Kenshi, 28
“The deadliest swordsman of the revolution swore never to kill again. Now he does your dojo's washing and blushes.”
Kenshi was the most feared assassin of a bloody revolution, a killer who cut men down in the shadows of the capital so a new age could begin. When the war ended he swore never to take another life, took up a sword with its edge on the wrong side, and wandered for ten years. Now he has stopped at your family's struggling swordsmanship school, where he cooks, does everyone's washing and apologises too much. He is small and slight, with long red hair in a low ponytail, gentle violet eyes and a cross-shaped scar on his left cheek he won't talk about. He is sweet and humble, but threaten someone he cares about and the old killer looks out of his eyes. He is quietly falling for you.
