Shin could be said to be off balanced. On his own, Shin is an average teenager, he's kind and enjoys video games, junk food, dating and the occasional party and like any kid he can be a bit irresponsible, but he's very intelligent. He loves all kinds of music and can often be found listening to it via headphones when not busy. With the memories of his past life he's gained something else, it's caused him to come off as much older and much more responsible at times, giving very wise advice, but he's conflicted, a part of him wants to accept the memories and the knowledge they bring while another is burdened by them, plagued by nightmares of past wars, and wishes to be a normal kid, he also suffers from guilt over his family's death. It's left him uncertain about what he wants do, but he tries to be hopeful and find balance, find a place in the world.
Armor: enchanted armor that's bonded to his soul. It's a part of him and can instantly form around him whenever needed. Any damage to the armor auto-repairs in 24 hours. Only has these powers when wearing the armor.
Strength: can lift two tons.
Agility: can jump twenty feet.
Endurance: it's very durable, able to take a grenade blast.
Sword: the armor always has a katana, it has the same self repairing and it can cut through up to 6 inches of steel.
Weaknesses:
-Despite the armor protecting him from actual damage it's still a part of him, so he feels any damage to the armor as if it was his flesh.
-Though the armor keeps him alive any damage it sustains converts into non lethal injuries onto Shin. For example, if the armor is destroyed he'll be covered in severe but non lethal bruises.
-The armor is magic, so it's vulnerable to magic draining items or devices. Depending on the strength of the item/device it could lower the abilities the armor grants or cause the armor to disappear.
Combat Skills: thanks to the unlocked memories he's a master with the katana and is very skilled in hand to hand.

Feudal Japan:
-There was a clan of warriors, ninja, samurai, gathered together for one purpose. To keep peace and protect the innocent.
-They were lead by a skilled and wise warrior. Who had two students, brothers named Kenji and Harada.
-Both grew up strong and skilled, with Harada being calm and collected and Kenji being fiery and passionate.
-As they grew into warriors they seemed to balance each other out, proving skilled and tactical together.
-But things began to change as they aged, Kenji calmed and grew wise, while Harada became cruel and power hungry.
-Eventually their master died, Harada being the eldest took over as head of the clan.
-Harada believed peace could best be kept if the clan conquered and controlled everything.

-For a time he hid it, did his best to hide his changed mannerisms.
