Shaun Ryuu

Shaun Ryuu (Shahn Ree-you) is the leader and founder of the Messengers of Vengeance, and a lead of the manga series The Messengers of Vengeance.



Appearance
Shaun is often characterized as feminine in physique, which is played upon when he's forced to dress as a woman ("Audrey") to save Betusai from Xavion. Further, he has long white hair and red eyes, an Albinian characteristic. Often dressed in dark clothing (especially his famous black cloak, which always seems to get the worst part of battles), his visage reflects a sort of antihero base.

He's a very driven character when it comes to personality, with a mind that will not rest until the goal at hand has been accomplished efficiently and effectively.

Assassin's Guild Training
Shaun was trained by a member of the famous "Assassin's Guild", who taught him a lot of his thief-like fighting style. He can move at speeds faster than the average eye can follow, and strike at weakpoints while maintaining his advantageous position.

Magical Weapons
His daggers, the Daggers of Light and Shadow, also have powers embedded within their two gemstones. Through use and mostly accident, Shaun has discovered a few powers of the daggers and uses them to his advantage.

Lockpicking
Shaun's ability to pick locks has helped the Messengers of Vengeance out of their fair share of situations and has helped them progress in a number of missions.
