Background :
Akado grew up as a firstborn son of the oyabun of the bayushi-yakuza family in Boston. He was groomed for leadership from an early age. Things changed shortly afer his thirteenth birthday though.
He went to bed feeling slightly ill and unwell, but as the night progressed waves off pain went through his body, his muscles cramping so hard he could hear his bones crack. In a red haze he could see his father look in horror upon his son, the cries of his mother, and the hushed laughter of his younger brother. The next morning he was bundled in a van and chucked into a dark alleyway, left to the mercy of street vermin. The first few days are hard to remember. He found shelter under a bridge, his new stature and strength keeping the vermin away.
He was adopted in the Blood'nBrainz-gang . He soon realised that this was not the life for him, finding the graceless, dirty life of a ganger distastefull. He saved up whatever cash he could find and moved away from Boston, deciding to make a life of his own.
He made a new start in the shadows, first as muscle, then more and more as a bodyguard. His fenomenal hand-to-hand combat skills were his prime asset, that and the fact that he knew how to behave in "civilised" company.
Akado is stuck between two worlds. He was raised as a yakuza, their peculiar code of honour ingrained in his very being. Even the betrayal by his own family has not changed his basic views of loyalty, if anything it made him adhere more strictly to them. However, it did learn him that noone could be trusted totally. He allways stays reserved, not fully trusting his friends.
This adherence to loyalty and honour has made him quite a reputation, as has his vengeance for the times that he was betrayed.
Outlook:
Akado is small (for a troll), standing at 2m50. He is massively muscled. He tends to wear his hair in a samurais top-knot.
He prefers to dress in simple loose-fitting dark clothing. He disdains tattoos or piercings, and doesn't smoke or drink. He lives in the basement of an old appartement. The concrete walls are bare but clean, the wooden floor polished and cleaned. A small bookshelve with some old hardcopy poetry and philosophy books, a futon, and a table with four cushions are the only furniture. Like evrything else, the small kitchen and bathroom are worn but clean.His belongings are kept in a strongbox by his bed. The rest of the space is empty, giving him plenty of room to exercise and train
