Name: Shinra
Age: 24
Gender Female
Appearance: Here
Personality: Shinra is very bubbly in personality despite being around so many gloomy Kagura dancers all day. She enjoys what she does and is very excitable. She is eager to do her work and can be described as a little talkative, but she has a pure heart of gold and tries helping people out as much as she can, inside and outside of rehearsals. She takes her job very seriously, though, even enough to walk around town in her Kagura clothes when she feels she has no time to switch between shows.
Background History: Shinra often tells people that she doesn't remember who she was. All she can really remember is the day her dance teacher found her, and from that day on 'teacher' taught her everything she knew about Kagura dance.
She hated it at first, feeling it was boring and hurt her small arms, but as she grew older and learned the significance behind it, why this woman was breaking her back to teach it to Shinra, she appreciated it more and soon grew a genuine love for the art. Her teacher taught her everything she knew before the woman had passed from heart failure, leaving Shinra alone.
She didn't dwell on it too much, though. While Shinra was sad about the woman dying and morning the loss, she didn't stop Kagura dancing. She actually took over her teacher's studio and ran it, passing on everything she knew about the art and even going as far as to set up performances when she was around fifteen. People were shocked and amazed to see she was doing so well on her own, although she never gave her true age in fear of being thrown into an unloving foster home.
When she felt she had enough of a grasp and a good amount of money, Shinra did hire a close friend, also a former student of her Teacher, to run the studio while Shinra went out to explore a bit more of her homeland. She yearned to be in the spotlight again, dancing on stage and running the show the way she wanted, so when she found a reputable Kagura dance studio, she checked it out and immediately she was recruited to be a part of the shows they would do in their local theater. It was usually a few shows a week, which was perfect for an ever so curious Shinra.
When she wasn't performing, she was looking around the town for anything that would entertain her. The one thing that always sparked a childish feeling from her was going into a local sweet shop and finding all sorts of delicious treats there and waiting to be eaten. She loved watching the candy makers go to work and make all sorts of treats, especially how some of them made candy apples.
Seeing as she didn't have a 'typical' childhood, between shows, Shinra would spoil herself and still have time to clean up and put on a hell of a performance. She didn't it to get famous or be the number one dancer, but because she loved it and wanted to spread that love to those who watched.
Fun Facts:
As mentioned before, Shinra LOVES Candy apples
She has a horrible sweet tooth and sometimes covers her other foods in something sugary. She's surprised she doesn't have diabetes or anything worse.
Her favorite season is winter, which is part of the colour scheme of her outfit. While she loves Kagura, which is usually associated with Spring, she only somewhat 'likes' Spring.
