Background
Saruji's mother was considered to be samurai, even in the industrialized world of
modern day Japan. She worked for the Yakuza as a close personal assistant to one
of the most powerful leaders of the Yakuza. In that position of power, she
learned a great many secrets that were unknown outside of the highest circles
within the Yakuza. Thus, when Saruji began showing signs of magical adeptness,
she sent him off to be trained by the ancient ninja clan that served the powerful
heads of the Yakuza. Saruji had little contact with his mother, and she remained
busy working for the Yakuza. One night, during a surprise raid by the Triads on
several Yakuza bosses who were meeting in Hong Kong to discuss expansion into the
Chinese market, his mother was kidnapped, along with two of the lower level Yakuza
bosses. It was felt that because of the personal connection, Saruji would be the
best choice to rescue her and the two other Yakuza captured. His infiltration and
rescue of the hostages would be his final test before he was initiated into the
Ninja clan. A week of intensive training and infiltration placed him in precisely
the right time and place to intercept the hostages as they were moved between two
safe houses. When he defeated their captors and moved to free them, his mother
stood suddenly and shot both of the Yakuza bosses as they attempted to escape.
Apparently, she had made use of the kidnapping to escape cleanly from the Yakuza
without incurring dishonor to her son. Saruji was placed in a dilemma, and he
abandoned his mission, fleeing with his mother from the Yakuza. The Triads,
angry at losing their bargaining pieces attempted to first kill them, and then
reveal them to the Yakuza, but Saruji was able to escape. His mother was not so
lucky the second time and was captured by the Yakuza. They tortured her for her
betrayal and she died sometime the next day in the midst of great pain.
Saruji vowed vengeance against the Yakuza, and openly joined the Triads in their
fight against the Yakuza. While there, an elite circle within the Triads composed
entirely of vampires selected him. They initiated him into their order, instilling
him with their curse and granting him great powers in order for him to pursue his
vengeance.
