Kenshin Himura

Kenshin Himura, also known as Hitokiri Battousai, Himura Battousai, Shinta and Ken-san, is the titular main protagonist from the Wandering Kenshin series.
== Charactah Account ==
Kenshin is a wanderer formerly known as Hitokirri Battoussai, a deadly man-slayer who slaughtered many men in the war before the Meiji Era.
Soft-spoken, serene and humble, Himura Kenshin's usual demeanor suits his effeminate appearance perfectly. Always willing to put others before himself, both in terms of well-being and social standing, Kenshin usually refers to others with the noble honorific of "-dono" while nearly always speaking of himself with the particularly humble pronoun "sessha" and ending his phrases with the formal verb "de gozaru". He carries himself with an air of amicable temperance, politely conversing with the people he encounters and freely giving his meager services to those who need a hand.
Kenshin doesn't hesitate to put himself in the path of harm to shield those around him and often attempts to diffuse contentious situations with soft, calming words and a somewhat clownish personality involving feigned clumsiness and his trademark interjection "oro". These traits lead those unfamiliar with Kenshin to view him as ineffectual or easily exploitable, but more perceptive people become aware in short order that his gift for placatory eloquence and veiled redirection of disagreeable situations suggest a deep wisdom belied by his youthful, unassuming visage.
