Jinsoku Neko, often called by his nickname; "Jin", is a reappearing character in the Oblivia franchise and is the older twin brother of Beru Neko. He is a main party character in Oblivia - Kurai no Ame.

## Appearance

Jin is a late teenage Nekoid boy with a usually stern or moody facade. He has spiky, styled brown hair with black cat ears, a brown cat tail with a black tip and heterochromia iridum; a blue left eye and green right eye. Jin wears a gold cow bell choker with a black collar and a black stylized V-neck shirt with a yellow laced top. Jin wears a tan hoodie half zipped open with tan-ish furred cuffs and furred rims on the hood. He wears a
fastened brown belt around his waist with a gold buckle. Jin has black jeans with yellow laced trimmings on the pockets and a J shaped trim on the fly. On his left leg is another brown belt with a gold buckle. Jin wears shoes similar to that of tan *Timberlands*.

## Trivia

* Jin is the only other male character in the main cast of Oblivia - Kurai no Ame aside from Ame himself.
* Jin is left handed in contrast to Beru's right handedness.
* Though Beru and Jin are twins they have reversed heterochromia iridum.
* Additionally, though Beru and Jin are cats they wear cowbells on their collars instead.
* The idea of having twins with a yellow-ish based color palette may come from Vocaloid twins: Rin and Len.
* Jin's Earth Gauntlet: **Huang Long** is named after the Chinese mythological Yellow Dragon which is the cosmic emperor of the Earth, making ties with Jin's power over **Terra Magia** and his somewhat yellow color scheme.
* The symbol written on **Huang Long** (土) is Chinese for "earth" or "soil", referencing once again the weapon's power over earth magic.
* Both Jin's Ars Arms: **Yang** and Ars Armor: **White Grudge** is based on the concept of Yin and Yang. Jin wears the positive side of the duo likely due to Jin usually having a rough and hardy personality, but he suddenly begins to cope with the reality of a fleeting life and living his to the fullest after the death of a comrade and lover during the armor and weapon's debut.
