## Appearance:

Eijiro is an average height boy with messy, red, shoulder length hair that covers his eyes.

He is rather baby faced, having a short, round face with rounder cheeks than the rest of his body. He is underweight for his size, and his hands and feet appear proportionally too large for his body.

Like his brothers, he has freckles over his entire body, and his teeth are sharp, like his father's.

When he first arrived in Morioh, Eijiro dressed more formally in slacks, a button up shirt, and a sweater cardigan. However, he gradually switched to wearing more casual clothes, and, eventually, settled on an oversized, orange, hooded sweatshirt with black skulls on each sleeve, cargo shorts, and various plain t-shirts.

His school uniform is an unmodified Izumi-ku boy's uniform consisting of a navy blue blazer, white button up shirt, red tie, and grey slacks.

Eijiro used to wear a grey face mask, but has since stopped.

He generally carries a small backpack filled with day-to-day supplies when not at school.

He speaks with a severe stutter.

## Personality

Eijiro is mostly soft spoken, but not truly introverted. His demeanor is very serious by default, and he often claims that he just doesn't have much to say when his quietness is brought into question. He is known for entering conversations without the other party(ies) being aware that he was listening or even in the room.

Despite this, he is generally friendly and becomes aquatinted with people very easily.

He doesn't often get pulled into the stunts of his friends and the people around him, generally preferring to make his own, much worse, problems to deal with.

Eijiro is notably stubborn even compared to Akira. However, he's not as quick to anger or resort to violence/threats of violence, and is generally the most emotionally stable and consistent of the three brothers.

He has a high threshold for stress, but a poor response when it gets too high. His stress response is to pull his hair, and there has been one notable occasion where this has caused him to pull chunks out.

Eijiro has persistent problems with falling into black and white thinking based on his experiences which have stemmed from his home life growing up. He often defaults to the assumption that certain things and groups are all bad with exceptions instead of looking at certain individual cases as bad and not reflective of the whole group.

Eijiro has a great deal of faith and sense of duty which has proven to be both good and bad. He is a devout Catholic (occasionally to a fault), and this is largely the lens he views his problems through.

Although not a brimstone and fire type, he does tend to take an approach to problems less fitting of contemporary Catholic doctrine and more in line with "crusading" behavior. This likely stems from the hero complex he developed from his stand and past trauma.

Eijiro does feel the need to shoulder the burden of what Described Eternity reveals to him alone. He is always reluctant to accept help and often inserts himself in situations he had no business being in because he either was alerted to goings on from it or because he wasn't and believes he should help, as this is now a failing on his part. He has a great need to prevent others getting hurt, but this is almost always accomplished at great harm to himself.

He believes others generally view him in a positive light, and is rarely bothered by people who don't.

## Abilities

### Described Eternity:

Described Eternity is a stand that takes the form of an Ouija board without letters and a planchette. It allows Eijiro to separate his ghost from his body at will although it is occasionally involuntary. It has a secondary ability where it allows Eijiro to sense "the amount of blood someone has on their hands" as well as general soul sensing. This is where he derives the majority of his information about the town from.

His control over his stand is tenuous at best. He has passed out and gotten high fevers from using his stand for prolonged periods.

###### Described Eternity and Ghost Girl Alley:

Eijiro has a very strenuous "relationship" with the alley and the entity that dwells inside it. He has harnessed the alley for his own purposes before where he (presumably with his stand) physically moved the hell hands closer in order to use them against Naoaki.

It's implied he's able to "touch" the hell hands (re: pulling them forwards) when extremely distressed. He has made no further attempts to interact with it through his stand although he is known to lead people down the alley when being chased, counting on them being unable to leave without specific instructions as leverage to get himself out of the situation.

### Writing and drawing:

Eijiro is notably gifted at creative writing and drawing and is often described as carrying various notebooks or scribbling in one of them. His typically darker subject matter is frowned upon by his teachers.

### Bat:

Due to his stand lacking combat abilities, Eijiro's weapon of choice is a metal baseball bat.
