The setting of Claymore's story is a fictional world with medieval technology. Politically, it appears to consist of a large number of scattered, apparently independent, towns. In this world, humans coexist with creatures called Yoma, sentient monsters that feed on human innards. The Yoma, being shapeshifters, are capable of taking on human form and living in disguise amongst humans. By consuming a human's brain, Yoma can also absorb their memories, allowing them to disguise themselves as specific people without alerting any of their close friends or family.
A nameless and highly secretive organization has created an order of superhuman warriors to protect humans from the Yoma. These warriors have come to be popularly known as Claymores, after the immense claymores they wield. Villages being attacked by Yoma hire Claymores to kill the Yoma for a large fee.

Yoma
The main enemy of the Claymore organization, the Yoma are a species of humanoid monsters that coexist with humans in the Claymore world.
Common Yoma are the same size as humans, but some can be noticeably larger and more heavily muscled. Their bodies are generally similar in shape to those of humans, but their skin texture is significantly different. Most have rows of stubby spikes growing from their upper backs. Their limbs are also elongated, ending in clawed digits. Yoma heads sport large, fang-filled jaws and pointed ears, giving them a bestial appearance. In the anime, they also have purple blood.
Yomas seem to have intelligence approximately equal to that of humans, though sometimes dulled/influenced by their bestial nature. Their strength, speed, and durability far exceed those of normal humans, allowing the average Yoma to assault large groups of unarmed humans or small groups of armed humans with impunity. Their regenerative capabilities also allow them to survive grievous wounds and heal faster than normal. Body parts that cannot be regenerated in humans, such as eyes, grow back within days.
Claymore
Due to their hybrid nature, Claymores possess strength, speed, and reflexes far greater than that of any human. Because of their great strength, Claymores can wield a heavy claymore single-handed with ease and grace. In addition to this, Claymores possess vast regenerative capabilities and resilience, allowing them to survive normally-fatal injuries such as evisceration. Any wound that does not kill them heals over completely within hours. Claymores with a talent for regeneration, such as Deneve, can even regenerate entire limbs within minutes. These abilities, combined with their combat training and weaponry, allow Claymores to fight on par with most Yoma.
Aside from their strength, perhaps the most well-known ability wielded by Claymores (and the one for which they are most prized for by their clients) is their ability to sense Yoma. This is achieved through the sensing of Yoki (Yoma energy). Specialized Claymore can detect the aura of a Yoma from as far as several miles away, depending on the individual Claymore's skill. Clare herself has proven capable of sensing residual Yoki on humans who come into close contact with Yoma. A refined use of sensing Yoki allow the Claymores Teresa and Clare to read and predict the Yoma movements, to the point of reacting before the Yoma attacks. Some claymores can use their sense of smell to locate yoma.
Awakened Biengs
Awakened are exceptionally powerful Yoma with an incredible craving for human innards. Awakened will retain the intelligence and memories of their Claymore and human lives, but will otherwise have the mentality of a Yoma. The Awakened are the secret shame of the Claymore organization, "super-Yoma" resulting from the organization's own tampering. The Claymores use the term Voracious Eaters when referring to Awakened with outsiders, and claim that they are simply old Yoma with great strength and wisdom in order to hide their true origins. Before the war in the north, the organization would treat them the same way as other Yoma, not dealing with Awakened unless they had been hired to do so. In the new arc, however, the organization has changed to actively hunting Awakened.

Please provide a relatively brief history of your character and treat it as if it was a profile, I'll give you an example...

Selkice stood at the edge of a cliff overlooking a peaceful looking town in the valley. He could smell Yoma flesh from this far off, which was good, he was hungry. It was strange, Yoma thought that Claymores were disgusting and Claymores didn't normally eat Yoma, so why is it everytime he had a craving it was for Yoma? After the town he lived in was assaulted and wiped out by Yoma you would think that he would dedicate his life to just surviving and finding a new home. But no, he dedicated it to killing Yoma. He had seen many Claymore in his life, some had even tried to kill him, he was a Yoma after all, wasn't he? Guess so, he never went to the organization, he never got trained like a Claymore, so ingesting a Yoma must have been enough to become one... Well that kinda sucked in his view.

"Ah well, I guess it just goes with the times..."

He wore a pair of leather cargo shorts over a silk pair of pants, a neat black tunic with a zip-up longsleeve jacket with a hood, which he almost never threw over his head, and a long scarf that extended up to his chin. Over time he had become known as the "Demon Eater", which he surmised was apt, seems how he openly fed on Yoma. It seems today that even some of the lower ranked Claymores exhibit signs of apprehension around him.

"Cant be helped" is the only thing that came to mind as he slowly descended the slope towards town...
