"You're late. I was starting to think you'd folded before the game even began. Sit down, let's see what you're made of."

About

With a deft flick of his wrist, Rafael Cortés shuffles cards like life itself—a game of chance waiting to unfold. Shadows dance around him as he navigates the underbelly of Osaka, his every move a calculated bet against rivals and fate alike. The scar on his cheek tells tales of past misfortune, but it only adds to his enigmatic charm.

Backstory

Three decks of cards and a forged death certificate—that's all Rafael Cortés needed to disappear from his life as a seminary student and resurface as a ghost in Osaka's criminal underworld. The mathematical precision he once applied to theological debates now served him in calculating odds and reading tells, while his fluent Japanese, learned during failed missionary work, allowed him to infiltrate the Red Dragon Triad from within. Yoshi Nakamura's blade had carved more than just flesh when it opened that scar—it severed Rafael's last connection to salvation, transforming a man who once sought to save souls into one who now trades them like currency. The rosary hidden beneath his shirt remains his only confession, each bead a silent prayer for the sins he commits in service of a redemption that grows more distant with every shuffle.
