''A young and brave adventurer, raised in the art of the Shinjo Ryu school of swordsmanship and bushido. He enters the tournament for thrills, but it seems as if that is a front. What is this young man truly looking for?''

From the mountainous regions of Kanto, Japan, in the historic region of Aizu in Fukushima Prefecture, renowned for its samurai throughout the country, lives Eiji Shinjo. Born of noble and legendary blood from the Genji aristocratic families, Eiji is also the youngest master of the Shinjo Ryu school of Bushido, taught to him by his father and eldest brother, Sho. Left fatherless when he was only 6, his only brother taught him the craft while his mother, a renowned seamstress and tailor of traditional Japanese apparel, known for putting the Kyoto Nishijin schools of weaving to shame, supported them through their lives along with the family fortune.

But when he was 17, Sho immediately vanished after challenging him to a duel, and mysteriously bequeathed him the title of Master in the school. Completely shocked and left without any reasons for his departure, her mother soon spoke the truth behind the events of Sho and his father's death. Eiji then took off into the world, searching for him for over two years in underworld fighting circuits and martial arts societies, but did not find any trace of his whereabouts.

Upon two years after his venture, a mysterious man and woman, formally dressed in black, came to his training halls after his last class. Bearing invitations to the Toshinden Tournament, Eiji initially declined, until the invitees mentioned the registration of "a certain Sho Shinjo". Hearing the name of his eldest brother, Eiji immediately accepted the invitation in attempts to finally confront him.

His weapon, the Great Flashing Byakko White Katana, is a family heirloom, said to have been passed down since the weapon was in the possession of the Genji and Matsudaira clans.

Aizu Legend surrounding it states that the katana was forged of a broken iron mirror, said to have contained the spiritual powers of the namesake White Tiger of the West; being invulnerable to wear and tear, capable of even cutting through metal, and that those that wield it are of those whose destinies are to become the guardians and upholders of humanity and compassion. Even greater myths surrounding the blade, such as it being said to have great magical powers of restoration and destruction are documented, but still remains unproven.

 * Hot Shot Scot

''A bounty hunter and traveling solo guitarist, well versed in British and Japanese schools of swordsmanship and martial arts for his career. He also enters the tournament for thrills, but like his childhood friend, what is he truly looking for?''

Born in the city of London, the Amoh family is said to be some of the last blood relatives to the Knights of the Round Table, and specifically, that of King Arthur. While raised in a humble home amongst their noble lineage and legacy, he lost his mother at childbirth, and soon his father was assassinated by a bounty hunter by the name of Storm when he was only 4. Storm, guilt stricken over the grief and pain he had afflicted onto the young Kayin, soon adopted him. Still upset over the loss of his only family, Kayin coldly accepted.

His youth spent living in the US, and traveling throughout the world with his adoptive father, Kayin soon warmed up and forgave his father's killer. Years went by and he was an outstanding guitarist at 15. But something dark had always plagued him. A question that was never asked. "Why did you kill my father?" The night he did attempt to ask however, was when they came. Killers out for Storm came to their home, and they would also come for Kayin, who fled the scene. When the authorities aided him to his home, everyone vanished without a trace. This would be the last time he would see his father again.

As the years came by, it was already 1994. Steeped into the underworld of bounty hunting and illegal assassinations, Kayin bitterly did so in attempts to find his adoptive father, and understand why his real father was killed. In between his gigs and stage time, did the young man who desired to live his life without conflict, had to go back into the shadows of society, the roots of his misery and suffering, where vice and sin was a common way to see tomorrow again.

But another night would place him deeper into the dregs of the underworld. Broadcasted live, Kayin soon witnessed Storm's death through the Toshinden's very cameras. Horribly shocked, upset, and flooded with emotions, his eyes soon gazed upon his father's assailant. Everything that held up his world soon came crashing down. Plunging deeper into hatred, upset and hurt, Kayin vowed vengeance. He would enter the tournament and track down his father's slayer.

 * Dislikes: Environmental pollution of all sorts, especially when cities dump trash and waste illegally

''A giant of a man, whose strength belies a heart of gold, and basks in the wide reaches of nature. But to those that come to him with malevolence and wickedness, they shall know the wrath brought about through his indignation.''

The son of a nature conscious couple, Rungo Irons is a miner with experience also in the logging and fishing industry. Raised in the countrysides of the Midwestern United States and ingrained with a love and understanding of nature, he is also a staunch advocate for advancements in environmentally safe and stable technologies and methods in many fields of society.

Despite working in careers that seemingly contradict his values that he grew up with, Rungo does so in attempts to find ways that man can excavate and obtain resources that doesn't tax the natural environment, especially in a time where the effects of pollution have already made their mark in the world.

One day on the job, Rungo and his crew stumbled across a uranium deposit during a routine vein expansion expedition. Sealing it off because of the dangers it presented, both at the moment and potentially soon, his employers later charted the other side of the mining area since the land's purchase, discovering that an unknown group had created a hidden extraction plant and found the uranium vein unknowingly behind their backs.

Upon this discovery however, the charter and his group mysteriously vanished three weeks later. Sensing that something foul was afoot, and having caught wind of alleged rumors of darker connections, Rungo soon discovered that a small group in his company allowed the illegal trespassing of a puppet Junior mining company of the Gerard Foundation to excavate the uranium for their own dark purposes.

Having reported the group and the events that occurred to the authorities, Rungo believed this to the be end of the conspiracy. But that would not hold true to what was held in store for him.

Weeks later during his vacation time, on a tranquil spring night, Rungo alone was attacked by a group of thugs demanding his attention. Despite fending off the thugs with ease, a man and a woman in black attire soon engaged him in conversation. Soon speaking of his utmost importance and invitation to the Toshinden, Rungo refused to partake in its bloody spectacles, but upon his words, two people were pulled out of the car at gunpoint. Much to his fears, the Secret Society had kidnapped his pregnant wife Lila and his son Christopher for his meddling in their affairs.

"Should you decline your participation, it would be a great shame- For both ourselves and yourself, Mr. Irons.", coldly spoken from the frigid mouths of the invitees. "We know of another wonderful limelight for you and your family to partake in, should you think otherwise, but please, we hope to see you star on our show. See you soon."

Realizing that even the law could not help him now, Rungo, heavy at heart and full of resolve, brandishes his weapon and prepares to face whatever stakes comes at him to save his family.

''A mysterious, and powerful wandering ronin and adventurer. The brother of Eiji himself, what are his motives? His disappearance long ago only warranted his reasons for doing so.''

Sho Shinjo. The name that spreads silence and awe with its utter mention.

The oldest son of the Shinjo family, Sho is the former 44th master of the Shinjo Ryu School of Bushido. A prodigy and quick learner in his youth, he even started training his youngest brother, Eiji, and Kayin Amoh, a family friend, at the age of twelve since the passing of his late father.

Having passed on the family tradition to his youngest brother, Sho, with his elegant Hien Ken in hand, travels the world as a merciless fighter, who has quickly grown in legend throughout the world of martial arts and weaponship; even quickly making short work of competitions, from the publicly sponsored, to the underground, and even brought defeat to many schools of martial arts throughout the world. And as if at the command of the slightest breeze of the wind, he immediately vanishes, to his next conquest....

Having won the 32nd Toshinden without much challenge, he mysteriously makes his way back to the 33rd Toshinden, once more..... And being silent, without any words to speak, what does Sho want from the world? Maybe fighting is his only way of expression....

 * Character Themes
 * Can't Stop Messin - Aerosmith - Second Bout

A feisty, reckless, and lively free spirit who would easily fit the definition of boisterous if she knew that word. A fresh young woman and modern day girl, raised in the ranges of New York City with a year of experience in the ranks of New York's Finest, Tracy Higgins is one of the wildest officers on this side of the NYPD. While fun loving and carefree, you'd better watch out for her while she's on the job! While an upholder of justice and peace, she has a notorious rap amongst her fellow enforcers, known for provoking the nastiest of perpetrators for her to beat down without mercy (with full legal right, of course), and disobeying orders to fully complete a case. Successful in most of her antics, those paired with her are often subject to some of the longest days and heart stopping moments in their career.

She also has one hell of a track record, this girl not being your garden variety All American girl next door! Born to well to do parents in the boroughs of Queens, she was born mischievous and ultra excitable, getting into trouble and known for being a blue haired handful devil of a prankster. Given gymnastics and karate lessons to channel her brimming energy and curiosity since she was 5, all was well- Until she turned 12, where she and her friends would get involved with the activities of the younger members of the various biker gangs in the city. Hanging out with them after school and her practice every day, Tracy soon found herself in a year of military school at 13, after her delinquent tendencies flared up and wore out her parents' tolerance through street fights and underage do nots, including driving and drinking. Coming back home to a regular life at 14, she found one of her closest friends gruesomely tortured and murdered upon returning to the biker scene, and with her parents enforcing stringent rules and curfews upon her return, she demanded her own emancipation, with her father answering through surprise enrolling her to Japan via cultural exchange with an international school for her Junior year at 16. Coming back home for her Senior year of high school, she changed her surname to her mother's maiden name to spite her father one last time, before leaving home upon graduation for the Academy.

Sometime after the 33rd Toshinden, in November 1996, her department was soon given further evidence related to a cold case that had occurred in Spring of 1981, where a car accident and bomb had killed two victims, a woman by the name of Kaede, and her newborn son, both of whom were of Japanese citizenship. The evidence provided information that she was formerly in league with the Secret Society as one of its highest profiles, and that her killing was the result of an internal power struggle within the higher ranks of the group.

Tracy, ever yet notorious, was given the assignment due to her experience in the field and her eagerness to take on cases to eventually become a detective, as cases surrounding the Secret Society required sharp thinkers and very adept officers, with many previous ones having ended in either cold ends or dead agents, with Tracy showing a great deal of acuity, prowess, and much to her benefit, luck, on duty.

But the evidence given was truly a sight to behold and take in. Not only coming with documents regarding Kaede's career and employers, internal workings of the Secret Society, and a cassette tape confession of the witness; there then came data regarding the schematics and workings of the car bomb all dealt with new technology never before seen in previous cases. Next, came documents of phenomena of supernatural and preternatural means, and even given proof directly, through the storage of items in paper, and mysterious symbols that enacted different effects. Various CDs and storage mediums for computers held simulation data regarding many projects involving such topics, and even those regarding experiments on human potential and vitalism. Finally, the evidence pointed all of such things to one culprit: the current Uranus executive Julia of the Gerard Foundation. While Tracy found this hard and overwhelming to take in at first, magic wasn't all that hard to believe, as Qi was described to her by her karate master, and the Secret Society did have their large urban legends and rumors leaked from confessing and regretful suspects.

But as the Secret Society was a global crime syndicate, and Julia being a citizen of Switzerland, Tracy honestly didn't really know what to do with the case. While she could contact Interpol, members of the Society were often very elusive and oddly made their way throughout the world faster than anyone could keep track of, plus they did not often appear in broad daylight or were found in one location for long. Even many of their facilities and locations were rumored to be often covertly disguised or hidden, and highly guarded, with any found location in the past now currently abandoned. If anything for Tracy, this case was looking to be a great headache...

Much to her luck however, she forgot that a majority of criminals she placed behind bars and greater degrees of racketing she's stopped, all had a great deal of relation and contract to the Secret Society. On a warming January day after her birthday, the NYPD received a message regarding for Tracy to meet in Central Park at 11:30 pm. A bit groggy and hungover in her morning, a fantastic realization hit. She didn't need to go undercover. Her past victories and arrests were enough to garner their attention. With what she's done to their business, they were looking for her.

Her weapons, the Dynamo Knights Criminal Maneuvering System, are the results of the fast advancements in technology, and the innovation and creativity in tandem with such trends. The results of combining takedown weaponry with electroshock mechanics for added subduing force, it is widely popular for such an idea for situations requiring needed force and extraction without lethality. While such weapons are common place in the American police force, Tracy's is a different story.

Her version is a latest limited edition model, the 1994 Electro Shadow, offered exclusively for notable officers throughout the nation. Named for classifications best associated with covert situations and infiltration, the weapon is a pair of tonfas made exclusively for underhand usage, with the short end the barrel of a miniature pulse dynamo that can fire a bolt of electricity. In addition, both feature different polarity settings, allowing them to deliver a powerful shock through attraction, and a repulse blast through opposing polarity.

Having come in a standard metallic navy blue black, Tracy enjoys her Electro Shadows in custom flavor. Her current pairs in magenta and purple with a silver white inner body, they are the result of having gone through two pairs of Shadows already, having lost half pairs in notably large cases through them being destroyed, and combining the surviving twins together for a third pair, realizing how much money she's spent attempting to get the second pair. She affectionately calls her Shadows "Melody" and "Sweetstuff", and loves them dearly for everything about them.

Plus, her tutelage of karate in the arts of such a weapon, and self-created techniques add more to her arsenal. Added with an understanding of Qi and a fiercely hot blooded fighting spirit,

Roads of Blood

After her successful infiltration into the Secret Society, and gaining the evidence and information needed to close the case, as well as on the Society themselves (and the nights of having to type up that report, all injured and beat up after the Toshinden, by the way), Tracy was successfully raised into position as a detective. The year during which she held the position.... was not as glamorous as she would have thought it would be.

In addition to her own pursuit of tracking down a serial killer in league with a nationwide street gang, the power vacuum left behind after the disappearance of the Secret Society's grand influence saw the rise in criminal incidents and activity, attempting to establish their own hold in the underworld hastily and messily. While taking on case after case, and exhausted eventually, the worst thing had to come in line during her worst time...

On the day of her birthday, in 1998, leads were given to an ever-growing in country Right Wing extremist terrorist cabal attempting to gain influence in the US due to the shifty and tumultuous political climate.

Vermillion
''A fiendish and shadowy, tall, imposing individual, where many have met the cold ends of their lives from the mouths of his many guns. Lurking in the darkness, silent as he views battles from afar, he waits for a victor, so that he may claim the title from their dead hands...''

Leon Solares. A name whose very mention sends shivers down the spines of those living on the west coast of the United States. A cocky, arrogant, and outright violence loving misfit, Leon Solares is one of the top ten Most Wanted Criminals on the FBI's Most Wanted List, being the head leader of the Malice Tide organized crime and outlaw gang of Los Angeles and its neighboring cities, a street gang of highly organized proportions, engaging in all sorts of violent and illegal activities no matter how small or big, from the trade of narcotics, underground gambling competitions, and human trafficking, to robberies, life-threatening drag races on crowded roads, and even recreational violence and public disturbances. In addition to Malice Tide, Leon and his gang are also in league with the Euphrates Organization and its leader Abel, hired and funded to cause as much chaos and criminal activity as they can for the authorities to be distracted from the Organization's own goals and activities on the American western seaboard.

Once a former pampered boy from a high class household and popular preparatory school student, Leon soon turned to the criminal underworld for fun, excitement, and thrills, growing tired of rules and restraints. Finding himself the leader of Malice Tide, overthrowing a number of rival gangs, and growing in power with the Euphrates Organization, Leon soon desired power within himself to expand his influence, and became a ruthless fighter in underground fighting circuits within Los Angeles. Taking up the stakes to its highest in battle, Leon found himself to be number one in swordsmanship - Until the day he fought Eiji Shinjo. While ruthlessly attacking and not letting up, Eiji merely cut through his wide openings, and taunted his unrefined style, all the while messing with him throughout the battle. Infuriated and nearing defeat, Eiji merely sweeped him off his feet and humiliated him as Leon attempted a cheap shot with his back turned.

Never getting over that day, Leon trained as hard as he could to be the most powerful fighter in the world, and sought the day he would steal back his pride and victory from his most spited adversary to have crossed his path. One day however, Abel soon approached him, and desired a little chat. Inviting him to a conference of most importance, members and invitees, assassins, and higher ups gathered in its halls, Leon would find himself the greatest opportunity to truly show what he was made of. As the next Toshinden would be held by them as the Secret Society and the Gerard Foundation retreated into the safety of obscurity, the Organization would soon take hold of the vacuum left behind, and invoke their grand ritual to achieve a better world. Leon could care less. With him assigned to capture Eiji at any costs and manner, Leon would find this game to be the most thrilling thing he could ever partake it. He gave a wicked smirk on his face. Now the world would truly know that he would be the World's Greatest.

Rachael Delores

 * Age: 24
 * Birthday: January 11, 1975
 * Occupation: TV Showhost, Recruitment Officer, Nuclear Engineer, PMC Agent
 * Nationality: American
 * Martial Status: Single
 * Likes: Punky Brewster
 * Hobbies:
 * Cherished thing in the world:
 * Favorite thing to eat:
 * Dislikes: Aerosmith, when people mistake her for a man
 * Wields: Twin double sided tonfas armed with impact activated nuclear incendiary devices

Rachael Delores is one of the hosts for the next greatest media hit show sensation,   for the television channel Nickelodeon, a show that attracts youth athletes from all over the nation to compete in huge and crazy competitions of all sorts, from obstacle courses, races, and video games, to win prizes, and whose purpose is to encourage good sportsmanship and competition.

Rachael herself is also an accomplished athlete, having won many triathlons and dabbled in many sports; in addition, she is also an accomplished academic, boasting a PHD and wide knowledge in the fields of Nuclear Engineering.

But, such things about her, are only the surface persona she puts on to hide her true personal life.

Abandoned since birth, Rachael is a woman who has fought long and hard for her survival in the unseen world of American poverty and struggle. Having migrated from orphanage to orphanage in childhood without adoption, her teenage years found her sent into military school after an incident regarding her killing of a bully at the orphanage she was staying at as "accidental". From then on, life only became more merciless, as military school life was even harsher, as peers and instructor alike showed little to no care or respect for her. Fighting for a life free from such a hell, Rachael fought for freedom through college scholarships to go to one the best in the nation, Harvard, and such a goal even drove her to extort and roughhouse other academic competition through brute threat and force.

But upon one day caught beating up competition, she attracted the attention of a new counselor who had recently moved in. Impressed by her ferocity, and getting to know her, including her goals, he introduced her to a company he was working for in addition to his own job, and pulled strings for a sponsorship so she may go to Harvard. Rachael soon joined into a private military company, and found herself both going to her dream college and working for a better future; what could go wrong?

Years later, Rachael soon had it all. A high end degree and wonderful college experience from the best in the nation, a future with benefits and meaning in a promising position, money in her pocket, a life free from harshness and the cruel past.... She became one of the Nuclear Specialists and Artillery Managers at her career as a mercenary, and time off from the company meant a great amount of vacationing and free time. One thing that caught her attention was the company's own sponsorship and recruitment division of a youth television channel and their sports related programs, and with a love of the crowd and spotlight, and youth, she applied to become one of their hosts. Making money while enjoying the vivacity and excitement of stardom... Life couldn't be any better!

But as time went on, her company soon grew more active internally. Their own sponsor, the Euphrates Organization, wanted all branches to prepare for a most important project. In addition, the mysteries of her past, were something she wanted to uncover. "Who are my real parents?" It wasn't so hard to find out, she could have gone anytime. But was she ready for what was to come?

Born to the couple Anna Higgins and Daniel McGovern in New York City, she was revealed to have been the eldest sister of twins when she was born. The other sister, the youngest one, was named Tracy, and she was chosen over her. For the rest of their lives from that day, they were documented to have had a comfortable and high end, stable family life.

She couldn't realize it. She couldn't accept it. She didn't want to. Since she could ever remember, she had to experience cold loneliness without anyone to guide her, to raise her, to even care for her. She had to struggle and fight in the world just for her mere survival, all against adversity and neglect, while her sister received care and love in a home away and far from the world of brutality and misery. Why was she resigned to a bitter, cruel, and cold fate? Why did she deserve to be abandoned and cast aside like trash?

From then on, did her bitterness and resentment begin to snowball and grow in intensity. All she could think about was her twin, and how she got everything in the world, while she herself was denied even love and acceptance since she was born. Tracy. Soon that name began to sound like a cruel and sickening joke played on her, a mere foul and offensive word to her very being.

Soon the day came for her PMC branch, as a surprise visit was announced by the Euphrates Organization's own leader. All huddled in position and salutes, Abel graced the foundations of building. After greetings and welcomes, did business come immediately after. Wanting to privately conference with a very special individual, the person was none other than Rachael. Not having only seen her work on the field, her specifications, he also knew about her past, her family's own dark secrets. He began to discuss the mission assigned to her, a most crucial one. Several individuals have been targeted to be assassinated for the greater good. And the stinger; Tracy Higgins is one of them.

Abel soon slid two suitcases towards her. Opening them up, she brandished the weapons in hand. The thought of vengeance, the thought of justice for her life, on the woman who took away her happiness and peace since birth, would be beautiful. Tracy Higgins will pay, and the reward would be worth the effort.
