Tofuku Rin
Species:	Demilitarized Nekovalkyrja, Type 33
Gender:	Obligate Female
Organization:	Yamatai Senate
Occupation:	Representative
Current Placement:	Yamatai

Among the shortest of Nekovalkyrja, large glittering emerald green eyes, big fluffy red furred ears, and a lithe delicate form do much to impress an adorable character upon those who view her. The coal black skin, red hair, and the tapering onyx horn, now ornamental, remind of her past as an NH-17T, once one of the Empires most feared soldiers. Though lacking the capabilities that made her a lethal engine of death of the Army of Uesereya, and later the Star Army of Yamatai, her features, and mannerisms speak of nostalgia.

Though she moves with the unearthly grace of her kin, and has the smooth controlled motions of a long time soldier, she speaks with a soft voice and often has a smile for those she talks to. She is well known for her patience and habitual doting upon the younger generations of her kin, however she shares this kindness with all she meets be they citizens, or aliens to the Empire. At her core the belief that all deserve a chance at life and prosperity rings true.

Tofuku Rin was originally known only by a serial number¹⁾ during her initial manufacture and fielding as an NH-7b3 during the beginning of the Chaos Hive War, she served along her sisters in protection of Ayenee in the Army of Uesuereya along side forces from Feisar Arms, the “Gundarians,” and the Sceptered Black Claw. During this campaign she saw many of her sisters fall in battle, an event that at the time she merely assumed was normal.

Following the conclusion of the war, she returned home with those who had survived and in the interim was given the nickname “Rin” by a technician who doted on her. During this time she began to learn of the world around her including that there were people out there who weren't expected to plunge heedless into the embrace of death. This revelation came just in time for her second deployment in the Fourth Elysian War a conflict that saw her once again fighting engineered foes in the name of the Star Army.

Before the war could end however Rin was transferred into the 8th Draconian Fleet and was sent off to participate in the Second Draconian War newly transferred into an NH-17T body to aid in the war effort. She was one of the lucky ones to return home once again with stories to tell one functioning among many for the benefit and survival of their Empire.

Making it home in time to participate in the First Mishhuvurthyar War shortly followed by the Second Mishhuvurthyar War Rin finally earned a true name for herself after transferring to an NH-29 body almost immediately in YE 29 and serving aboard an Irim-class Heavy Gunship as a Warrant Officer. When the NMX threat was defeated, then Tofuku Rin transferred into the then new Nekovalkyrja, Type 33 body and served an administrative role before demilitarizing and retiring in late YE 35 after over a decade of service on the front lines against the Empire's foes.

At this point she turned her attention toward history, humanities such as psychology, sociology, and anthropology, and began pursuing a gentler career in civilian administration endeavoring to cultivate peace and prosperity in an effort to spare the younger generations the same horrors she had lived.

Newly elected in YE 38 to fill the post of Senator for the Veronica system she hopes to bring a positive influence to the Yamatai Star Empire at large endeavoring to strengthen the Empire in ways that would not needlessly cost them lives.

• Originally fluent in Yamataigo (邪馬台語) and Trade (language) she has taken the time after her retirement to download and familiarize herself with other languages in local space including Sharan, Ly'thir, Seraphim, Takavonai (Language), Azorean, and Abwehran. While by no means fluent she is capable of picking up common phrases and can ask simple questions without reference. Beyond this her training as a soldier over the years in the SAoY and its precursors have familiarized her with communication with a variety of digital and analogue communication methods.
• After a decade of combat against a wide range of foes, Rin considers herself well versed in the ways of combat having fought nearly enemy that her kind has ever faced and managed to survive. To this end she has experience with warfare, tactics, and survival in a myriad of circumstances and environments.
• With retirement giving a large amount of free time as a boon, Rin has taken to studying the behaviour and mannerisms of sapient life in the universe from the individual to the group level, taking joy in discovering the whys and hows of the mind. This knowledge is applied to her adminisrative work and civil service allowing her to help others even when they might not know how to help themselves.
• Used to preforming calculations needed to maintain ammunition stores, ration levels, and the trajectories of friendly and hostile munitions, Rin is extremely capable with math capable of solving complex calculations in seconds. These days however she uses her skills for accounting and paying taxes.
• A recreational swimmer for much of her life when possible, Rin has since moved on to taking diving lessons and frequently goes on dives off the coast of Fukuoka.
• Years of working with the technology present both on the ground for soldiers and the frequent interactions with Star Army vessels has given Rin a large if specific experience with technological systems. While technically competent she frequently voices complaints that civilian analogues simply don't have enough power and can be impatient while waiting for civilian computational systems to complete her assigned tasks.
• As a means of unwinding Rin has taken up varying forms of dancing, preferring the elegance of belly dancing, though she finds a good waltz more pleasing to the ear. In more recent years she has developed a fondness for the Virtual Collective Experience system and runs a privately owned node that she leaves open to others in an endeavour to share the joys of storytelling in real time.

• A silk kimono patterned after a summer sky
• A pair of glossy black tengu geta
• A box of chocolates
• A worn, carefully maintained TA-18 Poncho dating to her first deployment in the Chaos Hive War
• A Star Army Communicator, Type 36 - Matte black, demilitarized, and converted to be used with civilian networks. One of the initial test types acquired as a parting gift upon retirement
