History
Tomokazo was born in Japan in 1975. When he was young he displayed
talent for the warrior arts, and out of respect for his Samurai heritage,
he learnt the martial and written arts with equal enthusiam. It wasn't
until his grandfather noticed the resmblance between him and an ancestor,
that his parents took his Nempo studies seriously. They beleived it was
all just a figment of his imagination. He took to the arts of diplomacy
and languages naturally. His parents insisted that he wore his black hair
long, in a single ponytail to show his 'warrior spirit'. He always thought
it looked a little scraggly, but did as his parents requested.
In 1992, when he was 17, his father had run up some very large gambling debts, with the local Triads. His father was killed and his mother was taken in the middle of the night, never to be seen by him again. He tried to stop them, but only an poor aim and good luck kept him alive. His grandfather nursed him back to health, but Tomokazo swore revenge. For over a year, he fought a one man war agains the Triad that had taken his mother, and took the name 'Shadow Thunder', as that is what they called him.
He went in and killed without mercy, leaving none alive. This went well,
until he was caught out in the open, was nearly killed again. This time
a mysterious warrior named Fate appeared, and interviened, saving his life
for the second time. With Fate's help he has faked his own death, and has
began to learn the price of vengance isn't always worth paying. At the
moment he is living a quiet life in a small town near Tokyo, and is waiting
for Fate to come and resume his training.
