Ketsurui-Chinomai Minori
Species & Gender:	Nekovalkyrja Female
Organization:
Occupation:	Senator for the Yamatai Star System
Rank:	Former Taisho
Current Placement:

Minori has almond-shaped eyes that are red with gray streaks in them (appearing red overall), pale white skin, and crimson hair. She is thin and weighs only 41 kilograms (just over 90 pounds). She is also short, standing only 150 cm tall (4' 11“).

She tends to be cautious, practical, and professional.

Minori's hobbies include singing, baking, styling hair, giving massages, drawing sketches of people, and swordfighting. Minori is a skilled fighter with sais. She likes sleeping in, spending too much time in the bath, Asian cuisine, and being hugged over bows and handshakes. She dislikes warm weather, polluted places like Nepleslia, urban cities, guns, having to meet strangers more than she has to for her job, and hates all insects. Originally her only goal in life was to make Yui happy and she would do anything Yui commanded, but Yui eventually gave her freedom and she has grown into her own person.

Minori was created via Hemosynthetics by Ketsurui Yui in YE 17 to serve as Yui's personal servant. She was initial a type of artificial, enhanced human (basically a Human) with the ability to communicate telepathically. She was programmed with many things to begin with and was also a quick learner. During her early life she was constantly at Yui's side, feeling that she owed her life to her master. She was suspicious of anyone but her creator.

Minori was a servant and daughter of Ketsurui Yui prior to the formation of the Star Army of Yamatai. When the Grand Star Army was formed in YE 21, Yui drafted Minori into it. Minori quickly rose through the ranks as the newly-formed military struggled to fill high-level positions. By YE 24, she had attained the rank of Taisho, the highest rank in the Star Army.

During the Second Draconian War (June 2006), Minori was the Commander of the Yamatai Reserve Fleet and had the rank of Taisho.

As head of Star Army Personnel, Minori's rank was administratively reduced to Chujo based on the structure of the Star Army, since personnel did not command its own fleet of ships, but with pay of a Taisho. During this time she changed bodies to a Nekovalkyrja, Type 33.

In YE 41, Minori reached 20 years of service to the Star Army. The rumor was Minori plans to retire in YE 42, which would get her in the “Taisho with over 21 years of service” pay bracket, which is the highest in the Star Army. In that case, she would get a retirement payout of 4,081,500 KS. This turned out to be correct as after the horrific losses of the Third Battle Of Nataria she decided to retire and did so in YE 42.
