Personality. Despite his age, Gintoki often shows various childish behaviour. He has a sweet tooth and obsession with sugary and sweet foods. However, Gintoki has been warned by his doctor to control his sugar intake. He is also obsessed with reading the manga and Icha Icha Books. Gintoki will go to great lengths to get the latest manga issue which includes reckless behavior. Additionally, he blames his naturally permed silver hair for his lack of a love-life. Though several women have shown an interest in Gintoki, he usually does not show any response back and merely puts up with them as annoyances.
Despite his appearance and initial behavior, Gintoki has a great amount of pride for his samurai code. He takes it upon himself to rescue or avenge not only his comrades and friends but also people he barely knows. Despite being a fearsome fighter, he acts like a coward to prevent bloodshed. He is described by others as lazy, unmotivated, and useless though they see his kind, responsible, and unpredictable self. As a former samurai, Gintoki is a powerful swordsman even among other strong samurai. His weapon of choice is a bokuto with the words "Lake Toya" inscribed on it. Using this sword, he is often seen cutting, smashing and basically destroying all kinds of objects. Occasionally, though, Gin has used other swords, including real ones such as katana, in combat when he needs to due to a tougher encounter. Although Gintoki is more than capable of defeating powerful warriors and various other samurai, he will not hesitate to use tricks and manipulation if it means a quick and easy victory.

Life, death, war, peace.... all of those words were taken so lightly in my infancy. Every day I pondered to myself the meaning of our finite lives in this infinity universe, slowly decaying in the eternal time. Everything has a beginning, and everything has an end. The greatest sages were able to understand that, even after the greatest storm, a rainbow will emerge. I guess that is how I could explain my own story.
The beginning of the end.

I had a small, loving family, which consisted of my younger brother Kin, and my father, a former samurai from the Land of Iron who retired from his position after my mother's death. My mother died giving birth to my younger brother, sacrificing her life for his sake. Even though I was very young, I remember her making me promise to always protect him. It has been six months since her death.
Even though there was no power struggles nor fights, my father began to teach me the way of the sword. My father was calm and understanding, who always had the patience of correcting me whenever I was wrong. I was still young to completely master the sword, though I was still able to hold on my own since a young age. He was so proud of me, it made my heart raise. It always fills me with nostalgia every time I remember his sweet smile.
Every afternoon, I ran to the river to play "samurai" with my friends, who were around the same age as I. Though I always won the small, childish spars, they always told me it was unfair, as my father taught me the sword. Every time I listened to that, I always told them that it was just an excuse for their own weakness, though I always smiled in the inside for having such a magnificent father.
I would have never thought that my small paradise would disappear so quickly...
The Third Ninja World War started without any notifications. I was around eight years of age by then. My village, being in the main way between two villages, was destroyed. The villages called it "collateral" damage, as it was never intended to destroy such small town. The images of that night have been burned into my memories.

Some ninja entered the village, slaughtering everyone as if it was just a game. From the sounds and screams, I was able to deduce that there were at least twenty of them. My father, understanding there was no way of outrunning them, placed his palm on my check as he told me to run and not look back, promising me that he would catch on me later. I couldn't prevent crying in the scene, but he stopped me,
telling me to save those tears for later.
He showed me a small escape route that he had created behind the house, telling me to keep running and running and not look back. I started to run, listening to his orders, though I did look back. His smile turned into such a serious expression, as he unsheathed his old katana to fight...
Several hours later, after the attack was over, I ran back to the village in order to look for my father. As I ran, I saw that the clouds were dark, ready to rain. I entered my house, or the remains of it after the fire had taken the roof and walls. I frenetically began to dig among the debris, only to find the corpses of six ninja... and my father, lifeless in the floor. In my company, the sky started to cry with me. My crying quickly stopped, as I heard the steps and voices from two ninja who were coming back in order to check for any survivors to kill. I couldn't hold back my anger any longer. Taking my father's sword, I slayed them both before they were able to react. My infancy was already over, I became a demon...

To become a samurai.
The war ended quickly than expected, but no one even bothered to clean after their mess. The corpses of innocent civilians and shinobi were everywhere, I couldn't look pass the horizon without seen a pile of lifeless bodies. Even though the beginning was sickening, I quickly grew over it, and found it quite beneficial. In some corpses, I was able to find some provisions, such as water and food, within other resources such as money. I spent around a month digging for my daily meal as I traveled north, toward the Land of Iron, though I initially didn't know that.
One day, as I was scavenging over a body, I heard some foot steps coming toward my general direction. My initial reaction was of course, defensive. I unsheathed my sword at great speed as he walked toward me. He started to talk to me, in a calm, understanding voice, similar to my father's. I started to feel much more comfortable with the man, until he pulled his sword out, still in the scabbard. I started to think all of it was a lie, that I was going to die there. The man, even though he looked gentle, was without a doubt strong. My muscles tighten, I was hardly able to breath. Suddenly, he threw his sword at me. As I was coming back into balance, he came closer to me without notice, putting the palm of his hand over my head, smiling. I will never forget the words that came from his mouth.

"If you want to learn the sword, come with me, I will not teach you how to use the sword to cut through your enemies or use it as a shield to protect your weaknesses, but to protect your soul"
After he said that, I let go of my father's memento, which held the feelings of hatred and desperation of that night, and grasped the new sword the man gave me. The sword became my new hope, my new light. We then began our journey toward the Land of Iron. My goal became clear: Become strong enough to protect what I hold dear.
After reaching the Land of Iron, I was indoctrinated by that man, whom I called sensei from that they on, in a dojo full of other children of the same age as I. From their looks, some of them had the faces of people who suffered a great loss. In that class, I met two of my greatest friends, Keotsu and Riku. Keotsu, being the oldest one among us, was quite wise despite his age, though Riku and I didn't fall behind. With his aid and teachings, we became the strongest samurai around... from our age anyways. His training was murderous and had to work most of the time. The only time I was able to sleep was during his doctrines, which he didn't mind. Keotsu was the one who overdid it, as he visited his good friend Mifune, who taught him some styles that I was unfamiliar with in the beginning. Curiously enough, there was a an underclassmen who followed behind, named Jacob Moore, who loved to spent time with us regardless of us being two years older than him. I often spend much more time with Riku and Keotsu, always doing pranks that would get us in trouble. Our master was always there to listen to our problems, and most importantly, love us, regardless of we having no blood ties whatsoever.

Land of Iron: Rebellion.

The rebellion started in a much more faster pace than expected. Soon enough, the capital became a bloodbath, full of corpses from both factions. The conservative faction won the fight, overthrowing the current Shogun. In order to prevent forces from raising against the new government, they took prisoner the daughter of the Shogun, Izanami Kaito, and my master, who played a major role in the conservative forces. Though I fought in order to recover him back, I was still weak. Seen I and my other partners have been taken as hostages, he surrendered with the condition of letting us free. There goes another person who had sacrificed his own well being for my sake.
I promised him that I will change the ruling structure after I become stronger, and also, free him from his chains. He smiled at me, and walked away with the guards. From that, I secretly started a faction to overcome the government with Keotsu, Riku and Jacob Moore, called "Nos Venerabilem". Together, we trained much more harder in order to achieve our goal, leaving the Land in order to stay out of the sight of the current shogun.

During our travels, I meet a man named Yard, a man who had trained his entire life in taijutsu. After having a small chat with him and my intentions, he decided to support me by teaching Jeet Kun Do. Training simultaneously under Keotsu and Yard was one of the most difficult years of my life, but thanks to that, I became much more stronger, agile, faster and received much more stronger reflexes.
I met a whole lot of interesting people from different villages during our journey. Visiting different villages we met Toshiro and Xanthe from Kumogakure, Migualon and Taiketsu from Kiri, Mathias and Jinbei from Iwa, Scorps and Yamato from Konoha, and lastly Dan and Rexxi from Suna. All of them were and still are from today precious, irreplaceable friends from time.
It wasn't too long after four years passed...

Four years after reformation.
You must be registered for see images
Four years passed after the rebellion. Me and Keotsu traveled back to the Land of Iron to secretly meet with Riku and Jacob Moore. After our warm reunion, we plotted our plan. We agreed we wouldn't attack in the shadows like cowards, but declare a war against the ruling structure itself, with the intention of attracting others to join our cause. From our investigations, the current Shogun had became a complete tyrant, taking money from the poor and making them work up to starvation.

The Shogun, knowing fully that he wasn't messing with some common rioters, started to investigate about us and our pasts. At the same time, we started to incite the people to take action, which was slow and time consuming. They were afraid of losing everything they held dear, despite us being there to protect them. Though plan was functioning almost perfectly, it was slower than planned. The people started to take some action, slowly changing the ruling structure. It didn't took long for us to receive our nicknames "The Vigilantes".
The battles, even though we were truly outnumbered, were remotely easy. I was thinking to myself after every fight if they were incredibly weak or we were just too strong. Either way, everything was turning out to work perfectly. Every battle we won, more people were supporting us, and we were getting closer to rescuing our master, who had remain hostage for the past four years. We did our best to keep our identities away from any one, as it could had hurt us by threatening our to harm our master. Though we were certain they wouldn't hurt someone who is truly important against us, the Shogun had other plans.
The shogun, when he found our identities after researching, took harsh action against us in order to dispirit us. He sent a single child to us, carrying a single bag. The child told us that he didn't come to fight to us, but to give us a package which came personally from the Shogun. The child, leaving the bag behind, ran back home, crying. Though we were suspicious first, we decided to open the bag, just to find the decapitated head of our master.

I failed... I couldn't protect him...
Though it was an error in his part, because instead of dispiriting us, it gave us strength to go in a full-out war against him without having the life of the one we love in danger. I wanted to kill the Shogun badly, but over all, I wanted to keep my promise to my Sensei. I couldn't protect him, but I would protect the nation he loved so much. And, as I promised my father, I would keep my tears for later, though the sky seemed to disagree, as it began to cry once again, crying on my stead.

Full-out WAR!
The rage was all over us, we couldn't keep it away. Immediately after seen our Sensei's head on the bag, we couldn't stay quiet any longer. The four of us charged to the castle. It was time to finish this once and for all.

In the castle, around one thousand soldiers awaited for us. Though they were many, we were stronger. It was a long, desperate war of four against a thousand, but our will never extinguished. Five minutes after the battle had began, the number of enemies just seemed to never decrease. Our bodies were getting heavier, our movements sloppier. When everything seemed to be lost, the civilians of the Land of Iron started to attack. With extra number on our sides, and most important, the cooperation of the people, we were able to overcome most of the army. Mid-way during the fight, some of the soldiers understood our intentions and risk their life in order to accept the change. Around three hundred soldiers joined our side, leaving around two hundred soldiers surrounded.
Keotsu, Riku, Jacob Moore and I charged into the castle, though we separated for different objectives. Keotsu and I would defeat the Shogun, while Jacob Moore and Riku would rescue Izanami Kaito, who had remained hostage since the new Shogun took the lead.

As expected, the Shogun didn't leave the place. After such humiliation, he wanted the heads of the one's who started everything on a stake. Even though he talked completely over-confidently, he was just a mere coward. From a single clap, around fifty of his own personal soldiers came out of the walls, surrounding us. Every one of them were special assassins under their own right, being highly capable of holding their own ground. Even under pressure, me and Keotsu smiled as we released an infinity amount of blades over the room, ready to fight.
The fight ended under a two minutes, ending in the complete extermination of the army.The Shogun was cornered, but me and Keotsu decided not to kill him. He wouldn't fall as low as him, though Izanami had a different view. Once she came into the room, she took the head of the Shogun with her own blade, retrieving what was from the beginning rightful to her. She, as her father, wanted to change the ruling structure of the country.

Everything turned out to be for the best. Izanami did an amazing job as a female Shogun, capable of leading the Land of Iron with grace and rectitude. All of the citizens were glad that change finally occurred, giving them hope and dreams for a much more brighter future.
Years later,despite having the title of Dragon of the East, I opened my own business, which I called Gin's Odd Jobs. Riku, Keotsu and Jacob got a little distant, as their job of protecting the land was incredibly taxing. The east, being such a peaceful place, gave me time to kill, which was spent procrastinating, training and consuming sweets.
During my journeys, two children joined my business. Whenever I am busy with my job as a Dragon, I was capable of trusting them with the business, in which they excel in. I guess I take care of them, the same way my Sensei took care of me at that age. The girl, called Kagura, fourteen years of age, is an Inuzuka from Konohagakure who decided to leave home for adventures. The eldest of the two, Shinpachi, sixteen years of age, is a novice samurai who wants to become stronger in order to protect what is precious to him. Together, we had amazing and still have amazing adventures in this wonderful land, from battling to fighting corruption, and other stuff.

Becoming Field Martial and joining the Yakuza.
It wasn't long until I reached the age of twenty-three. Thanks to my work, efforts, and higher training on skills, me and Keotsu ranked upwards, receiving the title of Second in Command or also known as the Field Martials.
Despite being given such title, I have been unable to find any clues about my brother for the last fifteen years of my life. Kaito, knowing of my struggle, advised me to see Alucard, leader of the secret Yakuza clan about my brother. Without a second of hesitation, I requested a meeting with him. After conversing with him, he extended me an invitation to the Yakuza, who will informed about anything that they may find about my brother. After accepting, I was taught the Ogame style by Typhon, growing even stronger.
For the sake of my brother, and the sake of Nos Venerabilem, I shall not give up. I shall protect anything within my grasp, even at the cost of my own life.

Gintoki trained strenuously in the way of the samurai since an early age.
-Kenjutsu (Sword Techniques, Iado)-
Gintoki spent almost his entire childhood honoring the sword. He trained everyday thus increasing his ability with his sword dramatically. He is able to cut insects in mid-flight and a single piece of hair in half without a sweat. His Iado techniques became exceptional, he is able to produce better results than and average samurai from his level. Thanks to his training with Keotsu, he is capable of using the Infinity One Sword Style and the Command Arts, powerful styles which are able to clear the field with ease.
-Senses-
Gintoki learned that the vision of sight and other senses has to be balanced. He trained how to react towards attackers in training blindfolded by following his sense of smell, hearing and tact. His other senses balance out the necessities to visualize the outside world to a certain degree. His senses are a bit above normal, though they aren't as good as Inuzukas.
-Deductive Prowess-
Even though samurais are considered to fight wisely, Gintoki is considered an outstanding genius within samurais. He is able to deduce quickly how an opponent will attack or defend and act accordingly without major effort. His experience against shinobi in the past and the fearsome ninjutsu has helped him grasp a better understanding of their fighting style, thus being able to plan ahead how a shinobi will use his technique and figure a way to counter it.
-Reaction Speed-
Gintoki is able to react faster than the average thanks to his deductive skills and above average senses. With Jeet Kune Do, he gained 3x the ability to read through enemy taijutsu and movement, capable of reacting with enourmous speed when compared to an average Strong Fist user. This, however, doesn't refer to running speed which suffers no differance and in essence the movement speed of the users body is only slightly above that of a normal Strong Fist user.
-Weaponry-
Gintoki carries a large supply of throwing knives, flash grenades, wire and other supplies in his pounches. One located on his left leg and the other behind his back in the left side. During a fight, he carries 4 katanas, two on each side. He also has wires wrapped around his arms and legs, which he uses to wrap his enemies with. He is seen carrying two cases of infinity one sword style swords, which he can carry without any difficulty. He never goes anywhere without a gas mask, which he learned to carry everywhere after the atrocities of war. Gintoki also owns his own personal katana, which he calls Lake Toya.

Lake Toya-Hoshikudaki
Rank: S
Type: Weapon
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 5 each turn is in play
Damage Points: N/A (+10 ken, +10 tai)
Description: Lake Toya is a katana with a wooden scabbard. The legend goes that the first hokage, after growing a fascination for kenjutsu, created a katana with his wood release, but the weapon was lost in time after his death. The wood used is of the highest caliber, being able to resist huge amount of strain, and highly reistant against sharp edged objects, these not being able to lay a single scratch in the wood.
The user is able to use the katana as a bokuto, landing strong blunt attacks at the opponent, or unsheat it in order to use a sharp edge. The user is also able to use both the scabbard and the sword in order to make blash-slash combinations.
The sword has some strange power up though. After being with the current user for a long time, the katana and the user will grow an unorthodox bond with each other, as many kenjutsu masters believe that swords have their own souls. The user, by channeling chakra into the sword (regardless of being sheated or not), he/she gains +10 boost in kenjutsu and taijutsu, but the user most maintain adding chakra into the sword in order to work. The reason of this strange boost, is becuase when the chakra channelizes into the sword, the sword makes the chakra richer and transmits it into the user's muscles and other areas in the body, making the user stronger and faster in his swings.
-The user's speed is only applicable when striking. This means strikes with this sword are faster and stronger than normal, thus the enhancement of +10 kenjutsu.
-The user's taijutsu skills improved in strength (not neccesarily in speed, as the muscles are solidely enhanced for sword strikes), thus increasing the power of taijutsu techniques by +10
-The user's base speed does not improve whatseover, as the enriched chakra isn't mainly channeled to the muscles in charge of walking, running and jumping
-This sword can only be used by a samurai bio
-This sword can only be used by Gin-San
