You are Y/N L/N, 16 years old and just a normal, average citizen of Vale living in an apartment...
Ok well not exactly normal or average citizen. You originally came from Mistral and that place is where you had started your career as "Death". In Mistral you were abandoned(Shocker I know) at the age of 7 and were forced to take of yourself... Which lasted about 3 days until you passed out and woke up in a strangers home. Said stranger was a gruff but willing person who saved you and offered experience and knowledge. You, being the young and unknowing child you were agreed, not knowing what he met by "experience".
Well he was apparently an ex-hunter who lives on bountys offered in the... Shadier parts of Mistral, the underground if you will. He had trained you without mercy and you had learned two weapons, from his command but your choosing. He had propped up a book filled with various weapons for you to pick from. He had given you only an hour to choose 2 weapons and you mostly skimmed past most of the book until you reached the sword, a common and versatile weapon. Shortly after you mentally noted the sword as one of the weapons you want to learn, the scythe had caught your attention. A mostly unwieldy weapon but extremely dangerous in trained hands.
With 10 minutes to spare you notified your "parent" lets say and asked him to train you with those weapons. After a quick confirmation he went to the blacksmith and got you a sword and scythe the next day. You were vigorously trained and was making great strides of progress. At the age of 11 you had pretty much mastered the battle techniques he could offer you.
Also at the age of 11, you had discovered your semblance. Telekinesis. You had discovered it when, on your way back to home from a task your parent gave you were jumped by a few guys wanting your money, weapons and the bag that contained your parent's requested item. You had mastered the techniques of sword and scythe while these common thugs only know how to stab and slash with a dagger or switchblade. You had defeated most of them with ease but a few still stood. These few had pulled out guns and shot at you. You were in the middle of pulling your sword out of one of the thugs when this happened. Closing your eyes you prepared for the worst...
But nothing had hit you. Opening your eyes you had discovered the bullets were levitating in midair. The thugs still alive were as bewildered as you. You had discovered that you controlled this and, with sadistic pleasure, made the bullets shoot back at the remaining thugs, killing them.
When you told your parent about this he was impressed and said something along the lines of "geez kid, what are you, death?"
That was your inspiration to your alias and your symbol, too, was influenced. Your symbol was a sword and scythe in an x formation with a skull infront of it. Kinda like your generic pirate symbol but with your own twist.
With this your parent started taking you with him to the "underground". Not with what you were wearing however. Before bringing you he had gotten you a mask with protected eye holes and your symbol on it. You had also gotten your other items which was a coat with a hoodie that was grey. Grey slightly baggy pants and black shoes with orange markings. You had gotten your coat based of what your parent wore, which was, much like yours, a coat with a hoodie. Except his was black. Your pants was something you wanted comfortable and that's what you got. Your shoes you got simply because all the other shoes weren't mostly black, which is what you needed for your line of business.
You were brought along with your parent's missions(bounties) and had a hands on experience in the life of bounty hunting. Most of the missions consisted of assassin missions where you are told or forced to locate a target and kill them. Occasionally you would do bounties for killing a specific grimm or simply locating somebody.
Despite the low-life style of the house you live in with your parent, you guys actually make some big bucks. Most of the lien you acquire are from assassinating other hunters which always offer a ludicrously large amount of lien.
