Biography
Past
In the past, Silverman was one of the few Chojin protected from the genocide of all Chojin by The Man who would make Silverman and the other Chojins protected by him immortal and be trained in the art of wrestling. These Chojins who The Man taught would go on to be called the Perfect Origin, the original Perfect Chojin.
However, once the Perfect Origin learned that many Chojin survived the extinction and would repopulate, The Man decided that the surviving Chojin should be left alone, to grow so that the Perfect Origin may see their evolution, however, quickly the strong would dominate the weak, killing anyone they wanted. This resulted in the Perfect Origin going to Earth to genocide any Chojin who was dominating others.
After this point, Silverman agreed that all of the Perfect Origin should hide themselves away in the Chojin Graveyard and only accept truly strong Chojin to be their students. After many years, Goldman, Silverman's older brother would decide to leave the Chojin Graveyard since Goldman believed that the Perfect Origin staying in the Chojin Graveyard would only happen their skills.
At this point, Silverman would follow Goldman in order to convince him to come back. After this failed and Silverman saw Goldman training a faction of Chojin, Silverman would do the same while tricking Goldman into thinking that he felt the same way as Goldman did, however, Silverman was actually forming a group of Chojin so that they may one day suppress Goldman's Chojin faction.
After many years, however, Silverman would begin to believe in Goldman's ideology and actually train his students so that they may become stronger on their own rather than just to beat Goldman's Chojin, this Chojin faction would go on to become the Justice Chojin.
At some point, Silverman would conceive a child who would be an ancestor and foundation of the Kinniku Clan.
Silverman and Goldman would remain mutual allies and be worshipped as Gods of might, however, one day, a child would ask the two who would win in a fight. Both brothers believed that they would win, causing a fight between the two. This fight would be unending, resulting in Justiceman being sent to make the fight end as soon as possible by graning swords at the two brothers which they would use to cut each others' heads off. This didn't kill either brother as their masks were presented in a palace as a symbol of peace.
Kinnikuman
One day Goldman's mask was taken by the Six Devil Knights under Satan's command, or so Silverman thought. As it was revealed, Goldman had made a deal with Satan, gaining a body and becoming Akuma Shogun in exchange for becoming the leader of the Devil Chojin, the faction Goldman had created millions of years ago.
In the end, Akuma Shogun was defeated by Kinnikuman and since Goldman had become remorseful from his loss, the Gold Mask and Silver Mask would fuse into one, healing all of the damage that Akuma Shogun had done and being put on display again.
Kinnikuman (2011)
Once both Goldman and Silverman had figured out that the Perfect Origin would attack the Justice and Devil Chojin, the two brothers agreed to defuse and Silverman would grant Goldman enough power to form a body, becoming Akuma Shogun again while Silverman stayed as a mask, being granted enough power to make a body for only one fight.
Silverman would make his body during Psychoman's fight against Brocken Jr., a Justice Chojin who would have been killed if Silverman didn't step in. Silverman would ask Psychoman to spare Brocken Jr. and would take him to be healed.
Then Silverman would state his intentions of turning against the Perfect Origin and everything they stood for, having to fight against Psychoman in order to prove how their ideology and their usage of Magnet Power had corrupted them.
In the end, Silverman won the fight against Psychoman with his skills, using the Arrogant Spark, an immensely powerful technique that is designed to kill the opponent, to win the match, horrifying all of the onlookers including Kinnikuman. Silverman would then go onto talk about how he invented the Arrogant Spark as a tool for killing but would eventually make the Muscle Spark to be used by normal Chojin since it was far less lethal.
Psychoman managed to survive the Arrogant Spark because Silverman had intentionally slammed Psychoman's head into a small hole, making the attack deal less damage. At this point, Silverman would take the dumbbell from Psychoman and the one that Terryman received from Justiceman and give them to Akuma Shogun to put into the Dial which would erase every member of the Perfect Origin, Silverman included.
After all the dumbbells were inserted, none of the Perfect Origin were killed aside from Psychoman who had altered the device so that only he would be killed. Once Psychoman's body had vanished, Silverman's body would begin to vanish as well, he had used all of the power that he could use and he would be reduced back to just the Silver Mask which would teleport back to the palace where it was placed originally.
