Background
The world of Phastos, a high-tech utopia at peace… until the mysterious Malev Stormlord and his creatures attacked out of nowhere. The Nova Academy is the frontline against the sudden attacks by impossible monsters as the Unified Nations of Phastos fight back with ultra-tech battle mecha and Yumi is a top student there, trained and enhanced for combat. She’s the tip of the spear, the best of the best and was student council president. During one major offensive, she followed a retreating General-class unit back into one of the storms that they mysteriously appeared from and managed to take it out at the cost of her own mecha.
She bailed out and when her seat fell past the strangely-glowing clouds, she found herself not on her world, but a bizarre, blasted landscape… RIFTS Earth. A post-apocalyptic hellscape of savagery, super-science and sorcery. It sucks. She landed at a battlefield littered with smashed-up robots and monster corpses, near somewhere called “Tolkeen.”
Yumi rebuilt and customized one of the fallen mecha as her own and has started to look for a way home… or maybe some answers. Rifts were an unknown phenomenon back home, but what she’s learned here would explain a LOT about where the enemy came from. One thing is exactly the same as back home though… people are often in danger and they need help. That’s what she was raised and trained to do and she does it without hesitation.
That was how she came to the Black Company… Marauders were shaking down a farming village with, among other things, a UAR-1 and Yumi left it in a smoldering heap. She was referred to Black Dawn, offered a job and took it… it’d be easier than wandering from place to place to find answers or people in need of help, and she could use the support for ammo and repairs.
Yumi is a D-Bee human with dark blue hair in her late teens, lean from training, a couple inches above average height. She’s almost always in her flight suit body armor, but will go for a pleated blue skirt, white blouse and red scarf when a scramble isn’t imminent, or cargo shorts and a tank top for crawling around in her mecha’s systems. She has a sharp mind and a sharp tongue, outspoken about things like the Coalition, Lord Dunscon, plagues of demons, etc.
