 The DNA Altering Toxin as it is known in long form was an experimental drug created with goals along a similar line of APTX. However, being created by the Section... It was somewhat sketchier.

One of the more terrifying aspects of the Section was their idea of punishment and their willingness to experiment on their own; those there were imprisoned more or less by fear, internal explosives, and threats... Threats that were carried out without hesitation and threats that were far more dire than death itself.

Those in the Section typically shared an apartment like room; Gin was no different, and he shared with one of the Coworkers to Tenshi 'Rioja' Matsuda... Namely the agent 'Shochu'. Shochu and Rioja were both a part of the project of the DNA Toxin; however, shortly after a few samples were completed, events came about that incarcerated Shochu.

The punishment was this; judgement by sample. If she died? Then she died? If something happened? Research. If nothing happened?

Nothing happened. And so it was... But in actuality, the time it took for the poison to take effect was curiously long; and in fact, when the poison took effect, it was the closest thing to immortality the section had discovered.

And they didn't even realize it.

The poison created a sort of cancer within the body, extending the number of times cells could divide to the point of total regeneration whilst creating a separate species of DNA within the body, one which, if allowed, would take over entirely. Though easily pushed back due to the memories and persona of the original, this would nonetheless have the effect of bringing new instincts, to the point of altering minor personality traits if caught off guard. The second species could be anything; typically a living, existing beast, but limited only by imagination before it was 'decided' by the body and poison both.

Koji, who got his dose when Rioja spiked his drink with the flavourless and textureless drug, would be heavily caught off guard by the sudden addition of a White Tiger.

As such, there are a few pros and cons to list on the side effects for him; for while the poison allows freeform shifting between the two, he doesn't quite have the grasp on it that Conan would eventually get.

So!
 
PROSCONS
Free-form shifting at will.Tends to partially shift out of shock.
Heightened senses (scent/sound/night vision).Vulnerable sensitivity to scent/sound/sudden light.

For those curious by the way, Conan got a giant bird that no longer exists. It was kinda the apex predator at the time though.

 'Koji' as he's called appears fairly different from Gin. This is what happens when you move from being in your mid thirties to the size of a ten year old.

Exactly how did he get there though? Essentially, once upon a time in his world there was a section of the Organization that seemed to defy  the typical rule of criminal rings; how did it 'defy' the rule you may ask?

When it seemed that they would potentially break off from the org two years after Conan came into being, they were not simply destroyed. Evidently their resources and powers were somehow too vital; and while Gin would mentally question that, he was sent nonetheless with the intent to mole out their plans for the future.

Before he had done so much as step foot on the island that their facilities were located he was 'caught' by the section's top man. In return for continuing to remain loyal- something they had intended from the start- Gin was to stay there.

Permanently.

Whichhhhh led to 1 and a half years dealing with people who evidently thought the best thing in the world was movie night or karaoke after a day of experimenting in what mind as well have been fringe science before being shrunk down after a vat- yes, a vat- of chemicals relating to APTX collapsed through the roof of the room he was in at the time.

Which lead to... One and a half MORE years on the island, pretending to be a former co-worker's nephew since... She'd apparently had the brilliant idea to declare him dead! ...As well as remind him what the section would do if he hadn't apparently dissolved into goo instead.

After those three years on an island, said coworker would plot to have him, along with her own daughter, escape the island proper. Part of this involved poisoning him with another experimental drug with... Interesting side effects that would later end up in Conan's possession of well. (Though not by his hand, he'll have you know!)

Maybe those three years made him grow 'soft'. Maybe it was the poison. He has a life debt to Conan though, thanks to the fact that he actually had a relative in the org, a relative that was with him when the vat collapsed. A relative who he believed did not make it. A relative that was married to the coworker that saved HIM, making the life-debt required by this point anyways!

As it is. Conan had no cure by grade 5. And after the second poison, there COULD be no cure. But despite all that, they seem to be doing alright... Mostly.

He's on 'neutral ground' with the Organization as he would explain to Ai and Conan (once they realized that Koji being miniaturized and the like meant he was just as screwed as they were at least). He's not about to rat out to Conan where everything is; they're more rivals if anything other than mortal enemies. At the same time, he's not about to support what will kill HIM on sight at that. Events of the fanfic lead to only one 'real' tie to the Organization after all...

And he'd rather eat glass than team up with Vermouth right now.
