Back-story:
Born and raised in the forests around Mierani. Tanaka lived a pretty quiet home life, outside of his home though was another matter. He was always the target of peoples abuse whether it was physical or verbal. I quietly just accepted his fate. Until one day a wanderer who was coming through noticed the group of people ganging up on someone. This caused him to charge in and scare off the attackers. They scattered in all directions as this giant of a man rushed towards them. "Who, who's there?" I whimper. "I am just a traveler who goes by the name Andrei." he says with humility.
Andrei hung around for a while after saving me from that beating. He offered to teach me some unarmed combat so i could defend myself if things turned out like that again. I was hesitant to accept the offer at first but then I thought it would be a good way to get back at my assailants for all they have done to me. "I gladly accept your offer Andrei I feel this would be a good way to learn not only how to defend myself but to learn about myself as well." A few weeks went by Andrei and I got to know about each other a little better. I learned that he frequents areas between here and Sandpoint and that it was his father who taught him his techniques.
These first few days were very tough on me though as I learned how weak i really was the bumps, bruises, and cuts were starting to take a toll on me. Angry at how slow i am catching on to things I begin to lash out at everyone around me. Good news for me though is Andrei had just left not that long ago otherwise I would be out of luck on my training. During the time Andrei was away I would always try to find people willing to spare with me but to no avail. After about a month and a half of self training Andrei came back to town. I asked him so spar with me to show him my improvements and after a few rounds Andrei asks to stop as I have proved my improvement. He then asks if i would like to learn something other then unarmed combat reaching for his tonfa. Of course I would like to learn how to use your tonfa or at least i assumed this is what he was getting at. During this time I also decided it would be a good chance to spring my new skills on those who had been tormenting me. One day after a training sessions with Andrei they tried to jump me again this time though i overpowered them and beat one of them to near death and several others quite badly.
Some time has passed since defeating your attackers but you feel guilty about the damage you caused because you learn soon after one of those men had died due to the injuries they suffered. The only way you feel you can live with the guilt is to leave this place and see if Andrei will let you join him in his journeys and help center your emotions and thoughts. He agrees to take me along with him for a time. A few months go by and one night we were travelling along and attacked by a group of masked people. I was quickly defeated by the group and Andrei was knocked out from behind while trying to save me. After he was knocked out they took him off into the night and left me to fend for myself. Wanting to find the man i felt to be my mentor I set out the town he frequented to see if i can find any sort of lead on if he made an enemies or angered any guilds. This town was Sandpoint.
