Appearance:
The one known as Afuro Akumu stands approximately six foot four, that weighs approximately one hundred and ninety pounds. He is a lean, muscular, and greatly toned. The abs of this man is defined, crisp, showing the work of a man who has trained his whole life. His hands are torn, slightly scared, with calluses along them, showing not only the very age of this man, but the life of this man. The cuts along this man are the cuts that can easily be told by that of a wielder of a sword, a man who lived by the sword, and may very well die by the sword. His feet and calves are defined, showing the true form of one that may be known as a runner, a sprinter, one with great feats in the art of jumping, tumbling, and even balance, as the legs of this man was shown, tight, clean, lean, with the hint of slight scars that past mistakes may have occurred. Along the thighs of this man was what formed greatly, showing the brute power this man may possess as the true form of muscle could be clearly seen, especially from every step that can perhaps be taken.
The stomach of this man, that showed the true form of abs had gashes all over against the very stomach, showing the age, and brute training that this man had occurred, and endured. Along the right side, near the hip there would be a cross shaped scar along him, as the skin tone would be lighter upon him. Near the left breast section, just above the nipple reaching close to his collar bone in a diagonal section reaching towards his shoulder, a long slash type of scar is shown in a lighter skin form. The arms of this man are finely tone, not muscular, but toned. A few scars could he shown here and there, some against the biceps of this man, while one or two are shown against a triceps or shoulder. Each scar that can be seen are noticeable by the way they are in a lighter skin tone then the natural skin color of this man.
Now we move down to the very skin tone of this man. The skin tone of this man is slightly rough, a man who has lived his life without the feel or sensation of the knowledge of a lotion. A warrior was this man, so his skin tone was darker than normal. No, his skin was what made him separate from his brethren, from his divine right, which would create the true passage of discrimination towards him. His skin color was a dark type of color, the color of a cool whip like brown. His hair, nappy, tangled in a kink like form. His size was large, but this type of hair added the length, bringing about approximately another foot or two in all directions, creating a massive dome around the head of this man. His hair was not combed, or really picked, but the direction was everywhere, shooting off in all directions, trying to form a more of a nappy like pony tail, without true succeed. The Man's eyes are white with the hint of a light violet within, the eyes are harsh, desolate, there is a hint of kindness within but one must stare deep into the eyes of a true warrior for some time in order to truly see what it means.
The basic attire, the basic clothing of the one who goes by the name of Afuro is the everyday wardrobe of a Samurai. In the items of clothing the "everyday" wardrobe is a type of clothing called the kimono. There is an outer layer and an inner layer for the very kimono. Afuro has two different types of kimonos that he usually wears one that is a heavier type that is usually worn only in the winter time, while he has another type that is lighter worn within the summer time period. Following the code of the samurai this young warrior wears a type of attire where there is no flashy clothing, everything that he wears is either gray in color, or white in color. His normal Kimono is in the coloring of gray which would be along the outer attire, the inner kimono is the color of a light white, mixed with a hint of gray within.
Beneath the kimono the young warrior wears a loincloth which is known as a "Fundoshi." His "Fundoshi" is a long piece of material worn down from the front of the body. A loop sling is looped around the neck and quickly fastened on the top of the loincloth while the other end is pulled around to the other side along the abdomen area and tired around the front of the lower waist by a number of cords. This is usually worn for the comfort of armor if the young warrior wishes to wear the feeling of what is known as armor. The warrior known as Afuro usually wears a specialized type of socks known as "tabi." These socks are white that usually reach around the lower knee area. There is a large separation from the big toe to the other toes to create a better comfort for his foot wear. The footwear of this young man is sandals known as "Waraji." The Sandals are made out of simple hemp and cotton thread for maximum comfort.[/ul]
Background:
Father is unknown to the man that goes by the name of Afuro. His father is a man that no one would truly know. The young man named Afuro does not know who his father is, or his mother, so in every sense he does not know how his birth came to be, but this does not mean that those all around will not know, and that a birth could never occur. The story starts back over 2 decades in the past with a man that goes by the name of Hyūga Hitomi. This man was a strict man, a man of power, of authority, a man who had great pride within his very own clan to where some may consider unhealthy, or perhaps worry like. This man was thin, with somewhat of a harsh look upon his face, as he would stand five foot seven. According to records within the house of Hyūga, it is stated that when this man went off for a diplomatic like mission, to meet with other types of clans found all over the countries. Then suddenly an incident had occurred. The ship went down, and the man known as Hyūga Hitomi suddenly disappeared. Approximately four weeks later, this man found himself back into the village. In the records of the Hyūga clan, was simply lost, who found his way back home.
The true story however is much more different. Reasons for this are due to the fact that a man's reputation as a leader, as someone in power could perhaps be compromised. Even though something may have occurred, the dignity and truth of this man is still known, and will never be compromised. As it is known within the mind of this man, while traveling towards the Country of Water, an incident had occurred; a strong storm came forth swooping down against the very ship as it proved to be too great for such a vessel. Some of those within did indeed survive, but the one known as Hitomi was nowhere around. He could not be found, he could not be seen. Reasons for this are because the body was suddenly washed to shore, along a far off island which is connected to the Country of Water. This body was found by an unknown, destroying all evidence of this man ever being around. Minutes turned to hours, hours turned to days until finally the body of this man finally woke. Hitomi found himself in the home of a young woman, a woman of his age. The body of Hitomi was here, but the mind was lost, which could not be found at this moment. This meant that, everything within the past can now be remembered, yet the basics, the survival skills could clearly be known. This woman was beautiful in every way, hair slightly kinky, wavy, pushed out but blew against the very wind, her eyes in the color of coal, as her skin tone showed that she was an Ebony Goddess.
For the first two weeks this man would grow fond of this young woman. Since he could not remember who he was, or what he was, the true personality of this man could not occur, could not exist. As everyone would know, Hitomi was a happily married man at that point, and would never compromise such a trust. This harsh man was now in a different world, a world with this young woman, a woman he would begin to like, to care for, to grow feelings for as the mind of Hyūga Hitomi could not be found. As time had passed, the feel of mutual understanding occurred, when the young woman and the young man found themselves with each other, the mind had finally found the body. As the actions took place the young Hyūga Hitomi felt the sudden burden of betrayal from a past life. Finding out such an occurrence, this man felt the need to leave, to leave the woman he spent his time with behind, leaving without the knowledge that the one moment they spent with, would be the seed to conceive of another, the creation of the young man who would be known as Afuro Hyūga Akumu.
The woman was devastated, she did not care no more, her life, her loving heart was broken, and felt the need to disappear. As the months had passed she would roam around the Country of Water, as she would find herself in front of a village, a small village that perhaps had only a hundred members. The moment she reached this place, this refuge, the miracle of life quickly occurred. The young woman found herself giving birth, creating life, in front, and within the very village she had stumbled across in. The problem was that this woman found that the bringer of life was too harsh along her small body, giving the meaning of equivalent exchange, life for life. The mother was gone, the mother had passed, but the child was born, and would live on.
Within the City of Ka'rik'na, this young boy was slowly raised within the townspeople as a member of the Shirai-Ryu. This young child was raised by a small group, never truly being raised by a family in general, but by the village in general. No one knew who he was, or what he was. The name they gave forth was the name that would represent the hair of this child, Afuro, which was a different version for the name of Afro. For the first few years, till the age of seven, this child would be raised in the study of arts, culture, literature, myth, and the meaning of a warrior, the understanding of using one's mind in order to win victories, and to fight to the death. At around this age, some would believe the child was a demon, or perhaps blind because of the fact that he had white eyes. No one would know, nor suspect who or what he was.
At around the age of seven this young boy was taken away from his foster families and quickly trained in the arts of the village. The techniques the way of life was forever forged within the mind of this man, of this child. He was raised to never fear, to never give up, to push forward against any type of offense if necessary. The clan was known and true as they taught this child to understand all three, the mind, the heart and the soul. The training was vigorous; the training was harsh as they taught the very foundations of life towards this child. The first trial that came forth was the study of mind, to watch and understand the meaning of tactics, to surpass different types of scenarios just in case of an incident may occur.
The trial of manhood: The trial is a trial that this man had to endure to gain the respect of his village. This was the time for this man who went by the name of Afuro to go forth deep within the wilderness and survive for a year before one is capable of returning to the village. At this time, the young warrior spent by him during the trials of old, enduring, surviving. He lived his life as a nomad, enduring the troubling seasons, the troubling climate environments. This was the true test of this man that came forth, learning as much as he could. After enduring the trials of harshness the young warrior returned home after a year. During so, the young warrior learned the values of life, that one must live life to their fullest, without truly feeling any regret, for regret is just an obstacle in life.
This was also the year of Afuro's Great Test where he carefully had to take the life of another through the guise of stealth without being caught. A Test he showed he was worthy.
During the years of teen age years, the young warrior was sent off to learn something else, to learn the techniques of old. There was a form of styles this young warrior had wished to learn. These were the way of the Bushido, the way of swordsmanship. At this time the young warrior went off to corners of Wind Country to learn under the art of Burēdono Kenseijin. After learning what he needed the young warrior set off to learn from other styles as well, trying to become the best, trying to learn the ways of the sword, trying to learn the ways of the fist to be a true Tekken in power and might. He works with his brethren as a Predator, hunting down some of the most ruthless catches in existence.[/ul][/ul][/size]
