- Appearance:
Sanzo stands at an even 6' (182 cm) and weighs roughly 160 lbs sporting a fairly lean build, much like many adult male ninja. His skin has some warm undertones given the climate in the Land of Lightning and general outdoor activity, but nothing compromising the natural warm ivory he was born with which compliments his crimson head hair and natural brown eyes.
Over both feet Sanzo wears a pair of black sandals where he tends to wrap the ends of his pants and the cuff of his sandals up with white bandage wrap to prevent snag and adds an additional layer of protection and insulation. The pants worn are solid black baring no identifiable features much like the sleeveless black shirt her wears in conjunction with a white, single-trap flak jacket which, despite its odd appearance, gets the job done. Like many ninja he wears a utility belt carrying an array of ninja tools stored in a pouch and two holsters. Across his body he wears a brown baldric which carries a Naginata plus a tanto which is stored horizontally at the lower back. At last he wears his Kumogakure forehead protector with the plate facing forward serving as ideal protection in combat as well as a valid identifier for his village.
The name shocked those with weak wills into a frenzy. Chills and thrills conveniently shared in a fifty acre lot. Oni Land served as an amusement park offering rides, concession, walk-in spooky houses, and plenty of dining options. It was like a year-round Halloween attraction where every day was one filled with spooks and funnel cakes. The attract was a lot more popular with adolescents than any other age group, and it was expected that a lot of angsty teens in one place caused trouble. Most cases there were fights among small tribes of teens, which were easier to break up than expected. Unarmed security is generally not taken too seriously, though even the teenagers know not to test their luck with a trained ninja carrying more blades on their body than their mom's kitchens all put together.
What doubled the intimidation factor was perhaps the most clever use of a blunder. During his evening snack while enjoying a cherry funnel cake he managed to drip some of the sauce upon his white flak jacket. The stain was easily convinced as blood given the low light conditions as dusk settled in. Although unintentional he caught on pretty quick that he was even more intimidating than before. Needless to say, tonight was going to be an easy pay day.
Sanzo stood at the heart of Oni Land, which was where most stalls and food establishments were set up. It was helpful to stick around the most densely populated area as a deterrent, plus if any issues were reported by the regular security detail they could quickly report to him at a known location. The sun had already set and the sky bore a lavender shade as the remaining daylight would slowly fade over time until night would be officially set. He had two more hours left on the clock before he could head back to the office, file his report, and head on home. While it was a boring task he had to remain vigilant for thieves, drunks, and potential mobs of kids of parental issues. While Oni Land had no real Onis, it certainly brought the spirit out of people.
