Silcardo Yaegaki

Born as the son of Pendrantine Yaegaki and Argane Hyngwain, both deserters of Village Hidden in a Ring of Fire and both A-class shinobi, Silcardo had a hard time as a youngster as his parents had zero experience in living a normal life without the use of their shinobi skillset, as they had to work for ryo instead of earning it by doing missions as a ninja. The family was poor, but atleast they were together. His parents had told him they had to leave a village because of their situation being complicated there. He had no idea what they meant but he simply didn't care when his father told him he was going to teach the four-year old boy taijutsu of the highest class that his father also used: Silat. A form of martial arts that imitates movements from animals. He had two years of Silat training and the moment he turned six, he was send to the academy.

His parents couldn't be more proud to see their son becoming a ninja just like they were, and they had very high expectations for him because of his advantage in taijutsu over the other students. A friend from their parents was a teacher at the school, who took time off to try and bring some sense into the boy who simply dismissed ninjutsu and genjutsu. After school, the teacher always tried to learn Silcardo any form of jutsu, all but taijutsu but Silcardo wouldn't move his body as long as there was no Silat to be learned. Practice made perfect and even at such a young age, Silcardo had learned himself that if he would practice Silat the whole time, he would become a legendary ninja that would punch through mountains for breakfast. His parents weren't happy, but were still proud of his excellent taijutu.

The teacher, Tasachi Nurayasuke, had told Silcardo that he wouldn't be able to become a shinobi like his parents if he wouldn't learn ninjutsu, and that ninjutsu was the key principle of being a ninja. However, his parents had never told Silcardo that they were shinobi's in another village, let alone shinobi's in general, so Silcardo confronted his parents about it right when the leader of a large clan in the village passed by. He overheard the fact that his parents were shinobi, and because of his son, a academy student being jealous of Silcardo, the leader of that clan had told the local forces about what he had heard. The next thing Silcardo knew, was that his father was gone and his mother.. She looked at him, with her mouth open, with a shocking look in her eyes. Shocked? Shocked of what? Silcardo had started talking to his mother, but she didn't respond. She was dead. It appeared that his parents were missing-nin, rogue ninja's and were pursued by hunter-nin from the village they had defected. He couldn't believe his eyes the moment he realised he was the one that called for the cold-blooded execution of his parents. The hunter-nin from the village Hidden in the Ring of Fire had people, commoners, listen to all the rumors and conversations, only to report back to them. Because of that clanleader reporting what he had heard, those 'spies' had overheard the overhearing, and within a day Pendrantine Yaegaki was gone, erased from the world or something, and Argane Hyngwain was dead. To this day, Silcardo hasn't heard from his father and has stopped believing that he will.

Ofcourse, living up to the dream of his parents, he started learning ninjutsu and the other stuff he didn't want to at first. He learned that his natural element was Wind, and easily passed through the genin exam. As a genin, they had put him in a four-man squad consisting of three genins and a higher-ranked adult. He didn't want to tag along with them because of his lack of trust in anyone but himself, and was removed from the team. Even so, no one could question Silcardo's skill and talent. Just like that, Silcardo was set up to a different training regime where he could enter the Chuunin Exams without being part of a squad thanks to no one other than Tasachi Nurayasuke, his childhood academy teacher and a friend to his parents. A good friend, he learned. He was the only one he could trust, and decided to spend day after day with the man. It felt like he had saved his life. Tasachi had taken upon himself the role of a father, a mother, a brother and a sister just for Silcardo.

He was able to become a Chuunin with the strength of a Jounin. He did assignments solo, and now and then took upon himself a assignment of other teams. However, because of his lone wolf personality, there was a ex-ANBU that picked a fight with him. He started insulting him by saying stuff about his parents, which crossed the line for Silcardo. He ended up killing the guy with his bare hands, but even so, the village couldn't help but pardon him. He did wonder how the ex-ANBU had learned of the story of his parents, but simply didn't care the next 24 hours.

It appeared the pardoning was ordered by the new Kouyakage, Yudai Kurotsuchi. He had heard the villagers call him 'Shodai Kouyakage', which would mean he would be the first one. He wasn't, so maybe it was out of respect for the man. Maybe he was better, and stood more out than other Kage's. If anything, Silcardo found it interesting and had decided to check things out.

The day after the pardoning, he had simply walked up to the Kage's room without invitation or any notification, with physically weaker guards trying to block Silcardo without succes. They apologized as Silcardo set foot in the room, but the Kouyakage told them it was no problem and had send them back to their duties. After a chat, it was agreed upon that Silcardo would accompany the Kouyakage in his future travels, stand and sit beside him during meetings unless ordered not to, and simply become his bodyguard at first. During the years they had developed a bond, to a point where they became real close friends. For the first time since Tasachi Nurayasuke, he had placed his trust in a newfound friend. And not just a friend, he was the Kouyakage. During this time till today, he had specialized himself in taijutsu and was pretty famous around the world. He had trained himself to a point where he could use any kind of weapon, no matter what size or what weight, in any situation, room and with whatever obstacle was around him. He could kill a guy with a apple if he had to, and had build himself a natural feral instinct. Still, he hasn't ever used his elemental release which could be disappointing to other ninja's in the village, especially to other Jounin who want to take his role as the Kouyakage's right-hand, who in comparison have more than one elemental release. Over the time however, Silcardo developed Steel Release which would enhance his taijutsu to a new level, while his natural element was but latent and never trained.

He catched the kunai that was aimed for his quickly beating heart, as the fast-paced combat got even more fast-paced and complicated due to other ninja's surrounding Silcardo, and were eager to lay a hand on him. He smiled as he threw the kunai back to the one who threw it with higher speed than his attempt, hitting him in the chest. The guy was bleeding and that caused the other ninja's to go all in on Silcardo. He let himself fall on the ground only to catch himself with his fingers right above the ground. This was him setting up one of his own taijutsu techniques, one that he created. He started rotating his fingers like a drill into the ground, causing his body to turn likewise and rotate 360 degrees multiple times with his legs spread forward, kicking the legs of the shinobi that were around him that could make them fall facefirst into the ground.

He pushed himself upwards with his fingers with enough power so that he would stand on his feet right again. He walked up to the shinobi that was hit by the kunai in his chest, and offered his hand to pull him back up on his feet again. The kunai he threw had hit him in a non-lethal spot, but it did hurt like hell right there. He pulled the kunai out, swinging it in the air to remove the blood from it before putting it in back in the shuriken holster of the shinobi, before lecturing him on not to throw kunai's just like that, but that he had to time it. He then told the other shinobi to go home and that class was over.
