History

Story: Ryuu was born to Manamiand Takahiro his mother Manami a wielder of magics, and his father a dutiful swordsman for hire. Though that all ended at his birth, finding it time to leave their lives as what they were behind. Though he has no memory of this he was born Serbasta though he grew up amongst his family and clanmates in the western plains. His Father has told him the story of how they ended up here, and with great detail. His family had found that the slums of the city weren't right for their child, and gathering their closest friends and relatives they left the safety of the city behind for the plains. Though to Ryuu this didn't make any sense, and as explained they did this more so because they could make a living hunting the creatures here and selling pelts for provisions and needed materials. This life though a harsh one, everyone banded together and seemed to adapt to it, even Ryuu enjoyed his time on the plains.

Ryuu grew fast, and soon enough he came of age, and with that his father decided he was ready to learn the trades he himself was taught by his father, Ryuu and his father left the safety of their encampment, for several weeks Ryuu and his father spent their time training and hunting what creatures they found to be challenging, until the day Takahiro found his son to be ready for the trails of the world. Ryuu was given the armor his father had worn, and the heirloom of the clan the Eye of the clan a necklace with a blood-red stone set in the middle the sign of a new leader rising, and the Demon-horned headband that had been passed down through his family. This was to be his calling, to take over for his father, but that day never came.

A few years after his sixteenth birthday Ryuu nineteen and about to accept his father's wishes as the new clan leader a troop of bandits raided their small clan, in the darkness of night and the unexpected turn of events chaos broke out, and soon many of Ryuu's family and friends laid dead before his eyes, even his father, the once strong warrior was tiring from the battle and stuck down, his mother; his mother not so lucky used as a plaything for the men and then killed in cold blood. Ryuu found strength in his anger gripping the two swords he was gifted early that day he rose and by storm killed as many as he could, before he himself was brought down, on his knees hands bound behind his back Ryuu spat in the face of his captors, though with the proving of his strength and besting many of the bandits he was released and sent off on his own. Ryuu could see he was no match for them in his current state, leaving the corpses and ruins of his old life behind. Ryuu became a sword for hire, wanting to better himself for the day he could find those same bandits and kill them all, willing to sacrifice what he knew was right for vengeance.
