Shinzo was a tall, well-armored, blocky Warframe. He his armor pieces were mostly shade of blue, with a glowing chest piece that powered him. His helmet, his most remarkable feature, was narrow in nature with two rings that rose from the top of his head, one from the centre and another near the back; the visor was triangular that covered the front of his head. Shinzo's only non-solid garment was a type of kusazuri.
Unlike other Warframe, Shinzo's body appeared more blocky, full, and less-humanoid in nature. His armor was much akin to a Golden Age knight or paladin. Usually on his person, was his Nikana Prime, a type of advanced katana.
==Personality==
Shinzo was brave, stoic, wise, and powerful. As he was Apothisimilated upon entering The Tower, he showed merged traits from both original Anima, creating a new persona. Despite this, Shinzo's case was somewhat rare in that both personality cases would sometimes struggle with each other, creating a conflicted schism within Shinzo. This caused Shinzo to appear aloof, standoffish, and unresponsive to being open — especially to those he did not know.
When Shinzo was comfortable with close friends, he would often offer wise advice; he was notorious for sylvan-esque parables and metaphors. He could also be incredibly protective, always putting himself in danger before others, and frequently offering to go first in dangerous situations. During complex social and political discord, Shinzo was also able to support others' points and offer solutions and answers common to samurai justice and honour.
Shinzo was powerful. Able to intimidate adversaries and even make those above him weary of his demeanour and presence. Because of this however, Shinzo would often find trouble in being unapproachable, especially to those who were skittish or shy. Shinzo was a fighter for justice, and always invoked action over words.
Under the surface, Shinzo's cold exterior hid a mixture of conflicting confusion, anger, and sometimes even sadness. When Shinzo or his friends were harmed and he was unable to do anything, he would often resort to quiet meditated thoughts, which would linger even when said harm would resolve or pass. Though he didn't particularly keep grudges, Shinzo was noted to keep his own shortcomings with him at all times in order to push himself to better the lives of those around him. Be it through battle or through wisdom.
Because of Shinzo's original Dax Warrior personality, he was especially wise, astute, and insightful. He was easily able to identify core problems and root sources, and was an excellent and patient teacher. Though more often than not, his words would not make sense to his contemporaries until much later. Shinzo was also an adept swordsman, and was able to pass his skill through his teaching and diligence.
Despite being a heroic and stoic figure, Shinzo was well-known for his comical side. He was both comically serious, and somewhat of a prankster. Whenever there was a nearby water source, he would take it on himself to freeze it, much to his teammates and friends' dismay. He would often get into subtle antics in order to get a rise or reaction, and was able to create joy and laugher when times were harsh.
