Name: Shinobu, Aisaka
(
Appearance)
Gender: Female
Age: 10
Personality: Shinobu shows all of the qualities that would make her an excellent inheritor of the Aisaka family's will, if only she were not so incompetent. She is a calculating and strategic-minded girl for her age, and skilled at presenting a casual, realistic appearance to the world. She excels at concealing her intentions, and her motives are largely invisible even to those closest to her.
Her goal in life is, outwardly, to benefit her family through the accomplishment of successfully participating in the Holy Grail War. Truthfully, she just wants a chance to get away from her annoying family members. Her eventual strategy is to break away from her clan and make a living for herself as a modern ninja.
Her hobbies include reading manga, playing video games and meditating in the forest.
She loves curry.
Biography: Shinobu was raised primarily by her parents and the clan head of the Aisaka Family, in their secluded mansion located somewhere close to Fuyuki. Her upbringing was strict, and harsh, but on the whole it had little effect on her overall outlook. As much as her family tried to convince her she was a failure, she has done everything she can to disprove them, to some middling success.
Her parents were against her coming to participate in the Grail War, saying it was beneath her. She proceeded to remind them that, much like she herself, they were all failures. So it couldn't hurt. They got mad at her for this, but in the end, there wasn't really anything they could do to stop her.
So she left.
Family History: The Aisakas were once skillful practitioners of Ninjutsu in their time. They have declined somewhat since their glory days, however, and nowadays put more of an emphasis on Martial Arts than Magecraft. They have lost sight of their original goal, and are now worse than failures when it comes to their secret arts. Despite boasting an impressive seven generations of Magi, they have accomplished what other families could have accomplished in three.

Magus StudiesKnowledge of everything necessary to becoming a Magi in the first place. Implies an understanding of the functionality of Mana, the mindset of a Magus, and the qualities of Magic Circuits. Can identify many common forms of Magecraft, such as Bounded Fields and Mystic Eyes. Applies to both Western and Eastern spheres.
*
Aisaka Magic CrestA crest containing the only existing records of the life's struggle of the Aisaka clan. Ordinary Magecraft would be virtually impossible to utilize for Shinobu were it not for the crest's assistance. Using its help, she is able to construct a competent Bounded Field purposed for concealment, strengthen her body to a minor degree, obtain and manage a magical familiar, and manipulate ordinary human's memories to the extent necessary for a magi. A vast majority of the Crest's capabilities remain completely unused, due to Shinobu's poor compatibility.
*
DisappearanceAn advanced concealment spell comprised of several different inter-woven concealment spells, which can be substituted or toggled based on the need of the situation. Foremost is the function of disguising one's basic physical imprints on the world, erasing the user from sight, removing traces of their and their attached object's scents, muting any sounds created by their body or movements, and easing the step so as to minimize the imprint of one's foot.

Martial ArtsThe rudimentary skills essential to eventually mastering the secret Aisaka Family Martial Arts. However, as she has yet to progress to anything beyond physical and mental training, Shinobu has yet to learn the slightest inkling of an actual technique. She more or less just knows the basics of controlled breathing and meditation that comes with this particular school of martial arts.
Her parents say that, no matter how much she trains, she will probably never be able to become a true master. So there's no real point in learning beyond the basics. This annoys her, so she has become very good at this basics. They still think she's bad, though.
*
NinjutsuCovers all traditional, mundane techniques employed by the common image of a female Ninja. Due to special training techniques, Shinobu has been able to attain a higher-than-normal mastery of these techniques, but she's still rather amateurish when put beside other practitioners of her craft. Comparable to a "little girl pretending she's a ninja".
Her abilities in mundane concealment are legitimately good, though. Don't challenge her to hide-and-seek. You'll lose.
*
Elementary School EducationThe knowledge acquired through casual exposure to the Japanese elementary school curriculum. Includes pop culture knowledge learned second-hand through one's peers, and the basic skills required to live.
