About

Chukwu Ejiofor navigates the underbelly of Osaka with a grin that cloaks his cunning. An adept card shark, he turns the chaos of the streets into a game of strategy, never letting a moment pass without weighing his options. The scars on his hands tell tales of both brutality and precision, making him a dangerous player in the Yakuza landscape.

Backstory

Mathematics saved Chukwu Ejiofor's life before he understood what death meant. His mother, a brilliant statistician who'd fled Nigeria's political turmoil, taught him probability theory through rigged carnival games they'd hustle together at Osaka's night markets—until the Crimson Lotus syndicate discovered her genius for predicting their underground gambling outcomes and silenced her permanently. Thirteen-year-old Chukwu inherited both her mathematical gift and her killers' attention, forcing him to weaponize probability into an art form that could slice throats as cleanly as it could calculate card odds. The scars mapping his hands aren't from violence alone—they're deliberate cuts he makes before each major gamble, using his own pain to sharpen his focus and honor his mother's memory in blood.
