History

Chu-i Jirou Kobayashi began practicing kendo at the age of ten and is now a renshi rokudan who routinely placed in the top ten in his division, which earns him an invite to the Combine tournament. His exception reflexes served him well in combat, and he anticipated a promotion to command a company.[1]

BattleMech
