Captain:Korinchi Rinikawa

"A merchant's job is to bring some of his homeland to the outside world, and bring some of the outside world back to his homeland."

- Korinchi Rinikawa

Korinchi Rinikawa is a male trader and a member of the powerful Rinikawa Clan of Kala'genso. While his family is well-known for their intellect and their production of many Razoa scholars, Korinchi did not take an interest in traditional scholarly disciplines while growing up, instead fascinated by the other cultures of Koldenwelt through the small trickle of outside culture that began not long before his birth. He decided to become a merchant after completing his education at age 21, embracing the opportunity to see the world and collect exotic goods from the realm of land-dwellers. His first expeditions outside of the Sovereignty gained him some prestige in Kala'genso for the exotic land goods he retrieved from near-coastal societies, though he was eventually overshadowed by his engineer sister, an event he didn't mind as he didn't enjoy the spotlight.

Thanks to the invention of the Razoan GORF, Korinchi was able to start traveling beyond the coasts of Koldenwelt and began to see the myriad cultures of inner Koldenwelt. At the age of 29, he was joined in his journeys by his sister Shiroto, who had been sent by their father to accompany Korinchi in future expeditions. While Korinchi is aware of Shiroto's controversies and that the true reason that Shiroto has joined him is because it is a covert exile organized by Shiroto's father, he is happy to be able to see his sister more often than he used to and understands that Shiroto could be a target if she were to stay in the Sovereignty.
