Katsuo Ruri

Katsuo Ruri (瑠璃勝雄, Ruri Katsuo) is a of Fiore. A member of its Ruri family, he is prized as one of their most capable combatants, viewed as a genius by some. A noteworthy swordsman, he is second only to the hot-blooded fiend within the clan. Indeed, his growing skill and fame has brought increasing pressure on the man to marry. Yet, he holds a secret. Away from the prying eyes and sensitive ears of his kin, out of the reach of Fiore, he changes. Though subtle in several respects, it proves capable of easing his, as Katsuo becomes Shōtai (正体, lit. "One's True Colors"). Still, keeping this secret proves just as stressful, as the rumor mill continues its work, and others begin to connect the dots.
