Looks Image: (Please see avatar and profile pic above.)
Looks Description: Shiki is said to be almost a perfect copy of his ancient ancestor Meizu. With long shaggy brown hair and deep and merciless black eyes. He has bags under his eyes due to genetics that never seem to go away and his eyes are often bloodshot due to light insomnia problems. His build is of a slightly toned and strong yet skinny exterior. Similar to an ectomorph but as strong as a shinobi and without as much definition. His arms in particular are very strong due to holding heavy gauntlets during missions and training.
His clothing is that of a tactical Kirigakure shinobi, with dark earthy colors and camouflage. He sometimes can be seen wearing a blue or black cloak over the clothing but this depends on the day or the weather. He also is in possession of a gas mask that's only function is to purify air but this also depends on his current mood or the environment. Several shinobi pouches rest on his belt that are grey in color and open with a button snap.
The only other unique feature of his appearance is that he wears his headband with two special "horns" as a tribute to his ancestor.
Personality Description: Shiki is a descendant of the family that sired the Demon Brothers, missing-nin during a long ago period that were subordinates of Momochi, Zabuza. Although his family was eventually pardoned and allowed to return to the Mist, they held onto very barbaric ideals. The first of these being that they are in support that the old days of the Bloody Mist return, Shiki has been brought up being drilled with these morals and as such firmly stands behind them.
He lacks mercy for any shinobi, including himself. If he is to die then he was stupid for letting himself be caught in that situation, he believes that people should not look too brightly to the future but should instead stay in the present, because that's where death lurks. He is slightly paranoid, trusting no one but his superiors and believes everyone could be an enemy. He doesn't make friends easily, and if he does they are more often necessities for survival.
Shiki suffers from slight insomnia and because of this it makes him slightly erratic, although he most often prefers to be silent and analytical in social situations if he is pushed too far by people who are morons it can cause him to lash out verbally, and if driven further, physically.
Shiki is trained in the fighting styles utilized by not only the Demon Brothers but several others of his family lineage, as such he is a strong believer in ritualistic training sessions.
All in all he is a cold young man who believes his sole purpose in life is to serve as a warrior for those who instruct him, a weapon to be pointed at in the direction he is supposed to be unsheathed.

History:
Pre-Academy Arc:
- Spoiler:
- Shiki's parents are both Chunin in the village and had the boy after retiring from barely making it out alive during an A-Rank mission, he was brought up by bitter people who believed that the Bloody Mist should return, his grandparents had even been executed due to this belief. He was taught to always stand behind his ideals, but that he should keep them to himself unless he has to defend them.
His father trained him in Taijutsu and gauntlet fighting from a very young age and gave him a small base before he entered the academy at the age of seven.
Academy Arc:
- Spoiler:
- It was during the academy that his training was finished, he had heavy individualized training paid for by his father so that he could be further instructed on how to be a cold and analytical killer. The academy instructors that taught the boy were all very harsh and deceitful men and women so this was the environment he grew up around. When he was eight, he was given the special chakra paper to determine his affinity and when it was determined to be Water Release his training intensified until he was adept in all the physical shinobi arts and had a basic understanding in Ninjutsu.
Although his graduation did not include being chained up with a fellow classmate, he passed with very good grades and became a Genin at the age of twelve.
Genin Arc:
- Spoiler:
- As a Genin, Shiki was told that he would have to work very hard in order to rank up and at his current rank he wouldn't be as much of a use to the village. This inspired him to work hard for the next three years, continuing to hone his skills under the instructions of a few select shinobi and his father. At the age of fifteen, he was considered a Genin without limitation only restricted by the title he carried. With this knowledge he was able to set out and start taking missions so that he could advance through the ranks until he was a powerful shinobi indeed...
