Jinkyoku Tenno

Jinkyoku Tenno is the 128th Empress of Japan in the Cyberpunk universe. She ascended the throne in 2019, at the age of 13. After Shinka Tenno changed the laws to allow women to become Emperors, she was able able to ascend the throne. However her age would have prevented that, if it hadn't been for the fact she was the only one next in line after a disaster occurred of 2014 to 2019. She was the first woman of her age to become the Empress (Tenno) of Japan, and was the youngest to ever ascend the throne.

Jinkyoku was very popular with the general public, as well as the younger Japanese people. Her young age posed a problem, because she had no practical experience and knew nothing about her position. Her cousin Kazuraki-no-Miya Kunihito became the Regent to ensure she would be able to succeed in her role as the Empress.

The previous Empress of Japan was  Go-Sakuramachi. She was the 117th Emperor of Japan. She reigned from 1762 CE till her abdication in 1771 CE in favor of her nephew, Emperor Go-Momozono.
