General Appearance: Sorin doesn't particularly consider himself anything special, but possesses a few features passed down from his family that stick out quite a bit to the average onlooker. He might be a little on the tall side for someone his age and sports an athletic build, being surprisingly a bit more muscular than one might expect him to be. His hair is naturally white with a blonde tinge to it, depending on the lighting and sometimes even the angle someone looks at him it looks more towards either color. He prefers the white a bit more himself. He keeps it in a bit of an unruly mess but has been known to get the back and sides shaved down a bit while keeping the top and front longer, the contrast is pleasing to him. His eyes are a bright red that tend to seem as if they're piercing straight through people although he doesn't believe to have any power to his gaze. His skin is pale white giving off the impression that he's sickly despite being in perfect health, there are no blemishes to speak of but when out in the sun for long periods of time freckles can be seen around his nose and under his eyes. His nose isn't pronounced but sports a rather strong and defined bridge, his jawline also happens to be structured in such a way. His teeth are just a bit whiter than his skin and perfectly straight, his mouth is defined in such a way that it can easily form a warm and sincere smile or a heart-wrenching scowl. He's also been told to have a rather thick neck.
| Clothing: Not really caring much for fashion Sorin sticks to what he likes and whatever is comfortable, and if those two things coincide then all the better. Most of the time he'll be wearing a t-shirt with some mix of the colors red, white and black, his favorite being a red and white shirt with a black record being split in two. If he's feeling particularly good however he'll step things up a bit and sport a red short sleeve jacket over a black and white shirt. His jeans are almost always black but has been known to wear some red one's at times, he prefers for them to be a bit more on the tight fitting side. Despite not need it he wears a red belt with the buckle being a record that splits in two when un-clipped. He basically always wears red and white sneakers and doesn't really care much to own any other type of footwear. More often then not you'll find him walking around while wearing some red and white headphones, and even if he doesn't need them you'll never find Sorin without his favorite pair of sunglasses.
| Personality: Sorin is a bit of a lone wolf, usually sticking to himself and doing his best to avoid places with large amounts of people. In fact, if he can avoid as much human contact as possible then he'd be pretty satisfied with that. It's not that he's the type to look down on people and refuse to deal with inferior specimens or whatever the hell, he's just so painfully awkward most of the time that he doesn't know how to deal with people. The few times he's tried there hasn't been much success so he just started to gradually dislike people altogether. Figured he might as well beat them to it and save the trouble of an annoying situation. Although he doesn't really hold the belief that all people are bad he just feels like there's something that goes wrong whenever he tries to interact with them and as such just avoids the disappointment. Thus Sorin spends all of his time sitting on whatever sideline he can find, keeping to himself and staying very observant of the world around him. Even though he doesn't converse with them he still finds it interesting to try and understand people, maybe if he gets good enough at that he'll be able to successfully speak with them.
If anyone were to ever break through they'd find that Sorin is actually an extremely kind and caring individual, being more than happy to help those in need and make a friend with anyone who would have him. He's the type who would do for others without asking for a single thing in return but also would try and solve all of his problems on his own, not wanting to be a burden to those he cares about. He's also a bit of an intellectual who enjoys deep and meaningful conversations, he loves to learn and secretly loves being able to teach others. To him, being able to give things like friendship and knowledge is the finest feeling in the world, or at least he would imagine it to be, it's not like he's had many opportunities to do so. Music speaks to him on a profound level so more often than not you'll always find him listening to it, he's a bit of a hardcore kid on the inside and even though it might be off-putting to most he finds absolute beauty in it.
Seeing as he isn't much for interacting with people in general he openly tries to do whatever he can in order to avoid conflict. This by no means is a sign of him being a pushover however, he'd simply rather handle things diplomatically if possible. Sorin is no fool either, he understands that some things in life cannot be avoided and if it calls for it he will stand up and knock someone down. He doesn't think himself to be especially powerful or invincible by any means, he simply lives without a fear of danger or harm because of how usually mellow and level headed he is. Sometimes this leads people to think he's crazy and cause them to back off in fear of him snapping on them. He doesn't bother trying to set the record straight because it proves successful in getting people to leave him alone, which is always nice. It takes quite a lot to get him riled up but some sure fire ways to set him off are betrayal and abusing the weak. In his mind honesty, trust, and loyalty are extremely important and practically sacred. He also holds the firm belief that if someone possesses power they should use it for good, simply abusing those who are incapable of defending themselves is inexcusable. His rage is a firm testament to the saying "calm before the storm" and to anyone who would invoke his wrath, they should sincerely think twice.

History:
History: Sorin was born into a rather large family in one of the many villages located within Romania, quite honestly if you had seen one then you'd seen them all so names were almost always forgotten except for those who'd lived there for decades. His parents were very loving and his siblings acted as one would expect of older brothers and sisters, for a couple of years Sorin was the youngest in his family. His family had a bit of a variety to them when it came to quirks although they mostly had to deal with energy or creating objects. Upon reaching the age where his siblings had developed their quirks it seemed as though nothing had manifested for him, as far as his family could tell there was nothing different about him. Try as he might Sorin couldn't seem to do anything like his parents or his brothers and sisters could, he could have possibly have just been a late bloomer but the other kids in the village who were around his age treated him like he was a freak for being quirkless. He'd always been a bit of an awkward kid so this new treatment certainly didn't help anything. At this point his parents would have taken him to see a doctor and hope for the best, but the nearest one who would be able to do anything was at least a hundred miles and the time and money it would take just didn't seem worth it. They still loved their son regardless of what he was and his siblings didn't treat him any differently.
Over the years a few more children were born and suddenly Sorin had a few younger siblings, deep down he was happy to have family but he'd only become more secluded and awkward as time went on. The adults in the village were polite but the other kids kept their distance, it seemed he had been born quirkless and as such nobody wanted to deal with him. Apparently he was below them because he wasn't normal, it hurt but after a while he'd just come to accept it and deal with things. His life wasn't bad, the only thing he could complain about was not being able to share in having a quirk with his family, the fact he didn't have any friends and could barely even hold a conversation most of the time didn't even bother him. It was just a part of who he was at this point. Still his family encouraged him that a quirk would manifest itself soon enough, he kept his fingers crossed but didn't really have his hopes up. It seemed like he'd be doomed to have no form of a power in life, rather unfortunate but that's just how it goes sometimes he figured.
Around the time he'd turned thirteen his father had decided to take him out to hunt for the first time. Sorin had never held a gun before but his father was dead set on teaching him, in his mind this was a surefire way to cheer up his son. After muddling about in the woods for some time in search of deer or perhaps a wild boar they weren't able to find much of anything. It was starting to get dark and Sorin's father was thinking of calling it quits and trying another day. Not long after they came across a rather large and tasty looking boar, getting into position Sorin's father told him to take his time and to shoot. Hunting and bringing home your first animal kill was the mark of becoming a man in his village, hopefully it would do something to raise his status with the kids, but Sorin didn't really care either way. He was unsure of himself and his doubt and inexperience caused him to miss and send the boar darting off into the darkness out of fear. Feeling awful about himself he apologized to his father who simply laughed things off, there'd always be another time and he was impressed at how close the bullet was to hitting it's mark for being his son's first time. As they were getting ready to return home there was more rustling from the bushes, expecting it to be another boar Sorin's father approached it with the intention of shooting it point blank. Unfortunately enough for the two it was a bear hiding about, apparently the shot Sorin had fired earlier had managed to awaken it and now it was angry. It attacked his father and left him wounded but not in mortal danger, he was unable to shoot though because his gun was destroyed, if Sorin didn't do something they would be in a lot of trouble. Feeling rather scared for the first time in a long time Sorin stumbled about to try and shoot at the bear, he dropped the gun and started to fumble around for it. It was rather large so you'd think it would have been easy but the state he was in left in something as simple as that difficult to accomplish. The beast turned it's attention to him and started to close the distance. Managing to locate the gun he started to crawl away Sorin didn't know what to do, he felt himself grasping at air as he panicked desperately. All he needed to do was muster up a little energy and shoot but the fear of it not being enough prevented him from doing just that. It seemed like him and his father would be meeting their end out here when suddenly the miracle he and his whole family had waited for happened, a strange white aura started to emanate from his body and the thin air he had been grabbing at suddenly formed into a bullet. It felt like it was more powerful than the one he had fired earlier but he was having trouble wrapping his mind around what was going on. But he didn't have time for that, loading up the rifle his father had given him he shot into the bear's open mouth as the beast came towards him. Falling over limp the creature showed no signs of being alive, running over to his father Sorin felt a rollercoaster of emotions, he had been so terrified but managed to do something amazing and was so excited. After running back to the village to get help Sorin's father was taken back along with the dead bear and the whole village stood in awe. It seemed Sorin's quirk had been there all along, he simply hadn't known how to correctly draw it out.
The next few years passed by in a blur, after having discovered what he was capable of doing with his quirk Sorin went through quite a lot. He'd learned how to fight from his father should the need to defend himself ever arise, after all shooting someone at the get go seemed poor taste. Sorin also spent a considerable amount of time alone in the woods hunting and practicing his abilities. He still wasn't very well received because of his awkwardness, but that didn't bother him, he'd grown accustomed to being alone and although he'd love to one day make friends he knew it wouldn't be an easy task for himself. Around the time he turned sixteen Sorin made a huge decision, he wanted to try and become a hero, like the really awesome and kind people he'd seen on tv, he wanted to be just like them. He'd heard that the best place to go in order to become a hero was U.A. Academy located in Japan, and although his family was sad at the thought of him leaving they'd noticed a considerable change over the last couple of years. Sorin had truly grown into someone great, even if most people couldn't see it the one's he loved most could and that was all that mattered. He was leaving with just about nothing more than the clothes on his back, it didn't feel right taking his father's rifle that he'd been using all these years. It was weathered and worn and quite frankly he didn't expect to be allowed to travel with an actual weapon, it wasn't the most ideal of situations but he'd make the best of it. On the day he was to leave his father called him to his parents bedroom and surprised him with something he wasn't expecting, apparently at a point in his life Sorin's father had traveled around the world a bit. It seemed that he had made friends with a pawn shop owner in Japan and through calling up on an old favor the man owed him it seemed Sorin would be having the greatest birthday present he'd ever received waiting for him once he landed. The fact that he'd be able to have a real weapon boosted his confidence in entering a new place significantly, it was almost surreal, but in this world they lived in it was more than possible. They sent him off with a huge farewell and Sorin began the next chapter in his life, he was determined to one day become a hero, and maybe if he was lucky he'd make a few friends along the way. After his flight and landing in Japan he made sure to go straight to the address his father had given him, and just as promised was his gift. Opening up the case he found two beautifully crafted white pistols inside, they were apparently made back in Italy so having something at least sort of close to home was reassuring. Thanking the owner for his kindness Sorin left the shop and began on his way, at this point he felt like he could take the entire world by storm, and quite frankly it didn't sound like such a bad idea.

Combat, Stats & Earnings:
Combat: Due to the nature of his quirk it is preferable if Sorin is able to keep his distance and attack from afar, wanting the opportunity to analyze the situation and chart the best course of action before making his move. This does not mean he is without instinct of course, if needed he is capable of acting at a moment's notice and just winging it, although truth be told he's not very fond of it. He is also not defenseless if backed into a corner, being able to fight in hand to hand combat, having received some training in Savate he is actually more of a force to be reckoned with then one might think.
