The translated scenes get the story across pretty well but he's a summary of the stage show that builds on it a little more:
In the year 2205, humanity has faced an unknown calamity which has reduced their numbers. A force known as the Historical Revisionist Army sends spirits back in time to try to manipulate history while you, the player, create an army known as the Sword Army to stop them. After becoming successful enough, the Ministry of Time sends special examiners to study your performance by sending you on special missions.
Hizen is one of these special investigators from the government and his assignment is Bunkyuu Tosahan. He helps lead a team through a twisted version of Tosa's past to find out what has caused it to change and go off record. They discover that the source is Sakamoto Ryouma, a former master of Hizen's and another sword name Mutsunokami Yoshiyuki. Sakamoto, grieving from the death of his friends in the future, wished to do things differently to save them and the Historical Revisionist Army granted it. Hizen and the others realize that the timeline is so messed up that it needs to be immediately corrected or it will become an abandoned and doomed timeline. They kill Ryouma and he, along with Hizen's other master, Okada Izo, disappear so the timeline corrects itself. Upon completing the mission successfully, Hizen gives the team a passing grade and is assigned to the citadel to continue observing them.
Personality: Hizen is canonly described as "prickly" and that sums him up pretty well! He's direct, blunt, gets along with others poorly, and he has a short temper. He describes himself as a hollow person who can't feel but the truth is, he feels many things and simply doesn't know how to process them normally (ex: he literally does not know how to cry). He thinks the only way he can be good is by killing and even if he tried to improve, no one would ever believe he was trying to be better. Because of his poor past, he's easily won over by food, drink, and people just treating him decently (even if he reacts to it poorly because he doesn't know how to deal with it).
CRAU: N/A
Powers: ❀ Not-human shenanigans. Stronger than the average human, more endurance, etc. It's not amazingly strong compared to other canons but it's enough for him to basically get thrown around a bit and be okay. ❀ Spirit sense. It's vague in canon but basically because he's a spirit, he can sense other spirits and spirit shenanigans. He might not know what he's sensing and it's easy for him to overlook things so it isn't a perfect ability. ❀ True form. His true form is his sword and his well-being is connected to it. If it's in good condition, he's in good condition. If it's damaged then he's hurt. If it breaks, he dies. ❀ Combat. Not really a power but he's naturally skilled at fighting with a sword. He's an assassin so his speciality is night battles and fighting in closed spaces. ❀ Sakura fubuki. The ability to summon cherry blossoms from thin air when he's in a good mood. That's it. It doesn't do anything but doxx his feelings.
Inventory: ❀ His sword. It's an ordinary sword that is also his true form. It's larger than 1ft though so he won't have it. He's a simple sword boy and doesn't have much, okay.
Likes: + genuine kindness and respect + inspirational types. the type that will give a genuine shounen friendship speech but also back it up with actions. + good cooks + strength + people who are patient and know when to give time and space + intelligence/cleverness........ What traits does your character like in a person?
Dislikes: - traditional types that refuse to change - overly friendly and pushy with beliefs - mistreat and look down on others - laziness - blind optimism
Ideal dates/venues: Good food and drink somewhere private/quiet. It doesn't have to be fancy or expensive (in fact, he prefers it not to be because then he feels self-conscious) but if he can have a good meal and relax around people, he's happiest. When it's all over, he doesn't mind going for a walk, talking, or doing something else. If no one else is around, he's more willing to do affectionate things like hold hands and kiss because he doesn't have to worry about people seeing and teasing him later. He honestly wouldn't mind just sitting with someone, watching the sea or the sky, and just enjoying their company.
Partner: Random!
Farm Style: Forest > Beach > Rural > Mountain but I don't have a strong preference for any of them, to be honest. I'm flexible!!!
