Brief History:His mother Erziya(fire bender) passed away during child birth. She was Captian of the guard for the village she lived in with Mikael(her husband and a dark bender).Ruiyn was beaten everyday after age 5 because Mikael felt it was Ruiyn's fault for his wife's death, because of this Ruiyn became very solitary. He would always go into the forest to explore playing with some of the smaller animals.By age 8 he started training with his dark bending, turning the shardows into armor and other various things.
            After age 10 Ruiyn started to exhibit anger profusely after his everyday beatings. After the age of 16 he learned he could harden the shadow around his clothes to armor without using any physical actions. One day while his father was beating him he hardened the shadow between him and his shirt to protect him from the beating. Mikael realizing this covered his hands in shadow to only beat him harder. During his beating Ruiyn became so angry he blacked out. When he regained control he realized he had burned his father to ash and set his house ablaze. The other villagers seeing this began to use there bending to chase him away.
             Ever since then he has been on the road, being a sell sword and doing different odd jobs. At age 25 he found himself wandering onto Ember Island. And this is where his story begins.
