Profile: When Walker joined the ESF and fought against Kinji to earn rights into the crew, Kinji lost but did so with an appreciation for the man, and decided to introduce him to her husband Bean Kenzaki. Bean was a solitary sort, with Ninjutsu being his trade, and he seemed very much the mercenary man. Vent told that Bean was offered to the ESF several times, but he refused them, insisting on remaining neutral in all things but his wife's safety. He remained an ally of the ESF however, and assisted them whenever possible, and this went also for the UGoI when Bean declined to join the UGoI as well. This was how things went, until such time as the ESF came to a fall, as Vent left them with half the team scattering, and UGoI reflecting very much this when Shai left with her's.

A broken man, Walker felt it was time to don his ESF badge only in memry (Ex-ESF Walker Akero, he'd say) until such time as he was approached by Bean. When Bean heard of what happened by Walker, he was moved. He was moved from the injustice that would go on, and moved that Walker would still fight it albeit more solitary. And in this darkest hour, Bean Bandit shook off his neutrality, and finally took a step in. Not to merely join the crumbled roster of the UGoI or the ESF, but rather instead made a new plan: He would join the ESF and take it over as the new leader for those still remained, and Walker would do the same for the fallen UGoI. Then, the two guilds would be merged into one--the New UGoI-ESF. And with this idea set into motion, Walker contacted the other three--Rahan, Mike, and Tux, and it was so.

The New UGoI-ESf upheld everything the previous guilds stood for, and then took it a step farther. No longer looking to be a small band from either side, or a thing of only defense, their attentions turned on the scattering of enemies before them--the evil-ESF, the Orochi, and the DSW. These massive guilds were both surprised and a little on the edge by their reappearance, and in fact the Orochi backed away alltogether for a time. While Bean lead the ESF, the other four began the construction of the Tank Battalion, and became each Platoon Leaders for their squads. They moved their operations not only into Anime Gaming once more, expanding the ESF HQ to have room for it's new Tank Squad, but also to the land Mike Giovanni kept mentioning, called Rhy'Din.

The ESF became something of the elite. While the normal UGoI members were tasked with being moral enforcers for the world--cops, in their own right--the ESF were more like the SWAT Team, mirroring how the guilds ran in their hay-day, with the UGoI largely being divided up between combatants and non-coms, and the ESF being full-on tactical powerhouses. The Tank Battalion--at this time grandly unnamed--was (and is) also considered part of the ESF section, albeit more like the SWAT Team to the SWAT Team--a Super-SWAT team, if you will. Bean and Walker recruited new, trustworthy sorts into each of their areas, and Bean went to maintain Anime Gaming while Walker made discoveries and changes in Rhy'Din, occasionally meeting up or switching places as they felt like it. Many of the teams met each other and became friends.

When the DSW was defeated, and the Orochi--lead by the former UGoI member Kriz that left when Shai did--came to sign a treaty of peace (not having realized there were two different ESFS--one good and one evil)--and the evil-ESF soon crushed by Bean's forces thereafter, the Anime Gaming community was more or less left in ruin. What was one a new city full of quality and inspiration was now a darkened, bleak land full of broken memories, and Bean's place in it shortly faded thereafter. He attempted to make a place in the Rhy'Din community Walker had built up, including being there for the merging of the UGoI-ESF with the guild that also lost it's respectable leader--the Night Parade (which the aforementioned Tank Battalion got named to reflect it), but by 2003, Bean Kenzaki has, like many others, faded into obscurity.

Personality: Bean was originally very arrogant, and very sure of himself. He shattered Vent's leg in their fighting tournament and was very confident about beating Walker in the finals. Interestingly enough, he was angered by Trunks having Goten interfere in the fight and demanded that Goten stop. When Walker rescued Bean from injury and/or death, Bean began to doubt his former training. He also stated that he was not a killer, and had no desire to replace other Ninja as an assassin. Bean became more of an honorable fighter, disdaining the use of weapons and other tricks and preferring to win his fights fairly, using only his own skills and chi powers. Bean's closest friend and constant sidekick is the diminutive Kiroi Jome. The two are inseparable and are often found together. Bean is very protective of him, and will do his best to keep him out of harm's way.
