History
Tatsu is a japanese girl who was trained in martial arts by her father, a member of Japanese intelligence who was a friend of Alfred Pennyworth and died during a joint mission. As young woman, Tatsu was the source of conflict between brothers Maseo and Takeo Yamashiro, marrying the former and giving him their son Akio and twin daughters Reiko and Yuki. But Tatsu and her family were forced to leave Japan when Takeo uses his risen status in the Yakuza to make an attempt on Maseo's life. Despite being under the protection of Amanda Walker during their time in Hong Kong, with custody of Oliver Queen, Tatsu lost her children as she and Maseo were given a new mission to infiltrate the League of Shadows were they came to be known as Sarab and Katana. While Sarab became fully committed to Ra's al Ghul's cause, Katana obtains the Soultaker Sword and is forced to use it to kill her husband while faking her death. From that point on, Katana lived a nomadic life while keeping the Soultaker from the League of Assassins, her brother-in-law, and Walker.
