Bio/Personality:
Kyro is a very tough man. He has a calm mind, especially in the heat of conflict. He is hyper observant and has inhuman reflexes. He can blend into the dark with little trouble and his emotions are as visibly unseen as his kills.
Kyro is a man from the Takamuko clan, but was banished at the age of 16, for his "cowardice in batttle." The shogun that ordered his exile saw his skill in moving with the shadows as dishonorable and demonic. As warmongers, the Takamuko clan was comprised of many samurai, mixed with hired Ronin. They saw the shaded ninjas as dishonorable, and the Shogun gave orders to kill any ninjas on sight unless he gave other notice.
Meanwhile, Kyro ventured to a farm village that suffered from attacks from two other clans that clashed violently, with disregard for the village inhabitants. When Kyro and the others decided that it was time to retaliate, an old man did his best to guide Kyro to hone his skills and trained him to follow the path of a ninja. Armed with what tools they could find, Kyro and the men of the village fought against both sides, whichever giving them the best outcome at the time. They moved in such secret that the Shoguns of the warring clans knew nothing of their identities.
When the clans moved their battles elsewhere, Kyro and his companions decided to form a secret clan of ninja, who sold their services to the clans that warred across japan.
