Ethan Hei’s journey began in tragedy. Orphaned at a young age, he was taken in by Banshee Ensemble, who saw potential in him. They trained him to be an assassin, teaching him martial arts, stealth techniques, and the art of evasion. Despite the harsh life, he excelled in his training, becoming a master of stealth and combat.

Within the Banshee Ensemble, Ethan found a rival, Ambrose, another talented assassin. Their competition pushed both to their limits, each striving to outdo the other. However, as Ethan grew older, he began to question the morality of his actions. Realizing the wrongness of his deeds, he decided to betray the Ensemble. His plan was discovered, and he was captured by the people who had trained him. They tortured and beat him, trying to break his spirit.

During this ordeal, his latent powers awakened. He discovered his ability to enter Silent Mode, becoming almost invisible to his captors. His heightened senses and shadow control emerged, allowing him to fend off his attackers and escape. Utilizing his previous training and newfound powers, he barely managed to evade his pursuers.

Determined to never be at the mercy of criminals again, Ethan joined the League of Steel, dedicating himself to helping the people subjected to the Ensemble’s rule and overturning the century-long underground operations.
