First Impressions
Age: forged 1532 CE (486 years old as of 2018) by Fujiwara Masazane of the Muramasa school.
1532 was year 5 of the Kyoroku (享禄) era, from 12 October 1528 to 6 October 1532, and year 1 of the Tenbun (天文) era, from 7 October 1532 to 15 December 1555.*
As late summer is a high time for dragonflies, I put his forging date in year 5 of Kyoroku.
Height: 198cm
Weight: 108kg (canon weight unknown - 108kg is about normal BMI for his stats.)
Eye and hair colour: Burgundy hair and amber-yellow eyes.
Distinguishing features: His muscular build, long hair tied in a thin ponytail and sideburns. He carries his spear with him pretty much everywhere.
Wiki information
Visual: He’s a big, imposing-looking wall of a guy. However his expression is usually placid and kind, unless the situation calls for otherwise. In serious situations his focus is apparent in a keen gaze, and he looks downright fierce in battle.
His battle clothes accentuate his muscles, especially his arms and chest, so it’s hard not to notice how strong he looks. Down the left side of his chest three large characters are inscribed on his skin.
His posture is always broad and straight, and he tends to face things squarely.
The spear Tonbokiri is carried by him everywhere.
Aural: As might be expected by his looks, his voice is a mild yet carrying baritone. His tone is usually quite gentle, yet it is a voice well-suited to giving a deep shout of victory on the battlefield.
Olfactory: He is often training or working out, so a smell of sweat is common. However he is diligent about taking good care of not only his physical body but also his armor and clothes, so they don’t carry any unpleasant smell.
Besides that, there is often an undertone of freshly-turned earth and/or horses, as those are his two favoured chores.
Demeanor: While he looks imposing, he is actually quite gentle and kind. Because of his strength, he will handle delicate tasks very consciously. There is an aura of patient calm and steadfastness about him. Those traits can equally become a powerful battle aura of patiently waiting for the right opening to attack and the steadfastness to be the last one standing no matter what.
Medical/Mental: He has a metaphysical body, so it is well above average in many respects, including in health and ability.
Mentally he is quite healthy and grounded. (He doesn’t have nearly the number of traumas (ie destroyed in fire) or hang-ups (ie being a replica) that his fellow Touken Danshi have. His history as a spear was entirely positive.)
