Name: Nara Shiō, Kage Gekai (Shadow Surgeon)
Age | Gender: 22 | Female
Alliance: Pending
Rank: Chunnin
Clan: Nara
Kekkei Genkai: None
Traits: Shiō possesses impeccable control over her chakra, coupling well with her intelligence. Like her brother, she lacks physical strength, but does have an understanding of close range combat and is highly agile. She has a relatively skilled sensor with natural sensory range much greater than her brother.

Appearance: Shiō is similar in appearance to her brother. Despite three years his junior, she is often mistaken as his twin - the only key difference being her blue eyes. She stands at about 5'8" with dark brown hair typically typed back in a practical singular ponytail. Her attire varies, but coloring tends to fair on the dark side of things. For formal events outside of her work, she prefers a dark grey kimono with silver-blue trimming and a petal motif at the bottom. For more practical events, she has multi-pocketed canvas jackets ranging a variety of colors. For pants, she consistently is seen in a dark, charcoal grey.

History: Shiō began her training as a medical shinobi at the age of ten having had an interest in medicine all her life. Touzoku, the mother of her brother's best friend, and a skilled medical shinobi, took her under her wing and began training her in the field. She devoured everything she could readily, using her clan techniques as a practice for her chakra control. When she began learning Shosen and Chakura no Mesu, she was able to quickly develop rudimentary versions of them at an early age; these would be skills she would carry into her later years.

Shiō was the only member of her immediately family not to work in logistics during the war. A trained medical shinobi, Shiō was responsible for providing medical services for the resistance, along with the others trained in the medical arts. It was the closest any from her family got to the 'front' of the conflict - and largely why they remained in tact. Her sensei, Touzoku, took a position in the field, leaving her apprentice in one of the bases of operation for the resistance. The parting was tough for both, with Touzoku telling her how proud she was of Shiō.

Shiō's effort was very much a learn as you go experience. With those trained in medical arts getting in rarer supply, Shiō had a significant amount of autonomy. She completed her first surgery by herself a week into her joining the resistance, which resulted in the death of the young man she was trying to save. She would go on to lose four other patients in her tenure with the resistance, one shortly after the death of the first. Frustrated with her inexperience, she spent much of her time out of surgeries to study what information that she had available.

Outside study, however, was limited almost strictly to surgical techniques. The nature of the resistance dictated that she would be largely unable to explore much about medicine, creating a gap in her knowledge on the subject matters of immunology, toxicology, and other fields. For the most part, her development as a medical was solely on the techniques she knew going into the experience. Those techniques have become some of her most refined over the course of continued use and practice.

When her ability as a sensor was uncovered, she was given additional duties to ensure that their base of operations remained secret by scouting the surrounding areas with her sensory abilities. It proved to be an unnecessary precaution, as their base was never uncovered, but she got to witness deaths even when she wasn't in surgery - their chakra vanishing permanently.

She was extremely isolated during this time. Her only companion was a messenger falcon she called Hiyō, who ferried messages for her to and from her family. They had developed a complex code in the event he was ever intercepted, but Hiyō was reliable for her, managing to avoid capture the entire time. Hiyō became her confidant, even when he wasn't carrying messages, and often perched himself on medical stands when she was in surgery. She considers him a good luck token considering she hasn't lost a single patient since she adopted the practice of being Hiyō with her. It was around this time that she began experimenting with usages of her Hiden in surgery, leading her to develop her ability to preform surgery in pitch black, using her Hiden for extra 'hands' during her procedure. This allowed her to move quick enough during surgeries to save patients she might not have been able to save before.

The case that haunts her the most is the case of Suukei, her sensei's son, and her brother's best friend. During one of the final efforts to reclaim Konoha, Suukei was brought in. He had mutilated his own eyes, destroying them completely. He was left to bleed to death before being brought in. Unable to save him, Shiō watched him die in front of her with his blood covering her body. She said nothing of Suukei's death to her brother and kept it a secret, telling only Hiyō.

When they managed to retake Konohagakure, Shiō was hesitant to return. She spent the first month after the retaking of Konoha in the various outlying lands, providing what medical services she could. Returning to Konoha meant that she would have to see the remnants of the families she had failed to save.

She currently serves as a surgeon for the village of Konohagakure, having been given the nickname "Kage Gekai" by her colleagues, given her preference to preform surgeries in pitch black.

Personality: Shiō is intelligent, but often blames herself for things outside of her control. She does not accept failure well and will obsess over the failure until she reaches the conclusion that it was outside of her control - she still reviews two of her cases from the conflict on a regular basis in order to figure out what she did wrong. She keeps meticulous records, having patient files far more expansive than many of her colleagues. She enjoys learning and wants to expand her knowledge into other realms of medicine.

Custom Jutsu List
Jutsu Name: Kage no Te (Shadow Hands)
Jutsu Type: Ninjutsu (Hiden)
Effective Range: Variable (depends on volume of her shadow and the amount of natural shadow)
Nature Type: N/A
Descriptions: Kage no Te is a combination Hiden and 'medical technique' developed by Shiō to assist her during surgeries, but does have offensive applications. Similar in practice to Kage Yose (Shadow Gathering), Kage no Te is use to grip tangible objects. At short range, Shiō is capable of using this without focusing entirely on the technique, allowing her to use her hands freely. When extending anywhere outside of three feet around her, she must concentrate solely on the technique, but it can be used to grip objects outside of the three feet bounds.
Drawbacks: Cannot be used to pierce flesh or grip anything outside particular bounds without focusing entirely on the technique.

Jutsu Name: Kage Yochi (Shadow Prediction)
Jutsu Type: Ninjutsu (Hiden)
Effective Range: N/A
Nature Type: N/A
Descriptions: Kage Yochi was an unnamed technique developed by Shiō to allow her to see in the dark as if it were normally lit. Many Resistance operations were done at night, making medical triage in darkness a necessity. The technique was given the name by a patient who woke up startled after medical procedure and lunged at her with a kunai, which she subsequently avoided, even while tending to his leg wounds. Surprised she avoided the attack, he asked if she could see the future. She merely explained to him that she was trained not to get hit and that she could see in the pitch black.
Drawbacks: Offers nothing other than seeing in the dark. Drains chakra when activated.

---

Weaponry: Shiō's utilizes a number of poisoned senbon in combat, opting for them instead of shuriken. However, Shiō's senbon are made from part of her brother's Daiō shuriken, allowing them to be embedded into shadows to pin down an opponent. She also carries around an umbrella with a black canopy with silver-grey kanji adorning it, the handle and support structure is made of a darkly stained cherrywood. Umbrella is special in that the shadow cast from it is infused with her chakra, allowing her to manipulate its volume as well. Because of her chakra, it is a bit more resilient to basic weaponry than a standard umbrella. She typically uses paralytic toxin, that in enough quantities will paralyze an opponent. She does carry syringes of this toxin as well.
Misc: When she isn't reading medical books, she spends a lot of her spare time playing a reed pipe. She has a messenger falcon that she bonded with during the conflict that she has adopted as a pet, which she keeps along with her two cats.

Name: Shisen Inuzuka
Age/Gender: 12 Years and Female
Alliance: Konoha
Rank: Genin
Clan: Inuzuka
Kekei Genkai: None
Traits: The Inuzuka clan tend to have a more feral appearance with red distinguished cheek markings that set them apart. As well as their sharpened senses and their canine companion, they are often very agile and are inseparable once given their Niken. Able to track targets by sending chakra to their nose to heighten their smell even more they are able to detect and monitor their target as well.

Appearance:
Shisen


Arashi
History:
Shisen was born into the Inuzuka clan, although her clan was not as powerful or desirable like the Uchiha or the Senju, but they were still a clan of moderate wealth. Her parents Kenshi and Tēru Inuzuka were not like most of their clan, they were reclusive and had no interest in the getting involved with politics, still living on the manner but in a small cottage like home closer to the woods. At the beginning of Sai's reign, the two were forced to decide which they would side with and chose the resistance, neither were very social but they offered a great deal of help to those who asked.

Many successful missions happened due to their almost flawless tracking abilities through scent, many more would have happened if her mother had not became pregnant with Shisen, but with pregnancy came the paranoia. Her mother feared that the resistance would prove to be to dangerous for their child to endure, in which her parents agreed that for the better of their future child, they had to leave the resistance but it was easier said than done. The resistance was not happy with their decision to leave them, they tried countless times to change their mind and even went so low to threaten them. The only way to be able to leave was to make them think that they had died, so they staged their false death and made their escape.

Shisen was born ten months later, in the same small cottage near the woods and was born with the same brown hair as her mother and the mystifying eyes of her father, at the time the three were happy living the way they were. It was only when Shisen turned five that problems arose, her home was broke into and her father captured by some of Sai's army as he was recognized by someone even after he was careful to stay out of heavily crowded areas. They caught Shisen and her mother, holding them captive in front of her father as one of them killed his Niken before beating Kenshi, severely injuring him. The questioning began, they would fire questions and expect answers but her father would say nothing to them not even a threat.

They realized that, he was too strong to break with mere threats and beatings, his weakness was in his family. So while both her mother and her father were pinned down, Shisen was grabbed, a knife to her little five year old throat and more questions were asked, unable to bare seeing his daughter in danger and the potential that they would kill her, he caved. Answering their questions but very skillfully lying about the answers, it seemed to satisfy the savages and they dropped Shisen to the ground, releasing her parents as well. Her mother ran to her in tears and scooped her up off the ground, kissing her forehead and telling her how brave she was.

Kenshi decided that it was time his daughter received her Niken because she would need someone to trust and believe if something happened to them. They went to their clan kennels the next day and pointed out potential Niken but Shisen was only interested in one. This half wolf half domesticated Niken was very hard to be around, always snapping and growling at those who walked by but no matter how much the Niken snapped, Shisen was determined to have her. She even named her on the first day, Arashi, ironically enough there was a Storm on that very day. Kenshi seemed wary of Shisens choice but respected her choice enough to let it play out and encouraged her to earn the Nikens trust.

Several weeks passed as the two spent time together little by little, it was a Sunday when the ones who broke into their home returned angered by finding out the lies that Kenshi told them and would have any mercy. As punishment, Shisens mother was killed right in front of them and Shisen would have been next if Arashi had not attacked them, chasing them off but not before they killed Kenshi. Shisen screamed and sobbed as she clung to Arashi who licked her, whining and making noises of comfort. Shisen was found later but her Niken snarled and growled scaring those who wished to help off, Shisen didn't warn any help.

At this time she was nearly six and Arashi was the only one she would trust and she was the only one that Arashi would allow to touch her. Finally giving in, Shisen agreed to live with another Inuzuka in order to keep with their clans ways but she hardly said a word, the loss of her parents had greatly changed her.

The years passed by with little to no outside contact, it was only when Sai's Reign ended that she decided to make herself known to others and attended the Academy with the other potential Genin. She didn't make any friends really, too quiet and reclusive as she only wanted her Niken as a friend, but she never slacked off in her work. Determined to graduate no matter the cost, no one knows why she wanted to become a Genin but she showed great interest for it. She would even speak to those in her house about school and what she was learning which was what they wanted to begin with, a chance for her to reconnect with others her age.

Personality:
Shisen was once a very social and intelligent child, being observant and bright minded was a blessing for her but that all went away after the death of her parents. Her once full of potential self now turned to a sad and sorrowful child, questioning the fact that maybe she could have been stronger. Unlike the children her age that were playful and happy, she was angry and remorseful. She could only trust Arashi, she could only be friends with her Niken as they suffered the same and would only be able to understand each other more than anyone else. No one else would be able to feel the pain that they did, when someone insulted her she would only stare at them as if they said nothing at all, some even called emotionless but that was far from the case, she felt every emotion more deeply than anyone could know.

Eventually her observant self slowly resurfaced, making her more tuned to the emotions of others and she easily picked up on small things, noticing the details that many over looked. At home she would cry and sob over the fact that she felt so alone, so utterly alone. Although she never exhibited such emotion in public, always in her home and away from the prying eyes of those who said they wanted to help.

Combat Style: Shisen prefers up close and personal combat rather than at a distance using her clans Jutsu's.

Name: Jhino Uzahara
Age | Gender: 24 | Male
Height | Weight: 5'6 | 162 lbs
Alliance: Himself, Konohagakure
Rank: Chunin
Clan: Uchiha
Kekkei Genkai: Sharingan (Supressed)
Traits: High Chakra Reserves, High Combat Aptitude
Appearance

Description: Jhino is short for his age but he is very strong. He was often teased for being small, however he should not be underestimated. His small size allows him to be swifter and more agile then most.

History

Jhino one of the last born right as Sai made his take over. He was only a child back then but he was present for the slaughter of his clan. His father was an Uchiha Jonin while his Mother was of Chunin skill level and also Uchiha, making him pureblood. His father and mother were killed under Sai's orders, Jhino was also supposed to die that day but he managed to survive. Men came to his house in the night butchered his parents a drove a blade into the 5 year olds chest, but this did not kill him. Afterwards they set fire to the house. Jhino, though injured, managed to make it out in time showing his will to survive. After the men had gone his uncle found him and took him away into hiding.

Jhino lived in hiding for year with his uncle and other clansmen before they were found. His uncle was a known associate of the resistance which made him a target no matter where they went so it was only a matter of time. However this time there was a battle and not just a massacre. But Sai's men proved to be to strong. In a last ditch effort, Jhino's uncle used his sharingan to place a genjutsu on his nephew. The genjutsu changed his point of view and took away his ability to love. In theory this would suppress his sharingan and allow Jhino to live without being hunted. The Genjutsu also wiped his memories clean. He would remember nothing.

When Jhino awoke he was in an orphanage had no idea how he had gotten there or where he had come from. They gave him the name Jhino Uzahara, a prophet in the "old book". Jhino grew up in this monastery like orphanage where many children lived. The war and purge left a lot of children without parents and guidance. This caused Jhino to deter and go down a different path. For the most part he studied at worked at the orphanage but in his free time he ran the streets. If there was one thing he could do it was beat kids twice his size. He was a strong fighter and showed little care towards his target. On several occasions he had nearly beaten kids to death. After realizing his own potential he decided to join the academy at the age of 16.

Because of his age and natural advantage over the other students he excelled through the academy and graduated a year later learning the basic skills necessary to advanced. He was noted for his high taijutsu combat aptitude. He eventually began to learn about the affinities that ninja were once able to use. Past jutsu that were once legendary. He began to develop his own techniques using one of the these legends, Katon (Fire). One thing that he learned even as a child is that knowledge is power, thus he strove to learn as much as he could through reading books and occasionally interrogating the elderly. He learned of ninja who incorporated these elements to increase the power and effectiveness of their taijutsu. This art was known as Nintaijutsu. He began to build off this style making his fighting unique only to himself.

Years passed as the young Genin trained to hone his skills. He took the chunin exam at the age of 20 and barely escaped with his life. His team killed. Once more he showed his will to survive by stringing to his last chunk of life left. He would avenge his teammates. After intense training he retried the test the next year. A new person he surpassed his previous attempts by a landslide and earned his chunin title. He attained vengeance by killing the person who killed his teammates. Soon after however, his sensei disappeared. He has been running solo missions ever since hoping to earn a place in Anbu.[/quote]

Personality

As a child, Jhino was kind hearted and was against fighting though he was good at it. He would always fight with his cousins which earned him some skill. Even after Sai killed his parents he bared no hatred towards him. He hated the world that he was born into.

Jhino awoke into a world with no one who knew him. He felt loneliness and a great deal of sorrow. His only outlet being violence he began to enjoy it more and more, often using it to get what he wants. He only acts in the interests of himself however he takes his job very seriously. That makes him an ideal soldier being able to carry out orders without hesitation especially if killing is involved. This whole vicar however is hidden behind his helmet and silence. He only speaks when absolutely necessary. Very few have seen what is hidden behind his helmet.

History. Utaka is the second son of the youngest brother in the Tsukino Trade Coalition. His family gained prosperity during the Reign of Sai and made their fortune off of the opened trade routes that were available due to the lack of borders at the time. With the fall of the Sai Regime, the Tsukino Trade Coalition lost a large portion of its power, but also gained animosity in most local areas as their business once had monopolized some places. Born to the youngest brother, Utaka had nowhere near the fortune or prestige of his cousins as his father received the lighter end of the business due to his age, as was custom. It was well known that his branch of the coalition was essentially 'dead weight' to the rest of it.

Even though his portion of the trade coalition was weaker and smaller, it still impacted local businesses. Disgruntled competitors ultimately ambushed Utaka and his family, threatening to kill them if they did not cease their trade. His father, knowing that it would be poor for the image of the coalition if he allowed himself to be bullied, refused any cessation, resulting in the small mob beginning to beat him and his family. His father and mother were killed and as he saw his older brother being beaten, Utaka went into a fit of rage and used a technique that is still an enigma to this day. The technique was activated by a fit of rage and closely mirrored the Antlion Ninja Art: Ephemeral. Utaka lost his parents that day and his brother was paralyzed from the waist down, but change did not end there.

The technique imbued Utaka with an immense amount of chakra - enough for a lifetime of jutsu in just a few minutes - and almost killed him killed him because of it. After quickly burning through those of immediate threat, Utaka passed out and the crowd that had formed actually sought out help as the only two alive were children. Utaka lived, but he was changed. He could absorb chakra and more over his chakra network had been altered. The exact alterations to his chakra network were seemingly trivial, as inspected by a Hyuuga using the Byakugan that stated the changes to his body are only in position; he has the same number of chakra points, merely in different places. Even still, Utaka was considered a medical anomaly.

Taking on the new name Kino as it was a term of endearment from his brother, he lived with his aunt and uncle for the remaining duration of the Sai Regime. Once the regime fell, his uncle attempted to force him into the Shinobi Academy to get him out of the house, to which Kino initially refused. His refusal resulted in he and his brother being kicked out of the household, and forced them to live on the streets. Kino spent months begging for food, holding up signs, doing any work he could, and doing twice as much to feed him and his disabled brother. Ultimately, Kino knew he could not do it alone and returned to his uncle, asking him to take his brother back if he went to the Shinobi Academy. Agreeing was reluctant, as his uncle truly just wanted rid of them, but empathy towards his youngest brother and his disabled nephew was strong enough to persuade him.

This led to Kino being put in the first classes of the new Shinobi Academy, and doing impressively well in them. Kino caught onto jutsu quick and was easily able-bodied enough to keep up with taijutsu and Shinobi weaponry. It was learned here that his altered chakra network gave him an advantage in chakra control; where it took some students weeks to climb trees, it only took Kino minutes to walk on water. Kino was not the strongest of his age, but his agility was able to match even the Uchiha in his class, and he excelled with a weapon few shinobi use: the bow. Kino was not only a very skilled archer, he could use chakra flow to guide arrows, and had the ability to shoot down kunai mid-air, all before graduating.

His success in class actually brought pride to his uncle, whom went out of his way to then provide him with adequate gear. A new suit in his size, meant to make the most out of his agility. A bracer with a seal inscription that can summon a bow as if it were a scroll. All the arrows and kunai he could need for practice, and of course hidden quivers. His uncle would never admit it, but he was proud of Kino and wished one of his children could have been a shinobi. Despite that, Kino still has a great resentment towards the man, and believes he is only trying to make Kino into an icon for his business. Kino ultimately graduated near the top of his class with most of his peers knowing his name, and most knowing he had no history with the shinobi world.

Kino spent his first few days as a genin in a hectic mess. Originally placed under a chuunin for specialized training, Kino found himself jealous of those placed onto the team with Kirugetsu Hozuki, a war veteran. However, with the almost all of Division B mysteriously wiped out a team restructure led to Kino being placed right where he wanted: on Team Moon, under Kirugetsu. With that news going to his brother and through him, his uncle, Kino was granted a new set of sealed bows and a new gauntlet. As always, Kino believed it was merely to endorse his uncle's new arms manufacturing.

Personality. Kino is cynical and generally quite self-centered. Losing his parents and providing for his brother showed him at an early age that the world is evil, and people don't help. His brother is the only person he generally cares for, and he rarely sees him now. Kino is not necessarily proud of his accomplishments as he never truly wanted to be a Shinobi. Kino is artistic, and can paint and draw quite well. He was forced out of a life of art for the life of a shinobi, and still hates the fact. Kino is often brooding and quiet, but is not outwardly aggressive.

Nature Release: Unknown element, shape transformation
Traits. Abnormal chakra network, Can absorb chakra, Resistance to Genjutsu (via abnormal chakra network)
Combat Style: Although Tsukino is not weak at close range, he by far excels using his bow and weaponry. He is relatively fast and agile as well as adequately skilled with the ninjutsu he has learned. Tsukino is also capable of absorbing chakra and at this point can through weapons and clothing, meaning what he lacks in strength can be made up for. Lastly, his altered chakra network makes him resistant to certain jutsu, such as targeted jutsu and genjutsu.

Jutsu List: All academy jutsu.

Body Flicker Technique
Shadow Clone

Jutsu Name: Guided Arrow
Jutsu Type: Offensive
Effective Range: Mid, Long
Nature Type: Chakra Control
Descriptions: Kino launches an arrow imbued with his chakra, allowing it to waver mid air to better hone in on a target. The added chakra also gives it slightly superior penetration power.
Drawbacks: Repeated use can be taxing and the honing ability is only applicable to a few centimeters.

Jutsu Name: Ten-no-Ya
Jutsu Type: Offensive
Effective Range: Mid
Nature Type: Shape transformation
Descriptions: Kino pours his chakra into his bow, then creates a single arrow made of chakra to fire. With no weight, this arrow is fired at incredibly fast speeds, but is only viable for roughly twenty meters. The arrow has great penetrating power, and after its initial penetration into flesh, it hits a chakra network to shut down nearby chakra points.
Drawbacks: This jutsu is significantly draining if used repeatedly and is only effective at a mid-range distance, in comparison to even regular arrows.

Weaponry: A bow that is sealed inside his protective gauntlet. If broken, he can reseal it and summon a new one from the same stash. He has three quivers on his body with different arrows, ranging from smokescreens to poisons. He also has a utility belt with several items, such as nets, wires and smokescreens with two pouches containing kunai. Lastly, he carries one sword on his back beside his largest quiver and a small tanto on his hip beside his second quiver. The third quiver is located on the opposite side of his body as the one on his hip and is angled forward.

Kino now wears an upgraded version of his gauntlet augmented with multiple bows that can be summoned via seals. Each bow has strengths and weaknesses to them, but sealed away to give Kino more flexibility in combat:

• Hand-carved Bow This is the default bow Kino uses and was carried over from the first gauntlet. It is a long-bow made of finely-carved wood made dense, yet light by the senju.


• Bladed-Bow This bow is a significantly shorter bow equipped with bladed edges on its top and bottom. This bow is meant for tight corners and close-range combat, but is otherwise made of the same wood as the original bow.


• Chakra Bow This bow has a metallic core and a wooden frame made from the wood used to test chakra natures and the metal used to conduct chakra. It is not strung, instead requiring that its user channel chakra to create a chakra thread for a bowstring. When in use, this bow glows a dim blue around its wooden frame and amplifies the channeling of all chakra-related abilities into it.


• Compound Bow This bow has a set of three pullies and a specialized bowstring that can withstand inhuman tensions. In terms of raw physics, this bow can output an incredible amount of force into a single arrow, resulting in a highly devastating shot. This bow is also bulkier and heavier than the other bows, making it less applicable in tight spaces or for repeated use. (Kino cannot use this yet.)


• Red Death This is bow is a compound cross-bow with two overlaying sets of strings and a sixth set to act as a stabilizer using chakra. The entire bow is comprised of metal and requires a tremendous amount of strength to pull back, beyond that of an even above-average adult. It also is incredibly heavy and inaccurate if not used in conjunction with chakra, as the two overlaying bowstrings cause conflicting tension that must be stabilized mid-flight. The bow is called the Red Death based of the literal metric tons of force it can put onto an arrow (regular arrows would shatter, thus requiring larger arrows of a denser material) and the red cross airs used to aim the beast. This bow was originally made to be a compact ballista and was made into a weapon for Kino. (Kino cannot use this yet.)

Seiga was the only daughter born to a pair of refugees who sought safety in Konohagakure after the rise and fall of Sai the Conquerer. While she's lived most of her life in poverty, she's also received a great amount of knowledge from her parents that sets her apart from other, similarly aged shinobi. Her upbringing was harsh and strict, but her parents took good care with raising her to be the great ninja that they never got the chance to be. Her mother trained her in Taijutsu, putting her in a brutal daily regime that pushed her body to her limits even at the young age of five, while her father worked wonders on her mind with his specialized hypnosis. They both pooled their knowledge into the girl, knowing full well that ninja would be tremendously important in the coming years, and with their ruthless tutoring they forged a daughter that was already a capable kunoichi by the age of ten.

This was when her parents died, Seiga herself isn't aware of what happened, but they were slain by one of the smouldering remnants of Sai's terrible reign. When she reached the ninja academy, she was living on her own and without anybody to care for her. She kept with her parent's training regime despite her new found freedom, clinging desperately to the last semblance of love they had left for her, eventually graduating from the academy and becoming a genin with nothing but sheer force of will. Now, she still lives on her own, but she's begun to reach out to others for the love and praise she seeks, by diligently helping others in the village and doing as many missions as possible, she's managed to earn the respect of a few others in the village.

Hypnosis: Gate of Opening
Type:
Genjutsu/Taijutsu
Range:
Self
Nature:
N/A
Description:
A secret technique to achieve the opening of one of the eight gates through careful training of the body combined with a specialized type of hypnosis. While it takes a short while to induce fully, once activated the user effectively opens the first gate, the Gate of Opening. Because it is primarily an ability that affects the user's mind, its difficulty and effectiveness is relative to their mental state rather than physical capabilities, and while it does put strain on the body, it only requires basic physical conditioning to withstand. There are no longer any shinobi out there who know this technique, the only reason Seiga is able to induce it on herself is because the hypnosis was planted into her mind while her parents were still alive. They took their secret to the grave, so there is no way for her to improve upon or alter the parameters of the technique, limiting her to a minute of opening once or twice a day.

Chakra Surge
Type:
Taijutsu
Range:
Close
Nature:
N/A
Description:
A technique that involves the explosive release of chakra from particular points in the user's body, usually the hands or feet. By directing this burst of chakra, the user can greatly enhance the effectiveness of their taijutsu, adding additional penetration and stopping power, as well as a bit of range. Because it relies on the natural flow of power, adequate momentum and strength is required to use this effectively, making it worthless in when fighting in cramped conditions or when heavily fatigued.

Hiding in (the) Shadows
Type:
Ninjutsu
Range:
Self
Nature:
N/A
Description:
A simple stealth technique once used by elite assassins of the Hidden Leaf to hide from all watching eyes, this technique allows the user to merge themselves into the surrounding shadows to become virtually unseen. They remain detectable via chakra sensing, but other traces of their presence will be erased entirely, allowing them to hide even in plain sight so long as there are nearby shadows. Countered by removing the shadows which the user hides in, and while they may seem to fade into nothingness, they are still entirely vulnerable to attack.

Hypnosis: Shadow Leaf Vortex
Type:
Genjutsu/Taijutsu
Range:
Close
Nature:
N/A
Description:
A hypnotic fighting technique triggered by seeing the user prepare a special feint, causes the feint to appear real and creates the illusion of being attacked. In the instant the enemy's attention to directed to the illusionary attack, the user has an ample moment to maneuver or attack completely unseen by the enemy. Can be seen through if expected, but because of the inconspicuous initiation it is more than capable of catching wary opponents off guard, especially if mixed with non-illusionary attacks.

Traits: uses Jûken while fighting



History: Maruki was born in the year Sai started his reign. In fear of Sai his parents moved to a small cabin hidden in the woods of the land of fire, close to Konoha. As soon as he was able to stand on his own two feet his Parents teached him all he needed to know to live off the land. Teached him which plants were edible and which were not. They teached him how to swim. Before they left on what would be their last mission they teached Maruki how to mold his chakra, how to use his Byakugan and how to use the Gentle Fist Taijutsu technique. As well as the basics of some Eight Trigram Techniques.

And then they left. Maruki was ten years old at that time and was already quite skilled for his age, given all the personal training he received from his parents. He kept training with Jūken and the Byakugan. From time to time he met travellers while he was fishing in the river or finding some food. He learned a lot from them. One of those things were how to utilize the Byakugan and making his own jutsu’s based on stories he heard of examples of these jutsu’s which he tried to copy. He learned Eight Trigrams Sixteen Palms from his parents and heard there were also 64 or even 128 palm versions.

Another thing was that his parents were no longer alive. Maruki’s parents last mission was to aid in the war against Sai after some years of training together with a lot of other shinobi. The fight lasted long and although their byakugan was a useful asset in battle it was not enough to save their lives, before they reached Sai they were killed by some of his henchmen. However their efforts were not unrewarded as other the shinobi who fought alongside them succeeded in killing Sai and thus ending his reign. Maruki reached the age of thirteen at that time.

Maruki knew his parents would be looking down at him from the high heavens and vowed to make them proud. For the next year Maruki dedicated all his time to his training and a developed technique similar to Hakkeshō Kaiten as well as some other techniques who looked more like the originals. At the age of fourteen he left the little cabin in the woods, hid it and left for Konoha to attend the Academy to become a full-fledged Shinobi. He was taking in by his uncle after proving that he Indeed was Hyūga Maruki. Now that he is done with his education at the Academy and passed with flying colors he will be placed in a team with other shinobi who passed with good grades.

【Personality】

Shira is (or, at least, was), at her heart, a free spirit who wants nothing but to spread her wings and drink in the entire world at her own pace. Even from her youngest days, Shira was adventurous and curious and adamant in her own little ways, always yearning to do whatever she wanted at the expense of everything else. It was more of a chore than a request to get a four year old Shira to do anything - she would eat only when she wanted to, drink only when she wanted to, and generally refuse to do anything that did not suit her at that specific moment in time. It is said that those who live their lives in the present are the most content, for they have no reason to regret the past or anticipate the future - and for a young Shira, this was definitely true.

Like all things in Shira’s life, however, destiny had plans far different to any she could possibly have anticipated. As Shira reached the age of eight, she began her training in the arts of War (or at least, the arts of Flag bearing) under strict tutelage from the Warbringers. The sudden insertion of discipline into a free spirit’s life was a shock to Shira’s system, and for the first few weeks of her training she rebelled extensively against her tutors - resulting in several disciplinary punishments that she remembers less-than-fondly, and are often recalled with a grimace whenever they happen to bring themselves to the front of her mind.

The first time that her freedom was imposed was something of a wake-up call to Shira, who, not knowing what else to do, gave her total and utter obedience to her masters. That began the descent down a slippery slope into an area of gray morals and questionable decisions. As Shira progressed with her training, she found herself more and more often deferring to her superiors without ever questioning the reasoning for their commands. Of course, they were almost exclusively for her own good, but it was not something that should ever have been instilled in a child. By the age of thirteen, Shira was a soldier proper (at least in terms of personality - her skills in battle were practically nonexistent) and she would obey her superiors unquestioningly to the point of dependence.

After the war, Shira ended up in a difficult position: The thrill of war had been liberating enough to give her a taste of the freedom that she had once owned so proudly - and it had clashed immensely with the conditioning that she had embraced. Even to the current day, Shira is torn between two very distinct sides to her personality - total obedience, and complete rebellion. The two exist in a dissonant harmony that threaten to disrupt the already weakened balance of Shira’s fragile psyche, but with each day she feels herself becoming less obedient and more conscious of the world around her. They say that the greatest tragedy is being left with only enough to remember what you left. Shira was left with enough freedom only to understand how much she’d lost, and the worst part of all is that her obedience still thinks it was the right thing to have been done to her.

Shira’s adaptation to daily life initially went very roughly due to the war that rages on inside herself - she was lost without the guidance of a superior, but simultaneously yearned for the independence that she had earned as a Warbringer of the Hataga clan. The war within herself was, as per usual for Shira, romanticised to the extent that despite the fact she longs to fit entirely within a single side of her multifaceted personality, she cannot for the war is something she half treasures, and half expects to die in.





【History】

The Hataga clan have existed since time immemorial, stewards of the ancient dynasty of war that undoubtedly ravishes every land under the sun. As Kings are to their country, the Hataga are to war, and it has been by their hand that wars have been won and lost for ages. As even the Hataga know all too well, history is written by the victor and the rush of victory obfuscates facts that should be brought to light, and though their positions in all major wars have been crucial, they have not always won. The books written by the Hataga clan have taught generations of aspiring warriors how to fight and, more importantly, how to win - and though their record is, too, stained by loss the perception of their status and authority on the art of war has not shifted in hundreds of years.

Initially founded by Hataga Bushin, the clan was originally one devoted strictly to the arts of the sword and nothing more, accepting all into its creed regardless of their previous status or their current status. The only requirement to join the Hataga clan was, and to some extent still is, the desire to perfect the art of the sword. Initially, the clan could never have been called as such - it was little more than a dojo led by a man who dreamed of a family that he could mould into perfect warriors, but as the days went on and the wheels of fate turned in their slow, pendulous motions the appeal and status of the clan increased until their following was by all means sizeable enough to rival that of the other major families of the time.

Of course, the machinations of political intrigue do not respect any laws but those that they themselves have instated; The way of the blade is one of utmost purity, having no way to deal with blades that it cannot see, or blades that exist only in the minds of those that wield them. With each subtle move that the nobles made, the strength of the Hataga clan declined - first the taxation of the humble compound Bushin had built was increased to levels that he could not afford, and then his goods were embargoed to ensure that none would trade with him. Each passing day resulted in people leaving the clan to return to an easier life, without the hardships that came with the disfavour of the nobility, and Bushin's dream began to crumble around him.

They say that in times of great need, a great warrior is born to lead the people to their salvation and right the atrocities of those that deign to abuse their power. Whether or not this is true is, as all things are, up for debate - but for this instance, the metaphorical birth of Bushin was as real as it could be, and he brought up arms against those that had wronged him. The weak may have left his clan, but the strongest warriors of the Hataga clan had persisted in their efforts and rallied behind Bushin, rising up to overthrow the rich families that had taken from them their peace. In times like these, resolve is as valuable a resource as steel, and while the Hataga were undoubtedly great warriors, their numbers were small and their reach was stunted. Only with the resolve of War did they stand a chance, and so did the clan first turn a battle into a War. At first, the ideals of the War were noble, even glorified and romanticised, but the horrors that inevitably followed were enough to turn all but the staunchest of hearts black. Fortunately, the only Hataga left were the strongest of them all, and the noble ideals of the War were upheld by each member to their dying breath.

When only twenty of the Hataga were left, the war was won and the nobles had been executed for their crimes and branded enemies of the people. The only crimes they committed were against the Hataga, in truth, but the temptation to obfuscate the true course of history within a delicate veil of lies is often too much to resist for those few who have survived. With their first victory, the Hataga clan grew once more, and turned much of the world to the way of the sword, and to the way of honour that came with battles and indeed war: an ideal that despite their best efforts could not be shaken. The Hataga clan had what it wanted - a legacy - but it had been written in blood and altered to fit the times, and while the Warbringers that were left could choose to forget, the people that had endured the war could not. The memories of the people outlived the memories of the Warbringers, and the clan's image and purpose became one strictly devoted to war over the centuries that followed.

At this point, seven of the last twenty were given honour above all others for their varying contributions to the war and labeled Warbringers, the most venerated of the Hataga clan. At this point, lineage in the Hataga clan would begin to matter, and the effects of this act are still felt throughout the entire history of the clan. The remaining thirteen were, of course, venerated - but the acts that they engaged in were not as iconic and easily rewardable as those of the seven Warbringers, and they would eventually become what could be thought of as the “lower” caste of the Hataga clan, though they were still integral.

First, there was Bujin, the first Warbringer, Head of the Clan and Master of the Sword.
Second, there was Kamikasu, Master of Treatises and Manuscripts.
Third, there was Toshokan, Master of the Library.
Fourth, there was Kamabushi, Master of the Forge.
Fifth, there was Ōkune, Master of Siegecraft.
Sixth, there was Kōjō, Master of Diplomacy.
And finally there was Areshiki, the Flag Bearer.

From this point, it is said that the Samurai branched off from the Hataga clan, disgracing the name and resolving to keep to the ideals of the sword and the sword alone. Whether there is any truth to this statement cannot rightfully be known, but the Hataga claim it to be true, and even to this day they are yet to forgive any who call themselves Samurai. As the Hataga clan's image turned to war, so too did the remainder of its purer ideals, and after but a few short generations after Bushin's passing, the clan had expanded enough and grown powerful enough to teach the world the true meaning of war. From here the clan proceeded to monopolise the ideals of war, starting and ending them as if they claimed sovereignty to all blood shed beneath the sun, and the land both rejoiced and wept for evils were purged and good men were slaughtered; all things remained in a careful balance that only the Hataga clan could provide.

As the days grew closer to those we can remember, to those that have been recorded more faithfully and accurately, the Hataga clan's influence has waned significantly. In a world that was forged by war and has evolved beyond it, the source of its life is discarded as its people no longer have need of it. The delicate scales of fate have rested upon a precarious balance for long enough that they dare not be tipped, and all mortals turn from acts that can skew so delicate a state to one side or another. There are acts beyond even war, however, that can alter the delicate balance of the world - and when such things happen, fate's stewards will turn to the archaic arts that have long been forgotten in order to restore their balance in a cycle of their own. The wheels of fate ever turn, causing the losses of one age to be the saviours of another, and just as fate needs stewards so too does the Art of War - and for that purpose, the Hataga persisted.

The days of Sai the Conqueror brought need of the Hataga back to the world, and return to the world in the flaming chariot of war they did. Initially, the Hataga fought for Sai's cause - the stagnant peace that the world had lulled into was due to be changed by the coming of strife, as if war were a season, and like a force of nature they helped usher it in. Sai was little but a means to an end, as individuals tend to be in the grand scheme of things, and as he charged through the land in a tempest of conflict he set in motion events that would lead to his downfall - something the Hataga, too, would partake in. Unfortunately for the stewards of war, the machinations of which they could confidently call themselves integral to were but bits and pieces of even larger schemes, and the wheel turned for them too, bringing them almost to extinction. It is in these events that the history of one Hataga, Shira begins.

~

Hataga, Shira was born into a destiny that she had never had any hope of changing - all too often the fate of heroes - but this tale is not one of heroism. Shira was born into the lower echelons of a dying clan, to a mother and father that loved her even more than the war that the Hataga clan prized so fiercely. Shira's parents were the last of a long lineage, supposedly descended from one of the original Warbringers of the clan, but they were not fortunate enough to have been descended from a Warbringer whose skill with the pen or the sword was the stuff of legend - the Warbringer they were descended from had carried the flag of the Hataga into countless battles and, despite all odds, survived every single one. The position of Warbringer, in the early days of the clan, was much easier to earn than it had been for any year that had followed, and though it was practically meaningless in the current climate of a clan who were facing extinction, Shira's parents were proud of their heritage nonetheless.

Like all children born into the Hataga clan, Shira was set onto a path that she would walk for the rest of her life, raised on a discipline that would define her from the beginning of her days to their end. Unlike the other children born into the Hataga clan, her discipline was one that was useless given the clan's already low numbers: Flag bearer. Shira was to take on the responsibility of the Warbringer from whom she was descended, and though her parents told her it was an immeasurable honour to spare her feelings, they knew that she had seen right through them. Even so, Shira persisted in her efforts to stick to the manuscripts that had been written, and in her most formative years she became surprisingly adept at the arts she had been chosen for. It was comforting insofar as knowing that she was doing the best she could, but it was not enough to be bearing flags in a clan that had been a major force for war in every large-scale battle in history.

Until the age of fifteen, Shira's life was nothing short of dull. Each day she would enter the Institute of War, where each of the manuscripts that had been written were kept, and read a new book. After reading, she practiced any techniques that were necessary - though none of them were designed for combat in any way - and she spent the evenings with her mother and father, meditating and practicing the most basic of sword techniques. It was an unfulfilling life, even with the boundless knowledge of war that the Hataga clan could offer, and each day spent in it made the young Shira even more dissatisfied with what her life was turning out to be. The thirst for greatness was strong within her, but there was nary a drop to drink in the vast ocean that surrounded her. Each day she felt more and more alone, and she had considered giving up her duties entirely when the first truly exciting thing she would ever experience happened: War.

The reign of Sai the Conqueror was beginning to crumble beneath him, and the resistance had launched all out attacks. For a clan that was supposedly loyal to Sai during his coup and neutral during his regime, the impending war would almost certainly mean extinction regardless of which side they fought on unless underhanded tactics were used to give one side a definitive advantage - and it was in this that the remaining Warbringers of the Hataga clan doomed themselves to extinction. For hundreds upon thousands of years the Hataga clan had stuck soundly to its principles when war was about to emerge, and the decision to betray everything that the clan held dear split the clan into two halves - one loyal to their virtues, and one desperate to survive by any means. Shira's parents were desperate to survive, to leave their meagre holdings and hide from the war with Shira so she could grow up in a mundane life and maybe make a family of her own.

Shira chose to stand with those loyal to their virtues, and went to war like the manuscripts that she had so carefully studied told her to.

The result of the various battles and skirmishes grew more and more grim each time they occurred, until only a small contingent of around fifteen members were left alive. Bujin, the leader of the clan, and the wielder of the first Unmei no Chikara Prior to fighting, Shira had said her last words to whatever deities may have been listening. She had lived an uneventful life, and had been destined for little other than decoration, but she had ended up embroiled in the harsh caress of war and it was to be her undoing. Strangely, she had felt nothing but a sense of pride as she recited the famous last words of the clan, words that had been uttered by every member before every battle since the dawn of the clan:

"May all those who preside over war be my vanguard."

It seemed that for her, it would be a warrior's death, and even if only in spirit she could feel the very essence of her ancestors there with her in that moment. The clarity provided by accepting death as a peaceful inevitability is unlike any other, for it comes with the realisation that that epiphany will be your last - and the concept of finality is powerful in all of its forms, be it to inspire or to crush the spirit. The power given to Shira by her epiphany was particularly great, and as she charged into battle with the two family members she had left she was completely at peace. Death would be a warm welcome, for death in battle was - to the Hataga clan - the purest death. Unfortunately for Shira, death did not come.

Shira was entrusted to keep the Warglaive of Areshiki at the very beginning of the war, and she wielded it with pride among the remaining Warbringers of the clan, and though she personally killed very few with the glaive, it kept her alive on more than one occasion, as if it had a mind of its own and was watching over her. It was a scarring experience, to have actually been involved in war, but the scars that covered her mind and body were not those of regret but those of unadulterated pleasure. The thrill of battle was something Shira had been trained to romanticise and worship since the moment she entered the world, and above all else she was a dutiful member of her clan. It was only natural for her to thrive in the heat of the moment.

Shira remembers very little past this turn of events, except waking up once the war was over. Her body was battered, bruised, and scarred - but she had survived the war, much to her surprise (and initially dismay). Since the war, Shira has been afflicted with a form of PTSD, having flashbacks of the conflict in her dreams at night. It left her with a stutter and a heavy limp that required the use of crutches for a long while, and it was only through gaining purpose in life that her symptoms alleviated themselves. After the liberation of Sai's regime, Shira found herself struggling with life. She had no purpose left in the world: It was unlikely her parents survived the war, and even if they did, she had abandoned them and everything they stood for. They were as good as dead to her, and she was as good as dead to them. Most of the remaining members of the clan that were loyal to the Hataga wanted nothing to do with the Warbringer that held the flag and had only one battle under their belt. Having nowhere else to go, Shira turned to Konohagakure, applying to the Ninja Academy there to bring honour to the memory of her clan and to the remaining Warbringers. She would never be a hero like the manuscripts described, but with the collapse of peace she may well be seeing more war in the near future - a prospect that despite her better judgement excites her beyond compare.

Now, Shira's life was about one thing, and one thing only, trying to continue in the only way she knew how: Following the path put out before her.

Name of Weapon or Item: Unmei no Chikara [The Power of Fate]
Location: Shira
Owner: Shira
Rank: B

Description: One of the seven ancestral warglaives of the Hataga clan, handed down in warfare over the years. According to the last manuscripts of the Warbringers of the Clan, each Unmei no Chikara has selected its wielder over the course of history, guiding them into and out of battles that have been historically significant - and that their allegiance is as capricious and fickle as the nature of war itself, choosing their wielders by their displays of valour and prowess in battle. Like so many swords of legend, Unmei no Chikara are also said to have a taste for blood, and that if the wielder is bested in a duel of pure skill its allegiance will shift to the victor, turning on former allies as quickly as it makes them.

Initially, there was only one Warglaive, that Bushin himself had forged from scratch - but as the need for war grew, Bushin commissioned Kamabushi, the fourth Warbringer, to create identical weapons for each of the Warbringers based on a design that had been brought to him by Kamikasu, the second Warbringer. For each war that was fought from that day on, the clan would be recognisable by its use of the Glaives that were passed down along the lines of the Warbringers.

There are legends that at least one of the Unmei no Chikara has shaped almost every major battle in history, turning the tide with its mere presence and inspiring soldiers to fight against overwhelming odds - only to lend them victory and write history’s course in blood. The validity of these rumours is certainly debatable, but questions are rarely asked due to the imposing visage held by Unmei no Chikara and by association any who wield one. The Warglaive is, if the pictures in the manuscripts are to be believed, largely variable: Its various wielders are shown holding it in identical poses despite having different statures, and the glaive always matches its wielder perfectly. The length and details on the blade are always identical down to the various nicks and chips, and while some details are obscured by the dark splotches of blood that seem to be attracted to the lustrous metal, even close scrutiny reveals that the details remain practically identical, except for the barely recognisable kanji that depict the name of the original Warbringer.

The legends that recount Unmei no Chikara’s power vary between authors, though it is generally agreed upon that the glaive is exceptionally dangerous and that it is the metaphorical equivalent of an unstoppable force - often seen piercing staunch defences practically effortlessly and continuing through to strike its opponent, as if the glaive has a thirst for blood that cannot be stopped by the hands of mere mortals. The descriptions written in the manuscripts seem almost designed to mislead and confuse any who would gaze upon their pages, as if they are describing a concept more than actually recounting the abilities of the ancestral glaives.

In grim actuality, the weapon’s prowess is not nearly so monstrous as the manuscripts would have a person believe, but they are worthy of the praise that they garner by members of the Hataga clan, and even the reluctant praise that comes from their enemies. The glaive is a conduit for chakra, much like the way that the Chakra Flow technique imbues a weapon with additional power, but the glaive keeps the power internally, using it from within to not only sharpen the edge of the blade to unrealistic sharpness, but also to echo the force out from the blade when it strikes, effectively extending the Glaive’s reach, or imbuing it with other power. The Glaive’s specialty is breaking through defences, and its immense cutting power ensures that even the most stoic of defences cannot remain solid under its onslaught. Immensely skilled users of the weapon find that the force of the Glaive’s strikes become something they can control very intimately. This ability in particular is usually perceived to be an ability of the Glaive’s itself, but in actuality it requires the keen insights that skilled war veterans possess to be useful.

All-in-all, while the Glaive possesses power that cannot be denied, its true nature has long been obfuscated by the murky depths of allegory, and has been anthropomorphised as an incarnation of War itself by the Hataga clan. Few things about the weapon can truly be certain, but its affinity for war is a truth that can not be denied.

【Other Specialties】

Shira has no real specialties, but is extremely disciplined and is an exceptionally good student in the mental sense.
Shira is moderately skilled at Kenjutsu.
Shira is not particularly adept at Ninjutsu.
Shira has no affinity for Genjutsu.
Shira has a surprisingly high level of chakra control, despite her ineptitude at Ninjutsu and Genjutsu, but cannot use it without a conduit (i.e., Unmei no Chikara).
Shira possesses moderately high chakra reserves for someone her age and rank, but cannot use it without a conduit (i.e., Unmei no Chikara).
Shira's endurance is good, but constant use of the heavy Unmei no Chikara tires her somewhat quickly.



【Kekkei Genkai】

Name: Sensō no Kurushimi [Throes of War]
Type: Sensory
Clan (If Applicable): Hataga

Description: The Hataga clan’s penchant for war has bred into its members an extension of the senses that encompasses a spherical area around them similar to the area accessed by the Hyuuga clan in the Hakke Rokujūyon Shō [Eight-Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms]. The sphere acts as a magnifier for the user’s senses, increasing their sharpness when sensing anything within the sphere, and allowing them to detect normally invisible units if they enter the sphere. There are two main portions to the Sensō no Kurushimi: A passive sensory ability, and an activated ability. For younger, more inexperienced members, the sphere only spans 10 feet in radius, but increases with age to twenty feet at the most.

The passive ability gives the user a sense that allows them to see and feel the flow of battle. The users are able to sense moving objects that are coming towards them and react without an active thought process, as well as giving them the ability to sense fast moving objects or people within their sphere of influence at all points. The sense must develop with the user, and it will initially be clumsy and difficult to use properly - but adequate time in battle, or simulating battle, allow the user to develop the sense more accurately until it becomes extremely potent.

The active ability allows the user to reduce the range of their senses to the range of the aura, cutting them off completely from the world outside of their sphere, but increasing the intensity of their senses vastly while in the sphere. While this section of the Kekkei Genkai is active, the user senses the world around them as if it were slowed down in increasing extremes, to the point where masters of the ability are said to be able to slice the wick of a lit candle and keep the flame intact atop their weapon. The additional, passive sense is much stronger within the small aura, and various clan manuscripts depict the most masterful users fighting off slews of opponents simultaneously, effortlessly dodging all attacks that come towards them. The active ability has limits, however, and can only be used for up to fifteen seconds at a time until the user gains experience with it through continued practice or meditation. After activating the state, novice users must rest for sixty seconds in combat, or ten seconds out of combat. Masters of the Kekkei Genkai are able to enter into the state at will and sustain it for long periods while only requiring short reprieves.



【Canon Jutsu】

【Custom Jutsu】

Name of Technique: Suiryoku no Sensō [War Thrust]
Type of Jutsu: Kenjutsu
Rank: D
Range: Variable
Nature Type: N/A
Handseals: N/A

Description: The wielder of Unmei no Chikara thrusts forwards with the glaive, using chakra to empower the kinetic energy of the strike vastly. If the strike hits a target, Unmei no Chikara is empowered and gains a coating similar to the visual effects of Chakra Flow, but significantly more intense and stationary. This effect lasts for up to six seconds. If Suiryoku no Sensō is used again in this state and hits target, the user gains the ability to use Tarashi-Kyūzō [Warstorm Surge] for the next ten seconds. Each time Suiryoku no Sensō hits a target, Unmei no Chikara is empowered, stacking up to three times.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Technique: Hakushi Jōtai [Blank Slate]
Type of Jutsu: Kenjutsu
Rank: E
Range: Passive
Nature Type: N/A

Description: The wielder of Unmei no Chikara cannot unlock power that they are not ready for, causing all abilities of the glaive to be negated unless an appropriate jutsu is present on the character.

Weakness: N/A

Name of Technique: Chikara no Hankyō [Echo of Force]
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: C
Range: Variable
Nature Type: N/A
Handseals: N/A

Description: Whenever Unmei no Chikara is empowered with chakra, Chikara no Hankyō can be used. Chikara no Hankyō allows the user to extend the chakra from the glaive outwards, allowing it to accomplish varying effects:

The chakra can be tuned to push chakra that has not been inside Unmei no Chikara away, allowing it to effectively cleave through certain jutsu or disrupt anything that has a specific chakra flow. This effect only applies to C-Rank and below levels of Chakra, and costs additional chakra to use each time it is utilised.

The chakra can be converted into additional kinetic energy, allowing the user to extend the reach of Unmei no Chikara or create cuts beneath the surface of the body when Unmei no Chikara strikes it (this is particularly effective at cutting through armour).

Chikara no Hankyō cannot be used while Tochi Shōkō is active.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Technique: Tochi Shōkō [Lull of the Land]
Type of Jutsu: Ninkenjutsu
Rank: C
Range: Variable
Nature Type: N/A
Handseals: N/A

Description: Unmei no Chikara gains a coating of chakra identical to that of the Chakra Flow technique, but the chakra surrounding the blade effectively increases the length of the blade by one foot. The chakra that comprises Tochi Shōkō is not tangible until the user wills it, but cannot be made tangible if it would be made tangible within five feet of a human target.

Tochi Shōkō cannot be used within three seconds of the activation of Chikara no Hankyō.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Technique: Tarashi-Kyūzō [Warstorm Surge]
Type of Jutsu: Kenjutsu
Rank: B
Range: Variable
Nature Type: N/A
Handseals: N/A

Description: The wielder of Unmei no Chikara slashes downwards with a vastly empowered strike, creating a visible trail of chakra from the tip of the weapon. The downwards strike is exceptionally strong at breaking through blocks or other defences, and can easily break weapons. The damage it deals to other people is less significant, however. If the strike connects, the user may lunge forwards with the glaive for the next three seconds. If it passes through the trail of chakra, the lunge’s power and speed is doubled. If the lunge hits an opponent, a wave of force is released from the glaive which will knock anything it encounters back. The chakra cost of Tarashi-Kyūzō is reduced by 15% for each stack of empowerment that Unmei no Chikara has, but consumes all stacks upon use.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name: Taiho Suzuna

Alliance: Konohagakure
Rank: Current generation Genin.

Kekkei Genkai: Magnet Release [Lightning and Earth]

Traits:

• Spatial Reasoning - Keen skill to geometrically analyze a specific space and make split-second deductions in order to process and predict information. Naturally, the eye can perceive information and naturally makes 10 second deductions on, based on space, direction, movement and sensation what will naturally happen. Taiho has a higher capacity for this completely natural ability and can greatly predict direction, position, and movement. As long as it is not beyond his ability to perceive, he is more capable of deducing an outcome of something moving through a spatial field and projecting where its path will take it. With this unique ability, it is far easier for Taiho to predict the path of a Kunai, even with their fast rate of movement, or to analyze the oncoming strike of an opponent. It is due to making complex, nano-second calculations constantly to produce valid information quicker that his ability to analyze motion is far superior to an ordinary human.

Appearance: Link

History:
The recovery from the war was a heavy toll on Taiho’s entire family. It started first with Taiho’s grandfather, Seriyu Suzuna, whom was a devout warrior for the great Daiymo Sai. He was such a proud man that he even offered up his first born, Seriyaku, to be a willful instrument for Sai and his glorious innovations for the future. Seriyu was a gifted ninja with origins that dated back to the great Sand Village long ago. He held a nature release that was unique to himself and rare upon the battlefield and, with his great power, he killed many all for the glorious and righteous Sai!

It wasn’t a surprised that, in the great battle in Amegakure, that Seriyu, quite aged, was present. He lasted quite a while, however he was actually bested due the collateral destruction of one of Sai’s attacks. It was said that, before the attack, Seriyu conjured up a monstrous, devastating Iron Dragon that tore through the ranks of the enemy and consumed just about every attack that was tossed at it. After that battle he was known by the survivors as the Iron Dragon.

Seriyaku, a man that did not hold such an affinity for ninjutsu, was also there in that battle. However, when the numbers of his allies fell, despite Sai’s strength remaining, he fled for his life. He had a woman and child and he was sure to bring them with him. Seriyaku regretted that action for the entirety of his life. He was one of the men that was unlucky enough to be branded with Sai’s curse mark. Although it gave him strength, it was a permanent mark, which he had no ability to hide, that inevitably caused him trouble every place he went. It wasn’t long before, in hiding, the hunters tracked him down and killed him and his woman in front of the child. They, out of some act of sympathy, spared the child.

Taiho only vaguely remembers his grandfather and the few times he did meet that man they were typically violent and abusive. Seiyu was violent towards his son, Taiho’s mother, and Taiho all the same. His father was not. His father was stern and hardly affectionate, but he never hit Taiho or Taiho’s mother. He did care for them both, even if he was terrible at showing it. Taiho’s mother, whom was constantly busy, hardly had time for the boy too and when the three of them all went on the run there was hardly anytime for rearing the kid at all.

Taiho’s personality, or lack thereof, demonstrated itself early and, as he matured some, he became a boy that was unfettered by most things. When his father or mother had to kill someone that had been tracking them Taiho wouldn’t flinch. He didn’t even cry with both his parents were killed right before his eyes. He was left with nothing and was taken to some foreign land in which he was added to the orphan population. He didn’t associate with anyone there, nor did he think that he was anything like them. He hardly would speak, would always do as he was told, and spent almost all his free time staring out the nearest window. Not many cared for Taiho. Although he was spared, many constantly questioned why. Why was he allowed to live when Sai and his men killed so many? Taiho’s linage wasn’t hidden. Most shun him or disrespect him or outright detest him, however he’d maintained his neutral persona as to not let it bother him, no matter how aggravated his harassers can be. Even those scorned enough to physically attack him aren't’ enough to really incite malice out of the boy. He always picks himself up and just continues on with his day as if it were the most normal thing in the world.

It was recently, when he became of age, that he decided that he would be a ninja. He saw Genin from out his window and realized that they had wages and some independence. They also had a little respect and maybe, just maybe, deep down in himself, to which he was unaware, he yearned for that respect too.

However, he looked at becoming a ninja as some means that he could use in order to stand on his own two legs and he was unafraid of any dangerous associated with the position. It was a stable pay, so long as you didn’t die, and the work wasn’t always strenuous and one could learn a great deal of useful skills in training. He held experience in the area from his upbringing with his father and grandfather. He’d never been taught the techniques by them, and hardly even knew his grandfather enough to say he learned anything about ninjutsu from the man. Being on the run, watching others die, predicting enemy movements and seeing brutal fight after brutal fight was his everyday life as a child.

It was simply going to be a job for him.
As such, he started training. He was favored by one of the academy teachers who helped him with extra lessons. His name was Tataki Shurimi and he claimed up and down that Taiho was a spitting image of Tataki’s dead little brother. As such, he taught Taiho about some ninjutsu beyond the D-Rank techniques, though Taiho still has a long way to go.

Taiho recently graduated from the academy. As a definite Genin he’s prepared to do whatever it is that he is told to do because this is his life now.

Personality: He is a fairly detached sort of guy. Despite his young age, Taiho is completely emotionless. He is not the sort of guy that expresses emotion in the same way as others do. Where one would become frightened or excited he is unperturbed. He is a difficult, if not impossible, boy to stirr and typically is a non-associate to most of anything. He doesn’t align himself to any cause or group unless he believes it is something that he has to do or is responsible for.

He carries himself as a neutral guy. He looks at his allies and his enemies in the same sort of light and to the same standards. He is never biased or prejudice and is able to judge someone without any sort of favoritism. He looks at all individuals as they are, people, no matter their status or rank. He would tell anyone person the same exact thing, no matter who or what they were, should the conditions of his statement be the same. He is fair and doesn’t judge others based on what they have, how capable they are, their capacity or their strength.

Despite having some whims, such as what drove him to become a ninja, he is fairly neutral and unmotivated. He doesn’t do things for pride, pleasure, or to make himself feel better or worse, thus he is a boy without much conviction. He’s somewhat stagnant and would be the individual that does the exact same thing each and everyday simply because that is all that he needs to do. He isn’t driven by curiosity, desire for revenge or thirst for power. He is not drawn to much to the point that it would drive him to any cause or mission, thus he takes information as it is and does what he has to do in order to survive. He doesn’t think about justice or tyranny, nor does he enforce it, however he could commit acts of justice and tyranny, without care or thought, should it mean he would survive. Being unattached and without any major drive means that he is easy to manipulate, due to his lack of care for himself and interest in others, and he could kill a child without remorse or save one with little personal desire, though he’d only be driven so far if it were deemed absolutely necessary. He is a child of necessity, as in he wouldn’t do anything that wasn’t related to his own survival and what he absolutely has no choice in. He is also a child of detachment, as in no matter what choices he makes he looks back at them with disinterest.

One could look at his disinterest and call him emotionless or impassive, but he does truly have emotions. He just doesn’t have the motivation to express them. He doesn’t care for life in such a way that he would be driven to cry when someone dies or to celebrate when someone is cured. He is simply a boy that quietly exists, in nature, but doesn’t really have any real impact. Though, he is hardly emotionless. He is more of a wall, built up to filter seemingly everything non-necessary about the world. He’s been like this almost his entire life.

Combat Style: Weapons Master Technician, Long ranged

Taiho is a Genin with a keen eye and a talent for marksmanship. He favors a simple weapon such as the kunai. Although he is a long ranged specialist and can hit targets of a great distance away, he is also proficient with close quarters armed combat. Taiho is incredibly skilled with throwing weapons and possesses the aim of a ninja of a greater rank than himself. He has focused a great deal of his training on close quarters kunai combat and his throwing skills as to further refine himself as a ninja.

Nature Release: Magnet Release [Lightning and Earth]

These specialized seals are created to act as a dimensional medium to allow the user to summon the kunai in hand for easy, ready use.

Clan/Bloodline: N/A

Rank: Genin

Chakra Nature: Wind (later, Wind/Fire)

Appearance:

Personality: Kirin’s smirk is something most enemies are unhappy to see—when she smiles, it’s because she knows she can win. She is a swift, brutal fighter who is more than capable of victory in a one-on-one brawl. If she can corner someone, the battle is over. Brash, bold, and fierce, Kirin is a proud young woman with a temper. Despite her tendency to blow a fuse in social situations, her mind is uncannily sharp when necessary. She doesn’t like losing, but doesn’t dwell on it when it happens. She only looks forward to the next rematch.

She is generally sarcastic and flippant, particularly towards her sensei, but she actually respects him very much. Mature for her age and physically well-developed, Kirin is often mistaken for an older ninja by other genin. With her trademark half-smile and a heart of steel, she is prepared to fight for her home.

History: Born to a bumbling, well-meaning mother and a gentle, soft-hearted father, Kirin Haranai spent an uneventful childhood in a large home near the heart of Konohagakure. Kirin was largely unaware of the political strife tearing the land apart, spending her time as a companion to her deaf grandmother Akane while her parents and grandfather worked. Miho Haranai, her father Sanzo, and her husband Hiroyuki ran the local book shop, supplying the family with steady income as Sai’s empire flourished.

Akane Haranai had, at one time, been an exceptional kunoichi; she was a ferocious warrior whose blazing red hair and orange eyes had been a beacon during many times of strife. Even in her waning years, she retains remarkable abilities, passing her adeptness to Kirin through a series of ‘self-defense’ lessons. While she taught her granddaughter no jutsu, Akane was thorough in preparing her for life as a fighter. In the months since the death of Sai the Conquerer, Akane Haranai has returned to her position as a shinobi, coming out of retirement specifically to nurture a new generation of ninja. With her red hair streaked with white and orange eyes still gleaming with resolve, she encouraged Kirin to attend the newly reformed Konoha Academy.

The classes Kirin took as a student were an awakening for her—she had always known she was meant to be a warrior, but she had never had a chance to fight. Her grandmother had always been careful to keep her from discovered her abilities, in case Sai’s reign continued. In the wake of his demise, Kirin is now able to fight in the open, which has always been her dream. Unfortunately, her shinobi skills are not what they should be.

Kirin sweated for every grade she got, maintaining a steady but below average performance in her classes. All of her attention was devoted to genjutsu and ninjutsu, easily her weakest subjects. Her taijutsu is exceptional, her only saving grace, as her Transformation jutsu was so weak it almost prevented her from graduating. She can only create a single clone at a time, and it is an immense drain on her concentration; her Body Replacement is good, but nothing special. She is terrible with handseals and tends to avoid using them if she can.

Name: Yoru Kyo
Age|Gender: 14 Male
Alliance: undecided
Rank: Genin
Clan: Yoru
Kekkei Genkai: N/A
Traits: Yoru Clansmen are normally covered in lean corded muscles not meant for wall breaking strength more for speed causing them to be more agile than people would think looking at their taller than average. They tend to train muscle memory fast. And an Eye for the details of a weapon.

Appearance:

History: The yoru clan had its origins beginning in the land of fire in a small village that was really nothing more than four houses. Yoru is not the original name for the clan they were originally they were the Yugure a family of blacksmiths, but one member dreamed of not just making the weapons but using them so he learned the secrets of their clans forging techniques, before left and headed out.to become a ninja. That mans name was Yugure Aoi he headed off to Konohagakure once there he began training to be a shinobi, but he seperated himself from the family name and progressed taking the name Yoru.

The Yuguru/Yoru methods of forging weapons is taught to every member. But everyone tended to forge a different method as their chakra itself was bonded to the materials they forge. Even ones chakra nature has an effect on the weapon. Their method of forging causes the weapon to be an excellent conduit for chakra The members of the family who choose to be forge masters are respected for their discipline among the hot heads. Yoru clansmen only fight with a Yoru blade. Normally they forge at least one weapon themselves that becomes their signature. A Yoru who cannot care for his own weapons is viewed as a failure and is normally outcast from the clan. The Yoru live by the idea "If your heart is in your steel then you shall never break"

Kyo was born the only son of a forge master. From the moment he could manage to swing a hammer he was working with his father building weapons for the shinobi of Konohagakure. Though as he aged he realized there was no excitement in working the forge. He decided to join the ranks of the shinobi. His father told him that before he would be a shinobi he had to understand the forging methods of their family and build his weapon. And so he spent the next year Studying harder than most of those who chose the forge master path of the family. After that year he spent the next six months forging the perfect weapon. When he was done he named the weapon Akuma no Kiba. This weapon was unheard of for one of their family to wield. They were swordsmen ever since Aoi put down his own scythe and took back up the hammer to pass down the secrets of forging Yoru weapons.

Kyo knew he could never carry this weapon publicly, but the head of the main house of shinobi taught him out to seal a weapon inside of a scroll. He then began attending the ninja academy. He put the same effort forward for his studies that he had when he learned to forge weapons. He wasn't top of the class but he was well up there but grew bored. He graduated average seen as nothing special.

Personality: He tends to be a very disciplined kid when he wants to. but for the most part he is a slacker. He views the world as if it would continue to spin even if everyone just vanished.

Combat Style: He is a weapon specialist that prefers the up close and personal methods. He prefers the options that being mid range affords when mixed with close range. He uses the sword against most but he uses the scythe if the target is particularly dangerous
Nature Release: Wind
Jutsu List:
Wind Release: Violent Wind Palm
Flying Swallow He has far from mastered this technique Right now he can no more than double the length of his kunai which are the only ninja tools that he can currently perform the flying swallow on.

Summoning He uses this to summon his scythe
Generic Sealing Technique

Weaponry: Chakra Bladed Scythe,
and Ninjato

Miscellaneous: For the most part the Yoru clan is respected among other clans as amazing craftsmen, but as they don't have any Hiden techniques or bloodline abilities they do get looked down on as being nothing special when it came to shinobi. Most people look at them with intrigue as they stand a full head taller than most people their age.

History:

It is very rare for women in the Uchiha Clan to serve and obtain the sharingan, Rihan the Father of Ria have two daughters thus it was straight to the point that his daughters easily gets ridiculed because not having a child as a son that possess the sharingan. While ridiculed through out the age of 5, Rihan thought his daughters Ria and Rui the art of the spears as well as knowledge about Uchiha Clan fire jutsu.

The girls went under tutelage with her Father even it was the Academy Days, every time after classes they would proceed to train, this lead to a close Father-Daughter relationship in hopes to make the clan proud despite being women and Kunoichi. Unlike any other Uchiha, Ria along with her sister is thought in respective way by their parents, they are not ruthless nor vile like every Uchiha would be, their parents give them discipline and love in a place of hunger for power and hatred like two stars that are connected, shining bright in the dark tunnel, never again tainted.

She would go through sneaky methods to gain information regarding strangers whom she may not know about, especially if its enemies, Ria uses the method of befriending them which becomes a whole play of charades of persona, she can be a sweet and submissive girl, kind and outgoing person, seductive and aggressive which makes her decisive and as sly as a fox. While she is all deceptive, Ria deep inside is a friendly and enthusiastic girl once you get to know her and in fact this is her true default persona that is mostly seen yet hard to notice and believe by people whom she made lose trust, she is willing to help those who are in need especially her closest friends and family but truly vulnerable and taken advantage of, once bonds are considered which is her biggest flaw. Aside from all this theater charade, Ria is the type of person who is energetic described by her friends as a walking battery.

Combat Style:
Ria's fighting style is coordinated with deception and precision, she uses spear wielding, a refined fighting style that totally suits her personality mixed along with deceptive tactics are her usage of wires, smoke bombs and oil .While unarmed, she changes into a gymnast type of fighting with graceful flexibility and reflexes, she would use anything around her environment as a weapon of choice especially wires mixed with oil for a fire spread effect, when it comes to chakra manipulation, she is more of a charger, Ria distributes chakra as a flow through out her body to perform graceful flexible movements such as backflips and splits. Her usage of the spear is something worth praising.

Myth Okiyama

13

Male

- Alliance -
Konohagakure

- Clan -
Clanless

- Rank -
Genin

- Traits -
Myth kind of sucks at being a ninja. He can't fight worth even one Ryō, and he's rather clumsy on his feet. Myth excels at are illusionary and teleportation-type jutsu, and when he doesn't fall on his face, he has impressive stamina, and can outlast the majority of Genin in a fight by simply avoiding attacks.

- History -
Myth lives in Konohagakure with his parents and at one point with his older sister. Being young and an easy target, his sister used him to practice techniques and fighting when she was enrolled in the academy. Her sister was the favorite of his parents, strong and brave and everything they wanted in a son. Myth's older sister passed the academy with flying colors, and soon after she did, she joined a squad and completely disappeared from Myth and his parent's lives. However, the constant surprise attacks from his sister had taken their toll. Myth was constantly paranoid throughout the day.
As Myth got older, he decided to join the academy in an attempt to help himself with his shyness and paranoia through gaining strength. He wasn't the ninja his sister was, and through being sub-par, his social conditions remained the same. He did pass, however. He never did better than the best, never worse than the worst, and he wasn't ever noticed. However, during his time at the academy, he excelled at jutsus that involved hiding himself or jutsus he could use to run away from a fight. He barely passed his final exams, and is currently waiting to join a squad.

- Personality -
Myth is extremely shy and quiet. He doesn't like talking or physical contact, not even eye contact sometimes. He hates to have any negative emotions directed towards him, and tries his best to make everyone happy through indirect ways. He's also extremely paranoid, looking over his shoulder at the slightest sound and jumping at anyone who would touch him from behind.

- Combat Style -
Myth either runs away or avoids\blocks attacks until his opponent is too tired to carry on the fight.

- Nature Release -
None yet.

- Jutsu List -
Clone Technique
Body Replacement Technique
Body Flicker Technique
Teleportation: Safe Place

Jutsu Name - Teleportation: Safe Place
Jutsu Type - Ninjutsu
Effective Range - Anywhere
Description - Myth uses this jutsu when he is either badly injured or feels he is in imminent danger of being hurt by something. Myth clasps his hands over his mouth, saying under his breath, "Take me to my safe place..." Then, chakra builds up in Myth's body and reacts to a seal drawn on his bedpost. The seal glows briefly before Myth is teleported to his house in Konohagakure, in his bed, where he falls asleep instantly.
Drawbacks - This jutsu is obviously extremely draining, as Myth has no control of whether or not he falls asleep upon contact with his bed when using the jutsu. Also, the location of Myth's 'safe place' can not be changed. He will always teleport to his room and on to his bed.

- Weaponry -
Simple shurikens and kunai.

Appearance

Shin stands at average height, only fifty-eight inches without his boots. He also lacks muscle bulk, but is highly tone with what he has. Shin also wears the traditional armor worn by those who served under Sai, which resembles Traditional Japanese Samurai armor. His right arm lacks any armor as it instead is a grey, alien appendage that appears to be a discolored exoskeleton, although it functions completely as an armor and is has a matte texture. Shin has long, red hair that is a darker shade than his reddened armor. Each shoulder plate of his armor displays a different symbol: the right shows the Uzumaki symbol while the left displays the Uchiha symbol, and on his back, covered by his hair, is a large U shaped piece of metal. His left eye is also alien in that it is a constant Sharingan with three full tomoe, but lacks any scar. Shin has two weapon pouches and several scrolls on his thigh plates, but most notably adorns the Samehada on his back. Shin has a very complex and unique appearance, as most people are often thrown off by his eyes alone. One gentle, blue eye that appears to have the depth of a serene ocean across from a blazing-red Uchiha iris.



History Shin speaks very little of his history before the resistance, but much of it is known. Shin was, for a very long time, considered the second strongest shinobi alive. He served Sai, his uncle, and was trained by his father, Sai's brother, from birth. Shin spent his entire life being honed as a shinobi by some of the strongest men in the world, and became a Jounin at the age most graduated the academy. He fought and served alongside the Regime of Sai before Sai even took it over, more serving his father and grandfather than Sai. Shin has stated that he saw Sai strike down his father and grandfather, and even surrendered his allegiance too Sai when Sai activated his arm, as it had a similar mechanism to the Cursed Seals. Shin has told others that his arm is a replacement grown by Sai after he lost his arm in Kirigakure. The history known of Shin is mostly told by Shin, and he has claimed that most of his power comes from a single day. What he means is that on the day Sai took over, Shin took the scraps. He took the Samehada from Sai's lover, the eye of his grandfather, the seals of their best friend and left behind the will of his father. Shin claimed that it was on that day, that he saw how his family was willing to cut down Sai and his lover, that he knew he could not serve them, but also that Sai was a broken man after he took the heart of who he loved. In that sense, Shin claims that he joined the resistance before it was even made.

Roughly a year before the war, it was revealed that Shin was a double-agent working alongside Hitori Uzumaki, Hosuka Uzumaki, Kirugetsu Hozuki and several others that were leading the resistance. Shin had been feeding them information, allowing them to reclaim their villages and giving them knowledge about the specific strengths and weaknesses of each part of Sai. It was also Shin who deactivated the fortress that Sai turned Amegakure into, and disarmed the traps he set. Shin worked as an inside agent until the last moment, then allowed Sai to die even though Shin took no actual part in the battle. Since then, Shin joined Konohagakure, claiming that wherever Hitori would have been, Shin would follow in spirit. Shin has since faced an incredible amount of skepticism with only the highest ranks of Konoha truly trusting him.

Personality Shin lived a twisted life, made into a weapon since birth, and parts of that still show. He is cold and calculating with all of the intelligence of his familial line. Shin, however, has proven time after time to have a heart and to value things like love and family, to the extent he was depressed and completely torn asunder upon seeing his family ripped apart because they forced his uncle to choose between his family and his love, then seeing everyone die due to it. Shin believes no one should have to choose between a life of servitude to their country and cause and a life of love and family. For that, Shin often pressures the older shinobi to retire, telling anyone getting 'rusty' that they should let a new generation take over. Unfortunately, he is well aware that Konoha needs its full militant force. For those he does not wish to retire, Shin pushes them to grow and become powerful. Unlike those before him, who trained him to be a shinobi without passion, Shin believes that true power comes from passion and he believes that he never truly lived until he fought for a cause: liberation.

Nature Release Wind
Important Items Samehada, sealing scrolls (the scrolls contain a formula that places a seal onto the ground and allows Shin to use time-space jutsu within the field, which is roughly 25 meters)
Combat Style: Shin is skilled in essentially all ranges of combat. Since birth, Shin was raised to be a ninjutsu-wielding sensor, and became a Jounin using high-ranking Wind Release. Shin was also skilled with taijutsu, but to a far lesser degree. Shin never picked up genjutsu, although he does have a small arsenal of such, and he is in no way a medic-nin. However, Shin was given a large boost to his taijutsu with his arm, which is covered in a steel-hard exoskeleton derived from the jutsu of Sai's familial line. His arm is stronger and faster than his own top speed, and he uses the nature chakra of his arm to tame the Samehada. Thus, with his strength and the tamed Samehada, Shin is highly skilled in close range combat as well as mid and long range combat due to his Wind Release. With his Uzumaki heritage, Sai is also relatively hard to kill and has stronger chakra than a regular shinobi. He also bares the Sharigan, but truly only makes use of its passive effects of movement and chakra reading, which makes his sensory skills even more accurate. Lastly, Shin is skilled with fuinjutsu, being one of the only known time-space users in the world. The summation of his strength led most to believe he was the second strongest and possibly now is the strongest shinobi alive.

Appearance

Hayato stands a solid six feet tall with a muscular frame. His auburn hair is often left completely unchecked and he has a disdain for the uniform that most shinobi at and above chuunin level are urged to wear, thus he doesn't. The only equipment that Hayato does choose to wear is a belt full of shorter-than-average scrolls accompanied by three on his back all roughly two feet in length and three inches thick. These scrolls account for a vast majority of his actual weaponry, but not all. Hayato is fit with three specialized air tubes in his arms, similar to those used by Zaku Abumi. Aside from these characteristics, Hayato is generally defined as an 'aesthetically pleasing' man by those around him, thus earning him the nickname "The Allure of Ame" as he also originates from Amegakure.



History Hayato was a prodigious chuunin in Amegakure during the Second Great Shinobi war, making his name using the enhancements given to him through Amegakure weapons specialist of the era. Due to alliances and trade unions, Amegakure had become very powerful and wealthy despite its small size, and its shinobi were receiving some of the benefits. Before the procedures, Hayato was just another genin that went into the ranks for the glory, as much of the able-bodied youth of that time did, but his ability to handle the enhancements earned him recognition. Those who received the implants in their arms often rejected them, causing damage to muscles groups and the nervous systems located in their arms, permanently lowering their combat capabilities. Hayato was able to receive three without complication, and could use them skillfully.

Hayato fought for Amegakure in the Second Great Shinobi War, but fled to Sunagakure upon the overthrow of its government, as did several other shinobi whom sought refuge. Hayato became part of a refugee culture within Sunagakure and hid within its walls and sand-struck boundary until it was finally overtaken by Sai in his last act of world domination. The Kazekage of Sunagakure held out, alongside his personal guard, until their chakra was completely exhausted and the sands shifted in the favor of Sai. This took years, however, since Sai did not truly own every country until his sixth year in power. Even with Sunagakure taken, miles of desert and hundreds of oasis provided sanctuary for most of the rogue shinobi, thus leading them, and Hayato, to the life of a wandering nomad.

During his time in Sunagakure, Hayato trained among many of the shinobi that took refuse there. He honed his Wind Release, but moreover found he had an advanced chakra nature: Sound Release. Hayato began to play instruments, learn of how sound worked, how the air worked, and as he did pushed his abilities using knowledge instead of raw power, although he did not lack the latter. This lead Hayato develop his signature fighting style by incorporating the abilities of the famous puppeteers of Sunagakure with the addition of chakra strings. Hayato spent nearly a decade honing his style as a desert nomad with those he traveled with, moving by day and playing by night.

This lasted until the resistance called upon all shinobi to take stand and rise against Sai's Empire within their domain, and Hayato was not one to ignore the horn of battle. With hundreds of nomadic shinobi alongside him, Hayato assisted in the siege of the great desert fortress of Sungakure and brought down the Sai that ran the sandy cornerstone of the world. After the fall of Sai, Hayato took to hunting those with the Cursed Marks, but with political pressure, was forced to choose sides between Sunagakure and Konohagakure. As did many shinobi, although fewer of the nomadic desert shinobi, he chose to join Konohagakure solely on the influence of the resistance and his former friends that also joined. Not long after taking a permanent spot in Konohagakure, Hayato and his loose adherence to rules, skill in frivolity using instruments and latent charm earned him the nickname "The Allure of Ame", which results in most either calling him Allure or Hayato, generally pending on gender.

Personality Hayato was once a very stern shinobi that took little pride in his ability to use his implants. However, a decade spent in the desert, dancing 'round fires while honing his skills against friends led to him becoming a fairly frivolous individual. Some claim that if Hayato trained as diligently as even a chuunin, he may be just as powerful as the Hokage and Jounin Commander, to which Hayato generally retorts with apathy. Hayato prefers the foods, sensations and freedom of not being stuck in endless sand and even after months of being inside Konohagakure he truly has yet to lose interest in his frivolity. That said, Hayato does take his job quite seriously, and on a mission there is no one more focused on hunting down those with the Cursed Mark of Sai, but it is a rarity for such a mission or even lead to arise.

Nature Release Wind, Sound
Important Items Twelve short-scrolls that contain folded, hollow, holed metal balls. Three large scrolls on his back, each summoning a different item:

• Two large curved walls that act as barriers and sound amplifiers


• One harp made of material that amplifies chakra flow


• Sixteen large, hollow pillars of holed metal

Combat Style: Hayato is easily the definition of versatility when it comes to combat. Although he has no outstanding skill in taijutsu alone, Hayato has developed a nintaijutsu that works in collaboration with one of his core jutsu. Hayato has a set of core jutsu in addition to several more peripheral jutsu granting him a high level of versatility. Additionally, his years within the Sunagakure desert have left him with a high amount of stamina and his years practicing the same jutsu have granted him well-trained chakra reservers. Hayato centers his justu around the little metal balls he can summon, which is why he carries twelve scrolls. They are connected in a network of chakra that allow them to emit sound and are controlled by Hayato himself via chakra threads normally used by puppeteers. These balls can be used to enhance or alter his jutsu as well as can be enhanced with the use of his dome or pillars. Hayato is also skilled with Wind Release, although most Wind Release techniques can dampen his Sound Release, but is still capable of blasting powerful gusts of wind, if need be.

Justu List All Academy Jutsu.

Canon jutsu

• Decapitating Airwaves


• Extreme Decapitating Airwaves


• Wind Release: Great Breakthrough

Custom Jutsu

Jutsu Name: Wind Release: Tempest Rising
Jutsu Type: Offensive
Effective Range: Close-Mid
Nature Type: Wind
Descriptions: Hayato performs a single handsign that conjures a wall of wind around him, acting as a barrier. This wind can be turned into a cyclone and aimed at a target with great destructive force.
Drawbacks: Hayato cannot visibly see past the wind barrier when created.

Jutsu Name: Helix Airwaves
Jutsu Type: Offensive
Effective Range: Mid
Nature Type: Wind
Descriptions: Using the implants in his arms, Hayato blasts compressed wind in the shape of a helix. This blast is more compressed than his decapitating airwaves, thus has greater penetrating power.
Drawbacks: Hayato cannot perform handsigns while using this jutsu.

Jutsu Name: Spherical Airwaves
Jutsu Type: Offensive
Effective Range: Mid-Long
Nature Type: Wind
Descriptions: This jutsu allows the creation of 'pellets' of compressed air that can be fired at high rates similar to a Gatling gun. Upon impact, the airwaves explode with a large sum of force. These pellets can be held and added together to create larger spheres that can be fired at shorter distances and slower velocities to do exponentially more collateral damage.
Drawbacks: Hayato cannot perform handsigns while using this jutsu.

Jutsu Name: Sound Release: Decapitating Soundwaves
Jutsu Type: Offensive
Effective Range: Close-Mid-Short
Nature Type: Sound
Descriptions: Hayato creates sound waves using the three implants in his arm and manipulates them with chakra as to control their concentration, range, frequency and potency. Hayato can thusly create soundwaves that act as regular Decapitating Airwaves, Helix Airwaves or Spherical Airwaves with the use of one jutsu, and can be amplified by other sound-based jutsu.
Drawbacks: Hayato cannot perform handsigns while using this jutsu.

Jutsu Name: Sound Release: White Noise Zone
Jutsu Type: Supplementary
Effective Range: 15 meter radius
Nature Type: Sound
Descriptions: Using the metal balls he can summon and chakra threads, Hayato creates an area that is constantly amplified by sound that is under his control, ranging from frequency, wavelength and potency. Each ball is connected with 12 chakra threads that repair in 2 seconds if cut. Each connection, aside from the outer most layer,is thus connected to twelve other balls. The constant sonic emission allows Hayato to see everything in the area in ultrasound and amplify his Sound jutsu.
Drawbacks: Alone, this jutsu is effortless to maintain, but using it to amplify jutsu can be exhausting.

Jutsu Name: Sound Release: White Noise Death Zone
Jutsu Type: Supplementary, Offensive
Effective Range: 50 meters in a do-decagon
Nature Type: Sound
Descriptions: Hayato creates a do-decagon using the pillars he has sealed on his back that connect to the metal balls, allowing him to have far more of them in an area. These pillars channel his chakra at a higher efficiency, thus reducing their chakra use while also increasing the demand. In addition to increasing the range that Hayato can use the White Noise Zone, it also amplifies the chakra that passes through it greatly. Using sound waves alone, Hayato can deal blows to opponents as hard as regular punches, interrupt regular breathing, redirect airflow and increase pressure on a person as well as create high-pitch sounds that can deafen opponents, all within his field.
Drawbacks: This jutsu requires at least four pillars to remain up to maintain, but loses some strength if any of its pillars are lost in general. This is why there are four extra in his seal.

Jutsu Name: Sound Release: White jacket Insanity
Jutsu Type: Nintaijutsu
Effective Range: Short-Mid
Nature Type: Sound
Descriptions: Hayato coats his body in a layer of sound-attuned chakra, then can transition his body through a White Noise Zone at just under the speed of sound itself. If there are at least four pillars standing while this jutsu is in use, Hayato can also amplify simple blows with sound-wave explosions to add collateral damage. This jutsu also protects Hayato from certain concussive forces.
Drawbacks: This jutsu prevents Hayato from using other jutsu while in movement, but not while active.

Jutsu Name: Sound Release: The Bell Tolls
Jutsu Type: Supplementary, Offensive
Effective Range: Short-Mid,-Long
Nature Type: Sound
Descriptions: Hayato can amplify any sound wave within his White Noise Zone, including those of his own jutsu. Thus, Hayato can simply pour more chakra into his pillars and thus his jutsu to make them stronger.
Drawbacks: The chakra required to amplify jutsu.

Jutsu Name: Summoning: Walls of Sound
Jutsu Type: Offensive, Defensive
Effective Range: Short-Mid-Long
Nature Type: Sound
Descriptions: Hayato can summon his large, curved walls to either be used offensively or defensively. Defensively, they are simply large walls of steel, but offensively they are curved to amplify soundwaves greatly, allowing Hayato to destroy small towns with them if he was not interrupted.
Drawbacks: The specific shape of these walls can interrupt the White Noise Zone, thus forcing Hayato to only use one at a time.

Jutsu Name: Sound Release: Harp of Discord
Jutsu Type: Offensive
Effective Range: Mid-Long
Nature Type: Sound
Descriptions: Hayato can use his summoned harp to conduct a symphony of destruction. Each chakra-enhanced stroke of the fingers will cause a torrent of powerful sound waves of beautific nature that can rip apart even solid steel. This jutsu grows more powerful the longer a song is played and can be made even more destructive by the use of Hayato's walls of sound. If allowed to play an entire song on his harp, Hayato could leave a village in ruin.
Drawbacks: Hayato cannot miss a note, elsewise will cancel the jutsu. He must also remain stationary and he does not always have full control over the direction of the sound waves. It is possible, while using the Wall of Sound, for Hayato to be hit and even killed by his own sound wave. This jutsu was created by accident by Hayato and is one he considers a mistake.
