a wild child that has turned his abundance of energy into one of his strengths over the years as he grew up within the mountains of iwagakure. shinra would be often seen around the village on his own as a child, always finding new nooks and crannies to explore in his free time much to the annoyance of his neighbors. his parents would say that the spirit of adventure was in his blood and he could never quite sit still if he could help it. soon that energy was directed to his studies as he entered the shinobi academy.
as he learned and grew in the ways of the shinobi shinra's innate need to go out and enjoy the wildness (of either the village or the surrounding area) and once he was able to reach the rank of genin he slowly found himself drawn to a certain kind of mission. first it started with going around and scooping up lost pets using his skills as a shinobi and then it slowly grew into him gravitating to hunting down people as he grew through the ranks of shinobi to reach chuunin level. there was something about the thrill of the hunt of various people that really spoke to him, the thrill of chasing them down, the danger of them fighting back, it got the blood pumping. it also sort of made people see him in a different light here and there. of course no one could ignore that he was probably one of the smaller suppliers of fine furs and meats that he managed to loot off of animals that he himself hunted down during his downtime. hunting was just a really fun hobby for him.
still its a bit of a shock to see that a man who enjoys hunting so much that he's willing to take on jobs for it and be such a large man who exudes such glowing optimism. as a person he tries to keep the sunshine above the mountains in a way of speaking as he tries to keep his spirits up as much as possible. he tries to find the silver lining in just about anything in things so that he can not only keep a smile on his face but also try to get a smile on the faces of those around him. its been hard to do in the times they live in right now but that won't ever stop him from trying to bring any sort of breather to anyone and everyone that looks they could use one.
however one should not forget that underneath that almost kitten like exterior is a tiger ready to pounce and claw his way through the troubles thrown at him. along with his optimism the man is very loud, the warmness that he tries to give off comes from the burning passion that dwells within him that could be the source of his boundless energy. that energy is put into everything he does which manifests in a very rough and playful persona of his.
still he wouldn't change himself for the worse, he considers it one of his strengths that he can offer his country and village and he wouldn't change that for the better.
beast-man transformation technique [apprentice]
"-top of the food chain"
as a ryoshi shinra was trained in the ways of his clan's hijutsu that allows him to tap into his inner animal instincts and bring them out in the form of bodily transformations that give him and edge when it comes to close quarters combat. at his level he's able to turn his forearms and legs from the shin down into the limbs of a tiger giving him claws that can shred into human flesh like butter. a perfect compliment to regular taijutsu according to him and gives him a walking maiming machine!
shurikenjutsu [apprentice]
"-a hunter always has a trick up his sleeve"
shinra himself carries only the essentials when it comes to ninja weaponry so while his skills with shuriken and the like are pretty fine tuned he doesn't carry a surplus of them on hand. that being said he does find himself favoring the kunai over a shuriken more for whatever reason and upon further practice it seemed like he was much more accurate with them than he was with shuriken, experimenting with it one day found him throwing actual knives around with ease. its quite an odd habit that he's developed but as long as he can add it to his list of skills who is he to complain?
stealth [apprentice]
"-hiding among the tall grass"
like a cat that is light on its feet shinra himself has been known to sneak up on people by having some light footsteps despite being a near giant even as an adult. he knows that a good hunter must always make sure that they aren't discovered by their prey so the man knows how to hide himself pretty well. be it hiding among a crowd by pretending to be a simple civilian to even using the most basic tricks in the book to his advantage to hide himself in any nook and cranny he can find. its not always perfect but he does what he can in his situation, sometimes hiding away even for a minute can save one from life and death after all.
enhanced smell [apprentice]
"-sniff out the competition"
using his beast-man transformation technique shinra has managed to learn a little trick in that he can turn his nose into that of a tiger's nose in order to increase his range as well as effectiveness of his sense of smell. reaching up to a range of about two miles at his current state he's able to latch onto the scent of thins hes familiar with pretty quickly, not only that but he's able to distinguish different things about his target if he focuses on their scent long enough, like what other smells are attached to them to learn about where they might have been or what they might have eaten before hand. probably not the most useful application of such a skill but it has its moments where it comes in handy with tracking.
fire release [apprentice]
"-burn baby"
burning blood and hot passion have to come from somewhere and that somewhere is shinra's innate affinity with the element of flames. his mastery of it has come well enough that small breaths of flame are almost as easy as breathing. with its destructive power it makes for a great intimidating show of force if he's able to trap anyone within whatever flames he can conjure up as well as keep himself and his allies nice and toasty on occasion.
