Heishi Otomaru

Heishi Otomaru (乙丸 平士 Otomaru Heishi) is one of the three selectable heroes in Nanami Shiranui's target group.

Appearance
Heishi has messy mauve hair and hazel eyes.

He is wearing the standard uniform but with some changes, such as a patterned tie. Although he still wears the black pants, slightly below the knee brown boots and a white polo which is inserted, showing his brown belt.

Personality
Heishi is an energetic and friendly guy who can be considered the mood maker of the team. He is often seen smiling and even if something upsetting happens, he is quick to switch gears. He possesses telepathy and when his emotions run high, he has a tendency to ‘leak’ out his thoughts to other people. Even if it isn’t in words, his feelings more or less pour out so he can hardly hide anything from the rest. Besides being able to ‘talk’ to many people at once, he’s also able to sense the basic emotions from other people.

History
When Heishi was still young, he was bad with using words to convey his feelings. Even though he didn’t say anything about his feelings, the people around him seems to notice his feelings due to his ability and it causes a lot of trouble for his family. It was still bearable when he was small but when he grew older, his parents got fed up with him and they abandoned him. He got adopted by some nomads and learnt how to play the Shinobue (Japanese transverse flute) in order to earn a living.

Ability
Heishi's ability is telepathy, although it is very unstable as his personal thoughts and feelings often leak out.
