His people was exterminated by a stronger group of thugs (probably akin to White Fang or the Branwen Tribe) with him as one of two survivors. He was left for dead with his injured (not fatally, just weakened) friend/sibling only to be the target of a large amount of Grimm in the aftermath. So in desperation before the pair get overwhelmed, the character activates his Semblance for the first time and faints. Ordinarily I'd save this for the character thread, but it's here now, so, tread with caution regarding that backstory. Sole survivors (and your character is close enough) tend to attract issues if not handled with care. Also, if your character is physically injured, he wouldn't have any Aura left to detonate, because Aura shields the body until it expires.

As far as the Semblance is concerned, it looks...all right, but I have a few questions: what happens if the user attacks a friend/inanimate object with his Semblance activated? I assume it just...doesn't work? What if it's a neutral party? What if he's sparring or in a tournament? If the user thinks the target is an enemy but they don't want to hurt him (the reverse of your "Betrayal but I still think you're a friend" scenario) what happens then?

I'll get to work starting a new thread, and I'll edit this line when it's up.
