Kotono Ito
  
Kotono Ito was part of the new wave of Fen coming to orbit after 2014, settling in Kandor city where she worked at the Green Street Gym, training as an exercise instructor while there. As part of her training, she took a Super's Field Medic's course. She also showed a unique aptitude for Zero-G and took up stardancing as a hobby. After years of practice, she planned to turn professional in 2020, but broke her ankle in a bad fall, missing the qualifications for Jeanne's Dance. Aggravating the injury to try and force herself to enter ended her professional career.
+
Kotono seems to be that rare thing up here - a well adjusted and otherwise normal human being. Her sole vice seems to be a tendency toward money and consumption - but that's her and a billion other human beings. Looks a little like Linna from Bubblegum Crisis - though with hazel eyes. Kinda acts like her too....
  
Soon after, Kotono moved to [[77 Frigga]], taking a job as Survival Shot. She's responsible for the physical side of things, for ensuring that patrons are in decent physical shape, go through proper warmups and cooldowns, and for handling any minor injuries that occur. <ref>More serious ones are dealt with off-site</ref>
+
==Origin==
  
She's just about the only decent cook on the Asteroid, and loves the local style<ref>Especially the Leg warmers</ref>. She's also a total neat freak.
+
Kotono is part of the New Wave of Fen, in that she doesn't come from a fannish background. Her parents moved to [[Kandor City |Kandor]] after their hometown was evacuated, and Kandor seemed like an up-and-coming place off the world at the time. They had need of language teachers and engineers, which her mother and father would gladly provide - while Kotono herself entered the city's public schooling system
  
Kotono prefers to be around people, and dislikes the solitude on Frigga. She vociferously opposes the death penalty. Having spent most of her recent life on Kandor, she has ties to the JLI and actively keeps her qualifications current. She's certain that SHIELD are aware of her current activities<ref>Not that she's seen any evidence that they are, but it's a valid assumption</ref>, and privately worries about what will happen should they decide to get involved. She tries to stand up for her own ideas of justice, and sees the Knight Sabers as a valid outlet for it, especially after some of the missions they've pulled off.
+
She didn't get especially good grades - partly a language barrier, and partly because Kotono spend a lot of time enjoying school life. She didn't really care. However, she joined the school's [[Fen Sports|Stardancing]] team and found her first love. Zero-G Gymnastics.
  
She will try most things at least once, even if only to discover she never wants to do them again.
+
She won the Kandor championships and inter-school competitions aged 15 and aimed to go truly professional, funding her competition through work in local Gymnasium. Kotono took a few [[Justice League Interplanetary|JLI]] qualification courses as a Fitness Instructor, Physiotherapist and Emergency Medic, qualifying her to go Pro as an instructor.  
  
==Knight Sabers==
+
Kotono was training herself for Jeanne's Dance, 2019, when she broke her ankle after an awkward landing. Attempting to push through the pain left her with a permanent injury that required corrective surgery, putting her out of action for the year - and putting an end to her professional career.
  
Kotono is the Green Saber.
+
Out of a job, she joins Survival Shot, both as an emergency medic to handle any injuries that come up, and as a fitness trainer for those few fen who just can't keep up...
  
While she was recovering [[Jet Jaguar]] in the guise of [[Sylia Stingray]] approached her with a unique offer. She found the prospect exciting at first, and has brought her own unique capabilities to the group. Originally in it only for the thrill of taking a hardsuit through a gymnastic routine in zero-g while bullets fly, she found that she was also doing quite a bit of good. Despite some of the inane missions they get hired for.
+
==History in Fenspace==
  
She also likes her monthly pay, and always has an eye on the bottom line.
+
It's obvious why she ended up on [[77 Frigga| Frigga]] - there was money enough in it for her to work there.
  
==Mundane Attributes==
+
That's it. It's really hard to say much about her beyond that. She seems to have been happy to work for Survival Shot, and spend the money she earned on clothes and good quality fresh food. <ref>Lacking in ambition? Just not very driven? Or content and comfortable?</ref>. She spent her time and money on her apartment, making it a comfortable place to live. She owns her own Bolitho which has been luxuriously equipped inside and seems more concerned with being comfortable in life than doing something spectacular or 'cool' for the sake of doing it...
  
''Active heart'': Kotono loves physical exercise. She loves the 'Runners high', the feeling of being out and doing something rather than sitting and waiting in an office.
+
She recently opened her own gym, the Fitness Bee, shortly after Frigga joined the Crystal Millennium and started to have a population again. And that's basically it.
  
''Airway, breathing...'': Decent medic. Usually capable of making sure someone makes it to a qualified doctor, at least as well as handling minor injuries herself.
+
Oh... she was the one who [[Shinji Ikari]] woke up to because they shared a similar cultural background.<ref>And her apartment home wasn't either too small, or an utter mess, or home to loads of Evangelion merchandise and someone who sort of looks a little like a miniature Evangelion</ref>
  
''Dirt destroyer'': Always keeps her quarters clean and neat, almost to the point of obsession.
+
Other than that, she's really just a bit mundane for Fenspace, and not ashamed of it in the slightest.
  
''Needs a little salt'': The only decent cook on Frigga.
+
==Rumours Surrounding Kotono==
  
''Dancing among the stars'': Skilled Zero-G gymnast, and capable of translating those skills to a hardsuit.
+
Is Kotono secretly a SHIELD agent keeping an eye on [[Jet Jaguar]]?
  
== Quirks ==
+
She's been a little bit *too* under the radar for many tastes. There's something fishy about her. And you know SHIELD'd be interested in anyone who can bring that sort of lethality to bear - especially with a personality like hers. Is Kotono their eyes onsite?
  
''I'm not small, I'm slim'': Rather sensitive about her figure....it's a berserk button for her.
+
==Signature Gear==
  
''Let's be friends...'': Unable to commit to deeper relationships with people. She just can't find the right person.
+
Fashion from the 1980's, including stuff like leg-warmers, pastel coloured Leotards, and cow-patterned blouses. And headbands. And braces on her trousers if she's wearing any. Will usually have a top-quality wavedphone or wrist-comm to boot.

Health and Fitness fan. She still enjoys gymnastics, and acrobatics and is a regular sight jogging. She learned long ago however, that pushing herself to hard will be harmful to her health so she knows when to back off.

 +
Kotono likes her comfort. She'll spend most of money she earns, while saving small amounts away. She always wears good quality clothing, lives in a comfortable and well appointed apartment and eats good quality, healthy food which she knows how to cook properly. She doesn't have any fannish obsessions that consume it like everyone else, so ups her standard of living instead. Her Bolitho's been equipped with a luxury cabin, her apartment on Frigga has the latest comforts. She lives happy and comfy. And looks to acquire money to achieve this comfort.... she's always got her eye on the bottom line of a job.

Can be a bit of a dilettante when it comes to trying new things. She likes the 'experience' but she won't always stick through it to the end, dipping in and out as the interest takes her without dedicating herself like any fen.

 +
Also, not shy on the dating scene. As much as possible out in the arsehole of the [[Main Belt]]. Seems to want a long term relationship, but can never actually manage to keep a boyfriend for more than a short while. Whether it's a case of searching for 'Mr. Right', or just being a bit of distance, is anyone's guess.

Kotono Ito

Kotono seems to be that rare thing up here - a well adjusted and otherwise normal human being. Her sole vice seems to be a tendency toward money and consumption - but that's her and a billion other human beings. Looks a little like Linna from Bubblegum Crisis - though with hazel eyes. Kinda acts like her too....

Origin

Kotono is part of the New Wave of Fen, in that she doesn't come from a fannish background. Her parents moved to Kandor after their hometown was evacuated, and Kandor seemed like an up-and-coming place off the world at the time. They had need of language teachers and engineers, which her mother and father would gladly provide - while Kotono herself entered the city's public schooling system

She didn't get especially good grades - partly a language barrier, and partly because Kotono spend a lot of time enjoying school life. She didn't really care. However, she joined the school's Stardancing team and found her first love. Zero-G Gymnastics.

She won the Kandor championships and inter-school competitions aged 15 and aimed to go truly professional, funding her competition through work in local Gymnasium. Kotono took a few JLI qualification courses as a Fitness Instructor, Physiotherapist and Emergency Medic, qualifying her to go Pro as an instructor.

Kotono was training herself for Jeanne's Dance, 2019, when she broke her ankle after an awkward landing. Attempting to push through the pain left her with a permanent injury that required corrective surgery, putting her out of action for the year - and putting an end to her professional career.

Out of a job, she joins Survival Shot, both as an emergency medic to handle any injuries that come up, and as a fitness trainer for those few fen who just can't keep up...

History in Fenspace

It's obvious why she ended up on Frigga - there was money enough in it for her to work there.

That's it. It's really hard to say much about her beyond that. She seems to have been happy to work for Survival Shot, and spend the money she earned on clothes and good quality fresh food. [2]. She spent her time and money on her apartment, making it a comfortable place to live. She owns her own Bolitho which has been luxuriously equipped inside and seems more concerned with being comfortable in life than doing something spectacular or 'cool' for the sake of doing it...

She recently opened her own gym, the Fitness Bee, shortly after Frigga joined the Crystal Millennium and started to have a population again. And that's basically it.

Oh... she was the one who Shinji Ikari woke up to because they shared a similar cultural background.[3]

Other than that, she's really just a bit mundane for Fenspace, and not ashamed of it in the slightest.

Rumours Surrounding Kotono

Is Kotono secretly a SHIELD agent keeping an eye on Jet Jaguar?

She's been a little bit *too* under the radar for many tastes. There's something fishy about her. And you know SHIELD'd be interested in anyone who can bring that sort of lethality to bear - especially with a personality like hers. Is Kotono their eyes onsite?

Signature Gear

Fashion from the 1980's, including stuff like leg-warmers, pastel coloured Leotards, and cow-patterned blouses. And headbands. And braces on her trousers if she's wearing any. Will usually have a top-quality wavedphone or wrist-comm to boot.

Known Transports

Personality

Health and Fitness fan. She still enjoys gymnastics, and acrobatics and is a regular sight jogging. She learned long ago however, that pushing herself to hard will be harmful to her health so she knows when to back off.

Kotono likes her comfort. She'll spend most of money she earns, while saving small amounts away. She always wears good quality clothing, lives in a comfortable and well appointed apartment and eats good quality, healthy food which she knows how to cook properly. She doesn't have any fannish obsessions that consume it like everyone else, so ups her standard of living instead. Her Bolitho's been equipped with a luxury cabin, her apartment on Frigga has the latest comforts. She lives happy and comfy. And looks to acquire money to achieve this comfort.... she's always got her eye on the bottom line of a job.

Can be a bit of a dilettante when it comes to trying new things. She likes the 'experience' but she won't always stick through it to the end, dipping in and out as the interest takes her without dedicating herself like any fen.

Also, not shy on the dating scene. As much as possible out in the arsehole of the Main Belt. Seems to want a long term relationship, but can never actually manage to keep a boyfriend for more than a short while. Whether it's a case of searching for 'Mr. Right', or just being a bit of distance, is anyone's guess.

Above all else, she's comfortable with who she is, and doesn't feel the need to demonstrate her ability to choose her own life path by avoiding anyone's stereotypes.

She is, however, strong friends with Daryl Haur - oddly enough.

I guess, nobody seems to hate her. She lives a comfortable life.
