Shinzo is a researcher who studies strange artifacts, usually ending in some form of magic. He is usually found in the Red District but also might be found scouring the library for more answers. He is known to be a bit of a shut in, as well as a bit of a prissy grouch. Magic is his bread and butter, but more specifically, his expertise with magic artifacts, however despite his knowledge, he truly keeps to his roots of the bone clan, using a single magical tool for combat or to help get chores done, which are called spirit stones.

Shinzo looks clean. His hair his long, but kept tidy in a bun, while he can usually be seen wearing tighter, black jacket with a white tunic underneath. Going into black pants and shoes. His posture is that of a politely mannered individual. Never moving too fast. Despite the look he takes with him outside of his dwellings. Shinzo might be seen wearing breathable clothes inside with glasses, as his research can carry him throughout days without leaving his home.

Combat:
Shinzo sticks to his bread and butter method of combat...summoning anything to fight for him. He cannot summon just anyone as he needs to bind a spirit of the dead to the stone first. Next when he does get into a fight, he need only channel a controlled amount of magic into the stone to release the spirit inside. These spirits depend on the person in the stone to see what equipment comes out of the stone with them. As this requires channeling, it makes Shinzo himself the weakpoint to his strategy. Something as little as breaking focus on the channel will force the spirit back into the stone. This style of combat also requires a steady flow of magic to keep spirits in the fight, so a refined caster is key.

What happens when Shinzo is backed into the wall? He does carry a sword on his person, in case he does break his channeling, but aside from a backup weapon, the sword can be imbued with soul-binding magic, helping Shinzo to acquire more fighters without getting his hands too dirty.

Shinzo was raised to be prim and proper. He disdains messy things and as such will keep himself clean. He is prideful in his intelligence as well as his clever wit. He does deeply care for history and strives to document and research as much as he can.
