Background
- Being born on the Karate Island in the South Blue, Shio grew up surrounded by Martial Arts traditions
- As a weak and scrawny kid, Shio always looked up to the various masters on the island wishing to be just like them.
- After his father´s approval he joined a Karate dojo, but since he was weak and untalented he was forced to leave because of bullying from older students and some instructors. He tried to join different Dojo right afterwards but the same situation repeated over and over again. It didn´t break him however if anything, it only strengthened his determination. To cure his weakness he created a training routine for himself consisting of some basic calisthenics and running. It didn´t actually do much for him, but his tenacity and determination was noticed by one of the less known masters on the island who decided to give him a chance. This master had no Dojo or other students as the style of Karate he was teaching was very physically demanding and he was counted as one of the strictest teachers around. Fore several years Shio didn´t learned single technique only doing basic body hardening drills, weightlifting and flexibility training to build a body that would be able to keep up with the demands of Kyoukushin techniques. Many people including his master were sure, that he will give up, but he didn´t and build exceptionally powerful and resilient body instead.
- He was already in his twenties when his master finally decided it´s time to teach him some proper techniques. However he never made it past the few basic Kata´s and their application as his master passed away from an old age, taking all the advanced techniques with him. This time seeing him as a potentially very promising recruit, many schools tried to scout him, but he refused all of them as he couldn´t forget the treatment he initially received from them. Instead he decided to leave his birth island and travel the world to develop his own style from the basics his master let him.
- Lacking any real skills and education he however found himself quickly without money and so he accepted job as a bodyguard for wealthy businessman. Originally he thought that this position will give him enough money and freedom to pursue his dream, but he got quickly absorbed into his new life and forget everything about becoming martial arts master.
- Ten years later he had great name in his line of work, his own house, wife and two children, everything man could hope for, but deep inside, he wasn´t truly satisfied. It wasn´t until one odd job during which he was forced to cooperate with bunch of mercenaries his master hired, Shio realized what he was missing. Being reminded of the wondrous wold of martial arts again, after the job was done, he left his employer and joined Eric and through him the M.A.R.I. instead to have an opportunity to study true martial arts again.
- Becoming mercenary instead Shio traveled the world with Eric and his Wolves and became one of the central member of their group however he despite all his strength he never made it among the high ranking members as he takes frequent leaves to spend time with his family.
