User blog:TheMightyTom99/Ronin - Supervillain Idea

This is my idea for a Supervillain for my own Superhero series (Spartan). The Ronin is a villain which Spartan will combat on multiple occasions.



Backstory
Moronobu Akera was born on 29th January, 1966 in the town of Yakumo, Japan. His father, Mamoru, was a local Karate instructor, who taught his son from an early age about the old ways of the samurai who believed in honour and respect.

Moronobu's mother died of cerebral cancer in 1972, leaving him scarred and in constant distrust of the authorities, who he believed had let his mother die. After his father was arrested on drug smuggling charges, Moronobu was raised by his uncle Goemon Ienari, who had previously helped the Yo-Jing Rebels in the Hakkaido region transfer weapons across the Yellow Sea. Goemon taught Moronobu the art of terror and how to fight people with fear.

At the age of twenty-two, Moronobu served in the Johnson South Reef Skirmish, recieving special awards for his bravery and achievements. However, he received a wound to his face from a knife, and he refused medical treatment because of his mistrust of doctors.

With the fortune received from gun smuggling, Moronobu travelled the world, training with Shaolin Monks, Brazilian Pit fighters and even Heavyweight boxing champions. He even gained tutorship from Carlos Hathcock in marksmanship.

Two years after the Johnson Reef Skirmish, The Ronin began to start terrorist attacks on Chinese Military bases worldwide, determined to weaken what he considered to be Japan's enemies.

Confrontations with Spartan
The Ronin first met Spartan in 2002, being the fifth villain the Spartan ever faced. He immediately showed himself to be more than just an average thug or gang boss and was the only villain able to threaten Spartan.

The Ronin is one of five supervillains able to stand up to Spartan in a fight (the others being Scourge, Ghost, Shadow and Last Light).
