Appearance
Shinja wears his original outfit from Battle Realms. His attire changes depending on his veterancy. On veteran, he would add additional armor. When he's promoted to elite, he will wear a custom Interceptor Javelin from Anthem.

History
"Only strength— and the willingness to use it— can preserve us!"

-...

The leader of the Serpent Clan is by all accounts a coldhearted, at least outwardly, but efficient warrior. He was the captain of Lord Oja's Serpent Guard at the time of Oja's murder, by Pirena when the Storm Clan revolted. And in the years following Oja's death, Shinja rose to take over control of the Serpent Clan.

As both a soldier and a leader, Shinja is known as merely indifferent in temperament. One account of this indifference to life came from one of his ex-bodyguards who, at the time, was part of a group that was sent after a ragtag band of bandits, who became the inadvertent kidnappers of a Serpent daimyo's daughter when one of their heists went wrong. While his group was outnumbered three to one in unfamiliar territory, Shinja never showed any hesitation when confronting the kidnappers, and at the same time, he didn't bask in the confidence of his men's skill. He knew that the bandits were nothing more than a bunch of farmers with no formal weapons training whatsoever, and yet, he also knew that an example had to be made out of them. Without even batting an eye, Shinja issued his men a single command, and within minutes, the entire group of bandits had been cut to ribbons. Shinja himself participated in the slaughter (lest his men lose confidence in his leadership) and showed no pleasure in his action. Nor did he seem to feel any guilt.

As the head leader of the Serpent Clan, Shinja surely rules the clan with his brand of pragmatic justice and tough but fair efficiency. And the few who don't loves Lord Shinja can't deny that he keeps order and has helped preserve the Serpent Clan in difficult times.

In person, Shinja is an undeniable force, charismatic, coldly intelligent, caring to the soldier he commands but willing to make necessary sacrifices, and utterly without fear. No one has ever crossed him and lived to tell of it, beyond a babbled confession in a chamber deep beneath Serpentholm. He considers honor to be a noble, if foolish, concept that should be abandoned when one must defend himself or his people. In all things, he is a realist, and magical attacks have been known to quail and dissipate under his skeptical gaze and indomitable will, to the point that rumors abound of him being a Blank.
