama while still a ragamuffin child and raised as ninja on the Reiryu Clan's secret Hokkaido estate; he didn't seem like he'd Awaken, but turned out to be a late bloomer: during his more academic training, he experienced satori that revealed the extent and need for financial power and influence in the clan, a role he could and must play), 1975
Mentor: Kurowashi
The Test: Trial by Combat (he finished his later stages of training, proving years of self-didactic skills paid off, a rarity among his kind)
Comrades: Katte, Doku, Gyousei, Kagi, Kamen, Nawa, Washime, Josei, Uryo, Senkai, Tohi, Saimin, Chiya, Hitsume, Sora, Joho, Nekoko
Key Event #1: Treachery (deployed first to Sapporo, where he infiltrated various investing financial corporations with Zaibatsu ties, using his magick to work his way up the corporate ladder)
Key Event #2: War (while maintaining his corporate influence, Aburami began to branch out into manipulating local yakuza organizations, too, often by stepping in to supplant gang members he carefully pruned out and assassinated)
Key Event #3: Treachery (he eventually put together a quasi-cabal team of fellow Reiryu, some Awakened and some not, to assist him achieving wealth and influence, both for himself in Sapporo and the clan at large)
Transition: Reassignment (but the clan elders determined that Aburami was too tied up in Sleeper business and decided to transfer him to the Reiyari cabal in America, forcing him to virtually start his long climb upwards over again while serving the interests of the clan more directly; he especially worked with Katte, who he put under thumb after catching her attempting to steal some of the priceless art relics in his new house)

Katte



Weakness
$$$Genkin$$$


Aburami's earliest memories are of abject poverty and homelessness. It's made him too centered on the acquisition and hoarding of wealth and money.

Likelihood of Corruption


Average.

Without Washime and Nekoko to watch over him, Aburami would likely fall to Yomi corruption sooner than most Reiryu. Mikaboshi and his ilk are especially likely to target him, or would if he didn't serve under powerful leaders who know what to look for in spiritual corruption.
