Colt 1911 .45 with suppressor. When 9mm just isn't enough.

Apprentice Hidden Blade
bYWoQCj.jpg


A simple hidden blade that is given to Assassins while they are apprentices.


Personality: The man has a very high tolerance for most matter and doesn't become angered easily when in reality he's just bottling it all up inside to be used as fuel for later. He's got a strong sense of justice but sometimes this can show some of his actions to hail from a cold heart. He enjoys a drink every now and then and he'd rather prefer not to be receiving scowls but has learned to deal with such treatments.

History: Clark Walker was born into the Templar Order as his parents were both members of the order. Despite being raised in this environment as Clark grew up what the order stood for never really sat well with how Clark thought people should live their lives. Everyone deserves to have a choice at the very least. Thinking he was just going through some rebellious stage in life he wasn't taken seriously...that is until Clark escaped the Templar Order at the age of twenty; additionally having killed two novice Templar who sought to bring him back.

It was about half a year after that period of time that he was picked up by the Assassins as during that whole time he'd himself been trying to reach out to them. It doesn't take much imagination to figure out that this transition never fully smoothed over as despite being apart of the Assassins for about five years now they'd never consider moving him to a rank above Novice despite his experience or skills so that a superior could always keep an eye on him as most within the Assassins do not trust the ex-Templar one bit and sadly how could he blame them. To this day Clark is still amazed they didn't just kill him after they were done questioning him but the resentment from that first day has been stitched into him with his codename, 'Stray.' Over the years he's even been unfairly limited in the equipment he's able to operate with. Clark has just seen it as a way to learn to become more reliant on himself and not fancy equipment or others.

tumblr_ow6xzhyi5y1rgi7i7o2_500.jpg

Personality:
Danny is usual an "go with the flow" and takes advantage of her insane amount of luck that she has. Winging majority of her decisions when she is unsure of what to do, but when she has to take charge and has to make one she's able to get the job done, even if the plan has some holes. She likes to play it loose and see where the road takes her, though she looks out for herself majority but will look out for others.

When it comes to Danny, you either hate her or you love her even if she comes off an total asshole. To lighten the mood every once in a while she may need to crack a joke or two, being that sarcasm is one of her few good qualities. She's a work in progress and will learn along the way.


History:
Danny grew up in foster care, jumping from one group home to the next due to her disobedience and opposing views of the system. Constantly running away, joining the wrong crowds, learning to move through and see her city in a new way. Whether it running from shitheads, crashing parties, or even playing hooky everything just felt... right to her. Though her pleasures obviously came with consequences, her file becoming bigger the more she acted out.

Once graduating high school, it was hard to get even a small job due to her record. Turning to gangs and stealing money and goods from stores to live off made her faster and stronger, running from cops, keeping herself from being on the grid, hiding her face. Up until she met a particular contact giving her a job that would get her more money than any gang had; telling her where to meet for the file, who the target was, when to take them out, etc. etc. To her luck, she succeeded and met her contact in person.

Karasu is a master at hand to hand combat and the field of martial arts. He has an extensive arsenal of fighting styles which include; Akido, Judo, Jiu-Jitsu, Taekwondo, Kenjutsu, Kyūdō, and all eighteen disciplines of Ninjustu, which he was taught and mastered before he was twelve years old. He's also shown refined fighting techniques, applying characteristics of Muay Thai, Karate, Savate, and Wing Chun. His skills in hand to hand in conjunction with his abilities in Ninjutsu would make him one of the Japanese Brotherhood's deadliest, and most efficient of assassins, quickly promoting him in time to the rank of Assassin, and considered to be on-par with most masters. He is probably the most skilled fighter and operative in the whole of his Brotherhood, and was considered to become a Master at one point. But due to his vow of silence, he has been denied this opportunity.

Personality:
Due to the fact that Karasu never speaks, he is very mysterious. However he is clearly a man who keeps his promises and after his mother was killed he took a vow of silence, and communicates through hand gestures instead of words, and doesn't respond to his legal name. He has the demeanor and wisdom of a man far older than himself, an understanding of the world around him and the balance of power within it. He adopts a tranquil nature, free flowing most of the time, but unforgiving and crushing when roused.

History:
Often known by the moniker Karasu(Raven), is an elite Assassin of the Japanese Brotherhood of Assassins. Born into the order, he is one of the most loyal and skilled operators among them.

Karasu was born to the Templar Michael Yasuke and Midori Sakura, a Master Assassin of the Japanese Brotherhood. In 1995, Michael would attempt to abduct and three year old Adrian during a Templar assault on the Order's hideout. He would be thwarted by Midori who used her skills in Ninjutsu to disable him with a staff by striking pressure points. The lasting invasion would leave the Japanese Brotherhood crippled, and forced them to flee and relocate to Myōryū-ji, a Bhuddist temple belonging to Nichiren sect.

Two years later, all but destroyed, the Assassins would induct new trainees, Adrian among them, and began training them extensively throughout their childhoods. The losses during the attack left them vulnerable to an extreme, leading to the Order having steel their initiates through harsher training with a focus point on being able to defend oneself, and expected the unexpected always. Rather than continuously train them in standard Japanese martial arts; Akido, Judo, Jiu-Jitsu, Taekwondo, Kenjutsu, Kyūdō, they advanced their studies in combat to teaching Ninjutsu and made it requirement to master all eighteen of its disciplines as the standard in order to be officially inducted. Aiden's brilliance and skill in training would see him master Ninjutsu and it's disciplines before he was twelve years old, and officially inducted as one of the youngest recruits in the whole of his Brotherhood and win him the chance for more training.

By age fourteen, the then-Novice assassin Adrian would accompany his mother in a group mission to assassinate Michael Yasuke. The team would infiltrate the area with ease, and the compound without detection. However, upon reaching Midori and Adrian reaching Michael in his quarters, he activated a fail safe alarm as Midori struck him down. Before his last breath, Michael managed to shoot Midori in the throat using a concealed handgun that sounded a full alarm throughout the facility. Adrian and the other initiates would recover his mother and escape the facility, setting off pre-placed demolition charges set beneath the structure to cover their tracks. In the wake of their extraction, Midori would die from blood loss and the trauma of her loss would 'cause Adrian to take a vow of silence. Despite the loss of their senior assassin, the Mentor of their branch commended Adrian for their performance in infiltrating and extracting with the majority of their numbers. From that point forward, Adrian would continue participating and eventually leading a long campaign hunting Templars that would lead him across the world.

His professionalism and lethal efficiency would earn him the moniker Karasu, Raven, due to his mysterious and dark demeanor during assassinations. The Japanese Brotherhood would eventually release and reassign him to a new branch where he now acts as one of the leading assassins.

Name:
Michael Yasuke

Age/DOB:
August 15, 1950

DOD/Death:
November 30, 2006

Place of Birth:
Osaka, Japan

Faction:
Templar Order

History:
Michael is a direct descendant from Yasuke, the first African American samurai who served under the Japanese hegemony and warlord Oda Nobunaga. Since birth, he's served the Templar Order loyally as a child following their beliefs to a T. In the civilian word he served with Japanese Special Forces respectively as long as he's been a Templar, becoming a highly decorated soldier in both professions. He'd meet Midori on shore leave where they quickly formed a connection and would over the years fall for one another, leading to Adrian being conceived. His duty to the Templars would keep him distant from Midori and his son, not to meet one another until much later during an invasion.

Michael would later meet his end at the hands of his ex-lover, but not before taking her life as well.

Place of Birth:
Tokyo, Japan

Faction:
Assassins

History:
Midori was a Master Assassin in the Japanese Brotherhood. Shortly after her birth, she lost her mother to suicide and her father being tight on money put her up for adoption. She was quickly adopted after five months by the Mentor of the Brotherhood and trained extensively to become one of their best operatives. Later in the years, she would meet and fall for Michael Yasuke, a Templar enforcer, during his shore leave from his military service. Years following they would form a close relationship leading to Adrian's conception. Some time later the two would go their complete separate ways upon discovering each other's identities.

Years later she would see Michael again only to thwart his attempt at abducting Adrian during an assault on the Assassin hideaway. After relocating she would personally mentor Adrian during his training until age fourteen. Months after, she and Adrian would embark on a group mission to assassinate Michael. The mission would prove a success at the cost of her life.

Name:
Yasuke

Age/DOB:
Unknown

DOD/Death:
Unknown

Faction:
Templar Order

History:
Yasuke was a samurai of black African origin who served under the Japanese hegemony and warlord Oda Nobunaga in 1581 and 1582. Yasuke arrived in Japan in 1579 in the service of the Italian Jesuit Alessandro Valignano; a Templar, who had been appointed the Visitor (inspector) of the Jesuit missions in the Indies, meaning East Africa, South and East Asia. Sometime later, Yasuke would visit Nobunaga at his castle and would be ennobled. He would use this to spread the influence of the Templar Order.

In June 1582, Nobunaga was attacked and forced to commit seppuku in Honnō-ji in Kyoto by the army of Akechi Mitsuhide. Yasuke was also there at the time and fought the Akechi forces. Immediately after Nobunaga's death, Yasuke went to join Nobunaga's heir Oda Nobutada who was trying to rally the Oda forces at Nijō Castle. Yasuke fought alongside the Nobutada forces for a long time but eventually surrendered his sword to Akechi's men. They asked Akechi himself what to do with him. Akechi said that the black man was a beast and did not know anything, and furthermore, he was not Japanese, so they should not kill him but take him to the nanban-dera or nanban-ji.
