Japan will be our home again." - Fūjin Ronin "The Coalition is a virus with a vision and rhetoric that infects all it touches. We will cure Japan of this sickness." - Fūjin Ronin <br> ### Description During the late 2040s, a military coup successfully overthrew the Japanese government, led by the Japanese Self-Defense Forces and [[Col. Hamasaki Nayomi|Hamasaki Nayomi's]] [[Nova Group]]. They swore their loyalty to the [[Thousand Petals Coalition]], and Japan became a major voice within the organization. The Coalition's occupation of Japan was met with a quiet resistance. Many opposed their rule, however few possessed the means to fight their occupiers. One group that rose up was the Fūjin Ronin Battalion. A partisan military group made up of soldiers from all branches of the Japanese Self-Defense Forces, the Fūjin Ronin is resolute in their determination to take back their home at all costs. Until that day comes, the Fūjin Ronin have chosen exile. The militia has been welcomed as a member of the [[Mandate of Nations|Mandate of Nations']] armed forces. Their name, "Fūjin Ronin," comes from the Japanese God of Wind, whose winds once created the typhoons that protected Japan from the Mongols - a sign that Japan was guarded by supernatural forces. These Ronin, warriors without a home, will be the typhoon to protect their home from the Coalition invaders.
