Weathered. He looks like he’s used to travel and long nights, possibly overworked.

He seeks to impress the heck out of his sensei. That’s almost certainly shorthand for a deep drive to understand and master the powers and secrets of his school.
6. WHO IS THE PERSON YOUR CHARACTER TRUSTS MOST IN THE WORLD?
His sensei. But after that, the magistrate he’s assigned to. He’s taken him as a new, better father. Ryo has been enamored with his sense of duty and skill at management.

Attachment to his task, even if it might violate his duties in other areas. He would see his own greatest weakness as his inexperience.

Nope.

Whoever he is currently working for.

Favorite? He’d tell you really good floral rice, but honestly he can’t tear himself away from reading and studying. Least favorite is bullshit. He’s got no time for that. And spiders. Those things are just unnatural.
14. DOES YOUR CHARACTER HAVE ANY RECURRING MANNERISMS?
He stares. He’ll talk to you. Staring into your eyes. Can’t break it. Really unnerving. He’s desperately trying to read the soul through their eyes, but he’s just completely misunderstood his advanced lessons on reading deception. He’ll catch on that it’s a metaphor someday.
15. WHAT ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER’S EMOTIONS?
He’ll laugh at the corniest jokes. Very upbeat and happy, a really good humor about things. He has a hard time getting angry. Don’t harm kids or kittens or puppies, there’s a line here.
16. HOW WOULD YOUR CHARACTER HANDLE A SUBORDINATE’S IMPROPER BEHAVIOR?

Golden child, he was definitely the smart one. Also his older brother liked swords WAY too much. How gauche.

Understanding the inner nature of man. This means about 10,000 things to him right now.
