☆BACKGROUND STORY☆

Benkei was born to his parents, Ugoki and Sakui Hotokegi on the morning of January 25th at the Heart Shrine Hospital. Ugoki is a retired shinobi who was once apart of the Intelligence Department and a former member of the Assassination Unit. Sakui is a civilian woman who was known as a thief that used frying pans as her fighting weapons and rebellious behavior for authority. Both Ugoki and Sakui had trying times as individuals (being on opposite sides of the law) and it was Benkei's birth that gave them hope to make amends for the mistakes that they've made in the past. In the early years of Benkei's life, Ugoki and Sakui had raised him in a home where there was warmth, love, understanding, and open communication. That way, Benkei would grow up and mature with a pure and clean mindset.

As a child, Benkei had a somewhat feminine appearance and it wasn't easy for him to be friends with boys in his own age group because of it. It wasn't until one day when he had met someone who had dealt with the same problems as he did and this gave Benkei hope that friendship was indeed something possible to have in life. Her name was Akiko Fujihara and she was a girl who was commonly mistaken for a boy because of her short hairstyle and tomboyish attitude. After they had met, Benkei was elated that he had made his first friend in his childhood, but it wasn't until soon after that he had fainted from realizing how pretty Akiko really was. Benkei's parents were glad that their son was slowly breaking out of his social shell, but Sakui feared that her son had inherited her old case of Arrhenphobia (fear of handsome men) or in this case, Caligynephobia (fear of pretty girls).

Even though he had made his first friend with Akiko, Benkei still hadn't made friends with any guys. He felt like he would never be able to make friends with a guy, but his older brother Tasshi Irezumi was always there with him. There was a five year difference between them, but Benkei had admired him for his kind-spirit and maturity and not only were they brothers, they quickly became friends as well. As they spent more time together, Benkei had discovered that both of them had shared the same interests in the arts (freestyle dancing and artistic drawing respectively) and he grown even more attached to Tasshi. Over the years, the two boys had gotten closer over time.

By the age of 9, Benkei's feminine like features had vanished and he now had the appearance of a normal boy. With his new found boyish looks, He was now looking forward to having a normal social life. The only two people he hung out with during the time were Akiko and Tasshi, which was more than enough for him. When he would spend time with his family, Benkei would either listen to his father tell stories about his pastimes as a shinobi or practice some fighting moves in the backyard with his mother. It was one evening that Benkei had a dream that he spoken with a mysterious silhouette, telling him to become a shinobi in order to live out his greatest adventures. The silhouette had turned out to be a astral projection of his late grandfather, Chikuma Hotokegi. In his dream, Chikuma had told Benkei all about the different contributions that the Hotokegi Ancestry had made to the Heart Shrine Village in their respective times. This had fascinated Benkei and since he already loved hearing shinobi stories from his Father, it drove him further into the direction of wanting to become a shinobi himself.

That following morning, Benkei had told his parents about the dream he had and made a solid declaration of wanting to be a shinobi. Proud that their son had wanted to live out an adventurous life, Ugoki and Sakui had took Benkei down to the Academy to register him as a student. He would have to wait an entire year before he would hear anything about being accepted or even start attending the Academy, so Benkei started doing some self-training to familiarize himself with some of the basics. At the age of 10, Benkei had gotten most of the basics down except for performing seals in a timely manner and his speed. It wasn't until one afternoon that Sakui had interrupted his training with news about the Academy.

Being the excited boy that he was, Benkei quickly rushed into the house and looked at the letter that his Father had been reading. Benkei was ecstatic when he found out that he had gotten into the Academy and that following evening, he and his parents went to the Katsumiki Festival to celebrate his first step in becoming a shinobi for the Heart Shrine Village. During the festival, his parents had told him about how each Hotokegi had a nickname that defined them as a person and a color that reflect their personality. Since his mother was “The Ivory Bandit” and his father as “The Garnet Fighter”, Benkei would call himself something that would represent his smarts and his love for the color pink. The Heart Shrine Village's “Pink Virtuoso” had made his breakthrough into the shinobi world.


☆PERSONALITY☆

When he was a young genin, Benkei was a shinobi who was very kind, gentle, and very friendly with the people within his age group. During this time however, he still had problems with talking with girls and he would blush from the sight of one very easily. But over time, he worked through those problems with the help of Akiko Fujihara and Tamiko Bando. He was also very dependable and strong-willed and very willing to help those in need before himself. During his Chūnin years, Benkei had matured to the point where his fear of pretty girls was completely gone. Thanks to Douchuu Nagano’s friendship and good influence, Benkei had become more outgoing, adventurous, and fun-loving to a fault. Even so, he is a bookworm and he always likes to brush up on his studies when he has free time to himself.

As a young adult however, Benkei had fully grown in more ways than one and not only was he one of the stronger shinobi in the village, he had also become one of the cutest guys in the village. Even more so, Benkei has also become slightly perverted (mainly around Tamiko) and teases his friends a lot with innuendos (a habit he picked up from Arioch Soushou). After the Crimson Order War, his personality had went under a change and he had developed a merciless side when it came down to taking missions and such. This was also caused when Benkei started to experience nightmares almost every night and it even lead him to start a small drinking habit when he would go out with his friends. Despite that, Benkei is still very kind to those who are close to him.

As a Jōnin sensei, Benkei strives hard on his students with his training. He wants to make sure that his students get the physical and mental training they will need if they were to ask for it. It is also stated that Benkei thinks of his students as his little prodigies (a pet name he had adopted up from Nazo Soushou) and he wants nothing but the best for them. However, there have been times where he would make training even more intense and be somewhat harsh and forceful, but he means no harm in doing so and believe that he is molding them for the shinobi world. At times, he will dote on his subordinates from time to time by treating them to lunch or dinner whenever they would do an good job with training. Also, he makes it very clear to his students to not hesitate if they ever needed to talk to him about training or personal problems.



☆APPEARANCE☆

Benkei has dark, sandy brown hair, natural beige skin, and cerise pink eyes – a hereditary trait that he inherited from his mother. Benkei wears a black sleeveless, zip up vest with the insignia of the village on it with a long sleeve mesh armor underneath it, long black gloves with the index and middle finger exposed, a pink scarf around his neck and a matching sash around his waist, white trousers with a kunai holster wrapped around his right thigh, and shinobi sandal boots.
