Description
Personality Information: Likes, Dislikes, Habits and Traits:
Full Name: Mansei; Eiji [Rampant Life; What comes next]
Personality:
Eiji is a pretty friendly guy, often willing to go out of his way to help out someone in need.
He firmly believes good karma follows good deeds, and that what goes around comes around.
Eiji does his best to leave places of nature in better condition than when he discovered them,
but will help himself to a few berries in a bush or pick a few bugs off the ground to take home.
Though Eiji often comes off as the carefree "go with the flow" type, he has a sentimental side.
Eiji's a bit of a motormouth, and has a habit of changing his mind after he says something,
which can prove problematic sometimes. Though he does his best not to start unnecessary fights,
he's a bit of a punk and will throw a punch for what he thinks is right or if he's pushed enough.
Sometimes he'll get a bit defensive when it comes to people who disrespect his family or nature,
and will take things into his own hands. He's a bit of a sheep, meaning he's often loyal to a fault.
Eiji's not the brightest boy, but he makes up for it with a strong work ethic and good intentions!
"Hey, you've got a round nose! You know what they say about round noses!"
"Don't look at me, I dunno where the birds are from! All I did was stand still for a second!"
"Oi, Eiyuu! Take a look at those Minawa, I bet they're talking about something boring!"
"If I catch ya talkin' down on my lil' bro, I'll drop ya like a sack of rocks - Believe it!"
"You've got some nerve throwing trash under trees when they're what's keepin' you alive!"
"Inside?! Boring! Let's go outside, it's a beautiful day! Where's your sense of Adventure?"
His Plant Affiliation is Nanten ( Link) also known in English as, "Heavenly Bamboo."
This shrub is actually not a bamboo. This is a suckering evergreen shrub growing to 2 m tall.
Leaves are pinnately, 3-4 cm long and 1 cm broad. Young leaves are red, old ones are purple.
The Berries are approximately 5mm diameter ripening in Autumn. Birds really love this berry!
I chose this plant because It's a good luck charm, and I imagine he's extremely lucky.
He's the type of guy who picks berries off a bush without checking if they're poisonous first,
and yet somehow he scrapes by. I'm not sure of the Mansei gods, but they must like him!
I imagine he also has birds perching in his (messy) hair regularly, and Shrubs boost Ken.

Backstory:
As mentioned above, Eiji is a sentimental guy and tends to keep souvenirs from Missions.
He likes to leave places in better condition than he found, but likes to take something home.
Eiji has kept all the wood carvings his father made him and his brother when he was a child,
and though he won't admit it, he sometimes still plays with them under the blankets at night.
At this point, Eiji doesn't really know why he keeps these things around, just that he likes to.
But if you ask him, he hasn't had a very "interesting" life so far and wishes to see more.
Having grown up and led a fairly normal life in the Mansei Clan, he's part of a family of 5.
Eiji has two siblings, one of which is his twin, whom he is practically connected to at all times.
Eiji considers himself the older twin because he's bigger, and carries Eiyuu on his shoulders.
He believes like this, they are tenfold strength. They make a good team for the most part.
The other is his older sibling, who was born in the last sporing cycle and is 14 years older,
and is the golden child. They have a sort of awkward relationship due to the large age gap.
His parents didn't plan to have more children as they were both in the shinobi military,
but went did on a whim during a long lapses between Missions during the "sporing season."
Unfortunately, there were some complications during the twins unexpected double birthing,
which forced their mother into an early retirement - Though she's still got a fighting spirit,
she spends a lot more time in a chair complaining about how she's not as old as she looks.
Eiji's father on the other hand is still a full time Shinobi despite pushing on his early 50's,
but on his spare time he likes to spend time in the garden or carving woodblock figurines.
His brother is GreenFrogSina 's Eiy ū Mansei
