[ Character's Name ] : Shinra Kishitani
[ Character's Age ] : 24
[ Series ] : Durarara!!
[ Canon Point ] : past ep. 24 of the anime/end of vol. 08 of the light novels - after an attack at the hands of Adabashi Kisuke and his men rendered the doctor battered and unconscious in his apartment, he awoke in a place far from Ikebukuro...

[ History ] :
Shinra grew up with a fairy and a man in a gas mask.

[ Personality ] :
While not entirely apparent from his reclusive lifestyle, Shinra has no trouble keeping up a conversation - especially if the subject at hand is a certain dullahan. He has a talent for rambling on about his love for Celty Sturluson for hours on end, much to the annoyance of those forced to hear him out. A talented doctor and a generally cheery guy, he likes to greet life with a smile on his face and an overused idiom waiting up the sleeves of his trademark white lab coat. 

Shinra can give off a strange wavelength to people who don't know him well; between his fascination with the supernatural and woefully cheesy perspective on his relationship with Celty, his take on the world is far from what you'd call normal. His obsessions often manifest in...unusual ways, as he spends an unhealthy portion of his time either peeping on Celty in the shower or begging Shizuo to agree to experiments to test his strength. He can be blunt at times and treats his work with the utmost seriousness, garnering a widespread reputation as a good doctor, unlicensed or otherwise. Of course, like anyone else with ties to Ikebukuro's underworld, his relationships with men like Shiki and his lengthy friendship with Izaya Orihara leave a dark shadow across his character.

Shinra can have a bit of a jealousy complex: in his mind, the entire male population of earth is competing with him for Celty's affections, and he doesn't intend to lose under any circumstances. His desires often outweigh his conscience, and while he tries to avoid violating the hippocratic oath he never took, he really has no boundary he won't overstep when it comes to Celty, a fact that could make him as dangerous as Izaya or Shizuo under the wrong circumstances.

While he considers himself "bad as bad can be," Shinra is more than willing to put his and others' lives on the line for the people he loves, and his sense of pride and dedication make him a highly respected doctor, license or otherwise. Be it a broken heart or a bullet through a lung, Shinra will relentlessly fulfill what he considers his duty, and crack a joke or two while he's at it.

[ Strengths/Weaknesses ] :
Strengths: Shinra can mend most minor injuries on the spot, and has an extensive medical repertoire that can be tapped into if the right resources are available.
Weaknesses: While he does carry a scalpel on his person and isn't afraid to use it as a weapon should the need arise, he isn't trained or extremely skilled in combat.

[ Other Important Facts ] :
Shinra's outfit of choice is a standard white lab coat over a dress shirt, slacks, and a tie. He keeps the lab coat on even when he isn't working.

He's been in love with Celty for 20 years and counting.

Among treatments of scores of Yakuza and Shizuo's consistent injuries, Shinra has also notably performed a vivisection on Celty at the age of four and given Mika Harima plastic surgery to resemble the dullahan's lost face.

[ Sample ] : here and here!
