4. Prologue: Background - Kuro Shiro

Kuro Shiro

"Now what exactly could have you THIS afraid of someone you've never even met before?" Professor Ardence asks.

"Just… read it and you'll see… It's… demonic." Rose explains, pointing at the file. I wonder what exactly it is… Oh well, I guess it's time to find out. Ardence opens the file and begins reading.

Kuro Shiro:

Weapon:Dual katanas

Semblance:control over darkness

Weapon name:Seikyo and Hakai, Twin Swords of the Wolf.

Race:Black Wolf Faunus

Gender:Male

Age:19

Height:6' 2"

Physical attributes:Adorned with a thick head of jet black hair, his wolf ears are barely noticeable unless you try and find them. Tall and burly, he tends to be feared by his peers; however, if you get to know him, you'll actually discover that he NEEDS to be feared by his peers, but can also be very sweet and caring. His face is burly and chiseled, however he has a blemish (birthmark, though he hates to admit it) on the center of the back of his right hand. He is an expert with his dual katanas, as those are the choice weapons of his culture.

Extra Information: He is either dark and demented or surprisingly calm. There is no middle ground. His name literally means black white. No gray zone in between. From an ancient culture where last name is used first unless you know them extremely well a.k.a. Japanese.

What the Hell is Japanese? Oh well, let's keep reading.

Because of this culture, he relies on respect a lot, and will hold true to this lifestyle of respect until something blows him out of the metaphorical water. His favorite food is Steak. What, were you expecting sushi? You racist bastard!

Background Information:

Kuro Shiro's life started on a dark day in 2098. It was raining and there seemed to be darkness everywhere. A sign of the coming darkness about to be brought into this world. Trained by his father in the art of dual katanas, he quickly became a master of the art. At the age of ten, he was accepted into his family's clan of ninja warriors and was trained in the art of ninjutsu. Sent on missions of stealth in order to gain information, he quickly became fond of the dark. Perhaps that's what led to the formation of his rather unique semblance. He became friends with the only thing that could protect him during his missions and it became the only thing he could turn to. He could often be seen enveloped in a cloud of pure darkness in the corner of his family's dojo, quietly muttering nonsense to himself. The darkness twisted him into a creature of evil. It is said that a demon of darkness had come to live inside of him. He had many violent outbursts when anyone would even try to talk to him. However, during one of his outbreaks, he cut down his sister, killing her instantly. Facing his parents with a now red sword and blood stained clothes was the hardest thing he had ever done. He vowed to never again bow to the darkness that consumed him unless he needed to, and set out on a long, solitary mission of self-discovery. Now a master of katanas, ninjutsu and controlling the darkness within him, he joined a school designed to train warriors in the hopes that saving enough people will ease the darkness in his heart and ease his mind over his sister. He prefers to walk this road alone, but will work with partners if necessary or required.

BE CAREFUL:Although now very good at controlling his internal darkness, he still sometimes loses himself and sinks back into the dark form. When in this state, do not try to engage or communicate with him because he is no longer in control. It is now the so called demon that is now a part of his lifeblood. You have been warned.

"Wow. You weren't kidding about the kid being demonic. I'll have to watch him. When he gets here, put him under surveillance. We'll train him how to keep himself under control."

"You're still letting him in?! He could kill half of the school!"

"Rose. Calm down. He was accepted already. I can't do anything to stop it now. He has already been sent his letter and he expects to be in Beacon. I'm doing this to keep him from getting angry and showing up to kill even more people. It's for the best."

"Yes, sir… You're right."

"Thank you. Now, I need the last file." Rose hands him the file and walks out of his office.
