Biography:
Kross was born on November 13th, 1990. He was raised in a small town just outside the Capital - the Main City. His family tradition was to pass down the art of Wushu for men, and Taichi for women in their clan, but Kross had no plan of being able to learn only one of their family's arts. At a very young age, he was flexible. Becoming more pliant and eventually, learned the art of harnessing his energy through the combined arts. Controling it like water and eventually learning what many things he could do with that.
Upon the recognition of the main family branch, he was exiled from family grounds for going against tradition. He became rogue, wandering the streets of the Capital. At the age of 11, he became a thief, agile, daring, cunning. He stole wallets for food hiding his presence from the crowd. A year after, he experienced what killing for survival felt like. After a bloody battle, he ran up the fire escapes of the alley and into the night to disappear. Lucky for him, he had come accross a kind nun who ran an orphanage.
The slums was where he ever lived at, but he was clean, physically and at all times, even though all he ever needed was his body. He accepted the nun's offer to cleanse him in mind, but his soul was definitely scarred forever.
The convent was comfortable, he found others who were just like him. Rogues, children and teens alike with no family but each other. In their group, he was one of the eldest. Another orpah, Zeke, became his trusted friend.
Zeke and Kross both became Shaman at the same time, at the same age of their arrival in the convent. Kross met Lacroix, the Spirit of the Convent Cross, and Zeke met his Satax, the Spirit of the Convent Kitchen. All went well, Kross and Zeke became close, and went out to help the needy every night. It all went well, until the time Kross and Zeke came of age. Tragedy fell the convent.
Nobody was left alive, an intense battle grew between him and Zeke. The night when the Destiny Star had passed, the convent was left in flames, ashes. As the battle raged, Satax - Zeke's Power Spirit, had sided with Kross and offered his protection. Zeke, on the other hand, obtained the Spirit of Fire with his awakening and devoured Satax. Kross was left alive, but fainted in the rubbles.
As soon as the guardian fight had been settled, he sought for answers. Zeke was still Zeke for him, but was unsure if it was really what he wanted to see and know or if he wanted Zeke to be different than what he was so he could settle the score.
