History
Birth and Young Childhood
Ryan Woods was born on May 1st 1991 on Earth-120 in the mountains of British Columbia Canada in a place called the White Dragon Monastery. The Monastery is one of three that were established by his mother with the other two being located in China and Japan. Ryan is the older twin brother to his sister Christine Woods. The twins parents were a Canadian Medical Doctor named Jason Woods and an English/Irish Swords-woman by the name of Alyssa Woods (formerly Cartwright).
Upon the birth of the twins, their mother gave possession of her magical talisman that she crafted called the Yin-Yang Shēnxīn to her children. The Chinese talisman was constructed of two pieces shaped in the symbol of the Yin-Yang. Christine was given the black half while Ryan received the white half. Both pieces contained minor powers of the Black Stone of Darkness and the White Stone of Courage because fragments of the stones were crafted into the talisman.
At the time of their birth, Alyssa was under the effects of Guardian Status. Reproducing offspring while under Guardian Status was forbidden and she violated the Code of the Guardians. The Council of High Guardians quickly discovered Alyssa’s betrayal of their code and retaliated.
By having children under the influence of the Guardians Blessing, her children could potentially carry Guardian Blood in their DNA. With the Guardians bloodline being tied back to Titans and Gods, the Guardians had to be cautious because the reproducing cycle was what weakened and killed off their ancestors in the first place. Since only a select few of Original Pure Blooded Guardians existed, they were the ones who made up the High Council. It was the High Council’s duty to control and protect their ancestral Bloodline and act accordingly to those who oppose their rules.
Although the twins showed no signs of having any extraordinary powers or abilities, Alyssa was striped her of her Guardian Powers reverting her back to a regular 32-year old woman. The Guardians wanted to replace the life-force that was taken from them by devouring the life force of the twins. Unable to harvest their life force because the power of the Yin-Yang Shēnxīn protected the twins from harm they instead took the life force of their father Jason Woods.
Alyssa pleaded with the Guardians to take her life instead of her husband as she had already lived for several lifetimes. The Guardians denied her request and decided to make an example out of her. They devoured Jason’s life-force leaving a crippling and thin man to die in her arms. Being a regular human now caused PTSD for Alyssa as she suffered with current events and the trauma of her past. The death of her husband was so traumatic for Alyssa because it reminded her of the death of Echo a former Warrior in Arms.
Without her Guardian Status, she struggled to cope with anxiety and depression. The only advantage for Alyssa living for long time was that she had the opportunity to met and befriend a lot of people. Some of these people she turned to help her during this crisis. Alyssa grieved long and hard about the death of her husband and turned to what friends she had for assistance.
Not being in the right mindset, Alyssa believed that her children would be better off without her and not knowing the truth surrounding their birth and the events of her own life. As a result she separated her children by sending them to different White Dragon Monastery’s. With the Black Piece of the Yin-Yang Shēnxīn Christine was sent to China where Billy Chong would become her adoptive father. Ryan would be sent to Japan with the White Piece where the Nakamura Brothers would foster him. The half shaped Yin-Yang symboled talisman would be the only thing the twins would have that would belong to their mother.
Ryan and Christine were left to live separate, yet similar lives from one another not knowing either of their parents, each other or the truth surrounding their birth. Both of them were orphans raised by the individuals who operated each Monastery until they got older.
Ryan’s Path
Ryan had a different and difficult upbringing than his sister. Being left in Japan he was raised as a Warrior by two Ninja Brothers named Katashi Nakamura (Shadow) and Katsu Nakamura (Snake-Bite). Ryan’s youth was spent molding him into a Warrior as he learned the fighting styles of Jujutsu and Kendo. Ryan would spend many hours a day crafting his skills as a Warrior to become the future of the White Dragon Warriors. His training was difficult for him because both his trainers had different fighting styles and philosophies when it came to combat.
Shadow focused his teachings on the honorable aspects of Martial Arts and taught defensive fighting and self-discipline. The core of his training was to understand when and when not to fight teaching alternatives to fighting and focusing on the strengthening of Ryan’s inner spirit. Snake-Bite took a more violent approach as his training by focusing on power and aggression. The core of his training was to win at all costs no matter what and always be victorious and defeat your opponent.
The differences in opinions between the brothers caused conflict with Ryan being caught in the middle. Not to mention they both shared the same love interest, a Japanese woman named Emiko Yoshida who served as a mother figure to Ryan. Ryan was eventually forced to decide who to side with. In the end Ryan choose Shadow and Snake-Bite was banished from the White Dragon Warriors.
Almost a year went by until Snake-Bite extracted his revenge. After being rejected by his student and love interest Snake-Bite spiraled out of control and formed a guild of Murderous Thieves called The Vendetta Clan. The Vendetta Clan quickly became the rivals of The White Dragon Warriors.
In 1999, Snake-Bite and the Vendetta Clan mount an attack on the White Dragon Monastery in Japan. During the invasion Snake-Bite murders his brother Katashi Nakamura and Emiko Yoshida leaving Ryan without a family. Snake-Bite attempts to kill Ryan while he retrieves his masters blade,Nightshade. Ryan battles with Snake-Bite and is almost killed until he escapes with the help of the other White Dragon Warriors. Fleeing from Japan, Ryan manages to safely hideaway at the Monastery in Canada.
Meeting Christine
At the age of 8, Ryan fled from Japan to Western Canada after his foster parents were killed. It was fate that had reunited him with his twin sister, Christine, since their initial birth. When they first met, the two connected immediately and shared a strong bond. Billy Chong confirmed to them that they were in fact siblings and shared with them some of the secrets of their talismans. He did not however mention anything about their biological parents as he was sworn to secrecy.
For the next four years Ryan and Christine became inseparable from one another teaching and learning from each other. Using the Dragon Monastery in Canada as their new home while they both continued to train in their preferred Martial Art styles. Together they learned the secrets of the Yin-Yang Shēnxīn while still trying to have a normal teenaged life.
Teenage Years
As a teenager Ryan was not popular in High School. He did not receive the same status as his sister and was considered an outcast. His physical physique managed to keep bullies away but he had very few friends. Ryan would spend most of his free time perfecting his Martial Arts and meditating.
Young Adult Life
Not to long after high school graduation, Ryan inherited the Leadership of the White Dragon Warriors. Since the death of Shadow the guild slowly diminished as the Vendetta Clan haunted down the remaining White Dragon Warriors. Ryan gathered what members remained and returned to Japan to rebuilt the Monastery. There, he trained the next-line of White Dragon Warriors.
Eventually Ryan would move to the Concrete Jungle. He had heard that Snake-Bite and the Vendetta Clan had been operating within the Region of Chaos Valley and wanted to retaliate. He gathered a few White Dragon Warriors and opened a Karate Dojo in the City of Blue Water within the Concrete Jungle. There he taught Karate as a Sensei and his sister followed becoming an Instructor. Christine would eventually leave her brothers company and go her separate way. Ryan would remain in the Concrete Jungle and focus on tracking down Snake-Bite to seek revenge.
