Powers and Abilities: Mushuro has martial arts skills at an adult level and physical capabilities at slightly superhuman levels thanks to constant training at his grandfather's dojo since the time he could walk. He also has training in stealth and ninjutsu, though he's not very good at either. Thanks to his ninjutsu-based magic he can channel elements into either attacks with his swords or a more powerful attack, though as he is young and inexperienced he needs to shout out the name of his technique and a short incantation before attacking, and in the case of the non-sword based moves, perform complex handsigns to focus his energy. It also requires the necessary elements to be on hand in large enough quantities to be usable. It should be noted that while his costume is materialized by his bell charm, Mushuro modified it from it's original appearance because, due to a training incident, he's under the mistaken belief that pandas are secretly ferocious and dangerous beasts feared by all. 
 
Personality: Though in his civilian form Mushuro is a shy and cowardly crybaby, when he hides behind his costume he takes on the personality of the cool and sometimes hotblooded Magical Ninja Brave Kumataro! That is to say that at least behind the anonymity of his mask, Mushuro feels brave and confident like a hero, but outside of a fight he's a really nervous and confidence-lacking young kid. That said, he has almost no idea what's actually considered 'normal' in any sense, having trained and lived with his grandfather at their martial arts dojo for as long as he can remember. So while he is a nervous crybaby and will flail and panic in normal situations he goes into his ninja persona automatically in situations that are physically threatening, even if he later cries or freaks out about them.
 
Biography: Mushuro lives at his grandfather's dojo where he's been trained almost all his life in the ways of martial arts. He was never told his parents identities and lived as normal a life as was possible for a child whose daily routine consisted of learning as much about fighting and training as possible and regularly being expected to do things in the name of that training that most fully grown people wouldn't be expected to do, let alone small children.
 
Nevertheless, on his ninth birthday his grandfather gave him a small bell charm that used to belong to his mother saying that it would help him overcome his fears and become an even greater martial artist. Little did he know that the bell was actually an artifact of his mother, who was a member of an ancient ninja clan, tasked with protecting the world from evil. If Mushuro rings it two times and claps his hands together, he gains temporary access to his clan's ancient magic and ninjutsu techniques.
 
Now with the rise in evil organizations and monster attacks in the city, Mushuro finally has a reason to use his mother's odd little trinket, even though he knows virtually nothing about his family's past. Still, he's determined to fight for justice and hopefully someday, friendship!
