SATU
Personality
Sora is a serious and a very business orientated person due to certain events growing up and during his training with SATU. He saw what would happen when you were not totally dedicated to the task at hand and the mistakes that can come about because of it. While very efficient, his attitude and nature frequently grind on those he must work with. Logic dominates his decision making, which as you can imagine presents some issues with others when it comes to the preservation of life.
Even though these traits dominate his personality while at SATU and during missions, he isn't dense and does have a sense of humor. Although very quiet and has what seems to be a hint of introversion, Sora is very easy to get along with while out in Civilian life. However, when something serious inevitably arises, he turns back into his efficient military self.

Ability:
Overload - Sora has the ability to receive and process information at supercomputer levels for a short time. The part that makes this ability strong is that Overload affects his thinking as well, allowing for impossibly quick decision and deliberation. This ability does not heighten or enhance his mind or senses, but rather speeds up the processes of them.
Flaws:
Due to having this ability, Sora sometimes will be indecisive or overthink things. This is because when Sora uses Overload in combat, he has all the information in the immediate area available and processed. When making decisions outside of combat after having used his ability for a long time or in rapid succession, it makes Sora extremely anxious. If pushed to the brink, it will make him paranoid and illogical.
Due to his history of losing people, and experiencing death before joining SATU Sora is reluctant to get close to others. This causes friction and wears on his teammates because of the cold and often condescending attitude. Much of his antisocial and introverted mindset is due to this.
Sora pushes through missions using an almost exclusively logical and efficient set of thinking. Because of this, however, he might miss easier solutions or important things that do not directly relate to the mission at hand which causes further problems and issues.
Bio
Growing up had a large impact on how Sora saw the world. His family wasn't poor enough to live in the slums, however, if anything happens to the family business that might not be the case. His parents own and operate a local Japanese restaurant. Before, when the Earth was thriving with life Sora's family, The Yamaguchis, were making a name for themselves through the mastery of Traditional Japanese Cuisine. While the future has taken hold and many things have been lost to history, the Yamaguchi Family passed down recipes for hundreds of years. Because of this, Sora's family restaurant is one of the few places in New Eden to get an authentic Earthbound Japanese experience. While popular, it's a steady living and by no means glamorous. His life went about uneventfully until an event that shook everyone's life.
Unlike Sora's older brother Kiyoshi, Sora doesn't share the same burning passion for food. Because of this Kiyoshi decided at an early age to become a chef and keep the legacy of the Family name going. He's been in the kitchen with their father ever since. Both Kiyoshi and his father were disappointed when they learned Sora had no interest in running the restaurant full time, they understood that he had his own path and bore no ill will. Meanwhile, Sora was on a mission to find the right path for himself.
After months of soul searching, he got information that would change his world forever. The Niefoms that took his home on earth and his entire country away from him was going to attack New Eden. Sora didn't have any actual training, but he was athletic and had willpower. Of course, this attack happened too quickly and he couldn't volunteer for the MDS before something tragic happened. During one of the attacks, the Niefoms focused on the outskirts of the Market District. It happened to be in the same place where Sora's family restaurant was. By the time he heard and rushed to his home, he had seen the devastation that had been wrought. His home. His family's restaurant. His family period. All of it was gone. Their lifeless bodies still on display for everyone to see. It wasn't long before the Niefoms were fought back, and peace was set upon New Eden again. This came about with the help of a seemingly new group called SATU. Due to how powerful they were and how quickly they dealt with the Neifom attack, Sora decided to make his way towards wherever they were located and try to join. Was it for revenge, or because he was just lost? Hiro himself figure it out just yet.
After a few years of training, and making it past the death gate of a serum, he managed to start doing missions. Working with some of the first generation SATU Sora was able to gauge just the sort of people risking their lives and doing this. During one of these routine missions, an innocent died. It was played off like a normal murder in the slums, but it was actually an accident due to the negligence of a comrade. No longer seeing this person as the same, he decided to train under another.
