History:
The assassin known as Vapour was found in a dumpster behind a pub in Washington D.C. as an infant, near death and prematurely birthed. The woman who found him raised him (she named him Marcus) with her husband; and their house was one of mixed cultures. Marcuss father was British and his mother was Japanese. His training began before he could walk to insure that he knew of honor, independence, and respect. He took interest in his mothers Japanese heritage and spent many of his teenage years with his grandfather who furthered his instruction. Secretly he trained with the weapons of the ninja and he felt a deep connection with the mysterious role.
It was on his 21st birthday that Marcus received word that his family had been murdered. His mother, father, and younger twin sisters had all been slain in cold blood the night before. Marcus had been in Japan, immersing himself in the lore and stories of the ninja. His grandfather immediately left for Japan and met Marcus at his hotel lobby and told him the news. Marcuss grandfather knew it was the Yakuza that had been the cause of his familys murder. His grandfather had been an assassin for their organization in his early years and when he refused to aid them once more, the Yakuza had done this to persuade him to change his mind. It was in the moment that Marcus died and he and his grandfather went into seclusion. For 12 years he trained and honed his skills on a small island off of Japan and only when his grandfather finally died, did he begin his quest for vengeance.
In his mid 30s he began to work his way up as an assassin for hire. He became well known for his skill in versatility and stealth and was nicknamed Vapour. By age 40 he had become a myth that many no longer believed was real. He still continues his profession and quest for vengeance, but has begun to lose his step if nothing but old age.
