Ayane (Kanji: 綾音, Hiragana: あやね) is a kunoichi and member of the Mugen Tenshin clan. She is also the master of the Hajin mon sect of her clan, which is secretive off-shoot of the main branch of the clan itself. The Hajin mon are tasked with both supporting the main branch, as well as the safeguarding of the clan's village.

Ayane's origins are quite controversial, and part of an old family grudge. The former leader of the Mugen Tenshin, Shinden, was chosen over his younger brother, Raidou, as clan leader. Raidou was seen as unstable, power-hungry, and evil. In retaliation, he raped Shinden's wife, Ayame, and stole several artifacts from the village. Ayane was the result of the attack, and thus was looked down on as a cursed child, the product of an evil birth.

She is half-sister to Kasumi and Hayate, the latter with whom she shares a much closer relationship, since he took over as head of the Mugen Tenshin. Her relationship with the former, her sister, is much more turbulent. They had been friends as children, but were both ignorant of Ayane's origins, until she came of age and was told about her birth by her mother, Ayame. She held a grudge against Kasumi, as she was treated much like a princess, while Ayane was essentially an outcast. She was taken in by Genra, leader of the Hajin mon sect, and trained as a kunoichi.

With much to prove, Ayane set out to show her elders just what a cursed and worthless child was capable of. She reached incredible heights with her training, mastering the Hajin mon style almost completely by the time she turned sixteen. Viewed now as a valuable asset to the clan, under Genra's guidance, she quickly found herself with the authority and status she had desired.

The Tournaments

Raidou soon returned to the village, attacking and critically injuring Hayate. Kasumi, rather than assume duties as the head of the clan, left the village in order to find Raidou and exact revenge. This was against the laws of the village, and she was labeled a runaway, and targeted for death. Having long hated her half-sister, and even more furious at her fleeing the village instead of caring for Hayate, Ayane was glad to accept the death order that was passed down, and she began tracking her.

This lead to several encounters throughout the next couple of years, including five entries into the Dead or Alive Tournaments, which proved to be covers for the DOATEC corporation, behind the sponsorship and funding of the tournament to clone and create the ultimate soldier. This resulted in the death of Genra, who was one of these ultimate weapons, by Ayane's hand. She took over as master of the Hajin mon, and served Hayate directly.

Though her sister is still a runaway, her vengeance was exacted, and the clan has made right many of the wrongs that were done by DOATEC. Reorganized by the new owner, the ninja were satisfied that the evil of the past was gone. Ayane has made amends with her half-sister, though there is still a certain animosity that lingers between the two.

Yuriba

Yuriba is a vacation from her duty, for Ayane. She wasn't about to be lured to yet another island owned by a certain idiot, and decided to visit the more unknown and secluded island of Yuriba, instead. She's apparently left the island, or she's simply staying secluded, to enjoy her time off.
