Jacob
Jacob "Leaping Tiger" Kongo was born in Houston, Texas. His father was studying engineering abroad from Japan at Houston's Cullen College of Engineering, where he met Jacob's mother who was an engineering student.
His father hails from a wealthy Japanese family that founded and owns a semiconductor manufacturing company, Kongo Semiconductor. Jacob's parents married after finishing school and shortly after he was born the family moved to Tokyo, Japan. In Japan, Jacob studied karate at the Kyokushin Karate Honbu Dojo in Tokyo, and kenjutsu at the Yagyu Shinkage-ryu school.
Recently, Jacob moved to Houston to open a karate dojo and take on American students.
- Kyokushin Karate Sensei - Jacob holds a 3rd Dan (degree) black belt and came to Houston to open a dojo and take on new students.
- Training - It is not unusual to see Jacob out running or performing martial arts kata in a park.
- Street justice - Jacob is a vigilante. Yes, a rich guy who spends his nights in a costume beating violent criminals up.
- Recreation - On the rare occasion Jacob goes out he will generally sit in the VIP section of a club, order expensive bottles of liquor but not drink any of it himself. Straight edge?
- Fight Club - Jacob likes to keep sharp by entering matches in underground "fight clubs" that happen from time to time. He feels it is better training than sparring where punches and kicks are pulled.
I'm open to all sorts of roleplay but will not engage in endless X sips his drink, Y raises his brow scenes for too long.
