Official fact sheet

A Dark Ninja, Akunin, attacks the Elemental Guardian and his wife. As he lies dying, his Elemental Guardian Spirit is passed to his infant heir, Hiro. Moments before Akunin moves in to kill Hiro, he is whisked away to the safety of the Sukoto Clan by Sho, an aged Asian warrior sworn to protect the Elemental Guardian and his lands. Sho trains the boy in the ways of the Sukoto warriors while raising the boy as his own, keeping the heirs true identity a secret in the hopes that he will one day return to rule. Sworn by a creed to protect and defend, but not to eliminate, the Sukoto practice the arts of Taijutsu, an Asian self-protection/elemental martial arts based on the GoDai ?Five Elements? (wind, water, earth, fire and void) excluding the darkest element, ?Ku? or void. By age 22, the boy has become proficient in the martial arts and weapons of Sukoto Ninjitsu. Hiro excels in his training, though he has yet to learn the Magic of the 5 Elements. Akunin, who had taken refuge with a feared Clan practicing the deadly and mysterious art of Ku (void), returns to complete his assassination of the heir, this time killing Sho. With his dying breathe, Sho reveals the boy?s true identity to his prot?g?, and sends him on a quest to learn the Magic of the Elements in order to avenge his family and reclaim his birthright
