Shino (Izuna)

==Summary==
Shino is a main character from Izuna: Legend of the Unemployed Ninja and its sequel, and Izuna's best friend. Like her, she’s a kunoichi who still believes in the values of ninjas despite the evolving times. Raised by Gen-An in a ninja clan alongside Izuna, she learned and developed many skills and techniques with her natural talent, which exceeds Izuna's. Shino appears like a cold beauty, but she's compassionate, helpful and well-mannered, though she tends to not talk about problems she's having, like when she went to look for her long lost younger sister, Shizune, by herself. When she got kicked from her job at Mugen Castle, she followed Izuna and Gen-An, alongside Mitsumoto, to find a place for Gen-An to rest.

Weaknesses: None notable, outside of game mechanics. Talismans cost Spirit Points to use (SP) that Shino has a limit of. Everytime she gets hit, she loses 1 SP. The lower her SP gauge is, the weaker her attacks will be (Those aspects are likely exaggerated for gameplay balance purposes).
