Isamu Kaneko, known as "Muse," was born into a wealthy and influential family. However, his upbringing was marked by his father's constant mistreatment and favoritism towards his younger brother, Tenki. Isamu's father, Satsujin Kaneko, a notorious hitman with the quirk "Vampire," held nothing but disdain for Isamu, considering him a disappointment for not inheriting his quirk.
Isamu's mother, Jini Kaneko, possessed the quirk "Demon" and became his source of love and support. Her adoration and belief in Isamu's potential nurtured a rebellious streak within him and fueled his desire to break free from his father's shadow.
From a young age, Isamu discovered his affinity for music, finding solace and escapism in its melodies. His mother's encouragement led him to embrace his musical talents, and he acquired his first guitar as a teenager. Music became both a form of expression and a tool for rebellion.
Isamu's band, Echo's of Oblivion, was formed with fellow musicians who shared his passion for music and a desire to challenge societal norms. Their unique sound resonated with the disaffected youth, who saw their music as an anthem of rebellion and defiance.
Embracing his dark side, Isamu adopted the villain name "Muse," drawing inspiration from his ability to manipulate and inspire others through his music. He used his charisma and musical talents to influence others to embrace their darkest desires and join him in acts of villainy.

In battle, he blended his musical abilities with his enhanced physical attributes, using his guitar to channel his quirk and unleash devastating attacks upon his enemies.

Their shared love for music and desire to defy societal expectations drew them closer, and they formed a powerful alliance.
Together, Muse and Hinami orchestrated acts of villainy, targeting symbols of authority and challenging the status quo. Muse's charismatic personality and manipulative nature allowed him to rally their followers and build a devoted following. The band's music became the anthem of their movement, inspiring others to embrace their darkest impulses.

The presence of his brother Tenki within their shared world of villainy added further tension to their relationship.
