Physical Features:
- Face/head: Zhizi has a clear complexion and, unlike most inhabitants of Sunagakure, he has an alabaster skin tone. His eyes are a simple Onyx black, as is his silk-like hair. His hair is long enough to reach his waist, however, it is almost always kept in a high ponytail.
- Body: Zhizi has a lithe, athletic build and is often mistaken for a girl from behind due to his slightly larger-than-average hips. His body is covered in the typical scarring from practicing with a sword and other bladed weaponry. However, he has no significant scarring outside of what was previously mentioned.

Picture:
ZhiziShow
- General: Zhizi is a very studious child, and loves to better himself. While competitive by nature, he does not gloat when victorious, nor does he sulk when defeated. He is constantly striving to master his craft and believes that one can only attain true mastery when they limit themselves rather than studying everything that they can. He helps others when he can, but also believes that others should help themselves before asking for help.
- Hopes/Dreams: Zhizi strives to live up to the inheritance of Xiao Li, a senior of the village and Tenkujutsu specialist. He hopes to one day live up to the legacy that he was given, and to even surpass it. However, he also hopes to be the greatest swordsman to have ever lived.
- Fears: While he hopes to live up to the legacy that he was given by the higher-ups of the village, Zhizi fears that he may not be good enough. His greatest fear is that the village will see him perform poorly and give the legacy to another.
- Combat Mentality: Zhizi would love to claim that he is merciless in battle, that he could kill another person without blinking an eye, however, he has never been in a true fight to the death and is scared to death. While scared to die, he is unafraid of pain due to years of training with the sword and suffering from accidental wounds. Currently he prefers to disable his human opponents rather than kill them, but has no qualms about killing animal companions.

Armor Based Tsukimogami | Weapon Based Tsukimogami |
MirageShow Carved from the remnant pieces of Xiao Li's Spike puppet, Zhi's mask holds the sealed heat spirit that once gave Spike his Tsukimogami abilities which are listed below. Mirage Field After enough chakra is channeled into Mirage, the mask releases Kaenton into a 25-meter radius around them, causing heat to disperse in the air within that area. This heat will cause a minor increase of up to 15 degrees Celsius, but its real strength is in the way the hot air behaves. The behavior of the heated vs. cold hair causes a Mirage field where everything's appearance is slightly distorted. Unless the individual has a Taijutsu and Instinct stat average higher than 25, they will find it impossible to gauge distances correctly. Additionally, objects and people will all appear larger than they actually are. Mirage protects its wearer from the effects of using this technique, however, in order to use this technique a constant supply of chakra is required. This technique may be maintained up to stamina/3 before needing to be re-cast. Desert Aura After enough chakra is channeled into Mirage, the wearer of Mirage can increase the temperature of the air around them. This creates a 30-meter diameter area of intense heat centered on Mirage for the following Seven posts. Anybody within the area will feel an intense heat that will drain 4 stamina every 2 posts. The wearer of Mirage is protected from this effect, however, a constant supply of chakra is required to keep the aura active. The heat aura created through this technique travels away from Mirage at a speed of 20. This technique may be maintained up to Chakra Pool/2 up to seven posts before needing to be re-cast. | SandstormShow Zhzi carries Sandstorm, one of his primary Tsukimogami, strapped to the back of his waist with the hilt of Sandstorm sticking out past his right hip. Sandstorm is a katana that has a simple sand color cord wrapped around the hilt, a gold-plated pommel and guard, and a sheath made of stained redwood. The blade of Sandstorm is twenty-six inches in length while the hilt of Sandstorm is eight inches in length. The two abilities of this Sandstorm cannot be used in conjunction. When Zhizi channels an A-rank amount of chakra into Sandstorm, he is able to generate an A-rank strength sandstorm and is able to move within the sandstorm unaffected. The circumference of the sandstorm is forty meters and takes the shape of a sphere. While he moves within the sandstorm, Zhizi is able to feel the location of every chakra source within the sandstorm, though he is not able to tell the difference between a friend, or foe. The sandstorm spins at a speed of 25 with a strength of 25. When Zhizi channels a B-rank amount of chakra into Sandstorm, he is able to expel a large amount of sand from the blade. This will then expand towards a target area in the form of a wave, covering and crushing them in an ocean of sand. This travels with 20 speed, traveling a grand total of 30 meters. This wave is 15 meters tall, 20 meters wide, and 10 meters thick, and impacts with a strength of 20, washing over its enemies and crushing them beneath the sand. Passive (Grinding)Show Sand, however, is rough, and grinds in it's movement, eroding and tearing at anything it comes in contact with. This makes Sand an aggressive element that adds to it's strength when coming in contact with solid matter by breaking it down and adding it to it's mass. When Sand breaks through anything it is strong against, it adds 1/5th of the strength of that thing to it's own strength. A 30 strength Sand Wave breaking through a 10 strength Doton wall would add 2 strength to itself, having 32 strength. Against organic matter, Sand grinds against skin and wounds, catching microtears that can become irritating and worsen existing wounds. Below is a list for how Sand interacts with solid matter

Triceratops Puppet "Spike" | Velociraptor Puppet "Tyrant" |
---|---|
Spike was Xiao Li's oldest, and favorite, puppet out of his two dinosaur-themed puppets. Once modeled after an Ankylosaurus, since being nearly completely destroyed, Spike has been rebuilt to resemble that of a Triceratops, though he more resembles a combination of the two dinosaurs. Spike now stands eighteen feet tall at his shoulder, he is nine feet wide, twelve feet long, and has a nine-foot-long Ankylosaurus hammer tail. While he once was made solely of wooden parts, Spike is now made fully of steel parts, with everything made to work together like a well-oiled machine. | Tyrant, like Spike, is a puppet that Xiao Li designed to resemble one of Xiao Li's favorite dinosaurs, which, in Tyrant's case, was the Velociraptor. Tyrant has, like Spike, been recently rebuilt from the ground up, with all of his wooden parts being replaced with steel ones. Tyrant now stands twelve feet tall at his shoulders, and from his snout to the tip of the spearhead blade on his tail he is twenty-two feet long. |
B-Rank Durability: 20 Deftness: 10 Strength: 15 Mobility: 5 | B-Rank Durability: 13 Deftness: 14 Strength: 14 Mobility: 14 |
Mechanisms: Hammer Tail: The end of Spike's tail is a twenty-pound steel hammer. Body Spikes: Covering Spike’s body are three-foot thick, razor-sharp, pyramid spikes. Shield: Spike’s backplate is able to lift up via a hydraulic shaft in order to act as a shield. Barrier: Spike is able to produce a barrier that extends out from him at a five-meter radius. The barrier forms at a speed of twenty and has a strength of twenty. It stands ten meters tall. Gatling Gun: Inside of Spike’s mouth is a Senbon Gatling gun that holds two hundred senbon. This Gatling gun fires with a speed and strength equal to Spike's Deftness stat. Prisoner Lockup: Inside of Spike is an eight-foot long, four-foot tall, steel bar cage that is meant to hold prisoners. Though Li often uses it as a portable bed. Stasis Capsule: Inside of Spike’s tail is a two-foot-long steel capsule that has been treated with chakra to house spirits with the Temporary Housing seal. | Mechanisms: Gatling Gun: Housed in Tyrant's mouth is a Gatlinggatling gun that holds two hundred senbon. The senbon fire with a speed, and strength equal to Tyrant's Deftness. Retractable Arms: Tyrant’s arms are able to be fired off in an attempt to grab hold of a target. The arms are then retracted by a wench with a strength equal to Tyrant's. Weaponized Tail: Tyrant’s seven-foot-long tail is capable of moving in any direction and has a three-foot-long spearhead at the tip. This spear head is attached to a forty-foot chain that is stored inside of Tyrant's body. The spearhead fires at a strength equal to Tyrant's, and the chain retracts at a speed equal to Tyrant's. Sickle Claws: Modeled after the velociraptor's infamous claws, Tyrant has two crescent moon sickle blade "claws" on his feet. These sickles not only move up, and down, as Li wishes, but they can also be fired off at a strength equal to Tyrant's. Feather Blades: Tyrant's body was once covered in feather-like blades, however, upon being rebuilt, the blades are hidden in slits on Tyrant's body that allow for the blades to be fired off. These feather-like blades are flat, two inches wide, and four inches long. Each blade can be fired off individually, or at the same time. These blades fire off at a strength equal to Tyrant's. Wind Turbines: In Tyrant's feet, just behind his claws, are tiny wind turbines. When Xiao Li channels a C-rank amount of chakra into the turbines, Tyrant's Mobility stat will increase by six, while his deftness stat drops by six. This boost lasts for eight posts unless canceled. Nostril Flamethrowers: Inside of Tyrant's snout are two tiny flamethrowers. When Xiao Li channels a B-rank amount of chakra into the flamethrowers they will activate. A B-rank jet of flame is created that extends five meters. This jet of flame can be maintained for three posts unless canceled. The jet of flame travels at a speed of twenty and has a strength of twenty. |

Iaido KenjutsuShow
*[Iaido • Ancestral Focus]
D-Rank Taijutsu Discipline
The hallmark of Iaido is its practitioners abilities to launch an attack even when their swords are sheathed. This Discipline represents the practitioner's capacity to consistently execute a sword draw and slash all in one movement by gripping the edge of the scabbard and pulling the scabbard slightly forward before drawing the sword. This Discipline enables the practitioner to immediately draw their sword and attack at the start of combat.
*[Iaido • Weapon Mastery]
D-Rank Taijutsu Discipline
Since Iaido is a style that prioritizes speed over brute strength, wise usage of the blade is paramount to the practitioner's success in the style. This Discipline represents the practitioner's knowledge of their weapon's strengths and weaknesses in combat, allowing them to use the weapon more efficiently both inside and outside of its use in Iaido techniques and avoid unnecessarily presenting their weapon's blind spots to the opponent.
*[Iaido • Ambidexterity]
D-Rank Taijutsu Discipline
After practicing for a long amount of time with the concept of using both of their hands with equal skill, the user has developed a level of ambidexterity that allows them to utilize both hands equally and as effectively without any penalty. This extends to other methods of combat or simple everyday life as well.
**[Iaido • One with the Sheath]
D-Rank Taijutsu Discipline
Prerequisite(s): 8 Speed.
The practitioner has learned how to more quickly and efficiently sheath his blades. The practitioner can now seamlessly transition from drawing their blade to slash to sheathing their blade, allowing the practitioner to sheath their sword in half the time, up to a maximum speed equal to their Speed score, for the more rapid execution of Iaido techniques.
*[Iaido • Last Breath]
D-Rank Taijutsu Maneuver
The most iconic (and most basic) strike of Iaido, the practitioner quickly draws and cuts with their blade in a wide arc in one fluid motion. This simultaneous draw and attack straight from the scabbard makes Iaido well-suited for an initial surprise attack and for taking advantage of openings presented by the opponent.
*[Iaido • Mantra]
D-Rank Taijutsu Maneuver
A simple yet potent defense, especially against other weapons users, the practitioner partially draws the sword from its scabbard and blocks incoming attacks with the back of their blade. This technique is ineffective against opponents with higher Strength than the practitioner's Strength.
*[Iaido • Last Rites]
D-Rank Taijutsu Maneuver
A defensive technique particularly useful when an opponent is close to the practitioner or is clinching them in a grapple, the practitioner grabs the hilt of their sword with a reverse grip and rams the butt or pommel of the hilt into the opponent's body, pushing the opponent back a number of meters equal to the difference between their Strength scores. Conversely, against opponents with higher Strength than their own, the practitioner can use this technique to push themselves back a number of meters equal to their own Strength score. The speed and simplicity of the attack can push opponents away and give the practitioner the needed space to set up additional attacks.
*[Iaido • Clouding Eyes]
D-Rank Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite(s): 8 Speed.
A simple technique meant to cripple the target's vision, the practitioner draws the sword from its scabbard and aims a quick slash at the eyes. This technique can be done in any single direction to either target one or both of the opponent's eyes.

History
Historical AccountsShow
Zhizi has always been a good child and has always strived to be the best he could be in everything he did. While he was in the academy he excelled in his Taijutsu classes, however, that is not to say that he was bad in any of his classes. While he was above average in all of his studies, he did not show any pronounced skill in one field. He was always more of a jack of trades student. Being fairly good at everything quickly led Zhizi to become lost in his training as a ninja until his uncle suggested that he train in kenjutsu, that way, should his chakra reserves ever run low, he would have something to rely on. Zhizi quickly fell in love with his sword training and became obsessed. The more he practiced the more he loved it. It was not until he had graduated the academy that Zhizi's life changed. He had been chosen to accept the legacy of a deceased Jounin who specialized in Tenkujutsu. After being selected for the legacy, Zhizi did everything he could to learn about the man known as Xiao Li and even began introducing himself using the man's surname as a sign of respect. While still unable to use Tenkujutsu, Zhizi is constantly training and studying until the day comes that he can live up to the legacy that he was given.
