Biography

Born Jacob Shimabukuro, Kaze lives for Hope and Duty. He learned hope from his mother's refusal to give up faith when his father cheated on her and left her alone to die a painful, lingering death from cancer when he was 12. He learned duty and honor from his grieving, octogenarian, paternal grandfather, "The Colonel", who never let him sit around, instead training him to be diligent every day to do whatever could be done, not quitting when a goal seems unfairly unattainable. Jake needed both while he sat out of football, injured for his first two years in college. He drew on his mother's beliefs and hope and his grandfather's commitment to duty and service, battling despair when his scholarship was dropped without finishing college, and when his grandfather died. When he had the Dream, and put his name in the watch tower of the Golden Key, and was inculcated into the order of the Adamantine Arrow, the hope and spiritual beliefs of his mother resonated with the Path of the Obrimos, and the commitment to duty and honor of his grandfather prepared him for righteous service in the Order of the Adamantine Arrow.
