Biography:
Kerne, until two years ago, was a normal boy growing up in West City. He attended school like a normal boy, had normal crushes like a normal boy, was normal to all typically assumptions. Little did anyone know, but fate had selected greater things for him. At the time of his birth the three sisters of fate, spun his life with the thread of fate and he could not avoid the destiny ordained for him. It would be a life of providence but also that of change.
Returning to two years ago, Kerne as a fifteen year old boy, attended a Kendo class as a part of his studies. Before this he was a typical intellectual student, he didn’t want to participate, or enjoy participating in most physical activities. Kerne had always argued that the power of the mind would always exceed the power of the body, this would remain true. At first his performance in his Kendo class, was subpar to be generous, but an incident when practicing at home would change this. Kerne was in his backyard one evening practicing Kendo, when a coruscating, iridescent energy began flowing from his hands. It passed along his wooden practice sword and wrapped it in a sheath of energy that glowed in a myriad of colors. He was so startled he threw his practice sword and ran into his house. For weeks he refused to touch anything that resembled a sword, until he decided to try it with a different practice sword and the same thing happened but after the second incident the voices began. A gentle, southing, soft feminine voice resounded in his head, advising him and guiding him. Kerne was kept awake for weeks by the voice, his academics slipped, he turned from an excellent student to a trouble teenager. Though one thing improved, he had become a peerless student of Kendo, he almost seemed to know what would happen next in a fight. From here he studied under renowned martial artists to harness what appeared to be almost supernatural powers.
After a year he was able to operate with voice, his academics recovered and he continued his physical training being guided by the sublime female voice. The voice is his guide, tapping into his own string of fate.
