More of a minor character that I 100% plan on killing off for character development purposes.

[COLOR=DARKGRAY][indent]Born in San Francisco, California, Ken Grew up in a working class family that had emigrated to the United States following World War II. Looking to assuage doubts of his loyalties, Ken’ Grandfather and Father enlisted into the United States Army and served in Vietnam, where he was both infantry and able to serve as his unit’s interpreter as he knew enough of language. Despite the hardships, he survived, relatively unscathed, and return to California to start a family. 

Ken’s father would later enlist in the Army as well, serving during the Gulf War. 

Following suit with tradition, Ken signed on in 2013, and would serve through three tours of duty in various parts of the Middle East. Is last station was supporting the final mass withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021. Shortly thereafter, he was honorably discharged, and, like his father and grandfather, started a family in Northern California. For a while he served on the SFPD before relocating to Paragon City to continue his career in law enforcement; he was, by his own admission, hungry for the action Paragon City offered in his line of work. 

However, following the death of Captain Paragon in 2050, he could no longer ignore the deep corruption within the PCPD. Unable to spark change and unwilling to go along with being in the pockets of gangs, Ken retired from police work to pursue his passion for cooking. He opened The Lucky Noodle ramen shop on the east side of Little Asia and quickly gained a loyal customer base. In this time he would be pulled back into the city’s turmoil upon meeting the young Sarah King and take her under his wing. He became a father-figure, showing her how to refine her self-defense and coach her in better controlling her power.[/indent][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DARKGRAY][INDENT]Running his ramen shop is Ken’s top priority, as is keeping it out of the hands of the Blue Dragons. He makes it a point to be a guide to the wayward youth of Little Asia and nearby Mapleview; he’s quick to offer them meals, whether for free, discounted prices, or in exchange for a bit of help opening or closing shop. Ken strives to be a positive influence in his community.
