Mugen stands exactly 5'5" in height which displays an athletic yet slim physic, weighing in at around one hundred and twenty pounds. His complexion is blemish free in nature, which is cast upon tanned skin tone, with dark brown eyes. Mugen has messy brown-black hair which is styled in an Afro-like fashion, which feathers outward from the bottom, while he displays a faint mustache or beard due to his young age. His clothing is anachronistic as well, reminiscent of baggy hip-hop fashions of today. Mugen's common attire consists of a common white shirt, with a stitch pattern running down the middle of the shirt, finally ending at the halfway point of the shirt. He wears this under a red long-sleeve Gi that functions as a jacket, which displays the Kanji symbol for "Freedom" in white writing upon his back. He wears a dark gray Hakama cut off at shorts-length, resembling loose-fitting Bermuda shorts and Japanese Geta on his feet. These Geta have been reinforced with metal plating on the soles in order to block incoming blades, which helps greatly when using his fighting style of Capoeira. The Geta are also secured to Mugen's feet using a high quality rope material, that casts a beautiful red and white braided color to match his Gi. He has six special blue sealing ring tattoos, two on each wrist and two just above the ankles, which he received during his time in Kusagakure's prisons. Mugen also sports dual green bead earrings, and a weapons pouch located on his lower back, underneath his Gi. Lastly, he carries his prized sword on his back with a sash that goes from his right shoulder to his left hip, that has a zig-zag pattern of green and brown. All these wears make for a comfortable, yet stylish, apparel that Mugen uses on a daily basis as he treads the path of the Shinobi.

As some would say, there are two sides to every coin. People might put up a forward appearance or demeanor from which to distract and deter others from getting close to them emotionally. This could not be any more prevalent in the way in which to describe Mugen as a whole. Orphaned at a young age, Mugen did what he had to do in order to survive the cold harsh reality of the world around him. This in turn making him cold and calloused when trying to develop relationships with others, though not impossible, he would need to spend an excessive amount of time with them for any form of trust to actuality take place. Though even after gaining said trust, Mugen would never admit his attachment to those individuals, always preferring his actions to speak louder than any words he might say.

The demeanor Mugen displays is that of a very Ill-mannered individual, which make others quickly take offense if his true nature is unknown to them. Rude, lewd, vulgar, and nihilistic are all terms to describe this childish display of a personality, though if looked deeper inwards a much different personality is shown. Inside lies the heart of a innocent child, who was forced to grow up way beyond his years, due to the cruelties that exist in the world. The true nature of Mugen is a highly noble and honorable man, who's loyalty towards his friends is unbreakable, even in the face of death. Mugen holds a high respect for others willing to lay down their lives in service of their own views and dreams, though his praise is limited and often followed by the use of his sword. All in all, all these traits compiled together form the basic structure of what makes Mizuno, Mugen who he is as a whole. What changes his personality will suffer in the future is uncertain, but what is always vibrant and clear is his determination to become stronger than he ever has before, and only fate will be the judge, jury, or executioner of such ambitions.

The possessor of this talent has an increased speed of 20% which makes them slightly faster. They can cross distances quicker than others would expect and outrun others with little effort.

Mugen Mizuno was born into the world on March 17th, without ever knowing the comfort of his mother and father's faces. Abandoned since birth, Mugen was forced to grow up in the squallier of an orphanage located in the Land of Grass. Abused and neglected from day one, Mugen sought nothing more than to be free of his imprisonment within that sad little "home", and so at the age of five decided to flee to the village of Kusagakure. Bound to forge his own path in the world, Mugen did what he had to in order to survive the cold harsh tragedies that the world had in store. Quickly honing his skills in the way of a thief, he developed somewhat of a reputation with the people of the village, who grew to hate and despise him for being what he was. This in turn made Mugen very callused and devoid of human attachment, for how could they ever understand what he was going through in their perfect little worlds. It was during this time that he came in to possession of various scrolls containing the teachings of the martial arts style known as Copoeira, from which he conditioned his body everyday, self teaching himself in the style's disciplines. Continuing his training for several years more, Mugen slowly began to pick up on other technique utilized by the shinobi of Kusagakure, and even acquired a variety of shinobi gear in the process.

By the age of ten Mugen had grown into a formidable thief, capable of not only surviving on the street, but also holding his own in a fight or engagement. It was during this time that a mercenary group of shinobi emerged from within Kusagakure, known to all as The Band of Seven. These mercenaries arrived around one year prior, and since then had preyed upon the weaknesses of the village's economic standings as a way to extort and terrorize the people from within. One day the group performed a raid on a local town near Kusagakure in which Mugen just so happened to be visiting in order to map out his hunting grounds. Whether it was fate or destiny was still uncertain, but what was clear was the situation that was thrust upon him at the time. Before Mugen had a clue of what was going on, a member of the the organization made an attempt to take his life while in the heat of the moment during the raid. Acting on his natural will to survive, as well as his self training in the martial arts, Mugen managed to kill the member through the use of his Capoeira and various shinobi gear. The ground soaked with the blood of the enemy, Mugen stood victorious, although he was quickly surrounded by the other members of the group. Certain of his own demise at that point, all that was left to do was count the few precious seconds he had to live, as they all gazed upon the incident that had occurred.

Much to Mugen's surprise, their response to the situation was much less hostile than he had previously anticipated, meeting an assortment of laughter and grins as one of their own laid dead at his feet. For a moment, he could not wrap his head around what was happening, until a man by the name of Jin stepped forth and approached Mugen. Jin appeared to be the leader of the mercenary group, who congratulated Mugen on his kill, while at the same time extending an ultimatum offer to the young boy. Jin proposed the offer for Mugen to become a member of the Band of Seven to celebrate his newest accomplishment, though this in turn came as a double edge sword. If Mugen refused, he would be killed on sheer principle by the Band of Seven, ironically making the choice an easy decision for the young boy. Having agreed to be a part of their group, they made short work of gathering what they needed from the town before silently departing back to their headquarters back in Kusagakure.

Now officially the youngest member of the Band of Seven, Mugen quickly picked up on the inner workings of the group as a whole, strengths and weaknesses alike. He started off small, acting as an errand boy for the group, collecting overdue debts, meeting contacts, and acting as back up while undergoing deals was all part of his job description. As the years increase, so too did his his skills and duties towards the group as a whole. He was given more freedoms, as well as direct control over some sectors of the village and how they where run and organized. Though the group acted like terrorists, Mugen could not help be feel a sense of satisfaction with the power he held over the people that had always hated and despised him, which in turn made the entire experience worthwhile. Mugen also received various training in the way of the shinobi by the group's leader Jin, who had taken the boy under his wing and treated him as a younger brother. This training also included the famous Iaitō style, from which Jin had mastered from his previous sensei, before violently betraying him. Though this training made him an invaluable assent to the Band of Seven, they used him like a common thug to seek out their victims one by one. Though Mugen enjoyed the riches and power the group brought for him, he could not rest with the looming fact that he was nothing more than a puppet in the grand scheme of things. It was at that time the he plotted his betrayal of the Band of Seven, though it would not be in his nature to leave them without a going away present.

Now at the ripe age of fifteen, Mugen had all he could stomach with the travesties that had come about during those days. On the night of his escape, Mugen set the headquarters of the Band of Seven ablaze, before silently slipping away under the cover of darkness, never looking back on his humbled beginnings. Now officially a wanderer, he anticipated that it would only be a matter of time before the group found out of his betrayal, with their retribution following quickly behind. For several months Mugen found himself traveling from place to place, honing his skills as not only a thief, but as a shinobi as well. During his stay in Bear Country, he had learned of a mighty village by the name of Konohagakure no Sato, after eavesdropping on a conversation between two merchants. Figuring there was no better place to hide from his less than friendly pursuers from the Band of Seven, Mugen packed up what little he owned and made his way across the lands to the heavily forested area. It was hard to believe that such an place even existed, considering his somewhat isolated and tragic outlook upon the world, though like always he would learn to adapt and survive. Finally reaching the gates of Konohagakure, Mugen could not wait to see what scores laid ahead of him, but so long as he had money in his pocket and a blade at his side, he felt unstoppable for whatever fate had in store for him.

Another bright and vibrant day had cast itself over the lands of Konohagakure, as Mugen continued his glaring into the bright blue sky above. Not a single cloud dared to wield its face, while the moon was still visible in the sky from the night prior. There Mugen laid on the semi-damp, moss covered boulder in the center of the clearing of the Southern Forest. The forest itself was filled with excessively large trees which tipped upwards towards the heavens themselves, the likes of which Mugen had never seen before. Maybe it was due the plentiful amount of sunlight, though regardless Mugen couldn't care either way, for he only cared about one person and that was himself. His only reason for being in Konohagakure was to hide out and use the village as a shield from some less than friendly characters from the Band of Seven. Offering his services towards the village seemed to be the best method for protection at the time, but this was only a temporary option. If he ever wanted to be free to live his life once again, he would need be stronger than he ever was before. As such, there he lounged in the clearing of the Southern Forest from which he claimed as his training grounds.

Breaking his gaze from the skies overhead, Mugen shifted his sight from side to side as a way of surveying the clearing around him. The clearing spanned about about 100 meters in diameter, filled with a variety of tall grass, small bushes, and boulders scattered throughout the area. Taking a deep sigh, Mugen finally began to speak from in an annoyed tone to himself "Aww man, why do have to train on a nice day like this. Those damn weakling couldn't even beat me if they tried." The thoughts of all the members from the Band of Seven quickly began to flood throughout his mind, as he shuttered from the thought of Jin's power, the man who taught him everything he knew. Jin was the only man that Mugen had ever feared, and held a vicious method of dealing with any problems that presented themselves before him. Remembering back, his eyes where colder than his own and Mugen knew first hand just how cold Jin's retribution could be. Knowing all too well that Mugen was on his shit list, he had to do everything in his power to prevent such events from becoming a reality. Sitting up in a proper sitting position on the boulder, with his back strait and his legs crossed in between each other. Taking another deep breath in and out, Mugen then began to meditate of the new Taijutsu and Fuuinjutsu techniques that he had been developing for quite some time.
