My sister and I CREATED this character.

Meet Shiru. His name literally translates to "to learn or realize," which is quite ironic, really...he has a tendency to learn things the hard way.

He lived in the late 1800s, in a world where magic was possible, though it followed strict laws. After a massacre took the lives of half the people in his village, he and his younger brother were determined to use magic to seek revenge...though what they planned to do broke the laws they knew so well.

Because of the disasters that resulted, they were exiled from their village and most everywhere else as soon as people found out who they were...but later discovered that to be the least of their troubles.

But, supposedly, he's just a fictional character, so why is this all so important, anyway?

This is his skin. Badly scarred from the accident, also bearing a mysterious mark on his back that has been burned there ever since. Features enhanced muscles, too!
