SŌ MITSUHA [ -- ] name: Sō Mitsuha age: 17 gender: Female birthday: Januray 9th birth origin: Hi no Kuni birth village: Konohagakure no Sato rank: Adv. Genin clan: Sō position: Genin Team 1 alias(es):  Alias [English Translation] [Konohagakure no Sato] -- appearance Obvious Note: Mitsuha does not have the elven ears. Disregard. Appearance: 5' 5" (165cm) Weight: 130 lbs (58kg) Mitsuha is a shapely young woman coming finely into her adulthood with a fair complexion and piercing light green eyes, with a teardrop shaped face and sharp chin, sharp nose: and features which are delicately taken care of each morning to match with her daily routine. The woman is a almost dirty blonde complexion, short haired length which usually plaited hair to keep the hair from her face. Her skin, soft and free of blemishes and marks, and not often found without a full face of makeup including eyeliner and eye-based makeup. It carries across into other aspects of her femininity as well, loving floral based perfumes, or anything to keep an 'energy' in her skin. Otherwise speaking, she is still growing. While of a sizeable bust isn't likely to increase any more than it is necessary for her to develop a bad back, or put on or lose any further weight than she is currently in order to maintain a good (and healthy) figure for her age. A few noticeable features about her, is that one of her teeth are slightly long that when she smiles, a tooth can sometimes pop out from her mouth, or the tops of her gums being seen as indicative of a hearty smile for the youth she possesses. SHINOBI ATTIRE To fit her hourglass figure the woman is fond of contrasting colours to her blonde hair, and her favourite color is blue like the mid-day sky in summer. Though more often than not the woman is considerate of her Shinobi duties and wears clothing appropriate, form fitting and yet breathable in order to do what she needs to do on a daily basis. When not on duty, the woman prides herself on a civilian attire: and keeping up to date with in a fashionable manner. Whether traditional japanese in Yukatas, Kimonos, dresses and gowns: always loves her bright colours that can seem unpleasing to some eyes but is sure to draw attention, or darker colours that emphasis and paint a pretty picture with floral designs, which she loves. When it comes to her shinobi attire: it is generically a bluebody suit top or peplum top, and black trousers or leggings with wound pouches with bandages. Mitsuha still isn't afraid to shy from other things and while comfort is important for the longer journeys but sticks within these parameters for the most part unless otherwise specified. personality "Do good unto them, and good will come to you." Mitsuha is a golden child: with her good and bad traits like all people. Firstly, she is good natured and kind and intent on helping other people, sometimes at the behest of her own time even when she doesn't have it, and can sometimes cross over into being a pushover instead of putting her foot down when people try to take advantage of that kindness. Much more likely than others to part with her money to a homeless person or be swindled toward a venue for the purpose of scams. She is still strong of mind, in the sense that her morals are very important to her, as are fairness and integrity among Shinobi and people. Merciful in the sense she would try to not kill people if she can avoid it, but is fearsome if important things to her are threatened like her friends, her life, or an outstanding and immediate important task at hand. Otherwise, she can come across as being quite hesitant to act, taking more time than necessary to come to a decision which can hinder her, especially in times of duress. Still, for those personality traits it's easy to see Mitsuha as a pretty face with an empty head due to her kindness. But, she is still as intelligent as they come, enough to stand up for herself when it means the most, barring from some very select and specific criteria. Mitsuha is self critical and hard on herself, never really content with her work no matter how good of a job she does, and tends to worry on the unsolveable things than focusing on her successes. She is stable, supportive and sweet in a good way. In terms of negative traits, there are a few surprising ones that one can come across when you come underneath the layer of her personality. The first, is she can be an airhead. Sometimes to someone coming on to her, or about her duties across the day. The woman is crafty and vindictive, being that if you do actually somehow manage to cross her, she will absolutely go out of her way and to great lengths to inconvenience that person in the long run. It means that at times, she can be disobedient to get her way, if those criteria are met. And, for those people that can cross her, she is able to hold a grudge for a very long time, and is stubborn. While those above personality traits seem contrasting, being kind, being supportive or an airhead: she is strong of heart and morals, and feels when someone has wronged her, it's because something truly has been done to wrong her in the first place. She isn't wishy-washy, and is consistent in her behaviour to the best of her ability. Consistency: definition? Mitsuha.

Japanese Name [English Translation] [Who knows about it] description description

APPEARANCE

Height: 5^ft 1ⁱⁿ / 154^cm
Weight: 71^kg / 156^lbs

Hanabi is a young, tan, black haired young woman with a finely toned, muscular body at the behest of her intense work ethic. Hazel green orbs with flecks of gold in the light provide her with an intense stare when the opportunity arises. Long black hair adorns down toward her ass which is one of the few feminine qualities that she offers to have, a stark contrast against her hardier features of a small petite stub nose and sharp angular features, luckily her defined tan skin makes her black hair stand out all the better for it, while her hair is normally worn up in a bun, on the few occasions it is worn down her hair flurries around with the movements.

Her skin is full of tiny little cuts and scars notably around her hands and feet from their intense use, and her feet is probably the most scarred of all, little discolorations of paleness against her tan skin due to the absentee use of shoes. But otherwise, for the most part she's a fair frame and of decent height.

Attire:

Hanabi is usually dressed for battle. Simple clothing, free of movement and not tight as to stop her free range of movement, even avoiding boots or shoes if she can avoid it. Sometimes absolutely required by the nature of travelling terrain, she has grown stalwart in that respect. So, shirt: three quarter length trousers, and boots (if necessary.)

But, she prefers the use of bandages instead of shoes, feeling the earth beneath her feet. If she's not doing anything like missions, or training or instead doing something like volunteering she'll don a t-shirt and jeans, with bandages underneath. Even so, he colours are quite muted earthy colors with jeans, or a few more colourful ensembles for dresses.

In terms of femininity, she does not have a huge wardrobe of clothing. Dresses exist, but not normally on her. Much more of a "leather and boot" kind of gal, she dresses up when necessary, excluding completely formal events that do not require something to do with her god (which, is a single set of garments) and abhors the use of traditionalism like Yukatas, again, if they are not associated with her god.

PERSONALITY

"First I killed my parent's killer, and then I had no purpose. Sensō gave me purpose."

Hanabi is a hardass. Hard working, passionate, courageous: deadly, prideful, outspoken. Nobody could say that her work ethic is lacking but effort of supporting herself from such a young age, and by the effort of training herself as a workaholic now that she has been given purpose by her god.

The woman is Honorable, kind: merciful. It is in her interest that she volunteers and makes good on her promises to those who ask it of her, which is why she would vehemently decline a promise that she cannot keep. Hanabi is still a sexual individual, but few find it in their heart to match her intensity and sometimes tomboyish-ness, that she doesn't really try anymore in her heart to find love no matter where out there it is. Her devotion and piousness to her god is also a big factor in her life.

She fights to win. She fights for glory, and she fights for strength. Both in the sense of keeping herself mentally stable in a world of horror but to make it a better place with each and every fight. She does not use trickery, poison or any other cowardly art: but meets someone in the battlefield with an open heart, actively engaging on "confirming" they're in battle, and when it had been concluded.

That is to be said, the girl is mostly without fear. She had still feel it, as it would be irresponsible not to be. But, it is a defining factor in channelling it towards something positive as opposed to allowing it to control her. The world is her oyster, and she will make it so. Hanabi is still very forthight with her intentions and that can certainly come across as being unreasonable. If she doesn't want to be somewhere anymore, she'll just directly tell the person and walk off. If she doesn't want to do something, she'll make it clear. Not to be hard headed, but it makes her quite stalwart and stoic to a level.

Socialising is fun. Being out and around people is fun, but the woman also cherishes her alone time, dislikes those who intrude on her needlessly and especially on people who intrude on her personal space, perhaps being a little too quick to anger in that regard if she's approached by someone she doesn't want to be approached by.

Hanabi is not traditionally feminine. She takes care of herself, perhaps not to the extent that she lives off makeup, or relishes in wearing a feminine dress but has the option if it's of clear reason and desire to. She has less female friends than she would like personally but that's more down to her exact personality that can make it difficult for her to make friends of the same sex.

BIOGRAPHY

If Hanabi had an ordinary growth as a child, she would've ended up a nice happy child with her parents and would've grown to be a civilian: a woman who would eventually find a man, become a housewife, bare his child and continue her own bloodline. But, life does not work out that way, and in its place the story of an untold legend wormed its way into her very existence that threatens to make everybody else bow before her glory. Praise her name. Know Hanabi.

Hanabi was born on the edge of Hi no Kuni in border town: very close to Arashi no Kuni. Growing up in -10SD was fine: she was a baby and had no recollection of it. Her childhood was great and on track with nothing to push her off track. Two loving parents who gifted her with treasured memories that to this date she remembers though their faces have faded due to no memorabilia. No pictures: nothing to remember.

When Hanabi was six in -4SD her parents were murdered viciously while she watched from underneath a bed quiet and unable to fully and coherently understand what was going on. For what reason? What purpose? There was nil. But still, when the man's back was turned she used his own knife against him, pulled from her father's body and into the man's neck. Completely unaware of the damage it could cause, and by sheer luck killed the man.

The neighbours were the ones who heard it all, but hadn't thought to collect Hanabi or protect her, so all that was left was a little girl crying along the street as she tried to find help. In the coming weeks, people did: she ended up being taken care of in a different way. Moved into an orphanage. A decent upbringing, but not better than the world and the life she could've had. A girl who had seen death much before her time, an unfair world all the same.

The child's worldly belongings sold and liquidated and used for the good of the orphanage so they had a for profit business, keeping her alive long enough until they could get rid of her. She had already seen death.

It was at a later age that she saw Shinobi and questioned it, a further opportunity for her to grow and get beyond what she wanted. Vague, manipulative and led questioning by the people in charge saw her moved to Konohagakure no Sato to become a Shinobi in -2SD, under a guise of a choice that she herself wanted, so that she would not provide to be an economical drain - and something they managed to get her to decide "for herself."

So, off to Konohagakure no Sato she went, with all of her relevant paperwork to become a Shinobi of the Leaf. To gain a new education and put her skills to the test when it put her against the grain for her lack of use in the other arts.

It was here that she found proper, consistent training as well as the proper socialisation for her to get over the initial traumas of her as a child. She was okay in Ninjutsu and Genjutsu, and did averagely in her studies being studious enough to the art and willing enough to succeed with her goal kept in mind after all the years passed by. She passed out of the academy as a Genin at 13 in +3SD, going the full time and was never stronger or weaker than her classmates.

And then it all changed: the girl took on mission after mission with her team, always somehow managing to convince them to do missions near the boarders where Border Town was. Always somehow ending up back there, masked as the happy go lucky girl that she was. But, she had a goal in mind.

It was one fateful evening spent in her home town where she witnesses a devastating bloodbath between a Nukenin and Konohagakure shinobi: somehow succumbing and freezing of fright from the pure witness and devastation from the man, that she was like a deer in headlights having pissed herself when this man was done, unable to move even when he came toward her.

Pathetic, he called her. Sensō, was the words that passed from his lips. A jumbled question by her, for some reason, did he offer her guidance. He shared the words of Sensō, but saw no value in her to kill and so she was spared despite being what some would call an enemy. Her team was later on the scene with her still frozen - but she was a little more grown, a little more prepared.

The man's words were not lost on her, there was no glory in that fight, he said - she was weak, he said. Those words plagued her, and Hanabi wondered if she would ever meet her maker or her parent's killers at all. But whatever monstrous power that man had, she sought out. Textbooks vaguely mentioned it, conversations pulled up nothing. She never came across him again, until it clicked in the method and manner of which he spoke: it was not a thing but a who. A who, meant a God.

At fourteen in +4SD Hanabi found the god herself, Senso. Asking for a escort to their temple in Mizu no Kuni was a big ask, but they could not deny her on her religious reasons. She made the journey escorted and under the pretence of a religious pilgramige. She came across the temple, prayed: and found her god.

In a way, it clicked with her spirit in more ways than one, it matched her work ethic and her own desires. She cast away arts of chakra and focused on that of the body with no need to ever continue it further. What she had once been was a shadow and today the girl was stepping out of the shadow and into the light.

One day, she would meet that man again and kill him for murdering her kin.

FIGHTING STYLE

The key element of a lack of skill in the other arts plus her chosen religion forbidding her from the use of chakra has required her to operate under a very linear, simple method of fighting: which is attack, attack, attack. Stick to the opponent and make them crumble under her attacks. Because of her choice to focus purely in Taijutsu while relishing in the fight, the teenager relishes in the opportunity to fight in a bloodbath, but for the most part the woman is a merciful fighter in that she does it for the glory and she does not resolve herself to lower tactics of the element of surprise or underhanded ways of fighting.

For that, it is supposed that you could take advantage of this by the use of long range ninjutsu or genjutsu. Similarly, her close combat attitude is reflected by her propensity to get up and close and personal, even though she is limited by this factor she would rather punch and kick rather than grapple and grip, if not to just show her superior prowess.

SPECIAL ABILITIES

『BESERKER』

Though not fully actualised at her current rank the teenager is a follower of the Beserker (Sensō) religion. This has bestowed some abilities that will grow with her as she grows in her own personal strength and truth. It will later enhance her with the abilities of untold legends, including stacked against, fog of war and domain of war. Giving her unparalleled access to power of an offensive or defensive nature when the world is stacked against her, gaining a state of hyper awareness or to project a physical form of her own killing intent.

『STAMINA』

Being able to fight is no use if you fall short: being physical is an exhausting art, which is why Hanabi has trained relentlessly to go until she drops, both as a byproduct of her work ethic and by an unyielding exercise regime. For that reason, she works better against someone during a prolonged fight, and would sooner wear someone out than the latter.

Name: Yoi, Oda
Age: Sixteen
Gender: Male
Birthday: April 12th
Birth origin: Yukigakure no Sato
Birth village: Yukigakure no Sato
Military rank: Genin
Position: War Council

alias(es):

Sukoshi Ōsama [Little King] [Vilage]
One of the youngest in history to ever be granted the title of War Council, Oda's mind is sharp like the cold winds of Yuki no Kuni and more pleasant still for his young age.

Oda is well regarded in his village (so he believes) and is pragmatic, diplomatic and well deserving of the title, even if somewhat ostentatious as a title goes.

APPEARANCE

Height: 5ft 5ⁱⁿ / 165^cm
Weight: 60^kg / 132^lbs

Quite thin, reckless and pale: the Sun, or lack thereof has done a number on the young man, standing at five foot five inches and at his full height, he is also considered an adult by Yoi standards - a thinner frame, not quite muscular not quite toned, but not lacking in muscle fibres to do his work. His body is an anomaly that few people get the chance to ever experience or actually ever get to study, as it is the way of the Yoi clan that leaves many physiological and psychological changes to his body and mind.

For the most part, Oda comes across as a stubborn, stony faced squarely jawed teenager. Wide eyed, blank faced and stoic - when he smiles, can appear to be more forced than anything by showing too many teeth. His hair, unkempt and effectively left alone, but short enough so that it maintains that illusion or normalcy (and to help hide some of the scarring).

Oda's body is full of scars, primarily situated around his neck, back and spine due to the ongoing and extensive experimentation done by the Yoi clan, as is effectively their 'hijutsu' - not many people will come close enough to ever be able to tell, but those who do will see the endless amounts of needle pricks, cuts, incisions and scarring to be numerous.

Attire:

Oda's attire is quite plain, of blacks, navy, brown and beige: usually covered up quite strongly for his small frame and Yuki no Kuni's harsh winters. So, normally he'll be covered in multiple layers like a Parka, all the way down to gloves and a hat. In warmer climates or areas, he will usually enjoy the time by being dressed down in a tank top and whatever else suits him, but because travel is not normally in the books for him, this is not ever fully realised.

Being one of the few places that allow for individualism among the Yoi clan, Oda wears his headband as a part of a bandanna that covers the top of his head - and is in a red color, except for the silver plating. Yes, it stands out: that's the point. But if he's not wearing a bandanna, it will simply be another forehead protector - it comes down to both preference, availability and time allowed.

If it comes to more formal meetings, there is much less need to wear formal clothing in lieu of clothing that is warmer, so luckily for Oda it is not required to change all that much. Instead, he may be found wearing a trench coat and gloves - or something that is less... thick and woollen.

PERSONALITY

Oda is a warm young man, for whatever it is worth. Warm to the voice - a voice of reason and contentment in life, but not content enough to be lazy. In the times he is not warm, it is because he is quiet: and it is easier to say that Oda is of the quieter kind, because he says what he feels is pragmatic and beneficial to those who hear it, even if it may mean going against the grain.

Like his Yoi namesake, Oda always strives for perfectionism - essentially pragmatic in the development of himself and clinical in his own welfare to ensure his clan's survival (or contributing toward it) irrespective of what it means, or who he has to tread on to get it. Luckily, not a topic that he has to commonly cross in open battle or questioning of his morality. It is this clinical nature that has allowed Oda to thrive in the world.

To other people, people see Oda as being warm: but a façade of a voice, because behind his words and voice and intent is merely a human who has been so psychologically battered, it can make people quite unsure of who it is they are actually dealing with. In addition, his age can be a massive point of conjecture, as being able to have a voice of significant diplomatic power while being so young is new to Yukigakure no Sato.

Oda, in plainer terms of phrase: is oblivious to some social nuances, and all too aware of others. This sort of weaves itself as a pendulum of adult with experience, to child without life experience. It is something that is sure to get better, but as his way of life is so entrenched by the nature of his clan's participations, he can't help but be a big name in Yukigakure's way.

『Yoi "bloodline"』

A fully recognised adult of the Yoi clan as a "completed human" - Oda's voice bares as much recognition as the next. Oda has all of the merits of the known experiments of the Yoi clan, including:

While many boons are granted, like all other Yoi - Oda is an almost always "falling apart" state, requiring him to take medicine daily and bi monthly examinations to allow him to be adjusted as necessary.

『Bukijutsu Anomaly』

For the betterment of himself and his clan, Oda has learned to make best use of his boons and chose to pursue the art of Swordsmanship, primarily that of his striking speed in order to deliver extreme speed in his sword swings. This has manifested as a precision based, speed striking style with no loss of technique.

『I'm a plant』

Shimada could have looked much worse. Knowing what others in his clan can look like, from humanoid freaks to plant-looking extra-terrestrials, Shimada can sleep knowing he looks like other people.

His reserves are much higher in part because of his Kekkai Genkai - translating to a even greater life force that allows him to create fungi plant life, or to merge with biological (plant) matter. While merged, Shimada is invisible to most forms of sensory abilities (except sensor shinobi themselves).

Weight: 120^kg / 264^lbs

Sakki is a heavily built, muscular man: muscles, tattoos and scars alike. His body a testament of his will - rough, coarse and bundled together. Quite tall, overbearing and generally quite a large man. His characteristics are more different looking to other japanese people, coming from a very geographically different area: with a more rounded face and gaunt facial features and expressions. His hair is pulled back and knotted into varying braids: including the beard in front of him. While some may call it feminine, he would call it anything but, if he could understand them.

Though, he is proud in stature, with rounded boulder shoulders and big biceps, a full figure with thick thighs, and no unnecessary body fat in sight. Quite a marvel in itself. His eyes, though, are salty blue reminiscient of the sea he is from, colder in region than other areas.

Attire:

His attire is effectively clothing and rags: furs and browns from the animals he has skilled, skinned and taken care of himself. But, with the Shinobi world he has become more accustomed to its clothing and aside from the outer layers, he does feel more "fit in" with similarities in the clothing, from boots and pants to shirts. Otherwise, previously he'd have worn baggy inner clothes and many furs to keep him warm.

PERSONALITY

Nindo: "ይህንን ከተረጎሙ በእጅዎ ላይ ብዙ ትርፍ ጊዜ አለዎት"

Sakki is a man of few words: because that's exactly what it is. Sakki does not speak the traditional language native to the elemental nations. This is the forming foundation of his dynamics between him and all other people not from his homeland.

The man has to speak with his body so to speak. And for those who don't understand him, which is always, he comes across as brash, a dunderhead, a brute and loud. Overly confident: and all of these things are true. Sakki can say his own name, use very basic language, numbers - but the rest of it is literally foreign to him.

As a person, the man is ambitious, loud, though not in a language anyone can understand. A big drinker, happy and usually in good humour. Honorable and searching for a great death, Sakki does not bother himself with weaker prey. Flies get swatted when they bother him: but he does not seek out their deaths.

Even if others could understand him, Sakki is closer to being a man of grunts rather than words. A sexual man, one quite happy to come onto others male or female as long as they pose a good time. As a person, while honourable and merciful to the innocent is also definitively abrupt and inconsiderate. More concerned with himself: selfish, to a degree. It isn't quite enough that he knows he's a man, but it's that he needs everybody else to know he's a man as well. So, to expect great feats of drinking, strength, fighting or whichever it is, he wants his name to be known across the world.

BIOGRAPHY

Unlike many of the children of Shinobi villages who start young, from five and onwards: Sakki's journey, his families and his own kin, do not begin until much later. Though they live the lay of the land as hunter-gatherers like the time of old, they do not begin the thrum of battle, born in their blood until they turn thirteen. At which point, they skip forward, and become a man.

Sakki was brought up traditionally to his village, in a language he now finds himself unfamiliar with against a sea of new noise. Born of a fishery family, his specific job task, aside from his ancestral duties, was to sow the seeds of the land and bend a healthy stock of fish into the village's disposal.

Of course, to call it a village against the sprawling metropolis' that the Elemental Nations have, is a travesty. With no more than sixty people, it was a small place to live. Along the coast in Claw country, Sakki was a man destined to live his tasks, wake up, work, hunt, drink and sleep. When Sakki turned 15, where the lands had lay undisputed to them for hundreds of years prior, they had their war with another clan of people. A growing tension that had spilled over from the lost love of an arranged marriage and the desire of thralls to gain land: their village was a desired location.

Sakki had always been a little cantankerous in his teenager stage, and it had made for a bad hunting partner. So, unsurprisingly when it came to him having a hunting partner for humans, nobody wanted to work with him, lest they save their own skin. So he went at it himself. Senso had not yet found itself in his life, but it would not take very long until after some eight battles did Sakki have the most invasive, dream-like state where he found himself in wish of a god. Tales of dreams were always to be listened to, their ancient and preserved ways found wisdom in the most unlikely of places.

And that God spoke to him in that dream. And since then, he had been a disciple. While working for himself he grew stronger than he had even thought necessary. A leadership position offered itself to him, that he could've taken - and did. By twenty one, was already head de facto, after killing the current.

It seemed unusual that he, out of all people would seem so strong, almost inhuman, when the man had tried to ambush him prior to the fight's beginning in front of the crowd of people, and that was his first realised potential as he slaughtered these unworthy slabs of meat.

But, it was not true to him.

As he got older, he did grow calmer: more co-operative with other people, allowing them to have a harmonious life. Enough to lead, enough to do: but that became too much for the man, leadership was just boring. Leadership meant making decisions, and this young man wanted to experience life more. If he wanted to return later, then he would. But right now, he found better things to do and appointed someone else his successor.

A second dream came to the man in which he found himself to a temple. And he did: to one of the far strung aisles of Mizu no Kuni, where the Senso temple could be found. Obviously, this had been after some years of travelling to find his place, and he did. Sakki became thrifty. He had been but a fisherman before and hunter, doing odd jobs here and there. The further he came out, the less people spoke to him. The less people could understand him.

This was fine.

In Mizu no Kuni, he found his tattoos inscribed to his body, prayers and symbolism and ultimately, scripture of his God. He revered everything about Senso, but otherwise: it was him and him alone against the world. Having conquered everything he needed to in this life, to his own ambitions, he set off back home. The man had some short encounters with Shinobi but never drew blood with them. But, there was little other than him being apprehensive for talking to someone from a different language tended to do. Young and naive him for not beginning his warpath sooner.

And return home he did, back to a simpler life. Bored, boring and dull. There was nothing else to live for.

This did stay the same way for some years. He had begun his big break in his late twenties and from that point he did sire a few children, but beyond his own growing ambition did he stay around long enough for them to fend for themselves with a few different mothers. Between them, he had added seven children between the age of 8 and 10 before he left.

It had not been intended, though: conquering the world had become his dream. It had come to him in a third dream: he had been instructed that this was not going to be his end. That this would be his last dream. Whether or not it was actually Senso, that was an uncertain future. He could not tell: but either way, he would die on the battlefield. After years of looking out for other people, he was done himself. Risen to a level of power and blood that his hands had sown through the earth, in a local area.

When he awoke, he was out of his door within fifteen minutes. The new land could not wait.

FIGHTING STYLE

Sakki lives for the fight, the thrill of the battle and the boon of blood.

Sakki is a clunky fighter. By that, he's a fairly dynamic 'one and done' scenario that means: step 1) get close to a person and step 2) kill that person. How he achieves that generally varies battle by battle. So that's pretty much the 'style' - aggressive, hard hitting and uncompromising.

As a person for fighting while being uncompromising, he is not afraid to let it get difficult for himself, and strangely: loves fighting on the edge, with the battlefields against him. That being said, "Not running away" doesn't equate to "stand and be hit by a fireball" - Sakki has enough sense to keep himself from harm that allows him to evade mortal danger.

The man will still come back looking for more: and fights until a conclusion is drawn. If someone is stupid enough to put themselves between him and his path, then they will either die or live to remember their mistake of crossing his warpath.

SPECIAL ABILITIES

『Know your blood』

Sakki is a born acolyte of the Sensō religion, and as such gains relative abilities from them during the tides of battle. Unknown to the Shinobi lands, Sakki's full repertoire has never been unleashed in battle. Yet.

[/i]
[/ul]

[/blockquote]
『Know your place』

Sakki has much more to live for than the other points in his life, and lives more on the edge than other people do. While some weaklings live by their flaws and cowardice: Sakki knows what it is to lose: death. He cannot have that - not until he's ready. His killing intent is pure.

While already bad when intensified by his Religious abilities, Sakki's killing intent is more than pure: it is physical and real. Filling the air thick with a musk of pheromones and blood and war: while 'active', this physical presence is manifested, this aura is physical hard to even press against and reduces the speed of those around him.

『Know your way』

Sakki does not run: in a battle, just as Senso says: "There is no place on the battlefield for those who are not prepared to kill." Sakki is significantly faster against people who run from him. Those who do not fight head on, who are purely evasive and won't duke it out with him further enrage Sakki, making it easier for his immersion into fog of war and domain of war, reducing by a post per post of such actions.

『Know yourself』

Endurance is a key thing in battles, and Sakki does not lack any amount of it. Never having to rely on chakra and on his own body, his Taijutsu-stamina for fighting is uncompromising as well. Able to run and stay awake for days without tiring, he can be uncomfortable to fight against when throwing out everything you have.

『Know your mind』

While already impervious to certain types of Genjutsu in combat due to his religion, he has since learned the difficulty of Shinobi and their trickster ways. Because of this, he has committed to the fight and doubled down even harder, having no qualms to hurt himself to achieve his goal in winning. These types of people hugely enrage him for their use of false dreams, through the use of false gods. His ability to release Genjutsu through pain is increased by 1 rank.

PERSONALITY

Hanzo is a strong and bold personality characterised by great kindness and even deeper malice. He is not without his human element in the ability to show compassion and sympathy for other humans, only that with his ascension to his role left his empathy in the past. An incredibly misleading front.

Very much a 'two sides of the same coin' - Hanzo consists of the front and the back, the front is the Follower of Akui's fake religion, as well as his desire to bring others over. This is the man that will help an elderly woman across the street in his big, strong, carefully calloused and rough hands.

The back end of Hanzo is that he is utterly merciless - intent on bringing chaos, distress and decay to the places he visits, inflicting degradation and leaving a lasting impression. The same person who would stamp on kneecaps and kill family members to drive a point home. His religion has imprinted a relentless determination and brutality and is as a show of the internal turmoil that he faces daily.

His lack of fear toward death knowing that he will be revived has significantly bolstered his ego and confidence - since the likelihood of anyone ever bringing him to six would be slim at best. How do both sides of the coin interact with one another? Hopefully, folk who know him will only ever have seen the good: and only since his becoming a Shinobi and learning how to use his body has the dark whispers tangibly turned themselves into something darker. At his core, Hanzo is a good individual - but a deeply determined to fulfil his personal goals.

At the same time, a duty to his God to bring followers, and will use the appropriate moment to bring it up, using people's weakness and their troubled times to the wish of his Lord.

BIOGRAPHY

How did an old civilian become known to Akui?

How did he comprehend new tricks which had been previously known? A new life of danger and reckless abandon. These were questions unanswered by fate - because Hanzo had never anticipated or desired to become who he is today. Because who he is today is a shadow of his former and simple past. But that's how Akui presents themself. In small, dark whispers, in times of terror and heightened emotion and ultimately the key that led to the second arm of Akui - Fujinko Hanzo.

Hanzo's story is marked by bore: a job of manual labour, his big size always made him a contender to help out. There was also being Shinobi as well: but that never panned out as it had never caught his interest. But with minimal help and a problematic childhood that left him roughly emotionally unavailable -

The man will still come back looking for more: and fights until a conclusion is drawn. If someone is stupid enough to put themselves between him and his path, then they will either die or live to remember their mistake of crossing his warpath.

For that, it is supposed that you could take advantage of this by the use of long range ninjutsu or genjutsu. Similarly, his close combat attitude is reflected by his propensity to get up and close and personal, even though he is limited by this factor he would rather punch and kick rather than grapple and grip, if not to just show his superior prowess.

SPECIAL ABILITIES

『The Arm of God』

As a Herald of Akui - Hanzo was presented and blessed with an artificial heart comprised of the muscle and adrenal gland of his God. This grants him the gift of rebirth a total of six times (but not becoming immune to what has killed him) per thread.

Each rebirth enrages, and reenergises Hanzo: incrementally increasing his strength and speed to that his final reincarnation will make him a dastardly opponent to deal with, as well as nary running out of breath mid fight. This same 'life blood' that circulates through his body even produces steam with each breath, incrementally becoming more deadly to those around him.

Each death brings about a slight, subtle cosmetic change: lines running across his body and growing red hot by each death - to where at a final death would look akin to someone who had opened the gates - growing bigger in size after each death.

TETSUMAKI, YUZU

BASIC INFO

Age: 26
Gender: Female
Birthday: April 1st
Birth origin: Kaminari no Kuni
Birth village: Kumogakure no Sato
Clan: Tetsumaki
Military rank: Chūnin
Position: Raikage's Assistant
Alias(es):

Aoi Boruto [Blue Bolt] [Kumogakure no Sato]
The name comes from her use of her clan's technique as a Tetsumaki, because it's the last thing someone sees- blue hair before yellow lightning.

Height: 5 foot 8 in
Weight: 135 lbs

Yuzu is precisely the build you'd expect when you first look at her: tall, skinny, generally lacking in any sort of muscular mass but that is just the surface level interpretation, she does possess the tone needed of any sort of physical activity associated with Shinobi; offering a separation of muscle but in smooth curvature, as opposed to bulking, chiselled proportions. Adorning her lightly sheened, olive coloured skin is pale blue clouds: tattoos. Blue hair, bluer eyes: but that is the softest of the features that she offers a person. Yuzu is conventionally 'pretty' - asymmetrical features from a tear drop shaped face, a meticulously cultivated appearance is what's beneath the surface. Eyebrows plucked: a direct correlation to some of her more headstrong behaviours. That same behaviour is exerted when she growls, which certain lines adorn around her mouth - around her face and contorted into something utterly different. Her hair is an extension of her stubbornness: long, braided and ponytailed on two sides of her face and low enough to pass by her midrift - a single amount of hair amounting to a single bob on one side.

Yuzu does have some features which aren't as pretty: her skin, despite from a distance seeming smooth and asymmetrical can be somewhat dented or bumped: that's absolutely fine. Everybody has it - and nothing that she doesn't overcome with a good skin care routine. Like all Shinobi: there are lighter toned scars, little marks across her body. A particular scar is one that runs across the top of her breasts: one that she chose not to remove, running parallel to the collar bones of near equal length - a mark from her Genin days.

Yuzu's attire is proportionate to the high altitudes she lives in - with much warmer during other times of the year with furred clothing to cover her skinnier frame. The colours tends to variate between colours of darker purple, brown, beige and blue colours. Of course like many she boasts an extensive collection of various outfits - yet like most female shinobi, doesn't oft have a dress to exercise. If that ever does come to pass, it's usually mid-length skirts of floral and dragon based patterns.

In the warmer, summer months, it is not unsurprising to find the woman in much brighter patterns. Orange trimmed, black doting skirts in replacement: orange jumpsuit pants, wrapped around her waist and to have just a leather crop-top fitted around her chest area.

If you were to go on a mission with her, she'll dress depending on where they end up. Warmer areas? Less clothes. Colder areas? More clothes - not quite unlike the Shinobi who rely on a single or sparingly few sets of clothing they tend to abide by, though some bare usage as a Shinobi: she does not rely on clothing that others do.

MENTAL PROFILE

Likes: Sour sweets, heights, Shinobi-ing (that is, everything fast)
Hates: Sitting still, theatre, opera, high pitched ringing, the letter 'M'.
Drives & Goals: Yuzu wants to be the next great Raikage, to be the head of her clan one day, to have a sour sweet named after her, to visit Tsuchi no Kuni and compare the mountains from home.

General:

Yuzu in a few adjectives is: fiery, stubborn, headstrong. It is part and parcel with her being to be 110% devoted into something, that goes in her day to day life and it is done with high energy. It infers a lot of her interactions and she best works with people who are likeminded to her.

This also manifests itself as a playfulness: a trickster, pranking person that whom if not given appropriate tasks will find things to do. They more often than not will fall to someone else to satisfy, otherwise they can be difficult for her to focus.

Yuzu is a person that cannot be ignored for that reason: the same stubborn headstrong energy is also one of the people who will be the first to run to a frontline in protection of Kumogakure no Sato. A staunch defender and one to protect the ideology of her clansmen/women.

The is an element of being unhinged to Yuzu. Not entirely all there in the head, she can be screwed on: when things are to be done- but that won't stop her doing things in her way. She does maintain, and crave, individuality and expression above all else. In the setting of a military, that isn't so much fun - ergo some of her less attractive traits begin to shine out. Her close proximity to power both occupies her mind (a good thing) and makes those stunts that much worse (a bad thing).

On the other hand, a result of her high energy lifestyle means that nearing the end of her days she drops off in energy: becoming grumpy and irritable the later it gets into the day. While some people can "go" all times of the day, Yuzu simply cannot maintain it throughout all times. Provided she eats, she'll be "ok."

Part of the package in her ability to deal with many tasks when thrown into the deep end is fantastic: but at the same time can create a chaotic synergy of 'half fulfilled tasks' - or can be insensitive to those who are being party-poopers (in her eyes: not matching energy). She is emotive as a person for both the good and the bad, and not likely to hide her feelings behind a wall and is happy to bare them.

The relationships that she had with people tend to be quite active and dynamic: she needs somebody to engage with her, whether by her mind or by her body, those are the people she can get on with. There is opportunity to calm her down, but it usually means that the above factors need to be considered. It has been a barrier in past relationships, because it also carries across the same issue of 'energy' - it needs to match the dynamic, or balance it out, which has not yet been achieved with her.

CHARACTER HISTORY

Yuzu is and was always an interesting person, born in -19SD. Quite honestly: Yuzu's upbringing was not a by-product by abuse, because she was not. It was not by trauma: because it was not. Yuzu's upbringing and subsequently her personality was formed by the lack of attachment and solitary growth as a child. It was by two parents both shinobi and both of the Tetsumaki clan that expected a lot and provided little to her in her growing age. Both were war-torn shinobi, not too far from the end of the Third Shinobi War. From the moment she gained individuality, she had been left to her own devices.

Yuzu did not have a bad upbringing as such, but it was not an uncommon occurrence for her to be left with 'easy make' types of food: salads, instant foods. So, bouts of shame were flushed in her cheeks when she was told off for being left alone and making her own fun: raiding her mother's clothing cupboards, being told off intensely for it.

So, when the opportunity came that she was old enough to join the Shinobi academy it was an easy enough decision for her parents to make - it meant that they would be given free childcare, and a child from a clan that expected Shinobi to defend their village. They were a part of relative 'royalty' - being from a founding Kumogakure no Sato clan.

As it came to pass, the Shinobi Academy was the best decision that her parents could have ever made. It provided her with endless things to do and with it her abilities grew in leaps and bounds, and from joining the academy she found that their clan were able to produce quite amazing feats with their body: electricity. Being the age of seven and in the Shinobi academy, it was not surprising that during the Kumo-Shimo conflict their lessons were surprisingly lacklustre. It was a tumultuous time and for her, seeing children come in sometimes with their parents having died - she did not understand the intricacies of why things had happened, beyond what she learned at the academy. Like so many young children, they were kept out of it - not even old enough to participate as Academy Students.

That aside, her time at the academy was as long as every other's. She kept her head down because there were things to do. When there weren't: you'd hear about it. She had maintained that image of quiet perfection as a student, but outside her life and the classroom she was a bit of a terrible bothersome individual - lacking some of the remorse that made her a annoying person to be around.

She became a Genin in -7SD. While the world happened around her she became more familiar with her bloodline and taking advantage of other people's lack of understanding as to what it did. It matched her energy and for all of the lack of energy she had been given by her parents, she was able to ignore them and disrespect them as they had to her, she did not need them any more from age 13. That did lead to some very confrontational arguments as she grew up.

She became a Chunin in -3SD. Four years before the plague hit Kumogakure: nothing that had been specifically terrifying about her performance at the exams beyond 'passing' - had been thrust into a position of of great responsibility as a Chunin and leading the Genin and for once the smart ass was silent and stunned as the people around her fell like flies. Not that she would ever know what caused it and for a long time after it happened, even after it finished the damage had been done, irreperably to Kumogakure.

Yuzu didn't have the same family that she once had, she'd had relationships - faltering throughout the pandemic. But what a poor choice to have because of it - being in close proximity to other people? It really made the woman restrained. It was only from that point, that even when the plague had been lifted in +3SD that she kept her head down, and it wasn't roughly until two years after that had passed that some of her more exuberant features came back to return: during Kaminari no Kuni's specific war time, even albeit internal.

That hard work caught up to her and in +6SD she was invited to become the Raikage's assistant for reasons unbeknown to her. In spite of that loud and exuberant personality she was well liked by the council, well liked by other people even though she hadn't taken the opportunity (nor the care) to try and stretch for the Jonin role. Happy at home, happy in her life: busy with things to do. And that's what makes Yuzu tick.

COMBAT FILES

FIGHTING STYLE

Yuzu offers a pretty linear, frantic method of fighting: nintaijutsu. The close nature of her affinity means that she does need to be close: and means that she goes in fast and hard. Uusally closely: usually in tandem with her bloodline abilities. Yuzu is not a long ranged fighter by any means, though one day she will gain the abilities to do so: her preference is always to be at the front line, in protecting her people by maintaining 'offense is the best defence.'

The areas Yuzu excels in is her use of her bloodline ability and quickly using that to stun, and 'finish' enemies as she best can, avoiding the 'faff' and delivering precise, deadly, petrifying strikes where she can mow enemies down.

Yuzu is not as strong in Taijutsu as other folk are, but that doesn't stop her from meeting people in a fight - it just means she has to try and be creative. She is not the sort who will be evade, or tricksy in order to win a fight: not to say she won't dodge, but it's not her modus operandi as such. She also has little ability in Genjutsu; avoiding the use of illusions when she can just pummel and petrify individuals.

A member of the Tetsumaki clan it, is no surprise that she is the way she is. One with the lightning, it allows her to transform (partly, or whole) into lightning and is also able to transfer herself through conductive elements such as metal, earth and water without much after thought, though doing so for extended of periods of time becomes substantially difficult. It does lock her to the Raiton element, and makes her abilities susceptible especially to Futon based attacks in this form, but such boon is not without penalty.

➤ Rapid Circuitry

Yuzu can turn into lightning. Is lightning: acts like lightning and it is the sole element she knows. Those same techniques require less hand seals and cost marginally less. It is even to the point that from over use of her bloodline abilities, she can summon sparks to her fingers and lightly 'zap' people without so much as an iota of chakra.

Drives & Goals: Jin has no goals.

General:

"I don't need to be stronger. I don't need to be smarter: I just need to be the best. For a moment."

As a person Jin is complicated. A SHUKAN operative, devoting his life to mostly killing has made him an externally callous individual.

For the near adult who feels he lacks humanity, Jin values humanity and prizes it as an object to maintain and be desired. In his day to day life it means he has a great deal of envy for those around him, while not necessarily partaking in their misery - though empathetic to other people's needs he is able to compartmentalise his work and deliver suffering succinctly.

Because of that empathy and reverence to humanity he does do things in quite methodical ways. Jin is somewhat ritualistic in following routines in his day or certain customs, bowing before a fight even to an enemy. Wiping his eyebrows with his index and middle finger outward when they're sweaty in a specific way.(Or whatever i choose it to be) Jin can be very focused on his work, or helping other people. His lacking in sometimes common sense means that It means that he does not have much humour in his day to day life and some people may find him a bit dry for their tastes as a serious individual.

It is not to say that he is always like this, or had been: but has built a wall in his mind around anybody else and has never been comfortably vulnerable since his being a Shinobi. It's precisely what he wants, to be able to laugh and throw his worries to the wind, but with a sufficiently sized stick up his ass he remains an avid scarecrow screwed to the floor - as opposed to reaching the metaphorical clouds in his desire to ascend there.

Similarly, it's despite how serious he can be - Jin has no goals. No reason for existence and stuck in a limbo, which is why he'd made no significant effort to change anything about his life. Not implicitly terrible, but just troubled, as all Shinobi tend to be in some way or another.

CHARACTER HISTORY

- Seeming "loser"

- SHUKAN

- Life after/during SHUKAN

Jin's existence is marred by being unimpressive: but that's because everything "fun" about him is not public information. Everything after the academy near enough a secret, he had been an unimpressive individual his entire life, and not someone who was noteworthy - no friends, fewer family. His bloodline was not "cool" it was Funghi and such after all.

So, a part of the ancient Bonchi no Kuni branch of Gure is why he has been so ritualistic: the branch that saw to it that the best option from a cultural and tradition point of view is that they remained as close to the jungle as possible, so dense and wild with life. Because of his clan's rich nomadic heritage when they did start to change of all the places they saw it fit to be was the area that best preserved their lifestyle and as such, was where Jin ended up. Irrespective of how they had all come there, they prided above keeping the Gure name alive more than anything. It was this family that Jin ended up in.

Jin has over twenty siblings. He has roughly eighty near and immediate cousins: and when you have numbers like that it is extremely hard to stand out. With those express tenets in their lives Jin never had to worry about any of the tenets: though he would have to keep it in mind, his mother kept popping them out with such fervour that he would never had the collective burden when there were more... die hard siblings. The oldest was in their fourties: his parents were already in their fifties themselves when they had Jin.

So, big family, less sole responsibility and less shared responsibility. It was measured. It did mean that during his growing up he was brought up by some of his older siblings (who were in their adult - early twenties) timeframe. The much older ones were already gone out, or living in separate places. Doing their own separate thing.

So when Jin joined the academy as one of the many others, there were siblings that tried their hardest to stand out: and call it confidence, or somethign else - Jin did not feel the desire to as much. When it was expected that they were to join the Shinobi academy he did it without question - had never expressed a great interest in much, because at its heart Jin was lost among the crowds of his own family.

Because of Jin's age and being born in -10SD, and Takigakure not being in any significant conflict the only character building exercise that took place was when the civil unrest in Iwagakure took place and people were taking sides. Not so violent as was being caused in Iwagakure's lands but Jin's young age meant that he had taken to a spectator sport of watching the adults argue about the politics of it all.

But that aside, his academy career continued. When there was so many people, Jin felt as though he didn't have his own identity but rather than fight and make an issue of it like some of his other siblings, he did not. It made them somewhat a target, and especially Jin who was just... not that great a Shinobi. His academics were average, his ninjutsu beyond the clan techniques were ordinary and his clan techniques were not impressive when every single one of his siblings could do it as well.




---


So there it was, the thing he could do well and independently: killing, it was a strange occurrence to be able to share but not one that he could openly brag about. So, Jin didn't. But this time, someone else had noticed as well.

Lord of Kusagakure Application Character Idea/Outline Junichi Sozin is a character that is characterised by extreme punctuality, some moderate turbulence in recent time but a history of relative boring stability. Satori Akira, one of the two arms of God is even in his plight, an opponent few people would survive with his ability to regenerate, to become stronger, faster, and unending endurance while continuing an onslaught against - though in recent months has wavered; has a plan for change which few people would choose not to go for. Character's and Nation's History It is clear, from recent history that Junichi Sozin might've not been the best candidate for the contender as Lord of Kusagakure. But, with their name being thrown in and discussed - it seemed to make more sense than not. As a Council Member, the man had tenure - he had extreme punctuality: but not seen as often in the battlefield or one representative of 'Kusagakure's Strongest' which is why he had been overlooked so many times. Kusagakure's Land is one of turbulence. It is one of errant and lackadaisical leadership since Futago Raimaa was leader - and even then, she had failed and scrambled ever since. With capable leaders running out - Hisakawa Yamato was a fit choice despite their rank and initiatives and strong beauracratic nature. But where Leadership changed, Sozin remained a Council Member, ever stable. In recent history, where Satori Akira was revived into the body of Junichi Sozin who is no more, had recently had an upheaval in terms of memory. While there were some flaws in his history and memory, the facade remains to be pierced except by those in the cult of Akui. Akira, under the guise of his stable position in the Council made his case to them: the Harbinger, saw reason in it to and sent both the Tongue of God, and the Brain of God to help Akira in his mission. Both individuals were seen and used for their ability to manipulate and coerce, with Akira's help found audience with the people they should not ordinarily have had access to. Armed with the boons of their God designed to subvert the people. More importantly, they focused on those closest to the Daimyo outside of the village as well as inside: for their opinion, would hold great weight. One by one, they began to manipulate and coerce and change the opinion that Sozin was the one destined for leadership. Sozin was the one destined for greatness. Sozin was the one who could unite the poeple under the Daimyo's banner. Sozin was the one who could see it through as a Stable leader. Even though there were better placed individuals - Hono Chisai, a clear, honorable, loyal Jonin Hancho. Kameki Izumi, 'The Unseen' for their combat ability but with no face to a name. Internally, while Akira waited for the Tongue and the Brain to work externally: he worked internally to leverage his "new" position to chummy up to the people who could sway the vote, using his own dark whispers to play the field. So, whether or not it mattered how true it was or not, whether Sozin's history mattered or not, or his personal combat record came into effect: a lie spread enough and spoken too frequently had become true, and Sozin was chosen, because he was the one to lead and the only real candidate. Plans for the Nation As Lord of Kusagakure, there would be three to four distinct routes (independent and coexistent of one another) that would be happening. I would use this to entice activity and new characters to Kusagakure, which is one of the quieter nations to roleplay in. i. Religiosity The main aim of this plot is to get the church of Akui, and the Religion, set here 1. Mission sets on establishing the Akui's "false" religion in Kusagakure no Sato. Including the creation of a new church in the heart of Kusagakure, introduction of the Kusagakure learning cirriculum to include theism, and the heart of Akui being made here. 2. Convincing the Daimyo and the Hohei to be on board with this piousness as the new Lord of Kusagakure, also most importantly, was Higuchi Tsuya on board as he dedciates his 'loyalty' to them, creating festivals ran by Nakehara Ichi to the Daimyo and lavishly praising the Daimyo. ii. Diplomacy As a small country, matters of allies are important business with looking war on the horizon at all times. To maintain its competitiveness, renewed allies need to be made. 1. Offers being made to all allied nations, to open their own embassy outside the village directly. These embassies would be stocked with their own Shinobi, allowing more trade, and more importantly: more defensively positioned Shinobi not Kusagakure's own to keep them safe. 2. Doing a quick 'run' of each of the villages, for the new Lord to profess his pledge of Loyalty to them. An opportunity for renewed trade, and: 3. Discussions with Hi no Kuni (Konohagakure) to EXPAND Kusagakure's territory in exchange for free labour and exporting of the land they trade. This plot has been explored with the current Hokage of Konohagakure and it is something they would be willing to look in to doing. iii. Readiness and Preparedness Kusagakure is a flatlands, that is no doubt! Just because it is flat and easy to march on, as prior history has in the past - doesn't mean it needs to be for the future. 1. New mission sets relating to the storage and long-term production of goods, creating, then moving large storage underground in preparation for hard times. This would mean the difference between starvation and not if a war were to break out. 2. Trying to exchange a trade deal for a yearned substance: Promethium. A defensive tool for jungle grass warfare in strategic positions that are not used by civilians, but could be used by enemy platoons in the event of an attack. This is a plot or facet that has been explored with the current Kazekage of Sunagakure and it is something they would be willing to look in to doing. If this is successful, will have another mission set to implement them across Nohara no Kuni Interest in the Position I think this should be considered because wherein it relates to Akira, I have activity over the eight~ years I've been on site and never had a leadership role. This is a character I can play, and can offer endless plots to other people for. I have grown to be more cognizant of my actions and how they affect other people, and I want to choose to affect them positively. As a Leader, I can actively set the course for the future with Kusagakure, in new and inventive ways: perhaps eclectic, but never boring. Because Akira is evil(TM), I want to show that there can be good in the bad, and there is more to tyranny than 'murderhobo go brrr' The idea above set in motion is extremely different to other plots I think that have taken place. It includes "real change" on a local level without being too game breaking to the rest of the players in areas of N:FB. I have liaised with the respective Hokage and Kazekage about specific site plots that can be done, as well as the aforementioned points above that can be done to boost Kusagakure's activity. I can actively work with people on these plots, adding to the lore, creating new apps, new events and I believe I'm ready to be a leader of a Nation on NFB.

1st Letter

"

[googlefont="Istok+Web"][googlefont="Open+Sans+Condensed:300"]

It had been a few days since the coronation in front of all of his new servants. But - in the time that followed, was silence. While the people waited for the first official statement from Sozin, one would not come. For a few weeks, nobody but the core leadership had met and spoken with Sozin - until one morning, a letter had been delivered to each individual inside Kusagakure no Sato, and single notices to the other outposts to be disseminated accordingly.

In it, was a simple letter of a single page: printed in its hundreds and thousands, and each marked with the same symbol that usually denoted a message from their Lord.

"To: All Citizens of Nohara no Kuni

You may all have wondered why I have taken so many weeks to address this nation. I apologise. I wanted this to be delivered as my first official correspondance, to deliver decisive leadership and renew an unwavering loyalty to our Daimyo, and our allies.

It is with great sadness we wave goodbye to Hisakawa Yamato-dono, and with it I hope you all take a moment to reflect on the more stable leadership he had personally overseen.

To characterise this mark of new leadership, I offer my sincerest god-given will to each and every one of you. It is with my hope that we eliminate the blight and bring prosperity to this great nation.

On prosperity, I assure you I will work tirelessly to improve everyone's lives - to reduce impoverishness and shine the light of our lord to create peace.

Peace is something that is not ordinarily associated with a ninja village. I fully assure you, it can be - because peace is not arbitrary or ordinal. I, alongside with my council offer you freedom under our Daimyo's banner.

It is with a heavy heart that I inform you that not everybody sees Nohara no Kuni as the haven it ought to be - for the free. To that end, it is this mark of leadership in my first letter to you that I confirm that criminals who act against our land, and diminishes our Daimyo's richness is a criminal will be treated as an obstacle in obstruction of peace. As a personal affront to our Damiyo, they should become aware that it will become punishable by death.

I shall see to it that the Daimyo's authority is not challenged and I take that burden unto myself as he who upholds the law be the one that swings the sword."

- Junichi Sozin
Lord of Kusagakure

In one fell swoop, he had set the tone for his leadership: he would be able to disguise his activities in his true desire in servitude to Akui, and be applauded for it as "loyalty" to their Daimyo.

Oh, this would be fantastic. Sat inside Kusagakure's main office building.

Akira set out to work.

Quixotic of GS
