How Baiken joined the Tourney[]

During the Crusades, the nation of Japan was destroyed by the Gears. Following this, those of Japanese descent who still lived were declared cultural treasures and placed in special colonies. When Baiken was a child, the Gears attacked the Japanese Institute she was living in at the time. During the invasion, she witnessed the bloody death of her parents and other people, her right arm was severed and her left eye gouged out. Amidst the flames, she could only see the silhouette of That Man, and swore revenge on him and his creations for what they had done. She trained herself in the use of the katana, acquired an arsenal of weapons and dedicated herself to hunting That Man down.

In episode mode, in November 9, 2187, Baiken almost kills an operator who have a collect call for her by an unknown client (theorized to be Anji). The unknown client needed her to return to the colony in order to guide the authorities for their investigation. Baiken then learn more from the client about the Intel gathered and though she almost swears that she will cut him down if he hid more secrets from her. She later encounters Chipp's right hand man Answer, learning about the reasons for his visit and the Colony being likely turning into a battlefield.

Baiken is brought by May to Kum Haehyun, who is in need of assistance with the sudden illness in the colony. Baiken escorts them to a sacred tree that has had generations of ki infused into it, which will allow her to use her tuning abilities to her fullest. After confirming that Haehyun's motivations are altruistic, Baiken swears to guard her.

During the attacks happening in the Colony and Illyria, Baiken defends Haehyun with May and Chipp's right-hand man, Answer.

After defending the colony, Baiken learns of a Tournament from Answer. She heads to find a strong opponent, and hopes Yokai will give a promising lead on where to find That Man.
