Brief History:
Shiro was a good kid living with his mother and his father being a traveler who came back from time to time. Ever since Shiro was three his mom,Hiruna, would teach him basic water bending techniques.
When Shiro was five someone broke into their house while him and his mom were practicing. Hiruna rushed back inside the house telling Shiro to stay back. Loud noises were heard and there was a scream from Hiruna. Shiro ran into the house only to find his father motionless on the floor. He tried to attack the person but they simply used airbending to send shiro flying into the wall, knocking him unconscious.
When he awoke he instantly began to cry. His uncle, Shin, came to comfort him telling him that from now on he will protect him and take care of him. It took months for Shiro to return to normal.
Shin was a renowned swordsman and waterbender and he took his nephew under his wing teaching him as much as he could.Shin was known for his sword techniques which were unrivaled in there efficiency and speed.
One day when Shiro was 13, his uncle decided to put him to the test and introduced him to someone to spar. Shiro fought with the person and at first it was evenly matched, but after awhile Shiro began to attack more violently and his eyes turned red. He began to injure his sparring partner until he became on the brink of death. Shin put a stop to the bout horrified at what he had just seen. A few seconds later Shiro's eyes turned back to their usual icy blue color seemingly having no memory of what had just happened.
Because of this Shin decided to send his nephew on a journey to find inner peace. As a going away present he gave him a silver fox. So now Shiro has become a traveler searching for a way to calm his inner demons.
