I think you should try to make your character less of a Mary Sue. You're trying to give them weaknesses that aren't actually weaknesses that are then counterbalanced by strengths that are too strong. It doesn't make for a pleasant character to play as or interact with.

【Kekkei Genkai】

[I]Name: Ōke Renkin [Royal Transmutation]
Type: Ninjutsu
Clan (If Applicable): Susumu

Description: The Susumu family originally obtained their Kekkei Genkai when the clan’s founder made a clandestine bet with a powerful demon and won - rather than pay up honestly, the demon forced the man to suffer his hubris by making it impossible for him to weave jutsu that did not destroy everything that he loved. Through years of careful asceticism, the clan prospered, but he never shared the secret of how he obtained his strange Kekkei Genkai.

The main power of the Kekkei Genkai is to alchemically transmute materials into gold. It was originally considered forbidden, as the transmutation could only be created by use of an elaborate blood ritual that would turn a living being to gold, but careful refinement of the principles of chakra use have rendered the technique more benign and usable outside of its macabre origins.

By flowing the user’s chakra through an object with the aid of a seal, which is typically tattooed onto the practitioner’s hand, the atomic makeup of the recipient object is rearranged to become gold. The process is very energy inefficient, but the seal permits use of the energy created by rearranging the subatomic particles to be used in the transformation, mitigating the costs and preventing needlessly large explosions.

【Custom Jutsu】

Name of Technique: Kokko no Inkan [Seal of the Treasury]
Type of Jutsu: Fuuinjutsu
Rank: D
Range: Personal
Nature Type: N/A
Handsigns: N/A

Description: The seal of the Susumu clan that allows them to direct their transmutational power more effectively and efficiently. It is typically tattooed onto the user at the age of ten, on the palms, so that they might learn how to master the techniques early.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Technique: Midas no Te [Hand of Midas]
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: C
Range: Personal
Nature Type: N/A
Handsigns: N/A

Description: The Hand of Midas is the most basic of the Susumu clan’s transmutation techniques, requiring only the unique chakra that the bloodline confers to be used. The purpose of the technique is twofold, and has to distinct modes that can both be used in various fashions to accomplish different things.

The first method simply transmutes base metals or rocks into gold. The gold is a hundred percent pure, but is unstable for upwards of an hour due to the absence of the seal, which would normally stabilise the atomic makeup.

The second method uses the principle of the transmutation, but does not actually turn the object into gold. The object is destroyed, and releases a tremendous amount of energy as it disintegrates, creating small explosions. The disintegration can be on an atomic level or a less fine level, allowing the clan to easily turn rocks and such to dust.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Technique: Kachi no Geraku [Depreciation of Value]
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: B
Range: Personal
Nature Type: N/A
Handsigns: N/A

Description: The user inserts their chakra into a non-human object, using their seal as a buffer, and causes the object to begin to disintegrate, storing the energy that is created. The object will decay over the course of an hour, and will immediately decay in the presence of chakra. Objects imbued with a high concentration of chakra cannot be affected by this technique.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Technique: Kin no Keshōita [Veneer of Gold]
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: C
Range: Personal
Nature Type: N/A
Handsigns: N/A

Description: The user coats their skin or an enemy’s skin in their unique chakra, causing it to begin to be transformed into gold. Due to the presence of the Kokko no Inkan on the user’s body, this process is easily reversible and painless for the user, but is very painful for non-Susumu targets and is very difficult to reverse. Once the skin has been converted to gold, the user becomes very resistant to physical attacks but vulnerable to Katon techniques.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Technique: Fukuri [Compound Interest]
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: C
Range: Close
Nature Type: N/A
Handsigns: N/A

Description: The user hits a target with their seal, imprinting it onto their skin for up to 24 hours. The presence of the seal stabilises Susumu clan technique used on the victim, but as a side effect increases the chakra cost of all of their techniques, steadily increasing over the course of the seal’s duration. Certain Susumu clan techniques require Fukuri be placed on the opponent.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Technique: Zōshūwai [Bribery]
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: B
Range:
Nature Type:
Handsigns: N/A

Description: The user consumes a Fukuri seal, in the process sending waves of transmutational chakra throughout the target’s body. For the next forty-eight hours, the target is unable to use offensive techniques in the presence of the Kokko no Inkan (fifty feet) unless they are imprinted again with a Fukuri seal.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Technique: Gizō [Counterfeiting]
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: A
Range: Variable
Nature Type: N/A
Handsigns: N/A

Description: The user imbues gold coins with the Kokko no Inkan and a small amount of their chakra. The coins can be used as weapons, or simply given/traded off. Whenever a non-Susumu person’s bare skin comes into contact with the coin, a chain reaction is triggered that causes the coin and the surrounding flesh to explode. If the victim has a Fukuri seal, that explodes too. The initial explosion from an average sized coin is approximately the same from a single packet of C4.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

【Personality】
"For her family, Akaritori made a funeral pyre of Exae."

Akaritori is a woman scarred by the horrors of this world. Once, she was a champion of the Light, of purity and chastity and virtue. Those times died when her family did, and after the atrocities that Akaritori witnessed, she has taken her light to a darker place. Once, Akaritori was a kind woman who wanted to spare the world from its pain. She worked day and night to learn the arts of the sword so that she could stand up for those who could not take up arms themselves, and though she did not realise it, a great evil was born with her - for with conviction there must be absolute belief, and absolute belief brooks no threats to its authority, imagined or otherwise. Akaritori was virtuous to the extreme - she believed that all life, no matter how marred by imperfection, should be protected - for life is a precious gift, and squandering it is a great crime.

No matter how strong one's belief becomes, it should never define them. Conviction should never become the singular facet upon which the delicate balance of the mind rests, but for one as fervent as Akaritori, this downfall was perhaps inevitable. The worst moral crises are those that the mind has imposed on itself by virtue of its own conviction, and it was Akaritori's great faith that finally broke her spirit - for her faith was so great that mere facts could not shake it, and this staunch belief was turned against her. When one life claims another as its own, what can one who believes that all life is sacred do? Akaritori could not hold on to her pristine ethical code and simultaneously save the lives of her people, and this raged inside of her like a great battle for many years - each life she took trying to prevent more of those who she had grown up with from being assimilated brought her closer to her demise.

It is not easy to wash out the blood on one's hands - especially that which is only imagined - and just as each death killed a little spark inside Akaritori, each life she saved brought her closer to the light. For a warrior so ensconced in the light which she so firmly believed in, Akaritori was blind to how it blinded her, and she wandered alone in the dark, unable to see for all of the blood she imagined was dripping down her face. There is only so much that a single person can endure, no matter how brilliant their light may be, and the brighter the light that sustains you, the darker the shadow it casts. The shadow of the candle looms tall even as its light grows dim, and the longer the shadow, the greater the darkness that will inevitably consume it.

Now, Akaritori is but a husk of her past-self. Her core remains sacrosanct, but the morals that surround it have fallen to the darker side of the psyche, and where once a desire to save all life was fostered a great rift has formed, a rift that has consumed purity with vengeance. The innocent must always be protected, such is true to her core, but Akaritori can no longer bear the pain of her failures, and she targets evil indiscriminately. She vanquishes those who have fallen to the allure of "black magics" with the same conviction she once would have fought for their life with, slaying them before they can harm so much as a single innocent with their selfishness. After her fall from grace, Akaritori became much darker, much more prone to fits of grief-driven vengeance. She has become a woman who hunts the forces of night ruthlessly, and is eager to condemn all those who would harm the innocent, even at the cost of everything else.

After finding Windspeaker Touho, Akaritori has begun to reclaim parts of who she was, and in the same vein parts of her have died - she is a fairer, more just individual that is not wont to reckless acts without provocation. Still her heart seethes with rage at the injustices that occur in the world, still her mind burns with the desire to cleanse the impure, but she now has more temperance and patience with which to bolster her almighty power - and those under her have benefited greatly from it.





【History】

The woman known as Akaritori began her life in a peaceful city from across the seas known as Alaria. Exae was a peaceful and prosperous city, with three main districts - Exae, the home of Law, Nykt, the home of Mystery, and Naya, the home of the Wild. When each of the districts of Alaria worked together, the results were legendary, and the city glowed among its brethren like a glittering jewel, a marvel of the works of cooperation and the human spirit. There were times when one or more districts did not cooperate, such was expected, but they were far and few between. Alaria was a glorious city of progress, and all of its inhabitants lived in a golden age. Akaritori was brought into the world on the back of perfection, and she was raised to do nothing else but bask in its glow.

Akaritori was always a happy child, even from her first day in this world. She was never too problematic, never cried too much, and her parents would swear that she'd sleep through the night just so they could get some rest. Love was abundant in the life of this particular child, and it shaped her, over years, into a beautiful child. Akaritori's hair glittered like the sun, and even her body had an almost papery translucence to it, shimmering with all of the hues of the sun. Akaritori was radiant, and her parents knew what that particular fact meant: Akaritori was born with the Hokori no Exae [Pride of Exae]. Gifted with the rare genetic mutation that happened semi-frequently in the city, Akaritori's destiny was carved out for her from the second she could walk.

Though the love never left her life, its presence was withdrawn when Akaritori was taken from her loving family to be trained in Exae's arts of swordplay. It was expected that members of the Pride would be proficient in all of Alaria's customs, from Exae's swordplay to Nykt's artifice to Naya's compassion. Each of these lessons were taken well by the young Akaritori, but she demonstrated by far the most skill in her home district's abilities, those of Exae. Akaritori grew up to be an exemplar of the values that Exae held above all others, and she was chosen to be the Champion of Exae, the fated hero who would guide Exae to a shining new destiny. Many had forgotten that the title of Champion had been the result of a prophecy where doom would come to Alaria. Most, but not all.

It was on her twenty-first birthday that Akaritori was approached by a hooded woman, in the colours of Naya, who pressed a letter to her chest and said: "Persevere, for the darkness encroaches. Seek out Ophiuchus, Keeper of the Precepts.". The letter - white ink on black paper, and the seal of Nykt upon its edges - which warned her of the upcoming battles she would face. Akaritori, a woman who had always been a champion at heart, could not ignore the dark portents that had been revealed to her and she sought out the woman in Naya who had sent her the letter. She found nothing but dust. For three years, Akaritori pressed her concerns to the back of her mind, and continued on her duties as a protector of the innocent. When she turned 24, she woke up one morning to find the letter that she had received three years ago on her bed, with new writing replacing the old. There were only two words on that piece of paper, but the scrawling script and eldritch curvature of the lettering chilled her to her core:

"We arrive."

Akaritori immediately took up arms to find the mysterious beings that had changed her letter, but after a day her search ended with nothing. She chose to retire to her chambers, but as the sun began to set the encroaching darkness revealed signs of a plague within Exae. The next few days are what shaped Akaritori's entire life. After a few days of careful study, it was determined by the healers of Naya that the plague was no ordinary disease, but was a parasitic organism that consumed the mind of its host and used the flesh to build itself a body before roaming to infect others. Very few people were initially infected, but the plague spread quickly if left unchecked, and so much as a single escapee could devastate the entirety of Alaria. Fortune had it that as the plague hit Nykt had a massive argument with Naya about the price of ore and other materials, and despite both Naya and Exae's urging to Nykt that the plague was more important, the council of Nykt would not listen, and withdrew all of their support to Exae, sticking exclusively to their own district.

It was not long until Nykt fell to the plague - three weeks and not a single sound except the crunching of bones and the screams of the damned could be heard from Nykt. Exae and Naya quickly banded together to fight off the army of plague, and a state of war was declared. Exae and Naya both called upon their greatest champions, and the Pride of Exae was to lead the charge into Nykt. Akaritori agreed to the charge readily, and lead the most powerful members of the Exaean Caste to war. The war waged for many years, and in those years, the outskirts of Exae and Naya both fell to the plague, but the corruption was stymied enough that as a whole, the two cities managed to survive. Akaritori was largely successful in her campaign to root out the corruption in Nykt, and after four long years she had managed to save as many innocent lives as possible. The Nayans and Exaeans had managed to halt the corruption in those infected, but they would never be able to cure them. It was enough to survive, but not enough to save the innocent. That was a trade that Akaritori simply was not willing to accept, and she pushed the council to find a definitive cure.

At long last, the combined efforts of Alaria managed to halt the spread of the plague long enough that, finally, Akaritori could take a breath and relax. She went back to Exae, and she asked the magistrates if she could see her family. The reply was swift and brutal: Akaritori's family had died within the first year of the war, overcome by plague before they could evacuate. Akaritori was never told for fear of her becoming too mournful to fight. Akaritori left Exae quickly, and fled to the ruins of Nykt where she began to mourn for her family. As she thought about her family, her sadness gave way to an incredible rage - the loss of everyone she had ever loved, and she had not known for six years. She was furious at the Exaeian Council for not having the decency to have told her, and in a fit of grief Akaritori plundered the last remaining archives of Nykt's knowledge. She learned of the true power of her Pride of Exae, and it was decided:

For her family, who had never gotten a proper funeral, Akaritori would make a funeral pyre of Alaria.

As Akaritori wept, she pointed her sword towards the heavens and asked whatever gods there may be to grant her the strength to avenge her family, to avenge the innocent, and to punish the corrupt that had destroyed her home and her life. No gods answered, but the power that lay deep within her heard her earnest plea and with that power she burned all of Exae to ashes. The pathetic neatness of Exae was nothing before her rage and her grief.

From that day, Akaritori was broken. She was a corrupted shade of who she was, and she vowed only one thing:

Nobody else would suffer like she had. She would protect the innocent, and she would rip apart anybody or anything that attempted to stay her hand. She would seek out the "Keeper of Precepts" that the woman had mentioned for answers about why Exae had suffered - if she could not avenge them, she would learn why they had to die. The woman proved difficult to track down, initially, and Alaria held no more answers for its disgraced champion.

After so long searching, Akaritori gave up, unable to continue in her fruitless search. Of all of the Hidden Villages, Kumogakure spoke to her the most, for the injustice within was strong, and her strong emotions needed somewhere to be vented. For years she bided her time, publicly opposing the reign of the Raikage, until Windspeaker Touho came along - another person who cared for justice. The two formed a fast alliance, and before long completely overthrew the old regime.



【Chakra Nature(s)】

Yagamiton [Light Release]



【Other Specialties】
Akaritori is one of the most renowned practitioners of kenjutsu in the world, and is a true master of the skill.

Akaritori has exceptionally fine chakra control, having practiced it for many years.

Akaritori has larger than average chakra reserves, but not by much.

Akaritori’s skill with her Kekkei Genkai and its corresponding jutsu is masterful to the extreme.



【Weapons/Tools】
Name of Weapon or Item: Masayoshi, Saikōsai no Ken [Justice, Blade of the Supreme Court]
Owner: Akaritori
Rank: A

Description: A beautifully forged Katana whose blade is made of light rather than steel. By using Nyktian forging techniques from Akaritori’s birthplace, steel has been infused with so much Yagamiton chakra that it took the form of light rather than steel. Aside from this change, Masayoshi is not particularly more deadly than any other Katana, except for its legendary sharpness and its inability to be wielded by anybody other than Akaritori due to its composition.

Name of Weapon or Item: Kōha Megane [Lightwave Goggles]
Location: Over Akaritori’s eyes at all times.
Owner: Akaritori
Rank: A

Description: An advanced set of goggles designed to protect Akaritori’s eyes from the intense light that she wields. The lenses are tinted so that the light she commands does not blind her without hindering her own moves. The goggles have also been technologically modified to be able to sense heat using thermal vision, and they have a setting to detect the bouncing of light waves much like a geographical graph would display isobars, allowing her to truly detect most people despite their efforts to hide. These tinted goggles prevent all eye-based genjutsu that would work on Akaritori. The goggles have a powerful zoom function that allow Akaritori to view targets in focus from approximately a mile away.

Appearance: A set of white “binoculars” that constantly cover Akaritori’s eyes. The binoculars are made of a white plastic, with tinted black rectangles where her eyes are. They are not particularly thick, only about an inch, but she is never seen without them.

Akaritori carries apt supplies of traditional ninja tools.



【Kekkei Genkai】

Name of the Kekkei Genkai: Hokori no Exae [Pride of Exae]

Type of Kekkei Genkai: Yagamiton (Light Release)

Clan: N/A, Unique to Akaritori and several others born in Akaritori’s generation.

Rank: A-S

Description: The Hokori no Exae is an odd kekkei genkai offering the user access to a realm of supercharged and condensed light. This realm of light is not fully accessible to any user of the Hokori no Exae, but instead allows the users to “bleed” the light from it, infusing it into their bodies and creating areas suffused with large amounts of this light. This light has various properties, but as it is supercharged a small amount is very bright, often causing users of the technique to glow. The main ability of this light is that users of the Kagayaki are able to transfer the powerful light into other forms of energy - namely Kinetic energy, Heat energy and Electrical energy. The Hokori no Exae is typically manifested as a set of angelic wings, as is the case with Akaritori and has been known to give the user a Halo as well, which is often seen as an exertion of energy - like a second form of the Kekkei Genkai. The user is only able to access this realm of light via special seals, however, and if they wish to create an area of light they must clearly mark the area with seals.

Users of the Hokori no Exae find that they are much stronger than the average person, and, in fact, than most ninja due to the immense light energy running through their bodies that is converted to other energies, which passively trains their muscles as if they are constantly working out, and thus gives them incredible taijutsu ability.

Weakness: Requires seals to activate outside of the Yagami no Hagai.

Name of Jutsu: Yagami no Hagai [Wings of Light]
Rank: C
Range: Personal
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
User[s]: Akaritori
Element Affinity [If Applicable]: Yagamiton [Light Release]

Description: The Yagami no Hagai are a series of complex seal tattoos on Akaritori’s back that constantly draw light energy from the Kagayaki’s Realm of Light and bind it into 8 wings on her back. The wings are in two sets of four. Use of the wings is necessary for Akaritori’s light based attacks while not in the Kōyōkū. The wings naturally recharge over time, and require five seconds per wing to recharge. Only one wing may recharge at a time.

Name of Jutsu: Teiden Ken [Blackout Blade]
Rank: C
Range: Melee range
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu/Kenjutsu
User[s]: Akaritori
Element Affinity [If Applicable]: Yagamiton [Light Release]

Description: By converting a sum of Light Energy to kinetic energy quickly, Akaritori can remove all light within a ten foot sphere around her and convert it instantly to kinetic energy, giving her an extremely fast slash with her Katana that is difficult to avoid and carries a lot of strength. The slash is very difficult to avoid due to the fact the enemy, if they are in ten feet [which is highly likely] is unable to see for the duration of the slash. The light is constantly converted until the slash ends. The kinetic energy is also applied to Akaritori’s light-infused muscles, causing her to become much speedier for the duration of the slash. Requires two wings of the Yagami no Hagai, unless in the Kōyōkū. Additionally, Akaritori's speed is even greater in the Kōyōkū.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Jutsu: Hōsha Ken [Radiant Sword]
Rank: C
Range: 10 feet.
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
User[s]: Akaritori
Element Affinity [If Applicable]: Yagamiton [Light Release]

Description: Much like the Teiden Ken, except opposite. Akaritori channels energy through her Katana and floods an area of 10 feet diameter with light to blind and disorient her enemies, and then converts all of the light used to blind the victims into kinetic energy, creating an extremely fast slash with her Katana that is difficult to avoid and carries a lot of strength. The slash is very difficult to avoid due to the fact the enemy, if they are in ten meters [which is highly likely] is unable to see for the duration of the slash. The kinetic energy is also applied to Akaritori’s light-infused muscles, causing her to become much speedier for the duration of the slash. Expends two wings of the Yagami no Hagai initially, and another if Akaritori wishes to empower her slash.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Jutsu: Teiden Kyū [Blackout Sphere]
Rank: B
Range: 10 feet.
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu/Kenjutsu
User[s]: Akaritori
Element Affinity [If Applicable]: Yagamiton [Light Release]

Description: Much like the Hōsha Kyū, Akaritori creates a sphere of energy, but this sphere forces kinetic energy inwards and completely removes light from the area. Everything inside the sphere is pulled towards Akaritori’s central location but this is a one-time sharp “push”. Akaritori may also create a number of thrusts with her Katana by expending 10% of her chakra, instead focussing the “general” area of kinetic energy into a series of sharp series of thrusts that act much like extra blades. Requires two wings of the Yagami no Hagai, unless in the Kōyōkū.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Jutsu: Hōsha Kyū [Radiant Sphere]
Rank: B
Range: 10 feet
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu/Kenjutsu
User[s]: Akaritori
Element Affinity [If Applicable]: Yagamiton [Light Release]

Description: Akaritori converts the energy of two wings to a sphere of sheer kinetic force, and bolsters it with her chakra [5%] via the Katana. Immediately, everything within Hōsha Kyū is pushed back 10 feet [assuming it can be affected by kinetic energy]. The execution of this move is a circular slash with the diamond Katana, which instantly causes the move to be used. Requires two wings of the Yagami no Hagai, unless in the Kōyōkū.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Jutsu: Hōshaha no Kyūzō [Radiant Wave Surge]
Rank: A
Range: 45 feet.
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu/Kenjutsu
User[s]: Akaritori
Element Affinity [If Applicable]: Yagamiton [Light Release]

Description: Akaritori looses a cylinder of sheer light at the opponent, 10 feet in diameter. This cylinder of light is centered on her Katana, and upon reaching an enemy is converted into sheer heat energy. This is equivalent to one of the most powerful Katon techniques: Amaterasu in sheer heat, however, does not last nearly as long. For 10% of her chakra, Akaritori may also convert some of the energy to kinetic energy, slightly lessening the heat power of the technique but simultaneously causing it to knock back whatever it hits at least 25 feet. When used in the Kōyōkū, the blast radius is doubled and the kinetic impact is used without chakra. Uses three wings of the Yagami no Hagai.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Jutsu: Yagami no Yoroi [Light Release Armour]
Rank: A
Range: Personal
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
User[s]: Akaritori
Element Affinity [If Applicable]: Yagamiton [Light Release]

Description: By transferring energy from two of her eight Yagami no Hagai, Akaritori can use the light energy to create electrical energy within her nervous system like the Lightning Release Armour, empowering the synapses and generally the musculature of the body while it is active and surrounding the user in an ethereal creamy-white glow. The user’s reflexes and speed are empowered while using the Yagami no Yoroi, but get no defensive bonuses. Yagami no Yoroi does not use the wings, merely restricts the user from using them while the technique is active.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Jutsu: Shukuchi [Reduced Earth]
Rank: A
Range: Close Range - Up to 15ft.
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
User[s]: Akaritori
Element Affinity [If Applicable]: Yagamiton [Light Release]

Description: Akaritori expends two wings of the Yagami no Hagai to create a marker made of light anywhere within fifteen feet of her, and an identical mark beneath her current location. At any point within the next five seconds, Akaritori is able to instantly move to the first marker she created. For five seconds after that, she is able to return to the marker created at her initial position.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Jutsu: Asaborake no Shihō [Light of Dawn’s Justice]
Rank: A
Range: Medium - Long
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
User[s]: Akaritori
Element Affinity [If Applicable]: Yagamiton [Light Release]

Description: Akaritori coalesces the light of 6 wings of the Yagami no Hagai into a halo placed behind her back, and dashes forwards at a speed of 15 feet per second. She will strike the first physical object encountered (but can choose should she encounter multiple at once) and will consume the halo of light behind her, creating a massive blast of kinetic energy. The energy can strike from any direction, but it is always in the vague shape of a massive sword (and can be seen faintly as traces of light remain). The power of the strike is extremely high, and unprotected targets will almost definitely find themselves bisected.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Jutsu: Yagami no Kusari [Chains of Light]
Rank: A
Range: Close Range - Up to 10ft.
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
User[s]: Akaritori
Element Affinity [If Applicable]: Yagamiton [Light Release]

Description: By pooling light from the Kagayaki’s Realm of Light into a small area, Akaritori can convert it to kinetic energy perfectly matching any external output of kinetic energy that the victim[s] in the area make[s]. This renders them completely unable to move, but does not affect the internal use of kinetic energy e.g. the beating of the heart. This uses the Yagami no Hagai at a constant rate, sacrificing one wing for every three seconds she keeps the opponent still. In the Kōyōkū, this rate increases to six seconds per wing.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Jutsu: Chikaiki [Oathbreaker]
Rank: A
Range: 40 feet
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
User[s]: Akaritori
Element Affinity [If Applicable]: Yagamiton [Light Release]

Description: Akaritori suffuses the energy of four wings into her sword and plunges it into the ground. Immense cracks appear through the earth, seeping searing hot golden light, guided by Akaritori’s will. After a second, all of the cracks form, and the earth within a 40ft diameter circle is cracked and splintered, and then completely uprooted, sending shards of earth flying in every direction. There is a small circle around Akaritori in which the earth is not broken, and she is spared from harm. After two seconds, an explosion of light is created in the initial area that deals moderate damage to all enemies within.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Jutsu: Mayu o Nenshō [Burning Cocoon]
Rank: A
Range: Personal
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
User[s]: Akaritori
Element Affinity [If Applicable]: Yagamiton [Light Release]

Description: Akaritori converts the energy of one wing per three seconds into a blisteringly hot cocoon of light around her or around a target. The cocoon will expend its energy in order to repel attacks by opposing them with equal kinetic energy, and anybody who comes within five feet of the cocoon will be rapidly burned, getting third degree burns if they stay for more than two seconds. Akaritori or the target cannot move while in the Burning Cocoon, and enemies cannot be damaged by any of Akaritori’s jutsu or attacks.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Jutsu: Shikōsai [Arbiter Supremus]
Rank: S
Range: Personal
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
User[s]: Akaritori
Element Affinity [If Applicable]: Yagamiton [Light Release]

Description: Akaritori forfeits the use of the wings of light, taking them and a vast quantity of light energy into her body as a replacement. For the next two minutes, Akaritori’s assumes the form of an elemental, replacing her physical form with pure light, increasing the power of her techniques greatly but simultaneously removing her ability to use all of her previous techniques except Shukuchi and Asaborake no Shihō.

While ascended, Akaritori is immune to physical damage (from weapons and elemental ninjutsu, etc.), but is more vulnerable to techniques that disrupt chakra and such, and she is no longer gated by use of her wings of light. Her light-based techniques are roughly twice as damaging, and she is able to perform incredible feats of movement, such as being able to run on any solid surface due to her weightlessness. Akaritori’s speed increases dramatically in this form, but she is unable to deal physical damage of any kind.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Jutsu: Kawabe Kasō [Riverside Cremation]
Rank: A
Range: Variable
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
User[s]: Akaritori
Element Affinity [If Applicable]: Yagamiton [Light Release]

Description: Akaritori creates a sword identical to her own made of light and thrusts it into the ground. Over the course of ten seconds, the sword gathers energy and becomes increasingly volatile, until it explodes in a massive burst of burning light after ten seconds. At any point before this explosion, somebody can remove the sword from the ground, causing a smaller explosion proportionate to the amount of time it took to remove the sword from the ground. Up to four of these swords can be created at once, with a maximum of sixteen during her ascension. The minimum explosion radius is twenty feet. The maximum explosion radius is forty feet. The forty feet explosion is three times as powerful as the twenty feet explosion.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Jutsu: Gijin no Shisen [Gaze of the Righteous]
Rank: A
Range: Variable
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
User[s]: Akaritori
Element Affinity [If Applicable]: Yagamiton [Light Release]

Description: Akaritori ensnares all allies and enemies within a hundred feet of her, up to a maximum of twenty targets, with chains of light identical to the Kusari no Yagami. She can keep the targets bound for a maximum of thirty seconds, but not while they are within forty feet of a sword created by Kawabe Kasō.

If used on a single target, the technique changes to be more offensive, not only restraining their movement but exerting incredible pressure upon them that threatens to crush them if they are not physically strong enough to resist. The restraints in this version of the technique are less powerful, however, and can be broken with an extreme display of force.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Jutsu: Chōshinsei [Supernova]

Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
User[s]: Akaritori
Element Affinity [If Applicable]: Yagamiton [Light Release]

Description: Akaritori creates a small sun, ten feet in diameter, that blazes with intense light. If hit by a sufficient number of attacks, the sun will dissipate. If the sun has not dissipated after fifteen seconds, Akaritori’s maximum duration of her ascension is doubled, and half of that added on to her current time, and an explosion is released that heals all allies greatly.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

【Personality】

Yodai Touho, before her coronation as Windspeaker, was a troubled woman. Nights of dreamless sleeps and sleepless dreams wore at her confidence, at her faith in herself, until her soul was exposed to the elements that govern the realms of body and mind. For most, an exposed soul leads to trepidation, and to doubt, and eventually to the great sleep - but not for Touho. Touho persisted, despite her exposed soul, and faith brought her back from the darkest place she had ever been in. It has been said, all too often, that once you reach rock bottom there is only one way to go - up. From the depths of despair did Touho rise, opening herself fully and truly to Fuujin, and she prospered.

Windspeaker Touho was never particularly determined or passionate in her youth - days would sail by, and she would sail by with them, idly waiting for something exciting or interesting to happen to her. She had daydreams of fantastical adventures, of a higher purpose, and occasionally of what life could have been like if she had taken a different path. For one who dwells in the dark recesses of the idle mind, the light can become hard to bear, and so did Touho retreat further into the depths of imagination. For the longest time she was stuck there, waiting for something to bring her unrealistic dreams to fruition, until before she realised it she was living her life inside a dream, only waking when she retreated deep into slumber and imagination.

Truth is a light that reveals everything - for better or for worse - and for one so used to the darkness the truth can be unwelcome. The truth offers no comfort, only the harsh gaze of reality, and Touho was used to nothing but comfort for most of her younger life. When shown the path, confronted with the great light, it seems like the best thing to do is retreat, and retreat Touho did until she was back in the comfort of the dark. Change rarely comes easily, but despite her initial apprehension Touho soon begun to see sense, to see the illusions that she had wrapped herself in for what they were, and turned to the light with her exposed soul. The light changed her, not because she saw some grand truth and was stricken by epiphany, but because her very soul was exposed to the universal truth - and at that moment she truly began to believe.

After that, Touho had a life of purpose. She was a Windspeaker, one committed thoroughly to Fuujin, and she used her newfound faith to give herself purpose. She is dedicated to her path, and she knows full well that she cannot retreat into the dark like she did as a child. This inner strength has shown itself multiple times, allowing her to make decisions that weaker beings would falter at, and allowing her to live full well with the consequences of her actions. Perhaps it could be said that she has little appreciation for life or anything she does not deem holy; that may well be true, but it gives her the strength to do what she feels she must, and her convictions are true enough to justify her actions - at least, they are to her and to Fuujin.

Touho is polite, well-spoken, and above all else kind. She may not have suffered the awful fates of some, but she knows that only chance spared her from such things and she shows the compassion and mercy towards the broken and less fortunate people that she feels they deserve. She looks after the lessermost people under her care, and through everything cares for them as much as she cares for herself. Certain values are expected of those who claim to be closest to any deity, and Touho delivers fully on these expectations. She is not kind for fear of damnation, or for any corrupt reason, she is kind because she sees herself a hundred thousand times over whenever she looks at anybody less fortunate than herself, and she would never wish the fate of the less fortunate on anybody because she knows how close she was to becoming one of those people.

There are few truly good souls in the world. Most are marred by imperfection and sin, and even those that claim to be truly golden hide behind a thin veneer of hubris. Perhaps Windspeaker Touho is one of these truly good souls - or perhaps she is not. She does not know, and for the most part, she does not care. Windspeaker Touho burdens herself only with her god and with her people - and for her people, there is no decision so hard that she cannot make it. Brutality and lack of emotion may enter into her heart, for a time, if a situation demands it - but above all else she cares for her people. Everything she does is for their wellbeing, and for the prosperity of her god. If this does not make her a truly good soul, then she is not a truly good soul - and at the end of the day, she cares little for titles.



【History】

"Until Fuujin found me, all I knew was hunger. I hungered not only for food, but for purpose, for a reason to go on. Now I have found that reason - or, more accurately - that reason has found me." - Windspeaker Touho

The woman known as Windspeaker Touho started out life as an orphan, her father dead before her birth and her mother dead giving birth to her. In Shimogakure, this was not necessarily an uncommon fate. There were two major paths for an orphan in Shimogakure - to go to an orphanage, where you would be beated, mistreated, and probably dead within five years... Or to go to the Temple of Fuujin, to be raised as an acolyte, and to be given purpose. Few were given the luxury of the Temple's life, but Windspeaker Touho was chosen - it was said that there was a presence about her that made the priestesses think of Fuujin, and in that respect she was worthy to join the temple.

Touho's early life - or what she remembers of it - was a mixture of chores, scriptures, and more chores. Life was not easy, but every day she ate well and she was kept warm, which was not a feat that all of the inhabitants of Shimogakure could boast. She felt content with her simple life. Days rolled by and as soon as Touho reached the correct age, she was trained in the arts of the Ninja, that she might serve her new god better. At this point, Touho was an arrogant teenager, and she thought she knew everything. She began to doubt that Fuujin even existed, lost faith in the scriptures she had been taught, and rebelled against the system that had spared her from death.

One night, after a particularly intense day of training, Touho found herself at the altar to Fuujin, questioning why she had been put on this path. She must have made some noise, for the revered priestess heard her, and she came over to comfort the young Touho. She explained that Fuujin's winds crossed many paths, and that while the current state of affairs may have seemed bleak, it was just a point on the journey leading Touho to her absolute destination. All she could think was that the revered priestess was full of herself.

Over the years, Touho's training increased and she became increasingly adept at Fuujin's arts, and she began to see more and more how right the revered priestess was. She dedicated herself to Fuujin's cause entirely, opting to join the military ranks of the priesthood, and continued down the path that she was set on. It was the least she could do for the people that saved her from an otherwise horrible life. Around when Touho was nineteen, the invasion of Shimogakure began in order to cut Kumogakure off from the path of the Bijuu's destruction. The temple of Fuujin was left intact, and none inside were harmed, but Touho could not stand idly by while the rest of her townspeople suffered. She sought to repel the invasion, to single-handedly fight off the forces of an entire village, but she was quickly overwhelmed and taken as hostage.

Following brief negotiations, Touho was released back to the temple and Kumogakure took over the land of Frost entirely, beginning the construction of their wall and the assimilation of the land into the Land of Lightning. Touho hated her oppressors with all of her heart, and begged Fuujin for the power to take back their land, but her prayers fell on deaf ears. She resolved not to lose faith, to see that Fuujin wanted her to prove herself through her own merits, not through divine intervention, and to overthrow the oppression that had dawned upon her.

In Kumogakure proper, Touho met Akaritori, a foreign swordswoman who spoke for justice, and the two conspired to plan murder most foul. Akaritori, despite being a nonbeliever, understood Touho's convictions and helped her understand that justice was justice, regardless of whether or not it was in the name of a deity or within the name of a person. All that mattered was that past wrongdoings were rectified - and for once, Touho agreed. Thus began the coup of Kumogakure that was.

Since then, Touho installed an even larger temple to Fuujin in Yamagakure, and proclaimed herself Windspeaker, leader of the Military arm of the temple, and joint Kage with her close ally Akaritori.

Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: A
Range: Personal
Nature Type: Fuuton
Symbols of Fuujin: 1

Description: By channelling a constant sphere of wind chakra around herself, Windspeaker Touho is able to levitate as if held aloft by currents of wind. She gains a sphere of influence around herself with which she can manipulate wind in myriad ways. The sphere extends six feet from Windspeaker Touho in any given direction. While within the Megumi no Fuujin, Windspeaker Touho is immune to all friendly Fuuton techniques. Windspeaker Touho’s control over the wind is so proficient that she is able to essentially fly.

In addition, instead of performing handsigns, Windspeaker Touho is able to invoke symbols of Fuujin with simple movements that are not necessarily restricted to movement of the hands/arms.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Technique: Megumi no Fuujin: Kin'yoku no Michi [Grace of the Wind God: Path of the Ascetic]
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: C
Range: Within the Megumi no Fuujin
Nature Type: Fuuton
Symbols of Fuujin: 2

Description: Windspeaker Touho causes the boundaries of the Megumi no Fuujin to intensify greatly, causing it to deflect all physical objects or projectiles that come near it. By weaving currents of chakra through the wind, the sphere can also become impermeable to unfriendly chakra, but doing so requires intense focus that prevents the use of other techniques and movement.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: B
Range: Megumi no Fuujin
Nature Type: Fuuton
Symbols of Fuujin: 2

Description: Windspeaker Touho creates innumerable blades of wind invisible to the naked eye within the confines of the Megumi no Fuujin. The blades cannot leave the sphere, but are so sharp and numerous that almost anything that comes into sustained contact with them will suffer immense damage. The blades can be condensed into single, visible blades that can be launched outwards from the Megumi no Fuujin at a significant reduction in power. The blades are shaped like crescent arcs, and despite their relatively reduced firepower they move very quickly and are difficult to avoid.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: A

Nature Type: Fuuton
Symbols of Fuujin: 5

Description: Windspeaker Touho condenses the Megumi no Fuujin, removing all access to its abilities except its levitation and flight, and coats herself in a thick veneer of wind. All physical projectiles that would come into contact with the armour are deflected, and Windspeaker Touho’s speed is vastly increased. In addition, Windspeaker Touho’s taijutsu attacks become significantly more deadly, using the force of the wind surrounding her to lacerate the areas she hits subcutaneously. If she would hit an open wound, she is instead able to cause major damage to internal organs in the surrounding area.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Technique: Kaiko no Fuujin [Wind God’s Dismissal]
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: C

Nature Type: Fuuton
Symbols of Fuujin: 1

Description: Windspeaker Touho creates an incredible gust of wind in a single direction, buffeting anything it hits and sending them flying backwards.

While Windspeaker Touho is within the Megumi no Fuujin, she is unaffected by the technique unless she chooses to be.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Technique: Kamikaze no Fuujin: Ran’un [Wind God’s Divine Whirlwind: Storm Clouds]
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: C
Range: Long
Nature Type: Fuuton
Symbols of Fuujin: 3

Description: Windspeaker Touho gathers immense amounts of Fuuton chakra and unleashes the chakra in a constantly expanding sphere. The sphere will travel for fifty feet before dissipating, carrying any physical objects with insufficient mass or not rooted to the ground with it. As soon as the sphere dissipates, strong winds begin to gather in the area that disrupt movement and leave small lacerations in exposed skin.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Windspeaker Touho increases the intensity of the winds created by Ran’un, causing them to become strong enough to cause light cuts through leather armour and cut deeply into exposed flesh. The winds become strong enough that moving against their currents is nigh impossible without a significant amount of physical force, and the winds are so intense at the edges of the technique that physical objects may not enter or leave.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: C
Range: Long
Nature Type: Fuuton
Symbols of Fuujin: 12

Description: Kamikaze no Fuujin: Hayate cannot be used until Kamikaze no Fuujin: Arashi has been used.

Windspeaker Touho brings the winds to their most intense level, strong enough to uproot old trees with ease and severely damage plate armour. The area of the technique doubles, and Windspeaker Touho has complete control over the direction of the winds at all times. By focusing on specific areas, Windspeaker Touho is able to manipulate the air pressure in order to achieve various effects, and is able to sharpen the winds to create gusts with the same cutting power as the Wind Release Slash. While within this zone, none of Windspeaker Touho’s techniques require Symbols of Fuujin to be used.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: B
Range: Medium-Long
Nature Type: Fuuton

Over time, the sheer cold of the wind will begin to induce frostbite in exposed flesh. The prison can only be maintained while it is within two feet of the Megumi no Fuujin, after which it dissipates immediately.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: C
Range: Short - Mid
Nature Type: Fuuton/Hyouton
Symbols of Fuujin: 3

Description: Windspeaker Touho creates a gust of wind imbued with Hyouton chakra, resulting in a freezing cold gale that can freeze any water it comes into contact with. The gale is persistent and extremely easy to control, but it cannot leave a fifty foot radius of Windspeaker Touho. The wind is strong enough to knock projectiles off course.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Technique: Shidō tame Tangan [Plea for Guidance]
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: B
Range: Short - Mid
Nature Type: Fuuton/Hyouton
Symbols of Fuujin: 3

Description: Windspeaker Touho sends a freezing blast of extremely harsh wind in a direction and maintains her pose as she does so, prolonging the freezing wind for as long as she maintains the pose. The wind is so cold that ice begins to crystallise on all physical objects caught within it for more than a few seconds, and after four seconds caught in the wind the target is encased in a block of solid ice.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Technique: Tenno Shimo no Hairetsu [Heavenly Array of Frost]
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: B
Range: Short - Mid
Nature Type: Fuuton/Hyouton
Symbols of Fuujin: 1

Description: Windspeaker Touho unleashes a fast, expanding sphere of wind from herself, knocking back all enemies without sufficient mass. Additionally, the sphere leaves behind a thin veneer of frost chakra, causing any physical objects that pass through it to be coated in the chakra and frozen solid. Katon techniques that would pass through the chakra are immediately snuffed out if they are B-Ranked or lower.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Technique: Akishimo no Gishiki [Rite of Frostfall]
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: S
Range: Mid - Long
Nature Type: Fuuton/Hyouton
Symbols of Fuujin: 10

Description: Windspeaker Touho prepares a vast amount of Hyouton and Fuuton chakra, and unleashes an immense hailstorm in a three hundred foot radius around herself. The storm is so vicious and so cold that enemies with insufficient insulation will succumb to frostbite and hypothermia rapidly. The winds are not particularly strong, but if this technique and Kamikaze no Fuujin: Hayate are used simultaneously, the result is a storm so powerful that it threatens destruction on the scale of the Bijuu.

Weakness: Interpret it yourself.

Name of Technique: Totsuzen no Akishimo [Sudden Frostfall]
Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Rank: A
Range: Personal - Short
Nature Type: Hyouton

History

Yamagakure, formerly Kumogakure and its outlying lands, was formed when Hyakune, Ra and the priestess known as Windspeaker Touho took over Kumogakure in a Coup d'etat, backed heavily by the general populace. Around the time of the nine Bijuu roaming free, the former leader of Kumogakure heavily taxed and oppressed his people, claiming the funds and customs necessary to protect them from the threat that the Bijuu posed. Several members of the High Council saw through the ruse, but were executed for treason and the village was placed in a state of martial law. Ra and Windspeaker Touho led a rebellion around thirty three years into this oppressive regime, and have ruled ever since.

With the threat of the Bijuu eliminated, Yamagakure have slightly decreased their military presence - though only slightly - and have opened up new trading routes with Kirigakure and Kyokujitsugakure, and have begun to fortify their land after the acquisition of the Land of Frost.

Geographical Description

Yamagakure is an extremely difficult land to traverse, generally being somewhat mountainous, but most of the larger mountains are resigned to very specific areas - there are a set of three concentric rings of mountains in the center of the land, each of which acts as a natural barrier for the village in the centre, and beyond that there are many outcrops that hold rich mineral deposits. The land that is not taken over by mountains is fairly flat, with a slight incline towards the village. Yamagakure's land is strangely fertile due to the strange weather cycles and the leaching of minerals down from the mountains into the basins formed by the concentric rings of mountains, and there are rivers that run through each of the basins to supply it with water. Irrigation has improved upon the naturally occurring rivers and the humid climate allows crops to be grown easily, though due to the high mineral content of the soil there are only a select few crops that grow well - but those few crops that can be grown are grown extraordinarily well.

The areas outside the central basin are steeper than those within, and there are no mountains to offer shelter from the northern and southern winds, so agriculture is more difficult but the people of Yamagakure have perfected the art of farming the land they have, allowing them to feed their population comfortably, but not having much left over to export. The areas not turned into farmland are most often mines, with a vast quantity of exceptionally pure iron being Yamagakure's primary resource. There are strange currents of chakra that flow through the ground, said to be left by the ten-tailed beast long ago, that allow the metal that Yamagakure smiths to be easily imbued with elemental chakra, though it can also be imbued with other chakra easily to achieve potent effects.

Political Structure

Yamagakure's ruling body is comprised of the Kage, the Windspeaker, and the Beneficent Council. The Kage and Windspeaker each hold a higher percentage of votes than any member of the Beneficent Council, and have ultimate legislative authority, but the opinions of the Beneficent Council are highly regarded and are unlikely to be overturned without drastic cause.

The Beneficent Council is chosen by annual election, with three trials given to each prospective member - A trial of Warfare, a trial of Humility and a trial of Knowledge. Those that complete all three trials are offered the opportunity to become members of the Beneficent Council, and unlike most councils it has no set limit on members, though each additional member diminishes the quantity of votes each other member gets. After five years on the council, members can choose to resign or undertake a single trial again to prove themselves worthy of their place. the Beneficent Council is largely independent from the desires of the Kage and the Windspeaker, and always vote for the good of the people, which has led to an exceptionally content population.

The Military, under command of Windspeaker Touho, have some element of sway and can overrule the Beneficent Council in times of warfare, though it is very rare that the Beneficent Council's advice is ignored.

Religion

Windspeaker Touho and the military are fairly religious, and have taken to worship of the Bijuu sealed away in the shrines - though their religion focuses on the bijuu as aspects of Fūjin, the Wind God, and neglects to call them the Seishin. The religion focuses on asceticism and self-reflection, leading to Yamagakure's military being largely comprised of monks that try to keep the peace rather than enforce any real laws. Most members of Yamagakure consider themselves agnostic, but worship of Fūjin has been embedded into the culture and all of Yamagakure's holidays and festivals are in their name.

Economy

Yamagakure has a strong but not fantastic economy due to its vast amounts of high-quality exports and its abundance of certain crops. It imports some food, though not much, and does not import anything else. If ties to other villages were to be severed, Yamagakure would be able to survive as a standalone village for a long time, a claim that some villages are unable to make. Yamagakure's coffers are also extremely full due to the rich mineral deposits scattered around the land, one of the main components of which is gold.
