name;; Shino
age;; 23
country;; Formerly Air
rank;; Master-equivelant (Dispossessed)
gender;; M
picture;;
appearance;; Shino generally wears an oddly styled coat with a hood up. His pale blue eyes are generally black glasses. His hair is deep black and cropped short. He wears a metal guard on his forehead. The symbol on it, , simply means wind. Shino's build is long and lean; while he stands at nearl six feet, he seems to weigh only 120 lbs. His facial and bodily features are soft and rounded, rather than sharp and angular.
personality;; Shino comes across as being cold to others. He has a strange fascination with bugs; he spends his free time capturing and studying insects and often uses them as analogies during conversation.. Shino's merciless tendencies, in regards to opponents as well as his attachment to insects, have caused other characters to label him as "creepy". He usually disdains company, though this does not applie to those he decides he likes; thus far, few have warranted such. Nevertheless, Shino cares deeply for his commrades, being acutely aware of their inner workings and always regretting when he is unable to help them.
past;; Shino was born in the Northern Air Temple. He grew up as any other Air Nomad child; playing games, chasing lemurs, learning to Bend. Unlike most children, though, Shino's games often took a violent turn. His short temper often proved to be his bane, much like his creativity was his boon. Many of his ideas, though, were seen as dangerous. Particularly the new technique he developed, the Air Cutter; air is focused into an extremely tight area under high pressure and developes a sharp cutting edge. This was against the edicts of the peaceful Air Nomads. Due to this, he was not allowed to become a master. In a fit of rage, he killed the person who informed him of this with his Air Cutter and was subsequantly dispossessed and banished from the Air Temples. Since that day he has begun calling himself a "Windbender" rather than an Airbender. When asked why he would respond, "The air stays in one place and grows stagnant, while the wind is ever travelling, ever moving, at home anywhere and everywhere, at peace nowhere. As I am."
example of rp;; A gust of wind from the east ripped across the low hills shere Shino stood. The wind was unseasonably warm, and carried the smell of ash. It stung his eyes with the embers it carried. Something was burning. Shino launched the beetle he was studying into the air and turned to the east. He stood on a small rise overlooking the burning village. It was as he thought; a group of rebels was burning the village because it supplied food to a nearby town of Earthbenders. He snorted; idiots. He zoomed down the hill with the wind at his back. One of the raiders had a young woman strung from a rafter, the remains of her home, like as not. Two more were standing nearby, urging him on as he ripped her shirt off. She cried out and he slapped her across the face. Four more were a few yards away, throwing dice to decide who gets the biggest shar of loot. Seven? That isnt enough to destroy a village, there must be at least twenty more. It isnt rebellion style to rape a survivor and pillage her belongings. Must be deserters.... He smiled. Perfect. The woman began sobbing quietly as the man leared up at her. He squeezed her breast painfully and she cried out. He chuckled softly. "Yeah, thats what I like to hear. Come on, baby. One way or another, I'm gonna have you screaming in the hour." The two behind him grew anxious. "Come on, hurry up!" "Yeah, we want our turn!" The last to speak had a rock slam into his skull, thrown by one of the peeople rolling dice. "Shut up, I'm tryin' to concentrate!" The rapist scoffed and turned back to the woman. A gust of wind ripped through as he opened his mouth to speak. His facial feature slowly shifted from brutal triumph to confusion. Slowly, as if in water, his head rolled free from his shoulders. The woman screamed as the men grabbed for weapons. Three weilded halberds, two spears and one a sword. As Shino approached on an Air Scooter he formed a ball of air and hurled it at the one with the sword. The spearmen threw their weapons and he blasted a current of air at them, causing the missiles to turn and strike the throwers. The men with halberds rushed him. With a few movements he hurled his air cutters at killed two.; the third dropped to the ground. Shino leaped into the air and caused his Air Scooter to come down on the man's skull, resulting in a satisfyingly wet crunch. He hopped off his Scooter and began approaching the swordsman. He backed away, fear and hate mingling on his face. "You benders think you can control us? Cause of what you can do?" Shino shook his head. "Thats never been the case." "Ha! One day the normal people are gonna be in control!" "And that justifies murder, arson and rape?" Before the man could respond Shino killed him. He turned to the woman who began to panik as he approached. He picked up a discarded halberd and she turned her head, only to gasp as she fell to the ground. She opened she stood up and looked around so she could thank him, but he was no where to be found. A cool wind ripped through as she began sobbing once more.
