Background Info.
History:
Shigure was born in Amegakure, though, by whom, and in what period, is unknown.
The First Great Ninja War
Shigure was still an infant, when the First Great Ninja War began, Amegakure, being not as resourceful as other villages, had the most chances to be crushed. He was scared of losing his parents in the constant attacks of the fierce villages. He did not understand war, he hated bloodshed, and war had enough of it.
As the war advanced, Shigure grew further and further fears, now, fearing that he would die too. Unfortunately, the worst scenario in his head played, and his parents died, during one of Kirigakure's raids around the village. The building crashed over them. Blood. That is all Shigure has seen. And that, the same, is the revenge he planned on exacting on Kirigakure. Though he was still a child, and not ready for the cruelty of the world, especially the ninja one. But he was too blinded by revenge to realize that.
The War Stops, The Samurai still Fights
For few years, Shigure remained in Amegakure. Though his life there had no meaning, and all he could reflect on was his parents' death. Until that fateful meeting...
The war was over, that brightened Shigure's spirit a bit, but the death of his parents was too much of a blow to him. In the several years he spent, he started growing a certain blood thirst, for anyone he did not like. One day, though the war was over, Shigure passed by two, relatively tall men, that were fightning to death. His curiosity was high, and wondering what was the conflict about. The fight did not last more than a mere 10 seconds, in which an armored, tall and muscular man, slipped the head of his foe off his shoulders.
That scene impressed Shigure, and thus, asking for the armored man's tutoring. His name was Emilio(xd), a ferm Samurai. Even though he accepted Shigure as a student, he always remained silent, and barely trained him, when it was utmost needed. Though, Shigure has learnt the basics and most important things in Kenjutsu. And all by the age of 14.
They parted ways, after his training was complete. The last Shigure had heard of him, was that he died, but after many years.
Samurai Arts, The Seven Devils
After advancing in age, until almost 18, Shigure had developed the Samurai Arts. A style where he could freely manipulate any katana/wakizashi/nodachi, his reflexes also being very good, from his training with Emilio(xd). His speed increased greatly, and, in the meantime, he learnt ninjutsu.
He specialized in Lightning, and during his long life, he even had a Lightning Temple, which lasted for a very few years.
On one of his travels, he had discovered a hidden cave, with an interesting pack of swords, they were stabbed into a rock, which said "Shichiakuma", literally "The Seven Devils". The secret of the swords were kept in that cave for centuries, though Shigure soon learnt all of them, and now, he is the one keeping the secret. The Seven Devils were and still are his trump card in battles.
The Immortal
It is yet unknown why Shigure kept a younger form, he is already 108 years old, it is believed his body doesn't age. But even though he never ages, he is as vulnerable to attacks as any other human being, and can normally die of them too.
