Background
Born into the nobility on the planet Soverzene in the Alshain Prefecture of the Rasalhague District of the Draconis Combine, Machiko’s early life was as free as anyone’s can be in the Draconis Combine. Despite being in the Rasalhague District, Machiko’s family was staunchly loyal to the Dragon, and took no part in the near-rebellious activities that plagued the District. As an only child, Machiko was expected to do her duty for the Dragon, and to ensure her success, she was enrolled in a prestigious military school. Graduating near the top of her class, and with her family’s influence behind her, Machiko made it into the Sun Tzu School of combat, and even managed to enroll in the school’s office program.
After graduating, she was assigned to the 22nd Rasalhague Regulars, serving as a lance commander. Her Tour of Duty was filled with the typical border raiding by Steiner and their mercenaries, with little to distinguish it. It wasn’t until near the end of her Tour that disaster struck.
A rival noble on Soverzene had attacked her family, destroying their standing and reputation by fabricating evidence that implicated the Samatsus in anti-Combine activities. Her father tried to fight back, but the damage was done, and he died in disgrace and with him the family’s influence died as well. Machiko was dismissed from the DCMS in disgrace, and sold to the Watanabe-regno, a Yakuza group that had helped the noble with the destruction of Machiko’s family.
She spent 5 long years as a slave to the Yakuza, slowly biding her time. Her natural abilities helped her immensely as she slowly gathered power to herself. When the Yakuza Oyabun and the noble that ruined her family hired a mercenary unit to increase their power, Machiko saw her opportunity, using her natural leadership abilities to get her claws into the unit. Eventually she was able to ruin the plans of the noble and Oyabun and fled with the mercenary unit. The fighting left most of the mercenary leadership in shambles, and so Machiko stepped in, and by the time the unit arrived on Galatea, the Neon Kunoichi mercenary unit had been formed.
