Takamatsu Sadamistu no kami Tadayoshi (called Taka for short, like everything else ... ) had nothing better to do than to go sailing to distant lands. Landing at the fair shores of Trimaris, he decided to stay and call it home. Surprising himself (and everybody who knows him) it turns out that Taka is very linguistic (cunningly so) and it isn't very long that he can actually sound like a native-born Trimarian. Coming to the attention of Duke Baldar (via the EEOC; seems His Grace needed a minority and Japanese was good enough) Taka was asked to join the great household Asgard. Hesitating for about an hour or so, Taka accepted and the rest, as they say, has been one regret after another for His Grace. Obviously, Duke Baldar hasn't learned his lesson and has invited other Japanese personae into Asgard. Oh well.

Taka currently is on an enforced absence but hopes to be back soon swinging sticks and flirting with the ladies.
