Ronan Sosuke

History
Ronan Sosuke was taken into an Earth temple and raised there before even rememberence. Since he was 10, Ronan learned how to manipulate the earth and sand. He had always had trouble controlling the great mass that were bound but seemed to have great ease using the glittering grains.

By the age of 12 he was already close to reaching the mastery of sand manipulation. The only problem was that his first and only friend at the temple, Koti Tsuchi, had grown a jealousy over his magic. Soon, Ronan and Koti were relentlessly rivaling each other about everything. From Ronan's growing anger for his only friend grew, he seeked help from his master, Sensei Tonimoto. Each day afterwards Ronan was closer to the secret arts his sensei taught him with the lessons of peace. Koti, however, never seeked help and his hatred grew with his power of rock and earth.

On Ronan's 15th birthday, Koti attacked the temple. All that could be seen was the large collection of earth over the temple bounded by the gravity magic he pertained to the anger he released. Ronan reluctantly kept his emotions in check before defeating his enemy in hours of harsh combat. A year afterwards, the Earth Temple was repaired and cleaned of black and brown sand. For that whole year, Ronan Sosuke,  was gone for his journey to fairy tail, in which he knew his rival and past friend would return to defeat him in a great battle.
