Shū (lord)

is the son of a daimyō of an unnamed country near the Land of Fire.

Personality
Shu outwardly seemed to be of a happy disposition, enjoying the food-eating contest which he was watching, however, he was shown to be dissapointed when he was told by Tatewaki that it was time for his lessons in Kendo. During this lesson he was shown to resent his role as a hostage and thus questioning the need to train in swordplay when all he had to do was behave. When answered that fate was unpredictable, he replied that his was unchangeable. He also showed a taste for Ramen.

Appearance
Shu has brown eyes and long light-brown, hair which he kept in a ponytail apart from two bangs which framed his face. When in public Shu wears a small headband consisting of a thin cord of light-purple cloth whose ends connect on Shu's forehead in an object reminiscent of a golden pearl. He also wears a necklace set with a red pearl.

Abilities
While little is shown of his abilities, Shu has recieved instructions in Kendo by Tatewaki, a skilled teacher.
