## Physical Traits

Shizo Hizumi is an intimidating character with a mysterious aura about him. Shizo has short black and white hair which partially covers his pale face. His eyes are a deep shade of crimson red, outlined with sharp black eyeliner. He wears a white buttoned shirt with the chest partially open, and black choker around his neck. His pants are black with thin white vertical stripes, and are cuffed at the bottoms. A wallet chain hangs from his belt, which has a small pocket watch attached to it. He wears a few black rings around his fingers, as well as a silver gothic claw ring on his right index finger.

## Personal Life

Shizo was born into a wealthy family, as his parents were both successful fashion designers who owned their own company. As his parents were busy with work most of the time, Shizo learned to care for himself at a young age. When his younger siblings (Haruto, Nara, and Mei) were born, Shizo's parents were at the height of their success and did not spend much time at home to care for the children. This responsibility was passed on to Shizo, who was forced to transfer to online schooling in order to be at home to look after his siblings. The few times Shizo's parents were home, their time was mostly spent arguing among themselves. The arguing would deeply upset Shizo's younger siblings, and he would have trouble getting them to calm down. He eventually discovered hypnotism, and how it could help with many of the struggles Shizo's siblings were facing. Shizo started using hypnotism to get his siblings to sleep, and it worked perfectly. He shared his experience on the internet, and eventually began getting people asking Shizo to help them with his hypnotism.

After one session of hypnotism went very wrong for the person receiving the treatment, Shizo vowed never to use hypnotism for things other than helping his siblings sleep at night. He began rejecting every person who asked him for help, as to not let another tragedy happen again.

## Personality

Shizo comes across as cold and intimidating on the outside, but this is only the result of setting his own troubles aside in order to be strong for his siblings at home. He speaks quite directly, and tends to be the leader when working in a group. Though he comes across as intimidating and stone faced, he deeply cares for those close to him, and will do whatever it takes to assure their safety. Though the concern he has for others is often expressed rather sternly - and sometimes comes across as bossy - he is only trying to help them. He has his guard up all the time, and is not easily shaken by his or others' emotions, and is also able to remain calm in stressful situations.
