Clothing/Personal Style:
Shun either dresses in very formal attire that has more of a steampunk touch to it, or he wears a more casual outfit.

His casual outfit is beige coloured pants and similar coloured loafers with a black jacket or cardigan, a dark t-shirt with some form of print on it, a red and black chequered square scarf and a dark blue "golfer" cap.

His formal attire, that has the steampunk touch to it, is a long light brown trench coat, a black top hat with brass colour goggles (that have two small magnifying lenses on one eye piece.), dark brown trousers with high top brown leather boots that have brass clamps on them, a white dress shirt and a light brown waist coat. With a nice brown cravat tied neatly around his neck.

Behaviour and Personality:
Shun is very shy at first, it takes him a while to get used to people around him. However, once he has gotten to know someone, he is very animated and loud, as if the shyness never existed. When he is around someone he likes, he sits there and talks on and on about random things and is seen as a nervous wreak. This slowly wears off, until the other person complements him and that sends him right off again.

Shun can be pretty open minded and very optimistic, but as anyone would, he does have he moments of depression that he tries to hide. On average, Shun has a low self-esteem, due to his younger life and his own personal feelings about himself. He tries to be positive though. Shun also comes off as a bit of a dork/geek/nerd and is not bothered about it if someone calls him so. Shun also has a tendency to apologise too much, even if there is nothing to apologise for.

History: Shun was born and raised in Australia, he was the fourth child in the family. He has two older brothers and an older sister. During his school life, Shun was bullied very harshly, which pushed him away from others making him very shy and hard to talk to. Eventually, a few kids decided to make a chance and befriend him and ever since then, they have been the best of friends. During his high school life, Shun gained a massive interest in occult and supernatural topics. He got his first deck of tarot cards and treats them as if they were his flesh and blood. As his delved deeper into the topic, his mind opened up more, showing he has a small knack for being able to see little snippets of the future and that when he is feeling something horrible deep inside his body, it is time to get out of there or avoid what is happening. Because of this, Shun has been able to save a friends life, his own life, avoid some other animals to befriend and who to trust.

Now in collage, Shun got a decent job at a cafe making coffee to help pay for his rent and other necessities. One day between classes, Shun accidentally ran into an otter by the name of Xaerun. He apologised several times, before rushing back to class. The event occurred another few times during the week and it took Shun some time to realise the smile on the otter's face. Before he knew it, they ended up in a cafe having coffee and hit it of great. Before long, they started dating and plan to stay that way.
