Smith was born blind. As he got older, he developed other senses to the point where he began to "see" the world around him without eyes. For a long time he dreamed of seeing the world with his own eyes, and at the age of 15 his dream came true when he managed to improve his eyesight. But the world he saw disappointed him with its cruelty. After Smith tragically lost his beloved during the attack, he promised himself that he would take revenge and cleanse the world of bad people.
