Shinra (Fire Force)

How Shinra joined the Tourney
Shinra is a Second Class Fire Soldier who joined the Special Fire Force Company 8 to achieve his goal to save people and is determined to find out the cause of his family's death twelve years earlier. As a third generation case of Spontaneous Human Combustion, his Ignition Ability, nicknamed the Devil's Footprints (悪魔の足跡 Akuma no Ashiato), allows him to generate and unleash powerful continuous bursts of flames from his feet which in turn grants him the ability to fly in the air, augmenting the power of his kicks, and high-speed movements. His powers are further enhanced when the Adolla Burst awakened within him, able to move at the speed of light while momentarily dissolving his body, thus being revealed as the Fourth of the Eight Pillars that the Evangelist seeks and making him a fourth generation as well. Shinra suffers from a condition known as nervous laughter, which caused him to grin during tense or fearful situations which in turn makes him look menacing, but as of recent has begun to show control over it.

After stopping a fire to qualify for the second Tourney, Shinra finds a broken ninja-like blade on the ground. He suspects the assassin Karl Ruprect Kroenen to be responsible for the fire that killed his family.
