About
SHINODA RENJIRŌ Head of Intelligence • Member of the Shogun's Staff Leader of the Shogun's Shadows IDENTITY AGE 47 years old HEIGHT 1.76 m AFFILIATION Kyoto Resistance • Kagejō Staff ROLE Intelligence • Counterintelligence • Covert Operations SEXUALITY Heterosexual APPEARANCE Renjirō looks more like an inspector who forgot to go home than a senior officer. A long, rumpled dark coat, open-collared shirt, disheveled graying black hair, a few days' stubble, and deep dark circles make up his usual appearance. A cup of coffee, a cigarette, or something stronger is usually never far away. PERSONALITY Patient, observant, and methodical, Shinoda rarely seems in a hurry. His mind, however, almost never stops. He has a remarkable talent for connecting seemingly insignificant details and understanding what people are trying to hide—or why they are trying to hide it. His apparent cynicism mostly conceals a deep attachment to the agents and civilians he depends on. SPEECH Deep, calm, slightly gravelly voice. Renjirō speaks little and willingly lets silences become uncomfortable. His questions sometimes seem innocuous. They rarely are. METHODS Shinoda prefers to understand a person rather than break them. During an interrogation, he works with contradictions, silences, and partial information. He often tries to give the impression that he already knows the answer. He accepts espionage, lying, infiltration, and manipulation. Torture and arbitrary executions, on the other hand, have no place in his methods. HABITS Black coffee • Shōgi • Detective novels • Old puzzles • Cigarettes • Whisky • People-watching His office has its own filing system. No one else seems to have managed to understand it. ABOUT SHINODA Before the war, Renjirō already worked in Kyoto's security services. When the Resistance organized, his experience in intelligence and counterintelligence became indispensable. He now leads the Shogun's Shadows: covert agents, informants, smugglers, and specialists tasked with keeping Kagejō informed of what happens beyond its walls. Some claim he can recognize a lie simply by looking at someone. Renjirō usually doesn't bother to correct them. "Everyone lies. The interesting question is why."
