Shishio
Makoto
Alias:
Shishi-o sama (Lord Shishi-o, by the JG members).
Looks:
I can't say he's a beauty, though this is not his fault. His skin
and flesh were burnt in a point of his life by the hands of the ones
he was working for, and it ruined his outlook permanently to such a
point, that Shishi-o has to be 100% of the time with his body
wrapped in bandages. However, this didn't ruin his penetrant black
eyes, where you can see the great determination of his soul.
Smarts:
Higher than anyone in the series. He's very political-minded and
devious, matching with ingenious and charisma. You possibly won't
find yourself with someone as cunning as Shishi-o in your whole
life.
Personality:
He's the best villian in the RK deparment, IMHO, even surpassing
Enishi. This man is determined to conquer the Japanese islands and
he has the charm, will and interlligence enough to cut it off. Also
he's one of the few bad guys who can even recognize his own errors
and don't blame them on the boogie.
Cooking
- Home economics:
He has been hiring out, but I think he'll handle out himself here if
it's EXTREMELY needed. Otherwise he may just order another one to do
it for him.
Fighting
skills:
Deadly. In the Bakumatsu he was the only one able to openly go and
defy the skills of the Battousai, so he was chosen as his
replacement -- and we know what happened. His most powerful trick is
his "Homura Dama", which combinates his swordsman skills
with the heat of the flames. His only flaw, which proved to be fatal
for him, is the fact of his limited stamina. If he keeps fighting
for more than 15 minutes, he'll end up burning. Literally.
Special
ablilities:
He has somewhat of a... "magnetic" aura amongst some of
his peers, in a way that Kamatari, Yumi and Houji are directly
willing to kill and let themselves be killed for him and his
beliefs. Asides of it, as Jitou said, he has an incredible survival
rant. Pioneer and master of the "how-to-survive-in-the-pyro-flame-for-being-a-menace-and-get-with-it-and-more"
technique.
Competition:
Sadoshima Houji, Kamatari Honjou, Komagata Yumi. Houji admires the
man with a fanatism that borders in the same point as Enishi's, but
of the three, I think he'd be the weakest opposition. However,
Kamatari and Yumi are gonna be much more of a headache: the first
will undoubtly be a continous annoyance to you like he is right now
to Yumi due to his huge crush on "Shishi-o sama" (which
can turn him to a very kawaii teenager whenever he considers the
possibility of gaining his favor); the latter, undoubtly, will do
anything in her power (from in-fighting to sexual prowess) to regain
Shishi-o's intrest. Believe me she has the... uh...
"weapons" and "resources" to do it.
In-Laws:
None known asides the JG, who are gonna be dangerous wheter you ARE
a real danger to them or not. You've been warned yet about Yumi,
Houji and Kamatari; Anji, Hennya and Cho aren't really going to do
something to hurt you, while you don't provoke them; Usui undoubtly
will cheerfully kill you if it serves to his goal; Iwanbo isn't even
likely gonna see you around; and Soujiro will, as I said before in
Yumi's MP, just smile and say "I've figured yet out" (but
dun underestimate him).
Economics:
Unknown. Most likely, he'll manage himself good with his money (he
seems to be a fair amount of savings) and will earn more as he gets
into Yakuza bussinesses and the like. If he asks you to handle them,
however, be careful.
Sex:
Uh... If you don't mind about his burning flesh (Yumi didn't at
least), Shishi-o will be an extraordinary lover, though a very
dominating one. He's clearly a man of strong desires and expect him
to get from you all he sexually wants.
Overall:
Risky in himself. Like all the men of his personality and type, you
may find yourself killed or dominated in every way by him. So,
PLEASE, avoid him if you think you can't keep up with ALL his antics
AND the burning flesh thingy, ne?
