[i]“Inside of him lies the incredible power of an [i]emperor[/i]. Too bad he’s just some stupid little kid though”[/i] – Matsumoto Taiki, Souta’s Uncle

At any time, Souta is able to call upon two heavily armed samurai to either defend him or attack for him. These samurai can never die. They are not mortal men, but instead, are spirits sent from the heavens to serve under their master.

That doesn’t mean they can’t be defeated. 

These samurais can be defeated in one way and one way only – in combat. If these samurais do find themselves defeated, they will kneel down and commit the art of [i]seppuku[/i] before dissipating into the world of the spirits to rest and recover from their wounds.

This means that if these samurais [i]are[/i] defeated, Souta is simply left undefended.

Be warned though, these samurais have served a long line of people before them, and thus have experience under their belt.[/hider]
[hider=Biography]Once ago, the emperor of the Land of the Rising Sun had a need for a bodyguard. Someone who would stay by his side twenty-four/seven and watch over him, ensuring he would be always be safe as he slept soundly. 

The emperor watched as his guards trained, watching carefully as they walked down the halls of his grand castle, watching for many nights until finally selecting one guard who he had determined to be the hardest working. 

With this guard, the emperor granted part of his power to, giving some of the divine strength which the emperor had to this lowly guard so he could do his new job of protecting the emperor well. 

And that he did.

Over the span of five years, this new bodyguard thwarted over ten foolish attempts to kill the emperor and had even saved the emperor’s son – a job that he was not required to do – from being held hostage by a clan who opposed the emperor and his ways. 

The emperor, impressed by this, ensured that the guard’s family would stay by the emperor’s sons and his sons forever by proclaiming the guard’s family as nobles, having them stay close by the royal castle.

For the next seven hundred or so years, the [i]Matsumoto[/i] family did a fine job as bodyguards for the emperor, each one of them inheriting a small portion of the power they were granted from the emperor before. It wasn’t until the founding of the [i]Imperial Guard[/i] that they were dismissed, but by then, the Matsumoto family had found a secure place in the society as nobles who had managed to start a rather successful company that is still here to this day.

However, their beginnings as mere bodyguards to the emperor would stay with them until the end, for with every single member in the family having access to the same power their ancestors before them had once had – the power of an emperor. 

It is here where Matsumoto Souta’s story begins.

Souta was born to two somewhat loving parents, being the youngest child out of his older three brothers and sister, his siblings had proclaimed him to be the “luckiest” simply because he had gotten the “youngest child” treatment, where the parents are often a bit too lenient on the boy.

Of course, this did not mean Souta was exempt from everything that his parents had forced his siblings to do at a young age. Souta’s parents had to more or less force the young boy to take a martial arts class throughout his childhood as a way to keep the boy entertained while his two parents went off on business trips, and when he had reached high school age, had even sent him off to a high school his siblings had once go to before. More of a private academy than a high school, Souta had no idea what he was in for – or the incredible power inside of him – until his sister had to pull him aside.

Souta’s sister took Souta to the academy herself, giving the boy a tour of the facilities while telling stories of the staff members, the teachers, and the students themselves as they walked around. At the end of the tour, she had finally told Souta of the incredible power that was inside of him, and began to teach the young boy about it – albeit brutally and harshly just like the martial arts training he had received years ago.

As the end of her school year approached, Souta’s sister, knowing that no one would be there for the boy when he would enter high school (since she had to go off to some dreadful new place known as college) made sure that her brother would be well off when he entered by ensuring a spot on the student council for him by giving him her own seat when she would leave.

Souta, still just a measly young boy who has yet to realize the true potential of his power, is now entering a high school full of people he doesn’t know all vying for power – and he’s just been given a seat on the student council.

This can only go so well for him.[/hider]
