The Three Clans of Lokyan
By: NozzIvix Date: December 17, 2013, 11:42 am
---------------------------------------------------------
Alongside his normal army of Pirates and Mercs, Lokyan's wife
Hyun has trained three clans of warriors in the Shinobi arts and
Bushido. Regarded as ninja due to their shinobi training, the
clans are much closer to Ronin Samurai than true ninja. As
nano-woven blades have been shown to penetrate Barriers and
Shields, and certain types of hardsuit, swords have come back
into vogue with pirates, and ancient sword techniques have been
adapted to modern combat.
The Sukuu Clan (The Freed): Based around Stealth and Technology,
the Sukuu specialize in Assassination and infiltration. They
tend to carry a Locust SMG and a traditional Tanto blade, though
some carry a longer Wakizashi into longer battles where sword
fighting is possible. Their omni-tools are modified based on the
user's preference, but they tend to prefer a concealed pistol,
or derringer, attachment followed by incinerates and toxin
deployment.
The Yokaze Clan(The Night mist/wind): The Yokaze are biotic
specialists, having combined their Stealth training with biotic
power. They wield whatever blade fits each Yokaze's style, but
the standard is a Medium-length Wakizashi with a powerful pistol
in reserve, yet they prefer to use biotics.Their repertoire
includes powerful invisible barriers, mild cloaking, and the
means for their name. Skilled Yokaze shinobi can agitate the air
in a battlefield, creating a biotic mist that brings visibility
down to near zero, though it removes them from battle since it
requires so much concentration. The Yokaze serve as mystics and
strategists, many of the freed slaves that become members having
been Asari as old as Matriarch, as well as Biotic slaves being
used in both gladiatorial and mercenary combat throughout the
galaxy.
The Shikaeshi Clan(The Resistance/Revenge): The Shikaeshi are
the more combat-oriented Shinobi clan, for those that prefer
honourable combat to sneaking around. They serve as the
'police force' of Kalihir, and are the frontline soldiers when
conflict breaks out. They carry long Nagamaki blades, or
Naginata for ceremonial purposes, though a few have developed
methods to use the spear in combat. In open combat, they carry
assault rifles or shotguns, depending on the user. The original
Shikaeshi ninja were augmented for strength, due to backgrounds
in heavy labour and Gladiatorial combat, this increased strength
allowed them to use the long and heavy Nagamaki blades with
ease. Newer members of the clan undergo this same augmentation,
though a more refined and painless process, as part of
tradition, thanks to Katanask Technologies.
The three clan Leaders were all rescued in the same slave raid,
and proved themselves extremely talented in training. When the
time came, they founded their own clans based off their own
specializations, and named them based on their own beliefs.
Gaijin Sukuu: Born into slavery, Gaijin Sukuu was never given a
name, nor did he ever meet his family. As such, he had no
contact with other Drell until he met Lokyan. He was forced to
work on dangerous engineering and tech jobs for his master, and
frequently tried to escape. One of his escape attempts resulted
in his cruel master running a blade down the entire left side of
his face, leaving a deep scar. After escaping with Lokyan, the
Drell asked for his name, and Gaijin had nothing to tell him.
After learning Japanese, he found a word that he felt defined
him: Gaijin, foreigner. He carries the basic Sukuu equipment,
but completely eschews the Tanto for the Wakizashi
Kawara Yokaze: Kawara started life as many Asari did, living in
luxury on Thessia. That lasted for twenty years. At age twenty,
her parents died in a freak accident and she was sent to live
with her aunt, who had a terrible gambling habit. When she was
gearing up to depart on her Maiden Stage voyage across Citadel
Space, the aunt arranged for her to be kidnapped and taken into
slavery to pay off a debt. She spent over a hundred years as a
sex slave before becoming a concubine as she began her matron
stage. She was forced to use her biotics to entertain visitors
to her master's domain. These would later be adapted to create
the 'Night Mist' the Yokaze clan is known for. When Lokyan freed
her and all the other slaves, she joined his crew, bringing a
good deal of Asari with her. As a Matriarch that had spent over
700 years bouncing from master to master, she endeavoured to pay
back the kindness of Lokyan, and became the first Yokaze ninja.
Teranus Shikaeshi: Teranus was once a military captain rising
through the ranks of the Hierarchy, Teranus was disgraced after
his father was caught selling Turian secrets to the Batarians
using Teranus' access codes. Stripped of his rank and exiled,
Teranus was eventually enslaved and forced to become a
gladiatorial combatant, his muscles augmented for greater
strength and durability via a highly painful and highly illegal
process known as 'juicing', combining cybernetic implants and a
chemical that strengthens muscle tissue. This form of juicing
led to a psychological breakdown common in what is known as 'Gen
1 Juicers', which leads them to be bloodthirsty and prone to
outbursts of anger. After being freed and treated using Katanask
Technology's state of the art medical division, Juicing was
reverse engineered into a much safer form, and Teranus and the
Gen 1 Juicers were cured of this state, though they are still
more violent than usual. The new 'juice' used by newer Shikaeshi
do not suffer from these side-effects, yet are still much
stronger that normal.

very easily. Since their numbers aren't exactly massive, and
only about one of them is actually worth a shit in combat.

Maybe get masses of conscript infantry and teach 'em the
bayonet.
Then we reenact this part from that silly Tom Cruise Movie.
