History
Killua Zoldyck was born as the middle child of a well-known and merciless family of assassins. He had shown remarkable promise since birth, and was raised to be a ruthless and efficient killer since he was only three years old. Despite all his efforts and accomplishments, Killua had yet to live up to his family's unreasonably high expectations, and they had concluded that he lacked the attitude of a true assassin. This led to Killua's older brother implanting a particular needle in his skull to subliminally modify his character via terror. But it wouldn't stop Killua from becoming sick and tired of murdering; of not being able to have a life of his own. And so, he rebelled and left his family to become a member of the Hunter Association. There, he would meet the strong-willed Gon Freecss, and by joining his adventures, Killua would find a friend that allowed him the chance to experience true fun and true freedom. Killua would even learn of things in his life genuinely worth protecting.
