Shinobu Sano
COMPANION INFORMATION
Hero/Vigilante/Villain alias: None
Player Name:
Aim
Companion Type:
Human, driver
Companion rank:
F
Faceclaim/Series:
My own drawing
Age:
38
Gender:
Female
Appearance / Personality: Shinobu's build has always been similar to Hotarubi Deguchi's: thin, a bit mannish, lean but muscular. The rest of her is pretty different; where Deguchi is pale, she's rather tan, and her hair is a bright-dyed platinum blond color, standing out in a plethora of spikes from the bangs, the back, and even her top-knot. Some liken its appearance to that of a fearsome firebird, while others diminutively say it looks like a pineapple. A coarse, silent woman, she always wears a frown and usually carries either a cigarette or some replacement for one-- she's stopped and restarted smoking off-and-on many times over the course of ten years. Her typical manner of dress is like a professional racer, including close fitting, two-toned driving suits with mild fire retardant properties.
Her most notable accessory is a black eyepatch, making her look like something out of a martial arts movie. Out of habit, she wears her long bangs parted on the wrong side, nearly shadowing her good eye. Beneath the patch, her eye is scarred and unusable; it's been discretely sewn shut. Her remaining functional eye is ordinarily beady and nearly pitch black, although framed with dots of girlish lashes. When she activates her quirk, One Good Eye, the pupil becomes gold and adopts a nearly metallic sheen until it's deactivated.
She tends to stand a long way off from Deguchi or wait in the car... the way she always seems to be alert and watching, and worse, leering at people who get too close to Deguchi, makes people think of her as a hired thug. In truth, her fighting abilities are rather poor, neglected since the Striped Snakes broke up, and she's better suited for driving. She owns a small, rather underutilized driving school just to pay the bills, but usually can be found blowing it off and utilizing her time to stalk Deguchi instead.

ABILITIES
Professional Driving
Type: Specialist
Rank: F
Effect: Shinobu's skill as a driver is honed from dangerous conditions being the get-away lady from her cherished gang days, combined with her much more conscientious and domestic driving style as a teacher. The end result is a style that is expedient but safe, though feels remarkably unsafe... especially with a one-eyed driver! Her specialty is driving family vehicles (or "gang-sized vehicles" as she prefers to call them), but she is fairly talented with most types of vehicles. Truth be told, she's not well suited as a teacher and has no particular talent in that aspect.
One Good Eye (Sight)
Rank: F
Type: Specialist
Effect: Shinobu's eye-sight is enhanced by properties of her now weakened quirk, which she calls "One Good Eye." While active, the pupil goes from black to yellow in color and seems to catch the light almost like metal; it allows her to see more clearly even in night conditions and ups her visual cognition. Once powerful, the effect of the enhancement is now rather minimal; its enhancement was halved, literally, when she lost the use of one eye in a gang fight. Now, it could be said the quirk's main usefulness is as a way to offset her lost eye and still allow her to keep up her driving. With overuse, activating her eye will lead to bad headaches and migraine symptoms.
Automobile Technician
Rank: F
Type: Specialist
Effect: Long experience working with vehicles has given Shinobu a pretty good working knowledge of how to repair them. It's another thing she's pretty good at but couldn't teach anybody else, partially due to her gruff approach to it and partially because relying upon her One Good Eye can help her detect tell-tale signs others might miss.
