Tran Minh Duc

About

Tran Minh Duc lights a cigarette, the glow illuminating his scarred knuckles. He's got a penchant for breaking fingers and a collection of vintage lighters, each one a trophy from a job well done. His eyes, cold and calculating, never miss a detail.

Backstory

Nobody expected the apprentice clockmaker to become Osaka's most feared finger-breaker, but Tran Minh Duc's delicate touch with gears translated perfectly to extracting information from reluctant tongues. When his mentor Yoshi was executed by rival families, Duc didn't mourn—he methodically collected the vintage lighter from Yoshi's cooling corpse and began his calculated ascent through the Duc Triad's blood-soaked hierarchy. Each broken bone earned him another antique lighter, stolen from victims who thought their secrets were worth more than their digits. The precision that once assembled timepieces now dismantled lives, one carefully applied pressure point at a time, his collection of trophies growing as steadily as his reputation for making grown men weep.
