appearance

Kensaku stands at the height of 6'2. He doesn't look like much on his own; he's rather thin, he wears glasses, and his hair is carefully disorganized. He wears loose-fitting clothing, which varies depending on what activity he's engaged in at the time. If he's not on a mission or operating as a Jounin, he doesn't like to wear the vest. He favors a nice, comfortable black shirt with khaki BDU pants, and a blue coat over it., which he swaps with the vest of a Jounin when he needs it. He wears his headband on his forehead, where it can't interfere with his movement or vision at all. Under the loose clothes is the trained and lithe form of an Iwagakure Jounin, but his physical fitness is not readily apparent to a casual onlooker.

personality

Kenny loves a good puzzle, and he sees puzzles everywhere. He's not the most sociable person, because a lot of people don't like to be "solved". His constant mental exercise is great for his analytical skills; he breaks things down almost as a matter of habit. If you can stand his constant attempts at understanding everything, he's a good friend to have. His strategical knowledge is vast; strategy was one of the first things he immersed himself in as a Genin, and he still likes to learn more about it. He values his friends, few in number they may be, very highly. There are few things that he wouldn't do if one of his true friends needed him.

To a ninja from outside Iwa, on the other side of a conflict, the awkward, brilliant, friendly-in-his-own-way Kenny Kanada doesn't exist. All they see is what he lets them see, what he thinks will give him the upper hand. They see the Villain in Glasses. In a fight, Kensaku is a completely different person. He's cold, calculating, and ruthless. The march of spiders that he commands is a terrifying force, and to inflict a casualty on his unit is to invite disaster twofold upon your own. He can't predict the future, nor read minds, but he can use the knowledge he can gain to devastating effect.

Kenny isn't without weakness. The reason he tries to punish successful attacks on his comrades is that every single one of those casualties, he sees as his own mistake. Even if he isn't in command, he thinks of things that he could've done better, ways he could've acted that would have spared his fellow Iwa ninja from harm. He views every casualty as a personal failure, and each one wounds him like a knife to his chest. He doesn't take failure well at all.

biography

Kenny was born to a small family in Iwagakure. There was nothing about this family to separate it from the other ninja families; no special hidden techniques or genetic kekkei genkai. No patterns of outstanding talent that every generation followed. They lived, they trained, they worked. It was a good life, in spite of and because of its simplicity.

Of course, Kensaku Kanada was tested to see if he could enter the village's Academy, and, of course, he passed with average marks. He wasn't bad within his class; Kenny was a quick study. He loved to learn, and the thing he loved to learn the most was strategy. Tactics were the place he was gifted, and in order to play off of that he learned to use chakra to control puppets; that there was strength in numbers was obvious.

Humanoid puppetry, while not beyond his talents, was certainly not his greatest strength. When asked to design his own puppet, he assembled a large spider instead of the traditional humanoid. It was clanky and the venom barely made a person sneeze, but he still keeps that old spider up on a stand in his home, all the mechanisms since gutted and used to create others but the shell sitting there as a reminder of where he came from.

His skill in puppetry and tactics earned him the rank of 8th in his graduating class. Not the best, but certainly better than average. He was placed with a jounin and two other genin, and there he learned teamwork. He and his team worked like a well-oiled machine, the protection of their sensei keeping them out of harm's way until they took the chunin exams.

Those exams, where they were made to work together without the aid of their sensei, were where Kensaku first became the Villain in Glasses.

Kenny hadn't ever seen a plan of his fail so utterly as the one he tried to enact in the forest. Nobody died, thank God, but it was a close thing. The genin from Konoha saw through his strategy so completely, it was only his teammates' quick thinking that stopped them from failing the exam. Kensaku would've been able to salvage it, had he not been in shock over seeing his friend's broken arm.

The next round of the exam, the arena matches, was the Villain in Glasses' debut. It was an entirely different Kensaku; cold, calculating. A ruthless, heartless man, not the happy and awkward and optimistic Kenny that everyone from Iwa knew. The Villain took on the ninja from Konoha who broke his teammate's arm, and his spiders crushed both of the other genin's shins before the match was called. The second Kensaku left the battlefield, he was his normal self again.

The Villain in Glasses made a repeat appearance every time Kensaku had to deal with an opponent in combat, though he didn't brutally disassemble everyone he fought. That treatment was reserved for the person who had hurt his comrade. That restraint in his other matches was probably what let him pass; it made the first match appear clearly as the calculated statement that it was; don't mess with Iwagakure Team 4.

Kensaku went back to a normal routine after becoming a Chunin, making regular use of the Villain in Glasses persona whenever he came into contact with other ninja. His team still worked well together, and the member who'd been disqualified by a broken arm took the exam again next time and passed easily. Kensaku, for his part, became a Jounin, recognized for his skills in combat, reputation, and grasp of tactics and strategy. He hasn't yet taken on a team, though that may change in the near future. Currently, he strives to improve himself and to serve Iwagakure with distinction.
