A high ranking enforcer with the Minamoto yakuza family, Saito Takeshi nevertheless has found himself laying low in the American Midwest along with the rest of his pack. Despite the loss of face, Takeshi tries to see the best in their new home, most notably St. Louis' highly belligerent Pure population. A Rahu of the Lodge of Garm, he looks forward to testing himself against the champions of the Anshega, and his eventual glorious death in battle. Until then, Takeshi serves as self-appointed protector of his pack, watching over the less bloody-minded yakuza like a big brother.
Appearance
Standing at six feet, Takeshi is exceptionally tall for a Japanese man, and his height is buoyed by copious amounts of lean muscle. Rarely seen without a tailored American suit, Takeshi's extensive tattoos are still occasionally visible, either when he removes his jacket before teaching an underling a lesson, or when he shifts into Gauru. These tattoos glow softly when his spirit brands are displayed, creating the illusion of stained glass upon his skin.
