History
A prince from feudal era Japan, he was the son of an emperor who used an enchanted sword created by the gods to seal away the demon known as Aku. But when Aku was freed and enacted his revenge, the prince was sent to travel the world and undergo a series of training before returning to his ruined homeland to receive his father's sword and end Aku. But before the prince can succeed, Aku creates a time portal that sends the samurai into the hostile and lawless future that Earth has become under Aku's rule. Going by the name of "Jack", the samurai seeks a means to return to his time and end Aku before his reign could have began. But Jack's attempts have been unfruitful for half a century, the pressure of robotic assassins and constant guild-ridden torment making him question if his quest, and life, will ever truly end.

Sword
A katana created by the gods Odin, Ra, and Vishnu from the good within Jack's father. Due to its nature, when used by the ideal user, it can deal great damage against beings of pure evil like Aku. Jack is able to call upon his ancestors to greatly enhance his power. The sword also has a unique trait; it cannot be used by evil to slay the innocent.  However, after Jack allowed his rage to overcome him due to Aku destroying the last time portal and killing three innocent goats Aku mutated, the sword vanished. But after Jack confronted and bested his anger, Odin, Ra, and Vishnu deemed him worthy and created a new sword, this time from the good within Jack.

Feats

 * As a result of 50 years of trying to return to the past, it has made him depressed and plunge deeper into madness
 * Goes out of his way to help others, which sometimes can end up a trap arranged by an assailant
 * Originally unable to use vehicles.
 * Gradually suffer nightmares of the people from his time.
 * Once got turned into a chicken by a very anti-social wizard. Jack then got placed in a series of bloodsports before he was indirectly restored while his owner got cursed by the same wizard.
 * Had a 50-year long record of zero human fatalities until he was hunted by the Daughters of Aku, accidentally killing one of them on the notion that she was an android like would-be assassins before her and her sisters. Jack eventually overcame the emotional scars that came with taking his first life, sparing Ashi's life while still preferring to kill human opponents as a last resort.
 * Despite overcoming impossible odds and his inner evil, his willpower does have its limits and at one point, believing he killed innocent children being mind-controlled by a villain, almost went through with committing suicide
 * Can lash out in rage when frustrated such as when Aku destroyed the last remaining portal and killed innocent rams mutated by the demon
 * Generally doesn't wear any form of armor, only his white kimono and a pair of wooden geta
