Welcome to Tokyo, Japan. January, 1991. The world has entered the technology era, portable phones, home computers, internet, video games. Japan quickly became the epicenter of the latest and greatest. Companies and factories flourished. Where money was, people followed. And while many rose to live a comfortable, happy, and delightful life from this new found money... Others did not. You see, money has this effect on people that can't be outdone. People will do anything for it. And when it starts slipping into the wrong hands, it's impossible to stop. Benethe the day time laborers and the double-shift workers, a seedy underbelly of syndicates exists. Narctics, black market, organized crime, money laundering, you name it and it's been growing as fast as the upper world economy. While many do it just to stay alive, there's those who make it their posh lifestyle. Either way, there's only one question. What would you do if the money was good enough?

[attr="class","temp_cont"] Meet Sugawara Yua, one of the eldest out of 10 siblings conceived by Sugawara Kenta- the leader of a fire worshipping cult hidden within a tightly-knit neighbourhood in Yokohama. Due to such a peculiar upbringing, it’s no surprise that Yua herself is quite the odd individual. Often described as stoic, intimidating and uncaring, she has built quite the reputation for herself, especially amongst her siblings, mannerly clambering to the suitable title of ‘scary older sister’. Ever since her father passed in a detrimental accident, alongside many other cult members, Yua spent her adult years rebuilding what she could from the rubble left behind, striving to fulfil her fathers ideals, and essentially become just like him in hopes of making him proud. Even as a fully grown woman, Yua still competes for her fathers adoration and approval, trapping her in an endless cycle of idolising a dead man.
[attr="class","temp_head"] + FRIENDS | ENEMIES
[attr="class","temp_cont"] It is no wild surprise that Yua faces quite the trouble when making friends. Upon first greeting, it is more common than not for her to act hostile and mannerless, especially in situations where she isn’t the one in the position of power. Friends, enemies, they all simply blur into one monochromatic mess for this intimidatingly relaxed woman, causing her to be unbothered in actively seeking relationships. Yua is not even close with her vast amount of siblings. The only person she has ever called her friend was her father, and now that he’s gone, the list is empty. With defensive walls as immovable as a boulder and a naturally aggressive tongue, Yua often finds herself crossing the wrong side of people much more often than the right.
[attr="class","temp_head"] + LOVERS
[attr="class","temp_cont"] Finding itself in a similar predicament to the relationships stated before, intimate relationships almost seem impossible for Yua. She is so caught up in her own little world that it would simply be foolish to allow another person in. Yua is not fooled by seduction or temptation, for her power-hungry mind would not allow herself to stoop to such low levels of desperation. Perhaps there is someone out there who could be the ying to her yang, but for now, Yua’s heart remains cruely trapped in a prison cell, and she was the one who threw away the key.

[attr="class","temp_head"] + ABOUT
[attr="class","temp_cont"] Say hello to your favourite kick-ass grandpa, Ishida Bram! Having lived off the bare minimum in a small wooden shack in a desolate forest in Sweden, Bram’s childhood was definitely different to most kids his age. Growing up he learnt how to chop wood with axe’s bigger than himself and catch fish with his bare hands in bubbling brooks. Now living in Tokyo at 60 years of age, serving as the SuperIntendent General of the Police Department, Bram can often be found lazing at his desk and grumbling about the weather. Fatherly, dogmatic and vibrant, this old dog isn’t afraid to give you a piece of his mind, often without filters. He may be old, but he’ll teach you how to respect your elders- there’s nothing wrong with a bit of tough love, ay?
[attr="class","temp_head"] + FRIENDS | ENEMIES
[attr="class","temp_cont"] Bram sees it as a good old coin flip that decides whether or not people are friend or foe. Some view him as far too loud and annoying for their liking, whilst his mates down at the pub will say that he's far too… loud and annoying. Anyways! Bram’s occupation means that he’s working with wrongens day in day out, involving him in the world of crime, which always guarantees a couple of enemies here and there. Bram doesn’t mind however, because no matter what happens, he’s always the top dog.
[attr="class","temp_head"] + LOVERS
[attr="class","temp_cont"] Old man alert old man alert! The relationship history of the rugged man of the woods happens to be close to none. At the age of 60, Bram isn’t looking for any intimate relationships as he is simply too involved with himself and his work. He’ll cut your fingers off one by one and laugh if you try to flirt with him!

[attr="class","temp_cont"] You’re late, you’re late, for a very important date! The Mad Hatter has invited you to the grand White Rabbit casino! What an honor~ Make sure to bring your best game face, the most elegant attire, and of course your entire bloodline's most valued items! You’ll be sure to have a blast whenever Neiru’s around, and don’t worry, she’ll keep your pretty pennies nice and safe. This loopy, victory-obsessed woman, suitably code named the Mad Hatter, is the owner of one of Tokyo’s most favoured underground Casino’s. However, nothing is as innocent as it seems. Assuming her natural position in control, Neiru enjoys tugging at the strings behind the scenes, slyly rigging otherwise ‘innocent’ looking games and watching as her mindless customers fall into the unforgiving grasp of monetary debt. So come on down! Fall into the rabbit hole and gamble away your entire life!~
[attr="class","temp_head"] + FRIENDS | ENEMIES
[attr="class","temp_cont"] Neiru lives by the ideals of keeping your friends close but your enemies closer, feeding into her odd affixation with the enjoyment she receives from being so close to danger. Being quite social, Neiru thrives when surrounded by the company of others, even if they are labelled as foe. After all, betrayal can’t come from your enemies, right! Nothing get’s her going more than dining with her enemies as it were. When in a good mood, Neiru is bubbly and vibrant, making it easy for her to ramble on and make conversations with strangers if she needs to. Being quite the eccentric character herself, it is always a gamble on what side of Neiru you may end up on.
[attr="class","temp_head"] + LOVERS
[attr="class","temp_cont"] Although never landing herself in a serious relationship, Neiru is definitely a charmer, armed with a seductive tongue and playful attitude. But is it really genuine? Does this crazed individual care enough about the life of others to involve herself intimately with them, or is it purely just a luring tactic?
