Shin has the appearance of a young boy despite his age, though his topaz eyes have been noted on several occasions to hold wisdom well beyond his years; which is only further exemplified by his mature attitude and surprisingly meaningful words. Despite his young age, he has quite a lean-built physique and is surprisingly muscular for his young age, and is more powerful than his small frame would otherwise suggest, easily allowing him to take his foes by surprise in battle situations. During everyday interactions, he is mostly seen with a serious scowl that has been described as frosty and intimidating. However when working in the apothecary hes scowl are replaced with a slight smile

Shin´s clothes consists of a white, long necked shirt with class, delicate embroidery is the form of wings over the bottom half of the shirt. He wears a pair of simple pants and shiny brown leather shoes however his lower body is covered and hidden by his large, kimono like robes in the colors gold and purple that reaches down to the ground. It has long flowing sleeves and much like he´s shirt has embroideries on them. The inside of the kimono have many small pockets.


History: Shin had a happy childhood despite the fact that his parents died shortly after he was born, he grew up with his grandfather, a wise old man who was the herbalist/apothecary and a bit of a doctor in the small village they lived in. Even as a little shin was very curious and almost as soon as he was old enough and had learned how to talk , he began bombarding his grandfather with questions. questions which his grandfather with a extreme calm and a smile answered.

Shin's grandfather started teaching him and teach him about herbs and the medicinal knowledge that been passed down through generation when shin was very young. But he also taught shin in other things like reading and writing and also the art of the staff (bojutsu) and martial arts. It was after one of thoose sparring pass that shins life changed and he became unable to swim. Exhausted and a bit hungry and walked over to a part of the garden where they keept a grove of trees carrying many diffrent fruits he was reaching out for a orange when a diffrent fruit caught his attention a beautiful silver pear, which was covered in swirls. Looking as if it was made from a precious, lustrous white metal, like silver or chrome, curious thinking this new fruit was something his grandfather had grown and reached out for it. hungry as he was he dident pay much attention to the consequences it could get and simply split the fruit in half and quickly ate it. after chewing swallowing both pieces he was almost about to vomit and decided to never eat fruits looking like that again and went in to his grandfather. Later that night when he was sleeping he had a bad dream. He heard voices whispering to him and plants and trees chasing him, what he dident know was that it was his fruits power and amplified by his fears it caused the tree outside his open window to grow reaching out with a branch for him as to protect him. As the branch touched his leg however he woke up screaming. a few minutes later his grandfather came into the room seeing the tree reaching for shin and shins fear, putting things together he tried to calm shin down and then asked if he had ate something weird today. On the brink to tears shin told him about the fruit he had eaten. Shins grandfather continued to calm the boy and as he did the tree begun to retract to its natural shape. Shins grandfather then asked shin to prepare some tea while he went to his room getting something Shin did as his grandfather wished and prepared the tea and waited for his grandpa to come back, when he did he was wearing a book it had no title and its grey cover was worn out, he put the book down infront of shin and asked him to open it as he begun to explain what it was, It was a book containing information about the fruit he had just eaten written by shins father.

Shin soon noticed that the book wasent just a guide over the devil fruit abilities it was also a diary. Now besides his lessons with his grandfather he also spent a part of the day reading his fathers diary and practicing his devil fruit ability.  Now at the age of 21 his grandfather said his training was complete but also reminded him that there was always room for improvment and he should aim to keep studying and learn new things shin agreed and set out to explore the world. As a parting gift shins grandfather gave him a bo staff that been passed down for generations in their family. After he had left the island he settled at the start of the grandline and opened a small clinic.

3 year timeskip
His clinic got attacked one day and he barley manged to defeat the culprits and turn them over to the marines, it was at that point that he realized that while he had great control over his powers he lacked offensive techniques,  He closed the clinic and after talkin to his chief in the marines, he begun to travel around the seas exploring various plant life. Praticing with his devil fruit to gain more offensive capabilities. and now after three years hes back his clinic is for the moment however still closed and only used by him as his home.

Personality: He is rather quiet personality-wise, rarely speaking unless spoken to and even then he only speaks a few words at any given time. He finds quietness a more appealing trait and prefers others to be quiet in his presence; something thoose around him find odd and somewhat unsettling as they can never quiet determine his innermost thoughts, nor his intentions until after he makes them clear. His quietness, though, allows him to fade into the background where he can effectively analyze his opponents mannerisms and interactions; being fit to determine their abilities and such from that alone.  He does not like fighting much. However, when he is forced to fight, he shows special interest in protecting thoose close to him like his family and friends

plant creation: Shin can generate plants, including vines, moss, fungi, and parts of the plants, such as leaves, seeds, fruits and flowers, whether by drawing them from already existing plants, or by manifesting them. This also have a sub category in plant controlling allowing him to control already existing plant life.

Plant mutation: Allows him to rearrange and even combine the dna structure of plants granting them abilities and effects they normally would not have. Is on a pretty basic level now and so far its vines and pop greens he can mutate when it comes to *combat plants* so to speak

Toxin,spores/pheremones: Allows him to create and control mentioned substances for various effects. On a more advanced level even after refining them he can control them hes not quite there yet though

here's his most used abilities in this category.
Vines: the most used of his abilities and he have a masterful over these,
Pop Greens: beside the vines this is his most used abilities,  he does not only have access to the normal pop greens but also grown a few of his own.
Fungus: usually filled with various toxins or spores mostly sleeping or paralyzing ones. These are mostly used for traps and are to be triggered when someone steps on them though shin can detonate them when he wants.

Devil fruit gears

1st gear fertilization : this gear allows him to break down the earth/plants around him turning it into basic chemical filled soil to fertilize his plants it makes it easier on him to use other plant based abiliites and the soil is also something required for him to make lily carnation seeds and stomach barons.

2nd gear symbiosis: This gear is most effectivly used on island that are not winter or desert ones.  Shin grows roots that rather quickly expands to a 50 meter area around him after that it slows down. This allows him to suck moisture and nutritions from the ground to rejuvenate himself, Allows him to more easily manipulate the plant life around him and growing plants within the diameter.
Sub gear:  On top of this it allows him to through vibrations in the ground from the roots he can within a 20 meter diameter with perfect accuracy sense where and how many people that are around him thanks to vibrations in the ground. and the sillouette of the people thanks echolocation, wich allows him to tell what race they are and generally what weapons they have, ofc he cant tell if they have devil fruits and the like.  the further out this goes the weaker it becomes and at the max range (let say 50 meter) he will only be able to sense someone is coming and the approximate number of people whos coming

3rd Gear: Hexagonal shards: the shards are made from the saijo o wazamo tree seeds(ill call them SoW) the hexagonals are around 4inches The hexagons can be controlled and arranged into various shapes allowing him to cover others. he can produce around 600 of theese. a layer of them cover his body as they seem to grow from it as the rest floats around him.

Weapons/Items: Weapons and items can be found Here.

Character Flaws:

Goals: his goal is to follow in both his fathers and his grandfathers footsteps becoming a world famous herbalist/apothecary and a admiral or higher within the marines.
Another goal of his is to learn to grow his mutated plants without the use of his powers. making them more commonly avalible to the public masses.
