Raze

Raze

## Background

### 1990s - 2005: Background

Jonah Nine had been on Ra's al Ghul's payroll for many years. Most of his work consisted of arcane research & genetics. After many offsprings of the Demon Head failed to amount to their father's expectations, Ra's tasked Jonah with creating the perfect specimen using his own DNA. It took him many, many years & numerous failures before he had perfected his research with three subjects

Things could've worked in Ra's favor if Jonah wasn't so greedy. Jonah had decided it would much better if he sold the clones to the highets bidder, knowing the money would allow him to continue his research as long as he lived. When Ra's got word of Jonah's deceipt, he sent his assassins to confront & kill the doctor. When they arived, they were not only met by Jonah & his own assassins as bodyguards but by the revelation that his experiments worked, with the clones already accelerating to appear in their early adolescence. In the following battle, Jonah could only make out with two of his test subjects & was forced to leave the other one in their statis pod or risk all his life's work.

### 2005 - 2008: Amir al Ghul

The man now known as Raze was the one left behind in the stasis pod. Instead of disacrding him like some believed he should, Ra's decided to the boy would be raised in the Shadows along with the rest of his children. He most likely spared him due to his own curiousity of Jonah's experiment. He was given the name "Amir," meaning prince or ruler. Ra's believed his name would give the child a goal to reach for.

Amir was raised closely with his brother Brant, who was genetically a year younger than him. Though both were sons of the Demon, that did not mean they were automatically his heirs. Respect & power was to be earned through vigoruous & complex training, one that would continue non-stop for over a decade. It was clear that between the two, Brant was much better at mastering the physical & intellectual components taught to them. But Amir had his own edge. As a result of Jonah Nine's genetic research & testing, Amir had the power to turn himself completely invisible. The two were sent on their rite of passage together, with Amir using his abilities to move around undetected. With the mission complete & the targets neutralized, Amir was given the name "shabah" meaning "ghost."

His brother's natural affinity for combat techniques & weaponry worked to motivate Amir to become as good as him. After walking past Amir doing target practice one day, David Cain decided to teach him how to develop skills in marksmanship & bladed weapons. It took some time for Amir to become a master of the skill, with Cain even wanting to quit a few times. Done with his training, Amir decided to put a twist on his new ability & laced his knives with poison. The poison worked as a safety net so that if the knife did not kill the target on impact, then the poison would activate, causing the target to overheat & die in agony. Amir then took on the additional name of Razorburn & joined the Seven Men of Death after the departure of another member.
