Background:
David Houyi is currently a Forensic Science Major at Megalopolis University, but his is anything but the life of a carefree college student. By day he learns the scientific methods needed to convict criminals in the courts, while at night he patrols the dark back alleys of Megalopolis's worse neighborhoods dealing out a more direct and personal kind of justice. Justice meted out in the persona of the Archer.
David's mother worked for the Talons of the Jade Emperors as a courier until the day Amanda gave birth to him in the back of a brothel in Hong Kong. For five years she ran from the Talon's. Until the day their assassins finally lost her and David's trail in the foothills of the Kun'lun Mountains. Their journey had taken its toll though. David's mother died on the steps of the Yi Monastery, located deep in the valley of the mountains.
The monks took David into their fold and started training him as one of their own. The years passed and over time, the monks honed David's body and senses to an almost supernatural degree, however, after twelve years he felt a burning desire to discover what had drove his mother to her death. A couple years later David found his mother's family living in Hong Kong. It was here he learned his mother had been rescued by and fallen in love with an American super agent. She had decided to keep the birth of their son secret from him in order to protect all of them. Unfortunately the Talons still learned of David's birth, and drove him and his mother across half of China, leading to her death.
For a time David tried to become a normal student. Although enjoying his classes at University, he started to feel his continued presence was a danger to his mother's family. Accepted as a transfer student to Megalopolis University, all of David's paperwork and moving cost were quietly taken care of by a mysterious benefactor known only as the Craftsman. Invited to stay with friends of his grandfather, David currently resides in the back of the family's furniture warehouse in the Foundry.
In a city full of heroes, David saw very little being done to protect the common man. He couldn't stand by and watch more people being hunted and abused by the same kind of gangs and drug dealers that had caused his mother's death. He started patrolling the back alleys of the Foundry. Scouting from the shadows, roof top to roof top, gathering information each night until he knew he would be striking the right people at the right time, in the right place. Only a few days into his reconnaissance, a matte black motorcycle and large package appeared at the warehouse marked "Good hunting, Craftsman".
The motorcycle appeared to be no different than hundreds of similar rocket bikes speeding around the city every day. Opening the package, he found what appeared to be the dueling garb used by the Yi monks at the monastery. Instead of simple white linens however, this outfit looked to be composed of a dark grey modern day fabric used by the military elite. Most startling of all was the compound bow and quiver that accompanied sat at the bottom of the package. While not an expert on the space age materials used to create the bow and arrows, David had trained long and hard in the Way of the Bow and knew what a master-crafted weapon he had been gifted with.
Obviously someone knew of David's past, but apparently it was someone who approved of his agenda and was willing to assist in his mission. He had been running his entire life from these scums, but no longer. For his neighbors, his family, his mother, he would stand by no more. It was time someone was there for them, before another became a victim. It was time for the Archer to strike.

One Year Ago: David was captured by his masters after refusing to accept his "Destiny". He was tortured and had the chakra points blocked that allowed him access to his special abilities.
