Description
As Shoro: He stands at 6'2", fully garbed in a next generation suit of light armor. The armor itself seems to be made from some kind of next-generation ceramic or polymer, and seems almost too light to provide any real protection. Yet with a calm confidence, he stands here, and while you cannot see anything of the man beneath, you sense an unusual grace. A grace that promises both Power and Speed. His mask is made from the same material as his armor, and all you can see is his eyes, they are green, angry and dangerous.
As Yutaka Yamaoka A handsome Asian man stands before you, his short spikey hair and easy smile seem to encourage conversation. He stands at 5'11, with a strong athletic build. Black hair, and striking green eyes, unusual in an Asian, are set off by his lightly tanned skin. He is dressed in an expensive italian cut suit that you can only imagine what the cost was, with an azure blue shirt but no tie, he looks like some spoiled rich corporate slime.
Origin
Born Yutaka Yamaoka, in Sendai Japan, Yutaka was quickly isolated when he showed tremedous ability in the fighting arts as a child. His parents were wooed by the Shin-Sony corporation, his father given a low level management position in Tokyo, his mother offered a large apartment home in Sugamo, near mega-city Ikebukuro,they moved to Tokyo where Yutaka could be developed.
He was soon inducted into the Morita School of Gifted Children, and singled-out for special training and classes. While he learned his basic courses, he was also enrolled in various sports and activities, that at first seemed innocent. Gymnastics, Karate, Judo, Yoga, and Theatre Arts, those were his life until the age of 10. An average student in the primary courses of schooling, he excelled at the extracurricular arts he participated in.
At age 11 Yutaka was made to join a smaller group of students that exhibited special abilities. He was taught advanced arts in Ninjutsu, the hidden arts of concealment, shadowing, and stealth. His classes in the theatre arts delved deeper into the art of disguise and high society often being invited to functions and parties of the famous, rich and powerful.
Upon graduating, he was inducted into the Shin-Sony Institute of Intelligence, Majoring in Espionage with a focus in Security Systems. Having attend the Morita Academy, Yutaka was given many opportunities to advance his techniques in martial arts, learning from an ancient Koga Ninja, the primary techniques of the lost Wolf Clan Ninjutsu. His natural talents were honed to razor sharp levels, and as a graduating exam, he was given the test of infiltrating Shin-Sony Eastern Division of Weapons Research Facilities, and bring back one of the newly developed rail-guns. With little challenge, Yutaka was able to retrieve the rail gun, the only one in his class with honors, and the only one successful in the final exam.
On the day of his graduation, Yutaka's parents were involved in a terrible accident killing them both. Wracked with pain, he was consoled by his closest Professor, Dr. Akira Morimoto, intelligence department chair. The night of his parents death, Dr. Morimoto asked if Yutaka was interested in a special program that was currently seeking new recruits. Yutaka, stricken and seeking escape, accepted, and reported to the same facility that he had recently raided, the Eastern Division of Weapons Research.Escaping his pain, Yutaka buried himself in his work, black ops intelligence. 4 years passed and Yutaka and his squad was given a highly confidential mission: Operation Lightyear. In anticipation of this mission all mission participants were infused with "nanomebas", Nanotechnology that worked at an atomic level rearranging human DNA, muscle tissue and synapse alignment to improve human physiology and neurology. Results of this were different from individual to individual, but generally, strength, endurance, reaction times, and general physical toughness were improved. Some of the team found a raised level of intelligence, others found an awakening of psi-abilities. The mission assigned was the infiltration and retrieval of a reported proto-type Fold technology that was being developed by Rival NEO-Samsung.After a Black Ops drop into United Korean Territory, Yutaka's team infiltrated the Neo-Samsung facility and reached the labs that were developing the technologies, but as the prototype was being procured, one of the team was detected, Operation Lightyear was compromised, Agent Shigehara, a blood thirsty silent weapons master, lead the way out, explosions were heard, and the laboratory went up in flames, the destruction of the lab and all of its information was complete, but Agent Shimokawa, demolitions agent, was killed during the nightmare run out of the facilities, Agent kawakami was killed in front of Yutaka with a Laser through the eye, this only left Shigehara and Yutaka. As they escaped the facilities, Shigehara had been bathed in the blood ofNeo-Sung Security. That was the last he had seen of Shigehara, Shigehara had disappeared like a wraithe in the night and Yutaka was forced to find his way back to Japan with the fold device. On the run and blamed for the murders of Neo-Samsung employees, Yutaka was forced to lay low and find an alternate route home. It was a fortnight on the run before Yutaka made it back to Japanese Territory. Upon returning to Shin-Sony, Yutaka was debriefed, and the technology taken for reverse engineering. It was found that the technology was a miniturized fold engine that seemed to be able to get around the energy/mass problems of previous technology in existance.
Once his mission was complete Yutaka was entered into a new division of counter-intelligence within the weapons developement labs division. It was here that his life went from interesting to extra-ordinairy, the technology he had stolen had been integrated into a Black Ops Camouflage suit called "Shoro, the Vanishing Wolf Armor". Operation Shoro was partially a success, and Yutaka was given the Prototype armor to test in the field. The armor was tremedous, it could be invisible to electronic detection, new nanotechnology madethe armor self repairing, and at the atomic level, the armor the nanotech allowed for the complete change of the materials of the armor, able to 'transform' into other complex materials, making for instantaneous changes from his armor to other outfits at will. Furthermore additional nanotechnology was infused into his body through microscopic pores in his spine, the additional nanomebas increased his reaction time, heightening them beyond that of any normal human. Yet with all of this, the most important features of this armor was the ability to the space fold technology. Two such abilities endowed into the armor were the "Vanishing Wolf Fold" the minute use offolding to "teleport" to nearby locations. The other application was the invention of the "Direwolf Strike", a Hand strike that utilizes fold technology to attack and penetrate and disrupt the electrical impulses of a person while generating great kinetic energy associated with the incidental movement of folding space. While limited, further applications of the fold technology were being researched for greater enhancements to the armor unit.
The incidents in the rise of 'super-humanity' was of great interest to the Shin-Sony Corporation. An army of super-humans, advancing the machinations of Shin-Sony Super Executives drool with the thought. Yutaka, given the new name, Operative Shoro, was sent to Colonial Bay. The exposure of a Sentient-Monkey population was of great concern and interest to Shin-Sony.The theory of Genetic manipulation to create a superior Human seemed applicable, the abilty to affect the Evolutionary Chain was apparent. Shoro was sent to investigate and report back to Shin-Sony R/D on the rise of both the Sentient Monkeys and the Super-human population of Colonial Bay. Under the pretense of being a Shin-Sony Consultant, Yutaka began his undercover work for Shin-Sony in Colonial Bay.

Personality
Outwardly, he is social, debonaire, flirtatious, with matching good looks. Inwardly he burns with anger and confusion. Anger over the death of his parents, the death of his team, and the suspicion of murder by Neo-Sung Corporation for his involvement in an intelligence mission in United Korea. He is confused over his purpose in life. His nearly lethal mission in Korea has prompted him to question that which drives him. More and more he is coming to a certain realization that Shin-Sony, while gifting him with many opportunities, have required a price that he may be unwilling to pay. His skills in the theatre arts allow him to disguise his deep seated anger. He sometimes is not sure where his anger should lie, it is this confusion that torments his existance at times.
Relations
A member of the Black Sheep Samaritans, he has made friends with The Eel, Dancing Coyote, Random Factor, Amy McLaughlin, Valencia, and many others. He was until recently romantically involved with Laura Garrity, and was guardian over both Sakura Soma and Zinth, an alien.
He has been known to have procured close friendships with students from Colonial Heights High School as he is a substitute teacher there.
History
Shoro first appeared in October of 2055 as a Security Systems Consultant. He quickly made a name for himself both as a Hero in his Shoro ID and as a citizen in his Yamaoka ID. He has become something of a local hero.
During the summer of 2056, Yutaka took some friends and students to Japan. This began a series of events that lead to the death of Laura Garrity. Subsequent time found Laura Garrity Alive, but changed, by a disease brought on by vampiric involvement with David Ciaratara and Nanite infused blood of Yutaka.
