[OOC] Naruto: Revival

[Mage]

@Project like the character. Well done, welcome to the RP

@Seraphicide

Alright, thanks!

[Spanner]

@Seraphicide@Syn
Here's the base version of the character, probably lacking some proofreading but nothing expressive enough to make the sheet unreadable.

Still, I kind of made his background in a whim and had to depend on guessing for quite a few things, so... Pray tell me if I need to change something.

Hikaru

Uncovered

Name:
Hikaru
Alias:
Iwagakure's Crimson Fiend
Real Age:
21
Age Appearance:
Late Teens
Gender:
Male
Rank:
Chunin - Jonin Candidate (B - A)
Sexuality:
Heterosexual
-----------------------------------------------------------
Personality:
For those who see him during mission, Hikaru is clearly an stern, overly serious individual without any especially expressive mannerisms and a tendency of not only covering most of his face but also lacking any expression in the visible apart his face. He often acts in a calm, detached way and appears to be ridiculously cold and merciless, favouring efficiency over useless blabbering and often acting in a machine-like way when making decisions, appearing to regard success as being above his comrades during his missions.

Surprisingly, the same individual completely change when he's outside of missions, as he appears to be, in fact, an extremely carefree individual motivated by nothing other than his own sense of amusement and an amazing ability of attracting trouble to himself, being often seen as unpredictable and even crazy. In private, Hikaru is known to be extremely easygoing, being able to easily interact with pretty much anyone as long as he feels that it would be interesting to do so and hardly showing anything that slightly resembles discomfort or awkwardness. He also appears to hardly hold the other party position as important, talking in the same informal way with anyone and hardly showing any special respect for someone, independently of their position.

Above all, in despite of what is suggested by the behaviours he often assumes, Hikaru is surprisingly sharp individual and possess an intelligence away higher than the norm, having quite the calculative side under all the irreverent behaviour and having a tendency of calculating every act that he takes, even when they seem to be done on a whim. In an even more contrasting way to his excessively friendly behaviour, Hikaru hardly makes true bonds with people in despite of acting like everyone is his friend and holds the few people he considers as true friends in the highest regard, being loyal to the point of regarding the safety of his loved ones above his loyalty to the village.

Village:
Iwagakure

Background:
In the current era of peace, people love to brag about how the whole world is peaceful and harmonic all thanks to the fifth hokage, the central figure that managed to create such an utopic world, full of happiness and prosperity. What they often forgot to remember, though, is that peace doesn't maintain itself for long even in the most ideal situation: The shinobi are bound to conflicts no matter how they try to avoid that - the only method to avoid the war is eliminating the roots of conflict while they're still young, and that requires the presence of groups that will never know peace even in peaceful times.

"Now what's the need of such an ominous introduction?" you may ask. Well, that's easy to answer: Hikaru's tale is completely tied to one of those groups - The Iwagakure Explosion Corps, one of the most well known paramilitary corps in the whole world and one of the few that were still active in the now peaceful era, acting to suppress focus of conflict happening near the Land of Earth.

Born from the union of two members of this infamous organization, Hikaru was introduced to the harsh side of the world since a young age as not only his Kekkei Genkai automatically made him a potential member of the corps but his own parents approved showing how the world truly worked to the child, never failing to show him how inherently ruthless the shinobi world truly was - having absolutely no qualms about forcing a few to sacrifice themselves to maintain their beloved peace - and wholeheartedly preparing him to face such a harsh world. By the time he became a Genin, Hikaru was already more than prepared to face his future: He would follow his parents footsteps into the corps.

He finally completed his goal by the age of 12, when he "finally" managed to sucessfully become a Chunin and thus earned the qualification to officialy join the corps and accompany his parents in their missions, willingly diving into the darker side of the world to make his family proud and earning a bloody reputation for himself since a young age.

This bloody lifestyle ended pretty abruptly thought, as by age of 18 - when he already had developed a fearsome reputation common to those of the explosion corps - the now already highly experienced Hikaru resigned from the explosion corps after an specific incident: The death of his parents and a fair ammount of veteran members of the corps during one of their missions for the corps and the subsequent disbanding of the organization. It has to be said that while not exactly common, it wasn't that rare for a member of the explosion corps to face their demise - they were, after all, a militaristic group supposed to suppress open upheavals, that the ANBU groups, focused in maintaining peace from the shadows, couldn't resolve and, as such, acted more as soldiers than true shinobi - and even Hikaru, one of the youngest members, already had experienced such situations, hardly fearing such a fate for himself, but the occasion of his parents death was considerably more impacting to the young man for a single reason: with most of the veteran members gone, the corps lacked the number of experienced shinobi to effectively work as a militaristic group, what made the higher ups decide that maintaing such an expensive force wasn't worth it, ultimately disbanding it and annexing some of its members to the ANBU based on how adequate their abilites would be for the organization.

Faced by such a sudden notice and regarded as unfitting for the ANBU due to already having a considerable reputation and lacking the ability to effectively hide his abilities, the young man was forced to find a new path for himself, ultimately deciding to find somewhere were he could truly make the difference... and failing miserably. Due to his upbringing and former lifestyle, Hikaru was completely incapable of living as a normal shinobi in such a peaceful era for all he knew was how to fight, being unable to complete the banal tasks executed by the normal shinobis of his village and thus being unable to adapt to his now peaceful lifestyle, being forced to live by using the sizeable inheritance left by his parents as well as his own economies to live as a normal person, hardly completing a mission for the subsequent three years.

The opportunity to change his situation came relatively quickly though, as the announcement of the first Jonin Exams in a long while gave him the opportunity to prove himself and possibly change his boring lifestyle, since as a jounin he'd have access to missions fitting his abilities and may even be designed as the leader of a team - what could certainly make his daily life more amusing.

Common Tools:
Kunai, Shuriken, Explosive Tags.

Weapons

Name of Weapon:
Umbrella
Description:
A custom made item with the appearance of a simple oil-paper umbrella, this weapon lacks any of the excessively developed characteristics and hidden weapons normally included in this kind of device by its normal users - generally shinobi from amegakure - having the sole characteristic of being ridiculously resistant - though not indestructible - to either physical or elemental based attacks, being normally used by Hikatu as a blunt weapon and shield of some sort.
Appearance:
A normal purple colored oil-paper umbrella.

Chakra Nature:
Earth, Lightning, Explosion.
Kekkei Genkai:
Explosion Release
Special Traits:
- Superhuman Durability: Hikaru's body seems to be abnormally sturdy when compared to a normal human, being able to take an absurd amount of damage before finally being put down and even requiring and being generally immune to weaker poison and anesthetic drugs. He often makes use of this trait to use his Kekkei Genkai to propel his own body in despite of the damage that doing this cause to his limbs.
- Impressive Physical Strength: While this is nowhere as impressive as his natural durability, Hikaru has an abnormally high physical strength due to his condition as a Taijutsu user.

@Thecrash20

We're pretty much always accepting at the moment.

@Spanner

Niceeuu! I'll accept it. Welcome to the RP.

@Thecrash20

We're always open just come on down, you're the next contestant on the price is right.

We're pretty much always accepting at the moment.

@Reflection

Awesome! I'm going to make a char sheet, but I have a few questions for the GMs @Syn before I waste time making something im not sure of. I like going with stuff unique so will Dark Release (Especially the Chimera Technique) be allowed?

[CaliforniaState]

@Thecrash20

While we do encourage unique and innovative KG and Abilities, Dark Release/Chimera wouldn't be one of them. Although feel free to ask more questions.

[Reflection]

Awesome! I'm going to make a char sheet, but I have a few questions for the GMs @Syn before I waste time making something im not sure of. I like going with stuff unique so will Dark Release (Especially the Chimera Technique) be allowed?

@Thecrash20

Unfortunately no. See, the issue with Dark Release and the Chimera Technique is that they just cause bickering, arguing, and are both easily breakable. The Chimera technique would never be allowed on a chunin-Genin, and Dark Release is kinda absolute in its defense against ninjutsu. (And don't get me started on all the bickering the chakra absorbing seal that nagato uses has caused. Same basic principle.)

Namine Akizakura

Name: Namine Akizakura
Age|Gender: 37|Female
Alliance: Konohagakure
Rank: S - Jounin
Clan: The Akizakura clan, named for the cosmos flower which symbolizes order, beauty, and balance, traits found in many of the Akizakura clan, especially their women. They are known for having strawberry blonde, blonde or sometimes even dark red hair, either wavy or straight. The women's role is anything but just a caregiver in this clan, as the Akizakura are a clan that has had to defend themselves from persecution more than once, and are masters of the art of deception and self-defense. Their unique Kekkei Genkai allows them to fool and deceive their opponents very easily, but requires a quelled ego and a witty mind. Few members of the Akizakura actually possess the Jibun no Shindo, and even fewer can master it.

The Jibun no Shindo originated in a woman born before the first Shinobi war, but after the dawn of Ninshuu. The woman was Kagome Akizakura, a balanced woman of great strength who preached that women were just as good of fighters as men were, as many women felt their place was at home playing the role of a caregiver. Kagome agreed only with the point of women being excellent caregivers, as she herself was a mother who embraced her maternal instincts and spread love to everyone she met. She was a beautiful soul, and had a flawless body to match. However, she preached that women should not be subservient in a Shinobi society due to their maternity, rather it gave them the strength to be some of the greatest Kunoichi ever. The maternal instinct and the nature of wanting to protect what one loves, especially one's children, she taught that these emotions of love were the most powerful weapons any Shinobi could learn to utilize.

This was not all. Along with embracing one's own emotions to be utilized as strength, she spoke of tolerance and understanding, that the emotions of others were a product of their experiences, and people did not choose to be how they were, they merely act based on how they view a situation. Kagome taught compassion and empathy, to learn from others' perspectives and to take strength from them as well, for the world was not to be experienced alone. She said that the world itself had a soul, just like each human did. And the soul of the universe was within us all, we simply had to find it. She said that each and every object and organism of the universe had its own soul, memories and purpose here. Kaguya had the insight to be able to see into objects and discern their past leading up to the present, and was able to discern how situations would unfold based off of the emotion's of others around her. She became so in tune with the souls of those around her that she could temporarily blend her own soul with them, assimilating them as part of herself. She spoke of the process in which we all touch each other's souls upon meeting in some form, and that each person you interact with retains a part of you from that interaction, and with each successive interaction the part of you that is in them will grow. And so Kagome lived by these beliefs, and collected parts of all the souls she came across, and so she loved them, just as she loved her family.

Thus, the Akizakura clan was born. To her daughter, and her granddaughter, and her great granddaughter, until she passed, she taught to embrace their emotions and to always be weary of the emotions of others. And so, every woman that was born throughout her lineage was birthed with the gift to be in tune with one's own soul, and to be in tune with the souls of others and of the world around them.

Kekkei Genkai: Jibun no Shindo (Vibration of Oneself) - This is a powerful Kekkei Genkai centered around energy and emotions. All who possess this Kekkei Genkai are extremely empathic by nature and can literally feel others' emotions when they are near them. When the wielder of this Kekkei Genkai builds a strong bond with another person or animal, they can feel strong emotions come from them from very far away, and in return those who connect with an Akizakura will feel surges of emotion from them occasionally. This causes confusion in young Akizakura who are not used to feeling such strong emotional tides, and often takes years of getting used to to be able to discern the emotions apart from one another.

Beyond feeling just mere emotions, anyone possessing the Jibun no Shindo is capable of feeling another's energy in various forms, most notably the ability to feel their chakra and changes in one's chakra without even having to look at them. With this, Akizakura are some of the most skilled sensors in the world as they can track down individual chakra signatures over vast distances as long as they have 'felt' their chakra presence before and are also human lie detectors in the manner of detecting subtle differences in one's body and chakra when they lie. Those possessing the Jibun no Shindo can feel the heartbeats and presences of others around them, and can feel various forms of chakra. For example, an Akizakura with this Kekkei Genkai can feel the chakra nature of someone they are near, for each person's chakra is unique. In the same rite, they can feel when they are in a Genjutsu due to the chakra disturbances in their body and in the area. This level of awareness can be very overwhelming at times, especially when emotions run high and there is a lot going on around them. However it is a blessing, as the Akizakura are nearly always aware of their surroundings due to their ability to feel and process the energy of the atmosphere, limited only by how much control and progression they have with their Kekkei Genkai. The connections the user develops with this Kekkei Genkai are for life, so once they have registered a person's unique chakra signature and felt their energy, they can track them over great distances. The range of their Kekkei Genkai is only limited by the user's concentration and personal skill with Jibun no Shindo.

This Kekkei Genkai is unique in the way that some Akizakura have developed it. Users are able to feel objects and 'empathize' with them, literally assimilating part of the substance into their own body and taking on its properties via a connection between the physical energy of the object and the user. e.g. the user touches metal and assimilates it into their arm, giving their arm metallic properties for a short duration, or until the user willfully cancels it. This gives birth to hundreds of possibilities, and by assimilating with the Chakra of another they are able to gain insight into their abilities. The assimilation aspect is hard to control and due to this, young Akizakura may only assimilate parts of their body with objects at a time, and cannot perform full-body assimilations just yet, nor can they perform multiple assimilations at once.

A very special trait of this Kekkei Genkai, which only a fraction of those who are born with the Jibun no Shindo are then also born with this, is the ability to feel deep connections within entities through mere touch by assimilating part of their chakra and soul into them, forming a deep bond where the user unifies themselves with the entity. For example, when the wielder of this unique trait touches a sword, they will gain the knowledge of all who have wielded the sword, and knowledge of all battles that sword has taken part in, and the events leading to how the sword is where it is now. This skill is emotionally overwhelming as it transfers memories and experiences into the user rapidly, which is a portal for negative emotions and positive emotions alike into the user. As such, it cannot be used continuously as it drains the user's mental energy. When used on another person the amount of knowledge and experience seen from them depends on how long contact is established, as such small periods of contact will only allow for a light form of insight into the energy of the person, like clues about their past and personality, and their nature as human beings. Long periods of contact allow for a much deeper connection to be established, similar to seeing another's life through their point of view, however this cannot be done to immediately gain skills or techniques from another, as it would still require first-hand practice in order to learn anything they have been given insight to, akin to learning in theory but not learning through personal application to said concepts.

Traits: All of Namine's accomplishment stems from her humbleness amid a garden of brilliance. She is collectively aware of herself and her surroundings simultaneously. She passively feels the energy of everything around her. She is revered as a master of chakra control and a healer of the body an soul. She is extremely quick and agile in both body and wits, equating to her balanced swordsmanship. Her chakra reserves are about average.

Appearance:

Personal Data

History: Namine was born during turbulent times. The Akizakura clan did not have much of a name for itself, as their abilities included much deception and avoidance of combat unless necessary. Despite those facts, the Akizakura, specifically their women, were targeted for their unique skills and were seen as a threat when they collaborated their abilities. In a clan full of sensors, you'd think they had each other's backs and could stay out of trouble. This was not the case as some might have liked to think... During the Second Great War most of the Akizakura were exterminated by other villages out of fear, or by one other group in particular. The survivors were thrown on the run or into hiding. When they could not hide, the clan members proudly stood together in the face of danger.

Namine's father died in the first massacre of the Akizakura. Her mother took her, a young girl at the age of seven who at the time who could not hide herself, and the Nuru-Kukan no Tachi away from their home of Konohagakure. They were on the run for a while, and it was hard to keep away from those who hunted them as they had no true place to call home. Her mother was a valiant woman who vowed to protect her daughter with her life. The love of her mother kept her alive, and she memorized the warm feeling of love that her mother brought her with her Kekkei Genkai.

The women of the Akizakura are strong, maternal caregivers, full of love and charity. These traits were passed down to Namine, in addition to the balance and beauty that her mother was known for. Namine's mother was the matriarch of the clan at the time, so her face was well-known in some parts of the country. She did her best to hide her daughter, they hid for years, but it was not enough. She could sense the impending doom drawing nearer each day, and eventually made the toughest decision of her life. She relinquished possession of Namine over to an orphanage, explaining to the young girl that she must hide herself at whatever cost, for she was a unique soul that was meant to bring love into a new era of the Shinobi world. She promised that one day Namine would never have to hide her identity, and that she would be one to usher in a new order to the world.

Her mother was found and was killed, not before putting up the fight of her life. She fought without Nuru-Kukan no Tachi, the blade that she left to her daughter. Namine grew up alone and resisted any form of connection from those around her. A few short years after her mother died, the country's political climate became somewhat stable. It was hard for her to understand, all she knew was that she had a gift that needed to be hidden from the world. Her mother's parting words stuck with her for the rest of her life, echoing through her dreams and guiding her through life with the promise of peace.

The previous Hokage managed to find Namine at the orphanage before any of those hunting her kind could. He offered her and a few other Akizakura survivors safe haven in Konoha. Sensing the man's pure intentions, she agreed. The Hokage furthered her Shinobi training and placed her into a squad led by a man that would eventually become the current Hokage.

Namine became the matriarch of the Akizakura clan by default at age seventeen. Few of her relatives that survived could be found, as they most likely fled and went into hiding. A memorial was set up for her mother, as she was a prominent figure in Konoha as a wandering medical Shinobi who often came to Konoha to deliver them herbs and teachings before the war. Namine then entered the ninja academy and was recognized as an above average student with accolades in chakra control and a knack for grasping the fundamentals of Ninjutsu.

She finished top of her class and was promoted to Chuunin after only sixteen months of dedication to her title as Genin. She viewed the opportunity of being a Kunoichi of great skill as more of an obligation. There was not a chance she was going to let her mother's will fade away, the bar was set high from birth and she would live up to her name as an Akizakura even if her identity had to remain concealed.

She was just as rigorous a worker, no- more so as a Chuunin as she matured mentally beyond her years, collecting experience and empathizing with the efforts and actions of those she had encountered along the way. She had become a master swordsman and had begun work as a medical ninja. She believed that ending suffering could be done by teaching the value of love, and this core belief became the root of her medical teachings. She was even able to come to terms with her mother's death and forgave the world for taking her family at such a young age. It was at the young age of seventeen where she found a tender compassion for the world, preceding her promotion to Jounin.

After that Namine grew into a stunning image of her mother with even greater skill as a medical kunoichi and renowned swordsman. She spent days on end alone with nothing but her sword. She would meditate in the forests with only its company and delve into the memories the sword held within. Eventually she came to know each member of her family who had wielded the sword going all the way back to Kagome Akizakura. In fact, she spent so much time training and meditating with Nuru-Kukan no Tachi she was shown a vision of its birth and creation. Before that moment, she was told by her mother that everything had a soul, even inanimate objects. She did not fully grasp that concept until knowing how her ancestors' sword was born. It was pulled directly from nothing, a point of zero energy, by none other than Kagome herself, and given form and life using the principles of Yin and Yang. At that precise moment she felt a pensive connection between her and the sword, as if the soul of Nuru-Kukan was acknowledging her soul and her ownership of the blade as a true swordsman. This was a key event in her development as seeing the principles of Yin and Yang in action through her Kekkei Genkai gave her a new perspective on medical ninjutsu as well as her swordsmanship.

Namine gained a newfound respect for life, nature and all that occupied this plane of existence. She studied long and hard on the aspects of Yin and Yang and the roles they played in the world. This knowledge of life that was gifted to her led to a deep appreciation of nature and so she started a garden next to the grave site of the Akizakura clan. After beginning the garden and filling it with all different types of plants and flowers she felt it was still lacking, and in her mind a new path opened when she became aware of the void in her garden. The garden was her life, and it had an emptiness to it. There were no conflictions in her mind, Namine left that very day and spent her twenties all the way into her early thirties traveling the world in search for philosophical meaning in the world.

She met hundreds of people during these beautiful years, experiencing bounds of love and finding peace within herself, a certain kind of calmness overtook her during this journey. A type of gratefulness for her life that kept her content at all times, never needing more than what was given to her and never needing to rush anywhere. Her patience peaked, and she easily empathized with all the concerns and troubled of everyone she met. Whilst traveling and gaining knowledge and helping others she also collected hundreds upon hundreds of species of plants, making journeys back to her garden at home when she could to bring the many new species back to her home in Konoha.

When she felt whole and complete inside, and had grown comfortable with only herself and Nuru-Kukan, she finally returned home to a radiant, lively garden. It was beautiful with all the colors of the rainbow fitting in somewhere in her garden, so many intoxicating aromas drifting from her plants, and some colorful poisons lurking in the corners of her garden. Now thaat she had returned home, Namine settled down and became a teacher of philosophy, medicine, and a well-known kenjutsu specialist. She agreed to take any student willing to learn and adapt to her teachings. Namine currently lives in a cottage on the outskirts of Konoha, not directly inside of the village. Her garden and the gravesite of her ancestors is behind her home. She took up a position with the Empire due to her sense of order and duty to her people, but question some of their methods and intentions, as she has never blindly accepted authority.

Personality: Namine is a shy woman, though it does not seem this way due to her constant connection with the internal world, and her Kekkei Genkai being a bridge from the external world into her internal mind. She constantly switches between the two, from taking in all of the energy around her, to withdrawing herself into her own little bubble. She is pensive, forming opinions of others and scenarios based on not only her thoughts and emotions but from the emotions that others give off pertaining to what she is thinking about. She views the world as an analytical web spun from exchanges of energy.

She is a very aware woman who does not miss a beat, keeping up in conversation easily due to her ability to anticipate others' actions based on their feelings and body language, which her sensory abilities remind her of often. Her analytical mind only hinders her when she is alone and her thoughts are left to race each other in circles, leading to over-analyzing and occasional bouts of depression. Deep down, she is a strong girl mentally who deals with tragedy well. Due to her Jibun no Shindo she is highly capable of dealing with her emotions and counseling others with theirs.

Her clairvoyant ability to feel the memories of those who she comes into contact with either through personal connection or the assimilation of objects gives her knowledge and wisdom beyond her years, and is often thought to be much older than she truly is because of this. She is very outgoing from her years traveling as a ronin medic and takes on new experience with an open heart. She is full of love straight down to the core, and enjoys spreading this love very much, while she is not hesitant to guard it from evil who seek to destroy it.

Combat Style: Namine remains distant from combat as a medical nin. Her sensory and emotional abilities are better used at a distance, not engaged directly in battle. Some think she is unskilled in the art of combat, but that cannot be further from the truth. All Akizakura women are instructed in self-defense, and Namine has embraced that aspect of her clan. She was first taught deception, how to avoid battle, before being taught how to mentally and physically deal with confrontation. While she is a fragile woman, her agility and reflexes are her strong suits when it comes to battle. Namine may be more suited as a sensor but she can hold her own in a hand to hand bout. She is stern and determined, never losing focus of her opponents. She combines this with the nimble gracefulness of her personality, coordinating them to create an elegant form of combat.

Saikan Chushutsu no Jutsu

Jutsu Name: Sakuzuke Ne (Planting Roots)
Jutsu Type: Sensory Ninjutsu
Rank: C-A
Effective Range: The range of Jibun no Shindo
Nature Type: N/A
Description: Upon placing a small portion of the user's chakra into a person or object, an Akizakura using the Jibun no Shindo can feel the location of where their chakra is at all times, meaning this technique is used to track objects and people that she has become a part of by placing her chakra within them, forming a bond of physical energy from the object and the Akizakura's spiritual energy. More skilled Akizakura can use this technique to obtain visual images of where the object/person sharing the bond is, or to obtain sensory information from the area.

By assimilating her chakra with another person, she is able to gain insight into their emotions, taking them on as if they were her own. These feelings must be balanced out within the user in order to correctly deal with them and keep her mind in order. In addition to feeling the emotions of the other, she is able to track their whereabouts by sensing the chakra within them. This allows for the simple application of certain Genjutsu as their is already a chakra connection established.
Drawbacks: Usefulness of the technique depends on the skill of the user and their progression with the Jibun no Shindo.

Jutsu Name: Chishikiji Douka (Information Tree Assimilation)
Jutsu Type: Ninjutsu
Rank: B-S
Effective Range: Touch
Nature Type: N/A
Description: The user of the Jibun no Shindo is able to touch an object and feel its properties, as members of this clan believe everything that has matter, has a soul. Thus by assimilating them into their own body they may borrow these properties for a short while via a connection between the object's physical energy and her spiritual energy. These borrowed aspects can be almost anything, and allow the user a variety of options in the midst of a fight.
Drawbacks: One assimilation requires a constant drain of chakra, multiple or full-body assimilations put strain on both the user's physical body as well as their mind due to the joint bond created by each assimilation

Jutsu Name: Itowohiku (Pulling the Strings)
Jutsu Type: Genjutsu
Rank: D-S
Effective Range: The range of Jibun no Shindo
Nature Type: N/A
Description: The ability of an Akizakura to force their will and emotions upon others after performing hand seals, for simple thoughts/emotions only a one-handed seal is necessary. By empathizing with someone, she can transfer subtle thoughts, suggestions and emotions to their being. These effects can be resisted but due to the subtle nature of this Genjutsu it is hard to realize that a Genjutsu is being afflicted. Skilled users can create entire scenarios in victims' heads that lead them to a set conclusion that feels logically sound, leading to deceptive illusions.
Drawbacks: It is a matter of willpower and awareness

Jutsu Name: Ryuutai Koudan (Fluid Story-Telling)
Jutsu Type: Genjutsu
Rank: D-S
Effective Range: The range of Jibun no Shindo
Nature Type: N/A
Description: The advanced addendum to Itowohiku, requiring three hand seals to activate. This technique allows the user to create an illusion based off of the target's emotions and desires. The illusion is very realistic in the sense that the user who is creating the illusion has the target's desires and will in mind, forming a story of sorts that the victim will play through as if it were actually happening, forming an elaborate world that the victim believes to be true. They have full sensory control as long as the victim believes the world to be true.
Drawbacks: The story will continue only as long as the enemy believes they are in reality. As soon as they logically assume the scenario is Genjutsu, it will end automatically

Jutsu Name: Shiyuuto no Uwan (Right Arm of the Believer)
Jutsu Type: Medical Ninjutsu/Fuuinjutsu
Rank: D-S
Effective Range: One yard extending from the seal
Nature Type: Yin-Yang
Description: With her knowledge of medicine and healing techniques, Namine uses an array of Fuuinjutsu to foster love and creation through her right arm which is used to mend suffering of the body and spirit, using Yin-Yang chakra to give life and form to those around her. By using this technique Namine can foster the growth of life around her, causing plants to flourish under her diligent care.
In addition to the healing aspects this seal provides she can also physically rebuild shattered objects as well, albeit slowly. She cannot animate them to life, but can reconstruct their form to her will.
Drawbacks: In addition to the concentration and chakra cost of this technique, Namine feels the suffering of all the wounds she heals.

Jutsu Name: Jimanshiya no Sawan (Left Arm of the Deceiver)
Jutsu Type: Medical Ninjutsu/Fuuinjutsu
Rank: D-S
Effective Range: One yard extending from the seal
Nature Type: Yin-Yang
Description: The antipode of her healing techniques, this seal is perhaps her deadliest combat-based medical technique. Although it has very little medical application, some believe it has none but Namine knows this to be false as it has many non-combat applications, one just has to think creatively. The antithesis of her right arm, this array of seals is arranged in a numerical complex opposite of the right arm. The first seal of this tattoo fosters her assimilation into whatever she makes contact with, and along with her Jonin no Shinzo, she is given innate insight into whatever she touches including its physical composition. The next seal in the complex is dis-assimilation at a rapid rate. It breaks the bonds holding together whatever it is she physically assimilates to from the inside out, disrupting and destroying it as she touches it. For example, if she held a stone in her hand, there would be a split second of the first seal assimilating the rock with her chakra, and immediately after the rock would explode into smaller rocks or dust, depending on the amount of chakra used by Namine to perform the technique.
Drawbacks: The range of this technique is short, it requires a strenuous, ongoing chakra cost as long as the properties are sustained. After ending the technique Namine's body is left physically weak from fatigue. This technique can only be used once every three posts and leaves the user physically in pain in addition to the fatigue felt.

Weaponry

Weaponry: On her wrists, there are tattooed generic seals that correspond with generic Shinobi tools, including but not limited to kunai, shuriken, senbon, ninja wire, explosive tags, kodachi, medical tools, flasks of water, flash bombs, smoke bombs,

Medicines and Poisons
Over the years Namine has grown a plethora of rare plants in her garden, some for decoration but most having unique healing properties that can relieve headaches, inflammations, nausea, joint and muscle pain, digestive problems, blood pressure issues and a multitude of other uses. She has found some plants so unique that they have properties capable of healing even chakratic disturbances and damage done to a person's chakra network over time.

In addition to the healing properties of plants she has also found a wonderful array of poisons at her disposal in the forms of powder, liquid and gas. She has a few favorite poisons, her signature of which being scopolamine harvested from Datura plants growing in her garden, made into pellets that explode into a cloud of the toxin. She also carries toxins that sedate motor neurons in five minutes.

Nuru-Kukan no Tachi (Null-Void Blade) - A blade passed down through the women of the Akizakura clan. The sword is very powerful, and grows with the user as it is wielded. It is never carried, merely summoned to the user's hand through a generic seal, which can be used to summon the blade regardless of its location. The blade is somewhat sentient in a way, as it contains all the memories and experiences of those who wielded it, and will give the wielder visions of those experiences and emotions over time to facilitate the growth of the wielder. Rare Akizakura members possessing the ability to 'feel' the memories of what they touch can access these memories and experiences on their own when called upon. Throughout the clan's history the sword is passed down from the oldest woman of the clan to her daughter, who is instructed to pass it onto her daughter, or in case of a woman born without daughters, to the next youngest girl in the clan. It is used for protection and growth, as a clan revolving mainly around matriarchal principles it is not abnormal to pass down such a powerful sword to young, developing kunoichi. The sword's power lies in its ability to neutralize energy. The primary function of the blade is to calm the wielder of the emotional stress put on them from their Jibun no Shindo, allowing clarity of thought amidst even the most tumultuous of situations. The blade's reputation of being incredibly powerful comes from the fact that it is ideal for disrupting and counteracting Jutsu (especially Ninjutsu) by nullifying the effects of chakra, however the blade comes at a cost. Wielding it outside of its sheathe comes with a constant chakra drain. As a practiced swordsman wielding this blade since her mother passed coupled with her stout chakra control she can wield the blade for up to fifteen minutes per day without fatigue. Anything over and Namine begins to feel physical strain and chakra exhaustion.

Miscellaneous: The name Akizakura Namine means Cosmos, A blade to drive out evil spirits

Renji

Renjiru Kurogama

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name: Renjiru Kurogama
Alias: Renji, Kesshōken - The Crystal Fist
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Rank: Chūnin - Jōnin (ANBU Hunter-nin)
Sexuality: Hetero
-----------------------------------------------------------
Personality:
An outsider, or at least that's how Renji sees himself. A sacrificial weapon. One destined to break under the Hidden Stone's increasing demand for excellence. Renji is mostly a subdued young man, heavily disciplined during his time spent growing up within the hidden monastery of his Clan; Shinkai Shūdōin. Although he rarely speaks out of turn, this doesn't put a stop to his often wild thoughts. Renji usually finds that he has to keep himself in check. His growing disillusionment with his title, and indeed his position amongst his Clan, is beginning to sow the seeds of hatred. A hatred that he doesn't yet know where to place.

This alone is enough to annoy Renji, however, you'd be hard-pressed to see it on his face. Renji is masterful at hiding his emotions, something he has perfected during his time as a member of Iwagakure's ANBU Black Ops.

Village: Iwagakure

History/Background:
The Kurogama Clan aren't a widely known clan amongst the populous of the Hidden Stone Village, or indeed the Land of Earth itself. In fact, it is rumoured that they aren't even originally from the Land of Earth, but the Land of Bears instead. In any case the Clan's presence is hardly felt within the Hidden Stone, save for a single ninja by the name of Renjiru Kurogama. His possession of the Crystal Release Kekkei Genkai is the sole reason for his Clan's minuscule notoriety. The Kurogama Clan's unfamiliar status is, in truth, exactly what they desire and they have proven themselves willing to go to extreme lengths to keep it as such.

Originating from the far north of the country, Renji was born and raised within the walls of Shinkai Shūdōin. A highly sacred and very-well hidden monastery dedicated to practice and protection of the Shōton - Crystal Release - Kekkei Genkai. Renji was merely three years old when he was selected as a candidate to be the next Kesshōken - The Crystal Fist. For the following ten years, Renji was trained in the arts of Ninjustu and Taijutsu. Day after day he was bruised, beaten and broken by his trainers, the Abyssal Monks, who presided over everyone within the monastery walls. He ate, slept and trained alongside his fellow candidates and they were often pitted against each other in sparring matches.

Only the strong would survive and after ten long years of brutal training and punishment, the total number of viable candidates was eventually whittled down to three; Renji, Gibari and Talia. The rest either died from the training or went on to serve the monastery as future Abyssal Monks. Thirteen was the graduation age for the candidates, however, only one could take up the mantle of Kesshōken in order to fulfill the duties that lie beyond the confines of the monastery. A three-way match was chosen to decide who would be worthy to bear the name.

Each of them fought magnificently, expertly displaying their exalted proficiency at utilizing Crystal Release techniques. All three sides looked evenly matched and the fight slowly began to drag on into the evening hours. The first candidate to fall was Gibari, his guard slipped momentarily trying to fend off Renji's attack when Talia slipped a kunai effortlessly between his ribs, their usable Chakra had long since run dry and they had been forced to finish the fight with Taijutsu alone. Gibari's failure had surprised Renji, his Taijutsu had been the best of the trio, though he didn't allow it to give him pause. Renji leapt at the opportunity to strike at Talia whilst her success was still registering.

Sweeping his foot swiftly through the rapidly growing pool of Gibari's blood, Renji managed to partially blind his foe. Talia reeled from the dirty tactic, swinging wildly with her kunai, all the while Renji began to circle for the finishing blow. Talia hastily managed to clear her vision just long enough to catch a glimpse of Renji's opening. She launched herself towards him, kunai at the ready. But the opening had been a trap and in her half-blinded state, she couldn't have known that Renji was waiting to grab her wrist, re-directing her weapon away from him, before swiftly ending the match with an elbow strike to the head.

Upon his victory, Renji was granted the title of Kesshōken and informed of his duties as well as the pilgrimage south he must make to reach Iwagakure. Shinkai Shūdōin was a monastery not unknown to the Hidden Stone Village. In fact, its' continued obscurity was often ensured by Iwagakure and the Tsuchikage themself. This is due to an ongoing agreement between them both after the Kurogama Clan's rebellion against the Hidden Stone over a century ago, in which they were beaten back and nearly driven to extinction. The agreement being that the Kurogama Clan would provide the village with a single ninja whose abilities with the Shōton style reigned undisputed every twenty years.

The chosen ninja would serve Iwagakure unwaveringly until their deaths, preferably during battle. If by the twentieth year of service the Kesshōken had managed to stay alive, it would be a requirement that the successor kill the current Crystal Fist in order to rightfully take their place amongst the Hidden Stone. Renji was fortunate enough not to have to slay his elder Clansman to begin his service. Several of the chosen would opt to join the Black Ops in order to hide their name and protect whereabouts of the monastery. Renji followed in the footsteps of his predecessors, swiftly being selected to join the Hunter-nin Corps of Iwaga's ANBU Black Ops after passing the Chūnin Exam, where he has continued to serve diligently for the past eight years.

Tools: Generic Ninja Tools

Chakra Nature: Doton - Earth Release
Shōton - Crystal Release

Kekkei Genkai: Shōton - Crystal Release ^{(Custom Version)}
Users of Crystal Release can convert varied amounts of solid matter into Crystal. From the Earth itself to other physical constructs, such as wood and metal, Crystal Release users can transform most of their immediate surroundings into weapons, shields and modes of transport. This extends to solid-state Chakra Natures such as Earth and Wood, rendering ninja of those Chakra Natures weak to this Kekkei Genkai. Crystal Release users can also manipulate pre-existing crystals and crystalline structures.

Liquid-state natures such as Water, Lava and Storm Release each have an increased resistance to crystallization due to the more random molecular structure of their jutsu, making the conversion a much lengthier and far more taxing process. As such, Crystal Release users would likely opt against converting liquids due to the extra time and Chakra it would take with little to no advantages over converting solids.

Gaseous & Energy Chakra natures such as Wind, Boil, Scorch and Explosion Releases are significantly more resistant to crystallization due to the wild molecular structure of their jutsu, with Fire and Lightning remaining unaffected completely. This is because raw energy or chakra cannot be crystallized, as they have no physical mass to crystallize, allowing those with good chakra control or Lightning/Fire natures to counter it. Crystal Release is also susceptible to a specific sound wave frequency: because Crystal requires a very precise build-up of molecules, the proper sound waves can break down the build-up before the Crystal can properly form.

When used on living beings, the crystallization rate is greatly reduced and the Chakra required vastly increased, more-so than any other state of matter, due to the innate Chakra stored within the targeted being. This gives all of the Crystal Release user's opponents a natural defense, since the Chakra itself cannot be crystallized and thus can only be contained by forcing the target's Chakra to the center of their mass by slowly converting their physical form from the outside in.

Special Traits:
- Exceptional Chakra Reserves
- Excellent Taijutsu
- Average Chakra Control
- Average Looks
- Sub-Par Communication skills _{(with females)}

Custom Jutsu

Name: Crystal Release: Abyssal Onyx Mirror
Rank: A
Range: All Ranges
Nature: Shōton
Type: Offensive, Supplementary

Effect:
Renji can crystallize the ground beneath him, up to (1 acre) in radius from his position and up to (6ft) deep. Once crystallized, the pitch-black converted earth immediately becomes difficult to traverse, due to the glassy nature of Renji’s Crystals. Since the ground has now been infused with Renji’s Chakra, he is able to manipulate and distort the reflections of himself as well as his opponents so long as they are standing on Abyssal Onyx Mirror. Renji may also manipulate the ground at will, causing spikes and fissures to erupt from beneath the feet of his targets in order to impale, bind or otherwise hinder his enemies' movement.

Activation of this Jutsu allows Renji to activate other Jutsu such as Crystal Release: Black Burial Wave and Onyx Crystal Clone Technique.

Weakness:
Seeing as this Jutsu is particularly widespread, the durability of Renji's Abyssal Onyx Mirror is markedly less than that of his other Crystal constructs. As such, any A-Ranked (and above) Explosive or Blunt-force Jutsu that targets the ground directly can heavily damage or even destroy the Abyssal Onyx Mirror, converting the earth back to its' original state. Jutsu of the same type but lower in rank may take considerably more time and effort due to the sheer size of the Jutsu itself.

Due to Crystal Release's inherent weakness to Fire and Lightning Chakra natures, even lower ranked Jutsu of these nature types may be able to discard of the Abyssal Onyx Mirror with relative ease.

The sheer size of this jutsu gives it a vastly extended cast time (2 posts), whereby Renji must remain stationary as he crystallizes the ground beneath him. Any interruption made during the casting of this technique will cause it to fail instantly, wasting a massive amount of Chakra

In regards to dodging, the main things to dodge would be the spikes/fissures after the Jutsu has been cast, though they aren't instantaneous attacks. If anything they're supposed to be used to catch an opponent off-guard in order to setup for another attack or Jutsu. Therefore most, if not all, Chuunin-level ninja & above should be able to dodge them quite simply under completely normal circumstances. It's possible for an opponent to escape the crystallized area using whichever mobility/flight Jutsu they prefer or by simply climbing any structure or tree that might populate the area.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Name: Crystal Release: Black Burial Wave
Rank: A
Range: Mid-Range
Nature: Shōton
Type: Offensive, Supplementary

Effect:
Renji may perform this Jutsu only once he has activated Crystal Release: Abyssal Onyx Mirror. Upon activation of this Jutsu, Renji's Crystals begin to envelop any opponent within range who is also touching Abyssal Onyx Mirror, immobilizing them almost instantaneously, all the while restricting the movement of their upper body as his Crystals begin to cover them entirely. Not only that, but the technique begins to slowly drag its' prey beneath the surface of Abyssal Onyx Mirror. Repeated struggling only seems to accelerate the process, whilst also enabling Renji to gradually crystallize his opponents by forcing the target's Chakra to the center of their mass and converting them from the outside in.

Weakness:
Due to this Jutsu's heavy dependency on Crystal Release: Abyssal Onyx Mirror, Black Burial Wave can be destroyed alongside its' parent Jutsu. Not only that, but it is also far less durable than Abyssal Onyx Mirror, making it easily stopped by offensive Jutsu of lower ranks.

Like all Crystal Release Jutsu, Black Burial Wave possesses an inherent weakness to Fire and Lightning Chakra natures.
-----------------------------------------------------------

Name: Crystal Release: Black Burial
Rank: A
Range: Short to Mid-Range
Nature: Shōton
Type: Offensive, Supplementary

Effect:
A scaled down version of Crystal Release: Black Burial Wave. This version, however, doesn't require the activation of Crystal Release: Abyssal Onyx Mirror. Renji may perform this Jutsu on only one target within range, focusing most of his Chakra to increase its' speed and durability.

First, Renji must calculate the exact position of his opponent before crystallizing the ground beneath them. As soon as his opponents touch the crystallized ground, the Jutsu begins to envelop them, gradually immobilizing them as his Crystals grow further and further. Once the target is stopped, the Jutsu may then begin to drag its' prey beneath the surface of the Earth. Repeated struggling only seems to accelerate the process, whilst also enabling Renji to gradually crystallize his opponents by forcing the target's Chakra to the center of their mass and converting them from the outside in.

Weakness:
Despite being far more durable than Crystal Release: Black Burial Wave, Black Burial is still susceptible to Explosive and Blunt-force Jutsu of equal or greater rank. Not only this, but the concentration required to predict where a target is going to be remains rather challenging and, as such, opponents that are able to move at high-speeds are particularly difficult to catch using this jutsu.

Like all Crystal Release Jutsu, Black Burial possesses an inherent weakness to Fire and Lightning Chakra natures.
-----------------------------------------------------------

Name: Onyx Crystal Clone Technique
Rank: B
Range: Mid-Range
Nature: Shōton
Type: Supplementary

Effect:
By using either Crystal Release: Abyssal Onyx Mirror or Crystal Release: Onyx Crystal Mirror as a medium, Renji can make clones of himself emerge from their mirrored surfaces. Due to being made of Crystal, they can endure more damage than a Shadow Clone. These clones are also able to deceive Byakugan users because of their reflective nature, but by focusing their sight, this can be circumvented.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Name: Crystal Release: Onyx Crystal Dragon
Rank: B
Range: Long-Range
Nature: Shōton
Type: Offensive, Supplementary

Effect:
Renji uses crystallized earth to create a large serpent-like dragon, which he then uses as a means to travel. When used offensively, Renji can create multiple dragons to attack or bind his opponents from multiple directions.

When used in conjunction with Crystal Release: Abyssal Onyx Mirror, Renji can create several more dragons albeit at a much smaller size. The technique is generally used this way to combat multiple opponents at once.

Weakness:
Renji can only create up to (3) dragons when used normally. When used with Abyssal Onyx Mirror, he can create up to (9). Like all Crystal Release Jutsu, Onyx Crystal Dragon possesses an inherent weakness to Fire and Lightning Chakra natures.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Name: Crystal Release: Onyx Chrysalis
Rank: B
Range: Short-Range
Nature: Shōton
Type: Defensive

Effect:
Renji uses this technique to envelop himself in dense Onyx Crystals in order to protect himself. This is easily his most durable technique and may even withstand attacks from some offensive Jutsu of higher ranks. Once the danger has passed, Renji can discard the technique at will.

When used in conjunction with Crystal Release: Abyssal Onyx Mirror, the cast time is moderately reduced. However, what Renji makes up in cast time, he sacrifices in durability.

Weakness:
This particular Jutsu renders Renji stationary, forcing him to try and withstand an attack head on. Despite its' high durability factor, Onyx Chrysalis can still be heavily affected by Fire & Lightning Jutsu and, in some cases, even completely destroyed.

The cast time for this Jutsu is not instantaneous, meaning that Renji could not use Onyx Chrysalis as a last resort block. The Crystals themselves take time to completely envelop Renji due to their density.
-----------------------------------------------------------

Name: Crystal Release: Onyx Crystal Mirror
Rank: C
Range: Mid-Range
Nature: Shōton
Type: Defensive, Supplementary

Effect:
Renji creates a large pitch-black mirror which he can then use to perform the Onyx Crystal Clone Technique.

This technique may also be used in a defensive manner by Renji to confuse his opponents mid-attack, by materializing the Onyx Crystal Mirror directly in front of his own position or that of his opponent's, showing either party's reflection as dictated by him.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Name: Crystal Release: Onyx Armour
Rank: C
Range: Short-Range
Nature: Shōton
Type: Offensive, Defensive

Effect:
This technique allows Renji to cover his skin with a thin sheet of Crystal that improves his defense against physical attacks. This armour can also aid him to perform stronger physical attacks. The Crystal is transparent and can only be noticed by light reflecting off it.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Name: Crystal Release: Onyx Armour - Abyssal Gauntlets
Rank: C
Range: Short-Range
Nature: Shōton
Type: Offensive

Effect:
An advanced version of Crystal Release: Onyx Armour, Renji creates a pair of dense Crystal gauntlets that greatly increase the power of his melee strikes.

Weakness:
This jutsu possesses a time limit for how long they can be used. The gauntlets also take damage reflective of how much power is used per strike. Their damage output is reduced when used against Fire or Lightning Jutsu.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Name: Crystal Release: Onyx Crystal Tunneling
Rank: D
Range: Long-Range
Nature: Shōton
Type: Supplementary

Effect:
Renji surrounds himself with Chakra before tunneling beneath the ground, by crystallizing it, to reach a new position of his choosing. This Jutsu affords Renji a relative amount of stealth depending on how deep he decides to tunnel as well as a very effective means of escape.

Renji may also use this Jutsu in conjunction with Crystal Release: Abyssal Onyx Mirror. When he chooses to do so, the speed and stealth of his relocation is greatly improved, giving some of Renji's opponents the impression that he is capable of teleportation.

【Birthplace】

Mudvillage - a village between Kumogakure, Sunagaure and Konohagakure that would later become the birthplace of Amegakure.

【Clan/Bloodline】

【Rank】

Chunin

【Chakra Nature】

Primary:
Katon.

Secondary:
Suiton.

Tertiary:
Doton.

【Appearance/Wardrobe】

Sakana frequently dresses in more or less standard Konohagakure garb for chunin. He prefers to wear black wifebeaters with his flak vest over it, with skin tight gloves that reach all the way up to his biceps. It leaves just a tiny bit of his shoulder uncovered. Similarly his gloves have finger cutouts so he can still use his feeling senses to work. Not like Shinobi are known for their understanding of fingerprints anyway, so it's not like he has to worry about leaving fingerprints during his work.

He wears the standard shinobi slacks with shinobi footwear. It's standard issue and thus, standard wear for him. During his freetime he slips into something more casual like a sweater and slacks, but overall he doesn't really find himself pre-occupied with fashion.

On the other hand he takes good care of his body - not just in terms of fitness, but also in less direct ways. Combing his hair, washing it, all that stuff is something Sakana (and the entire Uragiri clan for that matter) takes great care and pride in. Something interesting for you to know, I suppose.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

【Personality】

Sakana is somewhat of an asshole to those that aren't used to him. He has a rather straightforward approach to everything because in his eyes and mind the outcome is already predetermined by the Sage of the Six Paths, and therefore being courteous, subtle or anything but direct will only lead to a waste of time. Of course, some people's fate is to be subtle and courteous - but there's a difference between being who you are, and falsely being friendly, coy or diplomatic. If you want something - ask for it. If you are going to do something - do it. This goes for anything - from setting a cup of tea to calligraphy to killing a man.

It is no surprise that this siphoned into his personality - he is straight forward, direct and will generally do what he wants whether you approve or disprove of it. Fate is sealed - fighting it only makes you worse at your job. It is a philosophy that is otherwise not very prevalent in Konohagakure - or even the Uragiri clan as a whole - but it is one he came to after deep pondering with a much older, experienced man who said he has seen the Sage of the Six Paths himself after a session of deep meditation. He told Sakana of fate and it's connection to the sage and the wheels of time - was there really any other conclusion to draw than 'fate is sealed'?

Although Sakana is far from a bloodthirsty shinobi who has no problems killing and who doesn't feel a shred of emotion whenever a companion or enemy dies, he is certainly not a very emotional person and thus has no quarrel in committing the act itself. Fate is sealed after all and death is part of fate. Separation of emotion from work is a very dangerous thing and Sakana realizes that - but separation of emotion from fate is entirely natural. For fate to occur is natural and so are emotions, but to link them is intrinsically useless and brings nothing to the table.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

【History】

Sakana was born in Mudvillage, a village situated between the borders of three main villages - Sunagakure, Kumogakure and Konohagakure. The Uragiri clan itself was a clan that was only partially shinobi in nature, but it was decided that between the options of staying in Mudvillage and leaving, the best option was to leave - and between all the villages, Konohagakure seemed most willing to take on a clan that was not entirely shinobi in nature.

The Uragiri had no problems integrating despite their strange appearances, and were accepted as hard working clansmen who were willing to do any job they were handed - they were always an industrious people specializing in forestry and farming, but seemed to be almost natural craftsmen too, and it wasn't long before the Uragiri had built up a quarter of their own complete with a clan house where they performed all sorts of menial tasks for the benefit of Konohagakure as a whole.

The shinobi underwent a similar timeline, falling in line quickly and becoming a part of the shinobi forces, although their small numbers meant they made a mediocre addition at best. They were not exactly famous for their skill either, excelling only at averageness it seemed. Luckily or unluckily for Sakana, depending on your viewpoints, he was raised as a shinobi by his parents, both of whom were jonins at some point in time, and who drilled him rather hard for Uragiri standards. No, this isn't the story of a genius coming to birth by his parents forcing him to use kunais at the age of three. They were still loving parents and did their best - they just trained him really hard as well.

Partially that was because Sakana had a natural drive to improve. He was a natural at being a shinobi too and in the academy did rather well for himself, finishing in the top 10%. As a genin he did standard genin jobs for that time and saw some action, and was promoted to chunin after an incident in which he was forced to take over a leadership role after their jonin had been caught in a particularly nasty genjutsu. Although the mission failed and the targets got away with the loot, Sakana was praised for getting the jonin out of there and preventing the genjutsu from taking hold on his team. Not a particularly heroic story all things considered, but all in all a decent reason for promotion.

Now, two years later, he was finally enrolled for the jonin exams, which were sure to provide him with yet another milestone in life. He didn't worry about it, saying only that fate had been sealed and not even the greatest forces in the world could move it now. If he was destined to be a jonin, it would be so. If the Sage wills it.

【Clan history】

_{Uragiri clan symbol}

The Uragiri clan is relatively unknown, even in Konohakure. They provide mostly standard civilians in Konohakure who work in the industrial plants creating metal and tools. They all stand out, however, due to the black and yellow eyes that run in their family - any Uragiri clan member is recognizable by their eyes. This trait, while genetic, can be recessive and there are very few Uragiri clan members who do not have these eyes - but they do exist. In such a case the clan members can be identified by their clan icon, which is a set of black and white koi circling each other. The image is fitting, given that their eyes give them a somewhat fishy appearance.

The clan is primarily (90%) just pure civilians that mostly work in shops or the industry. The remaining 10% are shinobi, like Sakana. And, while they are good at what they do, they are typically not very well renowned - not because nobody likes them or so, but just because they are pretty average all together. For that, Sakana is pretty much the one exception. In doing so, he has also become the clans' pride, more or less. That in and of itself isn't saying much, because even being above-average would make you a point of pride in the Uragiri clan.

【Clan history】

Uragiri Same | Mother | 41, shinobi as part of the shinobi forces. She is currently leading her own team of genin as well.
Uragiri Sāmon | Father | 45, teacher at the shinobi academy in Konohakure. Most kids like him because he 'looks cool.' He's not a bad teacher, just a little boring. That is, if you disregard his appearance.

Ｄｅｓｃｒｉｐｔｉｏｎ

This Suiton based jutsu is the next step. Thought being trapped in a dome of earth was bad enough? WRONG! Through a hole in the top of the dome that briefly opens at the command of the user, the user then spews water into the 'soup bowl' until it's full of water. Congratulations, you'll now be drowning!

Since this is a suiton jutsu, you could possibly use wind to create a bubble of air for yourself to breathe, though it's not drowning you need to worry about. At this stage of the combo it becomes more or less impossible to use electricity to free yourself from the dome as you'd electrocute yourself. Unless you're willing to risk that. Sheer force would still be enough to break free, but since water slows down movement, it'd likely have to come from the outside.

Or another solution. Maybe you can think of something. Better hurry before the next step, which is..

Sūpu-jutsu: Sutōbu ​​o tentō

Ｒａｎｇｅ

Up to 20 meters.

Ｄｅｓｃｒｉｐｔｉｏｎ

The final step in the three jutsu combo. True to it's name, this is the step that probably is the most dangerous for whomever gets trapped. Using the Katon nature, the user lights a fire underneath the earthen soup bowl/dome that they created, beginning to boil it at an alarming and dangerous rate for whomever is inside. Drown in the soup made of your own body! Muahaha! Ahem. There is no real defence for this step, if you are trapped.

For outsiders it's possible to blow out the fire using wind jutsu, to quench it with a water jutsu, or to simply free those in the bowl with force. Electricity is possible but ill-advised since you'd probably electrocute your friends inside the bowl.

Axu the Axolotl

Ｎａｍｅ

Axu

Ｓｐｅｃｉｅｓ ａｎｄ ｓｉｚｅ

Axu is an axolotl of about 1.5 meters high, and five meters long. However, most of that is his tail. He is a bright orange with black drawings all over his body in various shapes, most notably a marking on the front of his head that reads 'Axu' in kanji. This marking seems to be entirely natural and it seems to be the case that he was named after this shape.

Ｐｏｗｅｒｓ ａｎｄ ｃａｐａｂｉｌｉｔｉｅｓ

Axu has the 'power' to produce a large amount of water from his throat by using his chakra, producing either a steady high pressure stream of water or a large waterball. Furthermore, his aquatic nature as a newt means he's extremely capable in the water and can swim extremely fast - while he is much, much slower on land. Lastly, as is the nature of axolotls, he has an extremely fast regeneration rate that he can use to heal himself (and only himself, never anyone else) extremely quickly to mend broken bones, tails that were cut off or even arms. If you want to kill him for sure, cut off the head.

Lastly he can fit up to three people in his mouth if they sit down.

(See top image)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
【Personality】
Hime isn't what one would call "smart", despite what she herself believes. She's in fact quite dull-minded and simple when it comes to most things outside of shinobi life. She tends to deny the fact that she could possibly be wrong when it comes to accomplishing simple tasks until proven wrong, but even then she'll act as if she was instead just testing whomever corrected her. Within the confines of the shinobi ways, Hime is a bit of a loose cannon as she believes her strategies are flawless and finds herself aghast if they fail. Often-times she acts on instinct more than actually thinking about it, providing a higher success rate compared to mundane, everyday tasks.

She's joyful, jubilant and jovial with the people she knows... And with those she doesn't know despite some reservations she has towards anyone asking about her parents, specifically her father. Otherwise she often brags and boasts about how great her ice moves are. Often showing off by making the local area snow, much to the chagrin of anyone nearby.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
【History】
It wasn't normal for a member of the Yuki clan, a clan that's almost exclusive to Kirigakure, to live in Konohagakure for any amount of time. But Tamamo Yuki and her daughter Hime Yuki are such members of the Yuki clan living in the leaf village. Why? Well it was initially to escape any issues that Tamamo's seniors might have had with her bearing the child of Jaakuna Aka, a renowned member of Konohagakure's shinobi forces, after a fling they shared during a joint-village mission between Konoha and Kiri.

Tamamo retired for a time whilst in Kiri to look after Hime for a while, but after Jaakuna's passing she moved to Konoha to get away from the rising suspicion about the affair between herself and Jaakuna, in tandem evading any serious questioning and investigation into her relationship with the man and Hime's heritage. Of course even with her move the curiosity followed her after word got out of Kirigakure that something did indeed happen between the two of them, despite how subtle Tamamo's arrival in Konoha was she couldn't quite escape the fact that news travelled and soon she and young Hime found themselves being questioned by those of Konoha about Jaakuna and their relationship with him. Hime may not have had the slightest of clues over who her dad was, nor did she really think about it, Tamamo was always deflecting conversation away from that topic with the coldest shoulder anyone could imagine. Whenever Hime asked the question she was always told that her father was "A beautiful man who was a gift to the world" and the answer was always the same, no matter when or where she asked.

Whilst the girl grew up she was trained privately in the shinobi arts for a few years by her mother, in order to get her ready for the academy, and to help her acclimatize herself to the way things worked in general due to Hime's remarkable lack of intellect... Not to say that she didn't learn in time, it just took her longer to learn such things, so Tamamo started teaching her early so she would start out on the same foot as the other hopeful academy entrants and give her a slight advantage over them at that.

As Hime grew up she and her mother were hassled less by those curious about the rumours behind her heritage, but there was still a great number of people asking her about Jaakuna as if she knew the details to his life despite her insistence that she never met her father, let alone this "Jaakuna" guy they kept talking about. This continued through most of her life, even up to the present day, some of them are the same old faces that ask her whilst others are new faces trying to get a golden nugget of information she just didn't have and causing a lot of undue stress on the girl.

As expected of her dull-minded nature though, she advanced through the academy at a slower rate than her peers but still made it to a level of skill and knowledge that warranted her the chance to rise in the ranks and before long maybe even become a jonin like her mother used to be. That was her biggest aspiration, to be as good a kunoichi as her mother was and even do better than her and become famous all on her own for being such a good kunoichi, the girl's enthusiasm always brought a smile to Tamamo's face no matter her mood beforehand.

Nowadays Hime lives by herself, her mother having passed on and left Hime on her own in the small house they had as she was entering her 20's, it's been a few years since then but she's been able to make a decent living with the shinobi of Konoha.

Custom Jutsu

Name of Technique: Sudden Snow Storm!
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: C
Range: Mid Range
Nature Type: Ice Release
Effect: Hime releases a large dome of ice chakra into the air around her, immediately dropping the temperature of her surroundings and causing localised snowfall to occur. This can be used in tandem with her wind techniques to whisk up an actual snow storm and obscure her opponent's field of view whilst she utilizes the snow to her advantage. This field doesn't follow her, so once it's released it remains in place for about an hour, less time if it's a warm day and more if it's cold.

Name of Technique: Ice Gun - BANG, BANG, BANG!
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: B
Range: Close
Nature Type: Ice Release
Effect: Either using ice in her surroundings or creating it from the water in the air, Hime forms the Tiger handseal with her index fingers pointed at her target and (for effect) shouts "BANG BANG BANG!" as she launches a volley of three ice bullets at her opponent. Getting hit by one of these bullets would be comparable to having a hammer thrown at you, so they are capable of causing serious damage at a close enough range.
The drawback is it's lack of major range and low accuracy, thus the need for it's close range, and her own nature in wanting to shouting at the top of her lungs as she fired her bullets.

Name of Technique: Wheeeeeeeee, fairy wings!
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu, Supplementary.
Rank: C
Range: Self
Nature Type: Ice
Effect: Hime creates a set of six icicle-like wings on her back along with a small trail of ice from her feet, using the wings and the frictionless properties of the ice beneath her feet to skate along the ground at variable speeds... Though Hime does like to go fast, so more often than not she'll be going as fast as is physically possible. At least she's well practised with it and the ice trail she leaves behind melts very quickly.

This technique can be used in tandem with with techniques, otherwise there's not much combat application to it unless she rams into people.

Kouken, Ayame

General Data

Name: Kouken(Guardian), Ayame(Iris).
Nickname/Alias: Aya.
Gender: Female.
Age: 25.
Age Appearance: 25.
Sexuality: Bisexual.

Village: Iwagakure.
Birthplace: Iwagakure.

Organization: Iwa Barrier corps.

Rank: C-B.
Position: Special Jounin.
Chakra Nature: Earth, Water, and Lightning.

Additional Appearance Details: Ayame stands at 5'5 and is a healthy weight for her height and age. She typically wears her headband around her neck as well as a necklace that she keeps hidden under her clothes. She has deep stirring purple eyes.

History: Born into the Kouken family, Ayame was perhaps doomed to a life of servitude. Lead by their elders, who had known the now almost forgotten horrors of war, the Kouken family did its part in Iwagakure, playing a huge role in maintaining its many barriers and defenses. Still, despite this her first seven years in this world were joyful ones, filled even with the birth of her younger sister. Sadly, it was after these seven years passed that her story truly began, for she was deemed talented by her tutors, and so selected to carry on the tradition of their clan's Hiden Technique, the Kinzoku Youki. Her parents, fearing for her safety and wellbeing, intially resisted, but were soon bent around the fingers of the elders and made to allow the procedure to take place.

Thus, on the day of her eighth birthday, Ayame had searing hot metal implanted into her arms, legs, hands, feet, and torso where they would stay for the rest of her life. The procedure took almost twelve hours, during which she passed out more than eight times and screamed so much that she lost her voice for a full week afterwards.

Taking quite a long time to recover, Ayame didn't have much of an appetite or will to do anything for almost a month after that. However, with rehabilitation and training she slowly recovered from the traumatic experience, coming out of it with a newfound respect for life and normalcy. With the pain having scarred her, despite her recovery, Ayame's childhood was almost certainly over. The ensuing days were spent training with the masters of the clan and being educated by the clan elders.

Ten years later, on what would have been a perfectly normal day, the lives of both sisters would change irrevocably. On that sunny day, Ayame was practicing on one of the clan's training fields, attempting to use a technique that one of her tutors was going to teach her later on, she was unaware that her younger sister had wandered onto the field. Executing the technique, she lost control and, as she turned to discharge the technique at a training post, there was her sister...right in the line of fire.

Eyes widening, Ayame had no time to change tacts, and so the technique went off, creating two barriers on either side of her sister, which slammed inwards, even as a number of others cut at her, gouging open her arm while cracking other bones. Screaming out even as her sister did, she yelled for help, running to her sister to offer what little comfort she could, she held her. Still, she would never forget the look of pain and fear in sister's eyes that day. Like her eighth birthday, it appeared her eighteenth year would haunt her for the rest of her life.

While her sister came out alright as healers were called quickly enough, that event drove a wedge into their relationship and so what closeness that had remained slowly dwindled. As the years passed and Ayame's fear drove her to refuse the teachings of the clan elders, she found that seemed to avoid her and the others more. Occasionally she would catch Kazue staring in her direction with a bitter look about her.

Even as the two grew up and Ayame earned a place on the barrier corps like many of her ancestors and peers, this loss of companionship saddened the woman. Then, on her twentieth year during the winter season, Kazue, and their father depart for a mission outside the village. Kazue does not return, and Ayame falls into a depression, thinking her sister dead. A year passes and just when Ayame is getting her life back on track she receives a mysterious letter. In a stroke of luck, it is from her sister, telling her that she's alive. Relieved, she cries, the emotion and shock overwhelming her.

Still, it is not until a year and a seven months later that she sees Kazue again. Yet, as all things do, she has changed. Unsure of where they stand after what transpired all those years ago, Ayame is hesitant around Kazue, who has changed her name to Ai. For the last five months she has been doing her utmost to rekindle the friendship and faint rivalry that they once had as young girls.

Personality: Ayame is a wounded soul. She is full of grief and a measure of pain due to both her own choices and those of her clan. As a result she is a caring and compassionate woman who believes in freedom of choice, the inherent value of life, and the weight of one's actions. Ironically, despite the teachings of her clan and her own status as a shinobi of Iwagakure, Ayame is essentially a pacifist. The woman is always looking for new ways to end disputes or conflict non-violently, and should she fail she does her best to protect those innocent and guilty from harm. In this way, at least, she certainly lives up to her family name, serving as a guardian to the weak. Undercutting all of this is a deeply ingrained fear of her own potential, a fear that should she ever be violent that she will harm those she seeks only to protect. However, buried deeper still is the hardy resilience of a survivor. Perhaps one day it will be unearthed.

Specialized Weapons & Items:

Name of Weapon or Item: Sekisao(_関棹 'Barrier Rods').

Description: A series of chakra conductive rods that she keeps all along the inside of her short cloak, the Sekisao are items that can be utilized to empower or create barriers. She can use these rods as origin points for her barriers or to empower existing ones. The rods can be considered an heirloom of her clan and have been repeatedly infused with chakra every generation, making them nigh indestructible. Additionally, using chakra, a user attuned to the Sekisao can alter their curvature or lackthereof without compromising their durability. Each rod, on the flat end, has a small hole in it, wide enough for a wire to fit and little else.

Heightened susceptibility to Lightning affinity.
Incredible Chakra Control.
Barrier ninjutsu Savant.
Average Taijutsu skill.
Average Chakra Pool.

【Hiden】

Name of Hiden: Kinzoku Youki(_金属容器 'Metal Vessel')
Clan: Kouken.
Description: Implanting chakra conductive metal into their bodies along their bones, with nodes at their joints, the Kouken clan have created a style where they can project barriers directly from their body for both offensive and defensive purposes. These metallic implants are attuned to an individual's chakra beforehand and are covered with seals that allow them to sap chakra to generate more metal and grow with the body. Due to their attunement to the user's chakra the body does not reject them or grow sick due to their presence. The metal often greatly increases the chakra control of the user due to its conductivity. Most importantly, the seals inscribed on the metal allow those with the Hiden to immediately translate chakra into barriers without handseals so long as their focus is great enough.

*The metal is non-magnetic, but is conductive.

Metal Locations

Thin stripes of flexible metal through the hands and fingers. Thicker/denser metal through the arms and legs (in Ayame's case). Nodes at or near each joint and on the fingertips except the pinkies. Node at the base of the hands near the wrists. Nodes in the shoulders. Several lines along the edges of the torso on both sides. All the metal is connected. Ayame has the metal in her feet as well, in the same way as her hands.

Type of Jutsu: Barrier ninjutsu.
Rank: C.
Range: Personal.
Nature Type: Variable.
Handseals: N/A.
Description: Channeling chakra through the metal implants in their body, a member of the Kouken clan can translate this chakra directly into barriers originating from any of the metal in their body. The more chakra utilized for a barrier, the stronger it will usually be. This technique may be used in tangent with the Sekisao.

Weakness: Seki Tōei requires a measure of physical movement to create barriers of different shapes, excluding skintight or spherical barriers. Can be disrupted by chakra absorption, some fuinjutsu, and can be broken by appropriately powerful attacks.

====================

Name of Technique: Kōken no Ishi(_{後見の意志} 'Guardian's Will').
Type of Jutsu: Barrier ninjutsu.
Rank: C.
Range: N/A.
Nature Type: Variable.
Handseals: N/A.
Description: Utilizing the Sekisao, the user may create barriers by connected them with the planes of said barriers following the curvature—or lackthereof—of the rods. The more rods and chakra utilized, the stronger the barrier is.

*Each rod amplifies the durability by 1/4th of a rank.

Weakness: Can be disrupted by chakra absorption, some fuinjutsu, and can be broken by appropriately powerful attacks.

====================

Name of Technique: Kui Enshin(_杭延伸 'Stake Extension').
Type of Jutsu: Barrier ninjutsu.
Rank: C.
Range: N/A.
Nature Type: Variable.
Handseals: N/A.
Description: Channeling chakra into a Sekisao the user will form a barrier that extends the length of the barrier rod. So long as the rod retains enough chakra to fuel the effect, the barrier will act as an extension of it, making it possible to create barriers using the "new shape," of the stake. The Sekisao can also be thrown or used to block attacks.

Weakness: Either requires continuous chakra to maintain or it will only last for a set period of time. Kui Enshin can only remain active for a minute. Can be disrupted by chakra absorption, some fuinjutsu, and can be broken by appropriately powerful attacks.

====================

Range: N/A.
Nature Type: Variable.
Handseals: N/A.
Description: Requiring at least one barrier rod, this technique has the user place one before the target of their protection, and then create two tall flat planes going backwards from the Sekisao. This technique is often used to defend against powerful head on ninjutsu such as explosions of fire or huge rushes of water or wind. The barrier has the effect of splitting the offending attack in two and diverting it around the user. The more Sekisao utilized, the stronger the barrier.

*Each rod amplifies the durability by 1/4th of a rank.

Weakness: Can be disrupted by chakra absorption, some fuinjutsu, and can be broken by appropriately powerful attacks.

====================

Type of Jutsu: Barrier ninjutsu.
Rank: A.
Range: N/A.
Nature Type: N/A.
Handseals: N/A.
Description: Requiring 3 seconds to activate, the user alters their barriers, creating a moving current of chakra that carries other chakra based attacks across and around the screen. This effect distributes the force of attacks across the entire surface of the barrier and while powerful against most large attacks, is ineffective against physical strikes or more concentrated jutsu.

Weakness: Small concentrated attacks and physical attacks. Can be disrupted by chakra absorption, and some fuinjutsu.

====================

Name of Technique: Saishu Haji(_最終把持 'Last Grasp').
Type of Jutsu: Barrier ninjutsu.
Rank: A.
Range: 15 meters.
Nature Type: Variable.
Handseals: 3.
Description: An advanced barrier technique, this creates two barriers which then slam together on a target, crushing them. Maintaining the physical form of the barriers is difficult and requires concentration. However, the two barriers move at incredible speed, hence the rank of the technique. Each barrier is 15x15 feet and is flat.

Weakness: Due to the range, the technique has a lag time of five seconds between the three handsigns and its initial formation. Ayame will not use this technique unless cornered or someone else's life/wellbeing is threatened and there is no other way for her to prevent their harm.

====================

Name of Technique: Myōbatsu(_冥罰 'Retribution').
Type of Jutsu: Barrier ninjutsu.
Rank: A-S.
Range: 15 meters.
Nature Type: Variable.
Handseals: 3.
Description: Performing the necessary handseals, the user positions their hands on one side of their body, low, forming a series of complex, elongated barriers between their hands. Once formed, the user may swipe one or both hands multiple times, releasing sharp, and curved claw-like barriers forwards at high speed. The chakra of these barriers is serrated and rotates along the edges, essentially turning them into claw shaped chainsaws. If any of these barriers land solid strikes they can pierce and then shred flesh or other material. The mastered version of this technique allows the user to form these rapidly around their body and release them with deadly precision. Conversely a master might use these like claws, extending off of their hands, arms, or feet during melee combat. Ayame has not mastered this technique.

Weakness: Barrier weaknesses. Ayame will not use this technique unless cornered or someone else's life/wellbeing is threatened and there is no other way for her to prevent their harm.

See above. Ai is always careful to cover her arms, as they are scarred.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
【Personality】
Ai used to be bitter, but has released most of that. It would be a shock to anyone who knew her before. She's still particularly sore about clans, however, and won't hesitate to condemn them. Other than that one area of particular hate, Ai is a free spirit, wanting to experience all life has to offer. Her one goal in life is to be happy, and she'll go the ends of the world to do so. Even to the point of occasional selfishness. More than once Ai's been on a detour for the scenic route. New and interesting sights always grab her attention in particular. While new jutsu she's never seen before is interesting, its more travel that grabs Ai's attention.

Ai's happiness is something she tries to make as contagious as possible. While she's going to smile and enjoy things reguardless, Ai believes its easier to be happy when everyone in the room is sharing one. Because of that, she tries her best to get those around her in a good mood. A generous gift giver, Ai has a rather creepy habit of keeping a diary of people's likes and dislikes. And updates it... constantly. Because of that, she's also surprisingly good with names. It's an ability she's been working on constantly, as she used to be horrible with it.

Ai is also highly religious, having served as a Miko for a period. Getting on her good side is easy, talk about religion, and your good. She's often prayerful, and fills out Ofunda full of wishes constantly.

Despite her quirks, Ai is a highly effective ninja. She is protective of her comrades, and assists them to fulfill whatever task they have. Her memory and unassuming nature has made her great on many infiltration missions. She does, however, have one type of mission she point blank will refuse. Despite her great skill with barriers, Ai will never volunteer to serve in a barrier corps in any capacity.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
【History】
The term, the greater the light, the greater the shadow often applies in the Shinobi world, at least it certainly did in the Kouken family. The Kouken family has been prestigious in the Hidden Stone as a barrier nin family for generations, even creating a Hiden to increase their abilities with barriers. It was a great honor to be in the clan, and the heir was given much time and honor in order to preserve its prestige. Kazue was the heir's younger sister, growing up in her sisters shadow.

Still, the two got along fabulously. They understood eachother with mere glances, and Ayame was Kazue's role model from birth, she wanted to be just like her... only she couldn't. She was always treated like just a replacement if anything was to happen to her sister. Kazue couldn't stand it. She was just a shadow. Her skills really didn't matter, nor her opinion, or anything else. Except to Ayame. Ayame always had time for her younger sister.

When Kazue was eight, she recieved the clan's 'honorable' hiden. It was the worst month in her life. Where everyone doted over Ayame in the clan when she got her implants, no one but her parents and Ayame really cared.

When it came to skills, Kazue was a natural, able to learn techniques quickly, and keep pace with her elder sister, even without the special training. She even showed an unnatural aptitude for temporal and spacial understanding. Not that it mattered. Still, her sister was her friend, until one incident. Kazue approached the training field like normal, but hadn't noticed the new barrier Ayame had created for an offensive technique. Caught between it, it crushed Kazue, in more ways than one. She was recovering for months. Honestly, she felt like this was a breaking point. She now covered her arms to hide the scars across them, and gave Ayame dirty looks everytime she passed.

What's worse was the elder's blamed her for her sister's refusal to use several clan jutsu after the training incidents, and that made things hell. Kazue was alone for years after this, wanting to break free from her sister's shadow. Her chance came in an unusual way as she was sent to a mission with her father. It was a simple one, to create a barrier around the village Jinchuuriki while the proper people calmed him down. This left alot of free time, and a lot of yelling between the two about living up to the clan's hiden. Kazue responded with a kunai to her own arm, literally ripping out one of the many rods in her arm. It proved to be a poor decision as moments later, the area they were guarding exploded, and it sent Kazue flying. In the chaos following the results of the mission, Kazue wasn't found. She was declared dead that mission.

Shortly, a shrine couple found a grievously injured girl in the country side following this, and nursed her back to health. It was fortunate that the miko had trained in medical jutsu precisely to help people. She healed the girl without hesitation, and removed the strange twisted metal in her hands and arms following the blast. It was no easy feat for the girl to recover, taking six months before she could walk and use her hands. She kept trying hard to regain their use, giving it everything she had. The girl had a new problem though. She wanted Kazue Kouken to stay dead in the blast. Without her hiden, she could really start over. She took the name Ai Kabe, and began to be a shrine maiden for several months. She did her best to repay the couple, working hard with chores around the area. She became like an adopted grandchild. And Ai was happy. No one really expected how she was suppose to live one way or another, and the elderly couple could only be happy as she opened up about her dreams for the first time, and would often help her sort her ideals out. It made Ai want to see the world, to travel. And if she'd wanted to, she could. She was free to do whatever she wanted.

There was a pang of guilt though. Despite Ai being happier than she'd ever been, her family though her dead. While she was alright with most of it, she remembered how awful her sister felt after injuring her. But if she let the clan know, they might push to declare her a missing nin, especially because they thought she still had the hiden. The debate raged within Ai for quite some time. Eventually she did write a single letter to her sister, without a return address.

"I'm fine. Keep it a secret though, I prefer a new life." ~Kazue's Ghost.

A week later, Ai's life took another turn. A rogue nin fleeing from the Hidden Stone sought refuge from the shrine... and several hostages. With the couple's lives in danger, Ai fought for the first time in a year. She quickly found out none of her jutsu would work. None only did she no longer have her hiden, the twisted metal following the blast had damaged her chakra network. Still, Ai couldn't let them come to any harm, and fought with taijutsu for nearly an hour against the rogue nin, eventually chasing him off with more tenacity than skill. She was badly injured. Though she was quickly healed, it made her realize, she could still do good as a ninja. Her skills could still protect people. She didn't have to be a ninja because she was born into it, she could be one because she wanted to be.

Training for months, Ai found away around her lack of jutsu. Storing chakra in seals slowly, she could create jutsu that way. Within a few months, she was able enough she figured to try. Her fingers were now quicker than ever, and her jutsu, while odd, worked. It was time for the more nerve racking task... to write the Tsuchikage. She sent a letter to the Tsuchikage, explaining the situation as best she could. She asked if she could return to the Hidden Stone. She also asked for a favor, if Kazue Kouken could stay dead on the books. To her surprise, he agreed, and Ai returned to the village, and was quickly assigned a team. After a few months, she was even considered a candidate for jonin...

Also during this time, she would reconnect with Ayame, though she warned her upon seeing her(through a hug), the first time.

"Kazue is dead. I just want you to know that. But... well... some bonds are thicker than blood."

Jutsu:
【Hiden 】
Former(Literally ripped out her body, so no longer applies):


Name of Hiden: Kinzoku Youki(金属容器 'Metal Vessel')
Clan: Kouken.
Rank uh....
Description:
Implanting chakra conductive metal into their bodies along their bones, with nodes at their joints, the Kouken clan have created a style where they can project barriers directly from their body for both offensive and defensive purposes. These metallic implants are attuned to an individual's chakra beforehand and are covered with seals that allow them to sap chakra to generate more metal and grow with the body. Due to their attunement to the user's chakra the body does not reject them or grow sick due to their presence. The metal often greatly increases the chakra control of the user due to its conductivity. Most importantly, the seals inscribed on the metal allow those with the Hiden to immediately translate chakra into barriers without handseals so long as their focus is great enough.

*The metal is non-magnetic, but is conductive.


【Traits 】
- Extremely fast fingers and sleight of hand, Ai can steal equipment and plant tags with unusual grace
- unable to cast most tradition jutsu, her chakra network is so messed up she can only manage to cast jutsu through seals on her tags
- Proficient in speed and body flicker technique.
- Skilled in understanding Time/Space Jutsu

Canon Jutsu

naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Four_Violet_Fla… - B - Ai's is rather weak as she's the sole caster. She uses tags as points for the jutsu. Still a moderate flaming barrier is not to be trifled with.

Custom Jutsu

Name of Technique: Fire Style: Explosive Tag Creation
Type of Jutsu: Sealing
Rank: B
Range: Contact
Nature: Fire
Effect: Ai is able to create explosive tags with a bit of concentration and ofunda ready. She needs to hold it between her fingers to transfer the chakra and build up the force for the explosion, so she can only create two at a time max.

Name of Technique: Shikigami Body Flicker
Type of Jutsu: Supplimental
Rank: C
Range: Long
Nature Type: -
Effect: For long distance travel, Ai is able to turn her body to paper and send it streaming towards a point. It's only a transportation technique, and actually leaves her vulnerable during travel. It is a far cry from Dance of the Shikigami in terms of useful, but allows her to travel unnoticed quite quickly.

Name of Technique: Ama-no-Iwato
Type of Jutsu: Sealing - Fighting Style
Rank: -
Range: Contact
Nature: -
Effect: The only way Ai is able to fight is through her collection of seals. She is able to use chakra to control them and cause them to float around her following her hands. The pathway of the tags is controlled by Ai's hands. She has a range limit of about 10 meters. She generally uses the seals in her hands anyways as the floating ones are not nearly as nimble. An opponent could dodge just by following her hands. She can only actively control one seal per hand, with the exception being able to cause several to orbit her.

Name of Technique: Ama-no-Iwato: Purify
Type of Jutsu: Sealing
Rank: B
Range: Contact
Nature: -
Effect: Placing a 'purify' seal on an opponent, when the seal activates, it blasts them backwards with their own chakra, causing the chakra used to be disappate. The more chakra an opponent has, the more damage done by the seal. It significantly lowers an opponents chakra reserve in addition to the force damage. This is Ai's signature technique.

Name of Technique: Ama-no-Iwato: Cave Entrance
Type of Jutsu: Barrier
Rank: C
Range: Close-Medium
Nature: -
Effect: The user forms a barrier around a tag from a seal inscribed, making it into a floating shield. The tag is surrounded by the barrier, yet it's only a minor barrier, it can be cracked and destroyed after moderate force.

Name of Technique: Ama-no-Iwato: Mesmerization of Yata No Kagami
Type of Jutsu: Sealing
Rank: C
Range: Close-Medium
Nature: -
Effect: A sealing jutsu to bind an opponent. Each tag placed with this seal will slow down an opponent significantly, but it takes about 4 to stop the moments of most to the point of paralysis. The seals can be ripped off fairly easily.

Name of Technique: Ama-no-Iwato: Yao-yorozu's Party
Type of Jutsu: Barrier
Rank: B
Range: Close
Nature: -
Effect: Causing a line of seals with Cave's Entrance to spin in an orbit around her, it makes a shield from every horizontal direction (not covering above or below her). Again, the shield's are only minor, meaning moderate force can break through, though with their rotation, it takes a greater force to pierce than to pierce an individual shield.

Name of Technique: Ama-no-Iwato: Amenonuhoko
Type of Jutsu: Time/Space Barrier
Rank: A
Range: Short (5 feet)
Nature: -
Effect: Ai's ultimate technique. She first creates three circles of tags at various axis's. She then rotates them by turning them with her fingers. The tags spin faster and faster until suddenly they disappear. They stay disappeared for one minute. Once they reappear, they return Ai to her starting time. Only Ai is affected. She is returned to the state and location she was, though experience is transfered. This technique consumes half of her chakra, and it can only be used once. It must be set up without disturbance, and will trigger in one minute, reguardless of circumstances. Due to all these factors, it is generally used as a scouting technique in dangerous situations.

Name of Technique: Ama-no-Iwato: Divorce of the Heavenly Couple
Type of Jutsu: Time/space ninjutsu
Rank: A
Range: Medium
Nature: -
Effect: A technique Ai accidentally discovered while working on Amenonuhoko. Surrounding an opponent with orbitting tags, Ai is able to skip time for them, causing them to reappear several minutes in the future. This deals no damage, and the reappearance time is so varied Ai cannot predict it. It will however end a fight, allowing Ai to retreat. The opponent is completely fine. As it also restores the area of the barrier, she can't set up traps in the immediate area, as they would just be cleansed as an opponent comes back.
