You are a lowly peonyour mother and father do not have the money to endenture you into a apprenticeshipnor do they have money to send you to school to be a scholor.  Your family is suffering and has to put you out on your own so that they can feed the younger ones who are just children and you are alone.  You have no options at all till one day walking down the street a wiry little guy walks up to you and offersyou a new way of life.

Slowly I turn intothe shadows and depart once more into the night...it is always I who has to have the blood on my hands...it is always I who in the end will always be infamous...always hated.  I lift my head to the dark heavens and laugh softly."Let them hate me if that will give them cause to live,let them play havokon my nature but never will they grasp at the Rogue behind the Mask...no never," I muse to myself while fading into the darkness.
