_______________________________________________________________


Name: Tanaka Yoshiro (Yoshiro Tanaka, Western Fomat)

Nickname: Yoshi

Gender: Male

Race: Human

Birthdate: 7/29/86

Age: 23

Blood type: AB+

_______________________________________________________________


Occupation: Warehouse Supervisor (Former)

Mode of Transportation: Public Transportation

Hobbies: Collectable card games, photo booths, arcade games, cooking, and poetry.

Motto: "As long as you don't panic, these things tend to work out."

Appearance: Half American, Yoshi has medium-long blond hair and brown eyes. His eyesight is a little poor up close, and he has to wear glasses. Standing 5' 9.1" tall, and slender, he gives most people an impression of health, but not of great strength or ability. In a word, his appearance is "average". He has a light tan, slightly almond shaped eyes, and a pleasant smile. His expression can change quickly, and when he shows emotion, it is often intense. Whenever possible, he prefers to wear simple, businesslike clothes, but favors comfort over image. Usually, he pays little mind to things like wrinkles, and tends to wear slightly looser fitting clothes than necessary.

Personality: Normally, Yoshi is a fairly easygoing type. He likes to have things his own way, but prefers to take a gentle approach with others, rather than trying to force things. He's a generous person, with a heart of gold, but also very stubborn. In Yoshiro's world, right and wrong are as different as day and night, and sometimes this black and white world view can cause him trouble. He never gives up on something he believes in, and sometimes has trouble listening to people with different views. Deep down, though, he really cares deeply about those around him, and would rather laugh than fight. Still, he has a strong sense of honor and duty, and puts the good of others first.


Background: The son of a Japanese woman and an American sailor, Yoshiro never knew his father. To make matters worse, his grandparents considered his heritage a disgrace, and cut all ties, leaving he and his mother quite poor. In spite of this, Yoshi did well in school, suffering through poverty and the harsh words of others without complaint. His grades and hard work got him into a small but well run university, and he quickly found employment at a warehouse facility as an assistant manager, sending his mother what money he could.

Eventually his mother passed away, leaving him without any real ties. Though he had some casual acquaintances, he had not found time to make any lasting friendships. Without familly, Yoshi was essentially adrift, a lone island in the world. He continued to do his work diligently, even becoming promoted to site supervisor, but his life remained without direction.

All that changed in one instant, when he had his first encounter with Alchemy. It happened on a day like any other. Having found that one of the rented units, belonging to the Chouno family, had not been paid on, it was Yoshi's job to handle the initial inspection. Inside, he found strange equipment, and signs that a great deal of structural damage had been repaired. He also found a strange metal object, seemingly discarded on the ground. The object seemed odd to him, so he pocketed it to examine later.

However, as he left work that evening, he was attacked. The creature that had attacked him was some strange clawed thing, which looked like a cross between a beast and a man. Afterword, he could never quite remember how he had survived the attack. Blind instinct had taken over, pushing reason aside. He remembered holding a weapon, and wounding the creature, but details were hazy and few. All he knew was that somehow he had escaped.

It was not until two days later, when an alchemist warrior approached him, that he learned what had happened. He was told that the object he had found was a Kakugane, the creature a Homunculus. Then he was given a choice, having already awakened the power of his Buso Renkin, albeit on accident, he showed the potential to become an Alchemist Warrior. He could join the Alchemist Regime in their fight against the homunculi, or surrender the Kakugane and be moved to protectid custody in a new location. Moved with the desire to help mankind, he chose to fight.

Left on his own upon reaching the Alchemist headquarters, Yoshi headed to the Training Arena for weapon practice. After a hard workout, he settled down to catch his breath and perform some sensory exercises. Fatigue got the better of him, and he fell asleep shortly thereafter, only to be woken by Rose Marlett and Evi, her "Twin Sister" Buso Renkin.

Spending some time with the two, Yoshi gathered information about the current state of headquarters, and how to master his own Buso Renkin. He found the two to be pleasant company, particularly Evi. In spite of her being a Buso Renkin, Yoshi quickly took a liking to Rose's "sister", in particular because of her helpful advice. However, he decided in the end that he could not put Evi's advice to use, instead finding himself motivated to head directly to see the Captain and receive his first assignment.

Yoshi arrives at the Captain's Office just in time to see a fellow Alchemist in Training, Kumono D. Yusei, promoted to the rank of Warrior Third Class. The Captain then assigns Yoshi to acompany Yusei on his current assignment. They are to locate Justin Fields, also a member of the Alchemist Army, and return to him his original kakugane, currently in Yusei's posession. In this way, the Captain hopes to obtain information about the cause of Justin's recent change in personality. Hasty introductions made, Yusei and Yoshiro head for Justin's last known location, the Ginsei Private Academy dormatory.

After retrieving the suspect Kakugane, Justin tells Yoshiro and Yusei that the device appears to attract homonculi, and that he has one in captivity. Yusei chooses to take the Kakugane directly to headquarters, leaving Yoshi to investigate the supposed homonculus. In truth the story is just a ruse, and Justin assults Yoshi, attempting to flee out the window and chace down Yusei. Yoshiro instinctively activates his Buso Renkin, using its property of speed altering to attempt persuit. However, he misjudges the needed speed and sends himself flying, barely managing to land safely in a tree.

From this vantage, he watches powerlessly as Yusei and others combat an apparent scientist who wields a machine-animating Buso Renkin. Taking in the chaos, punctuated by Jason arriving and attempting to retrieve the suspicious Kakugane that was taken from him, and Yusei's activation of that same device, Yoshi is struck by his own inexperience. In the end, he is able to report back with what he sees, but offers little in the way of useful information. As a personal atonement, Yoshi spends the next week in intense training, before going to the Captain to request another assignment.

Yoshi's search brought him no leads. However, it did get the attention of the homunculi. He was followed in secret by Marcus, a humanoid homunculus with a Buso Renkin that enabled him to enter a spectral realm. Under surveillance, he made his way on a hunch to the old "haunted factory", not knowing that it had become the lair of an Alchemist Traitor. Yoshi was killed by a trap laid by the traitor, and his body disposed of. At the same time, Marcus stole his kakugane, which the homunculus discovered to be marked with the same serial number as his own. In truth, beneath a false outer shell, Yoshi's had been a white kakugane. Learning this, Marcus returned with it to his superiors.
