Fukusha, Hanzou

[Texas]

Fukusha Hanzou

I know that. What else have you got for me?

---

General Information Age: 18
Birthday: April 20th
Gender: Male
Height: 6' 1"
Weight: 170 lbs.
Physical Features:

• Face/head: Hanzou's features are very clasically Fukusha, with dark eyes and coal-black hair. He wears his hair slightly long on top and a little shorter on the sides, but all slicked back out of his face. His sharply angled jawline, strong chin, and wide mouth (usually twisted into a mocking grin) aren't what you would call clasically handsome, but come together to make a unconventionally good-looking young man.
• Body: Hanzou is a tall and skinny youth. He rarely stands up straight, which makes him look shorter than he is. While his limbs are quite thin, they do display some wiry muscle.
• Notable Features: A large tattoo of a salamander snaking its way around his right forearm

Clothing/Accessories: Hanzou tends to wear a lot of black. His usual mission outfit is a tight-fitting black turtleneck, slim cargo pants, boots, and a baggy black bomber jacket with a white fur collar. He usually wears his forehead protector loosely around his neck. He tends to paint his nails in shades of dark red or purple, and is a fan of jewelry. His fingers are rarely without a ring or two, and each of his ears sport several silver piercings.

Personality:

• General: In short, Hanzou is a clever, charming jerk. Like most Fukusha, he is quite intelligent, but somewhat unusually for his clan he is a relatively gregarious, outgoing person. That said, he's not clasically friendly: he is frequently prickly, ascerbic, and sarcastic, and loves nothing more than making a joke at someone else's expense. While he is very intelligent, he thinks he's about five times smarter than he is and is also quite lazy, not wanting to apply himself to things he thinks are below him. Hanzou says what is on his mind, and will loudly announce his complaints and how little he cares about things around him. Despite his abrasive, nihlistic attitude, he's not as far gone as his surface would suggest. Hanzou is the kind of person to mock his friends mercilessly but always show up for them, or to complain about his younger relatives but make sure he sets a good example for them. Hanzou pays a lot of attention to how he looks.
• Hopes/Dreams: Hanzou is extremely driven to climb the ranks as a shinobi and prove the mettle and loyalty of his clan. He thinks he would make a good Tsuchikage, but isn't about to go around blabbing about that.
• Fears: Stagnating on his journey to the top. Being shown up as not as intelligent as he thinks he is. Big things that live in the ocean.
• Combat Mentality: Hanzou is a long-range fighter. He prefers to let others do the up close fighting while he stays farther back, analyzing the battlefield, hitting his enemies with long-range Genjutsu and Ninjutsu, and mirroring their jutsu back at them.

Concentrations
Ninjutsu	Katon Affinity A character with this concentration is able to utilize Katon, and can make and use any custom or archived jutsu that require the Katon affinity. Katon has a passive ignition effect. Passive (Ignition)Show Katon's effect is ignition, which means that all katon jutsu, regardless of effect, start and spread fire from their source. Once a jutsu has been performed, the fire from the jutsu spreads at 1/3rd the speed of the technique, rounded down. That means a C-rank katon jutsu that moves at 13 speed would create subsequent fires that spread at 4 speed. These secondary fires require flammable material to continuously spread, otherwise they will burn out on their own. Additionally, Katon jutsu have a Burning effect, and burn anyone they come in contact with with [Control] strength. Doton Affinity A character with this concentration is able to utilize Doton, and can make and use any custom or archived jutsu that require the doton affinity. Doton has a passive enduring effect. Passive (Enduring)Show Doton has a passive effect of Endurance, which means that it's power is retained throughout the entirety of the jutsu. All of a single doton jutsu retains the strength of the jutsu, even after the jutsu has been destroyed, and unlike other jutsu, doton does not fade when destroyed. This means that if a doton barrier with 25 strength is cut in half and falls to the ground, a part of that barrier could be picked up and carried as a hand held shield which would still have 25 strength, despite being a fractured part of a jutsu. This creates incredibly potent defenses, making doton a popular affinity among defensive fighters. Kouton Affinity A character with this concentration is able to utilize Kouton, and advanced form of Doton, and can make and use any custom or archived jutsu that require the Kouton affinity. Kouton has an resisting effect. Passive (Resisting)Show Kouton has a resisting effect. This means that Kouton jutsu ignore the effects of other affinities, regardless of their nature. If a Kouton spear was thrown through a water shield, the spear would not be caught by the shield, nor would it be destroyed by Sankaton, or cut by Fuuton. This resisting effect does not apply to active effects by jutsu. This means a fuuton jutsu that cuts with 30 strength would still cut through a 20 strength kouton shield, but it would not be affected by the secondary cutting by Fuuton. This makes Kouton very effective for breaking through and penetrating defenses that opponents expect to protect them. It's hardy nature makes Kouton very popular amoung Doton users. Kuuton Affinity A character with this concentration is able to utilize Kuuton, and advanced form of Fuuton, and can make and use any custom or archived jutsu that require the Kuuton affinity. Kuuton has a gravitational effect. These gravitational pockets can reach through barriers, walls, and function like a real source of gravity. Passive (Pressure)Show Kuuton users chakra to create pockets of gravity in a specific direction. Through the use of these technique Kuuton users can launch objects away from them, pull things in to a specific place, or crush things down into the ground. Kuuton jutsu operate off a focal point, and always move towards or away from that focal point. This means that all Kuuton jutsu cover some sort of area, and only effect what is within that area. They can not be used on a micro scale. Sensor Sensors are shinobi who are able to activate a sixth sense which can locate and read chakra sources. Sensory is advantageous as it allows shinobi to perceive without using any of their conventional senses, which can easily be deceived. Sensors are able to collect a lot of information through the interpretation of this sixth sense. Tenkujutsu The user of this style has a strong affinity towards spirits. They are able to utilize certain techniques to combat and subdue spirits, Jinchuuriki, Genma, etc. Practitioners have noted their chakra to gain a [b][color=#B5215D]Maroon[/color][/b] color tint when using these techniques. Tenkujutsu share a pyramid with the prerequisite concentration.

Genjutsu 4D 3C 2BShow

*[Genjutsu • Pins and Needles]
D-Ranked Illusion Genjutsu
After performing the hand seals and pricking the opponent with some sort of small weapon (usually senbon), the opponent feels their arms and legs fall asleep. It feels as if the blood flow to these appendages has basically stopped, making their movements a tad sluggish and just all around uncomfortable. This jutsu doesn’t really hinder a person, but it makes everything they do feel off. For those who are attuned to the way their body feels during battle, it can be extremely distracting. Lasts 3 posts.

*[Genjutsu • Paranoid]
D-Ranked Illusion Genjutsu
The user will do a series of hand seals, then whistle. Anyone who hears the whistle will be captured in this genjutsu. For the following 4 posts, the target will see a shadow in the corner of their eyes, constantly shifting out of view when they attempt to look at it.

*[Genjutsu • Boom!]
D-Ranked Illusion Genjutsu
The user will do a series of hand seals, then within the next post, snap their fingers. Anyone who hears the snapping will hear an explosion in the distance behind them. This works as an effective distraction, or a scare tactic, if properly utilized.

*[Genjutsu • Smell Of The Deceased]
D-Ranked Illusion Genjutsu
After performing the necessary hand seals, any victim that sees the user preforming the hand seals will be induced under the genjutsu. This causes the target to begin to smell rotting flesh and decaying bodies.The jutsu can cause nausea and vomiting from the target, depending on how sensitive their sense of smell is. The smell of the dead can also cause some mental stress on the target. This genjutsu lasts for three (3) posts.

*[Genjutsu • Demonic Illusion • Hell Viewing]
C-Ranked Illusion Genjutsu
This is a genjutsu technique that causes its target to see a horrifying vision. The ninja will perform some hand seals and make eye contact with the target. Once cast, the world will appear normal to the target until they see the illusion. The illusion is at the discretion of the user. However, they can only make a stationary image, or a visual loop, not a controllable visual illusion. Examples would be a decapitated head on a table, or one of their friends running in circles on fire. This illusions may only last up to 4 posts, or until the user ends the jutsu themselves. As a note, this only effects sight.

*[Genjutsu • Burning to Death]
C-Ranked Illusion Genjutsu
This is a genjutsu technique which can be used in quite a few ways. The user forms a hand seal, and as long as the opponent(s) see it, then the genjutsu will begin. The user and the opponent(s) will both light on fire and start to burn, from the feet up to the head, in the opponent's mind. The opponent will normally start to panic and try to get rid of the fire, especially since they feel as if they were in actual pain. This genjutsu lasts for 4 posts and will not appear to be able to be extinguished, no matter what the victim does. The illusion is very static, in the sense that it doesn't change with the environment, it merely creates an illusory flame and pain.

*[Genjutsu • Beckoning Fog]
C-Ranked Illusion Genjutsu
The user does a series of hand seals and then spreads their arms apart. Anyone who sees this motion will see fog spread from the users arms, and then over the course of the post spread out into a 30m circle from where the user was standing. The fog is thick, and appears to be visually impenetrable, with no form of advanced or chakra based eyesight seeing through it. While nothing prevents the target from walking through it (in which case they’ll be able to see on the other side) while in the middle of the circle of fog, the target will be unable to see outside of it, limiting their ability to strategy or prepare for things coming from outside the fog. The fog remains for 5 posts before fading.

*[Genjutsu • Scatter and Run]
B-Ranked Illusion Genjutsu
If the genjutsu user ever needs to run, this is the ideal technique to use. The target simply has to see them take their first step to run after the user has performed the hand seals. If the target saw the first step to run, the genjutsu caster will suddenly split into 90 "clones." This will allow the genjutsu caster to run away amidst the confusion, as the mass of clones run in every single direction at a speed of 20. Of course, touching one of these "clones" will cause them to disperse in a cloud of smoke, but they will do everything in their power to avoid making contact. If the clones aren't touched, the jutsu lasts for up to 6 posts.

*[Genjutsu • Heaven Earth Swap]
B-Ranked Illusion Genjutsu
After forming the needed hand seals and making eye contact with the opponent, the user will initiate this genjutsu. For the following four posts, the target’s vision will seem to be flipped, so that up is down and down is up.

Tenkujutsu (3C)Show

*Shizumeru • [Vision of Spirits]
C-rank Tenkujutsu
Pre-Requisite: Sensory Concentration
After performing the needed hand seals, the user focuses chakra to their eyes, causing Maroon chakra to flare up around their eyes. This allows the user to see the chakra of spirits and spirit related objects/people as an aura of Maroon. While useful for a quick glance, it can be used up to [Chakra Pool]/5 posts, before needing to be refreshed.

*Shizumeru • [Voice of Spirits]
C-rank Tenkujutsu
After performing the needed hand seals and focusing chakra into their hand, the user places their hand on the head of a Spirit host, or on the object containing a spirit. This allows them to speak directly to the spirit in a telepathic link.

*Shizumeru • [Containing Spirits]
C-rank Tenkujutsu
After doing the needed hand seals, the user will create a 10x10x10m barrier at [Control] Speed with [Control] Strength. This barrier is created of pure Maroon chakra and will only stop things that are related to spirits, normally jinchuuriki. As a result, those that are stopped by the barrier are unable to make their way through unless they can break it. Those untainted by spirits are able to pass through the barrier at their leisure. This barrier lasts for 4 posts.

History

Historical AccountsShow

Hanzou was born into a Fukusha clan that was still nomadic, hunting and raiding through the wastes of Rock Country. This sppeared that it would be Hanzou's life as well until the clan was integrated into Iwa. With the mutual distrust between the Fukusha and the rest of Iwa, it took several years for Hanzou to be enrolled in the academy. He was a popular boy during his academy days, but was especially close with Akari Kohaku, who he befriended early on when they discovered they shared a birthday.

Hanzou was never a particularly strong boy, and as such he struggled with Taijutsu, but immediately took to both Ninjutsu and Genjutsu. In more academic subjects he was always either an A or an F student: excelling seemingly without effort or not bothering to show up. In an attempt to patch up the weaknesses in his style, Hanzou was convinced by one of his teachers to make a deal with a salamander spirit. As his blood sacrifice to seal the contract, Hanzou elected to have a large salamander tatooed on his right arm. Ankou, the particular salamander spirit convinced Hanzou to take up smoking. Upon graduating, Hanzou elected to join the shinobi forces, where he found himself on a team of genin with his longtime friend Akari Kohaku, and Enkouten Nikkou.

Abilities and Concentrations

Abilities

Salamander Slime As a salamander spirit, Ankou excretes a slimy substance from all over his body. Because he is linked to the element of fire, this slime can be extremely flammable depending on how whether or not Ankou activates its flammability with a token amount of chakra. This slime not only renders him immune to non-chakra based flame, but also sticks to anything it touches. All of Ankou's strikes will leave slime on whatever they touch. This slime sticks with [Endurance] Strength and will immediately catch fire when exposed to flame.

Concentrations
Ninjutsu	Katon Affinity A character with this concentration is able to utilize Katon, and can make and use any custom or archived jutsu that require the Katon affinity. Katon has a passive ignition effect. Passive (Ignition)Show Katon's effect is ignition, which means that all katon jutsu, regardless of effect, start and spread fire from their source. Once a jutsu has been performed, the fire from the jutsu spreads at 1/3rd the speed of the technique, rounded down. That means a C-rank katon jutsu that moves at 13 speed would create subsequent fires that spread at 4 speed. These secondary fires require flammable material to continuously spread, otherwise they will burn out on their own. Additionally, Katon jutsu have a Burning effect, and burn anyone they come in contact with with [Control] strength. This user has superb chakra control, and has learned to perform jutsu by channeling, without the use of hand seals. The user can channel any Ninjutsu that is designed to be channeled, and there are no specified parameters in which a jutsu must fall to be channeled by this method.
Taijutsu	The fundamental skill of [Close Quarters Combat] indicates the user's proficiency to efficiently utilize martial arts and advanced combat moves involving the body, for example but not limited to, advanced kicks, grapples, advanced punches, etc.

Strong Fist Style (3D)Show

*[Strong Fist Style • Balance]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Stance
A neutral stance taken by even entry level practitioners. This stance involves turning your body to be perpendicular to your opponent. One foot is rested directly in front of the other with just the toes in contact with the ground. A hand is held back while the other is forward, pointing up. This stance provides ease of dodging incoming blows by using the least amount of motion possible while still being ready to launch into an attack.

*[Strong Fist Style • Leaf Gale]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
A simple sweeping kick aimed low to knock the opponent off balance.

*[Strong Fist Style • Dynamic Entry]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
In this technique, the user builds momentum and speed in order to bridge the gap between themselves and a distanced target. After covering an appropriate distance, the user then lets loose a form of distraction, like a thrown object, in order to misdirect the target's attention. The user then leaps with their momentum, delivering a strong kick to bridge the rest of the distance.

*[Strong Fist Style • Great Leaf Flash]
C-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite: *[Strong Fist Style • Balance]
The user will tense the muscles in their lower body to a great degree. Doing so causes them to briefly become immobile but creates an enormous amount of pent up energy. By bringing their back leg forward in a straight kick they release all of this energy in a single explosive burst that will knock a kicked foe back a number of meters equal to the difference in their strength and the practitioner's.

*[Strong Fist Style • Great Leaf Whirlwind]
C-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
A combination attack started by the user unleashing a powerful kick to the side of their opponent. They will then place themselves behind the target and unleash a quick flurry of punches before kicking another side and repeating the process. This process can keep going ad infinitum or until the practitioner disengages.

History Ankou is a salamander spirit from a community of such spirits living in a firey cavern deep beneath Rock Country. While a lesser-known type of spirit, they make contracts with mortals quite readily in exchange for the vices of the human world: generally meaning alcohol and tabacco. One of Hanzou's academy teachers had such a contract, and was able to act as a go-between to introduce Hanzou and Ankou. They immediately hit it off and formed a pact which Hanzou comemorated by having a salamander design tattooed on his arm. For their first few weeks together, Ankou refused to do anything for Hanzou without a cigarette, which eventually prompted Hanzou to take up smoking to improve his rapport with his new spirit friend.
