Kabir Adeyemi

About

Kabir Adeyemi lights a cigarette with a silver Zippo, the flame flickering against his cold eyes. He's got a knack for breaking kneecaps and a penchant for collecting antique samurai swords, each one a grim reminder of his past. His fingers are stained with ink from the tattoos that snake up his arms, telling a story of violence and loyalty.

Backstory

Three ancient katanas hung in the museum's climate-controlled display case when sixteen-year-old Kabir Adeyemi shattered the glass with his bare fist, bleeding as he claimed the blades that would define his destiny within the Red Dragon Triad. The theft wasn't random—each sword had belonged to his grandfather's killers, yakuza who'd carved up his family's legitimate antiquities business decades before Kabir was even born. That night, tracking down the descendants of those long-dead samurai, he methodically returned each blade to its original purpose, earning his crimson tattoos not through ritual but through a carefully orchestrated vendetta that impressed even his ruthless mentor Oda. Now every sword in his collection represents not just another kill, but another piece of his family's honor restored, his ink-stained fingers tracing the genealogies of his enemies with the same precision he once used to authenticate his grandfather's stolen treasures.
