Character Bios: Yoki

Yoki was in charge of the mines in Youswell and was a very corrupt manwho rose to his position through massive bribes. His influence on the people of Youswell was profoundly negative: not only did he levy heavy taxes on the people, he also lowered their wages, virtually bankrupting the city residents.

Edward was assigned to his second mission as a State Alchemist in Youswell. While he and Al were staying there, Edward discovered that the city was in dire straits, and managed to expose Yoki as a con artist by purchasing the title to the town with a large amount of gold (which later was discovered to be rocks). After Yoki's exposure, General Hakuro promoted Mustang and Hawkeye and reassigned them to the Eastern Command Center to help clean up the mess left by Yoki. Ending up at a Ishablan refugee camp, Yoki gained the attention of the state military by informing them that Scar was living amongst the refugees, with the intention of being awarded back his position in the military. Secure in the hands of the State he began lording it over his old camp-mates only to be killed by Lust, who used her lightning-quick finger-lances to repeatedly stab him, making it appear as though he had been shot. This spectacle caused widespread panic and chaos, creating the illusion that the Ishbalans were shooting at the soldiers and Yoki was killed in the crossfire.
