Canon: Mortal Kombat 1 ('Current Timeline' MK)
Age: 29
Birthday/Zodiac Sign: He has no canon birthday, but I feel like he's a Capricorn, so I'm going with January 4th
Height: 6'1
Gender: Male
Build: Muscular, very athletic, though a little on the leaner side
Physical features: Extensive Yakuza tattoos, which he generally prefers to keep covered but can be seen on the backs of his hands. While we aren't shown the extent of the tattoos in canon, I tend to go with him having nagasode hikae (full sleeves and some chest) and his back tattooed.
Kenshi also has no eyes and some scarring around his eyelids/eyesockets, though he still has functioning eyelids.
From his Wiki, since it sums up his whole deal nicely:
Despite his blindness, Kenshi possesses heightened senses beyond their normal ability and can fight on par with any other kombatant. Kenshi wields an ancestral sword called Sento that contains the spirits of warriors from his family line, and these spirits, in turn, guide him in combat. He can sense an opponent's presence by their energy or by hearing them, and thus can take opponents by surprise. His senses are so acute, he is capable of sensing beings capable of hiding from well-trained assassins such as Sub-Zero and can even sense beings sealed in objects, such as Shinnok, who was trapped in his own amulet that leads to a dark dimension. His sense of sight is revealed to be spiritual in nature, meaning that he can sense the souls of living beings. Also, due to his blindness, he is completely immune to attacks that would target one's sense of sight.
