Biography:

Born into the Jujutsu world as the firstborn son (out of six siblings) of the esteemed Shizuma Clan, Gēdo Shizuma was hailed as the prodigy of his clan’s current generation, being in possession of his clan’s treasured Inherited Technique, Cursed Black Flames, along with being blessed with an innate understanding of cursed energy in an advanced capacity. These flames are, as is in the name, black in coloration and are vastly stronger than common fire. This technique, however, is hardly passed down, with Gēdo being the first in several generations to possess the ability, along with his body’s composition being able to handle the flames. Most other members of the clan possess various, unrelated cursed techniques.

As such, he was trained from youth in the ways of his clan and how to utilize his technique, to the best of their knowledge of it. This wasn’t without its drawbacks, as Gēdo was immune to his flames, but it didn’t mean he had perfect control. Once, in his youth, he had set off an event which resulted in the destruction of an entire village when he ran off in a misguided attempt to fight and exorcise a cursed spirit. The incident, however, was cleared up by the Shizuma Clan as the fault of the cursed spirit, while Gēdo would be punished severely and forced into a Binding Vow in which if such an event occurred again by his own hands, he would be stripped of most of his cursed energy.

This tragedy would live with him for years on, as though he would grow stronger and gain much greater control of his technique and flames, the boy would be scarred and plagued by the knowledge that all it took was one slip up and he would lose everything he had built. Everything he was. For everything that Gēdo was blessed with, his cursed energy and power, he was shackled by the weight and pressures of his clan.

Personality:

Gēdo Shizuma, the blessed son and heir to the Shizuma Clan, exudes boundless energy and confidence at all times. He is kind and selfless, though not so bright, as he can be characterized as something of a dunce outside of his Jujutsu prowess, as he is regarded as a genius in his use of his cursed energy, output and technique. In fact, it has been stated by others that if he weren’t born into Jujutsu society, he’d be just that— a dunce in a normal school, coasting by. However, this doesn’t bother him, at least, not outwardly. Due to the events of his past and harsh training and upbringing in the years after, the reminder and such comments have done nothing short of building his suppressed doubts and fears of the repercussions of the Binding Vow looming over him.
