DescriptionShow
Over the years, Shiv's physical description changed drastically. In his early years, he had been quite lanky and thin which was hardly surprising considering his focus on agility rather than strength. However, the years in service of Kirigakure have conditioned him to be close to the epitome of human performance. Something that many never come close to actually achieving. When you gaze upon Shiv today he doesn't look weak or misshapen in the slightest, instead, his body is like that of chiseled stone with toned muscle seemingly bulging with power. Being quite handsome in appearance he isn't above using his looks to charm those around him, becoming quite the beloved celebrity around the village.

Something of a slight to this otherwise perfect image would be his skin tone. The color of Shiv's skin is a pale white almost coming off as greyish. The light tone is mostly due to the fact that Kirgakure is constantly covered in a thick blanket of mist which conveniently blocks out the sun for weeks at a time. Not that he minds really, for the sun has never really been a necessity for a man conveniently working in the shadows. Unfortunately, this does have the stigma of him looking rather corpselike. Upon his upper torso on his back is a rather large scar. This scar came out of a failed mission years ago when he came face to face with the infamous Fushinkou, Yaku. Aside from that, he is rather unblemished with just a few notable scars littered randomly over the entirety of his body.

One peculiar thing about Shiv is his teeth. Shiv has a set of teeth that are quite distinguishable from most normal people outside of Kirigakure no Sato. This unique trait is that his teeth have been sharpened to a point to achieve a shark-like appearance. It is exotic outside of the village but around the village, it is considered a pretty standard modification to usually intimidate people outside of the village. On occasion, he has even found them to be quite effective in cutting through a variety of things.

Moving on, we are left with Shiv's head. His hair never changed much throughout the years, as he was always mindful of how it affected him in combat. His dark brown hair is cut short with the top left slightly longer than the sides. The way in which he styles his hair is fashionable while still being acceptable for one in his line of work. There is also a small braid that he has grown out in memory to those he has lost over the years, especially Shizuka, Naoko. This braid is located by his right temple and tied securely with a band of leather.
Clothing/AccessoriesShow
Shiv is a weapon of the village through and through and this can be seen by his choice of attire. Specializing almost exclusively in assassination he had a custom jumpsuit fitted to his body focusing on enhancing maneuverability and mobility. This one-piece black jumpsuit is breathable and durable, constructed to withstand abuse in a variety of different environments. Upon the jumpsuit is an interchangeable system for attaching web gear and the like so that Shiv can easily carry customized load-outs for diverse missions. This web gear includes many black military-grade pouches for holding weaponry and the like. In addition, he also has a refillable camel pack that holds water to keep him hydrated on duty; it comes attachable to his helmet. Within one of the many pouches on his suit is a folded black and white shemagh which is worn when not paired with his custom-built helmet. This helmet is one of a kind, designed, engineered and manufactured to minimize weight while maximizing performance. The visor is virtually unbreakable as well as polarized to help reduce the effect of glare while being active. Made out of high-performance composite materials, this ensures the ultimate protection against a majority of threats. What about his head-protector you ask? Well, he usually wears it upon his right shoulder, firmly attached to his suit so that all can see his allegiance to Kirigakure no Sato.
EquipmentShow
'Ol'faithful': Heavier than it looks, tricky to wield, and guaranteed to last. This 20-inch machete weighs in at two pounds while being quite thick with a width of four inches. Unique to this chakra sensitive machete is the uncanny ability for it to increase in size, becoming both broader and heavier; the increase is three times its original size; 60 inches in length, 12 inches in width. When fully grown this weapon takes on the appearance of a two-handed sword, in essence looking like a giant kitchen knife. This increase in interchangeable, changing between regular and big on a whim, to activate the ability the user simply pours some chakra into the blade until it either increases or decreases in size. This machete is stored in a sheath across his back, securely attached to his suit. Built into this sheath is a mechanism that holds the blade firmly in place, though can be quickly unlocked and released by pulling at a particular angle.

x2 Windmill Shuriken: The windmill shuriken is unique as it can be collapsed into a dagger looking object for ease of carrying. These shurikens have been slightly modified for use with a length of wire, essentially connecting the two for further use. This is done by having small holes on the shuriken so that wire can be run through it easily. An example of use would be a makeshift grappling hook. These are securely fastened upon his machete sheath on his back.

Ninja Wire (20 feet): Standard wire used for a variety of general ninja purposes. Located on the waist, securely latched onto his belt.
SatchelShow
x3 Rations: Standard military issue field rations that provide enough for one meal. Typically, the ration contains a meal item (beans and wiener sausages, scalloped potatoes with ham, smoked salmon fillet, macaroni and cheese, cheese omelet with mushrooms, shepherd's pie, etc.), wet-packed (sliced or mashed) fruit in a boxed retort pouch, and depending on the meal a combination of instant soup or cereal, fruit drink crystals, jam or cheese spread, peanut butter, honey, crackers, bread (bun) compressed into a retort pouch, coffee and tea, sugar, commercially available chocolate bars and hard candy, a long plastic spoon, paper towels and wet wipes. Everything is packaged inside a heavy-duty folding paper bag no bigger than that of a regular bowl.

x1 Standard Body Disposal Kit: A basic disposal kit given to each member of the HHD. The kit comes with all the essential supplies to dispose of a body completely; in the most standard method. Included within this kit: Canteen worth of flammable oil, flint, and a steel tool.
Military Waist PouchShow
x5 Explosive Kunai: A basic kunai with the addition of an exploding tag being connected to the back of the projectile with a small amount of wire. The tag is clearly visible but makes for a stronger projectile.
x40 Senbon
x10 Shuriken
x10 Exploding Tags - Kept within the left pouch on his belt.
x1 Ninja Wire (20 feet): Standard wire used for a variety of general ninja purposes. Located on the waist, securely latched onto his belt.
PersonalityShow
Having been trained to follow orders and accomplish any task given to him, Shiv has become a desensitized killer with an elitist attitude, being utterly rude to those that he deems lesser than himself. This can be seen through his interaction with people as he is quite a remorseless and sarcastic individual. His disregard for those around him can be seen through his logic of comparing people to weapons and or tools based on their inherent qualities. This ideology of comparing people has greatly affected the man over the years as he considers those below to be nothing more than a necessity required to provide for those of true worth. In this frame of mind, he actively separates people based on their presumed worth, thus the man is completely fine with slaughtering practically anybody rationalizing it as deserved since they weren't capable weapons, to begin with. However, everything isn't exactly black and white to the man as there are notable exceptions that can make trash useful enough to be left alone. For if everyone was expendable then what would be the point of being above everyone? At least that is the rationale Shiv has adopted to explain society in general.

When not lost in thought, Shiv is quite calculating by nature. This nature can be seen through his professionalism in relation to his role and position as a ninja of the village. With that in mind, these traits can also be clearly seen through his demeanor while on duty. Shiv carries himself with distinction revealing complete confidence in himself which expertly hides the demented side of him. Unfortunately, there are times when people don't see this pious individual at his best, instead, witnessing the worst usually due to his obscure judgment on their actual worth. People are only shown his professionalism if deemed worthy of his respect. Due to this, superiors are often the only ones shown this side, but almost solely because of this pseudo respect and in combination with his ability as a ninja, those above have always spoken highly of the man, in turn, increasing his perceived reputation.

To be honest, that very reputation Shiv earned over the years has gone directly to his head. He has become much more arrogant of his abilities and has taken up a lone wolf attitude, thinking himself above his peers to a point in which he prefers doing things solo instead of relying on people. However, his views don’t stop him from talking to those he comes in contact with. In fact, he is quite a social individual with a flair for the dramatic. Dramatic being that things always seem to have to be edgy. Once people get over his sarcastic demeanor they find he can be quite fun and or at least interesting to be around, especially if one is looking for something out of the ordinary. Regrettably, Shiv has a tendency for talking to women over men being more comfortable conversing with those he doesn't exactly see as 'rivals' or 'competition'.

If anything was truly affected by Shiv’s elitist view, it would probably be his outlook on women. He has taken up a chauvinistic view of women and essentially objectified them for the most part. The only time he acknowledges them as more than just an object is if they can hold their own in combat. However, he will still playfully flirt with them, but those that have proven to be competent weapons are of a higher pedigree than those that can’t fight worth a damn. This particular trait of his has become universally known to many around the village, but due to his position and standing, is often overlooked by the same people. Shiv is always seeking to refine his abilities by openly looking for a worthy challenge to test his mettle against, which would also explain his treatment of women. A challenge is a challenge and boy does he take pleasure in taking down a worthy target. Known throughout the land for his brutality towards those deemed acceptable to kill, the magnitude of this ruthlessness has barely been seen in person but from what people have heard his targets are often mutilated beyond recognition aside from the head which is usually required in hunt and disposal missions.

Shiv finds comfort in being ready to go at any moment and as such he spends much of his free time maintaining everything, making sure everything is in tip-top shape, and or going through records of his peers or rogue ninja. Those are things he feels are necessary for his daily routine, but are not necessarily the only things he does. For fun he likes hooking up with women, partying, and or playing around with people. To relax he enjoys hiking around the island surrounding the village and training on the slippery and jagged cliffs atop the mountain range. Within the village is another story for there are few places he can go unnoticed, thus he likes to stay home in his condo located in the inner portion of the village till nightfall. Here he has installed the necessities needed to not venture out into the world; gym, training area, garden, pool, bar etc.

Even with Shiv’s training and years of experience, it is almost impossible to completely remove emotion from oneself and as such he does have a soft spot for those that are related to him through blood and or a few individuals outside his family that grow on him over the years. When he is with these people you can easily tell his change in personality as he becomes much more considerate than at any other time, blatantly going out of his way to keep these people out of harm’s way if he can manage it. Thus, from that one can easily guess what the man fears too; emotional connections. Becoming more human instead of a weapon is what keeps the champion of Kirigakure awake at night. This constant struggle of attempting to achieve his goal while also caring for those around him is what nags his being and makes him human enough to keep sane.
HistoryShow
A while back a small baby was born. It was a gloomy and cold night; the rain came down hard and heavy. The hard thumps that echoed from the roof made for a somewhat comforting melody compared to that of the screaming coming from within. This was the night Shiv was born. There wasn't much to tell about the newborn, he looked and cried just like any other baby, but was smaller than average. Rushing back from a patrol the father stormed into the delivery room. What he saw made him cringe slightly. This was his baby?! The brute of a man thought that there must have been some mistake. His baby was supposed to be; grandiose in every way. The baby was a bit of a disappointment for the father, who had high expectations for his would-be son who would be tasked with furthering the political influence of their once lowly house. What could the father do with such an average bloke that looked more like a dock worker than a potential ninja? Only time would tell if the boy turned out to be useful, but with a fake smile, the father kept a reserved demeanor as to not spoil the moment.

The Karagata family had a reputation for producing exceptional assassins. They were a family born and raised upon the sea, the majority worked in or around the docks transporting goods and people everywhere around the country. Those that were chosen to become ninja were highly praised within the house as they brought the family more influence and power. It would be troublesome for the father to convince the house to allow such an average child into the academy, but after bothering them enough the father finally got his wish. Surely they could see the boy wasn't going to be much use on the docks. There was no doubt before long that Shiv would be forced upon the same path as his father as the man worked tirelessly to forge a weapon of worth out of the boy. The expectations placed on this boy were quite daunting, but the boy met them through blood, sweat, and tears. Shiv's father romanticized combat, known to hospitalize men for simply looking at him wrong, he would speed the boy’s progress forward with a firm hand. These harsh and strict methods conditioned Shiv into violence and combat which ultimately prepared the boy for his future role as a ninja of Kirigakure. It wasn’t long before the boy was accustomed to this brutal way of learning, achieving, and overcoming obstacles. Truth be told, it wasn’t an easy childhood but Shiv made the best of it, coming to enjoy the challenge and thrill of overcoming the challenges given to him by his father.

Taught in the ways of the older generation, Shiv eventually emerged as a spitting image of his father, though smaller and less intimidating. When it came time to enter the academy, Shiv was already well on his way for anything they had to throw at him. The years in the academy seemed to breeze by, Shiv became known as a fierce duelist having faced the best students countless times, coming out on top or equal. His group was even considered one of the strongest for their overall ability to outmatch any other group in fighting prowess. Most of that group went on to pass their final exam and become genin, it was a moment of accomplishment for these younglings and their parents. Passing the final exam meant being placed into a customary duo group. Upon being placed with another, Shiv instantly recognized his rival, a boy by the name of Taka. He was one of the strongest boys in the academy having bested Shiv on more than one occasion; he would make a great rival. Their mentor, on the other hand, was a drunkard. His name was Ochi; he was a man of small stature measuring only slightly above that of Shiv and Taka, but what he lacked in height he made up in crazy. His training methods were outright dangerous and unorthodox, leaving a long-lasting impression on both boys. Throughout the years they grew as a team and came to be known throughout the village for their brutality and dark sense of humor.

While not training or the like, Shiv was an active player around the docks being hired by his numerous cousins for small jobs here and there, especially those that needed a bit of muscle. Truth be told, Shiv was slightly distant to the majority of his cousins as they had all become honest working sea folk who earned their living with the 'Karagata Shipping Company'. There were definitely times that Shiv wished he hadn't been pushed to become a weapon, as the further indoctrinated he became to more he became distant with his family who didn't exactly share the same state of mind that was required of a ninja of the village. When you became a weapon, the family generally looked at you as a means of furthering their own influence and the like. So instead of keeping close with his cousins they eventually began to use him for whatever they needed, but as was his purpose he willingly agreed to tasks without hesitation. In turn, this would eventually have the effect of him feeling alone even when amidst family.

Eventually, the duo was given the chance at advancement. During the examination to become chuunin, Shiv and Taka excelled and were surprised at the fact that there was actually quite a decent amount of competition still in the village. The duo passed their examination with flying colors, passing along with many other skilled Kirigakure comrades. His father was intensely proud of what he had created yet still maintained his ferocity toward sharpening Shiv into a weapon of worth. This might have been the first time Shiv actually saw his father display any sort of positive emotion as everything was usually implied as positive. Without much of a male role model outside his father and his mentor, Shiv too would eventually take up their behavioral traits becoming colder than most others his age. People that showed emotion were usually considered on a weaker spectrum; this would shape the boy immensely as he slowly began to interact with more people.

Cast amidst another squad, Shiv eventually left the confines of his parent’s house, moving into an apartment with a couple of his cousins in the merchant ring of Kirigakure. Training and working became the only real things of importance. During the day he did his usual duties and when night fell across the land he took the graveyard shift doing rounds and watching for threats in regards to the safety of Kirigakure. Many would say he became a total workaholic during this period of his life, having nothing better to do than work to both improve his standing and abilities as a ninja. That isn't to say that his efforts didn't help with that goal, but they also further distanced him from his childhood buddies and the like. Even the cousins he lived with didn't exactly know him as they barely if at all saw him.

Specializing in close-quarter combat Shiv modified his body so that he could be more efficient and effective at close range. By adding a pair of air tubules throughout his body he was able to develop a style of killing that utterly decimated his enemy at close to medium range effectively turning his enemies into a bloody mess of organs, feces, and whatever they ate before combat. This style came to be so effective that he was thought to be easily jounin level, surprising enemies and dispatching them like nothing before they even had time to realize his abilities. Earning a decent track record of successful missions, the young man was starting to gain the notice of those above, particularly those in the head hunter division who were always on the lookout for people of exceptional talent. On one mission Shiv even managed to slay a small village worth of people when things went haywire and the village tried to rebel against an important feudal lord in the region. It was during this period in his life that he was approached by his mentor about becoming a jounin. Shiv was confident in his abilities but he knew he was no match for a fully-fledged jounin. If he was to be promoted to a higher rank he needed to first make sure he was ready to handle such a burden, because, in his opinion, only the strong deserve to be counted among the elite ninja known as jounin.

A year or so passed and Shiv had become a fine specimen of Kirigakure might. The once blunt tool had been sharpened from the constant butchering of enemies and by witnessing the brutality of combat. During this time, Shiv was swiftly promoted to the rank of jounin. The rank increase came with increased influence with his comrades as he was now counted among the elite in the village and there was the added benefit of having an equally impressive salary. Shiv didn't need much though; he was content with what he had and sent a great deal back to his family. However, with the extra income, he decided to move out of the merchant ring and into that of the military ring. The change was drastic, everyone seemed a bit colder, but that was exactly what he was used to. This felt more like that of his family home than that crowded apartment ever did. Here he was able to perfect his craft and slowly carve out a staggering reputation for himself in 'search and destroy' based missions. There wasn't exactly the time in his schedule to visit family, though occasionally he was able to make it back for a variety of family outings and or requests. Shiv's father, having retired now, would gloat of his son's prowess as if he was still the man responsible for such leaps in power. This, however, in turn, made Shiv a pawn of the Karagata family as he was constantly ordered to carry out the whims of those higher up in the family.

After a couple of years of completing missions and working under Kirigakure, he came face to face with a highly dangerous opponent. This event happened during the night, it was cold and gloomy when the alert came in of a breach in Kirigakure territory. It was rare to get an alert from actually within Kirigakure territory and Shiv was quick to move toward the threat. At the time Shiv thought it might be a bandit raid of some kind or maybe some large creature of the ocean, but drew a blank when he was first on the scene to meet up with one of the most infamous ninja of Kirigakure; Fushinkou, Yaku. In just a short amount of time he and the response group were utterly decimated. When Shiv awoke he was covered in wrappings, having been treated for burn injuries. The other thing Shiv found out was that he had failed to protect his homeland, costing Kirigakure a weapon of immeasurable strength. As Shiv recovered he made up his mind to hunt down those men when he was strong enough. It took a bit before Shiv regained his strength and began to take up missions again, vying to replace the weapon that died that night.

Through hard work and dedication to becoming the best, Shiv earned a reputation amongst the village. He was an exceptional ninja and there were few that could equal him in combat. His dominance over his peers and enemies was brought to the attention of the special forces who finally desired to recruit him into their organization. He was ready for what this opportunity would provide and willingly accepted their offer into the head hunter division. With higher standards of performance, he improved quickly to levels he hadn't thought possible before, becoming feared by the enemies of both Kirigakure and the Karagata. This was essentially Shiv's highest point in his career. He was in his prime with a great reputation around the village for being one of the best. There were even a couple of offers floating around to sponsor him by the merchant caste! Quite a profitable business venture. He didn't exactly need to be weighed down by anyone, and or made into an action figure for the people of the village, so he declined for the moment as he could hardly find time for anything aside from his work anyway. Everything was negligible to what he actually wanted; to become a perfect weapon without emotions distracting him from achieving his goal of killing threats that presented themselves.

However, Shiv's aim shifted when he met the love of his life. Her name was Masami, Naoko. She was also a ninja of the village and before long her affection melted his cold heart. Feelings and emotions once thought impossible became a possibility. For the first time in his life, he didn't want to solely be a weapon. That was until she was taken from him. The wound inflicted was severe, but it was quickly filled with a hate and bitterness towards everyone around him. It was at this moment he decided to close off his heart and shift back to becoming a perfect weapon. The pain Shiv had received from the death of Naoko had not even started healing fully when word reached his ear that his parents were killed by a raiding party in the waters surrounding Lightning Country. The story was that his father fought valiantly but was overwhelmed with numbers. The father had been retired for years now and died protecting his wife who was undoubtedly raped and slaughtered while he was most likely turned in dead at a foreign bounty collection agency. Both were killed like animals. This news tore Shiv apart even further, but what could he do? That was the question that burned within his head. He was powerless to save them just like in the case of Naoko. What he needed was to become a weapon, not a person that felt emotions. Without being consumed by anger, Shiv found each and every bandit that he could and slaughtered them without regard for their humanity. For these weren't people, these were blunted and rusty knives that were simply stabbing out in an attempt to be relevant in a world full of weaponry of superior quality.

After this personal vendetta was carried out, anger came flushing forward and pushed Shiv to become even stronger as he slowly forged himself back, mentally, into the weapon he had been during his prime. A combination of his lone wolf antics and skill once again brought him to the attention of the leader of head hunter division. Shiv was swiftly promoted to Lieutenant Colonel of The Hunt and Disposal Unit and before long he became the commanding officer of the division. A role he had never wanted but reluctantly accepted due to his personal investment in it. As the commanding officer of the division, he regrettably brought it into a state of mediocracy during the first few months as an acting leader. With no formal experience and or knowledge of managing an organization he had to work tirelessly at improving himself in that regard. Eventually, through hard work, he brought it back to par and recruited quite a few exceptionally talented individuals who made the division that much stronger.

Another woman came into Shiv's life now. She wasn't one of the many that he fooled around with daily, she was the lost sister of his one true love; Masami Naoko. This was troublesome for him as it conflicted with his aim of being a weapon. With his previous conviction of not allowing himself weakness, he attempted to ignore her excessively, but eventually, he opened up to the girl as she was quite persistent. That ended up being just another stab in the heart as she also died shortly after. Maybe this was his curse? When he strayed from his true aim, the people who he cared for died. It was proof that opening up again would only rip him apart and thus he became the weapon he is today. A cold individual that cares for his countrymen, but would never admit such for fear they will die as everyone eventually has. Shiv now does what he has always done; patiently await his next order...
Battle Information
Combat StyleShow
Infiltration and assassination; would be the best words to describe Shiv's particular way of fighting. Instead of directly dealing with his opponent(s), he would rather patiently wait for an opportunity to cause massive amounts of damage with either his elemental-powered attacks or martial prowess. That isn’t to say he isn’t skilled at directly dealing with an opponent if it comes to it, but prefers to finish things as quickly as possible due primarily to his low stamina pool. With that in mind having a long drawn-out skirmish is usually completely out of the question as it will surely end poorly for the champion of Kirigakure.
Abilities 1/3Show
Implanted Chakra Tubules:
Through a painful procedure chakra tubules were surgically implanted throughout the body of the user. The tubule system is crafted from metal and has been modified to be resilient to a variety of environmental factors, including low-high temperatures and conductivity. They run from arms to hands and legs to feet, ending with steel outputs that are located in the middle of his palms and feet. A peculiar trait of the tubules is that they are engraved with permanent force fuuinjutsu which gives them the uncanny ability to essentially 'lock and load' elemental energy for later use. The use of a simple kai is a catalyst to unleash the stored energy within; forcefully sending it outward through the tubule system. Shiv may only 'lock and load' one energy blast at a time. During the time stored he cannot use his tubules to channel anything else. Since the engraved fuuinjutsu is force orientated the energy used is only simplistic in nature. All of the engraved force fuuinjutsu are linked together so that they can be used in conjunction with each other if needed. Also, as with force fuuinjutsu the 'lock and load' ability cannot store anything solid, meaning the absorption portion is quite limited to only elemental affinities that are energy in nature. Lastly, the tubules also grant the user [Advanced Channeling] for use in chakra-based techniques.

This body modification was designed to aid in combat, improving efficiency by allowing the user the means to blend their physical and elemental prowess together in perfect unison. What this translates into is an overall increase in the effectiveness of the user by a modest amount when fighting at around close-mid range which is about the range that many skirmishes take place within the ninja world. Having had this operation at a young age, Shiv does occasionally experience symptoms like that of arthritis. However, the pain isn't all too excruciating but more along the lines of an annoyance. Otherwise, Shiv has become so used to the tubule system that they operated by second nature. Without them, it would feel as if Shiv had lost a piece of himself.

JutsuShow
Fuuton: Wind ReleaseShow
*Fuuton • Enhanced Launch
D-Ranked Fuuton Jutsu
After doing the needed hand seals, the user gathers wind around their feet. Then, the user will use the wind to blast them from the ground, enabling them to leap into the air an extra 10 meters at 3 extra speed. The user also has 3 less Taijutsu until they once again touch the ground. Those with less than 5 Taijutsu (after deduction) will stumble and fall when trying to land. The Fuuton passive is not applied in this technique.

*Fuuton • Wind Skating
D-Ranked Fuuton Jutsu
After performing the needed hand seals, the user is able to glide on air as if they were skating on ice. This allows them to move faster (+3 speed) but lowers their accuracy and agility (-3 Taijutsu). This doesn't allow them to fly, but rather to travel over things like land, water, and ice with greater ease. The user is only held several inches off of the ground. This Jutsu does not expire until the user’s chakra supply runs out or the user shuts it off. The fuuton passive is not applied in this technique.

[Air Cushion]
D-rank Ninjutsu
After forming a short string of hand seals, air will compact itself into a 4 meter radius "cushion" of sorts that is used to soften a fall from a great height. This won't prevent all damage but it will prevent major injury. It can be used up to twenty yards away from the user. It lasts until the end of the post it’s used in and dissipates after one use. The fuuton passive is not applied in this technique.

Anki Boushi [Safety Check]
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
By slightly charging chakra into his air tubes Shiv can force out a small amount of air pressure, clearing out most things within the passageway. This is used so his more advanced techniques don’t end up backfiring, possibly destroying his body in the process. Another use for this is when making a fire, as it can be used to fan flames easier. The fuuton passive is not applied in this technique.

[Hovering Weapon]
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Chakra Sensitive Weapon
After channeling wind chakra into the weapon, the user is able to have it hover wherever they place it. This technique can be thought of as essential if one is to do hand seals in between fighting with their weaponry. The effect only lasts for a maximum of three posts, after which the wind chakra will disperse and the weapon will fall to the ground from its stationary position. The fuuton passive is not applied in this technique.

Kasuka Zankuha [Weak Decapitating Air Wave]
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
Primarily used as a filler technique, this is the basis and most fundamental use of the air tubules. Charging his air tubules Shiv can easily create slight ‘slicing’ blasts of air that start at the palm and spread out conically for ten yards at a speed of 5. After the ten yards the blast disperses in the surrounding air. The closer the target(s) are to the wave the greater the damage done, as it is more focused when at close range then at maximum range. The push back can be resisted by an enemy(s) with a strength stat of 5 or over.

[Voice in the Distance]
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
After channeling chakra to the vocal cords, Shiv releases a breeze of wind that can travel a maximum of 20 meters away from his position. This breeze of wind acts as a speaker for his voice. Whenever he speaks his voice will be projected from the breeze of wind instead of his mouth. This is a great way to confuse people from knowing his actual position. This effect can be used for two posts or until dispelled.

[Levitate Object]
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
Shiv has developed a technique to hold objects near him by using the wind created through his tubules. To start this he simply charges his tubules and then releases wind which expands over a target, at a speed of 10, if the target does not exert a force higher then 10 strength then Shiv will be able to keep the target afloat through wind alone. This lasts for five posts or until cancelled.

[Can't Keep Me Out]
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
A skill developed by Shiv to get into places which have been locked by key. After charging his implanted air tubules, he places his palm against a lock and carefully manipulates the wind to push the required pins upward until the lock is picked, then with a simple turn the target object becomes unlocked. This technique only works on locks using a pin mechanism to open.

[Sudden Positioning]
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
By charging chakra into his air tubes, Shiv can create tightly packed circular gusts of wind at an output. These can then be used to reposition oneself on the fly or in the air when there is no place to firmly push off of to change course naturally. The small gust of wind created is actually quite powerful for the size being comparable to that of 20 strength. The circular gust ball stays at the location for three posts before dispersing into harmless air.

[Upheaval]
C-Rank Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
Shiv begins by charging his implanted air tubules. Once complete he will create a swirling current of air, five feet in radius, upon the ground up to 10 meters away from his position. This current remains dormant for five posts until either activated or stepped on. If one of those requirements are met the current of air will explode upward with the force of two explosive tags worth of cutting power. Those caught in this explosive uplift will be launched upward about 5 meters if they have a strength stat of 10 or less. If not stepped on or activated within five posts the air current will simply disperse into harmless wind.

[Wind Style: Ghost Clone]
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
Shiv begins by charging his implanted air tubules, once complete he will create a clone, from an output, out of fuuton chakra. This clone will be able to act entirely independently of the user for 5 posts before dissipating, with physical capabilities equal to the stats listed below. This clone applies the fuuton passive to enemies it touches.
  • Taijutsu: 1
  • Speed: 13
  • Strength: 6
  • Stamina: 7
[Air Breathing]
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
The user does the required hand seals before breathing outward. Once done a pocket of air will form over the mouth, this pocket of air will constantly produce oxygen for the user to breathe while also getting rid of the carbon dioxide produced naturally by the body. This technique lasts 10 posts or until cancelled. The fuuton passive is not applied in this technique.

[Offensive Positioning]
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
After charging his arm tubules, Shiv unleashes a blast of air that actually has enough kickback to push him back 10 meters. This devastating 'slicing' wave starts at the palm and spreads out conically for 10 meters at a speed of 10. The closer the target(s) are to the wave the greater the damage done, as it is more focused when at close range then at maximum range. The push back portion of the technique can be resisted if the opponent(s) have a strength stat of 10 or more.

Zankuha [Decapitating Air Wave]
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
Charging fuuton chakra into the air tubules, Shiv unleashes a blast of air. The blast of air moves outward from the palm conically for 20 meters at a speed of 10 before dispersing into the air. This particular blast is full of fuuton chakra and as such produces a devastating slicing wave of sorts. The closer the target(s) are to the wave the greater the damage done, as it is more focused when at close range then at maximum range. The push back portion of the technique can be resisted if the opponent(s) have a strength stat of 10 or more.

[Gale Shield]
B-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
Charging his implanted air tubules Shiv focuses and then sends a small compressed wind gale toward a target within 10 meters of him, on contact it expands around the target at a speed of 10 into a rotating gale of wind. At this level the gale can expand up to a maximum of 5 meters. This gale of fuuton chakra shields the target by creating a barrier of wind around the target with a durability equal to 30 strength. Once in place the shield will push back anyone/thing with a strength of 30 or less for a brief moment. The Jutsu fades after five posts if not broken or cancelled.

Ganjou Zankuha [Strong Decapitating Air Wave]
B-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
Charging fuuton chakra into the air tubules, Shiv unleashes a strong blast of air. The blast of air moves outward conically from the palm, causing a very devastating slicing “wave.” This blast moves at a speed of 20 for 20 meters before dispersing into the air. The closer the target(s) are to the wave the greater the damage done, as it is more focused when at close range then at maximum range. The push back portion of the technique can be resisted if the opponent(s) have a strength stat of 20 or more.

[Wind Prison Technique]
B-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
After either doing the required hand seals or charging his tubules, Shiv is able to produce a gale of wind in their palm that rapidly expands over a target within 2 meters at a speed of 20. This technique is used to trap a victim inside a virtually inescapable gale of wind; 2 meters in diameter. Once the target is inside, the target must have a strength higher than 20 and physically make their way out. This lasts for five posts or until cancelled.

[Wind Pillar]
B-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
Charging fuuton chakra into the air tubules, the user stirs a great amount of wind around their person. A tornado with a 10m radius will form around them at 20 speed, extending up to 30m in the air. This wall of wind is perfect for defense or trapping an opponent in an enclosed area. Anything that tries to pass through the winds will be sliced viciously with 20 strength blades of wind as sharp as katana blades. This technique lasts for 4 posts, unless released earlier.

[Pressure Damage]
B-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
Charging fuuton chakra into the air tubules, Shiv will release a large sphere of wind with a 10m radius at 20 speed, which has a maximum range of 50m. Should the target be hit within the first 30m, the attack will inflict the maximum amount of damage, causing an explosive force equivalent to 4 explosive tags, spreading cutting winds capable of slicing close to the bone over the same area. Should they be struck in the last 20m, it will only apply 3 explosive tags worth of force and range.

[Wind Style: Caster Clone]
B-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
Shiv begins by charging his implanted air tubules, once complete he will create a clone, from an output, out of fuuton chakra. This clone will be able to act entirely independently of the user for 5 posts before dissipating, with physical capabilities equal to the stats listed below. Additionally this clone has the ability to cast fuuton powered techniques. This clone applies the fuuton passive to enemies it touches.
  • Taijutsu: 3
  • Speed: 8
  • Strength: 3
  • Stamina: 13
[Embrace the Sky]
A-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
Shiv has advanced with his air tubules to the point where he has acquired the ability to essentially fly; this flight is achieved by steering with said air tubules. Shiv is able to change direction on whim while flying but moves at a speed equal to that of his control stat, to a maximum of his speed stat. To activate this ability Shiv must either do the required hand seals or channel chakra throughout his body. However, once complete he is able to freely fly or hover in the air. Flying height is limited to 30 meters above ground level in combat. This technique lasts for six posts.

*Fuuton • Flying Swallow
A-Ranked Fuuton Nintaijutsu
Prerequisite: Sharp Weapon
Focusing wind type chakra to his or her blades, the user of this technique is able to enhance the sharp quality of their wind-element chakra, invisibly extending the reach of the weapon by up to 1.5m. The cutting edge given to the weapon has a strength of 25. This technique lasts for 3 posts.

Kitsui Zankuha [Intense Decapitating Air Wave]
A-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
Charging fuuton chakra into the air tubules, Shiv unleashes an intense blast of air. The blast of air moves outward conically from the palm, causing a very devastating slicing “wave.” This blast moves at a speed of 25 for 20 meters before dispersing into the air. The closer the target(s) are to the wave the greater the damage done, as it is more focused when at close range then at maximum range. The push back portion of the technique can be resisted if the opponent(s) have a strength stat of 25 or more.

Akutibugakure [Active Camo]
A-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules, 30 Control
Shiv begins by charging his implanted air tubules. Once completed he vents out the gathered Fuuton chakra which will then proceed to coat the entirety of his body. The effect of this process makes Shiv practically invisible to the human eye by bending electromagnetic radiation around the coat of wind. To those that see this, his body will simply fade into the surrounding environment. While invisible, Shiv's is limited to a base of 25 Speed and going any faster than that will cause him to become slightly visible, as in a ripple effect. The downside of this invisibility is that it only hides Shiv from sight alone, meaning that there are multiple other ways of tracking him while invisible. This technique lasts for a total of 5 posts or until cancelled.

[Wind Walk]
S-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules, 40 Control
Shiv begins by charging his implanted air tubules. Once completed he vents out the gathered Fuuton chakra which will then proceed to coat the entirety of his body. The effect of this process makes Shiv practically invisible to the human eye by bending electromagnetic radiation around the coat of wind. To those that see this, his body will simply fade into the surrounding environment. At this level while invisible, Shiv's isn't limited by a minimum and can move at any speed. The downside of this invisibility is that it only hides Shiv from sight alone, meaning that there are multiple other ways of tracking him while invisible. This technique lasts for a total of 5 posts or until cancelled.

[Heavenly Wrath]
S-Rank Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
After charging his implanted air tubules, Shiv will raise his hands before rapidly thrusting downward, creating a heavy blast of wind anywhere within a 30 meter distance at a speed of 35. The blast of wind is 20x20 meters and exerts force downwards at a strength of 35 for 4 posts or until cancelled. While relatively simple itself, targets caught trapped beneath the wind without a way of defending themselves will find themselves decimated by the cutting wind.

Kitsui Zankuha [Intense Decapitating Air Wave]
S-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
Charging fuuton chakra into the air tubules, Shiv unleashes an intense blast of air. The blast of air moves outward conically from the palm, causing a very devastating slicing “wave.” This blast moves at a speed of 35 for 50 meters before dispersing into the air. Starting out, the wave is 2 meters in diameter and spreads to 100 meters at maximum range. The closer the target(s) are to the wave the greater the damage done, as it is more focused when at close range then at maximum range. The push back portion of the technique can be resisted if the opponent(s) have a strength stat of 35 or more.
Katon: Fire ReleaseShow
*Katon • Fireball
D-Rank Ninjutsu
After performing the correct hand seals the user draws in a deep breath before exhaling out a 1/2 meter diameter fireball at the opponent. It travels up to 10 meters away at a speed of 6 and a strength of 4.

*Katon • Torch
D-Rank Ninjutsu
After performing the correct hand seals the user will exhale a small jet of flame directly in front of them. The ball lights up the surrounding area in a 5 meter radius and has a durability of 5. Unless destroyed, it will stay locked in it's location for 5 posts before fading.

[F1]
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
After charging his tubules with Katon chakra, Shiv forms a fireball in the palm of either hand; this fireball can be thrown at a target like a standard projectile. The fireball created is about a basketball in dimensions. The difference is that this projectile explodes with the force of a single exploding tag but instead of doing concussive damage it explodes doing combustible damage, catching things on fire and causing first-degree burns. If not thrown within two posts, the ball will dissipate into the air. The fireball typically only travels 20 meters before burning out.

[Ignite]
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
Shiv starts by charging his tubules with Katon chakra then quickly touches an object after focusing the gathered chakra into his palm. The object he is touching, within a post of performing the technique, will burst into a thin fire. The fire is only hot enough to cause first-degree burns and barely that, mostly intended for rapidly burning flammable objects. The flame will last for about half a post or several seconds, depending on its use.

[S1]
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
After charging his tubules with Katon chakra, Shiv releases a stream of fire toward his target, causing first-degree burns at an approximate strength of 5. This stream has a diameter of two feet and moves for about 20 meters at a speed of 5. The peculiar thing about this technique is that it can be maintained for a maximum of three posts allowing for a constant stream of flames to be sent toward a target(s). Of course if used for longer than a single post it consumes more chakra while keeping which ever hand or hands from being used for other things such as blocking and the like.

[F2]
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
After charging his tubules with Katon chakra, Shiv forms a fireball in the palm of either hand; this fireball can be thrown at a target like a standard projectile. The fireball created is about a basketball in dimensions. The difference is that this projectile explodes with the force of two exploding tags but instead of doing concussive damage it explodes doing combustible damage, catching things on fire and causing second-degree burns. If not thrown within four posts, the ball will dissipate into the air. The fireball typically only travels 20 meters before burning out.

[S2]
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
After charging his tubules with Katon chakra, Shiv releases a stream of fire toward his target at a speed equal to that of control, causing second-degree burns at an approximate strength of 10. This stream has a diameter of two feet and moves for about 20 meters at a speed of 10. The peculiar thing about this technique is that it can be maintained for a maximum of four posts allowing for a constant stream of flames to be sent toward a target(s). Of course if used for longer than a single post it consumes more chakra while keeping which ever hand or hands from being used for other things such as blocking and the like.

*Katon • Bomb Creation
C-Rank Ninjutsu
By channeling katon chakra into any item, the user will turn it into a ticking time bomb. Either when 3 posts are up or when activated through the use of Chakra Kai, the object will explode, releasing all the katon chakra in it in a C-Rank explosion and scattering flames in the immediate area.

[F3]
B-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
After charging his tubules with Katon chakra, Shiv forms a fireball in the palm of either hand; this fireball can be thrown at a target like a standard projectile. The fireball created is about a basketball in dimensions. The difference is that this projectile explodes with the force of four exploding tags but instead of doing concussive damage it explodes doing combustible damage, catching things on fire and causing third-degree burns. If not thrown within six posts, the ball will dissipate into the air. The fireball typically only travels 20 meters before burning out.

[S3]
B-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Implanted Chakra Tubules
After charging his tubules with Katon chakra, Shiv releases a stream of fire toward his target at a speed equal to that of control, causing third-degree burns at an approximate strength of 20. This stream has a diameter of two feet and moves for about 20 meters at a speed of 20. The peculiar thing about this technique is that it can be maintained for a maximum of five posts allowing for a constant stream of flames to be sent toward a target(s).

Universal NinjutsuShow
*[Ninjutsu • Hidden Needles]
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
After performing the correct hand seals the user will focus chakra into their mouths and into up to five senbon within 3 feet of their position. The senbon will be summoned from their persons or nearby into the user's mouth, where they will be spit out aided by chakra at a speed of 6 and strength of 4. The senbon can be shot up to 7 meters away.

*[Ninjutsu • Sensory Deprivation: Sight]
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
A technique used for a variety of purposes, each unique to the user's needs, the user channels chakra over their eyes. This chakra will act as though it were solid, rendering the user blind until it is dispelled. This can be held as long as the user has chakra, but once it has ended, it has a cool-down period of 2 posts before it can be used again.

*[Ninjutsu • Sensory Deprivation: Hearing]
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
A technique used for a variety of purposes, each unique to the user's needs, the user channels chakra over their ears. This chakra will act as though it were solid, rendering the user deaf until it is dispelled. This can be held as long as the user has chakra, but once it has ended, it has a cool-down period of 2 posts before it can be used again.

[Chakra Rope]
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
A supplementary technique used to create a rope of chakra, this technique begins with a short set of hand seals. Once these have been completed, the user will hold their arms apart and form the rope between them. The rope can be variable lengths to a max of 3 meters in length. It is highly resistant to cutting by any normal object and can resist weak strength techniques quite well. The rope, while resilient, does not provide any defense and finds its use in tying up people or animals, as rope usually does. If tied by the rope one can break out of it with a strength of 5 or higher. The rope lasts for eight posts until vanishing.

[Focus]
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
A technique focused on boosting the user's control, Focus begins with a set of hand seals. Once they are completed, the user will slow down (-3 speed) in order to obtain better focus and control (+3 control) over his/her techniques. This technique lasts for three (3) posts.

[Shadow Body Change]
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
After channeling a bit of chakra through his body, Shiv will focus on the chakra within one of his shadow clones and instantly switch places with it. This technique has a maximum range of 20 meters, can only be used once per thread, and counts as one of two teleportations for the thread.

*[Ninjutsu • Multiple Chakra Kai]
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
Despite requiring both hands and more time than *[Basic Jutsu • Chakra Kai], Multiple Chakra Kai allows the user to activate up to five objects simultaneously, up to 20 + (Control/2) meters away.

[Enhanced Hearing]
C-ranked Ninjutsu
After a few hand seals the user focuses chakra into their ears, the user is then able to pick up sound better than normal, anything in a radius of 20m around the user can be heard as if the user was standing next to it. The drawback is that loud noise can cause temporary deafness. This technique lasts for five posts but can be cancelled at anytime.

*[Ninjutsu • Advanced Transformation Technique]
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
An advanced form of the Transformation Technique, after performing the correct hand seals and holding the final one temporarily, the user will coat and mold chakra around their body into the shape and form of something or someone which is no more than twice their size at a speed of 4. This technique's true advantage is that the disguise is given physical substance. This means, for example, if they transform into something with claws, they will have claws that can physically be used. For the disguises 5 post duration, if it is damaged by a hit of 16 or more strength, the disguise "poofs" from existence. This includes collateral damage caused by striking an opponent that may occur to the disguise.

[Hideous Strength]
B-Ranked Ninjutsu
A technique focused on boosting the user's strength for a short time, Hideous Strength begins with a set of hand seals. After they are completed, the user will focus chakra throughout their muscles to stimulate them. With this extra stimulation, the user has a firmer grasp over their body (+9 Strength) at the cost of their control over other techniques (-9 control). This technique lasts for (5) posts but has a minimum duration of (1) post before cancelling.

*[Ninjutsu • Shadow Clone Technique]
B-Ranked Ninjutsu
After performing the correct hand seals the user proceeds to create a number of clones of themselves (maximum is equal to 1/3rd the users stamina). Unlike the Clone Technique, these clones are actual copies of the user in both appearance and substance. The user's chakra is evenly distributed among every clone, giving each clone an equal fraction of the user's overall power. The clones are capable of performing jutsu on their own and can even bleed, but they will usually disperse after one or two solid blows. The clones will be created in roughly the same condition as the original and any experience the clones gain during their existence is transferred to the user once they are dispersed. Given that the clones are an exact replica of the user, they share the same stats except for stamina, which is determined by the number of clones presently in effect.

*[Ninjutsu • Body Flicker Technique]
A-Ranked Nintaijutsu
After channeling chakra into their body, the user enhances their movement to attack or retreat suddenly, the ninja almost instantly moves up to 20 meters on the ground in a single straight direction. While doing this, the ninja cannot move through anything or anyone, nor can they supplement it with an attack of any kind. After the quick movement has stopped, there is a brief pause where the user must recover from the movement. Even though it's not a full teleportation, this jutsu uses up one of the 2 teleportations a character can use in a single thread.
TaijutsuShow
[Ambidexterity]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Discipline
Requires: 5 Taijutsu, [Upper Body]
After extensive practice and training the practitioner has gained equal strength and skill between their two hands. This allows them to perform any action with either hand at exactly the same skill level and strength.

[Skillful Wield]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Discipline
Prerequisite: 5 Instinct, [Sword Weapons], [Projectile Weapons]
With a solid foundation of knowledge on their choice of weaponry, those with the Skillful Wield technique are able to utilize their weapon more fully. By knowing the weapon's weakest points, the user is able to avoid presenting these areas to damage during combat, thus making their weapon less likely to break by means of recklessness.

[Weapon Rotation]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite: Medium sized weaponry, [Upper Body], [Deft Hands]
A simple technique made to quickly parry incoming light projectiles. With enough warning the user can simply rotate their weapon of choice in a continuous circular motion deflecting and or parrying the incoming projectiles.

[Tracking]
D-rank Taijutsu Discipline
Prerequisite: 10 Instinct, [Perception]
Having dealt with many different types of prey, a hunter with this skill set is able to more easily track a target by simply following clues. They are able to quickly take note of broken trees, foot prints, and any indication of movement, allowing for more accurate tracking.

[Shadow Shuriken Technique]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite: User must possess shuriken of some variation, [Upper Body], [Projectile Weapons]
With little to its application, this technique requires the user to have at least two shuriken to use. When throwing the shuriken at the opponent, the user will throw another that will travel beneath the first, concealing itself within its shadow. By doing so, this allows the second shuriken to go undetected as it makes its approach toward the target. Both shuriken travel at a speed dictated by the user's strength stat unless stated otherwise. However, perceptive opponents who have an instinct greater than the user’s taijutsu may be able to see through the charade, provided they have means to do so.

[Spin]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite: [Acrobatics]
Utilized when the user is vulnerable on the ground, this technique allows him/her to get up easily while expelling nearby weapons and people. To perform Spin, the user swings their legs around above them, causing them to spin around. This subsequently knocks away the objects and people in their proximity at a strength equal to the user's while allowing the user to get to get up.

[Decisive Strike]
C-Rank Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite: 10 Taijutsu, 10 Instinct, [Sword Weapons], [Upper Body]
By applying both his taijutsu knowledge and his quick thinking Shiv is able to feint an attack. This is done by aiming an attack quickly to a side the user can block. If the target attempts to defend against it, this creates an opening in which Shiv can quickly pull back mid-swing and redirect his attack elsewhere. The main application of this jutsu was originally to strike at a user who is forming hand seals in order to cause them to break their seals to defend themselves, though it has a wide variety of applications.

[Advanced Quick Draw]
C-Rank Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite: 20 Speed, [Sword Weapons], [Projectile Weapons], [Upper Body]
The technique realizes the concept of a draw's momentum increasing attack speed rather than the technique of drawing itself. With this concept, the user draws their weapon from their sheath and then makes either an upward or downward slash followed by the opposite of the chosen slash. This causes two deep diagonal cuts in the direction of the slashes that happen near instantaneously.

[Blurred Movement]
C-Ranked Taijutsu Discipline
Prerequisite: 25 Speed, 20 Instinct, [Acrobatics]
Having trained the body at high speeds through intense training sessions, Shiv has developed a way in which to confuse his enemies. A more passive skill than anything, if Shiv is ten speed above that of his target(s) instinct, his movements and melee physical attacks take on a blur effect. This effectively makes it harder for his enemies to determine his attack pattern and or where he is about to strike.

[Enhanced Strike]
C-Ranked Taijutsu Stance
Prerequisite: 25 Taijutsu, [Sword Weapons], [Upper Body]
By focusing on his next attack, Shiv releases an excessive amount of force, forcing his weapon forward in an attempt to do greater damage. The outcome is that the attack hits harder (+6 Strength), but comes with the cost of slowing down the user (-6 Speed). This only lasts for one post, but for all intensive purposes this technique is considered a stance.

[Master Weapon Rotation]
B-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite: [Weapon Rotation], medium sized weaponry, [Upper Body], [Deft Hands]
A technique made to quickly parry incoming heavy projectiles. With enough warning the user can simply rotate their weapon of choice in a continuous circular motion deflecting and or parrying the incoming projectiles.
Senbon StyleShow
Senbon Style:
This particular style of fighting is all about precision. Why you may ask? Well senbon are not known for their stopping power. So using them with that in mind would be a fruitless endeavor, instead those that practice senbon style make use of the precise nature of the senbon to surgically strike at very small and specific points on a target. Often wearing down a target instead of outright doing lethal damage.

Requires:[Deft Hands], [Perception], [Upper Body], [Medicine], and [Projectile Weapons]
[Shadow Senbon Technique]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite: User must possess senbon of some variation
With little to its application, this technique requires the user to have at least two senbon to use. When throwing the senbon at the opponent, the user will throw another that will travel beneath the first, concealing itself within its shadow. By doing so, this allows the second senbon to go undetected as it makes its approach toward the target. Both senbon travel at a speed dictated by the user's strength stat unless stated otherwise. However, perceptive opponents who have an instinct greater than the user’s taijutsu may be able to see through the charade, provided they have means to do so.

[Tracking]
D-Rank Taijutsu Discipline
Prerequisite: 5 Instinct
This allows the user to hit a moving target so long as it is moving in a way predictable to the user. They must still take into account travel time, and sudden changes in path will still affect the outcome.

[Evasive Maneuvers]
C-Rank Taijutsu Discipline
Prerequisite: 10 Instinct
The user has learned to maintain accuracy while on the move. This allows the user to move at full speed and even change directions without interrupting their rhythm.

[Speed Analysis]
C-Ranked Taijutsu Discipline
Prerequisite: 20 Instinct, 10 Taijutsu
Analyzing his target for awhile, the user will determine if they have greater or lesser speed then the target, thus the user can determine a rough estimate as to just how fast a target is moving. Using this knowledge the user can predict the flow of combat better.

[Pressure Point Knowledge]
B-Ranked Taijutsu Discipline
Prerequisite: 20 Instinct
By studying human anatomy, the user has learned the location of pressure points and where it would be best to hit them. This knowledge is useful in the fact that it can be used in conjunction with other techniques to target specific areas for additional effects, however, without those other techniques the user may find it hard to actually put this knowledge into practice.

[Loss of Speed]
A-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite: 25 Taijutsu, Senbon, [Anatomy Knowledge]
Using pinpoint accuracy and a senbon needle, the user attempts to strike at the pressure points (located in the elbow, forearm, thigh, and or bicep) dealing with speed, on impact with any of the pressure points mentioned the opponent will feel a sudden loss in speed (-9), for the next five posts.

JutsuShow
Arts of MedicineShow
Arts of Medicine:
This user has educated themselves in traditional medicine, and is able to treat and care for wounds in methods taught to medicine men and doctors that don't utilize chakra.
Requires: [Medicine] and [Deft Hands] Concentrations
*[Medicinal Style • Bandage Wrapping]
D-rank Taijutsu Maneuver
The user knows how to utilize bandages, wrapping a wound in a manner that creates a near-perfect barrier from external forces, keeping the wound clean from bacteria. The bandage is tucked in place, preventing it from falling off, though excessive rubbing, pulling, or getting the bandage wet can cause it to fall off.

*[Medicinal Style • Wound Cleanse]
D-rank Taijutsu Discipline
The user knows how to use sterile water or alcohol to clean out a wound, destroying any bacteria in the would to prevent infection.

*[Medicinal Style • Injury Assessment]
D-rank Taijutsu Discipline
Unlike the mystical means of diagnosis utilized through iijutsu, those who utilize the Arts of Medicine must learn the most effective manner to assess a patient. Learners of this discipline have learn the most effective manner to diagnose a patient, starting at the head, and assessing for head wounds, then moving down through the torso, both arms, the groin area, both legs, then the back. Those who learn this discipline will be able to account for any wounds that present with physical symptoms on a patient.

*[Medicinal Style • Pressure Points]
D-rank Taijutsu Discipline
The user has learned all appropriate pressure points on a body. In the event of bleeding, they know where to apply pressure to slow the bleeding while treatment is administered.

*[Medicinal Style • Antidote]
C-rank Taijutsu Maneuver
In the case of injected venoms and poisons, the user is able to assess the site of injection, and properly cut off circulation, and roll veins, to force out the poison or venom. So long as they begin within the first post of injection, they can prevent the effects of the venom or poison.

*[Medicinal Style • Medic]
C-rank Taijutsu Discipline
Perhaps one of the most important disciplines of any aspiring Medic, one who has mastered this Discipline can maintain a clear mind when treating patients. Techniques C-rank and below that effect their emotional spectrum, or attempts at distracting them will have no effect while they are treating patients.

*[Medicinal Style • Stitching]
C-rank Taijutsu Maneuver
Through the use of the proper tools, the use is able to stitch close most minor and moderator wounds, preventing the furthering of infection and deterioration of that wound.

*[Medicinal Style • Priority]
B-rank Taijutsu Discipline
When faced with multiple patients, one who has mastered this discipline is able to rapidly assess multiple patients and determine priority of their individual injuries, and the totality of their injuries to determine which require the highest priorities, and which can survive with delayed care. An additional benefit of this discipline is that one who has mastered it is always able to determine whether a patient is alive or dead, unless they are under the effects of A-rank or higher techniques designed to make them appear dead.

*[Medicinal Style • Comfort]
B-rank Taijutsu Maneuver
Through the use of acupuncture and their knowledge of pressure points, the user is able to quickly apply a series of pricks, leaving the needles in, that dulls pain in localized areas of the body, or even the entire body. This method only isolates pain receptors, not other receptors, allowing someone under the effects of this technique to continue to function. The pain dulling effects will last for up to 5 posts, at which points the needles will have to be removed then replaced.

*[Medicinal Style • Anatomy]
A-rank Taijutsu Discipline
One who has mastered this discipline has an near unparalleled comprehension of anatomy and physiology. They are able to locate even the smallest of veins in any person, regardless of variances in shape or size. This knowledge extends to chakra systems, nervous systems, and anything else. Much of this knowledge extends into the biology of non-human species as well, though with less precision. This discipline, combined with enough accuracy, can turn even the simplest of attacks into a fatal blow.
Machete StyleShow
Machete Style:
Being an unbalanced weapon, one can’t fence with the machete but rather must rely on fast footwork and evasive body movement as the first line of defense, while parrying and blocking remains a less preferred mode of use (but still has its place). A machete can be used at an extended range as well as in close quarters when the second hand comes into play for controlling the opponent.

Requires: [Acrobatics], [Uppper Body], and [Sword Weapons]
[Chop]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
The user arcs their machete and chops at their target. Instead of a slash attack commonly associated with the machete, this attack places all of the impact at the point of contact to literally chop the target into two pieces. Though useful in multiple instances the effectiveness of the chop can be seen most prominently when taking off the limbs of people who underestimate the simple strike.

[Pull Away]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Discipline
Prerequisite:
When a slash makes contact with a target the user has learned the value of pulling the blade downward and away slightly to increase the effectiveness of the slash. This is a simple technique taught to new practitioners using a machete but the result of such training speaks for itself.

[Slash]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
The user arcs their machete and slashes at their target in an attempt to hit a large surface area. This can be done in a variety of different directions and can be quite devastating to those that are impacted by the blade as the wound is often quite deep and runs across wherever it connected.

[Pivot Mon]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
In the case the Shiv needs to rapidly switch directions or move away from something without losing speed, by planting his next step firmly, Shiv will pivot on it allowing him to redirect himself and continue on his path without losing any speed. This is particularly useful for performing feints.

[Step Back Chop]
C-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite: [Chop], 10 Speed
When a target approaches and makes a swing-like attack at the user they will simply step back from the attack while countering with a sudden arc chop aimed at the limb of whatever attacked them first. The limb is chosen because the target usually has their limb outstretched for their attack making it so an attack to the limb is more likely to succeed.

[Hack Dem Apart]
C-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite: [Slash], [Chop], 10 Taijutsu, 10 Instinct
After carefully analyzing their opponent’s movements and defense, the user then moves into close quarters, making use of the strikes learned previously they attack rapidly with a barrage of purposeful strikes at any weak point that presents itself. This applies to fleshy points on the body, an opening in a taijutsu, or the short period of time used while performing hand seals. In the event that any of these points are successfully taken advantage of, the user will continue to follow up with more strikes, attempting to inflict as much damage in the opening as possible.

[Snap Cut]
C-Ranked Taijutsu Stance
Prerequisite: 10 Taijutsu
Using the wrist as pivot point the user goes in for a rapid slash with little movement coming from one's elbow or shoulder, in effect the attack is much faster (+6 Speed), but also much weaker (-6 Strength). This only lasts for one post, but for all intensive purposes this technique is considered a stance.

[Machete Stance]
C-Ranked Taijutsu Stance
Prerequisite: 20 Taijutsu, Machete
Holding their machete at around chest level the user moves into a stance focused on improving their ability to react. The stance requires the user to spread their legs about shoulder length apart and position their body parallel with their chest facing their target. This stance heavily relies on fast footwork and evasive body movement as a first line of defense while also making use of the same concept to improve the offensive ability of the user. This stance increases the ability to react (+6 Instinct), but significantly reduces strength (-6 Strength). While in this stance the user may only use nintaijustu or taijutsu associated with a machete.

[Close Fight Mon]
B-rank Taijutsu Discipline
Prerequisite: 20 Instinct
When in an enclosed area many sword fighters find themselves limited by space which makes it difficult to use full force when attacking. With this discipline, the practitioner has gained sufficient experience fighting in tight spaces to the point that they are no longer troubled by enclosed space, meaning that the practitioner will be proficient in making quick, deadly strikes without sacrificing any power.

[Hack Dem Stance]
B-Ranked Taijutsu Stance
Prerequisite: [Machete Stance], 25 Taijutsu, Machete
Holding their machete at around chest level the user moves into a stance focused on improving their ability to react. The stance requires the user to spread their legs about shoulder length apart and position their body parallel with their chest facing their target. This stance heavily relies on fast footwork and evasive body movement as a first line of defense while also making use of the same concept to improve the offensive ability of the user. This stance increases the ability to react (+9 Instinct), but significantly reduces strength (-9 Strength). While in this stance the user may only use nintaijustu or taijutsu associated with a machete.

[Keep on De Target]
S-Ranked Taijutsu Discipline
Prerequisite: 35 Instinct, [Perception]
Shiv has trained himself beyond what many consider possible. His mind is now perceptive enough to notice the smallest of detail when his intent is focused solely on that particular target or the like. Recollection of these details can be thought of as if he had seen them just a moment ago. What this does in regard to combat, is make it so that he can expertly predict the flow of combat as if time had seemingly slowed down. As long as he has a higher instinct stat then that of a combat stat he can get a read on it which allows him time to mentally prepare or anticipate whatever it is that he is focused upon. An opponent which is far slower than Shiv's (Instinct+Taijutsu/2), will be seen as if they were moving at 2/3rd their speed. This is only in accordance to comprehension of what is happening before him, meaning that he may not always be capable of keeping up with the opponent(s).
Silent Fighter StyleShow
Silent Fighter Style:
The Silent Fighter style is a style made of two types of techniques. One type which focuses on masking the sounds the user makes through both passive and active techniques that minimize motion, and the sounds made from movement. And a second type which is primarily passive techniques that teach the user how to hone their hearing to recognize and localize sounds.
Requires:[Stealth] & [Perception]
[Stop and Listen]
D-ranked Taijutsu Stance
The user will stop moving and take a deep breath, focusing on all the sounds they hear. So long as they are not moving, the user will be able to pick-up on the footsteps of anyone moving within 20 feet of them, unless they are using a specialized technique to mask the sound of their movement. Areas with loud noises or crowds of people will throw off the success of this technique.

[Keep Quiet]
D-ranked Taijutsu Discipline
The user has learned to move silently, and does not produce any sound when walking. They cannot be heard unless a person listening for them has a specialized hearing technique.

[Just Listen]
C-ranked Taijutsu Discipline
Any time the user is moving, they have trained themselves to be attuned to the sound of people moving. This passive technique allows the user to differentiate the sounds of multiple people to determine how many people are in a given area even if he can’t see them. Loud noises, or large quantities of people will throw off the success of this technique.

[Projectile Whistles]
C-ranked Taijutsu Discipline
The user has attuned their hearing to the sound of things moving through the air. This allows them to hear projectiles flying at them from a general location, even if they can’t see them. This technique does not work in enclosed areas where sounds bounce off walls/doors/windows/etc.

[Very Quiet]
B-ranked Taijutsu Discipline
Whenever the user is moving at full speeds, they won’t be able to be heard moving unless the person has a jutsu to better their hearing. If the user sticks to walking, they won’t be able to be heard regardless of advanced hearing techniques.

[Heartbeat]
A-ranked Taijutsu Discipline
The user has attuned their hearing to the sound of heartbeats. This allows them to locate anything with a heartbeat within 15 feet of his person, so long as there is not an excessive amount of noise in the area.
Heavenly TaijutsuShow
[Wind Scar]
A-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite: [Sword Weapons], [Heavenly Body Control]
The user starts by focusing on their next swing, once ready the user will swing their weapon with such sheer power and speed that the very air is pushed forward 30 meters. This is not ordinary air however, instead the utter power behind the swing conditioned it into three palpable blades of air, each blade measuring about 10 meters in size, capable of cleaving whatever they strike into chunks. These blades of air strike and move at a strength equal to the user's and after 30 meters the blades dissipate back into harmless air.

[Wind Wall]
A-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite: [Sword Weapons], [Heavenly Body Control]
The user starts by focusing on their next swing, once ready the user will slash forward horizontally with such sheer power and speed that the very air is pushed forward creating a wall of pure wind, measuring 15 meters in diameter, meant to protect the user from a variety of different threats. This wall stops within 10 meters of the user. Even though the wall is made up entirely of air the force behind the slash compresses the air so tightly that the wall can actually take quite the hit, having a strength equal to that of the user's, before dissipating back into air.

[Full Metal Jacket]
A-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite: 35 Taijutsu, Senbon, [Anatomy Knowledge], [Heavenly Body Control]
The user takes a standard senbon needle and transforms it into a horrifying weapon of death that can pierce through almost anything. The user starts by focusing on their next strike, once ready they will release the senbon toward the target with both expert precision and sheer force that the senbon keenly pierces straight through an obstacle as if it were nothing. The reason why this is so deadly is that the power has been so tightly packed into the tip of the projectile that it can get away with not having to deal with the general surface area which usually is what makes a defense quite powerful. The downside to this technique is that the attack is all about precision as it can only damage things in relation to the size of the senbon thrown. Chakra based or an enhanced defense will still be able to resist the technique as normal.

[Shadow Wind Strike]
S-ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Requires: [Heavenly Body Control], [Sword Weapons], 50 Speed, 50 Taijutsu
Shiv focuses on a location within 40 meters of him that paths directly through a single target in a straight line. There can be no obstructions aside from that sole target or Shiv will be inflicted with blunt damage, equal to his speed, to the entirety of his body. Once ready, Shiv pushes off from the ground sending him flying instantaneously toward the target location equal to his speed. Additionally, during the maneuver he makes one direct slash at the target; center mass. The sheer velocity is utterly inconceivable that it can be said to be purely on the level of tightening space itself. This goes toward the teleportation limit in a single thread.

[Heavenly Strike]
S-ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Requires: [Heavenly Body Control], [Sword Weapons], 50 Speed, 50 Taijutsu
Shiv pushes off from the ground sending him flying upward rapidly, once reaching the pinnacle of ascension he slashes the air instantaneously causing an immense amount of static electricity that directly envelops his blade forming into a bolt of lightning that then surges toward a target at a speed equal to 1/2th Shiv's strength. The bolt of lightning strikes the target at that same strength while also spreading to all those in a vicinity of 50 meters, causing third degree electrical burns to all those struck.

[Paralysis Strike]
S-ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Requires: [Heavenly Body Control], 40 Taijutsu, 50 Speed
Shiv pushes off from the ground sending him flying instantaneously toward a target equal to his speed. The frightening acceleration from the action causes an immense amount of static electricity to build up enveloping him in the process. Shiv will then strike a target instantly transferring all stored electrical energy which diffuses throughout organic matter causing complete paralysis for 5 posts, which can be resisted with a (strength+stamina)/2 of 39 or above. If used on inorganic matter, the stored electrical energy will diffuse through whatever struck to apply a shocking effect to the object. Whoever comes in contact with said matter will suffer localized paralysis to the portion touched. This shocking effect lasts for 5 posts on the diffused object until fading away.

[Graviton Surge]
S-ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Requires: [Heavenly Body Control], [Projectile Weapons], 50 Taijutsu
The user starts by focusing on their next strike, once ready they will release a projectile toward a target location. The projectile is thrown with such monstrous torque that the projectile remains directly connected with the open hand via the the air between the two. During flight the user may at anytime close their hand abruptly to suddenly create an implosion of force around the projectile. Anything within the 20 meter diameter around the projectile will be pulled toward it at a strength equal to 2/5th the user. Those with a strength equal or greater can resist the sudden pull of the technique. Anything that disrupts this linear point of contact between the hand and projectile will disrupt the technique cancelling out the effect.
Lock and LoadShow
[Lock and Load: Minor Fuuton Blast]
D-Ranked Storage & Force Fuuinjutsu
Prerequisite: [Fuuton Affinity], [Storage & Force Fuuinjutsu], Implanted Chakra Tubules
Shiv starts by charging the force fuuinjutsu engraved upon his tubules, once complete he stores the built up fuuton energy within the tubule system for later use.

"Once I master myself, I will hopefully master the enemy..."

General Information Age: 24
Gender: Male
Height: 5'8
Weight: 160 lbs
Physical FeaturesShow
Jhin is perfect in almost every way imaginable. Combined with the fox features granted to him by merging with a spiritual fox he is considered to be quite the sight for sore eyes. With the merging came a set of fox-like ears and a tail. These being pretty much standard after a merge. Over the years he has grown a total of three tails which is also a sign of strength within the Tsukino house. With the house being so new many of the families don't share much of a resemblance, but that doesn't matter too much to Jhin as he is fine with the way he turned out. However, being too unique does make him question the whole merge process as it kind of breaks away from what a united house could accomplish if everyone started thinking like that of a major clan. With that in mind he doesn't look down on his non-merged brethren for in the end they are all family that share the same surname.

The skin tone and hair of Jhin is quite fair even for one from Kirigakure no Sato. That wasn't always the case. For when he was a kid it seemed as though he would develop bright golden hair, but due to the merging with a white fox, he became quite paler. The once golden hair had all but vanished becoming almost as white as snow. At a younger age, that coloration change was annoying as mostly only older people had white hair, but after a few years he accepted the change. With a lighter skin tone than most he doesn't enjoy being in the sun for long periods of time because his skin burns quite easily, thus you will hardly catch him unclothed even during the hottest of days.

Jhin hardly has any scars or the like due to him being mostly a supportive type of ninja which is great for him as he doesn't have to worry about all the anxieties that go with being a brute looking man. With that in mind, people can easily tell the man isn't a fighter due to his scrawny looking appearance; looking more feminine than most his age. Despite this, Jhin isn't that weak. Underneath that scrawny frame is a toned body capable of intense bouts of physical exertion. On closer inspection, you can see he is quite the healthy and fit individual, fully capable of standing toe to toe with many of the more brutish men in the village.

The one notable feature standing above everything else are Jhin's teeth. Jhin has a set of teeth that are quite distinguishable from most normal people outside of Kirigakure no Sato. This unique trait is that his teeth have been sharpened to a point to achieve more of a fox-like appearance. Being actually quite sharp they are perfect for chewing up tough meat or through rope or the like if ever caught in a predicament requiring such a odd trait. Usually the sharp teeth act as an intimidation factor around the village, but when people look at Jhin they can't take him seriously often saying he is too cute.
Clothing/AccessoriesShow
Traditional dress is the expectation of one coming from the Tsukino house, thus Jhin has accepted this reality by donning an orange colored yukata. He has come to enjoy the benefits associated with dressing light. With this is mind, he has also adopted geta for more casual times that don't call for combat or strenuous activity. The comfort they provide is heavenly, while also allowing him to be much more accessible for when he lounges around. That was probably the primary reason for him adopting such dress for comfort and feeling like you're free is a must. Either way, these have become a staple, especially when paired with a variety of wrappings and the like to keep him warm. During HHD missions, Jhin wears a standard white operator mask with slits for eyes. The decoration upon the mask is composed of five orange colored teeth centered around where his actual teeth would be! This masks does its job by hiding his true identity while outside the village.
PersonalityShow
  • General: Jhin is a person that cares too much about what people think. He cannot separate his own thoughts from those of the people around him, especially people that own him. Own him, meaning, that they are quite influential in his life to the point that he doesn't want to let them down because they believe in him, even if he doesn't, nor does he want to appear as somebody completely worthless. Everything he does is usually based upon what is expected of him. His dress, his speech, his actions, everything has already been seemingly decided by the people around him. Appearance is everything. Being seen as perfect is the epitome of what Jhin values.

    Those that know Jhin beyond that of the facade will say he is cold, almost as if to remain true to being the killer he is supposed to be. In essence, this is sort of true, as he tries to keep up an appearance, but beneath that, he does care about the people close to him when he isn't caught up with pretending to be somebody he isn't. That is the sole reasoning it is so hard for him to make friends and the like. He doesn't know how to be real. People generally come off as fake to him as he has had to feign those actions before. When he does attempt to be sincere, he second guesses himself, thinking that he is coming off as cheesy or fake.

    Since Jhin doesn't have many social skills, he can come off as quite the playful or teasing individual, but really this is only used to hide the fact he can't maintain something genuine or real, because of it feeling too forced and or fake. When this gets to be too much or he is forced into a corner because of his jesting he usually attempts to play it off with yet another joke or becomes unresponsive altogether. If things get tough that is exactly what he'll do; shut down completely till everything calms down or is forgotten. Not the best method of dealing with stress or conflict, but it has gotten him through everything thus far, so there isn't a reason to really change yet.
  • Fears: These expectations seemingly control Jhin as he crumbles underneath the weight of them all. There is a real fear within him that he cannot handle everything people expect of him and because of that fear he doesn't even attempt to do anything for himself besides what is needed to maintain face. The majority of his persona is a farce, he wears the mask of who or what he is expected to be. His true persona only being revealed to those he has come to trust. But, even his true persona is somewhat of a joke. Jhin is almost like a blank slate, lacking confidence and or the ability to be decisive with anything.
  • Likes: Due to Jhin's personality, he does find enjoyment in writing or acting. It is a time that he shines! He is good at it because that is what he basically does every day. That and the chance to be another person is exhilarating. Living another life takes him out of the reality of his own situation for the time he partakes. In his spare time, you can find him either in front of a good book or in the midst of crumpled paper as he strives to write about anything his heart desires.
  • Combat Mentality: In a conflict situation Jhin will do what he usually does and try to avoid it, but if that isn't possible he will do his best to resolve whatever is in front of him. The facade usually comes in handy here as he just acts how he would be expected to. So in terms of work, he works hard to look good. Coming off as lazy, incompetent, or stupid won't fit with his image and because of that, he needs to at least seem like he works hard on the work given to him. Even if that work does not align with what he actually wants out of life. What is that exactly? Not even he knows too lost and scared with everything around him to make such a life-changing decision.

Abilities and Concentrations
Abilities
Kitsune no KaoShow
After merging with a fox, a Tsukino inherits many of the fox’s own physical features and potential. This takes the form of a few the fox's features, namely a pair of fox-like ears and fox-like tails which multiply as their own powers grow (3 tails at Chuunin, 5 at Jounin, 9 at Bannin or Kage).

The main ability of these foxes, however, are their extrasensory systems. A Tsukino’s ears are laced with vibration sensitive fur that forms the basis of a network of sensory paths in their brain, allowing them to feel the nearby vibration as a form of sonar-sight. This works only in a small space around them but is greatly enhanced by nearby water as the liquid vibrations carry clearly to their ears, allowing them to hear disturbances to water especially well. Even masses of the vapor such as mist transmit such vibrations well.

Without adequate water, a Tsukino’s sense extends around them for (Instinct/3) meters and can form rudimentary shapes and images in that radius but no further. Vibrations caused by water being interacted with, or vibrations traveling through water, can project much further and more clearly, up to (Instinct/2) meters out.

This advantage comes with its own downside. Much as a normal person can be blinded by intense light a Tsukino’s sense can be temporarily shorted out by intense noises. Techniques that cause conflicting vibration can also dampen their senses, but these can be overcome using techniques.
Concentrations
Ninjutsu 3/3Show
Mist Release:
Mist Release
A character with this concentration is able to utilize Mist, an extension composed of Fuuton and Suiton, and can make and use any custom or archived jutsu that require Mist. Mist has an encroaching effect. You must be a former or present Kiri shinobi and have both Suiton and Fuuton to utilize this concentration.
Passive (Encroaching)Show
Mist naturally encroaches. This causes all mist jutsu to grow over time. Mist jutsu will passively grow at 1/10th their size per post, allowing them to not only become larger but also refill areas within themselves that have been displaced. While Mist has limited offensive power, it's a supplementary superpower that can completely alter the course of battle by manipulating the battlefield, and the people on it.
Suiton:
Suiton Affinity
A character with this concentration is able to utilize Suiton, and can make and use any custom or archived jutsu that require the Suiton affinity. Suiton has a passive enveloping effect.
Passive (Enveloping)Show
Suiton's effect is enveloping, meaning that suiton passively surrounds anything that it makes contact with. Suiton techniques that do not last over periods of times (i.e, exploding techniques) drench their opponents, but long term techniques will envelop anything they come in contact with and maintain a hold on it with the 3/4th strength of the technique, rounded down. This means that if a suiton wave is shot forward with 17 strength, it will envelope and move anything with it that does not have more than 12 strength to resist it. This allows Suiton to fill a very powerful role in eliminating tools from opponent's access and capturing targets.
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 1/3rd the strength of the technique rounded down unless otherwise stated. This means if someone punched a 19 strength fuuton wall, they would get cuts on their hand applied with 6 strength. This also means that fuuton jutsu specifically designated to cut things can create devastating wound by essentially striking twice.

Jutsu
NinjutsuShow
FuutonShow
*Fuuton • Enhanced Launch
D-Ranked Fuuton Jutsu
After doing the needed hand seals, the user gathers wind around their feet. Then, the user will use the wind to blast them from the ground, enabling them to leap into the air an extra 10 meters at 3 extra speed. The user also has 3 less Taijutsu until they once again touch the ground. Those with less than 5 Taijutsu (after deduction) will stumble and fall when trying to land. The Fuuton passive is not applied in this technique.

*Fuuton • Wind Skating
D-Ranked Fuuton Jutsu
After performing the needed hand seals, the user is able to glide on air as if they were skating on ice. This allows them to move faster (+3 speed) but lowers their accuracy and agility (-3 Taijutsu). This doesn't allow them to fly, but rather to travel over things like land, water, and ice with greater ease. The user is only held several inches off of the ground. This Jutsu does not expire until the user’s chakra supply runs out or the user shuts it off. The fuuton passive is not applied in this technique.
Mist StyleShow
*Hidden Mist Technique
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Kiri-nin
Kirigakure no Jutsu is a Ninjutsu technique utilized by Hidden Mist Ninja. After forming the required hand seals, the ninja creates a blanket of mist which covers the area around them. The mist covers 20x20x20m area. The mist limits the visibility of those inside to 4 meters in any direction. This technique lasts a number of posts equal to 1/2 the user's stamina.

*Fading Mist Technique
D-Rank Ninjutsu
After performing the correct hand seals, the user can control the transparency of the mist to become much more lucid or clear in a 2x2x2m area. If this is used on a blanket of mist with another's chakra within it, it requires a higher control stat than the caster. This increased visibility lasts for up to 3 posts.

*Mist Bath
D-rank Ninjutsu
While inside the mist, the user will form a series of hand seals, then hold a hand forward. From their hand 5 marble sized bullets of mist will form and shoot forward through the mist at 5 speed, with 5 strength.

*Thick Mist
C-rank Ninjutsu
While inside the mist, the user will perform the correct seals and clasp their hands to initiate the jutsu. The water will increase and substantially grow in thickness. This will make anything that enters or is within the mist experience -3 speed so long as they are inside it. This technique lasts 4 posts.

*Shrouding Mist Technique
C-rank Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Hidden Mist Technique
After forming the required hand seals, the ninja creates a blanket of mist which covers the area around them. The mist covers 30x30x30m area. The mist limits the visibility of those inside to 3 meters in any direction, and dampens scents, weakening any advanced scent techniques, or controlled scent techniques by 2m. This technique lasts a number of posts equal to the user's 1/2 stamina.

*Concealing Mist Technique
B-rank Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: *Shrouding Mist Technique
After forming the required hand seals, the ninja creates a blanket of mist which covers the area around them. The mist covers 40x40x40m area. The mist limits the visibility of those inside to 2 meters in any direction, and dampens scents, weakening any advanced scent techniques, or controlled scent techniques by 2m. Additionally, sound is dampened as well, which can make it more difficult to communicate plans through the mist without advanced hearing techniques. This technique lasts a number of posts equal to the user's 1/2 stamina.
TaijutsuShow
TaijutsuShow
[Keep Quiet]
D-ranked Taijutsu Discipline
Requires: [Perception]
The user has learned to move silently, and does not produce any sound when walking. They cannot be heard unless a person listening for them has a specialized hearing technique.

[Ambidexterity]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Discipline
Requires: 5 Taijutsu, [Upper Body]
After extensive practice and training the practitioner has gained equal strength and skill between their two hands. This allows them to perform any action with either hand at exactly the same skill level and strength.
Senbon StyleShow
Senbon Style:
This particular style of fighting is all about precision. Why you may ask? Well senbon are not known for their stopping power. So using them with that in mind would be a fruitless endeavor, instead those that practice senbon style make use of the precise nature of the senbon to surgically strike at very small and specific points on a target. Often wearing down a target instead of outright doing lethal damage.

Requires: [Deft Hands], [Perception], and [Projectile Weapons]
[Shadow Senbon Technique]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite: User must possess senbon of some variation
With little to its application, this technique requires the user to have at least two senbon to use. When throwing the senbon at the opponent, the user will throw another that will travel beneath the first, concealing itself within its shadow. By doing so, this allows the second senbon to go undetected as it makes its approach toward the target. Both senbon travel at a speed dictated by the user's strength stat unless stated otherwise. However, perceptive opponents who have an instinct greater than the user’s taijutsu may be able to see through the charade, provided they have means to do so.

[Evasive Maneuvers]
C-Rank Taijutsu Discipline
Prerequisite: 10 Instinct
The user has learned to maintain accuracy while on the move. This allows the user to move at full speed and even change directions without interrupting their rhythm.

[Projectile Whistles]
C-ranked Taijutsu Discipline
The user has attuned their hearing to the sound of things moving through the air. This allows them to hear projectiles flying at them from a general location, within 10 meters, even if they can’t actually see them. This technique does not work in enclosed areas where sounds bounce off walls/doors/windows/etc.

[Speed Analysis]
C-Ranked Taijutsu Discipline
Prerequisite: 20 Instinct, 10 Taijutsu
Analyzing his target for awhile, the user will determine if they have greater or lesser speed then the target, thus the user can determine a rough estimate as to just how fast a target is moving. Using this knowledge the user can predict the flow of combat better.
Predator's InstinctShow
Predator's Instinct:
Jhin, being a merged Tsukino, is more in tune with his senses than most in the village. Taking advantage of this merging process, Jhin has developed a style focusing on enhancing the senses of scent and sound. Using these enhanced senses, Jhin takes on a more animal inspired role to hunting a target. So it doesn't come as a shock that many of the techniques in the style revolve around tracking; perfect for those in a supportive role assisting with 'search and destroy' objectives.
Requires: [Perception]
[Baseline Scent]
D-Rank Taijutsu Discipline
By focusing on a residual scent that has pooled in the area, Jhin becomes able to track this scent over great distances. Residual scents are those that are slightly more intense than the natural scent of the area and are most common in light but unbandaged wounds, burnt or seared clothes and the like. Jhin must focus on these scents but are able to perform other actions during the tracking without sacrificing any speed or dexterity, only requiring a short amount of time between movements to regain the scent. Targets must have been standing in the area Jhin begins tracking for at least a post or a scenting object must be used such as a personal belonging. This can be used to track through other odors but high winds or going through water will lose the scent. Very strong odors or areas dense in various scents make things a little more complicated and result in either taking more concentration or plain losing the scent.

[Gender Scent]
D-Rank Taijutsu Discipline
Males and females naturally give off different pheromones which affect their natural scent. Jhin's sense of smell is so honed that he can determine if someone is male or female by their scent alone, though this can be more difficult if they are covering their scent with something like perfume.

[Faint Scent]
C-Rank Taijutsu Discipline
Inhaling deeply of a specific scent and focusing on it, Jhin becomes able to track this scent over great distances. Faint scents are the layered, complicated scents such as sweat, sparks, treated wood and oftentimes are hard to distinguish even for canines. During the tracking of these scents it is often hard for Jhin to focus on other things and he can easily lose the scent, so avoiding combat is required. Targets must have been standing in the area Jhin begins tracking them from for at least a post or a scenting object such as a personal object must be used to begin tracking. Water, wind and strong scents do not inhibit this level of tracking individually, but when used together they will block scent.

[Primal Nose]
B-Rank Taijutsu Discipline
After utilizing his nose and training his sense of smell for so long, Jhin has become able to tap his sense of smell to its most refined and most bestial. Jhin is able to pick out the most common scents and focus on the freshest ones in an area of 10 meters around him. By doing this Jhin is able to tell the amount of individual humans, animals or creatures and the most intense smells of each person, including if they were injured or if they were tired by gauging sweat levels. Jhin can then track these groups of scents with relative ease.
GenjutsuShow
[A Flying Pup]
D-Ranked Illusion Genjutsu
After doing the required hand seals, the user then triggers the illusion by raising one of his arms. From within his sleeve a single fox emerges, lunging towards the target. Used primarily as a distraction, the fox doesn’t have much else to it but can be used to cover an approaching projectile. Once close enough the fox will attempt to bite and scratch the target, but without any pain coming from such. This illusion will last for three posts or until cancelled.

[Incoming Senbon]
D-Ranked Illusion Genjutsu
After doing the needed hand seals, Nakigara throws a senbon at a target. If they see this, they will feel a senbon strike them. This doesn't cause any actual damage. The pain and the false senbon last for three posts or until cancelled.

[Decoy Effect]
D-Ranked Illusion Genjutsu
After doing the needed hand seals, the target will be inducted into the genjutsu. With the hand seals being the trigger. Those inducted see a clone of the user and each of the user's teammates appear next to them, using jutsu. The jutsu that they are casting is completely meaningless, though. These clones stay there for 4 posts or until they are damaged.

*[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 • When Foxes Fly]
D-Ranked Illusion Genjutsu
A rather simple genjutsu that is put into place when the user says a statement ending in "When Foxes Fly". Seconds later, anyone who hears the user say that will see several foxes with full hawk wings fly past, just a few feet above the user and the victim’s head, serving as a somewhat confusing distraction.

[Pop Smoke]
C-ranked Illusion Genjutsu
Jhin will channel chakra into one of the tags at his waist, initiating this genjutsu in anyone who sees the tag. Within the next three posts, Jhin can snap. Anyone who hears the snap will see the tag explode into a 30x30x30m cloud of smoke. While within the smoke, vision is limited to 4m. Because its illusionary, the limits in vision exist regardless of advanced or unique sight modifiers. This smoke remains in place for 4 posts, then disappears as if it's "settled"

*[Genjutsu • Doubt]
C-Ranked Status Genjutsu
The user will do a series of hand seals, then whistle, initiating the genjutsu in anyone who hears the whistle. For the next three posts, the victims of this technique will feel tinges of doubt when listening to other people talk. While the doubt isn't strong, it creates a slight feeling that can be used to dissuade them from following instructions of other people if utilized properly.

[Social Desirability Bias]
C-Ranked Status Genjutsu
After doing the needed hand seals, Jhin says "You can trust me." Those that hear this will feel as if Jhin is a friend that is trying to help them out, as long as he doesn't do anything to the contrary. This makes them more willing to listen to him, assuming it isn't harmful to themselves. This lasts for six posts.

[Dramatic Fox Distraction]
C-Ranked Illusion Genjutsu
If the user comes under attack, they can use this technique to cover their escape. After forming the needed hand seals, the user's body will disperse into a skulk of foxes which in this case is about twenty. Watching the hand seals being made is the trigger for the Genjutsu. The foxes will confuse and distract the opponent while the user escapes or hides. This technique lasts for a single post.

[Howl of the Fox]
B-Ranked Illusion Genjutsu
An auditory genjutsu developed by Jhin, after doing the needed hand seals the user lets out a piercing screech like that of a fox, all who hear the screech become trapped within the genjutsu. Almost instantaneously after hearing the screech, the scream picks up in intensity. These screeches are intense, feeling almost as if the victims’ ears are about to burst. Imagine hearing nails screeching against a blackboard with a loudspeaker in front of it. This lasts for five posts or until cancelled.

History
Historical AccountsShow
Jhin was born into the renowned Tsukino house, thus he inherited allegiance to the Muramasa family from his parents. His father and mother were so happy when he was born that they seemingly forgot the tensions that had almost ripped their relationship apart before the pregnancy. To them, he was the one to keep everything from falling apart. That was hard to denounce as the first few years after having Jhin were utterly perfect. Everybody in the Tsukino family believed that the issues of this particular family were behind them as they focused solely on raising a charming son. What this supposedly happy family didn't know was that reality was poised to strike when they least expected. Everyone was a slave to reality, in the end, nobody could escape that fact. No matter how hard people tried to ignore reality with an illusion of some kind; reality would eventually bite them in the rear.

Living in Tsukino neighborhood was like nothing else. Everyone was so happy it seemed. The view from the walls was especially breathtaking for the young boy who made an effort to gaze down upon the village daily as he happily fed the birds that gathered there. These birds acted as a distraction to the boy as their perfect little family started to shift back to how it was previous to his birth. That isn't to say he was having a bad childhood thus far, actually, it had been quite blissful, especially with so many other family members around him to distract him. The only thing that sucked was coming home to anger, frustration, and yelling. Fortunately, through intense praying to, Mizuki the Lunar Goddess, he was able to slightly resist succumbing to their negativity altogether.

So how exactly did this little family get ripped apart? Well, it happened primarily because of a woman. Jhin's father had wandering eyes, that much had been obvious before he was even born, but the happiness that came over the father when Jhin was born wouldn't last forever. He hungered again for an escape to his boring life in the village where everybody worked toward the good of the whole. So that woman mentioned earlier was his escape. What that did though was open a rift within the family that would never be mended again. The mother simply tried to turn a blind eye, but eventually, they became the same couple as before the pregnancy. What was different this time around was them handling stuff behind closed doors instead of in the open for all to see.

Jhin was forced to eventually learn to act as if everything was perfect. This acting came naturally, but because of this he slowly became more distant from the people around him. He worried constantly about his place in the world and how he was being judged by these people. This self-conscious way of thinking that developed would guide him for years to come. He had become a slave to the expectations people unwittingly placed upon him. In that line of thought when asked to become a ninja he begrudgingly accepted as that was what was expected from somebody from the Tsukino house. To be frank, he had no idea what he really wanted so it was kind of a relief when forced to go down this structured path. The structure brought comfort compared to what he experienced at home.

In the academy, everything seemed so forced. Everyone that had been enrolled was so happy to the point where Jhin questioned if they were actually living their own reality or were they just in another illusion? This questionable way of thinking didn't exactly chime well when coupled with his anxiety around people. Their potential thoughts were constantly bothering him all the time. He was scared to do anything too out of the norm, wanting desperately to keep his facade of being a part of the whole intact. If everyone found out he came from a broken home, what would they think of him?! He would become that weird boy with nobody around him. This was something that would never become his reality. For when people in Kirigakure saw weakness they exploited it for their own gain. Showing weakness would in fact make him more susceptible to being bullied or worse from those far more talented than him.

With Jhin striving to be seen as perfect he eventually became a genin of the village without much issue! Before being assigned to a team he was merged with a fox as is the tradition in the family. The pain was unreal, but once the features emerged Jhin became ecstatic with excitement. However, in the back of his mind, Jhin was scared of what that meant for his ability to remain in the shadows. He was now a part of something that felt sort of real. A fully fledged member of the Kirigakure Rivalry Squad program. This was something that didn't involve his family, well it did, but it was more personal and directed toward improving himself. What this did was make him focus on himself without the headache commonly associated with doing such. The village actually wanted him to be strong! So that is exactly what he did. Training, working, and writing had become his life now. This was a good thing altogether for it allowed him to develop into his own person, sort of, at least internally.

Fortunately, Jhin was paired with another boy from the Muramasa family. There was some conflict due to the Tsukino house being subordinate to the Muramasa family but that didn't make it impossible to become friends and challenge each other to do better on a daily basis. To be honest, the training became a fun activity to get away from life at home. Being a genin came naturally to Jhin, he worked hard to complete whatever was assigned to him diligently. With nothing noteworthy happening during this period of time, it came as a surprise when he was asked to take the chuunin examination. What an honor, they actually thought he was ready for that. Well, if they thought that then there must have been some truth to it? He put up a smile and gladly accepted the offer, but that meant facing his long time rival which was no easy task.

What happened next was awesome. The objective was a solo fight between his rival. Finally, a time to show everyone that he had indeed fulfilled the expectations placed upon him by taking down his Muramasa rival! A time for him to shine. During this fight, he slowly whittled down his rival with senbon before going in for the finisher that ended the fight immediately. Unfortunately for the Muramasa boy, he hadn't fully prepared for fighting an excruciating long ranged battle of wits through the mist. There were few genin that could dodge, duck, and parry that many senbon without consequence. With each hit the boy became an easier target before the fight was finished with a single blow. The Tsukino hereditary trait of using their fox ears made it quite hard to fight within the mist Kirigakure had become infamous for, thus the win was impressive on Jhin's part. They promoted Jhin without question for his tactical genius and ability to expertly take down a target. Being promoted instantly brought about feelings of satisfaction over the now journeyman ninja! Jhin was becoming stronger for the village and for his own personal pleasure.

The thoughts that came next bothered Jhin slightly. What if the Muramasa boy was supposed to win?! That had been the expectation of the family as a whole. The Tsukino were merely a subordinate to the principle family Muramasa. Would that harm the relations between his parents and the Muramasa?! Winning had only been the expectation of those closest to him so what were the people in the village thinking about him now? These were good questions to think upon for a moment or two, especially since many now took interest in the boy for his display of self worth. Of course, these questions were far too complicated for the young ninja to worry about. Being too political in the village had negative consequences and because of that it was better to just try and stay out of that mess. In reality, Kirigakure valued strength and if the Muramasa boy had failed in the fight that meant he didn't deserve to be promoted yet. So in essence, there was no real reason to worry about these things.

At around this time, Jhin's parents finally had decided to separate, it had been expected by the young man, yet the sting hadn't really sunken in for the fresh chuunin. Had this been his fault? Was he the cause of their aggression? Could he have done something different to stop this? These were the kinds of thoughts running rampant through his head even though each of them attempted to quell such thoughts by saying that the damage had happened a long time ago. This was something he couldn't fix through training or acting. Reality had finally sunken its teeth into his rear end. How could he fix this? How could he repair everything and keep face with his peers. An impossibility now. Jhin just had to accept the fact and be thankful that they stayed together for the majority of his childhood giving him quite a decent upbringing instead of a what could have been. Jhin thanked 'Mizuki the Lunar Goddess' through prayer for keeping their family together for so long. He believed it was through her will that they kept strong through all these years. However, that didn't stop those around the family from talking and or spreading rumors about what happened.

The once happy people around the Tsukino neighborhood started to look at Jhin differently after the separation was publicly announced. Obviously, they were talking about the incident, not about him personally, but his mind got the best of him and because of that he distanced himself from them, thinking they were judging him behind his back. Jhin didn't want to be associated with weakness. In Jhin's eyes, everyone in the neighborhood was annoying, he just needed to maintain face with the village. At least his standing with the village wasn't damaged due to this situation. Jhin stayed away from the neighborhood whenever he could during this period of his life, simply putting everything into being a perfect ninja for the village.

When not working, Jhin was a prominent hunter for the people of the village, especially with the help of his trusty fox friends. They made a perfect team when hunting down beasts and the like. What they brought in after each hunt was astonishing. Using these skills he gave out his bounty to the poor and or less fortunate people in the merchant caste. These people thanked him each time he came from a hunt. What they didn't know was that the act of hunting was therapeutic for the man. Primarily that was the reason he was so good at the task. Out there in the wild, he was able to shed all of those expectations and thoughts that plagued his mind daily. The people from the merchant caste started to love him like a local celebrity! Many people took notice of this trend and became interested in the young man. For using ninja for their own gain was what the village was about.

Then came a cruel yet charismatic man. He was quite an influential person from the merchant caste. Using his pull he eventually convinced Jhin over while also signing him to a contract that would help endorse many of the merchants failed business ideas at the expense of Jhin's reputation. Negatively many of the people Jhin had helped over the years started to dislike him based solely on the merchant's shoddy business tactics which the young man hadn't thought about initially. Over the years, the merchant abused Jhin mentally and sometimes physically to the point that he didn't question the merchant anymore. The abuse was so prominent that he was forcefully being used be people for sexual purposes for the personal gain of the merchant. There were many interested in those that came from house Tsukino. Having been so distant with his family over the years they hardly knew or cared about his plight, thus he just kind of dealt with it by turning a blind eye like during his childhood.

Even with that situation going on, it hardly had an effect on Jhin's performance in relation to the village. With an almost perfect track record on missions, Jhin was eventually promoted to Specialist Jounin for the exceptional work he had done for the village throughout the years. There were many that attempted to argue against the decision as these people had been subject to the rumors of the people, but alas there were few that questioned Jhin's actual track record because that was directly demonstrated on paper in his file. In their eyes, he was a stand-up individual that deserved the promotion. Jhin took the promotion to heart as a confirmation of the work he had put in over the years. The young man had achieved a great honor from the village which also allowed for more freedom to stay at home to write, read, relax, cook, and generally just be a hermit. However, even with all that strength, the man was seemingly nothing when face to face with the merchant that seemingly owned him.

What came next was an interesting turn of events. While Jhin was being used by some noble men and ladies, he was unwittingly introduced to Karagata, Shiv. Shiv was a bannin of the village and the face of the infamous head hunter division. That meant this man was practically untouchable in terms of what he could do around the village. This champion of the village had been interested in Jhin since his display in the chuunin examinations. Why you may ask? Well, Jhin had shown potential for being a weapon suited to the organization. The organization needed people who could hunt and take down targets without hesitation. What a place to find the young man though. Surely, Shiv had heard about these rumors, but to see it first hand was another story. This so called man was still living in fear like a child.

Jhin was pathetic in reality, but that didn't have to be the end of somebody with impressive potential. That needed to stop if he was going to be used as a weapon of the village. Shiv wasn't going to allow this weapon to be wasted by the likes of a simple merchant too focused on his own greed to realize exactly what he possessed. In an instant, Shiv whipped out his machete and cleaved straight through the merchants hired thugs that kept Jhin in line by simply being in the vicinity. Harming the nobles wouldn't be smart for they had much influence in the village, thus allowing them to flee in terror was the best alternative. They wouldn't say shit about this incident for fear of exposing their own scandalous behavior to the rest of the village. In his usual cold tone, Shiv told Jhin to get up, put on some clothes, and follow him. Without thinking, Jhin simply followed orders. Jhin hadn't guessed the motive of the champion until they were face to face with the merchant. There was something about this man that brought about an unnerving fear within Jhin. It was almost like a dog looking at his master after doing something wrong. That needed to stop right now for Jhin needed to grow and become better for the benefit of the village and himself.

Giving Jhin a blade, Shiv told Jhin to kill the man. Jhin almost froze in confusion. How was he supposed to react to this? Everything was conflicting right now with what he had thought he already knew of the workings of the world around him. Those things were all lies; fabricated by the merchant. Over the years he had weaved his life out of what others had told him to do. So with that line of thinking he had gone down a dark path unfit for one of his rank and position. Despite this revelation, Jhin wasn't going to just abandon what he had grown to do. Instead, he would do exactly what was expected of him in that moment. Jhin took the machete and beheaded the merchant who had abused him for years. With that Shiv had thought the man would be fixed now, but that would be too easy. The reality of it all was that Shiv was now the standard and instead of being used for the merchant's schemes, Jhin would now be used as a weapon of the village.

Under the protection of Shiv, Jhin was contracted under the Karagata family. Since Jhin hadn't been contracted before except be inheritance he would instead be placed in a subfamily to denote his standing in the family hierarchy, thus being thrown into servitude to the Karegata subfamily. Jhin was delighted to finally be rid of those horrible rumors that circulated around his neighborhood. For now when he introduced himself he would confidently say, "I'm Jhin, bled for the Family Karegata, born of the Family Tsukino". Once said, everyone would instantly recognize what that statement meant. The man was now part of a ruthless family that didn't let anything stand in their way. Perfectly what Jhin wanted people to perceive him to be.

Shortly after the incident, Jhin was taken into the head hunter division. Here he gained the skills required to become a tracker for the organization. Through the organization, he was able to grow and become the weapon Shiv had envisioned so long ago. Jhin even gained a nickname, 'The Flanking Fox', for his ability to track practically anybody! Jhin was a seemingly perfect fit here and became quite the lively individual always working hard to maintain face as a weapon for Kirigakure. As a member of the head hunter division, Jhin does what is required of him without question, but when you gaze into his eyes you can see he isn't exactly the perfect person his record says he is.
