In the face of that disaster, her father was rarely able to visit her mother and the child born out of wedlock, but when he could, he indulged his child's burgeoning brightness eagerly. Sadly, in the waning days of the civil war, he would be one of those to perish, and Kasumi's mother would choose to keep the nature of her daughter's birth a secret, fearing prejudice or reprisal from various interests. It was this environment tinged with a persistent, subtle undercurrent of fear that would eventually drive Kasumi to begin to seek security and relief in the arms of power. She grew to internalize the fear of death or worse, always worried that she might end up as her father had... as her distant relatives in the Uchiha had. She couldn't help but wonder: if a prized noble clan like the Uchiha could be nearly purged and disregarded for opposing Konoha's party line, then what would that mean for her, a bastard child without even the lessened support of a Shinobi Clan behind her? With that in mind, Kasumi was quick to pursue the life of a shinobi, even from an age too young to enter the Academy. In hindsight, she might have considered her unusual focus and maturity to be abnormal, but she would know later that it was the development of her Inner helping her along. Thus bolstered, she pursued arts of chakra cultivation with both the fervor of desperation and what she would come to recognize as a genuine thirst and love for knowledge in every form she could afford to invest. There was a certain... [i]lean[/i] to her knowledge, however, especially once she had graduated to Genin and found the proof of her father's blood awakening in the stress of life-or-death fieldwork. She felt drawn to arts of protection, of [i]survival[/i]. The arts of healing and fuinjutsu drew her eyes like moths to a flame and stoked the hunger inside her to new heights with every improvement she made in their pursuit. At one point, she even considered the Medic Corps something of a dream job. A stable, well-paying backline role where she didn't have to risk her neck and could keep training privately? Yes, please! Unfortunately, that passion would die an ignoble death, much like many other things, when Pein's invasion rolled around. Kasumi, age 11 at the time, was one of those lucky enough to avoid being obliterated outright. Unfortunately, survival was only the beginning of a grueling nightmare, where she got and extended first-hand look at the horrors of an all-out war. The devastation was immense, and it seemed that -even in the aftermath- the tide of bodies [i]just kept coming[/i]. As one of those precious few medics still in any shape to treat the wounded, Kasumi found herself practically relegated to little more than a machine, healing day in and out for weeks, surrounded by the stench of blood, shit and chemicals. Every hour of every day, she had burned into her memory (sometimes even with permanence with her Sharingan) visions of suffering and agony, and her hunger to never languish similarly rose to even greater heights. By the time Konoha was able to return to anything even approaching normal operations again and she was released from her obligations, Kasumi was well and truly burnt out on healing. In many ways, she found she almost even despised the practice outright, grimacing internally at the thought of healing one more person. While she could take some solace in the generous wartime bonus she'd received for her service, it did very little to rectify how she now considered her once dream-job a perpetual ticking time bomb. Yet, worse still, she could only feel resigned to the fact that, as much as she hated it, healing was still an objectively safer profession than making a living as a regular shinobi. Trapped by her own common sense and survival instinct, Kasumi resigned herself to her original game plan. Yet, in this time of crushed idealism, she came to find herself drawn to a revitalized passion for Fuinjutsu. Anything, she thought, to take her mind off the drudgery of healing. She now threw herself even harder into the practice and began to find her eyes opened to the shocking potential it held. The thirst to learn... The hunger to [i]experiment[/i]... She found them both fanned to new heights, height tall enough even to push her into tentatively getting back into field work again, both to get away from healing and to have the opportunity to [i]test[/i] all the [i]wonderful[/i] ideas she now had. In the meanwhile, as she always had before, Kasumi strove to fly largely under the radar. She craved neither fame, nor notoriety. Instead, she strove for quiet success where she could and did not pursue promotion opportunities ambitiously, perfectly content to remain a Genin until it no longer looked reasonable. By the present day, she has managed to remain largely unremarkable in the grand scheme of things, just one Haruno amongst the growing many flowing into the Medic Corps. Sure, her bedside manner might need some work, but none can truly doubt her skills, right? Not as a technical veteran of the Pein War. [color=ec008c]S E L F[/COLOR] Kasumi can be sometimes described as possessing the bedside demeanor of a nurse on a smoke break. Not that she smokes; it's "bad for you", after all, and she likes to think of herself as a forward thinker. She is sardonic, owns a sharp tongue and is more than happy to snark about how she decides who lives or dies (so don't piss her off). Generally speaking, as a medic, she resents her patients and has little patience for those disinclined to obey her instructions in her capacity as their doctor, seeing her ability and willingness to heal others as a privilege not to be taken for granted (lest she remind others with inaction)("They're ninja, right? Are they dying right now? Well, they can probably handle a little pain. My chakra's precious, you know."). Kasumi values her personal survival and prosperity above all else. Neither comradery nor Konoha come into things except as a second thought at best. Having seen Konoha's willingness to treat their people like garbage several times over, Kasumi holds very little true loyalty to them. Despite this, her self-interest and relative lack of ambition mean she's the sort to get comfortable in one place instead of making a serious effort to make it elsewhere. To that end, she is content to use Konoha and her comrades and one giant conglomeration of meat shields, availing herself of the Great Village's resources, prosperity and "brand recognition" in the meantime. Despite her occasional griping, Kasumi is largely content to leave the status quo be, so long as it doesn't affect her personally, and she spends her time eagerly focused on personal cultivation and the exploration of the wonders of chakra. Likes: "Private... shit, I have to answer? Well, peace and fuckin' [i]quiet[/i] for one. Also [i]privacy[/i]." [i]Glares.[/i] Dislikes: "Nosey little shits, but I'm sure I don't need to tell you that, right? I guess your face too." Fears: "This conversation wasting more of my time. Are we done here?

Within the range of this style's variants, the [url=https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Silent_Fist?so=search]Silent Fist[/url] is a fighting style focused around rendering the user's movements completely silent by cloaking themselves in chakra. In doing so, the user renders their movements virtually unpredictable, especially if combined with a manner of obscuring the enemy's sight.   [url=https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Earth_Release:_Hiding_Like_a_Mole_Technique]Hiding Like a Mole Technique[/url] [sup]C-Rank · Support[/sup] Allows the user to change earth into fine sand and dig through it like a mole. They are able to navigate by detecting magnetic forces and can sense what is happening on the surface. The user is also able to return the earth to its original state in their wake, effectively leaving no trace of their passage.

A versatile Fuinjutsu that is often considered a basic tool in a shinobi's kit, these seals are hardy enough to operate unimpeded even under heavy rain and other humid conditions. When used remotely, these seals are even able to be set to detonate in sequence, making them very useful for traps. [indent]Derivative: [url=https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Barrier_Method_Formation]Barrier Method Formation[/url][/indent] [url=https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Enclosing_Technique]Enclosing Technique[/url] [sup]C-Rank · Close Range[/sup] An immensely flexible technique using a Fuinjutsu spacetime array to seal a wide variety of targets into an enclosed pocket dimension anchored to the surface of a target (usually a scroll), including but not limited to: equipment, chakra, jutsu and even living creatures. Sealed targets can be released manually or upon a set condition being met. [indent][url=https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Fire_Sealing_Method]Elemental Sealing Method[/url] [sup]Derivative · Close range[/sup] A Fuinjutsu array used to seal away a nearby elemental release, regardless of any special properties that element may have. Once contained, the jutsu remains sealed until the user chooses to unseal it. However, each casting of this array can only contain a single jutsu and must release it before the seal can be filled again. Furthermore, it is only suited to managing more physical elements, like the standard five natures, and it is impotent against the likes of Yin and Yang release.[/indent] [url=https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Unsealing_Technique]Unsealing Technique[/url] [sup]D-Rank · Supplementary[/sup] The standardized technique used to unseal something sealed into a storage Fuinjutsu. [indent]Derivative: [url=https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Unsealing_Technique:_Shuriken]Unsealing Technique: Shuriken[/url] · [url=https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Four-Corner_Sealing_Barrier]Four-Corner Sealing Barrier[/url] [/indent] [url=https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Chakra_Draining_Seal]Chakra Draining Seal[/url] [sup]A-Rank · Close range[/sup] A Fuinjutsu created to draw chakra from a target. A seal is placed on or beneath the target, draining chakra from them into the user. This jutsu can even be selective enough to draw out foreign chakra from a target. [indent]Chakra Binding [sup]Derivative · Close range[/sup] A variant array that channels drained chakra back into itself in a strengthening feedback loop, which is marked on the target's body. The purpose of this array is capture and secure restraint, keeping the target perpetually drained near to the point of chakra exhaustion such that they are left far too weak to hope to escape or fight back without outside aid. [indent]Chakra Battery [sup]Derivative · Close-mid range[/sup] A variant array that creates a more long-range, sustained "contract" of sorts between the caster and one or more targets. A sealing array is placed on both the caster and a target, allowing the caster to use them as a source of additional chakra while they remain nearby. This works best with an unconscious or willing target; otherwise, the target may be able to hamper the chakra flow, provided they have enough chakra control to be conscious of the drain.[/indent][/indent] [url=https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Sealing_Technique:_Release]Sealing Technique: Release[/url] [sup]A-Rank · Supplementary[/sup] A reactionary sealing technique marked on the user's body that acts as a countermeasure to dispel Fuinjutsu that may be restricting them. By touching the seal, it activates and nullifies the effects of the hostile Fuinjutsu cast on them. Though, this technique only protects the user, not anyone else that might also be caught in the same Fuinjutsu. [indent]Conditional Countermeasure Release [sup]Derivative · Supplementary[/sup] A variant array that can be triggered by a coded pulse of chakra or spoken passphrase in the case that it is impossible to touch it for activation. It can alternatively be set to trigger in the extended absence of certain stimuli, presuming the user is otherwise too incapacitated to trigger any of its other activation conditions.[/indent] [url=https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Self-Cursing_Seal]Self-Cursing Seal[/url] [sup]?-Rank · Close-range[/sup] Similar to the Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal, this seal can also be applied during combat, and it can secretly be placed on a target's body. When the user activates it, the curse seal's marks spread around the subject's body, paralyzing them. However, one can break free with a strong enough release of chakra (noted example: unleashing Susanoo). [indent]Paralysis Tag [sup]Derivative · Close-Range[/sup] A variant of the sealing array mounted to a medium -like a sheet of paper- and set to be triggered after a time period, when stuck to a target or when remotely activated. In this form, this jutsu can be applied to the Barrier Method Formation, and when triggered, the tags are consumed to unleash their effect upon all available targets within the barrier's area.[/indent] [hider=Custom Taijutsu Form: Rupture Fist] [b]Rupture Style: Rupture Fist[/b] A taijutsu style inspired by the likes of the Gentle Fist, Kasumi originally began developing it after witnessing the consequences of overcharging the Surface Walking technique. The Rupture Fist is a taijutsu style revolving around the offensive use of a bastardized Surface Walking jutsu to stick to and violently inject chakra into a target on touch, causing immense internal damage and -more often than not- for the infused area to even outright explode. Despite comparisons to Tsunade's superstrength technique, this jutsu is entirely focused on damage in a much shorter range. It is thus more devastating in its own right but does not inherently physically enhance the user as a bonus. Side effects of the Rupture Fist on a target can be damage to or blockages in the chakra system (reference: Gentle Fist), along with the potential to send victims into a coma (reference: Mystical Palm). As a fighting style, the Rupture Fist styles itself as that of a brutal, dirty brawler, striking with the confidence that even a single touch can mean death or a horrific maiming for the victim. Because it does not particularly rely on striking specific targets or weak points, the Rupture Fist is perfectly happy to make any form of contact at all, to cause any form of damage at all, knowing that even the slightest wound is one step towards victory. Even so, despite this acknowledgement, the Rupture Fist is by no means the path of a death by a thousand cuts. Every single strike is made with deadly capacity and intent, bearing the potential for ruination should the opponent let their guard down even once. Whether the user is striking or blocking, they remain easily in a perpetual state of attack. This flexibility allows a user to approach combat however they prefer, either aggressively pursuing foes, or conservatively allowing the enemy to come to them. Either way, they can feel assured that the result will be the same. [indent]* [b]Rupture Style: Delayed Eruption[/b] [sup]Derivative Use · Close-mid range[/sup] A more difficult variation of a Rupture Fist strike that implants a "bulb" of chakra inside a target, which contains a preset amount of chakra. This chakra can be set to erupt after a short period, or it can be set to detonate when incited with a follow-up pulse of chakra. This variant, however, requires a little bit of prep time to carefully shape the bulb preemptively before the injection. [indent]* [b]Rupture Style: Shaped Charge[/b] [sup]Derivative Use · Close-Long range[/sup] A charged Rupture Fist strike of varying potential, the user maintains extended contact with a surface or target and focuses on creating a more directed explosion. Instead of allowing their chakra to run rampant within a general target zone, they give the eruption a limited boundary to operate and inject chakra far more slowly and carefully than normal. A result of this greater focus is the ability to "transmit" the eruption across larger distances or for the eruption to be even more devastating than normal, scaling to outright disintegration at full charge. Because of the slow speed, this jutsu is generally combat impractical, but it is useful as an ambush opener or for the demolition of fortified structures (like walls), along with the secure disposal of bodies.[/indent][/indent] [b]Rupture Style: Quake Sheath[/b] A companion jutsu and countermeasure against the primary technique of the Rupture Fist, Kasumi designed this as a counter to her own tricks being used against her. Demanding high chakra control, this jutsu is accomplished by bleeding chakra from one's skin to create a protective film of chakra over the user's body. In doing so, this film prevents incoming chakra from being injected through shielded areas, a measure that largely nullifies the worst of not only the Rupture Fist, but related techniques like Chakra Enhanced Strength and the Gentle Fist. A guarded area will even repel the application of unwanted Fuinjutsu arrays. Having the user's chakra shoved out in mass this way in a constant stream is, however, generally extremely taxing, and it is usually most efficient to only protect one's limbs to parry blows with. It should be noted, of course, that an attacker may be able to break through this defense -at least in part- if they use enough chakra in their own attack to overpower it. [indent]* [b]Rupture Style: Reactive Sheathe[/b] [sup]Derivative Use · Close range[/sup] A variation of the Quake Sheath requiring impeccable chakra control and timing, instead of maintaining a constant stream of chakra preventatively, the user reactively deploys their chakra to guard an area of their body that is about to recieve an attack. The result is temporary, but the force of such an expulsion may both additionally blunt the force of the received blow and perhaps cause the enemy to rebound, providing an opportunity for retreat or counterattack. [indent]* [b]Rupture Style: Punishing Defense[/b] [sup]Derivative Use · Close range[/sup] A further refinement of the reactionary variant of this defensive technique that strikes to turn even a strategy of defense into further offense. With precise timing and chakra control, the user receives an attack with a rapidly condensed spike of chakra, which is then stabbed into the incoming blow to both disrupt the structure of any chakra shaped into it and to hopefully pierce the opponent with a chakra invasion of the user's own, counting on the attacker to not be able to maintain a worthwhile defense of their own behind their offense-oriented blow.[/indent][/indent] [/hider] [hider=Inner Sakura: Domain Expansion] [b]Inner Sakura: Domain Expansion[/b] [sup]S-Rank · AOE[/sup] A combined Fuinjutsu and Yin technique that requires the presence of the Inner Sakura. The caster prepares this technique by preemptively applying a complicated sealing array on their own body. When casting the technique, this array blooms out from their body into a wide, spherical radius to form a barrier, whereupon Yin chakra is applied with a storage seal-adjacent formula to swallow everything inside that radius and pull it into a space cut off from the world in a conventional sense. In a sense, it is a jutsu that "seals the world inside it into the world itself". Once cast, those inside the barrier will find themselves locked inside a space seemingly much larger than the original area of the barrier, the world around them replaced with a replicated manifestation of a portion of the caster's mindscape, a feat only truly possible with the aid of an Inner Sakura to ensure the fabrication is clearly defined. This space can take many forms, depending on the caster's desires, imagination and mental state, and the contents are prone to alteration between castings. It is as much possible for the contents to be a blank void as a volatile memory. Once successfully deployed, the insides of this "Domain" come under the caster's rough control. Depending on the environment and the clarity of the caster's memory, the Domain may be filled with a variety of assets or hazards. And despite being a mere replication, the things it manifests are no mere illusions, quite capable of doing harm to those inside, if generally to a lesser degree than the real ones. Escaping the Domain is simple in theory. Disabling the caster will cause it to immediately collapse. It is also an immense chakra hog, best only used as a last resort. If the caster cannot accomplish anything meaningful with it quickly, they will soon lose the strength to maintain it at all. Furthermore, the Domain can be disrupted by the presence of too much invasive chakra; the more spiritual energies other than the caster's own that pollute the Domain, the more chakra it requires to remain stable. Hence, it is most efficient to limit the number of people brought inside, even if they are allies. As an example, the detonation of a Tailed Beast Ball would almost certainly collapse the Domain in one shot. When the jutsu ends, the sealing formula used to launch it will retract back into a dormant state on the caster's body, and everyone within the barrier will be returned to where they were prior to entering it.

[b]Sealing Coder:[/b] Kasumi is a proficient purveyor of Fuinjutsu enough so that she is able to recognize the underlying math and patterns in the works of others and translate it into her own formula, through which she is capable of studying, manipulating, dismantling or even repairing sealing formula other than her own. Were she so inclined, she could further make a passable attempt at hacking Chakratech; though she lacks the proficiency of a specialist in that particular realm. [b]Single-Seal Jutsu:[/b] Thanks to her Inner, Kasumi is able to offload the majority of the chakra molding process to her other half when casting jutsu, allowing her to cast the vast majority of jutsu with a single hand-seal, sometimes less, given that a number of her jutsu were developed from the ground-up to forgo them.
