The last of four sons of the politically powerful Kumazawa family, Toraji was born into the intellectual "neo-dentouteki" generation, the epitome of a century of reform by the "Anshin Ritsumei Kousei" ("Enlightenment Rebirth") which sought to preserve the traditions of ancient Japan and integrate them into the rapidly increasing realm of technology. Like his elder brothers before him, Toraji showed extraordinary intelligence at a very young age, mastering Japanese, Standard, and Canto-Mandarin almost immediately and at the same time. Unlike his brothers, however, Toraji also showed a shimmering yet tightly controlled violent rage and a very personal level of honor which induced him into brutality when provoked.

When Toraji was a baby, his father, Zenriki, was elected the San'yokan of Tokyo over the other candidates presented by the other powerful families, giving him control of all Japanese territory and essentially making him one of the most powerful people in the world. Zenriki fortified the Ryuoujin parliament and reformed the Japanese government to make it a modified socialist republic. Zenriki was continually elected after his initial eight year term due to the remarkable economic success shown during his tenure, as well as the voluntary secession of numerous previously non-aligned states to Japan.

Due to this, Toraji became an atypically quiet intellectual feared by his fellow students and even teachers for his violent temper. Only at home was he still shown compassion, amongst his powerful father, his caring mother, and his brothers and sisters. Yet he still violently raged on even in this sanctum of his supporters.

The turning point of his life was at the age of nine. After a seemingly meaningless argument, Toraji erupted into a frenzy and fought against two of his brothers. The second youngest, Masaro, emerged from the fight with a concussion and broken ribs. The middle child, Renjin, fought brutally with Toraji and finally subdued him after a vicious fight. However, Renjin collapsed and was hospitalized afterwards, as was Toraji. After the incident, Toraji wept profusely for what he had done. His manner was repentant, but it became apparent that his destructiveness would only grow. Zenriki reluctantly decided to do something he wished he could spare his dear Toraji and the family from, but the brutality displayed by Toraji in the fight left it evident that if nothing was done, Toraji would become a cruel murderer whose natural talents were wasted.

Toraji was sent to a mountain monastery, run by an archaeic and arguably radical group of "warrior" monks whose primary claim to respect was repelling Chinese invaders in the moutains in 2050's during the brutal war between Japan and China. The order's offered principles constituted controlling rage by building it and releasing it when needed. The transfer to the monastery was made discreetly and with no acknowledgement to the public. Toraji was soon forgotten for the next seven years, but he would come back and be remembered.

Toraji was taught a neo-traditional style of combat, meshed with what some called dangerous and eccentric philosophy about life. However, the training did bring Toraji what Zenriki had hoped it would: discipline. Toraji was taught how to control himself perfectly and efficiently, while at the same time extensively studied the secrets of how a small group of poorly armed and "untrained" monks were able to defeat superpower armies again and again. The monks taught Toraji how to fight as they did, and in doing so, played with a two-edged sword. Toraji would definitely learn how to fight efficiently, but the ability to learn control was a mere possibility; should he only learn the former, he would be as dangerous as any assassin had ever been in Japan.

Toraji returned at the age of sixteen, somewhat changed, but still with a sense of undulating loyalty towards his father and a sense of servitude and repentance towards his brothers. Gradually, life for the Kumazawa class began to proceed on the normal course of a typical powerful family.

Two months after Toraji returned, snipers attempted to assassinate Zenriki. Zenriki was shot and nearly died; Toraji swore to use everything he had been taught to find the cell that had preyed upon the San'yokan and announced his mission to all of Japan and promised to return in a week.

At the week's end, thirteen terrorists had been found at the entrance of the capitol square in various forms of existence and non-existence. The ensuing trials for the leaders were followed violently by the masses, who demanded justice for the attempt to kill the San'yokan. Little realized was the fact that Toraji never resurfaced at the week's end. The government stated months later that Toraji had been killed in an explosion in the Macao Province of Japan, though Zenriki and his family knew the truth.

Toraji now works as part of the Japanese government's highly secretive, highly lethal Kurenai gumi, known only slightly more in other countries than in Japan, where the citizens have never seen any mention of the group anywhere. Toraji's close ties with the San'yokan allow him to carry out highly secretive missions, and he already has; the only reason Toraji is not recognized as the best assassin and spy in the world is because he has never been caught.
