Hah, I was watching Mulan the other day. I love that gif.

On another note, I like the characters so far.

ONE PUUUUUUUUUUUUNCH

Kurosuke

Name: Izuma Kurosuke
Hero Name: The Gunslinger.
Age: 19
Gender: Male

Appearance: Izuma is a young man of Japanese descent, standing at the relatively tall height of 6 feet exactly. His build is rather lean and fit, with broad shoulders and nimble, calloused hands whose fingers are usually wrapped up individually in light bandages, as if to hide away scars. His eyes are an intense but cool dark gray, which can seem to turn into a lighter silver whenever his adrenaline spikes up. Izuma is a University student, and generally wears his uniform casually untucked and tie loosened, with a warm, collared gray jacket over that. His hands are usually in his coat's pockets, as well, for more reasons than his hands being cold.

Personality: Hm...well, there are quite a few ways to describe Izuma. Cool-headed, a bit emotionally cold and distant, yet undeniably selfless. A relatively unmotivated young man, but also intelligent and open-minded. Tends to be blunt and straightforward. He can come off as rude with his honesty, but over-all, Izuma is a young man that generally keeps to himself and his small social circle, and does what he needs to do to advance in life. He doesn't have any ambitions, despite being a 4.0 student and the Ace of the marksmanship team.

He feels like he is drifting through life, and that pisses him off. He does have a bit of an over-protective streak, and this has made him try out for being a Hero, if only on the side, to try and help innocent people. Although it's relatively easily for him to get annoyed with, well, annoying people, Izuma does have a very collected mindset, and doesn't crack under pressure. He has an undeniable dry, sarcastic wit, and due to his ability to speak his mind, his sharp wit does come out on occasions, usually accompanied by a smirk. For those who truly anger him, Izuma becomes as cold as ice, and as fierce as an eagle. In this state, he will stop at nothing to take out the trash. Not literally, of course.

Equipment: One thing you should know about Izuma, is that he is an incredibly obsessive gun-nut, despite the strict laws of Japan, and he has connections to an incredibly efficient engineer/weapon's designer. Because of this, he has a wide variety of futuristic firearm weaponry on deck, and by on deck, I mean hidden on his person due to his incredible concealed-carry license, something he received when he was a little boy, by his now dead father. Pretty sure it's has some pocket-dimension technology. The weapons he has is based on where he pulls them out from. This makes him able to change weapons on the fly, and even as he slings the weapon away from himself to use the other weapon, it reappears within the spot he originally concealed it in. His 'signature' weapons:

Plasma Casters MK1 ;; Two light-weight, compact pistols made of a deep black steel alloy, with leather grips and ridges that glows a deep blue, keeping the guns from over heating. They are located within the pockets of his coat. They are semi-automatic, and each shot sends out baseball-size bolts of pure blue energy plasma, with the ability to burn through incredibly tough shells and metals, and especially monster flesh. By holding the triggers down before releasing, the Plasma Casters has the ability to charge up their bolts to give them extraordinarily more powerful damage. So far, the largest Izuma has charged the pistols, has been to the point where he sent out boulder-sized bolts, causing massive explosions that, when the dust settled, revealed two deep, very wide craters that showed signs of both melting and exploding, at the same time.

Enforcer Assault Rifle MK2 ;; An assault rifle, built from the same dark metal as the Casters, yet with a more recoil-reliant stock and grip. It is an automatic weapon, and sends out barrages of your run-of-the-mill bullets, yet the bullets are surrounded in a blue-ish glow, which both increases it's piercing power to damage monsters, and send sharp shocks with each bullet, allowing him to stunlock enemies that aren't as durable as a tank. Mostly used in tandem with other guns, in Izuma's literal gunslinging manner. It's concealed within his left pants pocket.

Akuma Boomstick MK3 ;; A shotgun, modeled after both the Remington and Spas. With enough stopping power to blow the skull off of a centaur, yet with relatively low range, it has to be used up-close and personal. The shells it fires is not of the normal variety, like all of his guns. The shell has built in combustible powder, which gives it a little explosion with each impact. Great for monsters, and located in his right pants pocket.

Viper Lazer Railgun MK2 ;; A more accurate, yet incredibly deadly weapon. A semi-automatic rifle with pin-point laser technology that can pierce even the most fortified defenses, and look damn good while doing so. The weapon is built with inspiration from a rather obscure anime cartoon Izuma watched when he was little. By pulling the trigger, the weapon will send out a long, powerful, painstakingly precise beam of crimson red energy, the energy even heating up the air around the beam. The trick is, once the laser energy 'tastes' blood, it implodes much like a souped-up molotov, consuming the enemy in flames. Flames that are very much normal, so it may not do much damage to stronger monsters, other than causing them immense pain and distracting them. The loud 'ZWIP' is a bit of a negative, but it's usually used as an opening for the battle against larger, city-wide monsters. It's one of the few weapons not constantly concealed on his person. It's in his apartment room, underneath his bed.

Abilities/Skills: Well, let it be known that Izuma is a hard-worker. He, like most potential heroes, gained his powers from training day and night. In his case, he began training a little bit earlier than most. His father was a gun-nut, a professional marksman that wanted his son to be even better than he was. Because of this, he pushed Izuma a little bit too much, having him training with many types of incredibly dangerous, military-grade equipment day and night. It's a wonder the cops weren't called. This is how Izuma gained his inhuman abilities.

Incredibly accurate and precise, Izuma possesses the gaze of a hawk, or an eagle. He can 'zoom' in on a target, and even scan over their forms for critical areas or chinks in armor - and target that area with extreme prejudice. His reflexes, instincts, and hand-to-eye coordination is similarly inhuman, with Izuma being able to easily dodge high-speed attacks and react when his amazing eyes finds an opening to exploit. Firearms training wasn't the only training he did. Having kept up a similar regime among his university studying, Izuma possesses immense speed, agility, and strength. His speed and agility is higher than his strength, and this goes in accordance with his acrobatic and jumping power, which he uses in conjunction with his equipment. He has been trained in hand-to-hand combat, even though gunmanship is his speciality, and can hold his own against similarly-skilled opponents.

Brief Backstory: This will be very brief. Trained by a master marksman, he was always a prodigy in the art of accuracy and precision, and has been trained to the peak of exhaustion ever since he was only a child. This, obviously, has made him into what he is today - a bit of a freak of nature amongst the more normal human beings around him. Despite this, he has attempted to carry on a regular life, despite the fact that he was anything but normal. After hitting a funk in his young career as a university student, not knowing what to do anymore in such a boring and dreadful existence, Izuma has turned to being a hero on the side of studying. It should help get out the kinks and depression.

Hero Rank: Unranked.
Motivation: He's tired of feeling useless, and wants to help others.

Detailed Information

Personality:
Level headed and all around mellow, Haitani is noted to be a rather calm person. In day to day situations, he likes to keep a peaceful state of mind. Though, in the past, there was a point in his childhood where his then bad attitude and overly serious disposition plagued his behavior. But this all changed after a serious "talking to" by his father one night on top of the Hokage Monument, which also saved him from his mother's wrath, more specifically, her belt. Haitani is usually seen with a relaxed expression on his face and is not easily angered by anyone save for a few key individuals in his life. As a result, he is very well liked young man, especially around where his Mother resides, which is also his place of residence.

Haitani does not consider himself skilled in the "art of small talk". Sometimes people who would think of him to have the tendency to be a loner at times. However, when asked about this by his , his quickly replied "It's not that I don't want to talk to some people, it's just we'd have nothing to talk about". He is in no way shy and, in fact, has exceptionally public speaking skills; neither is he not friendly. Though there are some people that are an exception to this rule, that even when there isn't much to talk about, he loves chatting with them anyway. Among these people are his bestfriends, Tetsuo Senju and Ryu Uchiha. Though, it's important to note that Haitani has made a good deal of friends, both in Konoha and in other lands.

Haitani also has an extreme thirst for adventure, which he has stated is one of the reasons he wants to become a shinobi, having the want to feel the world that his eyes can't see. Because of this adventurous nature, he tends to avoid taking 'the easy way out' at times. Haitani has no actual sense of caution and in fact, has been known to keep a very stern face, a smirk, or even literally laugh in the face of danger and walk into potentially harmful situations with a smug or stern expression on his face. For example, when he got in trouble for wondering Konoha and gladly took his whooping like a champ.

Special Traits
Haitani was diagnosed with blindness from the day he was born, a rare trait amongest the Hyuuga. This has effected him in a different way, having to learn to increase his reliance on his other senses. WIth his byakugan, he is affored a secondary sight through chakra and can train just as effectively as anyone else, just in a different way.
Haitani has always been a quite talented in the art of chakra control and taijutsu, as a Hyuuga should be, allowing him to move forward and advance despite his weakness of blindness. Forsaking genjutsu, and only ninjutsu not associated with advancing his taijutsu, Haitani is determined to become the greatest of his age.

Name of Technique:

Type of Jutsu:
Taijutsu
Rank:
D-Rank
Range:
Short
Nature Type:
N/a
Handseals:
N/a
Description:
A defensive application of the Gentle Fist, and a rather simplistic technique of the Hyūga Clan. Upon being struck by a technique, the user places their forearm outwards and does a side-step in order to evade the attack initially. In order to completely counter with this technique, the user subsequently exerts their chakra through the tenketsu near their wrists in a similar manner to Gentle Fist Art One Blow Body. In turn, this collides with the tenketsu that the user makes contact with through the previous evasive maneuver, blocking off their chakra pathway and subsequently allowing for the attacker to be blown away by the force of the chakra released by the user of the technique, giving the user an ample opening to exploit.
Weakness:
It easily susceptible to feints, pinpoint attacks, and basically just better taijutsu. It is a solely defensive technique that doesn't hurt the opponent.

Name of Technique:
Gentle Fist Orbiting Heaven
Type of Jutsu:
Taijutsu
Rank:
D-Rank
Range:
Short
Nature Type:
N/a
Handseals:
N/a
Description:
A rather unique application of the Gentle Fist. Due to the nature of the Byakugan being able to perceive the flow of energy - chakra - within a body, the user of the Gentle Fist may employ a singular palm strike to one side of the body, for example an outstretched right hand that is facing downwards. This, in turn, causes the chakra within the Tenketsu to be expelled at a rate high enough to completely upturn the energy flow of the individual, forcing them to lose balance and therefore fall to the ground after a spinning motion in the air. While it is intended to be used in this regard, most amateurish Gentle Fist users are able to do so with some assistance by a throw, albeit a light one.
Weakness:
Haitani is still a genin and has to grab his opponent and perform a light throw first. WHich is easier said then done for an individual that lack in strength
====================

Name of Technique:

Type of Jutsu:
Kenjutsu
Rank:
N/A as it is a style of combat that is dependant on the skill of the user
Range:
Short
Nature Type:

Handseals:
N/a
Description:
The Gentle Blade is an expansion of the Gentle Fist through the use of a blade, and a far more lethal variation of the previous fighting style. Much like the Gentle Fist, the Gentle Blade utilizes unique chakra flow and control to create a needle-like apparition around the medium in question - the blade. However, unlike the Gentle Fist style, the style is only used for lethal strikes. As explained by Nanashi Hyuuga, the moment one utilizes an armed, edged weapon alongside the capabilities of the Byakugan, there is no point trying to save one's life. This is because the nature of a bladed weapon both increases the range of the Gentle Fist style, but also causes the targeting of Tenketsu to be redundant. Therefore, Nanashi only utilized this style - and by extension his katana - during executions and the like, preferring not to cause wanton bloodshed.
There is a less lethal and temporary version that combines the Gentle fist ability to inflict internal damage through attacking the body's Chakra Pathway System, with the swift strikes and cutting ability of kenjutsu and chakra flow. When combined, instead of damaging the opponent's body on the outside much like normal kenjutsu, this jutsu cuts the opponents chakra network. This works by gathering chakra at the tip of her blade, then with a strike he surgically "cuts" opponent's chakra pathway system, causing damage to surrounding organs due to their proximity to the chakra circulatory system.
Weakness:
Haitani only learned the basics from his father and is effectively unable to use the lethal version of this technique. He is even very inexperienced with the less lethal version. The style can easily be contested by superior swordsman and those able to protect their chakra pathways and tenketsu.

Taijutsu
Rank:

Description:
It is widely known that the Hyuuga are renown for their Gentle Fist fighting style. The form is gentle and light, able to deliver devastating blows with nothing but a seemingly peaceful touch. However, the form is about more then fists, for the Huiga are experts as releasing chakra from any point upon their body. They are graceful, agile, and flexible. These are the principals of the Gentle Step.
This style of movement allows the clan members to move swiftly with great speed, as well as move evasively with their agility and flexibility. This is a stunningly different style of movement then what is normally seen in combat, for it adds a high degree of grace to the battlefield. This is a basic skill most Hyuuga know, but one that can be expanded upon in various ways. The technique itself does not necessarily require chakra, as it is done mostly through grace.Weakness:
This style is all about beinge evasive and attacking when an opening makes it self. Feints and a stalwart defense leave this style at a disadvantage. Being a style of combat, it is up to the practictioner on how potent the style is. Haitani is mostly self-taught in this style and makes mistakes and imprecise movements at times leaving him wide open for attacks.

@Kal-El

I like him. Considering they are the heirs of two of the most influential clans of Konoha, it's not unlikely that they would see each other often out of class. Seeing as they've been friends for ten years, I'm guessing that Tetsuo was around 5 when they met, and Haitani was around 6-7?

-Dead-

Cool, thanks. It's edited.

By the way, everyone, if you'd like to be friends/enemies/frenemies with Tetsuo, feel free to tell me. He's a very competitive spirit, lol.

-Dead-

@Jay Kalton Just noticed the second part. I generally suggest 12-15, with 15 being the 'Holy shit you graduated late' end of the spectrum. I know somebody here is 16, which is honestly weird as hell as that is the age when people tend to start looking into becoming Chuunin.

Why 12? Because they're still young enough that while immature, it is easier to shape their mindset to be able to handle killing.

@Jasonhero

Hm...that is true. I don't know, I guess the personalities/decisions made by the canon cast sort of made me cautious? Although, if it's all fine with you, I'd like to change Tetsuo's age down to 14. Wasn't sure if he'd be graduating late if I made him 15 or not, haha.

-Dead-

I believe @caliban22 is creating a female, as well. Diversity is nice indeed.

@Jasonhero Currently working on a character, and definitely still in this.

EDIT: By the way, is there a specific age our characters should be? I think the average graduation age in canon is 12, but some characters here are around 14-15 years old (which I actually think seems more age appropriate for one to become a Genin). So should I make my Genin 12-13 or 14-15? I know it's a bit nit-picky, but I'm just curious.

@Jay Kalton

And I made my character 14-15 because I still think it's pretty stupid to send 12 year olds into a potential war/danger zone, trained or not. As proven by Naruto, no offense to the guy, 12 year olds are a bit too immature at times, and considering the fact that this AU takes place in a war-tense timeline...

-Dead-

It's cool, I do not need to know. I was just wondering if there was a system.
