Biography

—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

▸ History:

Sakana comes from the Uragiri clan -- a clan whose name literally means 'traitorous' -- and as such enjoys a murky, illicit reputation in all five of the Great Shinobi Villages. The Uragiri clan originated from Kirigakure -- and owes their 'fishy' appearance to that location -- but during a great exodus from Kirigakure during the Sengoku Jidai, were forced to flee from more powerful clans. Most of the Uragiri's clans shinobi's died during this time, reducing their power further. They wandered aimlessly into the territories of Kumogakure and sought asylum in the newly built village, but they were easily framed for a murder and were chased from the land of clouds.

Trekking onwards through the mountainous regions they continued to Iwagakure, hoping to finally find some respite, but they were denied access here due to the charges that were laid against them in Kumogakure -- the same happened in Sunagakure, who did not wish to harbor criminals.

They finally found refuge in Konohagakure, who accepted them, but were forced to move two years after settling down there when a Kumogakure shinobi instigated a brutal fight with an Uragiri clan member in the streets. Not wishing to have a political situation arise, the Hokage at the time threw the Uragiri clan out.

From here the Uragiri's wandered to the land of Mud, that would later become the birthplace of Amegakure -- and aided in it's founding. Despite playing a pivotal role in the establishment of Amegakure, the Uragiri remained in the background of the village -- the fact that they had few shinobi and mostly civilians put them on the background of the village. This continues into today, a few hundred years later.

While the clan only provides a few average shinobi, there are exceptions to this rule, namely Sakana and his sister Unagi, who exceed expectations placed upon them by the clan itself.

Sakana was born only two years before Unagi, and as a young child was often left alone with caretakers from the clan as their parents worked a lot and were, generally, never home. As a result, Sakana and Unagi got along quite well in so far siblings can get along. When Sakana was enrolled into the academy at age 6, it was quite clear that his sister would follow along 2 years later.

Sakana excelled in class, proving to constantly be in the top 10 percentile of the class, performing extremely well in ninjutsu and taijutsu, among others. His academic pursuits were also quite good, and he proved to have a firm understanding of the workings of chakra.

When he graduated at age 12, he joined an existing team, and replaced a genin that had gotten wounded and was no longer able to be a shinobi. While originally kept away from combat, it was inevitable that at some point Sakana would need to engage in it. This happened during a mission where his team was sent to guard the perimeter of Amegakure and respond to a reported intrusion by foreign shinobi -- during the skirmish against Konoha trespassers their sensei was caught in a genjutsu and Sakana took charge of the team despite being less experienced and younger than all other members of the team, being only 15.

Due to this, the team was able to fend off the aggressors until the Bodagado arrived to aid them. He was promptly promoted to chunin for his leadership skills, and two years later promoted to jonin to fill in a slot as a team-leader, to cover the growing need for shinobi in preparation for the inevitable war that would soon erupt.

_{Uragiri-ichizoku clan mon}

The Uragiri clan is relatively unknown, even in Amegakure. They provide mostly standard civilians in Amegakure 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 and Unagi are pretty much the two exceptions.

▸ Personal notes:

✓ To be added.

Space to remember things, like events or quirks.

✗ Negative quirk/info?

Hell yeah

▸ Dreams and hopes:

ｘ To become a well-known Shinobi on par with the legendary Sannin, or better.
ｘ To protect Amegakure.
ｘ To elevate the Uragiri clan from a no-name clan who is shunned or unknown to a clan worthy of respect.
ｘ To protect his sister at all times.

▸ Desires:

ｘ Respect, glory, fame from all shinobi in the world.
ｘ Respect, glory, fame from all Amegakure shinobi.
ｘ Missions that allow him to show his capabilities.
ｘ To develop a jutsu of his own, that only he can perform.

▸ Fears:

ｘ The destruction of his village (Amegakure) would most likely seal his fate to be an early death, so he fears this.
ｘ The death of his sister.
ｘ Being bested/outsmarted by someone he considered "lesser" than him.
ｘ The deaths of his students would undoubtedly be part of his and their own fates, though it would put a serious black mark on his track record.

▸ Motivations:

Sakana's motives are linked closely to the following 5 things: fate, fame and glory, respect, godhood. Despite his belief in fate (and the uncontrollable nature of it) he believes that he is destined for great things and is worthy of fame, respect and glory, and has worked hard to obtain it. A secret, but very present motive is that Sakana aspires to achieve 'shinobi godhood' and to surpass even those legendary shinobi like the sannin -- to be as great as Uzumaki Nagato, Uzumaki Naruto, Uchiha Sasuke, Uchiha Madara and all their peers.

▸ Custom Jutsu:

Sūpu-jutsu: Bōru
▸ Rank:

C.

▸ Range:

Up to 20 meters.

▸ Description:

This Doton technique forms the basis of a three-nature combination. The Bowl jutsu causes the target to be encased in a dome of earth around them, which then lifts up off of the earth on four earthen pillars. The jutsu is simple. There really isn't much to it - it doesn't kill, damage, or harm you, it just traps you inside the dome. That's bad, right?

▸ Weaknesses:

Well you can break free. Use S, A, B, or C-rank lightning based jutsu's to break through, or use sheer force if you're really that strong. Just do it in time before the next part of the combo.

Sūpu-jutsu: Sūpu mizu
▸ Rank:

C.

▸ Range:

Up to 20 meters.

▸ 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!

▸ Weaknesses:

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
▸ Rank:

C.

▸ 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.

▸ Weaknesses:

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.

Fūinjutsu: Atsui! atsui! atsui!
▸ Rank:

B.

▸ Range:

Close-medium.

▸ Description:

The user seals or gets sealed 3 seals on their tongue, namely the characters for 'atsui' (熱い) meaning 'hot'. These seals contain fire jutsu up to the B rank Katon: Gōka Mekkyaku (can contain smaller ones like the regular Gōkakyū no Jutsu). Due to the small size of the seals, the jutsu are not quite as large as your average great fire annihilation, but the flames burn just as hot.

The technique is easily hidden and it'd require some real good eyesight to see these seals. Similarly, because the jutsu uses a standard jutsu, it is not quite apparent that they're using sealing to be used, and it's easy to mistake these for a jutsu being used without handseals. As such, finding out that seals are used in this technique will be extremely hard for anyone that doesn't have specifically good eyesight. The seals are activated by flowing jutsu to them to 'unfurl' them, and then allows the user to spew out the technique.

The three seals are aligned from front to back saying, hot! hot! hot!

▸ Weaknesses:

Adequately dodging the technique is easier the further away from you Sakana is -- the technique is still a simple Great Fireball Technique, so there are no additional things to account for except for the very sudden ability to summon the fireball. This technique will likely catch the opponent off guard -- which is what the difficulty is. Adequate response is still possible. Water also works well.

▸ Equipment and weaponry

2x straight edge corded dagger
▸ Type:

Dagger

▸ Description:

These are just two simple straight edged daggers, with corded handles. They're black, but do not have any special qualities other than being able to flow chakra with the Hien technique. They have an average length, and they're slung over Sakana's shoulders, going with both of them coming over his right shoulder.

▸ Equipment and weaponry

Dao
▸ Type:

Sword

▸ Description:

A simple dao with no defining techniques or special variables. It’s strong and can withstand combat against other regular strong weapons, but techniques with enhanced weaponry or so will chew through it easily.

Bubbly yet not loud. She's a social person, a true extrovert who will talk to anyone about just about anything, yet she's highly guarded and on her watch about the things she says, it's fair to assume that anything you believe about Unagi si because she wants you to know it about her. In that regard, the times when things are out of her control, she becomes very unbalanced and have a hard time to adjust, something she's working on.

She's emotional and moody, something she outwardly displays quite often, given how often she changes her hair color and how several times a year, she will show up with a new tattoo usually commemorating something that's happened, a successful mission, a great loss or finding a really cute top.
Unagi's not someone who backs down from a fight, but prefers to not instigate them. In a fight she's sinister and extremely manipulative, attempting to find, expose and capitalize on any chink in the enemies armor. Exploiting every weakness is her forte and what she strives for in a fight.

Unagi's the first girl, yet the second child. Being a little sister and yet the first daughter is a lot of responsibility to balance. Growing up wasn't particularly easy, she got used to being seen as untrustworthy and mischievous even traitorous, something others of her very small clan seemed to embrace, but Unagi instead tried her best to become liked and popular, someone others saw as an idol both in appearance and ability. Her pale skin and black, almost fish-like eyes made it very hard to hide her heritage though, and she never really bothered to try and hide her eyes - even though she changes her hair color very often.

She found a passion for art at a young age and balanced her social life with her Shinobi studies and art, having very little time to develop many other hobbies or interests beyond drawing, listening to music and finding physical expression really cool - clothes and other expression became very important. She created her first tattoo, on her own thigh, when she was 12.

Her shinobi career wasn't anything spectacular, she was placed in Team Hiragami as a child, Hiragami was a grizzled ol' veteran who had seen more combat than most and he was a horrible sensei for that reason, as he wanted only soldiers. People who could follow orders and he had no patience for Unagis artistic tendancies. This lead to him drilling her on acrobatics and combat skills, further removing her from her hobbies. Hiragami made her a better shinobi, but a very pent-up person. Which is why on a mission, when she was 14, when they were caught out by Kirigakure shinobi, she didn't feel bad about following Hiragami's order to retreat, leaving the Jonin behind to be captured.

While waiting on her new team she quickly advanced to chunnin-rank a year late. She finally got placed in Team Sakana, lead by her brother who was a fresh Jonin. The two came to further their natural synergy under this period and Team Sakana could become the talk of the village as a up-and-coming Ninja Team, earning notoriety when they protected one of the Noblemen of the Mud from assassins lead by the missing-nin Hiruga Gero, a former Kumogakure Jonin.

An aspiring Tattoo artist, stylist and clothing designer. She's all about appearances and making sure that things look good, both herself, her surroundings and even her practice in combat. She's graceful and aware, much like her name indicates. Being a girl who comes from a unknown clan - and unpopular to those that know of them, Unagi had to become very socially competent, she's excellent at manipulating others and combining it with her hyper-alertness she's able to use this to great benefit in a fight. She thinks swords are really cool and wishes to become a swordsman herself, too. But her talents for swordsmanship are mostly latent and non-developed.
However, she's a Sealing-Jutsu prodigy and has developed and learnt to use many sealing techniques.
In terms of more direct combat ability, she possesses talent for ninjutsu, acrobatics and chakra control. Relying on elemental-enhancement of her close-range attacks and lending support to other shinobi's ninjutsu, specifically water and fire jutsu.

✖ ‖ J u t s u

Genjutsu:

Kitsunes Promise, B-rank
She places a opponent under deep hypnotic sedation, they are unable to move or act, simply put into a sweet docile state listening to her suggestions and feeling strong feelings of love, the kind of warmth and coziness you'd only feel when in the presence of a lover. In this state, targets are greatly susceptible to her charms and will give most information freely, depending on how quickly they discover they're under her spell. The genjutsu is triggered by fluttering her eyes which glows pink for a second. This paralyzes the target for a second and then she has to quickly make physical contact with them in order to complete the jutsu.

Lovesick Honeytrap, C-rank:
Kneading the chakra in her lungs, she creates small particles that she then blows out into a gas that takes the shape of a heart that will expand upon impact. The particles themselves will put a genjutsu on anyone hit by them that will make them feel attraction and general feelings associated with love towards Unagi. Originally, performing this technique looked much like her gale breath technique due to the effort it took, but with time and experience, she's able to expel the full heart-shape gas bomb by simply blowing a kiss. The heart is projected forward by a gust of wind to make it gain enough speed to hit the target before exploding.

Sealing Techniques:
Gozu Tennō; Koi Source S-Rank;
Gozu Tennō; Koi Source is a tattoo on her right shoulder, a seal that seals chakra she absorbs using her Chakra Sealing Technique and transports into into the Koi-Pond back at the clan compound, allowing the kois in the pond to feed on it and grow big and strong, not to mention populous. This is done by creating a pact with the Red Koi spirit, Matri which calls the pond on the Uragiri properties home. When required, Unagi is able to call on the seal, absorbing chakra from the pond and back into her body, this means draining chakra from the kois and could potentially kill them if she drains too much from them. When the Seal is used, red markings will appear on Unagi's shoulder and spreading out towards her arm, chest and back, the seals will eminate with red chakra as will all of her jutsu turn red.
Fuinjutsu Trap
Barrier Releasing Technique
Chakra Draining Seal
Finger Carving Seal

Lightning:

Lightning Spear:, A-rank
Legend has it that this technique is a bastardization of the Chidori-Technique and that legendary ninja like Sasuke Uchiha and Kakashi Hatake used techniques like this. She generates lightning chakra in her hand and then shape-transforms into into a spear reaching upwards of 10 meters, though the longer the spear the more chakra it taxes her and the shorter duration she can use the technique. The blade is capable of blocking another sword and can easily cut through a tree or even a rock, making it extremely deadly, requiring great dexterity. Like all electricity she uses, it's got a pink mixed with turquoise color.

Stormcloud Defense, B-rank
Like the lightning spear, this technique is built on the foundations of the ancient and legendary Chidor. Unagi channels lightning chakra through her entire body, allow her a instant and temporary defense against an attacker or restraints. The technique does not require any handseals, making it incredibly powerful for escaping Earth-based bondage.

Thunder Axe:, B-Rank.
Unagi coats her foot in lightning, her heel specifically and delivers a powerful axekick to the opponent striking like thunder.

Lightning Triple, C-Rank:
Throwing three shuriken or kunai at an opponent, she covers them all in lightning chakra before throwing them, once again increasing their cutting power.

Pack-A-Punch; Electro style, C-Rank:
Putting electricity into her hands, Unagi creates a taser-knuckle like technique that adds force to her jabs.

Electric Eel Net Jutsu, D-Rank:
Putting her hands into a body of water, Unagi sends out fierce lightning tendrils through the water, electrocuting it.

Wind:
Gale Push C-Rank:
Channeling Wind chakra into her hands and feet, Unagi is able to be propelled forward, or to blast an opponent or object back.

Gale Breath, C-Rank:
After a series of handsigns, Unagi puts her index finger under her lip, much like the great fireball technique, and blows a powerful blast of wind from her mouth. This technique can blow up dust for a smokescreen, fan the flames of a fire jutsu or put a fire out. It can even blow an opponent off their feet.

✖ ‖ W e a p o n s A n d T o o l s

Common ninja tools.

✖ ‖ F i g h t i n g S t y l e

Acrobatic, fluent and well thought out. Unagi does not move in unintended ways. She acts on purpose and if she seems to be making a movement-based mistake in combat it's safe to assume she's feinting on purpose.
Her fighting style is reminiscent of a kick boxers, focusing on knees, electric punches and well-targeted lightning jutsu. She doesn't hit hard, but is excellent at making sure her attacks strike their mark. Precison's more important than power to her.
Most fights are started on unfair premises by Unagi, she charms, using genjutsu or other misdirection to create an opening.

Although the use of such word is hardly believable as a proper manner of of describing Shogai, the first thing that comes to mind when thinking of this confident individual's appearance is his style. From his pair of blue eyes, to a swept back red mane, to the certain fine suit he wears, it's easy to tell that this man is either dedicated to his own aesthetic or at the very least he tries. Other than that, it's worth to note that he carries sharp eyes with a certain intensity in them.

▸ Wardrobe:

Typically, believe it or not, he wears suits. They vary in color and the tie is very likely somehow linked with whatever is happening that day. If he's caught in an unexpected situation, he's likely to exchange ties to a more fitting one for the ungoing event- it's his 'lucky omen'.

Biography

—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

▸ History:

銅 - _Dō
^Copper

It's hard to criticise those who are born talented, or from rich, powerful families- well, in Shogai's case, he wasn't rich nor powerful- much less talented, but he was born under a family of elite shinobi, a clan who's name Murakami, a clan residing in Amegakure, alone represented the individual potential of each of their peers. Naturally, Shogai was then destined to become an elite shinobi, it might not have been his goal of aspiration at some point... but he would never remember it after enduring one of the most severe training regimes known to shinobi, being beaten, broken, mended and healed only so he could continue his training. When he began his formal studies and he was asked by a teacher about his dream, his answer was given without second thought.

"I'm going to become a shinobi. One of the best."

Shogai, seven years old, responding what his dream was in his first class ever.

While he had an easy time through his studies because of his family enforcing him to religiously study, Shogai still wasn't satisfied. No matter how he trained, practiced, studied, attempted- there was one individual that seemed to excel far more than him in his fields of interest: Those regarding shinobi. Sakana was also of a notable clan, it reflected as much in his appearance... but, he was individually blessed. He was above the meek, an individual of unbelievable potential and ultimately unreachable by Shogai.

That didn't decrease his spirit, let alone demotivate him on his... or rather, his clan's goal. He would still become a great shinobi because his clan dictated it. They would train him into one, sooner or later. If he could endure it... good. If not... well, it was never meant to be.

銀 - _Gin
^Silver

Becoming a genin was the very first step and, apparently, the most tedious one. With his own thoughts more clearly formed and his own mentality and personality beginning to form, Shogai was starting to have questions. Doubts. Why was he meant to be a great shinobi again? He clearly wasn't predestined to be one by fate as he could clearly see what someone who is with a glance. Even if he disregarded that, Shogai could literally breeze through mostly everything with exceptional grades despite his lack of inherited talent, simply because his family kept making him follow such strict training schedules.

As time passed, missions became more frequent and so did Shogai's family expectations. They became more demanding, reminding him that he was ready to pursue further goals on his own, such as becoming a chuunin. A little far fetched for an eleven years old genin, but Shogai took that to heart and began developing his own jutsu... As well as his own quirk. In a very harsh training session where he coincidentally wore a yellow tie with many blue lightnings designs over it, he discovered his second chakra nature: Raiton. He attributed it to the tie, of course, and from then onwards began a ritual to always wear the best tie for the occasion. He also began a collection of ties, since his clan provided everything to him, his earned money was spent mostly at ties.

Once he became thirteen, Shogai had became indeed quite a notable individual. With two chakra natures, notable abilities in fields such as taijutsu, bukijutsu, ninjutsu and genjutsu, being an overall complete shinobi, Shogai embarked on his first chuunin test, representing Amegakure, naturally.

While the trip was uneventful and tedious, as soon as the exam began, many of Shogai's conceptions were broken down. First, amongst his team, he was entirely in another level. The other two genin were shinobi no less than he was, but their abilities were always unparalleled and such made Shogai rather arrogant. In the exam, he could on common ground: With shinobi, who like him, trained their whole life with the goal of becoming a shinobi.

It was how he was beaten and earned an interesting scar in his left eye and a valuable lesson from a total stranger who, after defeating Shogai, extended his hand to help him get back on his feet with a valuable lesson:

" I can see you trust your abilities, but don't forget to trust on your opponent's as well... Don't make that surprised face. We're not enemies, only opponents- and the fight is declared over. Humble down, take my hand and get back on your feet.

Makoko, a boy from the village hidden in the sand, who fought against Shogai during the chuunin exam.

Despite the results, Shogai still earned the rank of chuunin. The fight between them was declared a spectacle- they were two individuals with impressive resistance and will, who spent their entire early life honing their shinobi abilities- it was the first time ever Shogai actually fought someone and was allowed to go all out. Even so, he lost... and not only that, he was entirely certain that he would win no matter what, his confidence so high that he mistreated his opponent from the beginning, who wished him good luck and a good fight at the beginning.

Since Shogai's social interactions outside missions where he forcefully had to accompany his team were so few, he didn't exactly develop an outgoing personality. His inherent unfriendliness was simply a manner to steer away from interactions because he didn't knew how to deal with them. The chunin exam didn't simply promove his shinobi rank- it taught him valuable life lessons in diverse manners, with the fight against Makoko being the epicenter of it. After the event, Shogai did indeed learn how to humble down- he isn't exactly respectful, but he's well educated and that somehow seems to make up for it.

For the five next years after earning the rank of chunin, Shogai didn't particularly do anything extraordinary. He did missions- some were interesting, others dangerous and tough. He had one or two of these situations, got his first and second blood- and thanks to the difficulty in dealing with taking two lives in the same mission, developed a smoking habit which dwindled down over time, now, he simply appreciates a cigar in certain occasions. He had a girlfriend and a few flings there but apparently he doesn't do well in long relationships and that summarizes it, really.

He still trained and practiced. Even when he turned 18 and his clan pretty much stopped demanding it. He shrugged off most of the doubts and questions he had as a teenager, focusing his determination onto 'going as far as he possibly can'. If nothing, Shogai is at least hopeful that in the future, he will live through his golden-era.

▸ Personality:

✓ Confident.

Spent entire life hearing he's going to be an elite shinobi. He trusts himself.

✗ Blunt.

Shogai doesn't understand the concept of lie- it was never something that he needed to. He's sincere to the point of disrespect, should the truth hurt.

✓ Honest.

His honesty is unquestionable, in every sense. If you hurt his feelings, he will voice it loud and clear.

✗ Gullible.

It's common for humans to judge based on themselves. In Shogai's case, his own honesty and sincetiy makes him believe others will act the same, when we all know this is not how the world is.

✓ Diligent.

Dude followed training and studying schedules his entire life. Please.

▸ Dreams and hopes:

ｘ Ascending the ranks of shinobi
ｘ Eventually, becoming a kage. Doesn't matter which nation- it's simply the position atop every other
ｘ Finding his own purpose within the world, being part of something bigger

▸ Desires:

ｘ Befriend someone he can relate with
ｘ Learn powerful new techniques, or develop them himself
ｘ Fighting a shinobi with legendary dojutsu from konohagakure
ｘ D4

▸ Fears:

ｘ F1
ｘ F2
ｘ F3
ｘ F4

▸ Motivations:

His clan. His biggest motivation is to prove true what has always been said to him, that his destination is to become a great shinobi. He doesn't know what truly that means entirely as there are many manners of great shinobi, but he knows he's not even close yet.

▸ Custom Jutsu:

Water Release: Primordial
▸ Rank:

A.

▸ Range:

Self applied.

▸ Description:

Coats the chakra in a layer of suiton chakra. It is thin, but concentrated and one would only notice a slight blue hue hovering over Shogai's skin. This hidden technique is extremely flexible, as while active, it will provide him with a signicant resistance to fire jutsu and may offer minor to medium protection against taijutsu and other fields of combat.

▸ Weaknesses:

He's not immune at all, but resistant. Punishing him hard will still hurt. Raiton is obviously a weakness. He can only keep it active for a minute at most and it will be risky for him, because this jutsu takes an extremely high level of chakra control and concentration to keep it active.

▸ Custom Jutsu:

Water Release: Tidal Wave
▸ Rank:

B.

▸ Range:

Short/medium. Applied through contact with the water.

▸ Description:

A genjutsu where the user produces a serie of handseals and then expels water from their mouth a short range away. Although the quantity and pressure of the water is harmless- compared to being thrown water from a bucket or similar at most, this jutsu entraps those hit by it in a genjutsu where they feel as if they are being constantly crashed by tidal waves, losing control of their movements temporarily, until breaking free from the technique.

▸ Weaknesses:

The danger in this technique is the way it is applied, but it is also exactly how most shinobi will find out it is a genjutsu. Breaking free is a matter of powering through it and releasing yourself, I guess.

▸ Custom Jutsu:

Water Release: Bone-Fissure

▸ Rank:

B.

▸ Range:

Self-melee.

▸ Description:

A simpler version of Primordial jutsu, where Shogai coats his hands in the same concentrated suiton chakra he uses. After striking an opponent with a taijutsu attack, he injects a concentrated jet of his own chakra into the enemy, which bursts into a powerful blow. Direct, unprotected hits may cause severe damage.

▸ Weaknesses:

A melee attack is not very easy to land on most foes. Requires certain concentration to keep up, but he's able to keep it for much longer than primordial.

▸ Custom Jutsu:

Lightning Release: Reflex
▸ Rank:

C.

▸ Range:

Self applied.

▸ Description:

Creates a round shaped grid with raiton chakra, with many thin lines spreading in a moderate area around him. The grid all connect to his skin, showing an impressive display of chakra control - while the lightning grid doesn't hurt and simply causes a tingling sensation at most, because of how low chakra is applied to it, it will inform Shogai immediately of anything that moves inside it, much like a neural synapse, it is instant- meaning that he will respond without delay while inside it.

▸ Weaknesses:

Impossible to use with his hidden techniques. Can't maintain for very long, either.

▸ Custom Jutsu:

Lightning Release: Fingerstep
▸ Rank:

C.

▸ Range:

Melee.

▸ Description:

Touches a surface or opponent with the tip of his fingers, invoking a powerful burst of raiton chakra that will propulse things away- Shogai can creatively use this to propel himself from the ground with a powerful speed burst, change his direction midair (at the risk of hurting himself, probably) and more. Basically, he needs to be touching something with all five fingers and then cast this jutsu to either launch himself or launch someone.

▸ Weaknesses:

Limited offensive/defensive capabilities. Mostly a movement jutsu.

▸ Equipment and weaponry

Basic shinobi equipment.

▸ Type:

Standard.

▸ Description:

A number of kunai, shuriken, wirestrings, explosive tags and scrolls.

ｘ Ayakashi Clan.

▸ Chakra natures:

Primary nature:

Raiton.

Secondary nature:

Suiton.

▸ Appearance:

If its not plainly obvious, Gareki's left arm is nearly dessicated. For a reason he refuses to elaborate on his arm is constantly being dried of its moisture. After years of adapting to this painful process, he no longer feels much of any pain in his left arm. Likewise, an apparatus is seemingly connected to his wrist, something else one would never hear him speak on. Other than that, young Gareki is an unpolished boy inwardly and somewhat of a braggart outwardly. He stands from head to toe at 5'7" for those interested in the particulars.

▸ Wardrobe:

Typically one could find, Gareki wearing the clothes above when not being assaulted by Amegakure's rain. When out and about under Her tears, he's usually carrying a burgundy umbrella. Fun fact, the red overcoat he wears was given as present by a friend. He wears it with pride, along with a few trinkets as well. He appears flashy and idiotic, wearing the clothes he does in the rain, but behind every choice of clothing (anything he does really) is some form of sentimentality.

Biography

—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

▸ History:

Gareki Minashigo or Minashigo Gareki, whichever you prefer, did not always carry that name. For many years he was nameless. He was the scary-new-boy, the ass(ash)-haired punk that started fights far too easily and spoke little-too-none. His early years at Minashigo-In Koyo Sabisu was harsh and fatally depressing. Out of every ten, there was perhaps one, that came without an edge or emotional baggage. It was just unfortunate that Gareki wasn't one of those fairy jewels. No, he was coarse and unpolished. He knew very little coming into the orphanage and it showed. The kids often picked at his lack of "common sense" as they would call it. Just as he would pick apart how they would cry about dead parents, siblings, or just being orphans in general. He could do that cause he wasn't sure if he had lost anything in particular. His mind was foggy and for all he had known, Amegakure and the orphanage was his home.

Time and isolation changes people, Gareki learned that at a young age, let's say six or seven, the specifics aren't clear. However, what is pristine in his mind is that he had made friends. He had found his niche, his alcove away from the gentle loneliness. Because remember, he was never truly abandoned. His group of friends were called the Umbrella Accord. They turned his abrasive nature into a protective force. At times new arrivals would cause chaos, older children would feel entitled and angry at the world. He even acquired his first name from one of them. Gareki often acted as a deterrent for his friends. Eventually, over time, they became something he liked. Something he appreciated.

Still, it was no surprise when it all changed. You see, the orphanage was also a facility that pushed the youngsters towards the shinobi life. Since his arrival all those years ago, Gareki Minashigo had showed an affinity towards violence. He was no prodigy, no born winner, but he didn't have anything holding him back either. He was a clean slate, given only a little to do. So becoming a decent Hidden Rain Ninja was on his bucket list. In the mist of doing so, a weird, horrifically painful, abnormality surfaced. Something that was only hinted at during his stay at the orphanage. Y'see, every other year or so, his left arm would balloon with moisture. And with every year it became worst and worst.

That was until a visiting ANBU figured it as a chakra problem--no wonder medicine wasn't working. After a few months under the watchful eye of the lone ANBU, he was presented with an apparatus that once latched on had desiccated his arm. She explained her theory, that he must be of the highly reclusive, Ayakashi Clan. Hearing the first hints of his past inspired little to nothing in him. That being said, being saved from a life-time of pain had sparked a drive to be like his savior. Ever since he's been training to become an ANBU, hoping to garner their attention through his exploits as a Genin. When he graduated from The Academy, his friends had begun to call him Diamond; short for Diamond-in-the-Rough.

_{The Ayakashi Clan}

Though it matters very little to Gareki, other more influential ninja may want to know the whispers of his heritage. The ripples they made in Amegakure and their current status. Let it be known that the Ayakashi Clan is a veiled yet very skilled clan. They first appeared in Amegakure a mere century ago, only not many had taken notice of them. How is that doable? one might ask, well you see the Ayakashi is quite literally a family of eleven ninja, who often disguise themselves as civilians. They are not huge or grandstanding, if anything they are more reclusive than their occupation would already presume. To be more precise one would do better to call them assassins.

They have a large assortment of clients, some of which will only do business with certain members of the family. This line of work ended up being something of a spotlight in Amegakure. A village which fiercely guards their boarders and incoming traffic had caught on quick. Much quicker than they were use too. They wanted a share of the riches the clan was bringing in. If nothing else the Ayakashi Clan was steadfast to their traditions, in short they were greedy. Because they refused to bow to village regulations they were forced to flee. Only, to flee from the Arekuruu was no easy feat. Two of their members were killed and another was captured. The captured woman was brainwashed into becoming a loyal member of Arekuruu.

▸ Personality:

✓ Visceral.

Growing up in the orphanage where everyone is a target led him to trusting his gut feelings. Whether that be to lash out or stay silent, he trusts himself considerably.

✗ Simple-Minded.

Relying on "feelings" can only take someone so far. Due to his instinctive nature, Gareki isn't the smartest tool in the ninja pouch. This stacked on with his effective evasiveness of homework has dumbed him down a tad.

✓ Driven.

The Umbrella Accord taught him something subtle about himself. He never realized how determined he was until his duty or goal was always prevalent. He never left a job he wanted to do undone and always went beyond for his ambitions.

✗ Stubborn.

On the other hand, Gareki is infamous for being unruly and argumentative, especially on sensitive topics. Its unsavory but more-times-than-not it takes a firm hand and vivid realization for him concede.

✓ Partial Empathy.

With so many troubled youths passing through the orphanage, all flaring with emotions, one gathers a bit of empathy. An understanding of what one could be going through with just a bit of insight. Now you might be wondering why partial is there, well Gareki is only empathetic towards those he "likes".

✗ Apathy and Aggression

On the other-hand this partial empathy seemingly gives credence to the idea that anything beyond the scope of what he likes isn't worth exploring. This goes doubly so for people. He's always met those chaotic kids from the orphanage with a pinch of malice sprinkled in with his indifference. Mostly because a person's pride is hard to break with words alone.

✓ Genuine.

Being born with a clean slate, without any baggage, gave him the opportunity to find himself much sooner than most people. He decided early on that with the few words he knew, he'd be honest with himself and others. Though I suppose it'd take someone as weird as Gareki to make that work.

✗ Raw.

Typically, he doesn't put on airs for others, plain and simple. His friends has voiced concerns about his uncouth behavior before, fearing that he'd end up dead or in prison for disrespecting someone of high-importance.

▸ Dreams and hopes:

ｘ To outshine the ANBU woman.
ｘ To become an ANBU.
ｘ To attract the attention of the ANBU.
ｘ To gain renown for his exploits. (short-term).

▸ Desires:

ｘ To provide stability for the Umbrella Accord.
ｘ Acknowledgement from the ANBU woman that eased his pain (she's a cold woman).
ｘ Acknowledgement from the ANBU.
ｘ Missions to gain renown.

▸ Fears:

ｘ The death of an Umbrella Accord member or disbandment of the group.
ｘ The death of the ANBU woman.
ｘ To never be accepted as an ANBU.
ｘ To become stagnant-he needs progress to become renown.

▸ Motivations:

If one was to ask Gareki that question he'd tell you "I don't know". So its a good thing there are records of this youth from the orphanage. Though he lacks a concrete understanding of himself, its very easy to see he loves exceedingly hard and falls even harder. The boy differentiates good and bad, not by the actions one may take but purely on the actions one takes against him. The Arekuruu woman freed him from a pain that tormented him for years, and in doing so unintentionally made herself an idol. His motivations are purely to garner the admiration of the one adult he admires.

▸ Kekkei genkai:

The Starved Arm, God Arm (Kami no ude).

▸ Description:

The God Arm, renamed Starved Arm by Gareki, absorbs Suiton and Raiton chakra/natural natures. Said chakra then initiates a transformation from the Starved Arm. Suiton chakra turns the arm into a liquid form capable of utilizing a plethora of jutsus. Likewise with Raiton, this chakra turns his arm into lightning granting him a variety of jutsus to use. Overcharging, removing the limiter, and training this KG will grant the user Chakra Cloaks (too far off to even think about). Its recently been discovered that The Starved Arm is also capable of absorbing Katon chakra, though that causes extreme discomfort as it stands.

▸ Strengths:

Deploying powerful Raiton and Suiton jutsus without formal or practical training. The Starved Arm is also capable of nullifying jutsus to an extent. Also the Starved Arm is less like flesh and more like wood, making it good for blocking against certain non-chakra weapons. All injuries sustained to the Starved Arm is healed upon in-taking chakra.

▸ Weaknesses:

The Starved Arm is situational. Without a outside source of water, fire, or lightning his left arm remains mostly useless. It lacks near all the strength his right has, making his punches feel like puppy slaps without the power-up. If one wished to overwhelm him though, numbers could do it, with enough Raiton, Katon, or Suiton jutsus thrown at his arm he'd eventually began to take damage. Doton and Fuuton deals normal damage.

▸ D-rank Techniques

▸ E-rank Techniques

▸ Custom Jutsu:

Suiton: Starved Raindrops
▸ Rank:

C.

▸ Range:

Long.

▸ Description:

Gareki swings his hand towards his opponent(s) propelling finger-tip size bullets of water. They have enough force to bang up wood pretty bad and upon contact with the body can do some heavy bruising.

▸ Weaknesses:

Starved Raindrops are kinda slow about the same speed as your average kunai-throw. Using a powerful Doton technique eliminates the force behind the Jutsu. If you have steel weapons one could simply counteract them that way as well.

Suiton: Starved Clutch
▸ Rank:

B.

▸ Range:

Close

▸ Description:

This Jutsu is two-fold. The first action is very simple and can happen before one realizes it. All Gareki must do is grab hold of his opponent with his Starved Arm. Upon grabbing him/her the volume of the water in his arm expands suddenly, consuming his opponent in a sphere. From there, the density inside said water begins to squeeze on them from all sides, putting pressure on the lungs.

▸ Weaknesses:

Outside help is perhaps ones' best bet. Though there is a moment when the arm expands that one could perform a quick escape. A powerful B, A, or S Rank Katon technique could evaporate the water, likewise a B, A, or S Fuuton technique could separate the sphere from the source.

Suiton: Full Punch!
▸ Rank:

B.

▸ Range:

Medium.

▸ Description:

Gareki throws a full powered punch at his opponent(s). The moment before impact his arm expands to the size of horse and plows into them with force of a sprinting stallion. This Jutsu if taken head on can cause broken bones and deep, painful bruises, possibly internal damage as well.

▸ Weaknesses:

Its very telegraphed as the swing has to be a full swing. However, a C, B, A, or S rank Doton technique could block it. Anything less would break under it. An B, A, or S rank Katon could evaporate it.

▸ Custom Jutsu:

Suiton: Starved Jacket
▸ Rank:

S.

▸ Range:

Close to Long

▸ Description:

Typically this form is achieved by removing the bracelet placed upon his left arm while kneading Suiton chakra. Doing so allows Gareki to utilize The Starved Arm to its fullest. Call it a mental cue or whatever, but the suiton chakra flows up and around the arm, flourishes over his red jacket and turns it into miniature ocean in appearance, adorning his chest and back with a dense shield of watery armor. This jutsu enhances his physicality with the attributes of water. Speeding himself up with jets of pressurized water, increasing his strength several folds within the same concepts. Upon its explosive release a microburst (a sudden and violent downpour of rain) occurs fifty meters around him. This downpour is dedicated to sensory input. The rain can reveal one's location, who they are through chakra recognition, and in a practical sense, obscures one's vision and senses.

▸ Weaknesses:

This jutsus' main weakness is time. A in-game time of five of Gareki posts. Though a chakra absorbing jutsu or chakra sealing practitioner could put a end to it as well. Typical of a jutsu of its nature, this bears a burden and weakens Gareki after its use. Also only Suiton jutsus can be used by Gareki once donning the Starved Jacket.

Raiton: Die
▸ Rank:

A.

▸ Range:

Medium to Close.

▸ Description:

The only technique that Raiton Starved Arm has. Gareki points his index towards his opponent and shoots a bolt of lightning towards them. The bolt of lightning, much like its namesake, travels fairly quick towards it target. This bolt is powerful enough to pierce muscles and A Rank Doton defenses.

▸ Weaknesses:

There are very few ways to escape this Jutsu, luck being one of them. However, should one spot the telegraphed index finger, a C, B, A, or S rank Fuuton technique could nullify it. A partner could be of use to dodge this or one could simply out run it. Also, the famous Kawarimi technique could post a suitable defense as well.

Raiton: Be Cut Down
▸ Rank:

A.

▸ Range:

Close.

▸ Description:

A technique he learned to keep his sword from breaking again. He channels his Raiton chakra through it, creating a nigh unbreakable blade that cut through most objects and people. The swing of his enhanced blade can cleave through A-Rank Doton techniques like butter.

▸ Weaknesses:

C, B, A, or S rank Fuuton technique could nullify it upon contact. A likewise lightning style could nullify it as well, though its strength would need match or exceed the A-Rank. Also, the famous Kawarimi technique could post a suitable defense as well.

▸ Equipment and weaponry

Kenma
▸ Type:

Greatsword.

▸ Description:

An amazingly sturdy slab of metal capable of withstanding all manners of jutsus. If nothing else, it demonstrates Gareki's impressive physicality. Weapons imbued with chakra could makes it way through the sword.

Tenjin Suzuko

Tenjin Suzuko

Name:

Tenjin Suzuko

Clan:

N/A

Rank:

Chuunin

Sex:

♀

Age:

17 years old.

Village:

Amegakure

Affiliations:

Amegakure

Chakra natures:

Primary nature:

Fuuton.

Appearance:

Of fairly average height and firm, petite build, Suzuko’s looks are similarly average. In most settings, she wouldn’t particularly stand out on looks alone, so (as if to counter balance that), she keeps to bright reds and yellows in casual environments. Outside, particularly in the rain or on a mission, she has a dark hooded poncho to shroud herself without constricting her any.

History:

One might think the sharp, arid, whipping winds of Sunagakure, and the seemingly endless downpour and humid rancor of Amegakure would feel different. For Tenjin Suzuko, however, they both brought about similar feelings. She had no nostalgia for the sand of her birthplace. Her family migrated from Konoha with some difficulty, Tenjin Teresuke’s expertise with weapons allowing him a place there, on paper. In practice, Sunagakure’s attitudes left them struggling. They had the same money as everyone else, but too often it was ‘no good’. Suzuko grew up an ‘other’, believed to be a compulsive liar, crook, cheat, and degenerate by her peers even before she’d opened her mouth, even though she’d been born there just like them. The brief connections she’d had were by the children who hadn’t known better, quickly pulling away once they found out where her parents were from, or from the occasional adult she’d find in the quieter parts of town, managing a lonely storefront or getting drunk in the day, often being some combination of being too bored, poor, or foreign to shove her away instantly. Perhaps it was Suzu looking for what she wasn’t getting at home: her dad was always away, being too bored, poor, and foreign all at once as he failed to get many contracts, struggling to make ends meet for as long as Suzu could remember.

It didn’t last forever. It couldn’t. Dissatisfied, they left, Teresuke prepared to shamefully return to the home he’s left behind a decade ago, shortly before Suzuko was born. As they left, the sands against her skin only made her think of her loneliness, her heart pounding with anticipation at the idea of what might lay ahead. But a week or so into their travel, Suzu came down with a bad cold. Her parents, worrying for her safety, turned back to the last town they were at, reasoning that it’d be closer, when the vehicle they’d taken themselves and their belongings in lost a wheel. Repairs had taken time, and before they could reach town, a storm they’d been trying to avoid blew in. While crossing a bridge, Teresuke fell into the river trying to remove blockage on the path, and his wife had jumped in to try and save him. Suzuko would see neither of them again. She wouldn’t have even known what had happened, feverish in delusion. Looking back, she always just kind of assumed the wind took them away, as ludicrous as that sounded. At the time she didn’t have anythign to go off but the voices and wind whipping against the vehicle she’d rested in with their possessions as she tried to remain protected. She awoke some days later in a clinic, having been rescued from the abandoned vehicle left in the middle of a common travel route. No one knew what happened, least of all her. Stripped of her home and everyone she’d known in any meaningful capacity, she had nothing. Authorities had been unable to find any relatives to look after her, so Suzuko took matters into her own hands, trying to return to Sunagakure. Going along the road, trying to retrace their steps on her own two feet, she’d gotten lost again rather quickly. The first to find her wasn’t the authorities of the small town she’d ran from, but the Bodagado. En route from Wind to Fire, the small village had been rather close to Amegakure territory, Suzuko stumbling into it unawares. As Suzuko was both lost and a child, however, one with no home or relatives, however, the ensuing confrontation led to four imposing shinobi scaring a small child to tears without even trying. Shinobi as they were, they weren’t monsters, waiting for her to calm down before figuring out the best course of action. They didn’t get much conclusive, just that she had no home or family. As Amegakure itself was born of the remains of other nations, it only felt appropriate for the shinobi to bring Suzu to one of the many orphanages. At her age, there was a way she could contribute and find her place, after all. In a tenuous time where the world was in a strained state of peace, there could never be enough soldiers.

Suzu didn’t have much of a choice: it was either become a shinobi or be forced to fend for herself, and Suzu didn’t want to be alone. She began training, possessing no exceptional ability. But that was fine: though awkward, she wasn’t hated or excluded. Amegakure possessed all types. Even if she wasn’t the most talkative, she liked being around others. Upon being assigned her first team, it got even better. Long periods of time spent together meant closer bonds. And closer bonds meant more pain when they were ripped away. A rudimentary scouting mission to the Land of Earth had led to their sensei being hit by a sneak attack and plummeting off a cliff to his death. Alone and without leadership, the genin were outmatched. They broke into a retreat, Suzu not once looking back. Returning to Ame, she was alone, and none of her comrades joined her. She had been the only one to survive the mission’s failure, and though she took it hard, she couldn’t let her despair crush her if she wanted to eat. Two years after her graduation to Genin, she had to redouble her efforts so that she, one who’d abandoned her comrades, would be accepted by other teams. Living in near poverty, it wasn’t until she became a Chuunin about a year later that she was able to consistently find work. This time, she knew the struggle of shinobi work, and the danger it posed. She or her allies could be dead at any time, so in what she believed to be a wise move, she kept herself at bay. Celebratory meals for a job well done always occurred when she ‘had something else to do’, and meetings outside of work she kept brief. But that too ended in failure. Despite keeping her distance, seeing a comrade in front of her, begging for her help while their legs had been severed by a blade left those cries gnawing at her heart. The muffled scream of another team mate as they were drowned in their mind by a Genjutsu, leaving them to suffocate failed to leave her dreams. The last one had been on her: she, the most experienced one on the squad after the other two died, took charge, not intending to let the mission end in failure again, pressing on. She’d tried to lead the counterattack, to put herself in front of her junior, but in the thick of combat she was only able to cover herself. They had successfully killed the targets: deserters. Ame shinobi whom she could not help but to see an alternate version of herself in, a failed self much like her father who fled because he was unable to find a place in the world. But standing in the rain over the bodies of enemy and comrade alike, she was cold, and once again, alone.

This was Suzuko’s most recent mission. After a period of brief recovery, she requested to be put back on the force as soon as possible. Some had called her cursed. Maybe she was cursed, maybe she’d go through her life the constant ‘only survivor’. Maybe that was fine. If she had one desire, it was to survive.

Personality:

✓ Active.

Suzu likes to keep busy, any moment spent passively feeling wasted to her.

✗ Tunnel Vision.

Suzu tends to keep focused on what’s directly in front of and around her. The past only got her to where she is today, getting to tomorrow is all the present is there for.

✓ Adaptable.

Tending to live in the moment, Suzu can be quick to change up plans or tactics depending on the situation.

✗ Non-Committal.

Having experienced plenty of loss and failure, Suzu tends not to get attached to people, places, or things. As such she’ll give up on keeping something maintained if it becomes difficult, and tends to bounce back from having something taken from her fairly quickly.

✓ Cautious.

Similarly, Suzu is careful of where she puts her efforts. If something seems dangerous she might hold back an attack or keep her distance.

✗ Impatient.

Suzu likes to keep moving and doesn’t care to wait on others. If in a particularly sour mood she’ll try to do things as quickly as possible. This can even be at odds with her general caution: for example, in a battle where her caution ends up drawing out a battle she wants over, she might get frustrated, putting her even more at risk.

Desires:

ｘ Steady work.
ｘ To never go hungry.
ｘ Family, one day, provided she lives long enough to settle down comfortably, but that’s such a far off thought that it only comes to surface every so often.

Fears:

ｘ Losing those around her, or her home.
ｘ Being alone.
ｘ Being wounded, or otherwise unable to fend for herself.

Custom Jutsu:

Fuuton: Shifting Blade
Rank: A.
Range: Close.
Description: Suzuko’s strongest Jutsu, and one that took the most time to before acclimated to. After preforming hand seals, Suzu creates an edge of wind chakra along her hand, wrist, and arm. From an outside appearance, the blade is invisible to those without acute chakra sense, due to Suzuko’s above average chakra control allowing her to leave a slight bit of chakra there upon utilization of the technique, only pouring in enough to make it visible at the moment she needs to strike. It requires a lot of focus, meaning she can’t use other techniques in tandem easily, things like keeping her footing on water or the side of a wall, or maintaining clones make it more difficult to properly manipulate her blade. Upon funneling chakra in, she can change the blade’s shape and size at the moment of attack. She’s only capable of moving it around three meters in front of her, sacrificing some of the range possible with Fuuton techniques, but through being near invisible until the moment of striking and rather quick, along with not needing to follow her movements outright, she can make up for it in deceptiveness. For example, by throwing a punch that only misses, she can put the opponent on lowered guard, feeding the blade with chakra and causing it to whip around and extend through their exposed back.

Fuuton: Gust Clone
Rank: B.
Range: Clones are created at close range and operate independently.
Description:A wind element shadow clone, in effect. They operate like typical clones, but upon being destroyed or dispelled, they unless a gust of wind in all directions, throwing anything in range off balance or even blasting victims off their feet. Suzu can create two at a time.
Weaknesses:Wind gusts don’t discriminate, affecting ally and enemy alike.

Fuuton: Great Burst
Rank: C.
Range: Close.
Description: By clapping her hands together, Suzuko releases a great gust of wind outwards in all directions. At her personal limit, she can blast away the average person with relative ease if they’re close and deflect certain attacks like kunai effortlessly, but at three meters out the power drops off considerably.
Weaknesses:Particularly durable and heavy targets, or those who can block the wind or hold themselves down (with a Doton, for instance) can resist the wind, and generally speaking it can catch allies in the gust as well.

Gale Winds
Rank: D.
Range: Supplementary.
Description: A mobility Taijutsu, Suzuko is able to kick off into a run with excellent acceleration, providing hard to match speed for that quick burst. Often a setup for other ‘Gale’ titled techniques.
Weaknesses: Though it offers a quick burst of power, there’s a steep drop off unless the user can naturally maintain it, akin to finding speed by running down a hill only to find oneself slowed as they reach level ground. By nature, stopping early can be incredibly dangerous or difficult.

Gale Charge
Rank: C.
Range: Medium to Close.
Description: A natural extension of Gale Winds, Suzu simply converts the momentum into a tackle. With a kunai knife she can make the technique even more dangerous.
Weaknesses: As the technique puts the user into the fray very quickly, though it can catch opponents off guard, it can put Suzuko in a troublesome spot easily.

Gale Flurry
Rank: B.
Range: Medium to Close.
Description: Similar to Gale Charge, but rather than a full body tackle or stab, Suzuko engages in a combination attack of strikes and blows. Under the ideal execution, the opponent is struck multiple times in succession, each strike blasting them away and potentially keeping the target stunned, the potential damage greater than that of a single charge through finer control.
Weaknesses: Emphasis on ‘ideal’. To pull of properly requires a fair amount of awareness and control, so as to ensure the force knocks back the opponent far enough so that the continued momentum of Suzuko is able to catch them as they slow again for another strike. Too close and Suzuko can’t strike in time, often leading to a clumsy tackle rather than a full blow, if that. Too far however, and the opponent might be able to recover before Suzuko can strike them again, or counterattack.
