Background

Left on the doorstep of a dojo near Naha by a single mother she never knew, Akane was raised by an Uechi-Ryū Jūdan known only as The Lance. From a young age, she was trained in traditional Okinawan martial arts, as well as in the use of the now-ubiquitous katana. She took to martial arts like a fish to water, quickly revealing herself to be a talented physical adept. By the time she was ten, she had achieved the rank of Gokyū, and by the time she turned 19, she had reached Sandan, dominating the martial arts tournament scene in the JIS. Then, shortly after her 21st birthday, she recieved the opportunity of a lifetime: the chance to participate in the Split Knuckle Tournament, a brutal, no-holds-barred, pan-Pacific mixed martial arts tournament held as a joint venture between Wuxing, Inc. and Renraku Computer Systems. There were only two rules: no weapons other than implanted melee weapons, and no magic other than adept powers. She put on an exemplary performance in the qualifiers and quarterfinals, firmly securing her place in the semifinals. It was in the semifinals, however, that she finally met a warrior who she was evenly matched with: a Wuxing-backed Bajiquan prodigy by the name of Wu Yao. Unfortunately, as they squared off against each other, tragedy struck: a double homicide in the viewing booth. Both her master and Yao's had been brutally killed by a single assailant. Both she and Yao immediately resigned from the tournament, each having just lost the person closest to them. In the wake of the tragedy, Akane sought an opportunity for revenge, and found it when Yao came knocking on her door. They traveled together for a year, and eventually, the meager leads they had pointed to one location: Seattle.
