Little is known about this man, even his name. Shinku Tamashi (pronounced SHIN-koo ta-ma-SHEE) is simply a term that describes him; crimson eyes that seemingly pierce one's soul. Survivors from his blade get close enough to see his eyes which are crimson in color. Anything known about this man is only from rumor.

Romantic Interests

Lhea Korolon

Drawn by her friendly nature, Lhea Korolon became someone Shinku could confide in. After witnessing her kind smile, however, it was evident that she would become so much more despite Shinku's denials. This young female miqo'te drew in Shinku with her ability to look beyond his violent past and nature. After several days Shinku felt a feeling he could no longer keep to himself. On the docks of Costa del Sol he admitted his deep love for Lhea. Despite her own history, Lhea admitted that she could learn to trust Shinku, she just needs time. Shinku will do what it takes and wait as long as he needs to in order to earn her trust and gain her love.

Rumors

Common Rumors

• “Have you seen his eyes? They are crimson as blood…”

• “In the Far East they call him Shinku Tamashi. I wonder if it’s because of his eyes?”

• "He's always in that black armor of his. I wonder why..."

Moderate Rumors

• “If he spares your life, you best watch out. He never leaves a target alive without reason.”

• "He'd slit his mother's throat if the price suits his fancy!"

Rare Rumors

• “I saw this man emerge from the shadows. Just before my friend was killed, he screamed Shinku Tamashi: Crimson Soul. This Shinku looked at me and then seemingly vanished…”

• “I heard a child murdered his parents!” “I heard it was a mere boy!” “A boy just into his adolescent years…”

• "You got him wrong. He may be a cold-blooded killer, but he never kills innocents."

• "He does the dark deeds nobody else will do. Remember the Wolves of Garland? Nobody would do anything about them; he did. He repays dark deeds with dark justice of his own. That's why some say he's a dark knight."
