General Information
Age:21
Gender: Male
Physical Features: Disciplined in both body and mind as a young boy Gene's physical appearance reflects that of an athlete, a martial artist to be more specific. His muscles are solid and stature firm though he only stands at about five foot & seven inches.
Picture:
Personality: While seldom being found among social scenarios due to the nature of his work, on the rare occurrence that he appears publicly Gene may best be described as Taciturn. His presence is best comparable to that of an immovable mountain or perhaps, the mythical dragons of old. For he cannot be provoked or compelled toward any one emotion easily though many have tried. Observant by nature, his eyes and ears drink in all as if to be driven by child like fascination - striving to learn that which can be learned and then to understand and apply that knowledge. Whether due to his Strict adherence to the Shinobi ethos or a deep rooted need to enrich his own knowledge, Gene has adapted an entirely pragmatic way of thinking though is not above an occasional theory if it is grounded in logic. Known to discuss tactics and other such practical strategies with those who have earned his trust, Gene is considered a strategist by many. However, because of this method of processing things - he has developed a character flaw of not being able to understand things not dealing in logic or some kind of reasonable foundation; emotional matters and moments of weakness due to emotional distress are foreign concepts to him, often leading to disagreements among some of his more liberal peers and superiors.
Despite this, he is fiercely loyal to those who have earned his respect and trust and especially to the village suggesting that his will of fire may be no different than those who he argues with.

Gender: Male
Physical Features: Disciplined in both body and mind as a young boy Gene's physical appearance reflects that of an athlete, a martial artist to be more specific. His muscles are solid and stature firm though he only stands at about five foot & seven inches.
- Face/head: Gene's face is characterized as being what one might call "perfect" in the sense that there are no discernible deformities in the skull structure. While it is said that he is relatively good looking there are few who have actually seen his face due to the fact that he has taken to wearing a black mask that covers the lower half of his face (mouth, cheeks, lower jaw and nose up to the bridge) at all times when in public save for moments where he needs to eat.
Moreover, an unintended consequence of donning the mask is that his eyes tend stand out due to their unnatural and vibrant color. Gene's eyes are of an Auburn hue that when combined with his many eyebrow movements or lack thereof, offer a variety of different tones to his expressions. - Body: Gene's body is riddled with various scars from training and numerous close encounters with particularly skilled opponents. One scar in particular, a healed acid burn on his stomach, is the largest of and most notable representation of this. His left hand(back) also has a healed scar both in the middle of his thumb and where the ring finger and pinky connect leading to the outer section of his hand where he was cut open by a Kunai knife, A fact that has led to him wearing gloves when out and about.
- Notable Features:Aside from his eyes the most noticeable feature about Gene would have to be his hair. Whether bound back with his Forehead protector or allowed to breath naturally, Gene's hair is often wildly styled which is made even more notable due to the fact that his hair color typically ranges from almost completely white to a healthy silver.
Outfit selectionShow
Outfit #1:Beginning from top to bottom, Gene sports a white scarf that is wrapped securely around his neck - in active mission scenarios the scarf acts as a means to shield his identity as well as protect him from the elements(weather). Crafted of the finest materials of the region and tempered to sustain abuse, the Scarf isn't just a fashion accessory and its value to Gene extends beyond the surface; one of few artifacts left by his late mother before her passing he almost never take it off (save to wash it etc). Gene also wears a lightly-armored light grey flak vest that does not seem to have any noticeable pockets or pouches of which to place items. However, near the shoulders and around the chest cavity area the padding is 3 1/2 inches thick providing extra protection against weaponry(30 durability). If he were to remove the Flak vest for any reason then the long sleeved black carbon fiber thermal sweat shirt designed to keep him warm in colder temperatures, cool in hotter climates, dry in wet environments and comfortable overall. Despite being a simple shirt in appearance, the fabric is tempered quite well and provides 20 durability and some resistance to abuse.
Steel plated Wrist Guards: Found on either wrist, Gene has taken to wearing a black carbon fiber band with steel plating designed into the material in order to protect his wrists. Each plate is double layered and shaped in such a way that pointed weapons would be more prone to glide off its surface as opposed to ripping through you know - flesh. Built for protection, the wrist guards have a durability of 30 each.
Below the Torso Gene sports black Hakama pants composed of roughly the same material as the thermal undershirt but with slightly thicker composition. Custom tailored to him by the finest craftsmen(and women) in the family, efficiency and comfort are two concepts that were nailed in their conception. Just six inches below the knee, the pants legs are wrapped tightly by white bandages and secured so that the risk of being caught on something, tripping, making noise, etc. etc. Is completely minimized to moot.
Footwear: Unlike the standard sandals found in Hi no Kuni, Gene's are noticeably different in that there is a quarter of an inch thick layer of protection around the base of the foot protecting where the major arteries and veins of the foot would be. There is also tremendous support around the ankle lessening the chance of sprains,fractures and so forth by way of accidental improper limb placement.
Outfit #2:A "modified" variant of outfit #1, Gene still wears the black Hakama pants and long sleeved black undershirt from the first outfit. However, he no longer wears the flak vest substituting it instead for a brownish-green long sleeved shirt that is kept closed by a white sash (obi), essentially completing what would be considered a Gi style dress as the Hakama are still wrapped and bound at the upper calf down in a traditional fashion. Affixed to his upper shoulder down to the end of his bicep are an array of plated metal guards which offer similar protection as his wrist guards and besides the wrist guards seems to be the only variant of protection that Gene wears with this uniform.
Worn over his shirt Gene sports a deep sea blue sleeveless high collared haori which remains open in the front in addition to a same colored blue scarf that is tied around his neck in substitute of the white one worn in outfit #1.

Despite this, he is fiercely loyal to those who have earned his respect and trust and especially to the village suggesting that his will of fire may be no different than those who he argues with.
- General: Generally speaking, Gene is fairly easy going. He abides by the core principles of his profession and as such, there are few things able to really get under his skin. However, that's not to say he doesn't have his limits; those who disrespect his will of fire, comrades or generally the things that he cares about will find themselves on his bad side much quicker than than they think.
It's tough to discern exactly what he's thinking & as such, many people remark that it's difficult to understand exactly the kind of person that Gene is and therefore tend to be uncomfortable around him as he can be "unpredictable" though those fortunate enough to really befriend Gene will find that he is both kind and empathetic, willing to go above and beyond to help them out. However, he is both a realist and a minimalist at heart which are two traits that don't always align with the interests of others; specifically those who would prefer one extreme over the other without any real consideration of the possible implications, those who are swayed by emotions and those prone to going against what makes sense. In short, Gene could be considered practical at his best and outright defiant at his worst. - Hopes/Dreams: Gene dreams of bringing those who have wronged the village and who would continue to bring about calamity to the world, to justice. Whether that be by imprisoning them or exterminating them by way of capital punishment. Additionally, in regard to lesser criminals specifically, Gene wishes to implement a reform system where small crimes may be pardoned in exchange for life time service to the country. In recent years he has come to realize that all who abandon the village have not lost their way but are simply lost for the moment - lacking in guidance. While not naive enough to believe that his dream will change the life and circumstance or punishment of every fugitive, he believes that those who allow themselves to be helped can be.
Aside from the goals of his ninja career, Gene hopes one day to become a best selling Author. Traveling around the world bringing joy and unity with his art rather than meeting the populace with cold steel and iron. - Fears: Gene's fear is one that many who've chosen the path of a Shinobi have considered; the notion of having to bare arms against any who he'd once considered friend or an ally because it was his mission, or perhaps losing his own ninja way and becoming a slave to the evil forces that naturally work to balance the good in his heart.
- Combat Mentality: In recent time Gene has developed himself to the point of being able to contest with the best and worst of adversaries on most any field of battle. Trained in most weaponry and hand to hand, he may go blow for blow with the most skilled of Taijutsu practitioners while giving many ninjutsu experts a run for their money. Adequate in the art of Genjutsu; by his own admission, the Jounin would prefer to avoid run ins with those so proficient as to be referred to as specialists in the art. Capable enough to free himself should the need arise, Gene is not yet a formidable Genjutsu user and favors the swift battle where such tactics cannot be used against him.

Greaves of FortuneShow
Ankan's Greaves:These shin guards of black steel have been famed throughout history for their use by the great monk Minkai and have found their place rightfully on Gene's Shin's in addition to his standard outfits. The greaves are rumored to have been created by a great evil, due to their torturous effect. Each time the greaves touch a person's flesh, it breaks it down and dissolves it like an acid. This process is extremely painful, and will burn away an inch of flesh each post/brief touch that the contact occurs over. This will also melt away bone. The burns are measured off the opponents strength, those with less than 25 strength receive 2 degree of burn per contact (2nd degree burn on 1st contact, 4th degree on second contact), while those with 25+ strength receive 1 degree of burn per contact.

First Ability: KyokuganShow ![]() The adaptive insight of the doujutsu has a secondary effect of allowing the user to recognize fingerprints and footprints, and recollect them with extreme accuracy, able to remember any finger/footprint they've seen in the past, drastically improving the tracking capabilities of the wielder. The doujutsu can be identified by its distinctive blood red appearance as patterns and strange monolithic like symbols swirl around the pupil and three bar like lines that intersect where the pupil rests in the eye. Prolonged usage of the Kyokugan is strenuous and requires a high level of endurance. The maximum operating time a user can utilize their Kyokugan at a time is equal to their Control stat divided by 4 rounded down, to a minimum of one post. Upon reaching the max duration, the stress of using their Kyokugan to it’s limit causes a cool-down period of 1/2 of the duration time, to a minimum of one post. During this cooldown period, the Kyokugan cannot be activated and attempting to do so will cause physical pain. Duration is based off total posts where the Kyokugan is activated, meaning users can turn it on and off to have a shorter cooldown. | |

History
Gene's story so farShow
Born to a regular family within Hi no Kuni and corresponding village, Konohagakure no Sato; Gene had a relatively simple upbringing due to the fact that for better or worse, his parents were great Shinobi. Unfortunately he hadn't exactly shared their enthusiasm about becoming a ninja and would have much rather spent his time daydreaming or watching birds fly by - but, as with a lot of things in life sometimes you had to make sacrifices. Gene's "Sacrifices" started when he was only about five and his father more than anyone else in the family, began pushing Gene toward working for a future. Not for the family but rather for himself seeing as how one day the lad would be out on his own fending for himself. Now it was pretty evident that such an outcome wouldn't be for a long ways down the line but - the old man did have a point. And boy did Gene hate it when his old man made sense...there just wasn't any real way around it.
So with that goal in mind, Gene, his father, mother, and Grandparents all embarked on a long road to shaping the lad up for future life as a ninja. Training and studying on top of a strict diet and bedtimes - what wasn't to like ? Day in and day out it'd been about the same stuff over and over until the lad had come to discover that he'd actually been retaining the information - no really, it was crazy. Somewhere between the lectures and pointless (in his mind) exercises all this stuff had been beginning to make sense...and then, it got a little fun. By the time he'd hit the age of six Gene had been pretty much groomed for the academy and all it had to offer plus a little bit more. Sadly, he had other plans in store for the school.
Each day had pretty much gone how he'd imagined. They showed up, did a bit of talking and then the lectures began. By the time noon had hit Gene was ready to throw himself through a window and make for the nearest river to go dump himself - but of course, that wouldn't have made his family proud nor would it have been wise in his case. So like a sponge to water, he soaked up what he could and tried to slip in the occasional nap during those cumbersome lectures where possible; though usually the Chunin instructor caught wind of it and well, let's just say Gene had several rude awakenings. Despite the shenanigans his grades never dropped below a B in any given subject but the instructors could tell early on that he wasn't going to be the stand-out type. In comparison to some of his classmates who made it their personal goal to outshine everybody in everything, Gene only wanted to do just enough to both pass and keep his parents off his back. This would continue throughout his Academy experience up until the age of eleven where he'd briefly met Taiga.
Admittedly, during the final year of the program Gene buckled down and hit the books - hard. He wanted to at least have an educational advantage over some of the more gung-ho of the bunch by the time of graduation though ultimately, he figured out (with the help of watching his father around the house) that the brain was the most important tool that any ninja could have. It didn't matter how fancy your Shuriken technique looked if you weren't smart enough to recognize that the target being aimed at was nothing more than a decoy. That said, Gene's test scores and overall mindset reflected that of a tactician early on but the lack of drive to do much of anything continued to be the problem. In the end? He'd just barely managed to graduate.
Kept under wraps for his own benefit, Gene hadn't mentioned the fact that his Grandparents taught him how to control his chakra and mold it into an elemental affinity. It was for the best considering that if his overzealous mother found out there'd be quite a bit of a commotion. Fresh out of the Academy and lacking in any real significant backstory, Gene would seek to make his mark in the village in a different way. But first, he'd have to prove that he was a worthy Genin first. With average skills and some standard Shinobi training combined with an easily above average mindset, his road in end of itself already looked like it'd be something crazy.
Three years have past & since then, Gene has developed his mind, body & spirit into a more mature version of his former self. Tearing free of the shell that had once confined him he has forged ahead valiantly forming new bonds and friendships all throughout the village. From times of great unrest during an unexpected invasion to the current era of relative peace in its aftermath, Gene has proven himself a worthy Shinobi time and time again. What had once started off as an absurd moniker is now known to ring bells in the Hidden Leaf Village: Gene the Absent one, once a inexperienced Genin, now an esteemed Chunin of the village & member of Mamorinuku - Konoha's first response unit. With his comrades at his side, Gene continues to impress & has since vowed to bring those who brought destruction to his home land to justice.
"Tragedy after tragedy" seems to be the best way to describe life after promotion for Gene. From spoiled friendships to dealing with the loss of loved ones; the boy's senesce experience has opened a new door for him, one that has withered away at his old innocence and put in its place a hardened and bitter outlook on his chosen profession. Rarely found among the old Genin circle of his graduating class Gene has taken more to the higher ups in preparation for the next level; assignments with a greater risk factor than average, less time around the village & eventually a promotion even if it were just for the name sake. All in all, more than anything in the world, more than his title as a ninja, even more than perhaps the village of Konoha, Gene's journey to find himself has officially begun.
Those who did not know before of the Cloud Gazer , now hear tales of his exploits throughout Fire country as Gene continues to leave his mark by doing what it is that he does best - helping others. From being a hired bodyguard to infiltrating behind enemy lines and everything in between, Gene seems to be the go-to guy for just about any challenging task one can think of. Recognizing this, those of the council as well as the Head Shinobi in charge saw fit to promote Gene even higher up the ranking chain - but not without some apprehension. Despite his ability to adapt seamlessly in any situation and incredible reserve of knowledge, the one consistent problem in Gene's file seems to be his unwillingness to deviate from exactly what is expected of a Shinobi. For those who could not understand his drive and reasoning behind adhering to the rules Gene was considered difficult to work with and many refused to take assignments where he were selected as a member of the team. More importantly, many had spoken out against him being considered for a promotion in light of his unwillingness to deviate from protocol. However, the benefits to having someone infinitely familiar with protocol far outweighed the drawbacks and so Gene was eventually promoted (after a three year time skip) to special Jounin. Aged in body and mind, The Cloud Gazer has set his sets his sights on ANBU.
In just under a year after being promoted to Specialist Gene has achieved the unthinkable, becoming the youngest Shinobi in Konoha's ninja history to not only rise to the rank of Buntaicho within the Anbu Black ops organization but to succeed its former superior as the supreme Commander of the Anbu Black ops. A merit not to be taken lightly by any account and certainly earned through the young man's ability to combat and overcome seemingly insurmountable odds ranging from giant spirit creatures; a legendary serpentine monster & a great ferocious Dragon creature, guarding several high profile targets, assisting in the restoration of Whirlpool country to its former glory alongside Fanho, Takeo and many others and even facing off against the Juunanadaime Hokage himself who'd all but served as one of the founding members of ANBU in the organization's transformation from ROOT. Proving himself worthy in mind, body and soul Gene has assumed command of perhaps the most powerful and deadly force that Konoha has to offer, second in Authority to only the Hokage.
With the organization under his command, Gene now intends to bolster Konoha's swift response divisions and increase the spectrum of which Anbu maintain's influence.
So with that goal in mind, Gene, his father, mother, and Grandparents all embarked on a long road to shaping the lad up for future life as a ninja.
