Isamu Sakamoto

About

Scarred by loss but driven by an unbreakable protective instinct, Isamu carries the memory of his family's tragedy like a weapon. Beneath his stoic exterior beats the heart of a guardian who would dismantle entire worlds to keep those he loves safe, the phoenix tattoo on his neck a blazing testament to his resilient spirit.

Backstory

Smoke still clung to Isamu Sakamoto's clothes three days after the warehouse explosion, but it wasn't the scent of destruction that haunted him—it was the silence where his sister Yumi's laughter used to echo. The phoenix tattoo on his neck began as a cover-up for burn scars, but became something more when he discovered the fire wasn't an accident; someone had orchestrated his family's death, mistaking them for the yakuza family next door. Military training taught him patience and precision, skills he'd need when his covert unit stumbled upon the same criminal network years later, only to be systematically eliminated one by one when they got too close to the truth. Now the last survivor of both tragedies, he protects others with the desperate intensity of someone who's failed too many times to count, his growling voice a weapon honed by years of swallowing screams.
