Minako Aoki-Barran is the daughter of Imperial Knight Aoki-Barran Mira. She was seemingly abandoned by her mother, and so was raised by her great uncle, Thomas Barran, within the Scar Hounds. When the Dark Empire arose from the ashes of the New Imperial Order and Brotherhood Of The Maw, the Scar Hounds joined them. And thus, Minako joined alongside them.

"Those pesky gangsters almost undid everything!!!"HISTORY
"Keep it down, for goodness sake! You never know when the bloodhound or his darkhans are gonna show up!"
"Both of you shut up! Your stressing's gonna attract attention!"
During the early days of the Scar Hounds' exile, the Scar Hounds struggled to get by. Thomas Barran's corrupted niece, Aoki-Barran Mira, was at the time a member of the group. When an Atrisian bandit kind of noble descent realized that the Scar Hounds housed an adopted Barran and biological Aoki, he saw opportunity. He made a deal - he would provide equipment and materials for the Scar Hounds... if she agreed to carry his seed. She agreed to these terms, and the Scar Hounds began receiving much needed supplies once Mira was confirmed to be with child. However, the deal was abruptly cut short when another crime syndicate crushed the bandits, and the child's father with them. Mira went on to give birth to a daughter, whom she would name Minako. Minako was precious to Mira, and she soon became so enamored with the infant that it started to undo the brainwashing of the Scar Hounds.
In fear of de-radicalization spreading to their Khan, Thomas Barran, the Scav Kings of the Scar Hounds took unauthorized action. They brainwashed and wiped Mira's mind further, convincing her that she had never even had a child ever. The infant was thrown to the marauders, and Mira went on to serve the Scar Hounds a little further until her corruption was finally broken. When Mira defected from the Scar Hounds, the Scav Kings decided to increase their favor. They found the child and gave her to Thomas to raise . He took the girl under his wing, raising her as his own. He was completely unaware of the truth of how she got there...
Growing up, Minako was trained in a diversity of Atrisian and Gaalidraani martian arts and weaponry. Skilled with various melee and ranged weapons, as well as skilled in unarmed combat; Minako thrived as Thomas Barran's Scion. She adopted the Scar Hounds philosophy of the greater galaxy being meaningless. War, death, and rebirth was the only answer. However, she was more than happy to make her own fun in the process, and enjoyed behaving in a more childish, carefree manner.
Eventually, the Scar Hounds joined the Dark Empire, the Brotherhood Of The Maw and New Imperial Order's great successor. She would join alongside them.

STRENGTHS & WEAKNESSES
+ I Live To Fight: An adaptable and quick thinking fighter, Minako is skilled in melee weapons, ranged weapons, and her body as a weapon.
+ Warrior's Build: Despite her small size, Minako is strong and durable - but especially agile and swift.
+/- Barran's Shadow: Like her mother before her was, Minako seems somehow bound to a Barran brother's side. Raised by Thomas Barran, Minako is glued to her great uncle. While uninterested in being a scion to Thomas' crown, Minako will forever fight for him and his well being. With how strong her attachment to him is though, it could be used against her by enemies both in the greater galaxy - and in the Dark Empire's own ranks...
- Girls Just Wanna Have Fun: Minako believes that greater purpose in life is a lie, and that the only way to bring about a more meaningful galaxy is War, Death, And Rebirth. However, she is more than happy to treat the galaxy as one big game. She has her fair share of fun tearing everything apart, stealing trinkets and equipment for her own collection, and overall just being a scoundrel. In her mind, the galaxy just works this way, and she is justified to take what she wants in such a nihilistic and hedonistic universe.
- Silent Prey: Minako is haunted by her mother "abandoning" her. She ever hunts for answers as to who she was, where she is now, and why she left her. The higher ups of the Scar Hounds have done a good job at keeping her blind, and Minako is ever desperate in her life journey of finding the answers she seeks. Because her mother "left" her, Minako has deep abandonment issues and attachment issues. She is borderline dependent on Thomas Barran in her bond with him.
- Smol: Minako is a short and scrawny girl. She is as fit as she can be, but she obviously is at a disadvantage against larger and stronger enemies in the galaxy.
