Masayo Washio is a character in Just Cause 2.
Career
Masayo Washio has lived in the shadow of his great warrior father Etsuo Washio since childhood. Like his father, Washio joined the army at 15. But so far for him there has been no battles, no glory. Japans peacetime army has acted only to save earthquake survivors.
But the tune is changing. China will soon be on the march - and the Japanese government is sharp enough to know that if they don´t make a stand now they will be washed away with Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore and the rest before the US and Russia dare call a halt to the expansion.
So Japan's army is being secretly re-awakened. Panau is going to be the line in the sand. But it must appear at first to be a popular rebellion. Which is why Washio has forged an alliance with Sri Irawan and his tribesmen. By promising them independence on the New Panau, the Japanese will use their might to take the reins of the government. And once in power the large indigenous Japanese population can be directed to vote for secession to Japan.
He served long after World War Two and probably wouldn't know anything about the facility on Hantu Island.
His specialty were satellite guided missiles. By the time of the mission "Three Kings", he was no longer directly working for the Japanese military, so it's unknown if those missiles belong to the Japanese military. However, he was representing the nation of Japan.
He was killed by Rico Rodriguez and Tom Sheldon.
