Elektra was born to a small group of traveling performers. As the daughter of the headlining attraction, a skilled knife-thrower, Elektra was thrust into the spotlight at a young age. She quickly learned to love the attention and the applause that came with her parents' performances. At the tender age of six, Elektra began training to follow in her father's footsteps. She showed a natural aptitude for throwing knives and daggers, and her parents were eager to showcase her talents. By the time she was eight, Elektra was a regular part of her parents' show, throwing knives at targets while her mother danced and her father told jokes. The audience loved her, and she loved the attention. As she grew older, Elektra's skills only improved. By the time she was a teenager, she was one of the best knife-throwers in the business. Her parents were proud of her and celebrated her talents, but Elektra always felt like something was missing. She wanted more than just applause; she wanted fame and glory. One night, when she was sixteen, Elektra snuck out of her parents' camp to explore the nearby town. There she met a man who called himself Antonius – a deadly assassin who had never been caught. Antonius took Elektra under his wing and taught her everything he knew about killing silently and without detection. Elektra quickly became Antonius's most prized pupil. She carried out assassination after assassination with cold precision, always returning to Antonius for more work once her contract was complete. Over time, word spread throughout the underworld that there was a new assassin in town – one who could not be caught and who always got the job done perfectly. The rumours eventually reached the ears of royalty, and it wasn't long before Elektra had wealthy clients begging for her services. She became known as The Silent Shadow due to her ability to move like a ghost through even the most heavily guarded estates undetected. To this day, no one knowsElektras real name or where she comes from – only that she is one of the deadliest assassins in history
