JINRAI, SABURO
Sabu

"I will be the thunder's roar!"

General Information Age: 14
Gender: Male
Height: 5'7" (176cm)
Weight: 126lbs (57kg)
Physical Features:
  • Face/head: Saburo has a soft, square shaped face with dark brown eyes. He sports a mop of dark brown hair that reaches down just past his jaw that compliments his pale, smooth skin. However, to his father's dismay, Sabu has dyed a streak of white through the middle of his hair which has often been the cause of the two clashing due to his father's stubbornness and plain outlook on appearance.
  • Body: Saburo is mostly of an average build for a male his age, apart from being slightly taller and having longer and slender fingers than most. Both attributed as being a Jinrai. His body is somewhat toned from having trained as a shinobi giving him more muscle definition whilst not being too outlandish.
  • Notable Features: Saburo has the usual traits of someone from the Jinrai; the darker hair, slender figure and longer fingers. Something which Saburo has grown to accept whilst still adding his own personal touch.
Clothing/Accessories: Saburo' wears a simple white t-shirt that's hidden beneath a cloud grey hoodie, that has a white symbol of the Jinrai on the back, of which the sleeves are usually rolled up to his elbows. The sleeves also have a white lightning design running from the shoulders down embroidered into them. His bottom half consists of knee-length black khaki shorts with a pair of black shinobi sandals on his feet. His attire makes his pale skin stick out even more or perhaps it adds? Either way Sabu doesn't take much notice of it and enjoys his clothing choices. He keeps a pouch on the back of his waist that he keeps shuriken in as well as a holster on his right leg for his kunai. His forehead protector sits on a black band that he keeps tied around his forehead, sometimes angling it up over his fringe.

Personality:
  • General: Saburo is more of an extrovert as he enjoys being out of the house and going places and whilst that may be somewhat restricted unless he was on a mission he finds enjoyment exploring about the village. The social side of being an extrovert isn't as high for Sabu, not that he won't socialize it's just that it's shadowed by his eagerness for exploration and adventure. Sabu is also what you could call a rebel, whether that's due to his age or just himself isn't entirely clear but he does find himself getting into trouble due to his rebellious ways which seem to be more focused on his part as a member of the Jinrai. This rebel side of him increased as he advanced his learnings of genjutsu, applying it to people in public whilst he hid away although only harmless illusions. Often it's via the use of his Gabuki, a bamboo flute, that he's grown to enjoy and cherish more as he performs music that usually has a calming touch to it.
  • Hopes/Dreams: Saburo's greatest dream is to develop himself as a shinobi first and performer second which causes him to clash with his father a lot of the time. Whilst his father accepts Saburo's use of his instrument in his techniques, he is still a stubborn old fool in Sabu's eyes. Saburo want's to also develop himself personally by adventure and exploring the world, spending time and even living in each of the countries to learn of various cultures and perhaps even find forgotten relics.
  • Fears: Sabu has a fear of losing his instrument, like other Jinrai, and it's this fear that makes him highly skeptical to allow others to touch it. Despite his rebellious nature to the Jinrai he also fears losing them and subsequently his birthplace of Kumogakure. This mainly stems from the fights he has been in with his father which have ended in, what Sabu believes to be, idle threats towards him causing this fear that has grown over time. What will he do if he is kicked out of his home? Where will he go?
  • Combat Mentality: Saburo goes into combat with a medium ranged style, utilizing ninjutsu for the most part but not afraid to get in close combat situations. That said, he does prefer the element of surprise and will attempt stealth and sleight of hand techniques whenever possible. He prefers to keep his genjutsu as a trump card if necessary however that doesn't mean he won't weave it in during the fight.

    The creation of Gaki Buki, or Gabuki (Instrument Weapons), is a tradition long upheld throughout the generations of the Jinrai clan. Upon a shinobi’s graduation from the shinobi stream of the academy in Kumogakure no Sato, the shinobi is gifted with a Gabuki. This is an instrument which has been modified to allow for its use as a weapon in Taijutsu. The Gabuki are also treated, allowing the user to use it as a focus to basic channel various [Melodic Dissonance] jutsu. Saburo's Gabuki is a rather plain bamboo flute that he usually keeps attached across the back of his waist. The flute itself is 21" long with an inside diamater of 3/4", weighs roughly 100 grams.

Primary Affinity: Fuuton
Abilities and Concentrations
Abilities
First Ability[Melodic Dissonance] The Jinrai clan uses the style of Melodic Dissonance to make use of music and sound in the course of combat. The production of vibrations from chakra is only possible through the use of the Jinrai's unique chakra, which their ancestors received from interbreeding with a spirit of seduction. As such, the Jinrai can use their chakra to create or manipulate vibrations that have already been imbued with their chakra. This allows them to produce various sound and vibration related effects. This takes an ability slot for the Jinrai's unique chakra.

Third Ability
Concentrations
Ninjutsu
Fuuton Affinity:
Fuuton Affinity
A character with this concentration is able to utilize Fuuton, and can make and use any custom or archived jutsu that require the Fuuton affinity. Fuuton has an cutting effect.
Passive (Cutting)Show
Fuuton has a natural cutting property to it, that exists in all jutsu unless otherwise stated. This gives fuuton a unique opportunity to strike with additional power, and to act as a offensive defense. Regardless of their purpose fuuton jutsu passively cut with no distinct pattern at 1/2 the strength of the technique rounded down unless otherwise stated. This means if someone punched a 20 strength fuuton wall, they would get cuts on their hand applied with 10 strength. This also means that fuuton jutsu specifically designated to cut things can create devastating wound by essentially striking twice.
Raiton:
Raiton
A character with this concentration is able to utilize Raiton, and can make and use any custom or archived jutsu that require the Raiton affinity. Raiton has a shocking effect.
Passive (Shocking)Show
Raiton has the effect of shocking, which means causes it's effect to be diffuse upon impact. In organic material, this causes nervous stimulation which results in numbness, tingling, loss of sensation, and sometimes paralysis. In inorganic material, this means that the strength of the jutsu diffuses across an area 2x the size of the attack. In a jutsu that creates a lightning ball 2m in diameter, if it struck a wall the size of the attack would cover a 4m area.

Additionally, the strength of the nervous effect on organic material from raiton jutsu is determined by the Strength stat range they fall into.
  • 1-14 Strength Requirement: Tingling, acute numbness.
  • 15-24 Strength Requirement: Loss of Sensation
  • 25-34 Strength Requirement: Localized Paralysis
  • 35+ Strength Requirement: Diffuse Paralysis

History
HistoryShow
Saburo was born in Kumogakure no Sato and into the Jinrai line through his father. From around the age of four Saburo began to learn of music and performance at a more higher level as he was instructed by his father and eventually this led to his own instrument of a choice, the flute. From then Saburo was put through some intense musical training to develop him as a proper musician and this also began Saburo's resentment of his father as it appeared his mother was the only one who actually took care of him instead of forcing this training. Saburo's father was stubborn and proud and wanted his son to follow the same, however Saburo eventually set his sights on joining the Academy and becoming a shinobi which sparked a yelling match with his father, as usual.

At the age of seven, Saburo was finally enrolled into the Academy much to his delight and thanks to his mother. This gave Sabu a sense of freedom and accomplishment and began to grow his yearn for adventure but also began to grow the seed of rebellion. He was a good student, for the most part. He studied well but would often get in trouble for slacking off as he made new friends and they would get caught not paying attention or talking too much. After several counts of this his parents were notified which of course did not go down well. From then on Saburo began to think more about the subtlety of a shinobi and he began to practice his hiding capabilities to improve his stealth which didn't go unnoticed ... Or did it? With this set of skills being developed by himself and with the aid of teachers, Saburo began to focus more on his training to become a shinobi at the cost of his musical abilities.

Saburo spent his time developing in the Academy as he found it a nice escape from his homelife to the point that he failed his first exam on purpose so he could stay longer and hopefully learn more, however it did backfire as Saburo got himself more intense musical practice although perhaps it didn't backfire as much as he initially thought. It was during a practice session with his flute that Saburo discovered the abilities of the Jinrai that his father had kept from him; using sound and vibrations as actual shinobi techniques. Sabu was both surprised and angry with his father however he was instructed on how to use these abilities, even his father was reluctant about it. During this training it was also discovered that Saburo developed his own form of genjutsu that utilized his flute to which he took a fascination with this and began to show these new found abilities off at the Academy.

Over the years that Saburo spent at the Academy he had developed both himself and as a shinobi, to which he did graduate at age ten. From there he was an official shinobi of Kumogakure and he felt his first real sense of accomplishment. This didn't excuse him from keeping up with his musical abilities however but it did start his rebellious ways as he began to fight with his father more, storm out of music practice and begin getting in trouble for pranking people in the village with his musical genjutsu. With no real way to channel his frustration with his father, Sabu took it out on pranking people until finally he put it to his shinobi training as he began to practice with a chuunin. Whether the chuunin was reluctant to do so was uncertain but it did help keep Saburo out of trouble whilst developing his abilities and learning new methods, including the ability to use Raiton jutsu. This lasted throughout the years up until recently when the chuunin in question was killed during a mission, now Saburo was more determined to get out of the village and explore whilst perhaps finding out who had killed his instructor.
