Jubei Iori

**Jubei Iori**, ace detective, was an extremely prominent international detective who worked for INTERPOL in the late 2000s and 2010s. His accomplishments mainly related to international corruption and conspiracy, though he is mainly notable for his efforts in exposing corruption within the United Nations Security Council for their illegal involvement with numerous global criminals, most notable the Tropican Cartel and the Outer Havenite Mercenary League.

## Background

Jubei Iori was born at some point in mid-1996 in Wales, England, abandoned by his parents on the doorstep of an orphanage shortly after his birth. Despite efforts of the orphanage, and decades later Jubei himself, his parents were never found, and it is unknown why they abandoned him. Nonetheless, the orphanage still had room to spare and took him in its care for most of his juvenile life. However, unbeknownst to the public, this orphanage was dedicated to raising children and teenagers who had been seen to have remarkable gifts, such as high level IQ scores and extremely expedient learning abilities.

### Childhood

In 2005, the Martian Empire staged a global invasion of the Earth, causing mass destruction on a global scale. The United Kingdom was not hit as hard as priority targets of the invaders such as France, the United States, and China, but the Martians that landed still raised chaos on the southeastern seaboard of England. However, the Martians managed to secure a foothold and marched northward, reaching all the way to London before IPF forces managed to provide much needed reinforcements to turn the tide for the local defenders.

The Welsh Oprhanage Jubei still lived in escaped largely unscathed, as Martians only managed to send raiders who focused on damaging military targets in the area, ignoring most civilian structures. After the Martian occupiers were driven out, Jubei walked through his town to see the destruction left in their wake, seeing dozens if not hundreds of residents left homeless, impoverished, and famished. Upon seeing a mother and her one child sitting on the street, he went to a nearby market and purchased a supply of food and water for the two, spending all his allowance due to the inflated prices.

Jubei gave the pair a bag of supplies and wished them well, to which the mother thanked him profusely. However, the moment the three shared was immediately interrupted when a young man rushed by and snatched the small can which held a precious few donations passersby had provided for her. Acting on instinct, Jubei chased down the man, following him two blocks before tripping over a ruined sidewalk and busting his nose. Still, he managed himself up and kept his pain down, though the thief was now long gone.

Before returning to the orphanage, Jubei saw and approached a patrolling police officer, and requested that he find the bandit, though the officer brushed his complaints off as being unimportant compared to the more major criminals causing trouble throughout the city. Jubei, who had been raised to see police as stalwart seekers of justice, was highly shocked by this, and he returned to his home solemnly.

After reaching the orphanage, he was thoroughly scolded by the caretakers there for being out hours past the orphanage's curfew. He accepted his punishment, to clean the kitchen after dinner that night, washing dozens of dishes alone and going that night without a Mars bar. However, he endured this with little complaint, as he had gained a new resolve after having thought about the events of the day. Wishing to use the talents the orphanage was cultivating, Jubei became determined to become a seeker of truth, dedicated to bringing criminals of all stripes to justice across the globe.
