Biography
————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— ▸ History:Born just outside of Kusagakure to his Mercenary father, a member of the Takamori clan, while his mother was a traveling healer and herbalist. Due to niether being registered shinobi, they were able to travel freely without fear of persecution. That was, until an old enemy of his father tried and succeeded in poisoning the older Takamori. Despite all of his mother's efforts to treat the poison and ensure his survival, it was all for naught as he passed on shortly after Masae's first birthday. Fearing that he may be targeted next, she packed up the family of two and fled toward one of the other shinobi villages before finally settling in Amegakure no Sato.
Raised on stories of his father, the fantastic feats that he was capable of despite coming from a nomadic clan, the boy decided early on that he was going to become a shinobi. However the combination of his mother's disapproval of the lifestyle as well as the pressure to prove himself as a true citizen of Ame discouraged him. He was fairly close to abandoning his dream, until he learned about shinobi that chose to heal others instead of harm. Iryonin. That discover brought about a new dream, to become the world's greatest medic.
Upon enterting the academy, Masae focust almost all of his free time on Chakra control and learning everything he could about medicine and anatomy. Unfortunately this led to him neglecting his physical training, with the exception of shurikenjutsu. Despite this minor setback, Masae managed to graduate in the 38th percentile, comfortably above average in all aspects aside from taijutsu and physical endurance.
▸ Personality:✓ ObservantDue to his extensive study of anatomy and behavior, he has developed a habit of observing others and is decent at decifering their intentions. This has also helped his information retention causing him to be something of a human sponge in regards to medical knowledge.
✗ ParanoidHis habit of people watching has caused him to notice the rather jumpy nature of the older ninja and he has subconsciously mimicked this behaviour. He is very cautious in new situations and can become momentarily hostile if surprised.
✓ CunningWell aware of his own lack of physical strength, he has learned to used his head to succeed and use to environment to his advantage. He often uses his knowledge of anatomy to target nerve clusters or commonly unprotected areas such as the back of the legs to deal as much damage as possible.
✗ Self-ConsciousDue to his selfbimposed need to prove his worth to the village as an outsider, he often second guesses his own decisions and abilities.He is also terrible at accepting compliments, becoming easily flustered and embarrased.
✓ CompassionateMasae is a kind young man that often cares more for his friends and comrades more than himself. He believes that as we are all people, everyone deserves a chance. He does have a particular soft spot for small children and animals.
✗ Self-detrimentalHis desire to care for others often goes to the extreme, leading to a rather self-destructive mindset as he would sooner put himself in harms way than allow it to reach his comrades. This behaviour also extends to perfect strangers as well.
✓ HonestHe is adamant in the belief that lying puts unnecessary strain on the brain as well as being a rude thing to do. While he is aware that deception is a key tool for a shinobi, outside of missions or confrontation. He is some who can be trusted to always tell the truth.
✗ BluntDue to his mother's influence as well as his desire to be honest, Masae is a very straightforward individual who does not mince words. He can inadvertedly come across as rude but is apologetic if his plain language comes off as offensive.
▸ Dreams and hopes:x To surpass the legendary medic Senju Tsunade and her successor Haruno Sakura
x Becoming the head of the shinobi hospital
x Become the Jonin sensei to an all medic team
x Getting along with his team.
▸ Desires:x Recreating the Strength of a Hundred technique or something similar.
x Inspire more people to become Iryonin
x Prove to the village that he is more than an outsider.
x Learn more about poisons and their antidotes.
▸ Fears:x Losing a comrade in battle due to his own inability to heal them
x Never even reaching a level comparable to the Legendary Medics of Konohagakure.
x Not being of use to the village.
x Disappointing his team, especially his sensei.
▸ Motivations:Masae's primary motivation is the desire to never be in a similar situation as his mother was with his father. He wants to ensure the lives of his comrades and this has pushed him to become obsessive about his chakra control and medical knowledge. This single mindedness has caused him to be socially awkward at best as well as limiting his offensive capabilities.

▸ D-rank TechniquesSuiton: Suidan no JutsuSuiton: Doku AmeShindan no Jutsu - Diagnosis Technique
Gantai no Jutsu - Bandage Technique
Ninpo: Sansokyoukyuu - Oxygen Supply
Ketsueki Gyouko - Blood Coagulation
Kanetsu no Gyou - Heat Seeker
▸ E-rank TechniquesKawarimi no JutsuHenge no JutsuBunshin no JutsuNawanuke no Jutsu▸ Custom Jutsu:Shindan no Jutsu - Diagnosis Technique
▸ Rank:D
▸ Range:Short Range
▸ Description:The first step in treatment is understanding the problem. With this skill a shinobi uses their hands to carefully probe a patient for problems. This technique is preformed by kneeling over a patient and slowly running both hands over their body, looking for signs of injury that may not be visible to the naked eye. It can detect things such as internal injury, improper heart rate, non-apparent bone fractures, poisoning, and disease. A ninja of higher rank has learned to use this technique to perform a rudimentary examination of a body to determine cause and time of death. A Genin using this skill takes several minutes of work to determine the nature of a problem, a Chuunin takes less than a minute and a Jounin requires only a few seconds.
▸ Weaknesses:During use, the medic is basically a sitting duck. They are unable to protect themselves without first disengaging the jutsu.
Gantai no Jutsu - Bandage Technique
▸ Rank:D
▸ Range:Short Range
▸ Description:One of the first techniques that Medic Ninja must learn due to its utility. The user uses their chakra to change and element of their surroundings, such as grass, sand or water into bandages. These are primarily used for emergency triage if the medic is running low on actual bandages.
▸ Weaknesses:As the element is used to become bandages it does not aid much in healing apart from helping staunch wounds and prevent debris from entering the area.
Sansokyoukyuu - Oxygen Supply
▸ Rank:D
▸ Range:Short Range
▸ Description:By focusing chakra on the chest area, the user can aid breathing. The chakra helps the lungs expand easier by making the chest and neck muscles temporarily more efficient. This expands the airways and pulmonary blood vessels to increase oxygen intake on a cellular level. This is primarily used to treat smoke inhalation and minor breathing problems. Using more chakra the user can also remove liquids such as water or blood from the lungs.
▸ Weaknesses:Although the jutsu is used to clear the lungs and airways it has little to no affect on airborn poisons or irritation of the lungs caused by inflammed avioli or bronchi.
Ketsueki Gyouko - Blood Coagulation
▸ Rank:D
▸ Range:Short Range
▸ Description:The user concentrates their chakra on an open wound in order to speed up blood coagulation.
▸ Weaknesses:Since the jutsu only coagulates the blood of a wound, it does not really heal so much as staunch blood flow. However like all scabbed over wounds, stress on the area or too much movement can and will reopen the wound.
Kanetsu no Gyou - Heat seeker
▸ Rank:D
▸ Range:Short Range
▸ Description:Ninpo: Kanetsu no Gyou - Ninja Art: Heat Seeker
Rank: D
Description: The user focuses their chakra on the chest area, initiating an increase in body heat. This is used to treat hypothermia - the rapid decrease of body temperature that can cause paralysis, loss of limbs or death if left untreated. Alternately, by focusing chakra on the palm of the users hand, they can decrease the temperature surrounding their hand. Can be used as a mild fever reducer. (Cold compress)
▸ Weaknesses:Overuse can cause fever or shock if the body is warmed up too quickly.
Isonagi no Jutsu - Beach Crab Technique
▸ Rank:C
▸ Range:Mid-range
▸ Description:A jutsu that causes a pair of pincers to rise out of the ground/water and grasp the target by the ankles before pulling him underground/water. An important difference between this technique and Doton: Shinjuu Zanshu is that in this technique the target is fully enveloped in the earth or water. If strong enough, the target can break free, due to the loose earth. Water is less efficient because of its fluidity, and the target not held long. There is something to be said, though, for the change in momentum that can occur when you force an opponent to abandon all thoughts save survival.
▸ Weaknesses:This technique can only be used on water or atop loose soil (sand, non-rocky aerated dirt, etc,)
