History/Bio: Yami Jensu was birthed from the unplanned pregnancy of a Goblin slave to the Jensu-Ty family, minor landholders in the fields surrounding the village of Poyo in northern Yutan. The father was unknown, and in accordance to the fine-print in their mother's servitude contract all off-springs would be free, and so Jensu was born a citizen of the Empire. They grew up and worked with their mother and the other slaves in the Jensu-Ty's household, the only difference being they could leave. When Jensu was twelve their mother had raised enough money to buy her own freedom. The Jensu-Ty's, who had always been kind slave owners, agreed and Jensu and their mother moved to the main town. Jensu had understood something that day. Their mother had struggled and worked their entire life and in the end they had gotten what they had wanted. They were free. Hard work could get you anywhere, Jensu realized. And it was this view that drove the rest of their life.
Growing up as a Goblin, a race most often associated with the image of a Snow Oni tying them up in a sack and throwing them in a mine, Jensu faced some measure of harassment. Especially considering they worked in low-class positions for most of their teen years, which ranged from housekeeping to a short-lived janitorial career. To avoid kidnappings and illegal selling, a common practice even in the Yutan mainland, Jensu trained hard in their free time to focus their chi and practice defensive combat, a focus that would carry on in the jobs they performed. By the age of sixteen Jensu had moved onto the docks, Poyo's biggest source of trade and money. The port was populated by Poyo's poorest and toughest, and a small goblin was rejected at almost every job opening they tried to for. Eventually though Bako Babu, the owner of a small dock and trading vessel, gave them a chance and they became a dock-worker. Their commitment, focus, and the strength from years of Chi training made them not only an equal but superior in skill to most of their coworkers, and soon Bako offered them a chance, a real chance, to go somewhere in life. Captain Veng of the Imperial Trading Company had arrived in Poyo looking for additional crew after his ship: the Chorus had been hit by a maelstrom in the Full Moon Sea. Babu managed to get the twenty year old Jensu a position as a deck-hand and before they knew it they were aboard the Chorus, leaving Poyo far behind.
The next ten years of Jensu's life were a roller-coaster. Aboard the Chorus they saw it all: friendship, romance, betrayal, drama; while outside the journey continued, Captain Veng fearlessly leading his crew across the seas to help ensure the Empire's economy flowed. They went to strange lands, fought pirates, escaped war-zones, found treasures - every seafaring adventure one could imagine the Chorus had been through. It wasn't all fun though, in fact most of it was hard work, especially on Jensu's part. But it payed off. Their skill and commitment rose them through the ranks until they became Third Officer of the Chorus: the fifth Goblin to ever achieve the rank in the Imperial Trading Company. Most wouldn't have let them come so far, but Captain Veng was a good-man. A mentor, a master, and a friend. Of course, the day after they were promoted the Chorus found itself surrounded by the Yune navy and forcibly escorted to Yuna-Yae where Captain Veng was accused and tried for illegal smuggling and war-crimes. In light of the case the Chorus was grounded and it's crew dispersed among the company. Jensu was assigned to the Baggot, and it's captain was not as open minded as Veng. Despite their former position and outstanding record the now thirty year old Jensu was made a deck-hand after being the third most powerful person in the company's former most powerful ship. And so they quit and bought their own boat, a small junk named the Milkweed.
For the last five years Jensu has Captained the Milkweed, it's small size letting it easily navigate through the tight rivers of mainland Yutan, allowing it to reach many towns typically out of range for sea-fairing vessels. Money isn't exactly flowing but Jensu continues to ship trade port to port, and can consistently able to find new contracts and work.
Home Town: Poyo
Home Country: Yune Empire
Personality: Jensu believes hard and constant work are the keys to success, a theory which their own life haven't quite proved yet. Jensu isn't happy, but they managed to be a happy person to those they meet. Their life at sea has made them a bit worn of the world though, and they haven't been seen without a pint in their hands for the past few years. Their adventures have also made them believe they know how the world and everything in it operates, which they do somewhat, but not nearly to the extent they think.
Fears and Desires: They fear being stuck in the same: staying where they are until the day they die, and lusts for success more than anything. To Captain a ship like Veng had and live in comfort and prosperity. Like all Goblin's they do have a weakness for gold, and does have an instinctual desire for it.
Equipment and Weapons: Jensu carries a small knife but nothing else, as their training is usual enough to defeat attackers. They and their Fire Oni first mate Matsyan crew the Milkweed sketched below:

Chi and Augmentations: Jensu has trained to have their Chi greatly increase their focus, speed, and agility.
