Personality: Takeru is an assassin through and through, his job is to kill and coerce, it’s what he does well. He has a silver tongue when he wants, and when he doesn’t, he has a tendency to be an ass. Though he does have a strong sense of compassion due to his upbringing. He CAN work with others but prefers solo work. Though if the League thinks he’s better in a team, so be it.
Powers: Shadow step, a short distance teleportation that lands him behind or above a target, or simply moves him 20 ft. instantly, also has abnormal reaction times and physical strength and speed due to his long life of combat training, his body is attuned to heated fights as well, giving him a level head when it hits the fan.Takeru has martial arts training so he has many kicks and other moves to compliment his lethal twinblade fighting style. Also has “Raven wings” That appear when he glides or attempts to fly, which he can do for a short distance. Then he simply glides back to the ground.
Weapons: A katana and cruciform blade, both made of a black metallic alloy, near indestructible and razor sharp. Throwing knives that he carries as his means of finishing a fleeing target. These knives are made of the same alloy his swords are. The name of the alloy is unknown but it is as black as Ebony, yet as tough as diamond.
History: Takeru was born in America, abandoned before he had a name he was raised by a Japanese family in uptown New York, hence his name and one reason why he was able to join the League and its school. His father was huge in the Stock Market, so money would never have been an issue, especially since father was aided by his mother’s exploits in the field of bio-engineering. Since childhood his father knew of the League, and saw Takeru’s potential due to his high intelligence and natural fit build. So he began having him trained in various martial arts and sword styles, easily finding he was proficient with cruciform blades and katanas, leading to his current dual-wielding style which uses the aforementioned blade types in a style that makes the cruciform a defensive weapon and the katana is used to counter offensive engagements. His enrollment in the League was almost set in stone when a group of unknown men beat the door down into his home around midnight, quickly cutting down these invaders after a small scuffle he went onto the streets as quickly as he could. For days he investigated, personally hunting down the culprit, until it was clear that it was a hit from a rival of his father’s corporation. their CEO organized this to take out their competition, not expecting his adopted child to be a trained killer by the age of 17. When Takeru confronted the man, hood covering his grave visage, he said that it was just business. Takeru’s reply was short and cold: “So is this.” after cutting the man down security smashed in, covered in the blood of his first kill he continued to butcher his way out. Killing five guards before disappearing into the night. After that his father was sent a letter, it was Takeru’s enrollment into the League, when his father read it, he was happy, but so disheartened, as he saw the boy grow and grew more attached than he thought any adoptive father would to a child that was not their own. The letter arrived on Takeru’s 18th birthday.
