Born outside of Kyoto in a village with no name. Ryo Aisukage was born to a family of two. He was raised apart of the village's clan known as "The Shadow Lineage." The head master was his own father, Saiyo Aisukage. His mother, Ayane Aisukage. Was a shrine maiden. By the age of 20 he was raised to become a Jonin level Shinobi. His father then placed him on his personal task force known as "the Deathly Trinity". The leader was the arcane master "Death Fathom" The other member was Martial Arts master "Death Mirage". Ryo joined as the teams weapons master. He took the name "Death Shade". After retrieving a sword of power known as "Kage no Akuma" for his father. This sword was fabled to give the wielder the power of the nine Hell's as long as they killed all members of their blood line. Everyone his team was then branded as a traitor for attempted murder on the clan master. This included Ryo.
They thus ran from the village. Barely able to make it out with their lives. The were then told by Fathom of another sword. "Kaze no Aoi" hidden in a mountain. This sword was able to give the wielder the ability of precognition. As well as protect them from Psionics. Giving the wielder the ability of foresight. But only a true swordsman could get the sword. Thus it was up to Ryo. After proving himself worthy he was able to obtain the sword. During the time away he was attacked by a rogue Ninja sent by his father to kill him. A Kunoichi named Laurel Sanura. But given her hesitation. Ryo knew she couldn't harm him. Thus letting her live. They then assaulted the village with Ryo leading the charge. Leading to a confrontation with a new task force made up of mutants. Known as "X-Tinction". One was Ryo's step brother Youta Aisukage. Also known as Dreadnought. Who donned the armor of the titans. After a long and grueling fight it was down to Ryo and Saiyo.
The fight took everything out of them. but on the final charge between them both. They infused the blades with their own chi. Thus on the clash it shattered the blades. For they were never meant to clash. On this note, Ayane stepped into to stop the fighting. Only to be cut down by her own husband to start the power gain. Devastated. Ryo stayed with his mother. Holding her in his arms till she finally passed away. The clans head master went to Death Fathom. As for the Kaze no Aoi? It was reforged into a set of claws. The blades only retained half of their strength. But the master forger had one request. To find his son in China and take him to America to train him. He set out to find David Cain. Who was a 9 year old kid by then. They both set off to America and reclaimed Karas Enterprises. A business that was making weapons for the Shadow Lineage. This was controlled by Saiyo. Ryo then told them his father had died and he was there to take over as CEO. Which given his blood line. Shown he was trained for this work. He redesigned Karas and began his work to use his talents to help change the world. But still needed to track his father by other means. Thanks to a child prodigy, Christian Cole. He was able to design a suit to help disguise himself as he became the dark vigilante, Shadow-Wing. Modeled after the Crow which served as his family's Guardian. He took to the streets and thus becoming a shadow for justice.

Zooming is also a given in this mode. He has a 200x zoom at a moments notice. The Eye lens on his suit as well as his belt will light up when this mode is active. He will also gain a holographic targeting overlay that can assist him when making a difficult throw or aim. He is able to use this mode for detective work. Doing DNA and splatter work testing. As well as due to the uplink from Raven's Net he is able to access files from his personal database in this mode. One weakness to this mode is that light become severaly sensitive.
