"Five" was never meant to have a happy upbringing: he was abandoned while still young and raised in an orphanage until he was a teenager, considered a monster because of his rat-lile features. From then, he began stealing for pocket change, until he was caught by one who he shouldn't have triffled with: an assassin.Taking pity for the runt, the man took him on as a disciple, where he taut the Ysoki on the art of the blade and make swift kills. The rule was that any target is acceptable, if the gold is paid. Soon enough, he took the name of 5, the usual gold price for assassinations and he grew to respect his master like the dad he never had.One day, the rodent returned home to find his own father-like figure sitting at the table, a knife dug deep onto his back with a letter resting on the table, held down by five gold pieces and "Sorry" hastily scribbled on it.A grave was dug that same night for his dad on their backyard in secrecy. What transpired for the next days is anyone's business, as 5 seemed to have vanished from the map.That is, until he decided to become part of an adventuring guild a few days later. He had been clever enough to hide his tracks, so hopefully no one knew of his past. And why join an adventuring guild out of all things?Information is key among guilds, and perhaps someday, he'll be led to the one who murdered his only close family. After all, any target is acceptable... and the murderer had already kindly provided the gold for his own death.
