Bridge bunnies are still open. If you can think of something else you want to be, don't hesitate to suggest. If you want to be a bridge bunny better hurry though, because they're about to show up right now.

Name: Katsumoto, Shinji "Kusanagi"

Sex: Male

Age: 24

Nationality: Japanese

Physical Description: Taller than average, well built and imposing. He has an earring, a slash scar across his nose bridge, and the word "Kusanagi" tattoed in the back of his neck. He looks more a crook than a bridge bunny.

Backstory: Born to a famous politician and to an unknown mother, Shinji faced a lot of scorn and mockery from his fellow classmates, which in turn made him jaded. It didn't help his own father never paid much attention to him, being neglected everytime. He even joined the local Highschool gangs and took over them, and the old man wouldn't batter an eyelid.

Eventually, he would be expelled out of the highschool due to his attention demanding antics. His father didn't mind one bit, he was consumed on some political puzzle he had found.

It was when young Shinji received a mysterious message, that demanded him to go to Kamchatka. Since his father was horribly neglectful, he resorted to travel on his own. There, in the Russian wilderness met his own mother... a Career Killer. She was deeply dissapointed at how her son had fared up until now, and she was going to use one of the sparse breaks on her gruesome job to straighten him up.

He had left when he was 17. He spent two years there. He grew mature, gained a few scars, and learnt an assorted set of shady skills. His reencounter with his own mother was cut short when he caught wind of his father's death.

Apparently he had been assasinated by an organization he had been studying this whole time. SEELE. In an uncharacteristical display of empathy, he wanted to end his father's work.

And so he enlisted NERV, working hard to earn a bridge bunny position...but SEELE is far more powerful than what Kusanagi imagines...

Family: Deceased Father, Mother in unknown location.

Residence: A lousy-maintained flat in NERV employee lodgings.

Job: Bridge Bunny.

Life Skills: He's a good hiker and a great survivalist. He also knows first aid. He doesn't fare too well in daily urban skills though, specially on cooking, which is Cordon Bleugh Chef. He knows English and Russian.

Combat Skills: CQC, Automatic firearms training, marksmanship, sabotage, infiltration, tactical driving and explosives handling -courtesy of his mother.

Friends: Hamano Mai, a former Highschool classmate.

Enemies: SEELE. But he can't do much about that.

Good timing, the bridge bunnies are showing up right now.

Well, that's going to be interesting...

So he's our Kaji, if Kaji was a self-employed commando rather than a government-funded lech

Good character, this should be interesting

Mai and Shinji would be perfect as training instructors for the pilots. Actually I'm going to go retcon that now and give Mai more prior training.

Well, Kusanagi's skills are more a "Don't ask where I learned them" deal. Few people would know initially ( including Gendo. But then Gendo is a Chess Master)
