With a dancer's grace, Shiro begins to cross
the room. His red cloak, trimmed in gold billows behind him, a black
lotus flower is embroidered on the back. He is dressed in a tight
fitting black gi tied with a silvery sash at the waist. Tucked within
the sash is his most prized possession, his father's tachi katana;
Thunder-cutter. The red lacquered sheath has kanji symbols etched in
silver and the painted body of a black oriental dragon entwined around
the sheath. Its fiery main is represented by the golden hilt of the
katana and the dragon's head is the handle. Small rubies sparkle from
each eye. The shark fin wrapping around the hilt, gives off the
illusion of scales. Shiro is a lot like his katana. Strong, yet
flexible. Solid and reliable. Beautiful in appearance, but deadly in
application.
Shiro appears calm as he brushes a stray hair from his hard,
angular face; the jade clasp highlights his blue/black hair.
