Background:
Youth {Birth to Age Five}
Okuda lived quietly with his parents in Kaminari no Kuni. In an normal house, not too far from Kumogakure. The land folk were very kind to them and had often smiled and greeted them as they passed them in the street. Okuda's parents were Kaminari's number one blacksmiths and had used their weapon crafting specialty as their way of making money. Since the business was pretty good; they had managed to live within the middle class area. But when Okuda turned three, both of his parents had caught a deadly virus that seemed to be passing through the villages. Unfortunately there was no time to consult with any doctors or even medics regarding the virus, so inevitability; Okuda had lost the lives of both of his parents. His mother was the first to leave this cruel, harsh world, but his father however; was a tough one and had spent a few weeks fighting.
Cold and alone, the young Okuda was left wondering the streets of Kaminari when a small group of travelers decided to take the boy in. For a few months, Okuda had a number places to visit and a group of people to look after him. But one frightful night, the small group was attacked by a small cult of rogue ninja and all Okuda's new loved ones had been killed, slaughtered and tortured. The poor boy was the only survivor, and yet again had nowhere else to go. While wondering the everyday streets in some village, Okuda came across a woman who wielded a sword and was also a craftsman. The boy wanted to know the art of the sword and was challenged by the woman to see wither he was worthy or not. Okuda was successful and was taken in by this woman and was raised as her own.
Training as a Samurai {Age Five to Age 16}
The sounds of clashing swords could be heard daily from the small area in which Mai trained Okuda. The chosen branch of the young boy was that of the sword, whilst he would eventually train the other two branches and master the style, they focused on the sword branch. Okuda and Mai would train daily and spar at the end of each week to review what he had learned and if he could change his usage of each technique to fit different situations.
Whilst Mai’s traveling from place to place meant that they did not have a set home within the country they always found time for training, if not Burêdono Kenseijin physical aspects then they trained his mind, always testing his knowledge with little games, Mai would subtlety give him various situations that he would come across, either in the form of a verbal game or a modified version of Shougi, in which he would be given a single piece, and would be forced to find ways out of different situations and still complete his goals.
His training would last for a great many years, from the young age of five till he was sixteen years of age, though his training was far from complete, she decided that his skills would be best tested as a Shinobi of the countries Hidden Village, though she did this though her own ways, making him think that it was his idea and making him rebel when in reality it was all part of her master plan about the situation. Once he left her side to join the village he would find a note in the bento she had made him that said ‘when you’re ready to complete your training, seek me out once more, and we shall finish where we left off.’ Okuda would then realize what she had done and made a promise to himself, that he would return one day and finish his training.
Becoming a Shinobi for Kumo! {Age 16 to Age 18}
After he left his surrogate mothers protection and made his way to the Hidden Village he found that he would have some difficulties becoming a Shinobi for the village, mainly that he was not a member of the village nor had he attended the villages Shinobi Academy, he would need to find a way to show he was strong enough, when they tested his Nin- and Gen- Jutsu abilities they found him severely lacking, being unable to mold Chakra for such techniques.
But when they tested his Taijutsu abilities, in the form of a spar, they found that they more than made up for that lacking and decided to make him a fully fledged Shinobi of Kumogakure where he has since made his home, never once forgetting his promise to his Sensei and Surrogate mother, planning to return when he was ready to show her that he had the skills worthy of becoming a true master of Burêdono Kenseijin.
Okuda has completed a great many missions, Though many he had managed to get through without any deaths, but some of them, he had been forced to end lives. His first one though, would be like nothing he ever would have imagined, nothing he had read would prepare him for the sensation that the first kill would bring in him, and it would never live up to the image that the stories he’d heard and read had created.
The First Kill {Age 18}
The Mission was supposed to be simple, protect a few merchants and their wares whilst they went from Kumogakure to a small village near the capital of the country. Okuda was chatting with the head merchant, making small talk and joking around, but staying ever vigilant, when suddenly a small band of Rogue Shinobi came out of nowhere, trying to steal the wares of the Merchants for their own uses. Okuda jumped into action, fighting as many as he could with his Katana, he wasn’t trying to kill any of them as he figured why end a life when something good could come out of it one day?
Though that silly illusion of his was quickly shattered, when one of the merchants was cornered by a large rock face and a Shinobi. Okuda’s mission took priority over his desire not to kill a person, he shoved his Katana into the Ninja’s back, through his heart, slaying the man. Shaken at first, he realized this was not the time to let his sadness over taking a life endanger the mission, shutting out his heart, Okuda quickly and mercilessly slew the remaining Rogue Shinobi to save the lives of the Merchants.
Although able to complete the mission, Okuda remained changed, he had from that point decided that he would become a manslayer, but not one of mindless manslaughter, he would only kill if the person threatened himself or those he needed to protect or if he must to complete his mission, from then on, he would try his best to ensure that no person would die needlessly, making that his Ninja Way.

Character Depth
Personality:
- Combat – Okuda, though not a master of his chosen style, is a very masterful swordsman. He is very ruthless, he strikes quickly so as not to give the opposition the chance to retaliate nor to get away. Okuda has spent many years training and honing himself in the ways of the sword since he was just thirteen years old, leaving his hesitation about murdering or assassination in the past, knowing that what he does now is for the good of the village. If the Kage of his village tells him to assassinate someone, or murder someone, he will do so; in a heartbeat.
- Towards Strangers – Okuda is quiet, sticking to himself, never speaking to strangers, unless they speak to him first, asking a question he feels he can and should answer. He tends to see them just as expendable as his assassination targets should they see him perform an assassination. Other than that, he only sees them for what services they can supply him, such as food and drink, and maybe the occasional room at a hotel or inn.
- Towards friends and allies – Because he prefers to be alone, he doesn’t have many friends, if any at all. He rarely goes out with his comrades for a night or day in town. He spends most of his time sleeping or training rather than hanging out. But for those who might be lucky enough to be called his friend they will see he’s just a man who lost his childhood so that he could train himself into a killing machine. Though he is a die-hard loyalist, and will do anything to protect his friends, comrades and allies.
- Towards his Enemies and Those whom attack him – A variation of how he is in combat, Okuda rarely gets attacked first but when he does he tries to end the as quickly as he can. As for his enemies, he tries to cut them down before they notice him or should they notice him, before they ask him who he is or should they attempt to attack. Being Chaotic Good, Okuda is quick to help those in danger, should he see someone attacking an unarmed person, he will step in, or should he see an argument in which someone is about to draw a weapon against someone for bringing up a valid point, he’ll step in and help the defenseless party.
