Kano

Personality
Silent as the element he bends, Kano is a walking mountain. He rarely speaks, only when at times when talking is needed. He can be quite intimidating at first glance, which he uses to his advantage on his enemies.

History
Abandoned by his parents at birth, Kano was miraculously taken in and adopted by a clan of traveling mercenary's called the Wanderers. They found him in a deserted area of the Earth Republic, crying and bleeding from a cut on his cheek. The rest most of the group wanted to leave the baby for dead, but their leader Burai decided to take him into their clan instead.

From an early age, Kano was trained to become a hardened killer. When his earthbending abilities manifested at the age of six, Burai himself taught Kano how to earthbend, offensively and defensively. At age of 16, he took his first contract: killing a Fire Nation crime lord. Most in his class thought he couldn't pull it off, until he returned with said crime lord's severed head. Burai was impressed. Kano exceeded many expectations placed on him.

Kano had been apart of practically all of his life. They were his family and Burai was the father he never had. To have them all taken away from him shattered him. The mercenary clan known as the Wanderers was slaughtered by one of their own; a man known as Tybalt. Tybalt was treacherous and selfish man who wanted leadership of the clan, but was denied because of his inner plans to unleash them onto the innocent. In retaliation, he and his lackeys took them all out. However, there was one man whom Tybalt had missed. One man whom came home from a job to find his family killed. One man with vengeance on his mind. Kano.

Now, Kano has set his sights on Republic City, where he may escape his pain and find the man responsible.
