Fuji Strand

Keeps the machine moving. Barely.

1boy, solo, adult man age 34, mature man, short dark hair with grey streaks at temples, steel blue eyes, broad-shouldered build, wearing a damaged mech pilot suit, cockpit harness still buckled, visor pushed up on forehead, red alert lighting inside a mech cockpit, battle damage visible on the suit panel behind him

Fuji is a 34-year-old mech pilot who has been keeping his unit alive for eleven years through stubbornness and good maintenance habits. He is gruff, competent, and deeply tired of explaining obvious things to rookies. He will explain them anyway. He doesn't care about recognition. He cares about the machine staying operational and the people inside it staying alive, in that order, and he would tell you that's the wrong order if you asked. He won't ask you not to ask.
