{Character Data}
{Appearance}
Surprisingly short, but somewhat skinny, Hitori has the very definition of a lean, but petite, frame. She has pale white skin, and one of the most obvious things about her is her scars. She has terrible burn marks over her hands going up to her wrists, hence why she wears the white gloves. She has long, platinum white straight hair that reaches down to around her upper back, and it is often swept back behind her shoulders wherever possible. The fringe is usually very messy, almost as if she can't be bothered to fix it up, but she has enough effort to at least swipe it away from her eyes, even if it doesn't last long. While she is 'working' however, she ties it up in a ponytail, usually looking rather scruffy. She has jet black eyes, which is strangely very glossy. Her bust area is relatively flat and her lithe figure is not what would be considered sexy, almost reaching underweight at times. One of the first things people notice about her is her consistently bored look, similar to Aokiji in how underwhelmed she seems.
Hitori is incredibly covering with her clothes, she wears a black sweatshirt with a single red stripe along both sleeves, with a grey hoodie on top with a red crescent facing downwards and a thick red circle inside with a line straight downwards coming from the circle. She has in fact drawn this symbol on every piece of clothing that she has. She wears black sweatpants as well, and grey low block heel shoes. One thing she seems to never be willing to take off are her white gloves, made to fit.

{Personality}
Hitori has two personalities, in a sense, but not like some kind of multiple personality disorder. She is extremely good at switching up what she needs to do in every situation, and thus she has a different persona for when she's 'working' and when she's in a casual scenario. While she's working, she is incredibly manipulative, and often harsh and cold when the situation needs her to be. She is frequently remarked for her cunning and sly actions, and has a very hard time trusting any person she is meant to be allies with. This is actually because she often makes the mistake of thinking people are just like her, and she herself is one of the most untrustworthy people for anyone to know in the first place.
When she isn't working, Hitori is a very shy person. She is almost the complete opposite as her working persona, and has a hard time getting to know people because she's always scared of losing them. She has the clear problem that she can never have an actual genuine conversation with anyone. She is a compulsive liar, and even while she isn't 'working', she can't seem to stop herself from continuing down that path. She is also a very difficult person to get to know because she often hides from people, and has an obvious thing against human contact, especially skin on skin, which her gloves luckily help with.

{Skills & Talents}
Talented Thief:
Having practiced previously, at quite a young age, and having a natural inclination for speed with her hands, her sleight of hand is incredible. She constantly pickpockets during her journeys, and she has even been said to steal a weapon in the middle of a fight at times.
Urban Tracking:
While in a rural area, like forest or the such, she is not the kind who can see footprints or smell danger. However, she is very good at finding underground information, and gathering about a target that she has set her eyes on through the interconnected web of cities.

{Combat Data}
{Traits}
Inhuman swiftness
(Human Starter Trait)
Hitori has a surprising amount of speed but she only seems to use it for sleight of hand. While her actual agility seems to be about average, her movements are anything but average, always coming to supernatural at times.
Used to Flames
(Human Starter Trait)
Due to a previous encounter with fire, Hitori has a natural distaste, but even more so a natural resistance to it. While it's nowhere near an immunity, she can survive situations where it may be deemed miraculous, and is incredibly tolerant to the pain of burns as well.

{Fighting Styles}
{ Scabbard Rush}
Swordsmanship, Sheath, Feints
E Class ||| --- XPz
Swordsmanship, Sheath, Feints
E Class ||| --- XPz
Rather than using two swords, Hitori uses a swordbreaker and sheath. Using her sword for sharp combat, and her sheath for blunt damage, she often creates feint opportunities with her sword, which opponents often see as the real threat, and in fact uses her sheath as a weapon more than her actual sword.
{Sheath’s End}
Sheath, Defence, Deflecting
E Class ||| --- XPz
Sheath, Defence, Deflecting
E Class ||| --- XPz
One of the main uses is that the sheath is a very effective blocking tool. By outstretching it over her forearm, Hitori can block and often simply deflecting incoming melee attacks away from her direction.
{Techniques}
Rank 1 ||| 50 XPZ
[/spoiler][/ul]While holding her sheath out over her forearm, Hitori starts to flow underneath opponent’s melee weapons, using the sheath to slide underneath and lead the weapon away from her during it.
{Under The Sea Follow-Ups}
[/b][/font]}The following techniques can only be done after a successful Under The Sea
Rank 1 ||| 50 XPZ
[/spoiler][/ul][/spoiler]After deflecting and sliding underneath a given attack, Hitori pushes the sheath towards her opponent in a stabbing motion, while moving the edged side of her SwordShatter to the opponent's foot to hook and force them off balancing, allowing said stab to trip the opponent over while remaining in contact.
Rank 1 ||| 50 XPZ
[/spoiler][/ul][/spoiler]About to strike with both weapons at the same time from either side, Hitori suddenly changes the direction of her sheath while continuing with her sword, and leading the sheath upwards, and then down from above.
{Equipment}
[/spoiler][/div]{SwordShatter}
Rank 1 ||| 100 XPz
Rank 1 ||| 100 XPz
A longsword with strange jagged teeth on one edge, and a sharp edge for the other side. These teeth are specialised for locking opposing weapons into them, and if done correctly, can even break them apart. The teeth slightly resemble arrows outwards, the flat ends making it easier to hook weapons, and the hilt has a kind of ring at the top, which is actually used as an unorthodox holding method to trick opponents.
{Rush}
Rank 2 ||| 250 XPz
Rank 2 ||| 250 XPz
A simple iron blunt sheath for her SwordShatter, used in her fighting styles. While the sheath remains mostly iron, the actual outside of the sheath has been completely lined with Kairōseki, allowing the blunt damage of the sheath to now easily affect devil fruit users and weaken them accordingly. While it is only a lining and not a complete creation, it has still got a slight increased durability, but the ornamentation on the outside had to be removed, with only slight bits of gold and silver over the Kairōseki, not enough to really stop the devil-fruit weakening contact.

{Background Data}
{History}
In a little neighbourhood on the Minion Island of North blue, where a total of around fifteen families lived ever so close together, including Hitori's incredibly close-knit family of her, her elder brother by three years named 'Issho Shenpo', her mother 'Akane Shenpo' and her father 'Arata Shenpo'. When Hitori was very young, they spent a lot of time enjoying life as kids that age usually do. Arata was a smithy, and tried to teach both Issho and Hitori some skill with the forge, but Hitori could never really catch it on. Akane worked with Arata for most of the time, but also had a side job of essentially babysitting all of the kids in the neighbourhood every Tuesday and Friday, due to the fact that they had the largest house in the area, and this was often the most fun day for both of the kids, having the chance to enjoy old and sometimes new friendships. It was a tough job for Akane, with the sheer number of children, but she was surprisingly good at controlling the crowd. Hitori was almost the opposite of how she ended up becoming, with how much she tried to talk with people, and despite the fact that it was almost always snowing outside, she didn't seem to care as long as she could meet some friends.
Hitori had actually been taught by her father on how to use the swords that he made, and she was much better at this. She had even tried creating her own style, even if it was a rather strange one. She had just thought that it was a cool thing, but it ended up being more useful than originally expected. One of the things that she had never been taught, but had decided to learn for herself, was the art of lockpicking. It wasn't that she needed it, or in fact, it wasn't for any good reason. She had actually just learnt it for the sake of impressing her crush at a very young age, and, well, she stuck with it after enjoying it so much, but would never dare to do it for anything that could get her in trouble, unless it was to mess with her parents of course.
Over time, Issho started to get more distant, when he was getting to his teenage years, and while this often happened with the kids that came to the 'Funtime', it affected Hitori quite a bit, though more because she looked up to him more than anyone else. She tried to be more like him, even though this was simply his 'rebel' stage, and that's where she started to grow more distant to her own friends as well. This was the first little show of her later personality, and it grew and grew, to a point where she was either too serious, or never serious enough, but she was still ruthlessly honest, and would never tell a lie, even if it meant that she ended up being too blunt for most people. It continued this way until she reached 15. Her fifteenth year ended up having the worst day of her life, and the one that ended up changing her the most.
Her neighbourhood had a small issue that they didn't like to tell their children, and Issho had learnt of it at around that time too, when he first started working. All of their money was in fact going into a pirate crew, a very lesser known one but a pirate crew nonetheless, and it seemed that they couldn't pay the price one too many times. Halfway through her fifteenth year, in what Hitori suspected to be her last time taking part in a Tuesday 'funtime', since it was around this age that Issho had stopped coming as well, the snow was lighter than usual. The house, that Hitori had learnt to call home for her whole life, with both her mother and father inside, and all of the children of the neighbourhood, started to burst into flames. With nobody even knowing about it, punishment had come for them. The snow didn't help with the flames at all, it didn't melt fast enough to be of any use, and the flames were too strong to get put out so easily. Panic had filled everyone's ears and the kids couldn't follow Akane's instructions despite her trying so hard to lead them out. Hitori tried to help the kids out, but they wouldn't even listen to her, despite having been friends with her for so long.
She didn't manage to save anyone. Akane died while trying, and Hitori's hands were permanently scarred from her own attempt of saving one of her old friends. Arata and her were the only ones to have survived the fire. Issho was nowhere to be seen. After that day, nobody below the age of 14 was in the town, and the pirates didn't seem to care. She started working with her father at that age, but she still didn't seem to manage to do anything. She was more or less there to give tools and the such, and wait. Over the years, she lost her honesty which had marked her out as a child, which Akane had tried so hard to help her with, and she ended up always trying to make herself look better than she actually was, which often needed lies. She started to learn the more terrible methods that an underhanded thief might have learnt, and kept telling her father that she was only trying to learn a few magic tricks. One of the biggest changes was the fact that she didn't want to talk to anyone anymore, as she was terrified that she would lose all of her friends, just like she had once done so all those years ago. At the age of 19, she disappeared with one of her father's cheaper swords, and was never seen there again.
