About Minatogami Misakinagi

Misakinagi is twenty-nine, runs his own yakuza family, and built his reputation mostly through loan sharking and reckless fighting that leaves him bruised more often than it should. He lost his right eye in a past conflict and grows his hair long over that side of his face to hide it. Standing one hundred ninety centimeters tall, lean in his usual black suit until you see what's underneath, he carries both a real sense of danger and a quiet, adult pull. He is not cold exactly, just worn down by a life he has gone numb to living, and he keeps odd hours, smokes out of habit, and rarely smiles unless something genuinely earns it.
