To Make a Man Larger than LifeFeb 7, 2024 14:03:09 GMT -5
  Evil Doesn't Die; It Changes Shape. Amidst the towering stacks of paperwork that cluttered her desk, a white-haired kunoichi found herself grappling with a familiar sense of monotony. The endless reports, requisition forms, and diplomatic missives stretched out before her like an unending labyrinth, each document demanding her attention with its own unique set of bureaucratic intricacies. As she painstakingly reviewed yet another set of legislative records, the teal-hatted kunoichi couldn't help but feel a wave of restlessness wash over her. The tedious task of sifting through numbers and figures seemed to sap her energy, leaving her yearning for the excitement of the field and the adrenaline of combat. With a heavy sigh, she pushed aside the latest report and leaned back in her chair, her gaze drifting idly towards the window. Outside, the bustling streets of Takigakure carried on with their daily rhythm, oblivious to the tedium that gripped their leader. In that moment, Kuni longed for the freedom of movement, the thrill of adventure, and the camaraderie of her fellow shinobi. The call of duty beckoned her beyond the confines of her office, reminding her that there was more to leading Takigakure than just paperwork and administrative duties. Kunikunosaku decided to stop working on paperwork for the day and just walk around. She would then realize she should check in on a group of shinobi-in-training. After all, they were aspects that extended beyond the individual development of shinobi. She understood that the village's strength lay in its people's collective abilities. With this in mind, she saw the evaluation of academy students as not just an opportunity to identify potential candidates for her assisted training program, but also as a means to strengthen the village as a whole. By nurturing the talents of the next generation, Kunikunosaku aimed to build a foundation of excellence within Takigakure. She believed that by investing in the training and development of young shinobi, the village would grow stronger, more resilient, and better prepared to face the challenges that lay ahead. Through her rigorous training program, she sought to instill not only technical skills but also values such as discipline, teamwork, and unwavering determination. By fostering a culture of excellence and camaraderie among its shinobi, Kunikunosaku aimed to forge Takigakure into a formidable force within the shinobi world. Her vision was clear: to build a village where every shinobi had the opportunity to reach their full potential, where strength was measured not just by individual prowess but by the unity and solidarity of its people. With each recruit selected for her program, Kunikunosaku took another step toward realizing this vision and securing the future of Takigakure. TEMPbyAi ♥ SA(S) USED:
Jiongu | Earth Grudge Fear After having to recycle the roots that ended up killing the previous Apprentice just to transfer Jiongu to Kunikunosaku, the mass of black roots recollects most of its abilities from the Apprentice previous while forming new ones with its new master/host, Kunikunosaku. As far as the roots are concerned, like any organism, it desires to feed and survive, all else is not required, nor necessary to function. As for the Symbiotic Relationship benefits Kunikunosaku can control the thread-like roots however she wishes. The thread are quite versatile, acting much like surgical threads they can be used to sew up wounds stretch, or harden for attacks akin to squid tentacles, as well as being equally flexible and significantly dexterous. In time, Kunikunosaku will learn that as long as they keep a heart attached to at least some of the roots making up her body at all times, she is functionally immortal, only dying once all the threads are completely removed from any living hearts, and is unable to be poisoned. Because all of her vital organs and their corresponding systems are gone, Kunikunosaku has no need to breathe, eat, or sleep. The roots are sufficiently maintained by storing hearts that are pumping and living, in turn drawing sustenance from them. These roots also allow Kunikunosaku to utilize the inherent nature of any hearts she adds to their body, allowing them to perform jutsu of that element as if it was their natural affinity. Symbiotic Relationship: Mutualism After gaining knowledge on how Jiongu behaves and acts, Kunikunosaku developed a strong bond with the Jiongu entity. Accepting both live in her now; that both are what makes up Kunikunosaku. As a result of this understanding and bond, Jiongu aids her in combat - despite being a small boost. When conditions are met, Jiongu can provide an aided strength boost to Kunikunosaku during combat. It is still relative to her natural strength at the time. While this has no speed benefits, this boost of strength can put her up to par with the max strength of her peers at the same rank level. As she matures and gains new skills and new statuses. So too does her strength grow. Symbiotic Bond: Strong Mind, Strong Body As Kunikunosaku developed a stronger relationship with Jiongu, the creature bestowed Kunikunosaku an additional gift. That which is bestowed grants her the body as strong as her will. As long as she has the will to fight and keep pushing forward, Kunikunosaku has attained a sense of a strong body. She can still feel all the pain she receives, however, her will will push through it; literally making her body push through the pain and maintain functionality despite the egregious wounds she may receive. Overwhelming pain at one time or other will breaking input can debilitate the girl's will-driven tolerance to falter to the degree of an average shinobi, opening her up to common pain. It is this will that allows her to force the tendrils/roots/threads to repair themselves from injury or stitch back together. This will increases with her skill as she becomes more confident and driven to satiate both her needs and Jiongu's. Power of a God: After a great time learning how to control Jiongu, Kunikunosaku has learned to store chakra in each of her threads so long as they continue to be attached to at least one of her hearts. This extra storage capacity allows the girl to amass greater amounts of chakra within herself, expanding her reserves beyond that of the normal shinobi her rank. As with many other abilities, this ability continues to grow as the girl does through the ranks and years. Cursed Master: As a reward for attaining a greater deal of control over her symbiotic relationship with Jiongu, Kunikunosaku acquired the keys to the gate of mastering her abilities. This new boon allows Kunikunosaku to double the impact of her EGF ninjutsu. In addition, a passive boon is the ability to completely negate Jiongu's manipulation to consume more hearts. These boons together allow Kuni to further manipulate Jiongu against its basic natures, improving her unique utilization. While still young and unrefined, the ability is expected to grow as their bond deepens to even further levels. Medical Knowledge: Being from Takigakure's prestigious clan medical clan, Kunikunosaku is also set to learn the human anatomy, biology, and Kinesthetics, While this knowledge DOES NOT give her access to Medical Ninjutsu Techniques, however, the knowledge does unlock abilities of precision to the human body with every attack. This knowledge grants field combat medic aid but nowhere near the degree of those actually trained in it. JUTSU(S) USED: N/A EQUIPMENT USED: 01 | Ikari to Hisan (Continuous) |
