Chapter 10: Agent Maseo Yamashiro AKA Sarab

DCU-DCU-DCU-DCU-DCU-DCU

NAME: Agent Maseo Yamashiro AKA Sarab

I used the majority of the character as he was presented in the Arrowverse. He will change in my story just because of how the story plot has changed. But I like him as he is. The DCU character was mostly in the sword Soultaker.

ORIGIN:

Maseo is an agent of ARGUS who is working in Hong Kong at the direction of Amanda Waller. He is cleaning up some of Waller's past operational problems. He is not entirely comfortable with how Waller handles the organization. But he prefers to keep his family safe… from Waller.

Maseo made a deal with Waller. Maseo would deal with Chien Na Wei. Once she was dealt with, the Yamashiros would be able to return to Japan. Which is why he has kept them close to him, even in China. He feels that he is better able to protect them if he is nearby.

Maseo is made aware of the League helping his investigations into Chien Na Wei. He is not aware of why he is receiving this assistance, but he finds the help welcome and is more than willing to keep them a secret from Waller to help resolve the case. He finds the help of the League to be less offensive than working with Waller.

Maseo has not been able to link up the League with the League of Assassins that he has heard about through ARGUS. The two organizations are vastly different in his mind and in how they do business.

FAMILY:

Maseo Yamashiro is the husband of Tatsu and the father of Akio.

Maseo has a brother, Takeo who has become Yakuza. Takeo resents his brother. Because of his Yakuza affiliation, the Yamashiro family has disowned Takeo.

MOTIVATION:

Maseo is motivated by a strong protective instinct. First to protect his family. Second to protect the innocents. He believes strongly in the mission… as stated… by ARGUS. He doesn't like how Waller carries out the mission.

PERSONALITY:

Maseo is a quiet yet forceful personality. He is strong, yet resilient. He depends on his wife for her support and frequently discusses his difficulties with Waller… without revealing classified details… with her. He loves and supports his son unconditionally.

NOTES:

Because of how my storyline in this AU is set up, Maseo is not Oliver's trainer. But he will come into contact with him throughout his duties.
