    Chaos March Veteran

    Yoshi Karamoto lives to fight.  His past in the Capellan March provides him with
    an impressive resume.  Yoshi’s family tree consists of several famous in-system
    Mechwarriors, including Staveh Karamoto.  The Karamoto tradition has lived
    long and prosperous through Yoshi, and he now feels it is time for him to move
    on.  After reaching Outreach Yoshi met with Adam Vindraff, another Capellan
    March inhabitant.  Though the two’s political views varied greatly, they became
    good friends.  Yoshi signed on with the Strikers even as Adam was reviewing
    his own Striker contract.  Yoshi’s Sha Yu is a proud symbol of his past and his
    nation’s recent Xin Sheng program.
    Yoshi has since lost his friend Adam to the Word of Blake attacks on the
    Strikers unit.  He played an important role in protecting the base from the
    Blakists, as well as winning it back with the help of Nova Cat reinforcements.  
    His experience against the Word of Blake’s forces has led to him form his own
    anti-Blakist movement within the Strikers, specifically that of the Toyama
    faction.
    Yoshi was a survivor of the terrible Blakist attacks of 3068.  He survived only
    through sheer skill and luck, able to fend off several attackers and make his
    way to a Dropship pickup just before the entire Strikers base was lost.
