Somewhere in central Italy, a very long time ago, the story begins with a lonely swan. Very far from home, famished, and desperate it came across the witch trials latest victim. In order to keep from starving to death the swan reluctantly poked around the piles of ash for something to eatable. It was that day, the swan's life was changed forever when it unknowingly consumed the char covered heart of a recently deceased witch. After its horrid meal the swan fell into a deep sleep, in it's slumber the magic of the witch's had turned the swan into a beautiful young maiden. The world of the humans seamed so marvelous, however, little did she know that this new and exiting world would just as treacherous and cruel as the one she had came from. It was not long at all before the inexperienced swan had fallen hopelessly in love with a human boy and gotten herself pregnant. In a tragic twist of fate, as she passed the baby it took with it, all the witch's magic. As the magic left her body she began to revert back into a lowly bird, the swan's pelvis was shattered, it's insides crushed by the newborn. Her lover watched in disgust as the bird gave birth to his child, realizing the great mistake he had made, he cursed the swan and begged for forgiveness from the lord. In her last breath, the swan pleaded for the safety of her child, and then her lover cut her throat out with a butchers knife. The father held the deformed child in his arms for the first time, he had planned to murder it and atone for his sin, but when he touched the newborn, the mother's dieing wish came to life in the form of a protection enchantment. The man began to feel tipsy, he found that he was suddenly having great difficulty keeping his balance and fell down to the ground, landing on the bloody butcher's knife. The baby was found covered in blood the next morning and was placed in an orphanage. The head nun that oversaw said orphanage, was a recovering alcoholic. Upon realization of the enchantment placed on the child, the wicked old nun adopted him, and would frequently touch the child in inappropriate places in order to simulate the feeling of being drunk. In the year or so the baby was in her care, the filthy old hag would get drunk on the magic three or four times a day. When she was found out and brought to the pope to answer for her sins, the child was taken away from her, and she was thrown out of the church. The nun had gotten drunk off the child so much over corse of the last year, she could no longer live without it, she was running a high fever. The following night she attempted to break into the orphanage to steal back the sleeping toddler, but after going twenty-four hours without abusing the power of the child, after doing it so often, the vile nun burst into flames from the inside, and was reduced to a pile of ash at the foot of the child's crib. After becoming heavily associated with mysterious deaths, it was widely believed the child was possessed by the devil, so no one in the area ever attempted to adopt him after that. As the child grew up in the orphanage, it seemed that it didn't quite age like other children. After living at the orphanage for thirty entire years, the child still only appeared to be eight or nine years old. The child was regarded as an abomination and a demon, he had silver hair like a demon and was always up to no good. He would convince the other children to bring him things, do things to themselves, and get themselves into trouble with the nuns, it was all very amusing to the boy. On multiple occasions the towns people formed a mob and attempted to burn the boy alive, but whenever they'd get to his room, he seemed to talk their anger and fears right out of them, and the mob was disbanded. One day the boy finally decided to leave the orphanage of his own free will, he met no objection with his request, and it's rumored they rejoiced and held some sort of celebration once he had left. The people at the orphanage had always referred to him as a thing, or a monster, he had never even received a name, so the day he left he decided from that day on, that he would be known as Romano Cigno. The following years Romano traveled from city to city using his cute, childlike outer appearance and abilities to get whatever he wanted and trick unsuspecting women into taking their clothes off. It worked out great until his body finally began to hit puberty and none of his old tricks would work anymore.Romano*fell into a deep state of depression, as the success rates of his previously irresistible tricks continued to plummet, while his attraction and appreciation for the beauty of the opposite sex only grew stronger and more unbearable. It was then that Romano abandoned his old ways, and devoted a decade of his life to learning everything there is to know about high class society, the arts, and being a perfect gentlemen. He did this all in preparation for the day when his body had finally aged enough for him to put his new found abilities to the test! He would get all the ladies now, just like he had before! The day had finally came! His body had finally aged enough and had reached the outer appearance of a sixteen year old! That night Romano partied heavily with many exotic women, for tomorrow he would leave his life long home of Italy and start a new adventure at Tenshi Jigoku Academy!
