When Shiryu was young, his family died in a fire and he does not know what happened. He was raised in his village by a nice older couple and played with the children there. He was always drawn to the water and spent lots of time in the river in his village. He was a strange boy and the kids would often pick on him. One day the mark of a water dragon appeared on his arm and it hurt and he didn't know what it was. In his panic and not knowing how to control the powers within himself, he went into a rage and the water from the river swept the kids away and some of them did not make it. He left the village after that and began his journey that would lead him to others like himself. The first person he ever met that was like him, was Loki, who had the power of fire and who had a little fox familiar. Shiryu fell in love with Loki (being that he was the first person to get him). Later Shiryu met a young Yukiko, who had powers of ice & snow and he took Yukiko under his wing and became an older brother figure in Yukiko's life. Eventually Shiryu discovers that a ghost named Grimoire can communicate with him, and only him, and Grimoire knows the secrets to Shiryu's past.
