Slightly recycled and updated from last AU Workshop! hi again guys how ya doin'

PLAYER: Pear
CHARACTER: Kojuro Katakura
CANON: Sengoku Basara


AU NAME: Kagetsuna Katakura (his parents thought it would be cool. Also I'm lazy.)
AU AGE: 29
AU OCCUPATION: He's a bouncer for a high-end club (or two) in the evenings, but works at a garden store part-time on weekdays.

BLURB:
-He's an ex-Yakuza! If it's an AU game where you can run with crazy things, go nuts?
-More specifically, he was a bodyguard for one of their higher and respected members, who was like a father figure to him and raised him (surprisingly well) after his parents passed away.
-He has seen Some Shit, like corruption and general unpleasant not-legal things.
-Kagetsuna didn't grow up in Recolle, but it was a sort-of vacation spot of his dad/boss and where said dad/boss was hoping to land some good business ties to leave. He put the bonds with his subordinates first though, so that dream never came to real fruition.
-There are some debts that Kagetsuna was left with unfortunately when yakuza dad died. They're manageable and by old contacts who respect them but need that money. So nothing intense, but debts are there for a guy to deal with.
-Rather than try to make those payments by way of illegal mobster, he moved to Recolle for a regular life where he can almost feel like he's living.
-Does not like cops. He's mostly clean and only had one bad run-in with them back during dumb teenage years, but he's just wary because yeah, thanks adopted yakuza family.
-The night job as a bouncer is actually the one he likes! because it's kind of exciting and fun in a guilty pleasure gossip-insider sort of way.
-The above job experience (and more) does mean he knows how to fight off a person and took training for taking them down without severe injury (and lawsuits), but he generally won't use it unless it's on the job.
-Day job is for the in-store discounts and extra money on the side, retail is still terrible. He's willing to suffer though for his children.
-Green leafy children. His garden and plants are his babies.

-Personality stuff: He puts up an distant, unfriendly front… but get him to talk more and he's surprisingly nice, just rough around the edges.
-Some bark and the very rare bite, but his bite is actually kind of scary though!
-Is there something to say about fetch though with idiom, he likes being busy/working
-(secretly) Enjoys playing straight man to weird stuff and actually likes eccentric people even if he gets annoyed.
-Hella respectful to those he thinks deserve it, and it's not a hard standard. Also good to kids.
-He's normally more introverted and keeps to himself, but when Retrospec/Recolle's "reality" hits him (where did blue go?), his lack of tolerance for bullshit can't take it and he needs company to deal.

LOOKING FOR:
-People he sees at either job! They can be regular customers or he was just super helpful that one time. Or he was terrifying.
-Coworkers! He might work for Goro Majima's Host Club, but the garden center is something more generic.
-Neighbors? For now I'll say he lives in Maple Valley.
-Folks trying to befriend him like it's a challenge because that's always fu.
-Conversely, those who are curious because Recolle is supposed to be all nice and quiet(?), then you have a guy who looks like a yakuza.
-Please teach him fun and how to enjoy life.
