Yoshiro Kato

About

Beneath the broken hourglass tattoo etched into his neck, Yoshiro Kato harbors a twisted obsession with precise timing—every criminal operation he orchestrates unfolds with surgical meticulousness, down to the millisecond. Where most see chaos, he sees an intricate dance of strategy, each movement calculated to manipulate the very fabric of street-level power dynamics.

Backstory

Nobody expected the city's most feared gang leader to be a former clockmaker's apprentice. Yoshiro's delicate fingers, once used to repair intricate timepieces, learned to dismantle lives with the same precision after his master was murdered over a debt to the Yakuza. The broken hourglass tattoo on his neck contains actual sand from the shop floor where old Takeshi bled out, each grain a reminder that time can be weaponized. When the police refused to investigate and the Yakuza laughed at his demands for justice, Yoshiro discovered that fear was simply another mechanism to master. Now the Stonecutters gang operates like clockwork under his leadership, each member a perfectly calibrated piece in his grand design to make the powerful pay for every stolen second.
