Backstory: Carbine Brooklyn was born in 1944 on July fourth on the island of Manhattan, right in the center of New York City. She grew up in a sorcerer family that held long traditions and even longer expectations. From the moment she could stand, she showed prodigal talent, able to manipulate and manifest spiritual energy at thr age of six. At the age of ten, she awakened two sorcery techniques at the same time, gravity manipulation and anti gravity manipulation, something her family had never seen before. Her parents treated her like a rare gem, but also like an investment, praising her talent more than her person.

By the age of fifteen, they offered her to the newly formed Culling Syndicate, convinced they were giving her the best chance to become a powerful sorcerer. Once she arrived, everything changed. Her days became a cycle of brutal training and sleepless nights. Her trainers worked her body until she bled, insisting this was rhe proper way a sorcerer with her potential needs to train. She was thrown into fights against elite grade one sorcerers while still a teenager, beaten until she adapted and learned.

This unforgiving style of teaching lasted years, shaping her into someone who barely remembered childhood comfort. By the age of twenty one she had fully mastered both of her techniques, bending gravity and spirit energy as naturally as breathing. In 1965 she was sent on her first mission in East Germany, a test meant to break her or crown her. She eliminated over thirty elite grade assassins alone, nearly crushing every elite grade assassin the IAA had at rhe time. The IAA considered it a nightmare report, and the Culling Syndicate called it proof of their greatest and latest weapon.

Both factions eventually ranked her as one of the three supreme grade sorcerers alive, placing her second only to Renji, the strongest sorcerer of that era. In 1977 everything shifted when Renji battled the strongest Ten'yo in Manhattan, a catastrophic fight that ended with both dead, the battle titled the "Manhattan Showdown". With Renji gone, the Syndicate placed Carbine as the strongest sorcerer in the world.

For the next four years, her life became colder and emptier. People stopped talking to her as a friend and began treating her like a loaded gun wrapped in human skin. Orders came down to her like commands to a machine, and she followed them without pause. Those people who once laughed with her now avoided her eyes, afraid of the power she carried. The loneliness gnawed at her until it hollowed out everything she believed in.

By early 1981 she finally broke. Using her rank and her unmatched strength, she refused the Syndicate’s latest order and walked away from their control. She vowed to end the endless feud between sorcerers and Ten'yo, even if she had to stand against both factions to do it.

FACTIONS

I.A.A. (International Association of Assassins): Founded in 1958, an organization of Ten'yo that sought to fight back against sorcerer influence through the political and real world and the oppression of Ten'yo by eliminating high ranking Culling Syndicate officials around the world.

Culling Syndicate: Founded in 1958 just a few months before the IAA was formed. It is an organization of sorcerers with the goals to create a world in which only sorcerers reign supreme and those without sorcery to be subjected to death or harsh oppression

Important Info

Ten'yo

The term meaning Godsend/heavens gift, Ten'yo are people born without spirit energy but instead are born with superhuman like bodily abilities such as increased speed, strength, durability, all five senses awakened to their max potential, etc

Sorcerer

A person who awakened their innate technique/special ability and can manipulate Spirit Energy for combative, medical or other purposes

Spirit Energy

Spirit Energy/Spiritual energy is a form of magical energy that all beings in the world (except Ten'yo) are born with. Spirit energy originates in the brain allowing potential for sorcery/innate techniques to be awakened under circumstances such as a strong emotion or near death experiences.

Rankings

Supreme grade: Has the destructive capacity and potential to take on a nation with sheer power on their lonesome. Also a title given to and agreed upon by both factions (IAA and Culling Syndicate)

Elite grade: People who lack the destructive capacity/potential to take on a nation but are able to contend with supreme grade level beings. Significantly stronger than Elite Grade 1's.

Elite grade 1: Senior level experienced assassin highly skilled and proficient in eliminating sorcerers and key political figures within the Culling Syndicate with minimal failure and overwhelming strength, most are often even picked to be IAA directors personal guards. (highest rank attainable by the average Ten'yo. ---Sorcerers who are highly skilled with spirit energy and their technique, able to kill assassins with a high success rate. Sorcers also given this grade have the potential to he an elite grade or higher. Most sorcerers with this rank are assigned as body guards for key political figures or other important persons.

(This rank can be given by both factions to an individual who does not align with either. This goes for supreme/elite grade)

Grade 1: Assassins/Ten'yo are given this rank upon participating within the IAA's selection event. Upon receiving this rank assassins can either progress to elite grade 1 or choose to be teachers/representatives of the IAA. --- Sorcerers who are given this rank are selected to be trainers and recruiters for future sorcerers to combat the IAA. In special cases a small minority of sorcerers with this rank are placed in a small division to accompany elite grade 1 sorcerers as backups

Grade 2: Assassins who have a fundamental understanding of how to deal with sorcerers and know how to handle weaponry. -- Sorcerers who understand how to use and manipulate spirit energy and have awakened their innate abilities, if they haven't already.

Grade 3: Semi Experienced Assassin/Sorcerer or lacking in potential.
