Asada Shino

* GGO LN
* Alicization LN

**Asada Shino** (朝田 詩乃, *Shino Asada*), known as **Sinon** (シノン, *Sinon*) in «Gun Gale Online» (GGO), ALfheim Online (ALO), as well as «Project Alicization», where she had temporarily used the **Solus** (ソルス, *Solus*) account, is the deuteragonist of the Phantom Bullet Arc and one of the main characters in the War of the Underworld sub-arc of the Alicization Arc.

## Background

Having created an avatar called Sinon for Gun Gale Online, Shino became very invested in the game as her way of attempting to overcome her trauma with guns. In September, 2025, Shino triggered a trap while navigating a dungeon alone, which led to her encountering a powerful boss. By sniping it for countless hours from outside its attack range, she was able to obtain the rare PGM Ultima Ratio Hecate II anti-materiel rifle as a reward for defeating the boss.

She is a skilled Virtual Reality game player, who began playing Gun Gale Online based on the suggestion from her friend, Shinkawa Kyouji, in an attempt to overcome her trauma concerning guns. After the events of the Phantom Bullet Arc, she began playing «ALfheim Online» as a Cait Sith archer, capable of hitting targets two hundred meters away with a bow that should only be able to shoot arrows accurately at a maximum distance of one hundred meters.

## Appearance

Similar to both of her VRMMO game avatars, Shino has thin hair tied in small ribbons by the sides of her face, with the back cut short. Unlike her avatars, Shino has dark hair in real life. She also wears a pair of half-rimmed glasses with oval-shaped lenses. Her skin is pale and she has black eyes. She has a black spot on her right hand, left there by gunpowder from the time she fired a gun in real life.

Shino's avatar has thin, pale blue swaying hair that was casually short, but there was a tuft of hair tied up on both sides of her forehead, and indigo colored eyes. Her combat attire consists of a desert-colored military jacket, bulletproof armor of the same color, and combat boots, as well as a white muffler around her neck.

Shino's avatar maintains her blue hair from GGO, yet holds the appearance of a Cait Sith, her chosen race, with blue ears and a matching tail. She wears a green coat with white chest armor, a black choker and a belted quiver across her shoulders.

Shino's avatar as Sun Goddess Solus has water-colored hair and blue eyes. She wears ornate azure armor and a long white skirt.
