Reiji Saikumo

"I was born ready--no, wanting to fight~!"

Name: Reiji Saikumo
Nickname/Alias: n/a
Gender: Male
Age and date of birth: 15, May 13th
Age Appearance: 16-17
Sexuality: Heterosexual

Parents: Yuuta Saikumo (father, deceased) and Haruka Saikumo (mother, unknown)
Length and build: 5'9", Lean and agile Reiji is toned enough to admonish against the idea the he is lacking in power.
Weight: 154 lbs.
Favorite weather and season: Reiji can be found admiring the snowy days of winter.



Village: Konohagakure
Birthplace: Kirigakure
Organization: Shinobi Forces

Clan/Bloodline: Saikumo - A clan who's members have become small in number and scattered across the lands.

Rank: Genin

Chakra Nature: Lightning



Appearance: Reiji stands at a height of 5'9" with dark skin that is complimented by his platinum blonde hair. His hair is wild and thick, commonly compared to that of a lion's mane. His eyes are striking yet soft with a vibrant magenta color. His attire is what you see in the pic because I am not good at describing attire XD



Personality: Essentially Reiji is a thrill seeker. He enjoys a good challenge, a good time, and a good laugh. He's quick to tease someone when he sees an opening. He carries himself with a cool, confident demeanor and a slight temper. Since he's willing to fight at a moment's notice it takes more than taunting to get under his skin but once you do he's quite the hot head. First to confront an adversary and last to retreat, Reiji is a shinobi hungry to test his strength. He's happiest when he's able to fight other powerful ninja.

However, that same affinity for battle is what scares him the most. Nothing else is important anymore when he's fighting a strong opponent. He'll forget his objectives and potentially put his comrades in danger. Because of this he is hesitant to let others get close to him. This also makes it hard for him to work well with others. You could say he's an untamed beast whose only purpose is to prove his dominance. Still, he hopes to find something he cares for more than fighting.



History: Reiji grew up in Kirigakure and had a fairly average life for a child of shinobi. Attending the academy, he got good grades and was a fast learner. Although he only joined the academy because his parents were shinobi; just thought that was the path to take since he didn't have any ambitions of his own. Soon, he came to realize he enjoyed fighting. The skills, jutsu, the game of trying to read your opponents next move, it was all a thrill to him. From then he trained harder knowing that the stronger he got the stronger foes he'd get to face. Reiji still didn't feel he had found his reason for becoming a shinobi but combat filled the space for the time being. Until the day his parents didn't come back from a mission. His father was KIA but his mother was missing. Since there was no evidence she was dead and the body of the enemy they were fighting had been found instead she was declared a rogue ninja. Since his clan were group thinly stretched across the lands he had no other family in the village, so he was taken in by a close friend of his father's who lived in Konoha. After moving he finished his time in the academy there but found that fighting was no longer enough to replace his of a reason for becoming a shinobi. He needed answers. What happened on that mission? Where is his mother? And what what is the true value in being a ninja for him?

Weapons/Items:

Name of Weapon or Item: n/a
Description: n/a
Appearance: n/a


Skills/Abilities: With a strong handle on ninjutsu and taijutsu, Reiji is able to seamlessly mix both in battle. Combined with his smart use of his clan's kekkei genkai he becomes quite formidable. He possesses moderate skill with ninja tools making him a mid-ranged fighter. Coming from Kirigakure he's adept at stealth though he prefers a head to head fight. That doesn't mean he won't implement them when necessary.

Genjutsu isn't his strong suit. In fact he knows only a couple of techniques in the area, one he can't use very well and the other requiring a lot of hard work for him to wield. His failings in genjutsu can be connected to his lack of chakra control; his reckless use of his chakra can potentially leave him vulnerable despite his enviable reserves.



Special Traits: The Saikumo are noted for having great amounts of chakra and a natural intimidating presence.


Kekkei GenkaiHiden: Sekiun (積雲, Cumulus)

Traits/Abilities of Kekkei Genkai: Sekiun is a technique passed down through the Saikumo that allows them to manipulate the water in the air to create clouds for various uses. These clouds can be dense enough to be used as platforms or even shields, or thin enough to move through and use as cover. They can also be used as conduits for water and lightning style jutsu. Increased maneuverability, disguising attacks, softening blows; it's clear that Sekiun is a versatile technique but it has it's limits. Thought the density of the clouds can changed they are still clouds and are a poor defense against high impact attacks such as earth jutsu and cutting/piercing attacks such as swords and lightning jutsu. Obviously the less water the in the atmosphere the more difficult Sekiun is to use so dessert environments and the like render it near useless.

@Vongola_Hasayo Ya know, looking at your character, and everyone else's, my character almost feels like a super amalgam of everyone's character. There are so many similarities, makes me feel like I didn't do enough to set him apart.

[OneWayOut]

@Vongola_Hasayo looks good to me, though you should add water as a second chakra nature, seeing as he has some water based techniques. Regardless, he's accepted. Go on and place him in the character bin. Feel free to talk to myself or Izaka about how you can fit in IC

@Aegis1650

Are you kidding? Your character is a puppet user who also uses water and ice techniques XD Pretty unique to me.

[OneWayOut]

I agree with Four-kun XD

edit: anyone heard from Asuu?

[TheFourthIV]

Nope... *double tear*

[OneWayOut]

*rubs her temples* Ugh... It makes things complicated once people vanish in the middle of something important.

[OneWayOut]

Anyways, I sent Asuu a message and I'll give him another day or so to get back to me before I look for someone to replace him.

[TheFourthIV]

It's okay if you're busy but at least tell us so we know and can be prepared. :/ Maybe even set it up so that we can puppet the character if need be.

And can I just say that Reiji and Seiji both have dead (Rei has one missing) parents. Seiji's gonna be like.... >.< Dafuq does this guy think he is tryna steal my swag and style....

@Vongola_Hasayo

Do I smell a rivalry brewing? Sounds like that might be interesting. Pretty sure Seiji's gonna want to fight Daichi, Ozuko, and Reiji at some point in time.

[Izaka Sazaka]

@Vongola_Hasayo

Welcome to the squad, I can't wait to cuddle train you!



EDIT:

We'll probably introduce your character as soon as the bell test is over, which should be my next post as soon as I finish it. Just as a warning this thing is probably gonna' be like, 3 word processor pages long since I'm integrating three different characters.

You have been warned. . .
