General description: Ken is in fairly good shape and appears to be in his 30s. He wears his hair long, usually in a braid. He usually wears conservative business garb in public, but in casual settings, he usually wears items derived from those of the Earth nation Japan.

 

      Ken is originally from a colony called Prixus. He was part of a family of Japanese descent who settled there. A backwater planet, opportunities were poor, as was his family. However, he made a few extra credits trading with the occasional merchant ship that wandered through the system.
      Ken's family died soon after his majority, probably due to the fact that they were unable to afford the symbiotes that were required to properly filter Prixus' tainted air. Ken had the proper germ-line therapy before his birth, so he was immune to the affliction that claimed his family. Distraught and guiltful at their death, Ken joined the Confederation Outworld Partol Service (COPS).
      Ken served honorably in the COPS, learning how to handle a starship and making a few enemies among the underworld for doing a bit too well. But Ken realized that he was going nowhere fast. He wanted to bring fortune to his family so that they would not have to live in squalor like he did.
      It was during a tour on SP6 in the patrol that he first met his future wife Karina.
      So after Ken's contract with the COPS lapsed, he signed on to a free trader as a pilot and security officer. He did well there, but he returned to his true calling when he started negotiating at the trade table as he had done in his youth. Many years later, Ken's skills found him quite a wealthy man. He eventually returned to SP6 to marry Carina.
      By this time, his desire to make himself well off had developed into a full blown obsession. Even after he was married and a child on the way, his wanderlust did not die until Carina confronted him and forced him to settle down and stop roaming the spacelanes in his trade ship.
      He decided to settle on SP6. It was Carina's true home, and was a dynamic place business-wise, so it allowed him to turn a few business deals now and then.
 

      Ken is very gregarious and silver tongued. He can turn a deal with the best of them and sell ice to Hrathians (a cold place...). He has a sense of honor and obligation to his family, but has also developed a great degree of wanderlust and downright greedy desire to make a buck.
      Ken is very proud of his heritage. He decorates his home with trappings from ancient Japan. He carries a Katana with him whenever he takes his ship out into the spacelanes.
