History
His childhood was mixed, a good home, but being provoked into fights at school and outside it. Despite that, he did well enough to continue his studies, his Japanese father and American mother supporting him all the way, teaching him to cook, do household things, along with things pertaining to the outdoors. In high school, he continued his love of football (soccer), and was on that team primarily, though also in physical education and track.
A shooting would happen near the school one day after he walked, a small glimpse into a larger way of life. An international criminal had been on the run, but Interpol agents had shot him and were taking him away. It was watching all of that, that sparked what he wished to be...to rise above what he was, and become someone who could make a difference.
Graduating from high school with good grades, he took his earthly things, and bid his parents farewell at 18, heading out into the world, searching for Interpol. His travels would take him through Tokyo, and across the sea to America...where he finally stumbled across an agent in a diner...they got to talking, since the man understood Japanese, and he saw potential, bringing him back to their Headquarters. Then he went through the process of becoming an agent, learning English, four years of college, martial arts training, and any other things necessary.
It was about the turn of the century that he became a full Interpol agent, with the license to kill. He ended up running a lot of cases over the next couple of years...until a big one came. They had lost contact with an operative inside the terrorist organization Shocker...and he was selected to go in. He chose the guise of a weapons dealer, and delivered his shipment to the Shocker base. But they would find out his identity, thanks to the operative was a double-agent scientist...and he was taken captive.
They tortured him, he wouldn't reveal anything...so instead they knocked him out and after reviewing his vitals...he was determined to be a candidate for becoming a remodeled human. It fell to the double-agent to do it....but this woman held remorse for having done what she did...and she conducted the process in her own way....completing it later, and being there when he woke up, filling him in on what happened quickly before sending him on his way to sneak out of the base...and so he did, until he got outside. There, his first battle would be.
After that, he'd continue on, watching as the world unfolded into a new age...an age of technology, and an age of kaijin attacks increasing. More cases would happen through the years. And he still works as an agent in the present day, though he has taken steps to start learning about technology... he's also worked with and met other Interpol agents and other contacts...but those are stories for another time.

Sample RP: Taki whirled on his boot, adrenaline rushing through him, blocking out the pain as two Shocker monsters and a number of minions confronted him. "It's time to see if what she did worked." he said simply, charging in and dispatching each minion with a well placed kick, in human form.
Ducking under a strike, and a kick, he pulled up his shirt, exposing his belt and forming his armor, holding his helmet in his hands as he kicked the two kaijin back, snapping on the helmet and faceguard, forming a pose of his own.
----
"Rider Kick!"
Would be heard, instinctively, from him later, as he destroyed the final Kaijin...and went to the hiding place that he'd been instructed to. Finding the sleek black bike there that she had told him about, he started up, revved up, and accelerated away.
