Snow Leopard is his best friend. History: Sumato grew up in the Yuzo Clan, a clan of assassins that use stealth and martial arts to their advantage. People are to hire them when someone is breaking the law, or for the most part, just need someone assassinated. Due to there being peace for most of the time, the little work they got began not to matter as training their young in the art of assassination has became tradition with the Clan. Sumato grew up reading about anatomy to start his training off, restlessly he did, learning about vital spots and pressure points. (Age four) Then he began his physical training, training he was supposed to go through with for eighteen years. First part of training was speed, he spent hours running, learning how to go faster as he went, but was also taught to take light steps to be silent. Within a few months, he got it down, almost perfectly. (Age 4 [Started]-[Finished] 5) Next was agility, he spent hours jumping on a trampoline doing flips. Once he was finished flipping for a few hours, he'd get on a more rocky surface and start flipping there. Falling a few times getting cuts and bruises, he did alright, and went back to the trampoline. The second part was to always land in one spot on the trampoline, while doing flips and slowly getting higher and higher. He got it down within a couple hours, then put those skills to the test in a forest where he began hopping from tree to tree, only alerting animals when he got near due to them not hearing him. As it helped practice his agility and stealth, it also helped with stamina as he kept going even if he were dying for a breath. (Age 5 [Started]-[Finished] 6) Next he worked on his hand-eye coordination, which started off with writing without looking at his hands. He were to look at words on a wall then write them down, at first he used to scribble a mess on the desk he were working on. Within a few months, he atleast got writing on the paper down. It took another few months for him to perfect getting the words down, but he did. The second step was now writing without looking at his hands, or words on the wall. He were to memorize quotes and then write them down....It took a year for him to do so, but he did so well. The third part was throwing weapons, he first studied them. Shuriken, senbon (Bo shuriken), kunai, and even some swords. It took him a two months into a new year to finish reading, then he began with his weapons. In a training field, he were to hit training dummies where the targets lay without aiming. He missed for a while, but only because he was trying to get a feel for the weapons. As he got used to them, he began hitting the targets directly. That was one of the quickest they've seen anyone improve in ranged weapons, next they took the targets off and Sumato had to remember where they were and hit them...He did perfectly, and was now ready to go to the next stage. (Age 6 [Started] - [Finished] 9) At age nine, Sumato had walked off into the woods to practice with his father. That's when they came across a baby animal, one so young that it couldn't even open it's eyes. His father tried to kill it since it would never be able to fend on it's own, but Sumato protested against it. His father got the wrong idea and tried to make Sumato kill it to make him stronger, give him no weakness, but at that age Sumato had been more mature than most kids. He persuaded his father into making him keep the animal, and they brought it back to the Clan grounds where Sumato cared for it. Within a month, it had already grown, and Sumato saw that it was a girl and named her Snow. When Sumato wasn't training, he played and cared for Snow. But he had lots more training to do. He trained in the arts of Muay Thai, Northern Shaolin Kung Fu, and Chaquan. He trained in those for a year, perfecting the basics and even learning how to use a sword within it. Snow herself learned a few things from a personal trainer, learning how to move silently and quickly and trained to track more than her basic instincts allowed. [Age 9 [Started] - [Finished] 10) W.I.P
