It was only just a few days ago that Arima Shuu had an undying urge to put into action this grandiose assault the Red Sages had planned for an extended period of time now. Countless efforts of preparation, resources gathering, coordination, training and careful planning, all for this event. Being the subject of slight nepotism, Arima had the chance to part take in Seijo's careful planning along with the higher jonin of the Red Sages, prompting him to express a powerful passion among his peers when mentioning the 'big event'. Having risen the spirits of his many friends and colleagues, he almost felt like part of this operation would be successful thanks to the admiration many of the new ones had for him.
This excitement would completely drown in the final, sleepless night he'd have prior to the festival. Devoured by fear of death and general stress of being for the first time in his life in a truly hostile environment. Until now it was easy covert operations and petty theft at Confederate warehouses that weren't that well guarded in the first place. But now, he was going to have to murder, and face people with the same obligations geared toward him. The idea alone of taking a life was making him anxious, having rarely conducted the act if he were to be frank. As the sun rose, Arima's mother, a woman whom take part in this invasion too, came along to wake him up, only to find him drenched in sweat and the body as tense as ever.
As much as his honor urged him to, he just didn't want to go, he didn't want to risk it all even if it was what he wanted deep down. Making his way to the base for final preparations, he long thought of the stakes all of this entailed. The people counted on him, his friends counted on his example but most of all his lineage would forever be tarnished if he were to cower away. His heart raced at the idea of being the black stain of the family, and as such, assaulted a poor, lone tree along the way to release his contained frustration of this dilemma. At least when he'd arrive, he'd be freed for that.
"Let's do this, guys."
He simply said as he entered the common room where the young were preparing for the big strike. All of them looked at him in awe while the more senior members either chuckled at the evident bullshitter or simply remained quiet, disillusioned or simply occupied. With these looks, Arima felt both immensely motivated to make them proud but also terrible for giving them hope that he couldn't even harness for himself. Time moved so fast at this point, and he'd barely even feel time pass during his own final preps. He wore his typical white attire with his navy blue boots and black combat gloves, never forgetting the Red Sages armband. The final touch would be a stolen ANBU mask to conceal his identity. Various kunai and explosive, the general shinobi weapons and he was ready.
"... It's showtime, I guess."
He mumbled to himself, followed by a silent sigh.
In the midst of the event, the young Tametomo had already blended in using the transformation technique to appear as a typical middle-aged man enjoying the festival like any other civilian next to his much bold cousin. Too stressed to even look normal, he never addressed her until the signal. He tried his best to contain his sweat, as he anticipated the signal with a twisted stomach. Eventually however, the flare would emerge in the clear skies of the border, accompanied by a powerful roar from the shot. Barely a second later, he would be ducking in his attributed position as the bombs went off in various places. He in turn, used the Kai hand seal to activate a couple of the tags he set himself, mostly on stands where people would be concentrated in.
"Go!"
He shouted for his nearby Red Sage comrades to hear before he'd revert to his normal, masked appearance. Without hesitation, he immediately jumped a confused guard shinobi with a kunai in hand, cutting up the back of his neck without even turning back a he kept running forward. He wasn't sure if he killed, he felt as though he hit, but the adrenaline made hi almost insensitive to a whole lot of things as well as making him unsure about mostly anything. He didn't think much however and focused on the mission. Despite all the smoke around, he could distinguish a few influential figures surrounded by above average shinobi.
This was his time to shine, he was going to get the bald head of that defenseless politician for his comrades, for his honor. His Glorious Cosmos activated, the boots becoming somewhat brighter with an electrical aura surrounding it. Jumping one of the shinobi by surprised again, he'd land on her face, thus giving her a nice, direct shock to he forehead. She'd be knocked out, but the others would take notice of him quickly. They didn't seem so tough, more like cheap state soldiers, but he feared that Confederation Shinobi of higher class would quickly jump at the opportunity to defend the government's assets. He dashed in an attempt to take the man down quickly while hoping that Neki would get rid of these fodder before they'd swarm him.
Yakoul Kakariko
The Confederation's General of Armed Forces
Stockpot Inn - Suna Border, 5 KM from the Festival
Ever since the death of Tarara Tametomo, Yakoul has been more or less ... Jobless. Not that it didn't have anything to do, it just didn't have any big army to completely crush. The thing is that it would be a bit sour toward the 11th Corp for taking the Red Sage's head instead of itself, but there were never hard feelings in that regard with the feline warlord. These days all it could really do was either do typical shinobi Jonin stuff and part take in more fun than average events. The Farming Feast wasn't particularly interesting, especially considering farmers were Yakoul's number one meals during its days as a stray beast. Nonetheless it made the effort to at least check it out, maybe see a tasty cow or two they'd be presenting during some sort of stupid competition of cattle.
The Red Sages would however catch Yakoul during one of its cat-like naps. Indeed, the bed in the Inn was just so comfortable that it practically skipped most of the interesting events of the feast. The sounds of the first explosion would be enough to have the Commander's right ear perk up and turn to the direction of the window. At first it thought it was just a bunch of idiots playing with explosives while hunting for dangerous animals, but as they increased, it felt compelled to get up with a groggy look. Walking its completely naked body toward the window, it checked by reflex the Inn's porch before gradually looking upwards to see if the bombs went off anywhere nearby. Despite its sleepy state, it didn't take long for it to notice the residues of the flare and the masses of smoke where the festival was taking place.
"Cock-a-doodle-what-the-shit is this?"
Evidently grumpy from such a forced awakening, it rubbed its face to see if it wasn't just seeing things since sleepwalking was a thing. Upon closer inspection, it realized it was absolutely true. Somewhat dumbfounded that such a boring and mundane event would have such a dramatic turn, it stared at it speechless for about ten seconds before grinning in glee. It was like it had just received the illuminating message of an angel revealing the path to salvation, its eyes sparkling in excitement as it finally had something worthwhile to do. Swiftly, it put on its regular clothes, a blue shirt, organe shorts and dark blue shoes. Nothing more, nothing less. Oh and maybe a few surprise tools under its sleeve.
As it ran out, of the Inn, leaving probably triple of the amount it owed the Inn-owner out of complete lack of mathematical prowess and hate, it employed its extreme speed to cheese through the five kilometers without any issue. It was mostly desert at this side of the border anyway so the trip didn't have too much of a problem. Taking just under a minute to arrive at the scene, it hopped on one of the old buildings set there so it could have a good overlook of the situation. Civilians maimed, rebels attacking wildly as if they were more scared than those they were terrifying, rookie state shinobi desperately trying to keep up with the more experience, politicians getting a dose of reality under the form of cool metal rubbing against their neck. This was war. This gave Yakoul some purpose again. And most of all, it meant the Red Sages would need a best friend again.
"Ho ho holy fuck. I'm unsure who to fucking root for, damn. 'Cause I kinda have to help my bitches, but then again you assholes are going to make this world shake! One can't just deny you that!"
It seemed to talk to itself with its somewhat feminine but croaky voice as if it has some kind of throat issue, thus making is somewhat a little more deep (and accentuating the gender issue). However a few meters away from it, an apparently low ranked Red Sage was using a camouflage technique and Yakoul had easily discerned him. Once he revealed himself, it was clear that it was address him without a hint of hostility. He seemed new, hence the reason why he didn't run upon seeing the Confederate General. However, upon feeling the intoxicating presence of Yakoul and the naturally dominating demeanor he had lost the ability to actually do anything. The cat-critter turned its head to face him with an eyebrow cocked.
"That means move your ass, dipshit. Before I change my goddamn mind. GO!"
It scolded the rebel, visibly uninterested in the small fry but also motivated to keep this chaos going for a while longer so it could justify bringing back the methods of its 'glory days'. The Red Sage didn't ask any questions and just ran through an alley, likely to be slaughtered by a Chuunin Confederate or whatever. The commander made itself comfortable in the meantime, observing the various little confederate shinobi that would prove interesting to work with after this amusing phenomenon while sitting down with its tail swaying.
I was impressed with the custom jutsu on Nori to be honest. They were quite good but were very simple at the same time - contrary to most custom jutsu which seem to try and be as complex as possible. So yeah, it was a welcome change and they were really well balanced. I desperately tried to find something to nitpick but couldn't find anything so that's good.
What I like is that it's Genjutsu done right. Apart from the A rank which I find to be somewhat of a waste unless he takes a very non-lethal path. The two B ranks were great ideas, yes.
@Lost in my Mind The idea is great. I've ran through it and there isn't anything flagrant. The fact that he's practically helpless without them balances a few things out. Approved.
@tex I think you've got enough reviewing for now. I may bring up a couple of things as I notice them a bit later but yeah you're good.
Review is in green.
“Sacrifice yourself to do one good thing, or live on to do many? Think about it.”
Standing at about 5'11" and weighing in at 150~lb, Nori is tall, lean shinobi, with an air of thoughtful relaxation about him. His bluish-black hair is trimmed slightly shorter than in the picture above, keeping the bangs out of his eyes, and the length in the back about halfway down the neck. His skin is rather pale, with sharp grey eyes, and slightly pointed teeth reminiscent of the Seven Ninja Swordsman of the Mist. Rawr
Attire-wise; in battle, he forgoes a flak jacket, instead settling for a chain mesh under a loose, sleeveless blue shirt, black shin-length pants, standard issue black sandals, arm-guards, and his dark blue scarf tucked into the back of his shirt; the Kirigakure plate is attached to the end of this.
Out of battle, his attire is much more modern; while he still sticks to wearing blue out of habit, he often dresses in semi-casual suit jackets, button-up shirts, slacks, and sneakers, varying to weather and situation as necessary. The only consistency is the dark-blue scarf, kept with him regardless of occasion.

Psych. report. Medical secrecy applies.
【Personality】 Nori is an analytical type. Even in casual conversations, he will take long periods of time to listen thoroughly to what the other(s) have to say before replying, replying only when he has found something worthwhile to say in response. He's often relaxing to be around because of this trait; you'll almost never be interrupted or ignored, and especially those needing to blow off some steam will drift to him. Let's get social!
The responses are where that line becomes less clear-cut. His honesty in his responses, and the depth he might go to analyze a statement, can lead to starting an argument that never needed to happen, or worsening an existing one. Not everyone likes hearing the truth. He doesn't seem to regret these situations, since the problem wasn't his fault in the first place. Some people think he's arrogant because of this aloofness, and they wouldn't be wrong. He'll become frustrated if people challenge his analysis, and even moreso if he happens to have made a mistake in his interpretation of the situation in the first place.
Being such a good listener though, sometimes he has trouble starting conversations, or holding them. He doesn't really have the social drive to keep up small talk for very long, and he also dislikes having to talk about himself. It takes work for him to honestly feel like opening up to anyone, and he grows extremely uncomfortable talking about himself or his past. Which leads to a conflict of interests; if he can talk to you about your problems, why can't he talk to you about his own? Sux
【History】 Nori is the only son of his parents, a non-shinobi father and a hunter-nin mother, in the unsteady Kirigakure village. With the years preceding the era of peace from the Hamajō Confederation, his mother was hardly ever home for the boy, constantly performing missions, be they for the village, or against its defectors. No questions asked has always been the terms of the Hidden Mist though, and so he simply smiled and nodded when his father constantly praised her mother as a hero, regardless of how dirty her job was. Even when she did return though, she never doted on him, unlike how he saw other mothers do with their children. She simply enjoyed the brief tranquility that would come between her missions as much as possible, and Nori accepted the exhaustion that came with his mother, the "hero."
As he grew into his Academy years, he himself trained diligently in the Academy, to become a "great hero" like his scarcely seen mother, and succeeded; he was quiet, talented, and most importantly, obedient. What he also learned however, is how to be an outcast; children in times of war are never settled, and they found every reason to question why his father wasn't a shinobi, and tease that maybe his mother wouldn't come back this time. He simply let them speak and continued his training; his father did everything he could as a parent, and his mother was a hero. He didn't have the nerve to question them early on, and didn't care once he understood later. Even after learning of just what the job of hunter-nin entailed, well, it was just another grisly duty, and he would be more than willing to follow his mother's footsteps in that role.
And then, during his graduating year at the Academy, the Hamajō Confederation had stepped in on the eve of peace and secured it. Upon the realization of this, his hopes were high. He was a shinobi now, just like his mother, and could finally understand what that really meant from the hero returning home from war. Twelve years and they could finally be a stable family.
That is, until she didn't. Not in the way he wanted. She was as busy as ever; the Confederacy wanted to keep their peace, and she had been stomping out traitors since before he was born. The hunter-nin ended up as busy as ever...and finally, Nori questioned why. If the war was over, why was she still being worked so hard? Hadn't the Hamajō Confederacy secured this peace? Even if it was strict, it was perhaps that much more comforting to have something so solid in the village of mist. Especially to the boy and his father who never knew if the love of their life was coming home.
And as he rose up to the rank of chunin, it would be a more grisly fate that answered him. He learned that the last time his mother had left had been her last. His mother had turned, and after the war, had been working with the Red Sages in opposition of the Confederation. False reports and faked evidence. The Red Sages they sent her after never died, only got to keep working with a new lease of having no target on their back. She was executed for treason. His father was no shinobi, and was believed when questioned if he knew anything. He was a dutiful chunin, and was believed as well.
So Nori's mother had gone from being a hero to a villain in an instant, after she had done her job so tirelessly for peace, and suddenly he was in conflict. He had idolized her; she was his hero since birth. And her job was to hunt down traitors. Friends of her village gone rogue. So why did she betray the village herself, after the war was over? He was an established chunin of Kirigakure, and by extension, the Hamajō Confederacy. She fought for the peace that they brought.
The hero fights against villains, and Nori had wanted to follow in his mother's footsteps. When he asked his father why, all he had told him was to believe in her. But did that mean preserving the peaceful tyranny of the Confederacy, or...was his mother fighting against a new villain?
【Family ties】 Nori grew up in a single-father middle-class household, with his mother visiting only once every several months during her time of service after she got herself off of maternity leave. He has no siblings. After the death
Naozumi Hisakawa | Father | 50, Kirigakure, unemployed. Suffers depression from the loss of his wife.
Koyori Hisakawa | Mother | 44, Deceased. Hunter-nin. Classified as traitor for assisting criminals against Kirigakure. Chalk up another one for the disney protagonist formula huehue
【Dreams and fears】 Nori's dreams are largely focused around becoming a successful jounin or hunter-nin, following in his mother's footsteps. Whether that means he will be a shinobi of the Hamajō Confederation or the Red Sages is yet to be determined.
Combat reports. Gathered from evaluation reports after missions.
【Fighting style】 Nori focuses around genjutsu-based combat, looking to manipulate his opponents into a corner with various Water-style ninjutsu and weaponry--most notably being a naginata--before locking them down with genjutsu and going in to finish the job.
【N/A】 Bloodline limit name: N/A Description: User possesses no known kekkei genkai.
【Custom made techniques】 Aquatic Bone Suffering Rank:B Range:Dependent Description: This jutsu causes all water created from a previous Water Release ninjutsu to have an extreme numbing effect to any skin in contact with it, extremely hindering the sense of touch, and in turn, making it more difficult to control the dampened areas. While the effect is immediate and intense though, it's reliant on how wet the opponent is; if they've been successfully dodging techniques, or happen to be in heavy armor, they likely won't be affected significantly. Likewise, managing to sufficiently dry themselves will remove the effect, and as with all genjutsu, if they are aware it's the illusion of loss of sensation, then they can mentally force themselves to overcome it if possible. The strength of the technique is its subtlety and range, the weakness being its ease of avoidance. Interesting ability, my chuunin has a similar ability though execution and effects vary. I like.
Jutsu name: Water Release: Seashell Current Discord Rank:B Range:Mid to long-range Description: An audio genjutsu, in which the user releases a quick jet of water from their mouth onto anything nearby. Those hearing any noise the jet of water creates, such as its impact, will begin hearing only the noise they heard the genjutsu create, be it a splash on another body of water, against a tree, etc., essentially cutting off their ability to hear. In combination with the Hiding in Mist Technique, it can be crippling to have one of your other means of locating your opponent crippled. The strength of the genjutsu lies in it's simplicity of execution and subtlety. The weaknesses lie in the lack of physical hindrance; the opponent is not incapacitated in any other way, and it can be avoided by not hearing the initial noise, and the technique can be overcome with sufficient time/chakra control. So a Genjutsu that confiscates hearing. I suppose that's cool, not a bad choice.
Jutsu name:Kingdom of the Eastern Seas Rank:A Range:Short Description:The user clasps their hand at an opponent's throat or forehead while casting the genjutsu, after which, the victim will be under the illusion of being dragged to the bottom of the ocean floor; painful, crushing water pressure, asphyxiation, no light, and no sound. These effects persist until the caster of the genjutsu releases their hand from the opponent, or loses the ability to channel the chakra. The weakness of the technique lies in its extremely close range, especially so with the need to grasp something as usually well-protected as a head or neck. The strength lies in the fast effects and sheer intensity of the genjutsu, crippling all senses at once, incapacitating most in short order. Extremely useful as non-lethal. Complete garbage if trying to kill as you can just stab the person in the neck instead of slapping. I like it. Pretty good stuff.
【Weaponry, tools and objects.】 Weapon, tool or object name:Customized Naginata Description:A 5 foot long bright grey naginata, with the bottom half able to collapse into the top to make it a more efficient weapon at extremely close range, as well as the tsuba consisting of a hardened rubber disk, to insulate electricity coming through the blade, knowing that his exclusive use of water techniques makes him quite vulnerable to an electric discharge. The coloration is exclusively for blending in with the Hiding in Mist Technique, to make the weapon harder to see.
Generally good character. Approved.
Vuur covered history well enough, didn't feel like repeating.
I feel like being diverse here. I'll be green from now on.
“First rule of fur faggotry: You don't recover.”
Akio has grown into her own over the years, bearing a much more mature and professional air. Her golden eyes now bear a guarded, almost emotionless gaze to them, and while she has cut her hair to a much shorter length than before, she still kept the fringes of her hair dyed black as reminder of her clan. She stands at about 5'10, with a slightly above average bust and a hourglass figure to match, making her quite the attractive woman. The only major detractors would be the multitude of scars that cover her body, earned through either combat or training, though the most notable would be three caw marks that make their way down the right side of her face, a parting gift from a giant tiger whose head she had turned into one of those chairs that hang from the ceiling.
Akio's casual wear tends to be a sleeveless turtleneck sweaters with a pair of matching jeans. Her shoes differ from low heels to regular running sneakers, depending on the activities she plans to do that day. On a mission, she'll wear a modified version of the Konoha flak jacket that's black in color and has a hood on it, a black turtle neck with long sleeves, and the standard shinobi pants and sandals. She also wears a pair of gloves that leave the thumb and first two fingers uncovered, so that they don't interfere with her archery. I give 7.8/10 too much lesbian

Psych. report.
Combat reports. Gathered from evaluation reports after missions.
【Fighting style】 Akio is a tactical distance fighter, though she's no slouch up close either, one can easily tell upon facing her that it isn't her preferred range. She has also proven to be rather tactical in combat as well, always keeping an eye out for an opportunity to take down her opponent quickly, and non-lethally if possible.
As well as being a tactical fighter, she's a very well of weapon's user, bearing exceptional eyesight and near pin-point accuracy and precision honed through years of constant, grueling training. Tryhard The same could also be said with her Chakra control, which she has worked extremely hard to get as precise as can be, as well as mastering every jutsu she has ever learned until she can do it with as few hand seals as possible. She bears a vast amount of willpower, and has also built up quite a tolerance to pain from her strict training. She, who lacks natural skill, has trained her mind and body to the limits of what is possible, and then pushed them even farther. She has somewhat above average strength and endurance for a chunnin Cuz she's a Jonin, but what is most impressive is her speed, agility, and dexterity, allowing her to dance around the battlefield with a honed sense of grace.
Name: Katon: Phoenix Egg Bomb(Subject to change) It's fine Rank: A Range: Mid Description: After making the needed hand seals, Akio conjures up a concentrated inferno of blazing heat, focusing it over her palm. It'll take a post for this jutsu to charge up, but when it does the flames will take on a egg-like shape as Akio thrusts her hand out to launch it at her foes. Upon impact with an object, the egg will explode with a huge amount of force and intense white hot heat. The radius of the explosion would be somewhere between 5-10m, though the intense heat can be felt from much farther away, burning skin, drying up moisture in the air, and causing fatigue through dehydration if an enemy is caught near the edge of the blast.
The explosion itself takes the form of a phoenix rising high into the sky. The flames that the explosion created will stay for about 2 posts, however, the heat lessening by a great deal until it finally fizzes out. At this point, Aoi If only that clown could can use this jutsu with little strain, upping her usage to about 6 times before it starts to take it's toll. If it's the same as before, is good.
Seiteki Suji no Jutsu (Static Strings Technique) Rank:E Make it D. E is for academy shit. Description: This skill allows the user to create strings of electricity that can either act physically as strings, or as a medium that can send small shocks to an opponent. One of this technique's most useful features is its ability to allow the user to detect outsiders. When the strings are placed around an area, they are often fairly difficult to see, and unnoticed by the quick eye. But when the string is used to detect outsiders, they can adapt a quality that is string-like and electrical at the same time. This quality makes the static strings into a string of electricity, but with such a weak current that it is rarely noticed by Shinobi who accidentally walk through the strings. However, when this happens, the user at once will feel a small shock in their fingers, or where ever else they are keeping the strings intact. But unless the opponent felt the weak current as they walked through the strings, the opponent will usually never know the strings were there. But beyond its ability to detect outsiders, this skill can be used as a normal string when it is needed but none is around, or it can be used to create small shocks to other people. However, the shocks are only a little bit stronger than static electricity, and usually do no damage at all. Same as before so k.
Jutsu Name: Raiton: Thunder Bow Rank B Range Mid to Long Can be fired at a target up to a 100m away Description: Akio forms a bow out of lightning chakra, from which she can draw back and fire bolts of electricity from, the amount of power dealt depending on how long she holds it for. A quick draw only does a low-medium amount of damage and has no lingering effects. A Charged shot, which takes about 1 post to form up, does a fair deal more damage and will leave the target temporarily stunned if direct contact is made. The charged shot can also be split into four homing shots, which'll lock onto the opponents chakra signature. These only do slightly more damage than a quick shot on their own, but if all three hit the same target, then the damage can be even greater than a charged shot and can explode out to damage foes within a meter of the target.
Akio can now fire a detonation shot with a charged up bolt, which is less powerful overall, but can paralyze a whole group of individual for a few moments. She can also create a piercing shot, which has more focused electrical energy for more power and damage, but has reduced ranged as well, only being able to go about half as far as a normal charged shot. The piercing shot can pierce through most standards armors and defensive jutsu of equal rank or lower, not including elemental weakness into play, in which it can probably partially get through lower A-rank Earth Style Jutsu and be halted by upper C rank Wind Style jutsu.
Static strings can be attached to the quick fire shots, so that if they hit, the user can hold the foe in place by running a constant stream of electricity through it, locking her muscles in place. If this is done, neither Akio nor the target can move so it's not a good move for one on one, but good for lining up holding an enemy in place for another teammate to take down.
Edit: Through training, Akio has managed to work down the weakness of her static strings down so that only one of her limbs is paralyzed and not her whole body, meaning that she won't be able to form jutsu while holding a foe down, but she can still move, dodge attacks, and counterattack reasonable well, though she still has to be able to keep some focus on the connection while moving, or else it'll break, thus she won't be able to move as fast as she normally could.I accept the edit.
Katon: Myaku Hitofuki no Jutsu (Fire Release: Pulse Blast Technique) Rank: B Range: Close to Mid Description: An extremely useful jutsu, this one has the effect of flushing out or separating multiple opponents. Hurling a fireball about the size of a basketball, it is meant to be dodged in order to be effective. For at center of this fireball is a gaseous core which, when the spherical attack finally makes contact with something, will explode and this gas will expand rapidly in a loud bang. The bang is simply a precursor though, as instantly afterwards a sharp concussive force will issue out all around the center of the blast. Though the explosion of the attack itself is not very strong, the force it sends out is enough to knock anyone who is within a certain radius of it flying. Same
Katon: Kudakasei no Jutsu (Fire Release: Shatter Force Technique) Rank: A Range: Close Range technique, with the base diameter of the blast radius being around 5 meters Description: Built upon the principles of Katon: Myaku Hitofuki no Jutsu, this technique instead acts as a much more powerful, centralized version. Gathering heat in between both hands the user focuses it until it cannot be condensed further. Manifested as a sphere of raw, glowing energy it is at first held at bay as if only for show. Then, given any cue, the user slams the sphere into the ground, causing it to explode with the power of pure heat behind it. The user is unaffected by this burst of power, but anyone within the radius of the blast suffers some unsettling consequences alongside the devastating concussive force it sends forth. This technique, by sheer strength alone, has even been known to crack boulders. Separate effects of the jutsu are that the intense heat dehydrates any opponents caught within the radius of the blast, drawing them closer to fatigue, blurring their vision and causing mild headaches all the while. Minor, first-degree burns may also result from this technique. Seems k
Jutsu Name: Raiton: Raikou Hitofuki no Jutsu (Lightning Release: Lightning Blast Technique) Rank: C Range: Close to Mid Description: This jutsu allows the user to fire off a continuous blast of electrical energy at an opponent, causing only minor burns but a great deal of pain as it courses through the foes system. It can be held for as long as the Akio desires, or shut off whenever she feels the need. I think Vuur mentioned that having there for as long as she wants is silly. Yah no. Just make it zappy zappy.
Jutsu Name: Raiton: Cloak of the Thundering Phoenix Rank: S Range: Self Description: A Variant of the Lightning Armor Jutsu, this jutsu cloaks the Akio in an intense aura of electricity that takes the form of phoenix around them. While under the influence of this jutsu, Akio's speed, reaction time, and physical attack power gains a substantial increase, though not to the level that is seen by users of the original technique, as well as boosting the power of her Raiton jutsu, thus negating the charge up of her more power Thunder bow attacks. She can also up her mobility on the battlefield by gliding and hovering in the air for short periods of times using the wings this jutsu gives her, though she has yet to achieve true flight using this technique. Finally, the wings can also be formed into a defensive wall at a moments notice, incase she's targeted by an attack she can't dodge, but they can only block a single attack of up to A-rank in power, and Wind Style jutsu of Mid A-rank and higher will always be able to partially get through these defenses. Once the attack has been blocked, the wings will disperse and Akio will spend the remainder of the jutsu's duration moving at a reduced speed compared to before, though still noticeably faster than her base speed, as well as no longer being able to hover or glide due to the loss of her wings.
This jutsu duration is for about 6 posts, though it can be lengthened to up to 9 by feeding more chakra into it, though this worsens the drawback once the jutsu ends. After the base duration runs out, her entire body will become numb and cause her speed and reaction time to drop as a result. This lasts for about three posts, but if she lengthened it, it can lengthen to about 6 posts and only allows her to move at a third of her base speed. If she tries to go over that limit, though possible, it will result in her body becoming completely paralyzed, as well as the obvious threat of chakra exhaustion. Itself is alright, seems a bit odd as an S rank tbh. In all honesty, even if it isn't original, I think Lightning Release Armor used by the Raikages is essentially a better version of this (with established limits). Up to you.

【Personality】 After the war and her break-up with Aoi, Akio has become a very emotionally withdrawn individual, BAAWWWWW focusing only on either training or her duties as a shinobi, and spending very little time socializing with others anymore. While she still has the sarcastic remark or joke ready whenever it's needed, she no longer talks with people in depth. If they try to get to know her personally, she'll either redirect the conversation away from herself or just shut down, not speaking another word until the person gets the message and leaves her alone. Ban Bossy.
Along with this, Akio has developed a bit of a drinking habit, Max Payne Feminist version not a terrible one, but noticeable. She always tends to have one bottle of some form of liquor on her when not on a mission, and she can be a bit cranky at times on missions due to the fact that she can't drink while on the job STOP WHINING, a self-imposed rule so that her habit never interferes with her work. On really bad days, however, one could find Akio totally hammered in her home, And thus white trash came to Naruto. in which she becomes a depressive, self-loathing mess that is constantly asking people to comfort her and listen to her problems, as well as provide . . . other forms of relief.
【History】
Before the massacre, her life wasn't really that great as her father saw her as nothing as a mistake and an embarrassment for two reasons. The first is that she was a bastard child, a mark of shame on his honor as the Tendou family patriarch, though it was that same honor that duty bound him to take the child in, as her mother had died during childbirth. The second reason was that she was never good enough, and while she wasn't the most skilled of individuals, she was still rather good, some would say better than most.
But it was never enough for Akira Tendou, he demanded perfection, and severely punished those who did not meet his requirements. And as she hardly ever did, she was often met with scorn from her father, who never once acknowledged her as his daughter. And while that should've devastated her, she didn't find herself minding too much. She never once considered Akira Tendou as her father in the sense that he was a man to come to with her woes, worries, and needs, as that regard went to her older brother, Kokatsu. Ever since she came into their home, Kokatsu was extremely protective of her, getting into several fights with Akira and most of them ending in some sort of violence. Since she was young, she never got to see Kokatsu darker side, and she believes that he wanted to keep it that way as he made extreme efforts to avoid telling her about his job in any specific detail. He also expressed some sorrow when it became apparent that she was going to be joining the Shinobi forces, though never actively spoke out against it, unlike her father who was certain that she'd never pass and if she did, never make it pass a lowly genin.
If things had continued as normal, then he may have been right, for even she had begun to doubt her self and her reasons for becoming a ninja, of whether she was ready for the life they lived. But instead, soon after her seventh birthday, all hell broke loose. A ceremony was held, as Akira had decided to pass on his position as Clan Patriarch to his son, claiming he had never been prouder for him. Kokatsu took the Tendou blade(an artifact past down from Patriarch to Patriarch since before the elemental nations were even concieved) and, with a smile as bright as the sun, slew his father where he stood, dropping the weapon to perform a quick string of handsigns before slamming his fingers into the fresh corpse.
An eerie red light rose from the ground around him, and it was until many months after the event that she would hear that at the time, seals popped up all throughout the city. And so it was that Kokatsu opened a portal between this world and a world of darkness to unleash death upon all who lived within it. Only a single order was given, spare the children of the Tendou clan, they had done no wrong. And so it was that behind a veil of darkness, hundreds if not thousands died horrid, painful deaths, all the while a menacing laugh would echo through out it all. When the barrier fell and the demons fled, Kokatsu held out his hand for Akio to grab, only for her to flinch away, looking at her blood trenched sibling in horror.
Akio couldn't remember a time where her brother had looked more hurt then at that time, and yet she also couldn't remember a time where he seemed more relieved. He offered no pressure or force, just left without a word, and leaving her alone in a nightmare of blood, death, and sorrow. After the event, the Tendou children were taken in and eventually handed over to adoptive parents to raise them. Of those children, four would go insane from the trauma of what they witnessed as they grew up, one even committing suicide after slaughtering his adoptive parents. Tendou children where treated with a mix of pity, fear, and for Akio, hatred.
Given how closely related she was to Kokatsu, there were people, kids especially, who would take out their grief of lost loved ones out on her. This made it hard for her to trust and approach people, and also made it so she hated her features that so easily gave her away. But in the midst of these hardships, an ember began to burn bright with newly discovered passion. She developed a burning drive to train herself, to become as strong as possible. She was able to pass the academy with only minor difficulties, and did her best in her genin missions no matter what the they were. However, in the early years of her life, this passion nearly consumed her, as she withdrew from everyone, constantly running herself into the ground, and then some, for a reason that she wasn't even sure of. In actuality, she felt partially to blame for what happened to Kokatsu, thinking in her subconscious mind that if she had somehow been there for him more, it could've been avoided.
As life went on, however, she found herself to be taken unde the wing of Tsukiko Umene. The older jonin would drop by from time to time to check up on her, and if she felt it necessary, beat her in to shape. While at first Akio resented the woman, she eventually began to grow more attached to her as time went on, to the point where she thinks of the wild woman as the big sister she never had. Due to Tsukiko's influence, Akio began to open up to other people a little more and try to overcome her weaknesses. Also because of Tsukiko, the young Tendou can tend to have a rather vivid and imaginative vocabulary when sufficiently angered or upset, as well as having a bit of a nasty temper.
As of now, she's living in a rented apartment in downtown, having moved away from her foster parents the moment she became a genin, never to speak to them again. You know I still get a Kurapika/Sasuke vibe from this, right?
The war was a defining moment in Akio's life . . . and not for the better. while she wasn't a stranger to loss or violence, she had never felt in the scale that she had in the war. Many good friends died in the fighting, only to die in vain as the Confederation came to rule everything. However, instead of being filled with anger and indignation, she just felt broken and afraid. As she recovered, she began to withdraw from the world, drinking more often, and geting into fights with her girlfriend Aoi lesbian, until it finally culminated in Akio breaking it off in a fit of drunken passion.
She immediately regretted it afterwards, but instead of going after her and begging forgiveness, she simply let the relationship die. Despite still having strong feelings for Aoi, she just didn't want to feel the pain of losing her, imagining that it'd be worse than anything else she'd ever experienced. Since she couldn't force Aoi to stop being a kunoichi, she decide that it'd be best for the two o end their relationship, thinking it'd be easier for both of them in the long run. This belief has long since died in her mind, as she only continues to feel more and more empty inside, but she feels like it's much much too late to fix her mistake. So she lives her days in misery, with her only companions being the alcohol she keeps by her side and the odd stranger that it invites to her bed every so foten. BAAAAWWWWWWW
【Family ties】 Akio feels nothing for her family name, and had nothing but fear for her father. Her brother and a few of the braver Uchiha clan members were the only ones in her family to show her any kindness, though not without punishment. Her foster family after the Massacre were kind at first, but soon grew distant as she showed a great lack in interest in them. After that, they simply ignored her and she ignored them. Not the perfect home, but it was peaceful at least.
Kokatsu Tendou | Half-Brother, Father figure, Shitlord | 42, Unknown, Jonin and Missing-nin
Makoto Tendou | Half-Sister| 23, Unknown, Kidnapped by her brother on the Night of the Massacre
【Dreams and fears】 Her main dream and fear are one in the same, as both haunt her every time she closes her eyes, screams echoing through the darkness and blood spattering against her eyelids. She wishes to find her brother, to face him down and then . . . she doesn't known what she'll do, and that terrifies her more than anything else in the world. She also has a very intense fear of snakes, for an extremely good reason. Her biggest hope, and the one she believes in the least, is that some way, somehow, her brother will be able to redeem himself and comeback home, so that they can be a family again.
On a less serious note, she does have a desire to find the right person and have the nice family she herself never had the luxury of having. Along with her fear of snakes, she also tends to dislike rodents and insects, though to a lesser extent than snakes.

“Uhhh . . . Never Give up? That's a good motto, right?” No
Tatsuya is tall at around 6'2, and has a rather muscular upper body due to his work in the forge. His hands and arms are covered with numerous scars, burns and callouses due to the work he does every day, but he wears them with pride as they are the symbol of all his hard work. His red eyes come from his father, and shiny red hair comes from his mother. He also has a tattoo on his upper right arm of Ketsui lodged in the mouth of an active volcano. He got it the day he became a Genin as a symbol to never forget the determination it took to get him there, so that no matter how long the road to greatness looked, he'd never give up.
His normal clothing style is usually a plain white T-shirt, some jeans and steel toed boots( a nessecity in his profession). He sometimes where a jacket if it;s cold enough for one, but more often than not, that's it for his casual wear. His combat outfit is a black, long sleeve shirt, a jacket over that, black combat pants and shinobi sandals.Don't feel like being snarky

Psych. report.
Combat reports. Gathered from evaluation reports after missions.
【Fighting style】 Tatsuya is a more weapon-based fighter, specialized in Kenjutsu mostly, as that is the weapon he uses most often, and has the most skill in using. That being said, his Taijutu is serviceable enough that he's not completely defenseless without his weapons, but it'll only do him so well for so long, especially against a skilled Taijutsu fighter. His Ninjutsu is also quite good, with a focus on controlling the battlefield rather than simply blasting his opponents away.
Up close, Tatsuya is a very good fighter, but he often has issues against distance opponent unless he can figure out a way to get them to come to him. He can either uses his jutsu to force his foe closer, or takes the battle to them instead. When it comes to using his Kekkei Genkai, he can sometimes use it to distract his opponents by making the ground underneath their feet really hot via forming lava just below the surface. A sneaky, but effective strategy, especially when facing an enemy of a higher skill level than him, as that split second distraction could give him just the edge he needs to either escape, or end a fight. Ok Good
【Kekkei genkai, or bloodline limit】 Bloodline limit name: Lava Release Been through this one so ok. Description: The lava release is a very versatile Kekkei Genkai that has multiple variations and abilities depending on how one uses it. For Tatsuya, he bears an affinity for manipulating volcanic materials like as Magma making a very, very deadly opponent to go up against. His Lava attacks can change the very battlefield, giving him a good amount of Offensive, defensive, and crowd controlling abilities. An added plus to this ability is that one can convert certain earth-style techniques into Lava style ones, at the cost of an increased chakra cost.
With some practice, Tatsuya has also been able to create a rubber-like material as well, which he can change the consistency of his chakra to make it work as an adhesive. While he's not skilled enough with it yet to use it in battle, in time it could add to his crowd control and supportive abilities.
Tatsuya himself suffers no ill effects from his use of this ability, and seems to have a bit of heat resistance as well, though not enough to make a real difference against a fire jutsu(this doesn't include his own lava, which he's immune to). It's a neat party trick for him to snuff out a cigarette on with his hands, but that's about it. Strengths: The lava style is a highly variable ability, granting nearly unparalleled offensive capability, effective defenses, and crowd control capabilities. Weaknesses: Lava attacks can be effectively countered by a strong enough Water attack, cooling down the magma into rock. Also, this ability is highly destructive, endangering both friend and foe if Tatsuya isn't careful about what abilities he uses and how he uses them.
Jutsu Name: Doton: Ishi Yoroi no Ude (Earth Release: Stone Bracers) Rank: D Range: Self Description: By taking dirt and rubbing it on their arms or legs, after performing the necessary hand seals, a shinobi is able to create very durable defensive bracers that add extra protection when using the arms to block. The chakra that is infused in them help to soften the blows of any physical attacks. These are very useful for taijutsu users or to defend against an onslaught of upper body blows. These bracers are designed to block physical attacks only. However, by channeling Yoton Chakra into the Jutsu, the rocks and what not can heat up to a degree that while the burns they cause are minor, they can be extremely painful and distracting to the opponent. k
Jutsu Name: Tsuchi Tou Tou (Swift Earth) Rank: D, B with the addition of Yoton chakra/used with his Lava Creation Jutsu Range: Current range would be 10 meter at maximum, with 2 meter width, and the earth moves at high speeds Description: When performing this jutsu the user places his hands on the ground and causes it to move rapidly away as if it were a conveyor belt. As the shinobi increases in skill and rank the size, speed, and range of this jutsu all increase. While little more than a delaying tactic, if mixed with Lava Creation, it can create a rather deadly surge of lava heading straight toward the target at high speeds. k
Jutsu name Lava Style: Lava Creation Rank: B Range: 2 meters in diameter for the starting point Description: The user will first channel chakra into the ground, thus turning the ground to lava. The process is quick, as the ground will melt away into the liquid-like lava. This lava can be used to aid in his other lava based jutsu by creating a source which he can manipulate, instead of creating it himself. To increase the base area that is converted, the user must have both of his hands in contact with the ground. k
Jutsu Name Lava Style: Lava Spray Rank: B Range: Mid Description: After making the needed handseals, Tatsuya builds up Lava Style chakra inside of his gut before blasting out a jet of molten lava into the air, causing a dangerous and widespread rain of lava droplets to fall to the ground. The spread of this jutsu makes it nearly impossible to dodge, though it can be blocked if the foe has the capability. Alternatively, Tatsuya can also just fire the magma jet directly at the foe in a fast moving stream. k
Jutsu Name Lava Style: Weapon Creation Rank: D Range: Any active Lava source with in 30 meters Description: The user of this jutsu will first channel chakra into an active source of lava, which will cause it to rise up quickly and making the lava thicker then usual, allowing the user to then mold it into a weapon with a few simple gestures. The weapons created will be about as hard as steel, but are usually rather crude and blunt. k
Jutsu Name Katon: Nenshou Tosshin (Fire Release: Burning Rush) Rank: C Range: Sphere goes is 2 meters long in diameter Description: A two-part technique in which the user blocks an attack by creating a sphere of fire around themselves, and after blocking the attack, the fires converge on his arms, upper body, and his feet to cloak him in flames. The fire on his feet can be used twice to launch him at his foes somewhat faster than before, and the flame on his hands and upper body make his Taijutsu more damaging due to being wreathed in flame, making it so that his attacks can inflict 2nd degree burns on the subject and get through most forms of clothing. The effect lasts for about 3 posts. I find this technique strange but not really an issue. So whatever.
Jutsu Name Lava Style: Grand Magma Dragon Technique Rank: A Range: Close to Mid Description: A versatile and powerful trump card in Tatsuya's arsenal, this jutsu is a last resort technique in most cases due to the high chakra cost. After making the needed handseals, Tatsuya slams his hands into the ground, causing the ground behind him to split as a large amount of hot volcanic rock burst from the ground. The rock quickly takes shape into the fearsome head of a dragon made from rock and magma, which will then let out a roar of dominance as it circles around the Tatsuya defensively.
The dragon is extremely sturdy able to tank through most jutsu of equal rank without dispersing, and the ways it can mess up a foe's day are wide and varied. While it can go the normal route and crash into the foe in an onrush of heated rock and lava, it can also launch a variety of projectile attacks, such as explosive balls of volcanic rock that can explode into fiery shrapnel, shoot out jets of liquid lava that not only can be dangerous to the touch, but also be used to back an enemy into a corner and cut off escape roots, fire a barrage of small lava pellets that are difficult to dodge and cause intense searing pain and first degree burns if they make contact with a foe, as well as self-destructing itself while doing a charge, causing a rather large explosion as a result. The first and final attacks will immediately end the jutsu, and the projectile attacks will weaken the construct if used multiple times, causing it to become more fragile, and also leaving it with less material to launch at the foe.
This jutsu can last around 3 posts, making it work as an effective defensive jutsu, though repeated hits will weaken it's overall defensive capabilities, unless they're Water Style techniques. While these will nullifying its offensive capabilities, it will also strengthen the defenses by solidifying the magma, though it won't be able to move and intercept threats to Tatsuya.
After using initiating this technique, Tatsuya will be hit with a great deal of fatigue, making him unable o effectively dodge or otherwise move quickly for about 1-2 posts after this attack, nor will he be able to use his shield that well due to the having very little chakra left. After its use. Even after the cooldown, Tatsuya will be left greatly weakened by this jutsu, thus why it's his last resort trump card.
You know what? Because of what you've mentioned earlier, I'm going to just let this go and look back at it when you're decided.
【Weaponry, tools and objects.】 Tool Name: Bag of Dirt Description Enough said
Weapon Name: Ketsui Weapon Type A double-edged Bastard Sword Description Ketsui is the sword that Tatsuya had to make to be allowed to become a shinobi by his father, a blade of unquestionable quality and a showing of true talent and hard work to be made by one as young as him. NOt only does it have a keen edge and made from durable metal, but during the forging process(where a mix of traditional and modern techniques were applied) he inscribed special seals into the metal to give it an extra function. The blade could now store elemental chakra with in itself and circulate it through the blade more effectively, enabling it to more effectively take on the aspects of whatever element it pumped into it. This also makes it capable of forming advanced chakra natures, such as Tatsuya's own Lava Release, with remarkable ease. And since it's able to store chakra as well, that means that one can fully charge it before a mission and activate and deactivate the seals inside with a simple one handed seal and a little chakra.
Chakra effects: Fire: The blade is wreathed in a thin, but intense veil of fire, allowing it to cut through metals with only moderate difficulty and cause third degree burns.
Earth:The blade becomes denser and more durable
Lava: The Blade becomes as Hot as Molten Lava, cutting through metal with ease as well as getting a slight increase in durabilty
The charge is big enough that it can keep the blade active for a total of 5 posts. The Lava style requires more chakra, however, so he can only hold that for about 3 posts instead of 5.
Sure.
Tool Name: The Mark II Chakra Gauntlet Description This slightly bulky metal gauntlet holds some moderately complex hardware to make a more versatile version of the chakra shields used by the puppet-nin of the sand. It has a small disk-like object above the wrist which projects an energy shield around itself using the users chakra, and while the cost for maintaining the shield is low, the cost increases when blocking an attack. The stronger the attack, the more chakra it takes to defend against. At his current level, Tatsuya could defend against an A rank jutsu, though the action will leave him feeling somewhat fatigued afterwards. The chakra shield can be enlarge or shrunk at a moment's notice, and can even be launched along with the disc to make a decent weapon or a distraction. The projection disc is detachable, and Tatsuya usually keeps 3 extra's handy just in case. Tatsuya only has the one gauntlet, as it's still a relatively new piece he made in conjunction with his mother. I honestly don't mind it. May change depending on what you do with A though.
Tool Name: First Aid Kit Description A basic medical kit that holds several chakra pills, first aid supplies Not in battle.
Weapon name: Shuriken Description: Sharpened, four-pronged metal stars, useful for throwing. They can also be used for close combat, but not very efficiently. Although small, they can be used to distract, pin down enemy shinobi, or if accurate enough, can kill or incapacitate an enemy. They have an open circle in the centre, useful for grabbing with a finger, to avoid cutting oneself, or to put thread through. The circle is also beneficial to the weapon's overall aerodynamics, ensuring more accurate trajectories.
Weapon name: Kunai Description: A black dagger with a handle wrapped in bandages and a small ring attached to the end of it. The kunai is designed for thrusting and stabbing, though it can still do some damage if thrown despite not being designed for it, and is about the length of one's hand.
Weapon name: Explosive tags Description: These tiny slips of paper with seals drawn on them can pack quite a punch if used correctly, and can even be attached onto an enemy directly. Also can be attached to thrown kunai for accurate delivery or have a bunch wrapped into a ball for a more devastating payload.
Medical secrecy applies.
【Personality】 Tatsuya is an honest and sociable sort, one who believes that the best way to get something is to earn it through the sweat of your brow and the strength of your will. He's very open in both mind and personality, accepting of pretty much everyone, and at times a bit too forgiving, which people have taken advantage of in the past and probably will continue to do so in the future. However, don't take that as him being slow witted or foolish, as his mind is as sharp as the blades he forges, and he has a keen intuition, honed by years of attending his family's shop, for picking out when people are lying to him or trying to pull the wool over his eyes. He tries his best to remain courteous with all kinds people, but he's no pushover, and if you don't back off nicely, he will make you back off, whether it be through words or actions.
Tatsuya is also a bit of an artist, putting his experience in the forge into various metalworking projects and sculptures. While he's not terrible, it's obvious to see that e's still trying to find his niche with the art, as every piece is very different from one another, and he has yet to see one he particularly likes yet. He's also good at drawing, but that kind of a necessity when making designs for weapons, armors, and other such works, but he does sometimes take time out of his busy days to just relax and draw the world around him, mostly just random people on the street who catch his interest.
While usually rather humble and modest, Tatsuya takes great pride in what he calls his true art form, forging weapons and armors of his own that have a cool style while still remaining practical in use. He treats every work like a piece of art, and has also taken to learning several weapon types, because he always feels that if he knows how to use the weapon himself, he can better forge it for his customers. His favorite type of weapon is the sword, but he's also learned how to effectively use other weapons, such as the staff, spear, and Naginata. Same as before so k.
【History】 Tatsuya's father comes from a clan of reknowned blacksmiths that originated from Mizu no kuni. They were known as the Kajiya Clan, and it's said that it was members of their clan responsible for forging the blades of the Seven Ninja swordsman. However, sometime after the rise of the Seventh Hokage, Naruto Uzumaki, a faction of the clan separated from the main branch and left Mizu no kuni, for reason's that very few outside the clan know about. The faction soon splintered off from each other, settling in several different lands across the world, keeping the name of their clan where ever they go to show that they still pride themselves in their linage.
His father, Katsuo, was born and raised in Konoha, living there for 17 years before he decided to travel to Kirigakure in order to find out more about his heritage. It was there were he met his wife-to-be, Katsumi Terumi. She was an eccentric inventor, and often considered to be the black sheep of her clan due to her . . . odd mannerisms. While the two didn't get along when they first met, their mutual love to create eventually formed into a relation ship, and after a 5 years, Katsuo returned home with Katsumi to Konoha with her father's blessing, where they were to be happily married 3 years later.
Fast forward 10 years in the future to the birth of Tatsuya, their second child and first born son. Tatsuya's early years where tough at first, as he was a rather weak baby, but he pulled through, eventually growing healthy and strong without any complications. Tatsuya soon spent a great amount of time with both of his parents in their respective workshops, and while he tended to lean towards his dad's work then his mother's, he found both of them interesting. As soon as he was able, he would assist them in every endeavor they undertook, no matter how small a task they gave him to do. His family was a happy and connected one, for the most part.
The only real conflict ever presented before him was his father's staunch resolve to deny him from becoming a shinobi. Katsuo had seen both his father and brother become shinobi, only to die meaningless deaths and only him and his mother around to mourn them, and he didn't want Tatsuya to become just another forgotten grave in the cemetery, killed before his time because he was nothing but a pawn for the Confederation to use at their leisure. Tatsuya, on the other hand, was adamant about it, wanting it more than anything else. Finally, Katsuo agreed to let the boy become a shinobi, but only if he could make a weapon that would impress him, and not a second before. The task was seemingly impossible for a then 10-year old Tatsuya, but he went at the challenge with a determination that blazed liked a wildfire.
Using Kajiya sealsmithing techniques, as well as his own talent and skill with the tools available to him, he worked on numerous weapons, each a good viable weapon, but never reaching Katsuo's standards until one day, 4 years into the agreement, when he presented Ketsui to his father. The blade was spectacular, it's functions both practical and unique to it. It was a weapon deserving of the name Kajiya, and true to his word, Katsuo finally allowed Tatsuya to be a Shinobi, though he still doesn't like the idea.
More or less adds up to the premise so all good.
Katsuo Kajiya | 51 | Father, Reknowned blacksmith and owner of the Kajiya Weapon Store, where Quality is guaranteed, located somewhere in Minato City
Katsumi Kajiya-Terumi| 53 | Mother, An intelligent weapon maker, she's fallen into depression after the destruction of her homeland, and though it has had some breaks, the sadness always returns in the end
Manami Kajiya-Terumi | 26 | Sister, Works at the shop full time and is currently working as an apprentice under her father.
【Dreams and fears】 Tatsuya dreams of one day making a weapon that is on par with that of those of the Seven Ninja swordsman, as well as becoming a reknowned shinobi that would be an inspiration for others. Tatsuya somewhat fears his Kekkei Genkai, as he's afraid that he might accidentally hurt, and even kill someone one day due to him not being able to control it properly.

Decide your A rank, if you keep this one, Vuur's remark suffices.
Most of it is fine. Just tell us what you'll do with Tatsuya and most of it should pass.
@l0ck0n Uh, we like to say we're high casual because we're egotistical fucks like that. But we're accepting of lower levels too, but we do expect 1-2 paragraphs, and of course steady evolution from those not so confident.
Your assumption is wrong sir. I recommend checking your assumption privilege and come back to lick my victimized feet.
Kidding. But no we accept after as well. We'll eventually say when we've had enough. Which will be soon. I think.
@shinomori1117 There isn't really a deadline, but I think you'd want to hop into the action as soon as possible no?
Now, for Yukigarkure, sure why not. Consider it a small Province that isn't worth that much. And yes, there is Ice Release that you can have, no problem with that too.
Ultron's final 'breaths' made Eto feel a little tingly inside, it felt so strange to 'kill' a robot all the while not actually killing him as she knew very well. This prompted her to lick the robot's metal cheek in bizarre fetish before removing the Kakugan on her right eye, appearing somewhat normal again. As Ultron tried to remove as much data as possible, Eto would completely crush the core, preventing the robot from having the resources to actually do anymore. Nonetheless, Ultron would survive without a problem and most of his memories corrupt, but still enough to salvage so the Outliners could get some information. The core completely fried Eto's hand, but we all know that had no relevance to the young female ghoul.
Tossing the arm she previously severed toward Cyano, Eto would comply with the woman's suggestion by effortlessly extracting the lifeless body's head before passing it like a ball to the female. At this point, Starscream would attack, though targeting mostly Cyano. The little ghoul noticed the jet had left the Universe by now, not that it really mattered, she now knew that the founders and probably their recent recruits weren't on par with her, making future planning easier.
"Whew~ Even if he's the weakest, he's also the hardest to kill of the four. I suppose Bowser is the easiest to handle after that, though ... If he becomes bit and ugly he may very well be the only one I'd require my Kakuja to defeat."
She spoke almost as if she was in her own little bubble. After a few moments, she'd use her Kagune to also pass Ultron's body to the female scientist as it could be of use to her.
"Oh yeah, he uses a special metal~ Maybe you're interested, I don't know. I can't break it, so that's something, right?"
She wondered, not that invested in the idea since armor only slowed down her pretty efficient speed when not a big, flesh eating monster. She turn to look at Grimlock who would quickly run out of things to crush due to Ultron's and Starscream's retreat. Slowly, she'd bet his giant dino leg and grin at him.
"Hey there Dino! Thanks for help, you were a sweetheart. Say, you got anything interesting to find around here? You know ... Some treasure or tools we could get to stronger?"
She asked the robot almost as if Grimlock wasn't some unpredictable beast, but surely she demonstrated her superiority in power with her last display. The ghoul would turn back to Cyano, checking up on her progress with Ultron's brain. They were likely not going to find complete data, but they were searching for two important key factors: The current leader, and the special elite force they have in stock and Eto would have only heard about a little before deserting the gang.
