The Last Ying Long
"Swift as the wind,we will use the shadows to shroud our movements. Silent as the night,we will use our blades to cut down our enemies. Let no opposition stand in our way, let no love enter our hearts. Should we forget our words,let death come without hinderence. We are the Fangs of the Dragon that wraps around the Earth." - The Ying Long Pledge
Han Fang which means Brave Wind was born into the world of death and given no alternative for the lifestyle he was to lead as he grew older. His father,brothers,uncles,and cousins had all been selected to follow the same path of despair that he was ushered into at the tender age of 3. For centuries his male ancestors and kin have been trained by monastery monks and master ninja that collectively formed The Hidden Lotus ,so that they could in-turn serve as the personal assassins christened the Yǐng lóng, forever slaves to the Yamato Clan of Japan. Without resistance or second-thought he was sent to the monastery to complete years of rigorous training under various masters until his older counter-part,in this case his father had died in combat serving the 13th Damiyo of the Yamato Clan who had managed to enslave his warrior lineage for generations due to a blood-debt which was established in the feudal days of the East.
In his adolescence he was called to the mountain pagoda's of the Yamato Clan to continue the work his predecessors had started many years ago,carrying out assassinations and preforming clandestine task of espionage and sabotage under the shadow cast by the Tyrant known as Nakamura Yamato. Without question Han was the best of the Fang family and the only one who had worked with an unbreakable dedication and deadly efficiency but it all changed after Han was sent to America to kill a beautiful woman with whom he fell in love with at first sight......
Angel of Death, Broken Wings:
At first Han was going to carry out his mission with no mercy as he had done so many times before. His hair long signifying how many souls he had ushered into the underworld. This was to be a simple task ordered by the Daimyo of the Yamato Clan; kill the daughter of a corporate competitor to gain leverage in a age old rivalry. Her name was Amy Redden and he had never seen such a beauty before. Overcome with emotion from the simple sight of the beautiful goddess he was sent to kill,his heart had began to unblacken as he watched the woman for days,telling himself that he was merely acquiring information before making his move. Though he knew nothing about the woman save the small dossier he was given, he could feel something ache inside of him every time he was about to draw his dagger to slice her throat. How was it that this frail flower of a human could instantly unfreeze his cold assassin demeanor? How could her eyes seem to melt the steel of his blade moments before he struck?
The years he had spent at the monastery of the Hidden Lotus had taught him that in times of doubt one should meditate for three days in a trance like state in order to find ones true self in an existential manner, so before he even attempted to preform his task he withdrew and dug deep into his soul in order to search for answers to the confusing yet profound feelings that hit him like nothing he has ever felt before. When he awoke he was in an enlightened state that allowed him to break free from the chains his mind was bound to, and the debt that his family had paid for was no longer something he would honor. He decided he would instead rebel against the Yamato Clan and save his target rather then end her life, but he soon found out that the assassination had already taken place. (To be Continued)

Weapons and Armor:
Hēi què hù jiǎ I -
Han originally had his armor constructed after being initiated into the Ying Long. As a right of passage he embarked on a four month long journey in the Tibetan mountains under the influence of psychoactive substances in order to find his Jīngshén dòngwù or spirit animal which he would base the traits of his armor off of. After enduring an extensive psychedelic journey in the icy mountains he reached the legendary house of Djinn Geramoun the Mystic Blacksmith who forged his armor and enchanted it with certain properties. Later Han acquired several high-tech instruments to increase the range of his armor's use. The Hēi què hù jiǎ has many capabilities: Temperature Resistance, Anti-Magnetic Qualities , HUD Lenses with Satellite Uplink , Vibranium Soles , Stealth Mode, Filtration System. The suit is light sensitive, darkening when there is more light in the area. His mask included a built-in radio transmitter/receiver and . It has a voice activated computer link and analysis. The lens can zoom and magnify his vision. It also has electromagnetic vision, which includes thermal, sonar, and x-ray vision. It also acts as a conduit for his magic skills.
Hēi què hù jiǎ II -
The Sparrow created an alternate version to his shinobi garbs in order to blend in with the colorfully costumed "heroes & villains" of the world. As the last of the Ying Long he is constantly hunted by the Yamato Death Clan of Akira Overdrive and has designed the second armor to conceal his identity and blend in with others who outfitted themselves as super powered saviors and saboteurs. While in this outfit he abandons his assassin role and acts as a hero interacting with people who would normally not even know he existed. The armor has the same capabilities as his Ying Long variation but his many weapons are not visible and instead housed in a flat space orb that spatially collapses as many items as he pleases.
