Like most, Shouhei is a complex young man, his personality having many facets, and the look in his eyes and the expression upon his face ever shifting. It's often said that the shifting manner of his life style, the watchful eye and oppressive hand of his father, the constant moving from place to place, the constant changing of the peoples passing through, he learned from a very young age that it paid to be able to be flexible. This doesn't necessarily mean that Shouhei is a liar, nor that the way he may be acting towards another is not genuine. Instead if the situation calls for another face, one that is more condusive to those whom he finds himself in the company of, he will adapt to the situation and created a version of his own persona which best fits. Though at his core he is a kind and caring young man.

Shouhei is also very much loyal and dedicated to his family, whether it be immediate, or extended. As he was growing up there was always a strong presence of family, every night at around the same time, there would be a gathering around a grand fire and the elders would tell stories and there would be much laughter and an undeniable feeling of togetherness. Along with it grew a profound respect and attachment to his families culture and traditions, valuing all of the lessons which the elders imparted upon eager ears and open hearts. Complimenting this to a certain extent, Shouhei tends to make many decisions based upon precedence (mainly the Asura family history), whether it be how to interact socially with someone he has just met, or when it comes to the dedication put forth to the task laid before him.

Shouhei also has a great respect and reverence for nature, having traveled through it, beaten back by it, weighed down, uplifted and surrounded by it all his life. This has made him very conscious and astute to the shifting nature and unpredictability of the natural world, but more than anything he has a sense of love and admiration for it. For it's vast expansiveness, almost unending, for it's grace and great complexities. Even when he is training or in battle, he keeps in mind the world around him, making sure that his movements, his techniques, even his thought process take into close account the world which helped to raise and define him.

Shouhei is also a very driven young man, when an goal is set before him, he gives it everything he has to accomplish it. Even when it seems that the odds are against him, or the metaphorical hill that he has to climb is too high, he sets aside the notion of limitations, and moves forward to the best of his abilities. Even at a young age, when his father had done his all to beat down his young son, physically, emotionally and mentally, Shouhei did not allow his fathers efforts to stunt his growth, and instead made it the fuel which drove him even harder.

Shouhei face has very soft features and is handsome to a point but not to the degree that it would call any stand out female attention or otherwise to him. His skin is a light brown color; smooth and even toned and at the same time it holds within it a certain weathered quality due the fact that as a nomad, even from a young age he has lived out in the wilderness, traveling from place to place, exposed to varying temperatures, climates and terrain. His eyes are a soft grayish blue color, a dull palette which is only broken up by small slivers of off white color originating near the pupil and extending but a small length from that, making it practically unnoticeable from a nominal distance. However, despite this lacking color and bright luster, they make up for in an air of strength, pride, and determination which lies almost constantly within them. If eyes are windows to the soul then at times Shouhei have a depth deeper than the trenches of the sea, speaking to his state of mind, whatever direction it may be taking itself, while at other times they are like a calm surface of a pond, unmoving, cool but not cold.

Despite his age, Shouhei's body has been trained and cultivated, almost as if it had been engineered to maximize efficiency and use-ability of every single muscle, tendon, bone and so forth in his body, while a powerful build it is by no means bulky. Instead it is a medium light build, complimented by the same skin tone which rests upon his usually more visible features and a very intricate and complex tattoo adorning his figure. While appearing in several parts of his body, the largest portion of the marking lays upon his chest, starting at his left and right pectoral, spreading up and over his collar, expanding once more about the shoulder blades and finally meeting at the center of his back. Other locations where like designed markings can be found upon him are in the palms and on the backs of both of his hands, upon the underside of his upper arms, and upon his calves and shins. Each of the tattoos is colored predominantly blue, highlighted by whites and grays, with lines defined by a darker shade of blue. Each marking is highly symbolic, the creation of which are unique and highly guarded secret of the Asura family.

The typical attire of a man of the Asura family has a color scheme incorporating grays, blues, and whites, Shouhei's clothing are no exception to this. The top most layer of his typical attire is a short sleeved gray vest, five clasps upon it allowing for it to be worn open or closed. Upon the right and left breast of the vest there is a circular sewn in patter with blue and white thread, displaying the family crest, the very same design is upon the back of the vest lying just below the collar. Underneath the vest is a deep blue colored shirt, sleeves extending just above the elbow, a plain shirt aside from the white crest print upon the back of the shirt. The pants are the same color as the vest and are pretty much plain and similar in design to the a-typical shinobi pants. Tying the ensemble together is a pair of dark blue gloves, an off white scarf, as well as holsters for the shinobi tools which Shouhei uses, even though they are quite few. The fabrics used in the clothing breathe very well yet at the same time are quite durable and can stand to be weathered by the elements, perfect for the life style which Shouhei has become use to living as a Nomad.

N/A

Magen: Sakasa Vijon (Demonic Illusion: Reverse Vision)
Rank: "C" Rank
Skill: Genjutsu
Effect: Switches the way that the eyes send signals.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: If the opponent turns their eyes cross-eyed, then they will be able to see normally. Beyond that, a simple Kai will dispel the effect.
Description: Gathering chakra using handseals, the user then projects this chakra towards the opponent, specifically targeting the part of the brain that deals with sight. Once affected by this technique, the brain, which is constantly receiving signals from the eyes, will reverse the way in which it receives these signals so that what would be seen out of the left eye is seen in the right, and vice versa. As can be imagined, this is a very confusing jutsu, and very difficult to fight against, and as such is commonly used by Genjutsu Specialists in order to allow them to quickly gain an upper edge if combat gets too difficult for them.
Limit: Must know Pattern Perception

Unbalanced Pattern
Rank: "C" Rank
Skill: GenJutsu
Effect: A pattern technique to make one's balance seem off.

Awakened Fears
Rank: "C" Rank
Skill: GenJutsu
Effect: A technique that subjects the target to phantasmal images drawn from its latent or suppressed fears.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: ---
Description: The fears within the target's subconscious mind are transformed into terrifying and frightful images that its conscious mind can visualize. The target experiences a horde of phantasmal images swirling around its body, tearing and clawing at it. Those who undergo such a devastating feel will become shaken up, leaving a taste of un morale to attacks and capability to think.

Brain Shuffler
Rank: C
Skill: Genjutsu
Effect: Shuffles the targets information-processing system, making one attack appear to be something very different. Duration: five rounds
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: Different shuffle sets are not controllable
Description: After finishing the seals, the target is totally immersed in the genjutsu, as well as totally unable to realize that they were affected, as it only shuffles appearances, but all in all still appears real. There are three distinct shuffle sets:
mirror shuffle: the target sees everything in mirror image, an attack from the left actually coming from the right, top actually from bottom, elemental NinJutsu appear opposite of their element.
clutter shuffle: the target sees everything at a completely random setup, much more effective than the mirror shuffle, as an attack from either side could appear to be coming from the bottom or vice versa.
perfect random: the most powerful illusion, in this version a TaiJutsu may not even be so, it could be a ninjutsu, or even a completely different taijutsu. A target trapped in this level of illusion looks like a complete idiot more often than not, guarding from attacks that do not exist.
Limit: Must have Genjutsu specialist to perform clutter or perfect shuffles. Must have the Phantasm Perception.

Explosive Impact Fist - Bakuyaku Shintou Genkotsu
Rank: C
Skill: Taijutsu
Effect: A powerful form of universal Taijutsu techniques.
Special: None
Drawback: Takes a toll on the body especially the limbs
Description: A Powerful form of conventional TaiJutsu forms. The user releases a short-range burst of chakra on impact, this causes a small to large shock-wave that sends opponent back with ever powerful strike, adding in the user’s original strength and durability, a good combination. The drawback to this technique is the recoil from the shockwave, this causes pain in the impact area, fist, foot, knee or elbow. Depending on the users capability the shockwave can range from small, or large, able to send the opponent back 10-15 yards and easily break bones in the opponent, unfortunately this also increases the probability of breaking bones in the user, like knuckles and bones in the foot and arm etc.
Limit: Must be a Taijutsu specialist, must be physically strong and durable

Shouhei was born into the nomadic shinobi clan the Asura, a group of people whose roots are known only through a rich oral history passed down from generation to generation. Never having settled once since the founders of the clan, Eiji and Sumiko fled from the burning remains of their homes, many many years ago, the Asura have no affiliations or alliances to one village over another, or one country over another, choosing only to be a family of the world. Yet despite this, all of the children who have been brought up within the clan received strong teachings in the shinobi arts, equivalent to that of the Academy teachings within the established Shinobi villages; parents taking a larger roll in the childs teachings after such fundamentals have been imparted upon them. And for Shouhei there was no exception to this, it was however, his fathers stern gaze and iron fist which guided his progress through the genjutsu arts as well as the taijutsu arts.

For it was Shouhei who was born under the same moon lit night that the clans founder Eiji was born under, earning him much praise from the elders, even before or at least what his father believed, his only son earned it. It was this jealousy of his son which drove Shouhei's father to continually push him harder and farther, even harder than he had his own two daughters. And while his mother, and his sisters were well aware in the difference in treatment which the child had received since day one, they were in no position to stop it, they had not the power, nor the will to step in. And while Shouhei began to get a sense of their apprehension towards the daily training sessions, he continued to meet the challenges every single day with a smile and an optimism which helped put his mothers heart at ease.

It was however not an easy task to keep up with his fathers training regiment, considering most of the combat training brought tastes of his fathers full physical strength to the table, beating him back time after time, leaving him bruised and bloody upon the soft grass by days end. And while there grew in Shouhei's heart a definite contempt for the man he called father, there was a stronger will to push harder than his father pushed, to live up to the praise which had brought so much of his fathers hatred and jealousy. Even after the days training sessions were through, and the families gatherings around the fire had concluded, Shouhei would often stray away from the main camp so that he might continue to practice late into the night, bathed in the stars and the moonlight.

As the years went on and Shouhei continued to grow, his fathers blows hurt less and less, the overwhelming feeling of his techniques, both taijutsu and genjutsu seemed to be less and less prevalent. And while this did wonders for the young mans confidence and drive to overcome his fathers tyrannical fist, it did nothing to quash his fathers dislike of his son. However as Shouhei's power grew, and his need for his fathers teachings disappeared, it mattered less what his father thought of him, and instead how he could continue to better himself. And no matter what life's trials came into his path, he held within him the hopes of becoming more and more like the ideal, to become closer to the ideal, Eiji Asura.
