The White Tiger Yakuza Syndicate The White Tiger Yakuza Syndicate, is a group formed by the legendary Kais Ishikawa. The principle of the Syndicate is to be a prevailing business group in Anthos. Evolving from the Sutōmu Military of Yamamoto, the Syndicate has kept the strong mentality of a Military. The Syndicate mostly deals in the transportation of goods and that of hospitality business, using unconventional tactics yet keeping its business legitimate. The Syndicate seeks Enforcers, shop related staff and is open to accepting specialists. The goods dealt with range to all corners of the commercial spectrum. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Structure Oyabun: The Head of the Syndicate, he is the supreme leader of the organization. He handles the high level deals and gives orders to his subordinates. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wakagashira: The Second in Command and Right Hand of the Oyabun. He or she handles the muscle of the Syndicate, leading the hired guards for whatever the job the Syndicate takes on. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Saiko-komon: He or she handles the administration of the organization. He or shes duties include pay, supplies and other things of that nature. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shateigashira: A mid-level position in the organization usually is in charge of leading a group of enforcers. He or she works directly with the Wakagashira or Saiko-komon. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kumi-in: These are the enforcers of the organization, they guard the shipments and make sure property the White Tigers own is kept safe. This rank also includes covert operatives of the Syndicate who mostly remain unknown to many. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kyodai: A Kyodai runs a shop under the Syndicate. They are in charge of their shops sales and searches for jobs in its local region. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kaikei: The Kaikei assist the Kyodai with whatever they need and assist in the Kyodai’s endeavors. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shatei: The Shatei is an entry-level position in the syndicate. They work under a Kyodai, they can be assigned in several different jobs such as harvesting, smithing, cooking, hunting, gathering. A Shatei has an option of taking two paths either in sales as a Kaikei, or defence as a Kumi-in. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Traditions Yubitsume Yubitsume is a form of penance or apology. Upon a first offence, the transgressor must cut off the tip of his left little finger and give the severed portion to his senior. Sometimes an underboss may do this in penance to the oyabun if he wants to spare a member of his own gang from further retaliation. Its origin stems from the traditional way of holding a Easterner sword. The bottom three fingers of each hand are used to grip the sword tightly, with the thumb and index fingers slightly loose. The removal of digits starting with the little finger moving up the hand to the index finger progressively weakens a person's sword grip. The idea is that a person with a weak sword grip then has to rely more on the group for protection—reducing individual action. In recent years, prosthetic fingertips have been developed to disguise this distinctive appearance. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Masks The Enforcers wear masks sometimes that which resemble animals or demons in Easterner culture, it is used for protection, intimidation and for easy identification during jobs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Clothing Armour worn by the enforcers is that of the former Ishikawa Sutōmu type that was the Tosei Gusoku armour. Day to day attire for employee’s of the Syndicate includes that of a kimono or other traditional wear. Enforcers carry swords at their belts at all times, they do so to protect the interests of the White Tiger Syndicate. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Application: -OOC Part- MC name: Do you have Skype?
