Mr. Tachibana (story)

Mr. Tachibana is the first story in The Jokers-verse. It will be written by Jesse Loon. The story will serve as the introduction to Mr. Tachibana, a galactic arms dealer, entrepreneur, gambler and bounty hunter, and will focus primarily around him.

The plot involves Mr. Tachibana being recruited by TITAN Senior Commander Riley Rose to apprehend Gary Blackburn, a TITAN-X who went rogue during the Attack on the Scarlet Research Facility on Tinixia II.

Summary
In a galaxy ruled by an eclipsing force, a JOKER known as Mr. Tachibana has traveled far and wide as a gambler, bounty hunter and now as an entrepreneur and arms dealer. In his ventures, he was able to establish The Armoury as his main business, selling weapons and military-grade equipment to numerous criminal organizations and even the Eclipse Military. However, having tangled with the Nakamura Crime Family, this venture was lost and forced to enter hiding.

Now in 2050, Mr. Tachibana is approached and recommended by a close associate within Eclipse Special Operations to take on a bounty to capture a rogue Special Forces TITAN-X soldier, while also fighting off other bounty hunters and fellow Jokers. He accepts the recommendation in an effort to re-establish The Armoury.
