Takazumi Tomiko
Tomiko is Ryu's elder twin, born just seconds earlier. As a daughter, she found her father, the Steel Shogun , had far more interest in her brother than in her. In her childhood she craved his attention desperately, but her desires meant little to the Takazumi elder as he raised Ryu to be his right-hand man and eventual successor. In her loneliness, Tomiko turned her attention to the arts, where she found solace in drawing and painting.
Her artistic talents seemed to know no bounds, and she rapidly learned skills of traditional Japanese painting (kaiga) and calligraphy (shodo). Wanting to expand her talents, she asked her father for a tutor to instruct her in the creation of Zen rock gardens (karesansui), at which she excelled. It was during the deep meditative trances creating such gardens induced that Tomiko learned of her other unique gift: the ability to foresee the future. By entering a meditative trance, Tomiko is able to catch glimpses of the future, which she records in a visual medium such as painting, drawing, or rock gardening. While in the trance, she has no idea what she’s experiencing, nor does she retain any recollection of her visions; the only evidence of them is found in the cryptic symbols and images of her art.
The Steel Shogun quickly realized the potential of his daughter’s gift, and he turned his attention to her after years of neglect. He used her visions to expand his criminal operations; he wouldn’t make any important decisions without consulting his daughter on what the future held.
Initially overjoyed by his attentions, Tomiko grew bitter when she realized it was only her precognition her father was interested in. She has grown even more bitter and angry in the years since and resents her brother intensely for the place he holds in her father’s heart. Yet, she continues to serve the Shogun faithfully, just as a good daughter should, and maybe one day he will realize exactly how important she is to the Takazumi-gumi.
Tomiko is a beautiful 22-year-old Japanese woman. She is 5’5” tall with a model-like figure, long black hair, and deep brown eyes. She tends to wear fashionably short skirts or one piece dresses accompanied with high heels and finished with a silk choker around her neck. She is almost constantly seen sucking on a small lollypop, something she knows her father despises.
