INSERT CHARACTER IMAGE

KURO, KYUSEISHU.

THE INFO.

Name: Kuro ,Kyuseishu
Nickname:

The Hidden Hand
This nickname is particularly used between the Silent Four. The Silent Four consist of two members from the Shikyo Clan and two members from the Kuro Clan. Although he's not overly fond of the codename, it is his methods of integrating himself into the big picture and influencing major events for The Creed.

Alyasha the Breaker.
There are only a few people who actually know his name. It is a homage to his ancestor who was co-founder to The Creed. Although it is true Alyasha the Sage came from the Fourth House, Alyasha the Breaker is sort of the opposite of his long gone ancestor. The Breaker part of the title is from his younger days as a fighter. Being a pragmatic fighter as a young man, Kyuseishu was always fond of disabling his opponent by using the objects around him. After every fight, he was usually battered and bloody with broken objects around him and a wan smile on his face. This title still sticks to the people of his clan.

Kyu- A simple shortening of his known name.

Age: 32
Gender: Male
Appearance:
It is hard to not notice Kyuseishu in the room with his straighten back, his masculine aura, and his intimidating physiology. Kyu is the epitome of the man who is alpha and is not ashamed to flaunt that aura whenever it can benefit him. His Type A personality, matched with his staggering appearance makes him stand out.
He stands at 6'4 (194.05cm to be exact). Anyone who has ever seen Kyu knows that one has to look up to look into his eyes and there are very few men who is the same height as him. He is a man who can use his height to his advantage. Only when he identify the weaker subject does he use his height and cast a shadow over him. What gives him even more of intimidation would be his size.

Coming from the Kuro Clan, the Fourth house has always specialize in warfare. The physiology of their clan has always adapted based on this particular specialty. His father, grandfather, great-grandfather all the way down to Alyasha the Sage have very muscular build and Kyuseishu keeps that genetic tradition. From the neck, all the way down to the calves is a man who carefully molds the body to absolute perfection. His maintaining weight is around 220lbs. He has been known to gain weight on purpose in order to gain muscle, the heaviest he's been was 250lbs. The lightest he's been was when he was twenty-five at 195lbs.

It isn't hard to see the attractiveness in his face. Perhaps it is the full fledged beard and the long locked hair that gives him the gruff exotic look. Or the fact that it is also a rarity to see his dark tone of skin in Kirigakure which is famous for having a majority of their people with pale complexion. It is a surprise to see he has very little scaring over his face. Through the many fights he has encountered and engaged, his face has remained relatively smooth. He does have a feint scar over his right eye that seems more of a soft birthmark. Again, this ties back to his fondness of his body. The inner must represent the outer and so he takes great care of his face, his beard and his locks. When he's needing to be professional, we see the beard oiled and combed and locs freshly washed and lightly pulled back. Having locs all of his life, Kyuseishu has always In public, it is very rare to see his hair let loose. He keeps the habit of letting his hair down whenever he needing to relax and show a calmer and cooler side.

During his professional visits, he is a man who has a wide variety of clothes for the occasion. The wealth of his family plus the wealth he has gained personally sees to that he has a large collection of clothes to offer. But he does have a bit of a preference. Because of his skin tone, he tends to wear colors that will stand out. Red, orange, yellow, purple and blues are just a few colors that he prefers mixing in simple neutral colors such as black or white. More often than not, Kyuseishu has been seen wearing plain clothing but whenever he wants to be unseen he'll choose plain clothing.

His jounin attire is nothing short of typical. What makes it different is that he has a red sash that is four feet long he usually carries around with him at all times. When placed correctly-around his waist or around his arm- it shows the fourth house symbol of the Kuro clan, the image of a lion embroidered in gold. Another thing he wears most if not all the time is a necklace that is made out of lion's tooth. Engraved on it is a name written in a forgotten tongue only few people in his house would know. A simple gift he received after he became the main leader of his house.

His wardrobe has a tendency of changing from mission to mission. His attire will mostly consist of the attire of the jounin when it comes to diplomacy. He feels it necessary to keep true to the village he represents whenever politics comes into play. Diplomacy of a special kind results in him wearing one of his all time favorite suits. He wears a midnight black suit, custom made and fitted to Kyuseishu size and height. The cufflinks are made out of gold with a tiny ruby within it. On the back of the black vest is the embroidery of the lion, his house's symbol. in purple. He has one vest that has the same symbol only in red whenever he has a red tie. The suit was perfected for him by a long time friend of The Creed. As Kyuseishu puts it "It was a favor for a favor".

When it comes to more carefully orchestrated missions like Assassinations and espionage missions his clothing tends to be a bit tricky. Perhaps that isn't the right word for it. The missions involving assassinating and espionages tend to have a bit more...discretion on his part. More often than not, Kyuseishu will devise his wardrobe either on the spot or have it all laid out and prepared. Such is where he'll produce clothing that may resemble a villager or a farmer if the place the mission is taking place is far from the city. In the city, his means of camouflage revolves around urban wear. The classic baggy pants and hoodie has been a personal favorite of means of just getting information. Looking like a bum that just lost his house or a threatening goon. With assassinations, in particular, he wears an all black jounin attire with the added addition of a hood that covers most of his features said for his beard (if it isn't trimmed down). Because of his height and size this can come off as extremely intimidating to those victims taken by his hand and also effective for night time assassinations (which is when he does most of his killing). He doesn't usually have any special weapons when it comes to the killing. He's known to use his hands as his tool. However, special consideration is taken when he wants to travel light. He has two special slots within the jacket that carries two kunai. There is nothing particularly special about these kunai, only that he keeps these two for the sake of slicing the victims neck from ear to ear.

Forehead Protector: From the beginning days of shinobi career, Kyuseishu has always had His protector wrapped around his arm. There were times where he would have to put his protector around his forehead for the sake of acting loyal. This was the case when he was in Iwagakure and Kumogakure. In Kirigakure, he wears it around his left arm
Personality:
The Inside Man and the Foundation of Power

From the groundwork, the core of Alyasha/Kyuseishu is central to understand the man that is Kyuseishu working the way outward. The foundation has to set in and build the bridge that'll lead up the man he is known today.
From the beginning, the core of Alyasha was installed into him by his father Yachazy'al. His background is like most fathers coming from the Fourth House of the Kuro Clan. He was raised as a warrior, trained and conditioned to be the perfect warrior in all aspects of life. Like most men of the fourth house, they did not hinder themselves to the battlefields of the world but the mind as well. Each warrior would make sure their minds were just as sharp as their blades on the battlefield and Alyasha's father was no exception. Yachazy'al was always a different man of the sort, an eccentric of the sort. Yachazy'al saw the infrastructure of his clan and his family personally on a different playing field. The fighting style that had given strength to their clans centuries ago must not only be restrained to two aspects: Both body and mind. The spirit must also become powerful as well. He wasn't trying to do something new but return their house back to its former glory. But the house's mind was still arrogant and did not wish for their teachings to change. If Yachazy'al couldn't implement this into his brothers then he'll do it with his sons. Yachazy'al would eventually raise three sons: Alyasha, Dany'al, and Mashah. From there, he taught his sons the importance of the three in one concept. The body is weak without the mind, the mind is powerless without the spirit and the spirit is nothing without the body. Perhaps it was the way he taught it that made these three brothers leaders among the giant clan.

From the beginning, his mind was crafted to be a powerful leader. He was crafted by his father to not only lead people but to lead his life accordingly and with no masters. Alyasha was set at a young age to be the rock that most people seek out whenever they call for a leader. He's always been strong, even among his two brothers, his strength always shone from the early recesses of his life to the man who is called "Kyuseishu".

His two brothers will tell anyone that Alyasha is the embodiment of power. Throughout their entire lives, the three brothers would fight over dominance and Alyasha was the one who conquered. Knowing he can conqueror his own two brothers, who are strong in their own way, he always felt he could conquer anything and everything. With his brothers, he had different tact for domination. He understood that each person is different and each undertaking of this dominance has taught him to be tactful. Over the course of his life he learn to be smart on his feet, learned when to take the challenge and when to retreat for another day. He learn what risks to take and how to manage each risk. He has failed much in this battle of wits but experience molded him into the impressive man that he is today. Alyasha understands that the mind is just as deadly a battlefield as any type of warfare. The difference is that mind warfare leaves more scars and if you don't learn early to heal them up then you'll die.

He can mask this trait well. As a young teen, this power aura use to influence much of his actions and made him out be a power hungry individual who would turn into a tyrant. Alyasha understood that many people in this world can also fear this trait. Many think that if one has this personality then they are either swoon by power. Such was the case of many clansmen in the Kuro clan and was usually discourage. Alyasha did not want this part of him to die. In his eyes, this trait is the foundation. It makes him who he is. The thought of replacing this want for power and dominance into something else was indeed foreign and to . Alyasha understood that this power-hungry trait had to be release into some other venue.

A man who charms

The game of seduction didn't seem like the venue a man who built his entire soul for warfare but Alyasha say this in a different light. Most see the game of seduction as a way to get to either the different sex or the same sex. Alyasha, always being fond of the women, saw the challenge of seducing enticing but always focused his time and energy towards political power and influence over the seduction game. But nevertheless he found himself being a natural. He learned that he had the ability to coax his words with mystery, never giving too much away at the first meeting and always seeming to be far off and enigmatic. He understood that if he did too much mystery then the woman of interest would not seek him out. He had to have the perfect balance and he learned this all well at the first two tries. Other than his immediate family and a few close associates, Alyasha has always been quick. Too quick for the likes of him. It only takes him one or two tries for him before he shows understanding then mastery. He reached the point where many women found his enigmatic self tantalizing to the point where they were trying to find out more about him. Once they were ensnared he could do whatever he want with them. Even today, this particular art is just an extension of his almost limitless arsenal of mental warfare tactics. This seduction he can use not just on his women but men too. If he wants to seduce people to be on his side then he can do so. If he can use his words to turn people against each other he can. He can use his skills to raise up an army or destroy a nation. But this did not lessen the power hungry individual. It only made him hungrier. As he was getting closer to his late teens to his early twenties he felt the increasing pull of wanting to have more power.

A man who seeks.
Knowledge is the fuel that nourishes the mind. As one who has sought the true mastery of the body, it is only natural for him to be able to have true mastery of the mind. It would not be unlikely for any one of his brothers to see him in the catacombs for his forefathers in the off regions of Kaze no Kuni where there are ancient scrolls laid among the dead. It was neither strange for his family to see him also in the libraries studying the ancient text of the emperors of the Kuro empire, their scholars writing down all esoteric languages and verses of their times. From the looks of him, no one would assume he was the reading type much less a historian. But many are surprise to know that he has extensive knowledge of shinobi history, the history of his great ancestor Alyasha the sage, the formation of The Creed, the foundation of Shantakai and its first leader. He knows the deep history of the clans of all the major countries plus the clans that are non-existent today. It is this extensive knowledge that makes him a powerful asset not only in the village he resides today but the organization he works for. Alyasha is nothing short of a book with a rich history.

The Outside Man.
Alyasha doesn't suffer from the breaking of the three faces: The man who he sees, the man in which he wants people to view and the man people see. At an early age, he has learned to combined these three faces into one and the face that people usually see is that masculinity. Many people say it is the King personality, the type A, the one that is confident, the one that is aggressive when need be, the one where people look when they are in need of a leader. He exhibits this trait for the purpose of giving people the show they want.
He doesn't show his aggression too often. For the most part, he is the 'strong, silent' type. Usually his aggression is shown in battle where the strong and silent type almost amplifies. He becomes a blank slate, a man who cannot be read through the face only through actions. There are the rarest times where the high of the adrenaline makes him want to laugh and shout. The excitement of balancing oneself on the verge of life and death excites him. When blood begins to spill from his body, the high of dying entices him, almost the point of sexual pleasure. He has only experienced this when he fought Kurayami, Heiki, the second Shantakai leader and his second brother Dany'al.
He is secretive by nature, only seen by the most elite of men. Even among the elite, he is somewhat of a person who is rarely trusted. Alyasha puts people of such eliteness on edge whenever he knows a secret. On the one hand, he has information that could either make a person of power rise up or break that person down to nothing. As said, he is a person who loves power and will do whatever it is necessary to gather more whether to better himself, better someone of interest or to break them down.

Nindō: "You watch the world spin thinking everything happens for a reason. Oh this is true, so very true. You see, the world, the universe itself is connected at a molecular level. They are connected by strings and those who can see these strings can also touch them. Imagine what man would do if they learned that it is I that pulls them."

THE NINJA.

Origin: Kaze no Kuni
Affiliation: Kirigakure no Sato
Rank: A-rank
Specialities: Dominant: Taijutsu
Secondary: Fuuinjutsu
Elemental Affinities: Lightning and Fire
Combat Style:

Earth

Kyuseishu has always been a versatile fighter. His specialty of hand to hand makes him a scary force to be reckon with. Many are surprised (if they do not know him) how not only strong he is but his speed. For someone of his size and height, he is almost strength and speed that goes beyond the bounds of any normal man. Many soon realize that with this extreme strength and speed combined with his taijutsu expertise makes him one of the deadlier individuals in taijutsu. He still holds the title as master among his clan much to Kyuseishu dismay. During his younger days he learned the methods of each fighting style that has existed throughout history. While he does have the basic understanding of old styles, it is the new that he is fond of. The new styles of today that combined the methodical teachings of form with the practicality of combat on the battlefield that makes the new styles his general go-to. He tends to be pragmatic of the sort, grabbing anything, using anything as a weapon. He views his taijutsu not only with his fist, feet, knee, shin and elbow but rocks, broken bottle glass, tables, broken knives and swords as a mere extension of his body. This makes him look desperate but the fact is that he is uses any object as a weapon and use it well shows a complete mastery of certain object. How he holds it, how the shape of the object can change the way Kyuseishu fights with it. His body is meant to be a weapon and he'll use it. It has been ingrained in his mind since he was a young boy and he'll eventually pass this down to his children if he is lucky enough to survive.

Heaven

He's always had an interested in the art of Ninjutsu. Learning the sealing techniques of both the old and new did bring out a new drive to him. As the young protege of the first Shantakai leader, he learned early on that fuuinjutsu is more just sealing thing away. The course of his training brought into his arsenal a plethora of offensive seals, defensive seals, seals to inhibit the body and mind, seals to unlock the full potential of the mind. All the seals in his arsenal has a distinct purpose and he utilizes all of the seals to the fullest potential. That being said, he has a great understanding of seals to the point of almost immediate identification. He treats each seal as he treats a mathematical formula. The right combination can create a deadly force to destroy. Another combination can protect the body from any harm.

THE BACKGROUND.

History:
"Alyasha"
With every man that comes into power, there is a boy who sits on the outside step waiting for their father to come home and embrace him after a long day. The father would pick up his son and inspect seeing dirt smeared around his face, small cuts on his arm and purple bruises all over. The father would always smile, kiss him on the top of his forehead and set him down saying "You'll be a king one day." And every day that young boy would admire his father. His eyes would gleam every time he watched his father worked. Whenever he would pick him up close to his face he would enjoy the scruffy feel of his beard. He knows the feel of pulling on his father's hair, tugging away at the long dreadlocks he imagine getting one day. He was a boy who loved his father and the boy would eventually surpass his father.

Alyasha heard this through his entire early childhood. All from the time he was able to recognize speech to the young pre-teen years, he was told he was going to be a king one day. Born thirty-three years prior to the current events, Alyasha of the Fourth House was born in a sandy deserts of the Kaze no Kuni. His mother, Hannayah and his father, Yachazy'al have lived in Kaze no Kuni most of their lives travelling whenever they thought it would benefit the entire family. The house filled up relatively fast over the course of a few years. Alyasha would soon not be alone. Two years later, his brother Dany'al would be born and then a year later his youngest brother Mashah was born. The three brothers were relatively close. Alyasha, being the oldest and perhaps the strongest of the three, was protective of his brothers at first. Dany'al was the stubborn brother and strong willed to boot. Even though the three of them would compete on some level, whether it was fighting hand to hand, fighting with Ninjutsu or some other field it was Dany'al who was steady competition of his eldest brother. Mashah was generally the sensitive one out of the three and it would be Alyasha would be handle his problem whether it be an older. Mashah did compete with Alyasha but the eldest was victorious throughout their childhood. This competition was always encouraged by their father. Hannayah was not exactly too keen on the rivalry but she could not deny the effects it had on her three children. Life among this small family was good. It was not the center of perfection but in their eyes it was perfect. And perhaps that was the best thing for them because it gave them an outlook for the years to come.

When Sunagakure was still a powerful village, Alyasha and his brothers had joined the academy learning the ways of the shinobi. Alyasha first joined followed by his Dany'al. It was around this particular time, when Alyasha was six and Dany'al was four was when his father and many men in the fourth house of Kuro began their training as well. These particular years as a young boy wasn't exactly the funniest times in his life. The academy in Suna was more of a day of relief rather than a chore most children saw it as. Before he even joined the academy, Alyasha had started his training two years prior. He was used to waking up at six in the morning, training with his cousins and other members of his clan to the evening coming back home to dinner where he was tired and sore most days. At the age of four, he was dealing with the excruciating training regiment his clan has been giving to their young boys and girls since ancient times.

When he entered the academy, it came to almost a relief. The training regiment did not pause all the sudden. On the contrary. Alyasha remembers the training was spread throughout the weak and it only got harder. The only day he got was the last day of the week. Even then, he knew rest would not come as the thought of training the next day filled his mind. He remember coming into his fourth academy class, eating a breakfast his mother gave him that was made to energize, listening to the teacher talk about the root of ninjutsu and the relief that washed him almost made him fall out of his chair. He remembered the days of getting out of class hoping his instructor at home would forget about him and he could go home and rest. But there was never a time where his instructor forgot about his training. For the next two years in the academy, he balanced between the life of becoming a shinobi and the life of becoming a warrior in his clan. Soon, he did not know what tiredness was. It became a part of him. He knew waking up, training, eating and sleeping. This lather, rinse, repeat process continued until he graduated from the academy becoming a genin where the training in his clan only intensified.

This intensity was only done to Alyasha and Dany'al however, who graduated at the age of seven. Both brothers were watched daily by the Creed members in Sunagakure along with their leader father and two Shikyo members. They all saw that these two boys were special in their own ways with Alyasha having such a domineering personality and Dany'al having the willpower surpassing most grown men. Yachazy'al was setting in motion the next line of leaders for the Creed. Both brothers were fit to began their initiation and training with the Creed. When Alyasha looks back, he comments on how they realize their strengths come from this vital moment in their lives. It was around this time where Alyasha and Dany'al would have their lives set to be an agent and eventual leaders of The Creed.

As genin, the Alyasha had the definite skill to be anything. The village of Suna saw Alyasha as a bright kid whose skill in taijutsu were top in the class. For a young boy of nine years old, he was quite fast along with strength many say made his taijutsu fearsome. There was not a single genin in Sunagakure who could match his taijutsu besides his little brother Dany'al. Dany'al could match Alyasha in some fights they were in but Alyasha was the better fighter. Alyasha knew Dany'al's adeptness was with his ninjutsu. Alyasha has always been fond of Ninjutsu (later fuuinjutsu and Ninshuu) but it was his younger brother who surpassed him in almost every form of Ninjutsu. Alyasha has always been envious of his little brother's genius level prowess but a big part of him has always made him proud that his brother was so good at it. Dany'al had a mutual understanding and healthy envy of his brother's taijutsu. Individually, their powers were formidable at the time. When the two were together in a team, their synergy was unmatched. The two brothers were partnered together until they reached the age where they both became chunin. Alyasha was twelve and Dany'al was ten. It was then that The Creed saw it fit for them to begin their official training and induction into the organization.

Hanzo
Yachay'al had initially set it up so when Alyasha and Dany'al would be of jounin rank they would be fully integrated into The Creed where they were trained to learn the arts of assassination, espionage, and infiltration. The process started the moment Alyasha and Dany'al split a part where the former stood among the ranks of Iwagakure while the latter was set in the dark corner of ANBU of Konohagakure. The two brother who were a ferocious team since early childhood now faced their challenges alone. For Alyasha, this set him apart from his ninjutsu genius brother. The task he was bestowed would help him rise in the ranks of The Creed and open a new chapter in his personal history.

He had taken the name "Hanzo" during his few years in Iwagakure. Learning how to act a certain way so that no one from his past village and current village would recognize him, he became the hard-headed and stubborn man that many would identify him as. He was still a young teenager but his gifts in acting made him a natural in the role he played. His teachers were amazed at how his peers were easily fooled by this newcomer who looked different from all the rest yet he acted as if he had lived with them since birth. Alyasha will admit that this was where he gained many followers, both in Iwagakure and within The Creed itself. It was during this time where he met the fuuinjutsu user by the name of Heiki. This man, who would later become a puppet for the Creed, began to show Alyasha the ways of sealing techniques. This was foreign to Alyasha. One who was born and bred to be a warrior with his body now learning the modern seals of the shinobi and the ancient seals of the samurai and ninshuu monks was a 180. Regardless of its foreign nature, Alyasha was soon able to pick up on fuuinjutsu but it wasn't because it he found modern day seals interesting. On the contrary, he found them repetitive and dull picking them up with the simplest of ease. It was the ancient seals that he found fascinating. Alyasha, under the Hanzo persona, would find markings and languages within the ancient catacombs of forgetton dead lords and emperors during his missions with his Iwa shinobi. With these new understanding of seals he felt it would be necessary to find out more of these ancient seals.

"Xing"

It was when Alyasha turned twenty that he took his way towards Amegakure no sato. At this age, he was a respective member of The Creed rising up from the novice assassin to one of the top commanders within the organization. He found that during his missions in Iwagakure revealed the heavy truths of forbidden seals that seem to tell an ancient story. It is one that was eerily foreboding that never sat well with Alyasha. When he sent a request to travel to Amegakure, he was given an immediate clearance for the go ahead. He found that the persona he had in Iwa had to change and soon turned into the persona of a man who despised the villages and their beliefs. So came the man who would know himself as Xing, the mercenary of hatred. He admits that this time frame was a bleak one, gaining more enemies than allies. Amegakure wasn't exactly his funniest memory but he knew he wasn't there for anything but his own personal gain. He was there to find the esoteric knowledge of fuuinjutsu and the ties it had to his clan. Deep within the pipes that courses through Amegakure's infrastructure was the beginning of many questions and answers to his relentless search.

He found himself transferring again to another country and into the village hidden in the clouds. Because of its stricter codes and relentless security, Alyasha once again change into a different persona becoming not a shinobi of the sand or rock or even a mercenary of the rain. He became a shop keeper. A man who started his first small business for rare books. Alyasha kept the Xing name knowing that it would not traverse into these lands. Kumogakure has always been known for having people of his skin color, among their ranks so it was not much of a hassle to get inside and start a small business. He grew in favor with a few of shinobi, many people who began to really like him and his quiet ways. He kept this act for the next four years until he was twenty-seven years of age. When he was getting close to the answers that he was seeking, he found he was at another dead end and would soon leave Kumogakure for another country.

This is where the history of Kirigakure comes into play.

Kyuseishu
This part of Alyasha's history is...sketchy. There are very few people that knows what he was doing during his time infiltrating into Kiri only that he stayed in the background a lot during the beginning reign of Inoshi. As Sandaime was putting in his administration in the village, Alyasha formed his own administration within in, hiding away until the time was right for him to join the next Mizukage. It was around this time that his father had stepped down and it was now him and his two brothers that had the chance opportunity to take his place. It didn't take Alyasha long to put his own administration within The Creed and before his brothers even had a chance to lay in opposition, Alyasha had many supporters and soon became the one of the four heads that runs The Creed as a whole. This brought tension with his brother Dany'al but they both knew Dany'al would have done the same thing if the role had switched. Dany'al, skilled in the art of ninjutsu and infiltration, did not rise as fast like his brother. It was when Alyasha became a supreme commander that Dany'al was just a low-ranking officer. Alyasha was influential while his brother was the opposite.

It was this time frame that Kirigakure was ready for its downfall and it was in need of a new Mizukage. The disappearance of certain nobles led way for Alyasha's hidden reign. Alyasha then began to resurface acting as an aristocrat who would act as a shadow savior to the economic world. He had the funds to help bring businesses from down under and used his influence from The Creed to bring families that were once bankrupt out. He became the hidden hand that would help stabilize the small country along with a few other individuals and the current Mizukage himself. Now at thirty-two, the man now walks under the administration of Yondaime Mizukage, Tetsuo Hiroshi both as a seemingly loyal subject and an assassin who shows no fear in the face of opposition.

This is Kyuseishu.

Roleplay Sample: The night before had been the most unwelcoming foresight for the day ahead. Every cloud formation that Yasha saw sank the dwindling hope of the next day being halfway decent for the task he was given. He went to sleep that night with the wind howling outside and the thought of the cold penetrating his skin. He turned in his bed and caught a glimpse of what the world was outside. The clouds released the snowfall blanketing his view, the winds cried and howled like the moans of the dead wanting to escape the grip of death. He closed his eyes and tried to think thoughts that were not the cold, but as he fell into twilight he felt an ounce of him thinking about snow.

His dreams in beginning were shallow ; he had dreams tha had no flow, like he was looking at abstract art and the art was meshing the images into one. The one dream that woke him up consisted of him sitting in the snow with nothing on but pants. He was position in a meditative stance. He knew this because he felt his left foot getting numb and no matter where he meditated his left foot would always fall asleep. In that beginning span he felt at peace. The confusion that he felt before had faded. He took in deep breaths and let his mind go blank. The short span of time of peace made him nothing.

He felt something cold hit his shoulder. He opened his eye and saw one snowflake settle into a drop of water. He looked up and saw that it was beginning to snow. It came down in a small wave wetting the ground and paint a white landscape. Where the sky was filled with small clouds changed to the black clouds that was ready to release its load onto the earth. Yasha looked closely at the clouds, In dreams, one could control how far their eyes can see and at that moment he was able to zoom into the clouds most outer detail. He saw, for an instance, the vague resemblance of a face.

The clouds began to pull away from this face making it the only visible cloud in the sky and started to orbit it . The clouds began to fuse with the face refining it, shaping the image into something distinct. Yasha saw the rectangular jaw shape up to a sharp nose and full cheeks. The forehead began to smooth and the eyes started to pop out. The lips parted into a smile then a grin. A shit eating grin.

Kudara stared back at him. He opened his mouth and let out a roar that was coldfire and inhuman. Then Yasha realized it wasn't a roar but laughter. He could see the Adam's apple move up and down as the laughter shook the landscape.

The wind roared into life and the snow began sweeping from every direction. It was about time to leave. His brain signaled his legs to move but it got nothing in response. He looks down and saw himself sitting in the same meditative position he had when he first 'arrived' here. He tried to signal his body to move but again nothing happen. The dream had full control of his conscious. He was the puppet and his dream the puppeteer.

The snowfall just kept coming and coming and Yasha tried to move his body but it was for naught. Never in life did he understand the sensation of panic. Only in a dream could he ever feel vulnerable and mortal. He could feel his heart jump in his chest, furthering the anxiety wanting him to wake up. The puppeteer wanted him to experience this. It wanted him to stay there and experience this feeling of helplessness and fear. The snow began to pile, first covering his legs, then his stomach and chest. Move dammit move! His body did a slight twitch and he could feel his muscles strain but he was cemented down to the ground. Snow reached to his neck then his mouth. It got in his nose, his eyes and his ears.

Then the panic intensified

Like some cruel joke, the puppeteer let go of Yasha and he had control of his body. His body felt as if he had trained for days straight, each muscle burned and ached as he moved. He was suffocating feeling his throat throb just two breaths away from closing. Still panic stricken, he tried to climb out. His hand was reaching at the thick snow with desperate, grabby hands when he felt ice spear through his entire palm.

Sharp, stabbing pain filled in his head and for a moment he thought he was going to black out in his dream. He looked up, not knowing how he did, and he saw his hand was was torn to shreds, the muscles coming out of his palms and fingers. He turned his hand around to see the back of it and saw the bones had come out in an irregular pattern.

He opened his mouth to speak but no words seem to come out. He closed it then and blinked. He remembered something he read awhile back. Something about how to control fear. Focus he thought. Focus...

The pain in his hand started to burn. He felt his mind wanting to focus on that but he had to keep focusing on nothing. Focus on that fear...focus so that the fear runs through you like a current moving through you and fear itself is simply another current fusing with me.

He closed his eyes, held it for a second then looked up and saw his hand was back to normal. The pain had vanished. He moved his head around slowly and saw that he was back in the open area in which he was meditating.

He took a deep breath and closed his eyes again listening to his breathing, listening to the sound of nothing and letting his thoughts drift into nothingness.

Everything had went dark for a moment, the dream faded to nothing and then light pressed on his eyes. The sound of wind broke the last of the dream as he slowly realized he was back in reality. He woke up slowly looking around to see that he was in his bed, looking at his pillow that was wet with sweat. He sat up to wipe the sweat off his face then on his neck. He looked down to see his entire shirt was soaked from the neck down. He slowly peeled the shirt off his wet upper body. He got up and looked at the space heater he forgot to turn off. It was making a soft humming noise as Yasha approached it to turn it off.

"I hate these kinds of days"

Yasha was the second person to receive the mission from Atsuhiko on the winter storm's 'rest' days. The invitation to the apartment was unusually sudden. Atsuhiko is a formal individual who usually asked Yasha to come to his apartment at a certain time and on a certain day. He made it clear that he didn't want him at his apartment all the time nor did he want surprise visits from him (His last surprise visit ended them at a hospital and Atsuhiko's complaints for the next few weeks on how his hand was still hurting). Yasha knew that it was a trust issue. Even after Yasha told him he would be willing to be a blade for him, Atsuhiko was far from taking that statement as the final say and their camaraderie would begin anew.

He grew accustomed to this schedule to the point where his sudden invitation that afternoon from one of the servants working that day actually surprised him. "He wants to meet you right away", the servant who took the message had said, and Yasha took it with some urgency. One for the fact that this was the first time Atsuhiko had ever wanted to see him on an unscheduled day and two it was the fact that he was just curious. He left his home to arrive at his apartment in a flak jacket that was heavy in fleece and thick black pants that he would wear today. It was the quickest visit to date he remembered. Yasha came in and was told by Atsuhiko to meet him at the docks at a certain date. They would be overseeing cargo from one ship to another and be guarding it from pirates.

It seem rather easy. Yasha was more than willing to do a 'life up heavy thing and put it down' type of job. The threat of pirates coming in to raid added a bit of flavor to it and Yasha was more than accepting of the task. The way Atsuhiko delivered the information seem rather-secretive. Atsuhiko seem hesitant to ask Yasha if he was willing to take the mission, adding ums and eh to his rather formal vernacular.

"Look just don't ask questions about it ok? Just come." Atsuhiko had said and Yasha just shrugged saying ok and leaving it at that. Yasha had noticed the secrecy but he didn't think on until he found the same flak jacket and thick woolen pants in his closet.

"I wonder if I made the right choice saying I'll be his blade to that guy sometimes."

He got dressed into the same outfit. He found a woolen hooded coat to go underneath his fleece jacket and black boots that was insulated from ankle to toe. He opened up a second closet and pulled out the quiver of arrows he had in stored. Next to it was the short bow, the quarterstaff and nodachi all hanged up. He grabbed the bow by the grip and slid it back underneath the quiver. He had grown fond of the bow, practicing his archery for the sake of keeping his distance if the need ever presented himself. Atsuhiko was one who preferred long range. His fondness for Ninjutsu made him love the back line and cause havoc before they got close. The strategy didn't sound too bad to Yasha but he rather conserve energy rather than expend it especially on a day like that.

The wind was still howling. Yasha went to the balcony door and open the door to rushing snow. Snow came into his room and the wind blew anything that wasn't held down. He looked back and saw the time. He was going to be late to his annoyance but he could make due. He put a hand on his backside and felt the pouch containing his kit. He was satisfied to know he had everything still in there. He closed the door and jumped down from the balcony into the snow. He set off with the wind in his face and the snow coming down.

The bitterness seem to intensify as he reached the docks. The snow seem to die away only a little but the cold was sinking in. As he got closer and closer to the water, the wind chill dropped into the negatives making breathing a chore. The run to the docks gave him some warmth but only a little. The cold bit him and he could feel his body crying for warmth and heat. Yasha did not have a complete hatred for the cold. He wasn't particularly fond of it either. He would rather do things in the spring, summer or fall. Harsh winter like this made everything depressing. Training felt lackluster, motivation felt grey. Sleeping was the only thing he felt like doing and even that was depressing as his dreams were depressing. He arrived at the docks and walked past the different sections looking for the right ship. Each ship was stationed by a dock and each dock was labeled with a letter and number. He walked past a variety of docks, finding ships that lacked cargo to ones full of them, evading sailors that were carrying cargo off from one ship to another. Yasha had a feeling this would've been overwhelming if he didn't have a sense of direction.

He arrived at the appropriate docks with Atsuhiko standing in between a women with gorgeous red hair and a man who looked built and molded by the sea. He walked over and the sea captain saw him walk up. His eyes peered at Yasha, inspecting him like he would inspect a catch of fish "You late too? Is this what the shinobi of mist give example of? With tardiness when it comes to important tasks?" his voice was gruff and already irritable.

Yasha inspected the man to get a better understanding of him. He was in his fifties, the grey stubble on his face made his haphazard face look old and weary. The hair was spotted with grey and silver that could only be obtained by the stress of the sea for more than three decades. His accent sounded both country and sea-worthy, the dialect had a shrew undertone to it. Yasha nodded his head "My...apologies sir." He did not make an excuse nor did he care to make one up. The captain snuffed at him.

He turned to Atsuhiko "Atsuhiko-san" he said curtly. Even outside in the bitter cold Atsuhiko looked dressed like nobility. He looked at the woman. Immediately he swallowed a thought in his mind and knew not to cross her. She presented herself, for better or worse, as a person of mild authority. Her aura was strong, someone who had more experience than Atsuhiko. She looked powerful. She looked pissed.

He bowed to her slightly "Kaguya, Yasha ma'am" He said politely. Even if he said it with warmth it wouldn't rid of that almost angry face she had on. She looked like an angry cat that was just dipped in freezing cold water. If looks could kill then both Yasha, Atsuhiko and the captain would've been six feet under already.

Kuro, Kyuseishu
| The Info

NAME: Kuro, Kyuseishu
ALIAS(ES):
The Hidden Hand: This nickname is particularly used between the Silent Four. The Silent Four consist of two members from the Shikyo Clan and two members from the Kuro Clan. Although he's not overly fond of the codename, it is his methods of integrating himself into the big picture and influencing major events for The Creed.

Alyasha the Breaker: There are only a few people who actually know his name. It is a homage to his ancestor who was co-founder to The Creed. Although it is true Alyasha the Sage came from the Fourth House, Alyasha the Breaker is sort of the opposite of his long gone ancestor. The Breaker part of the title is from his younger days as a fighter. Being a pragmatic fighter as a young man, Kyuseishu was always fond of disabling his opponent by using the objects around him. After every fight, he was usually battered and bloody with broken objects around him and a wan smile on his face. This title still sticks to the people of his clan.

Kyu: A simple shortening of his known name.

AGE: 32

GENDER: Male

CLAN:The House of Kuro: The Fourth House

NINDO:
"You watch the world spin thinking everything happens for a reason. Oh this is true, so very true. You see, the world, the universe itself is connected at a molecular level. They are connected by strings and those who can see these strings can also touch them. Imagine what man would do if they learned that it is I that pulls them."

QUOTE(S):

Appearance:

PHYSICAL:

It is hard to not notice Kyuseishu in the room with his straighten back, his masculine aura, and his intimidating physiology. Kyu is the epitome of the man who is alpha and is not ashamed to flaunt that aura whenever it can benefit him. His Type A personality, matched with his staggering appearance makes him stand out. He stands at 6'4 (194.05cm to be exact). Anyone who has ever seen Kyu knows that one has to look up to look into his eyes and there are very few men who is the same height as him. He is a man who can use his height to his advantage. Only when he identify the weaker subject does he use his height and cast a shadow over him. What gives him even more of intimidation would be his size.

Coming from the Kuro Clan, the Fourth house has always specialize in warfare. The physiology of their clan has always adapted based on this particular specialty. His father, grandfather, great-grandfather all the way down to Alyasha the Sage have very muscular build and Kyuseishu keeps that genetic tradition. From the neck, all the way down to the calves is a man who carefully molds the body to absolute perfection. His maintaining weight is around 220lbs. He has been known to gain weight on purpose in order to gain muscle, the heaviest he's been was 250lbs. The lightest he's been was when he was twenty-five at 195lbs.

It isn't hard to see the attractiveness in his face. Perhaps it is the full fledged beard and the long locked hair that gives him the gruff exotic look. Or the fact that it is also a rarity to see his dark tone of skin in Kirigakure which is famous for having a majority of their people with pale complexion. It is a surprise to see he has very little scaring over his face. Through the many fights he has encountered and engaged, his face has remained relatively smooth. He does have a feint scar over his right eye that seems more of a soft birthmark. Again, this ties back to his fondness of his body. The inner must represent the outer and so he takes great care of his face, his beard and his locks. When he's needing to be professional, we see the beard oiled and combed and locs freshly washed and lightly pulled back. Having locs all of his life, Kyuseishu has always In public, it is very rare to see his hair let loose. He keeps the habit of letting his hair down whenever he needing to relax and show a calmer and cooler side.

ATTIRE:

During his professional visits, he is a man who has a wide variety of clothes for the occasion. The wealth of his family plus the wealth he has gained personally sees to that he has a large collection of clothes to offer. But he does have a bit of a preference. Because of his skin tone, he tends to wear colors that will stand out. Red, orange, yellow, purple and blues are just a few colors that he prefers mixing in simple neutral colors such as black or white. More often than not, Kyuseishu has been seen wearing plain clothing but whenever he wants to be unseen he'll choose plain clothing.

His jounin attire is nothing short of typical. What makes it different is that he has a red sash that is four feet long he usually carries around with him at all times. When placed correctly-around his waist or around his arm- it shows the fourth house symbol of the Kuro clan, the image of a lion embroidered in gold. Another thing he wears most if not all the time is a necklace that is made out of lion's tooth. Engraved on it is a name written in a forgotten tongue only few people in his house would know. A simple gift he received after he became the main leader of his house.

His wardrobe has a tendency of changing from mission to mission. His attire will mostly consist of the attire of the jounin when it comes to diplomacy. He feels it necessary to keep true to the village he represents whenever politics comes into play. Diplomacy of a special kind results in him wearing one of his all time favorite suits. He wears a midnight black suit, custom made and fitted to Kyuseishu size and height. The cufflinks are made out of gold with a tiny ruby within it. On the back of the black vest is the embroidery of the lion, his house's symbol. in purple. He has one vest that has the same symbol only in red whenever he has a red tie. The suit was perfected for him by a long time friend of The Creed. As Kyuseishu puts it "It was a favor for a favor".

When it comes to more carefully orchestrated missions like Assassinations and espionage missions his clothing tends to be a bit tricky. Perhaps that isn't the right word for it. The missions involving assassinating and espionages tend to have a bit more...discretion on his part. More often than not, Kyuseishu will devise his wardrobe either on the spot or have it all laid out and prepared. Such is where he'll produce clothing that may resemble a villager or a farmer if the place the mission is taking place is far from the city. In the city, his means of camouflage revolves around urban wear. The classic baggy pants and hoodie has been a personal favorite of means of just getting information. Looking like a bum that just lost his house or a threatening goon. With assassinations, in particular, he wears an all black jounin attire with the added addition of a hood that covers most of his features said for his beard (if it isn't trimmed down). Because of his height and size this can come off as extremely intimidating to those victims taken by his hand and also effective for night time assassinations (which is when he does most of his killing). He doesn't usually have any special weapons when it comes to the killing. He's known to use his hands as his tool. However, special consideration is taken when he wants to travel light. He has two special slots within the jacket that carries two kunai. There is nothing particularly special about these kunai, only that he keeps these two for the sake of slicing the victims neck from ear to ear.

FOREHEAD PROTECTOR:

From the beginning days of shinobi career, Kyuseishu has always had His protector wrapped around his arm. There were times where he would have to put his protector around his forehead for the sake of acting loyal. This was the case when he was in Iwagakure and Kumogakure. In Kirigakure, he wears it around his left arm.

Personality:

The Inside Man and the Foundation of Power: From the groundwork, the core of Alyasha/Kyuseishu is central to understand the man that is Kyuseishu working the way outward. The foundation has to set in and build the bridge that'll lead up the man he is known today.
From the beginning, the core of Alyasha was installed into him by his father Yachazy'al. His background is like most fathers coming from the Fourth House of the Kuro Clan. He was raised as a warrior, trained and conditioned to be the perfect warrior in all aspects of life. Like most men of the fourth house, they did not hinder themselves to the battlefields of the world but the mind as well. Each warrior would make sure their minds were just as sharp as their blades on the battlefield and Alyasha's father was no exception. Yachazy'al was always a different man of the sort, an eccentric of the sort. Yachazy'al saw the infrastructure of his clan and his family personally on a different playing field. The fighting style that had given strength to their clans centuries ago must not only be restrained to two aspects: Both body and mind. The spirit must also become powerful as well. He wasn't trying to do something new but return their house back to its former glory. But the house's mind was still arrogant and did not wish for their teachings to change. If Yachazy'al couldn't implement this into his brothers then he'll do it with his sons. Yachazy'al would eventually raise three sons: Alyasha, Dany'al, and Mashah. From there, he taught his sons the importance of the three in one concept. The body is weak without the mind, the mind is powerless without the spirit and the spirit is nothing without the body. Perhaps it was the way he taught it that made these three brothers leaders among the giant clan.

From the beginning, his mind was crafted to be a powerful leader. He was crafted by his father to not only lead people but to lead his life accordingly and with no masters. Alyasha was set at a young age to be the rock that most people seek out whenever they call for a leader. He's always been strong, even among his two brothers, his strength always shone from the early recesses of his life to the man who is called "Kyuseishu".

His two brothers will tell anyone that Alyasha is the embodiment of power. Throughout their entire lives, the three brothers would fight over dominance and Alyasha was the one who conquered. Knowing he can conqueror his own two brothers, who are strong in their own way, he always felt he could conquer anything and everything. With his brothers, he had different tact for domination. He understood that each person is different and each undertaking of this dominance has taught him to be tactful. Over the course of his life he learn to be smart on his feet, learned when to take the challenge and when to retreat for another day. He learn what risks to take and how to manage each risk. He has failed much in this battle of wits but experience molded him into the impressive man that he is today. Alyasha understands that the mind is just as deadly a battlefield as any type of warfare. The difference is that mind warfare leaves more scars and if you don't learn early to heal them up then you'll die.

He can mask this trait well. As a young teen, this power aura use to influence much of his actions and made him out be a power hungry individual who would turn into a tyrant. Alyasha understood that many people in this world can also fear this trait. Many think that if one has this personality then they are either swoon by power. Such was the case of many clansmen in the Kuro clan and was usually discourage. Alyasha did not want this part of him to die. In his eyes, this trait is the foundation. It makes him who he is. The thought of replacing this want for power and dominance into something else was indeed foreign and to . Alyasha understood that this power-hungry trait had to be release into some other venue.

A Man Who Charms: The game of seduction didn't seem like the venue a man who built his entire soul for warfare but Alyasha say this in a different light. Most see the game of seduction as a way to get to either the different sex or the same sex. Alyasha, always being fond of the women, saw the challenge of seducing enticing but always focused his time and energy towards political power and influence over the seduction game. But nevertheless he found himself being a natural. He learned that he had the ability to coax his words with mystery, never giving too much away at the first meeting and always seeming to be far off and enigmatic. He understood that if he did too much mystery then the woman of interest would not seek him out. He had to have the perfect balance and he learned this all well at the first two tries. Other than his immediate family and a few close associates, Alyasha has always been quick. Too quick for the likes of him. It only takes him one or two tries for him before he shows understanding then mastery. He reached the point where many women found his enigmatic self tantalizing to the point where they were trying to find out more about him. Once they were ensnared he could do whatever he want with them. Even today, this particular art is just an extension of his almost limitless arsenal of mental warfare tactics. This seduction he can use not just on his women but men too. If he wants to seduce people to be on his side then he can do so. If he can use his words to turn people against each other he can. He can use his skills to raise up an army or destroy a nation. But this did not lessen the power hungry individual. It only made him hungrier. As he was getting closer to his late teens to his early twenties he felt the increasing pull of wanting to have more power.

A Man Who Seeks: Knowledge is the fuel that nourishes the mind. As one who has sought the true mastery of the body, it is only natural for him to be able to have true mastery of the mind. It would not be unlikely for any one of his brothers to see him in the catacombs for his forefathers in the off regions of Kaze no Kuni where there are ancient scrolls laid among the dead. It was neither strange for his family to see him also in the libraries studying the ancient text of the emperors of the Kuro empire, their scholars writing down all esoteric languages and verses of their times. From the looks of him, no one would assume he was the reading type much less a historian. But many are surprise to know that he has extensive knowledge of shinobi history, the history of his great ancestor Alyasha the sage, the formation of The Creed, the foundation of Shantakai and its first leader. He knows the deep history of the clans of all the major countries plus the clans that are non-existent today. It is this extensive knowledge that makes him a powerful asset not only in the village he resides today but the organization he works for. Alyasha is nothing short of a book with a rich history.

The Outside Man: Alyasha doesn't suffer from the breaking of the three faces: The man who he sees, the man in which he wants people to view and the man people see. At an early age, he has learned to combined these three faces into one and the face that people usually see is that masculinity. Many people say it is the King personality, the type A, the one that is confident, the one that is aggressive when need be, the one where people look when they are in need of a leader. He exhibits this trait for the purpose of giving people the show they want.
He doesn't show his aggression too often. For the most part, he is the 'strong, silent' type. Usually his aggression is shown in battle where the strong and silent type almost amplifies. He becomes a blank slate, a man who cannot be read through the face only through actions. There are the rarest times where the high of the adrenaline makes him want to laugh and shout. The excitement of balancing oneself on the verge of life and death excites him. When blood begins to spill from his body, the high of dying entices him, almost the point of sexual pleasure. He has only experienced this when he fought Kurayami, Heiki, the second Shantakai leader and his second brother Dany'al.
He is secretive by nature, only seen by the most elite of men. Even among the elite, he is somewhat of a person who is rarely trusted. Alyasha puts people of such eliteness on edge whenever he knows a secret. On the one hand, he has information that could either make a person of power rise up or break that person down to nothing. As said, he is a person who loves power and will do whatever it is necessary to gather more whether to better himself, better someone of interest or to break them down.

Kuro, Kyuseishu
| The Background

The History:

"Alyasha"
With every man that comes into power, there is a boy who sits on the outside step waiting for their father to come home and embrace him after a long day. The father would pick up his son and inspect seeing dirt smeared around his face, small cuts on his arm and purple bruises all over. The father would always smile, kiss him on the top of his forehead and set him down saying "You'll be a king one day." And every day that young boy would admire his father. His eyes would gleam every time he watched his father worked. Whenever he would pick him up close to his face he would enjoy the scruffy feel of his beard. He knows the feel of pulling on his father's hair, tugging away at the long dreadlocks he imagine getting one day. He was a boy who loved his father and the boy would eventually surpass his father.

Alyasha heard this through his entire early childhood. All from the time he was able to recognize speech to the young pre-teen years, he was told he was going to be a king one day. Born thirty-three years prior to the current events, Alyasha of the Fourth House was born in a sandy deserts of the Kaze no Kuni. His mother, Hannayah and his father, Yachazy'al have lived in Kaze no Kuni most of their lives travelling whenever they thought it would benefit the entire family. The house filled up relatively fast over the course of a few years. Alyasha would soon not be alone. Two years later, his brother Dany'al would be born and then a year later his youngest brother Mashah was born. The three brothers were relatively close. Alyasha, being the oldest and perhaps the strongest of the three, was protective of his brothers at first. Dany'al was the stubborn brother and strong willed to boot. Even though the three of them would compete on some level, whether it was fighting hand to hand, fighting with Ninjutsu or some other field it was Dany'al who was steady competition of his eldest brother. Mashah was generally the sensitive one out of the three and it would be Alyasha would be handle his problem whether it be an older. Mashah did compete with Alyasha but the eldest was victorious throughout their childhood. This competition was always encouraged by their father. Hannayah was not exactly too keen on the rivalry but she could not deny the effects it had on her three children. Life among this small family was good. It was not the center of perfection but in their eyes it was perfect. And perhaps that was the best thing for them because it gave them an outlook for the years to come.

When Sunagakure was still a powerful village, Alyasha and his brothers had joined the academy learning the ways of the shinobi. Alyasha first joined followed by his Dany'al. It was around this particular time, when Alyasha was six and Dany'al was four was when his father and many men in the fourth house of Kuro began their training as well. These particular years as a young boy wasn't exactly the funniest times in his life. The academy in Suna was more of a day of relief rather than a chore most children saw it as. Before he even joined the academy, Alyasha had started his training two years prior. He was used to waking up at six in the morning, training with his cousins and other members of his clan to the evening coming back home to dinner where he was tired and sore most days. At the age of four, he was dealing with the excruciating training regiment his clan has been giving to their young boys and girls since ancient times.

When he entered the academy, it came to almost a relief. The training regiment did not pause all the sudden. On the contrary. Alyasha remembers the training was spread throughout the weak and it only got harder. The only day he got was the last day of the week. Even then, he knew rest would not come as the thought of training the next day filled his mind. He remember coming into his fourth academy class, eating a breakfast his mother gave him that was made to energize, listening to the teacher talk about the root of ninjutsu and the relief that washed him almost made him fall out of his chair. He remembered the days of getting out of class hoping his instructor at home would forget about him and he could go home and rest. But there was never a time where his instructor forgot about his training. For the next two years in the academy, he balanced between the life of becoming a shinobi and the life of becoming a warrior in his clan. Soon, he did not know what tiredness was. It became a part of him. He knew waking up, training, eating and sleeping. This lather, rinse, repeat process continued until he graduated from the academy becoming a genin where the training in his clan only intensified.

This intensity was only done to Alyasha and Dany'al however, who graduated at the age of seven. Both brothers were watched daily by the Creed members in Sunagakure along with their leader father and two Shikyo members. They all saw that these two boys were special in their own ways with Alyasha having such a domineering personality and Dany'al having the willpower surpassing most grown men. Yachazy'al was setting in motion the next line of leaders for the Creed. Both brothers were fit to began their initiation and training with the Creed. When Alyasha looks back, he comments on how they realize their strengths come from this vital moment in their lives. It was around this time where Alyasha and Dany'al would have their lives set to be an agent and eventual leaders of The Creed.

As genin, the Alyasha had the definite skill to be anything. The village of Suna saw Alyasha as a bright kid whose skill in taijutsu were top in the class. For a young boy of nine years old, he was quite fast along with strength many say made his taijutsu fearsome. There was not a single genin in Sunagakure who could match his taijutsu besides his little brother Dany'al. Dany'al could match Alyasha in some fights they were in but Alyasha was the better fighter. Alyasha knew Dany'al's adeptness was with his ninjutsu. Alyasha has always been fond of Ninjutsu (later fuuinjutsu and Ninshuu) but it was his younger brother who surpassed him in almost every form of Ninjutsu. Alyasha has always been envious of his little brother's genius level prowess but a big part of him has always made him proud that his brother was so good at it. Dany'al had a mutual understanding and healthy envy of his brother's taijutsu. Individually, their powers were formidable at the time. When the two were together in a team, their synergy was unmatched. The two brothers were partnered together until they reached the age where they both became chunin. Alyasha was twelve and Dany'al was ten. It was then that The Creed saw it fit for them to begin their official training and induction into the organization.

Hanzo
Yachay'al had initially set it up so when Alyasha and Dany'al would be of jounin rank they would be fully integrated into The Creed where they were trained to learn the arts of assassination, espionage, and infiltration. The process started the moment Alyasha and Dany'al split a part where the former stood among the ranks of Iwagakure while the latter was set in the dark corner of ANBU of Konohagakure. The two brother who were a ferocious team since early childhood now faced their challenges alone. For Alyasha, this set him apart from his ninjutsu genius brother. The task he was bestowed would help him rise in the ranks of The Creed and open a new chapter in his personal history.

He had taken the name "Hanzo" during his few years in Iwagakure. Learning how to act a certain way so that no one from his past village and current village would recognize him, he became the hard-headed and stubborn man that many would identify him as. He was still a young teenager but his gifts in acting made him a natural in the role he played. His teachers were amazed at how his peers were easily fooled by this newcomer who looked different from all the rest yet he acted as if he had lived with them since birth. Alyasha will admit that this was where he gained many followers, both in Iwagakure and within The Creed itself. It was during this time where he met the fuuinjutsu user by the name of Heiki. This man, who would later become a puppet for the Creed, began to show Alyasha the ways of sealing techniques. This was foreign to Alyasha. One who was born and bred to be a warrior with his body now learning the modern seals of the shinobi and the ancient seals of the samurai and ninshuu monks was a 180. Regardless of its foreign nature, Alyasha was soon able to pick up on fuuinjutsu but it wasn't because it he found modern day seals interesting. On the contrary, he found them repetitive and dull picking them up with the simplest of ease. It was the ancient seals that he found fascinating. Alyasha, under the Hanzo persona, would find markings and languages within the ancient catacombs of forgetton dead lords and emperors during his missions with his Iwa shinobi. With these new understanding of seals he felt it would be necessary to find out more of these ancient seals.

"Xing"

It was when Alyasha turned twenty that he took his way towards Amegakure no sato. At this age, he was a respective member of The Creed rising up from the novice assassin to one of the top commanders within the organization. He found that during his missions in Iwagakure revealed the heavy truths of forbidden seals that seem to tell an ancient story. It is one that was eerily foreboding that never sat well with Alyasha. When he sent a request to travel to Amegakure, he was given an immediate clearance for the go ahead. He found that the persona he had in Iwa had to change and soon turned into the persona of a man who despised the villages and their beliefs. So came the man who would know himself as Xing, the mercenary of hatred. He admits that this time frame was a bleak one, gaining more enemies than allies. Amegakure wasn't exactly his funniest memory but he knew he wasn't there for anything but his own personal gain. He was there to find the esoteric knowledge of fuuinjutsu and the ties it had to his clan. Deep within the pipes that courses through Amegakure's infrastructure was the beginning of many questions and answers to his relentless search.

He found himself transferring again to another country and into the village hidden in the clouds. Because of its stricter codes and relentless security, Alyasha once again change into a different persona becoming not a shinobi of the sand or rock or even a mercenary of the rain. He became a shop keeper. A man who started his first small business for rare books. Alyasha kept the Xing name knowing that it would not traverse into these lands. Kumogakure has always been known for having people of his skin color, among their ranks so it was not much of a hassle to get inside and start a small business. He grew in favor with a few of shinobi, many people who began to really like him and his quiet ways. He kept this act for the next four years until he was twenty-seven years of age. When he was getting close to the answers that he was seeking, he found he was at another dead end and would soon leave Kumogakure for another country.

This is where the history of Kirigakure comes into play.

Kyuseishu
This part of Alyasha's history is...sketchy. There are very few people that knows what he was doing during his time infiltrating into Kiri only that he stayed in the background a lot during the beginning reign of Inoshi. As Sandaime was putting in his administration in the village, Alyasha formed his own administration within in, hiding away until the time was right for him to join the next Mizukage. It was around this time that his father had stepped down and it was now him and his two brothers that had the chance opportunity to take his place. It didn't take Alyasha long to put his own administration within The Creed and before his brothers even had a chance to lay in opposition, Alyasha had many supporters and soon became the one of the four heads that runs The Creed as a whole. This brought tension with his brother Dany'al but they both knew Dany'al would have done the same thing if the role had switched. Dany'al, skilled in the art of ninjutsu and infiltration, did not rise as fast like his brother. It was when Alyasha became a supreme commander that Dany'al was just a low-ranking officer. Alyasha was influential while his brother was the opposite.

It was this time frame that Kirigakure was ready for its downfall and it was in need of a new Mizukage. The disappearance of certain nobles led way for Alyasha's hidden reign. Alyasha then began to resurface acting as an aristocrat who would act as a shadow savior to the economic world. He had the funds to help bring businesses from down under and used his influence from The Creed to bring families that were once bankrupt out. He became the hidden hand that would help stabilize the small country along with a few other individuals and the current Mizukage himself. Now at thirty-two, the man now walks under the administration of Yondaime Mizukage, Tetsuo Hiroshi both as a seemingly loyal subject and an assassin who shows no fear in the face of opposition.

This is Kyuseishu.

The Sample:

The night before had been the most unwelcoming foresight for the day ahead. Every cloud formation that Yasha saw sank the dwindling hope of the next day being halfway decent for the task he was given. He went to sleep that night with the wind howling outside and the thought of the cold penetrating his skin. He turned in his bed and caught a glimpse of what the world was outside. The clouds released the snowfall blanketing his view, the winds cried and howled like the moans of the dead wanting to escape the grip of death. He closed his eyes and tried to think thoughts that were not the cold, but as he fell into twilight he felt an ounce of him thinking about snow.

His dreams in beginning were shallow ; he had dreams tha had no flow, like he was looking at abstract art and the art was meshing the images into one. The one dream that woke him up consisted of him sitting in the snow with nothing on but pants. He was position in a meditative stance. He knew this because he felt his left foot getting numb and no matter where he meditated his left foot would always fall asleep. In that beginning span he felt at peace. The confusion that he felt before had faded. He took in deep breaths and let his mind go blank. The short span of time of peace made him nothing.

He felt something cold hit his shoulder. He opened his eye and saw one snowflake settle into a drop of water. He looked up and saw that it was beginning to snow. It came down in a small wave wetting the ground and paint a white landscape. Where the sky was filled with small clouds changed to the black clouds that was ready to release its load onto the earth. Yasha looked closely at the clouds, In dreams, one could control how far their eyes can see and at that moment he was able to zoom into the clouds most outer detail. He saw, for an instance, the vague resemblance of a face.

The clouds began to pull away from this face making it the only visible cloud in the sky and started to orbit it . The clouds began to fuse with the face refining it, shaping the image into something distinct. Yasha saw the rectangular jaw shape up to a sharp nose and full cheeks. The forehead began to smooth and the eyes started to pop out. The lips parted into a smile then a grin. A shit eating grin.

Kudara stared back at him. He opened his mouth and let out a roar that was coldfire and inhuman. Then Yasha realized it wasn't a roar but laughter. He could see the Adam's apple move up and down as the laughter shook the landscape.

The wind roared into life and the snow began sweeping from every direction. It was about time to leave. His brain signaled his legs to move but it got nothing in response. He looks down and saw himself sitting in the same meditative position he had when he first 'arrived' here. He tried to signal his body to move but again nothing happen. The dream had full control of his conscious. He was the puppet and his dream the puppeteer.

The snowfall just kept coming and coming and Yasha tried to move his body but it was for naught. Never in life did he understand the sensation of panic. Only in a dream could he ever feel vulnerable and mortal. He could feel his heart jump in his chest, furthering the anxiety wanting him to wake up. The puppeteer wanted him to experience this. It wanted him to stay there and experience this feeling of helplessness and fear. The snow began to pile, first covering his legs, then his stomach and chest. Move dammit move! His body did a slight twitch and he could feel his muscles strain but he was cemented down to the ground. Snow reached to his neck then his mouth. It got in his nose, his eyes and his ears.

Then the panic intensified

Like some cruel joke, the puppeteer let go of Yasha and he had control of his body. His body felt as if he had trained for days straight, each muscle burned and ached as he moved. He was suffocating feeling his throat throb just two breaths away from closing. Still panic stricken, he tried to climb out. His hand was reaching at the thick snow with desperate, grabby hands when he felt ice spear through his entire palm.

Sharp, stabbing pain filled in his head and for a moment he thought he was going to black out in his dream. He looked up, not knowing how he did, and he saw his hand was was torn to shreds, the muscles coming out of his palms and fingers. He turned his hand around to see the back of it and saw the bones had come out in an irregular pattern.

He opened his mouth to speak but no words seem to come out. He closed it then and blinked. He remembered something he read awhile back. Something about how to control fear. Focus he thought. Focus...

The pain in his hand started to burn. He felt his mind wanting to focus on that but he had to keep focusing on nothing. Focus on that fear...focus so that the fear runs through you like a current moving through you and fear itself is simply another current fusing with me.

He closed his eyes, held it for a second then looked up and saw his hand was back to normal. The pain had vanished. He moved his head around slowly and saw that he was back in the open area in which he was meditating.

He took a deep breath and closed his eyes again listening to his breathing, listening to the sound of nothing and letting his thoughts drift into nothingness.

Everything had went dark for a moment, the dream faded to nothing and then light pressed on his eyes. The sound of wind broke the last of the dream as he slowly realized he was back in reality. He woke up slowly looking around to see that he was in his bed, looking at his pillow that was wet with sweat. He sat up to wipe the sweat off his face then on his neck. He looked down to see his entire shirt was soaked from the neck down. He slowly peeled the shirt off his wet upper body. He got up and looked at the space heater he forgot to turn off. It was making a soft humming noise as Yasha approached it to turn it off.

"I hate these kinds of days"

Yasha was the second person to receive the mission from Atsuhiko on the winter storm's 'rest' days. The invitation to the apartment was unusually sudden. Atsuhiko is a formal individual who usually asked Yasha to come to his apartment at a certain time and on a certain day. He made it clear that he didn't want him at his apartment all the time nor did he want surprise visits from him (His last surprise visit ended them at a hospital and Atsuhiko's complaints for the next few weeks on how his hand was still hurting). Yasha knew that it was a trust issue. Even after Yasha told him he would be willing to be a blade for him, Atsuhiko was far from taking that statement as the final say and their camaraderie would begin anew.

He grew accustomed to this schedule to the point where his sudden invitation that afternoon from one of the servants working that day actually surprised him. "He wants to meet you right away", the servant who took the message had said, and Yasha took it with some urgency. One for the fact that this was the first time Atsuhiko had ever wanted to see him on an unscheduled day and two it was the fact that he was just curious. He left his home to arrive at his apartment in a flak jacket that was heavy in fleece and thick black pants that he would wear today. It was the quickest visit to date he remembered. Yasha came in and was told by Atsuhiko to meet him at the docks at a certain date. They would be overseeing cargo from one ship to another and be guarding it from pirates.

It seem rather easy. Yasha was more than willing to do a 'life up heavy thing and put it down' type of job. The threat of pirates coming in to raid added a bit of flavor to it and Yasha was more than accepting of the task. The way Atsuhiko delivered the information seem rather-secretive. Atsuhiko seem hesitant to ask Yasha if he was willing to take the mission, adding ums and eh to his rather formal vernacular.

"Look just don't ask questions about it ok? Just come." Atsuhiko had said and Yasha just shrugged saying ok and leaving it at that. Yasha had noticed the secrecy but he didn't think on until he found the same flak jacket and thick woolen pants in his closet.

"I wonder if I made the right choice saying I'll be his blade to that guy sometimes."

He got dressed into the same outfit. He found a woolen hooded coat to go underneath his fleece jacket and black boots that was insulated from ankle to toe. He opened up a second closet and pulled out the quiver of arrows he had in stored. Next to it was the short bow, the quarterstaff and nodachi all hanged up. He grabbed the bow by the grip and slid it back underneath the quiver. He had grown fond of the bow, practicing his archery for the sake of keeping his distance if the need ever presented himself. Atsuhiko was one who preferred long range. His fondness for Ninjutsu made him love the back line and cause havoc before they got close. The strategy didn't sound too bad to Yasha but he rather conserve energy rather than expend it especially on a day like that.

The wind was still howling. Yasha went to the balcony door and open the door to rushing snow. Snow came into his room and the wind blew anything that wasn't held down. He looked back and saw the time. He was going to be late to his annoyance but he could make due. He put a hand on his backside and felt the pouch containing his kit. He was satisfied to know he had everything still in there. He closed the door and jumped down from the balcony into the snow. He set off with the wind in his face and the snow coming down.

The bitterness seem to intensify as he reached the docks. The snow seem to die away only a little but the cold was sinking in. As he got closer and closer to the water, the wind chill dropped into the negatives making breathing a chore. The run to the docks gave him some warmth but only a little. The cold bit him and he could feel his body crying for warmth and heat. Yasha did not have a complete hatred for the cold. He wasn't particularly fond of it either. He would rather do things in the spring, summer or fall. Harsh winter like this made everything depressing. Training felt lackluster, motivation felt grey. Sleeping was the only thing he felt like doing and even that was depressing as his dreams were depressing. He arrived at the docks and walked past the different sections looking for the right ship. Each ship was stationed by a dock and each dock was labeled with a letter and number. He walked past a variety of docks, finding ships that lacked cargo to ones full of them, evading sailors that were carrying cargo off from one ship to another. Yasha had a feeling this would've been overwhelming if he didn't have a sense of direction.

He arrived at the appropriate docks with Atsuhiko standing in between a women with gorgeous red hair and a man who looked built and molded by the sea. He walked over and the sea captain saw him walk up. His eyes peered at Yasha, inspecting him like he would inspect a catch of fish "You late too? Is this what the shinobi of mist give example of? With tardiness when it comes to important tasks?" his voice was gruff and already irritable.

Yasha inspected the man to get a better understanding of him. He was in his fifties, the grey stubble on his face made his haphazard face look old and weary. The hair was spotted with grey and silver that could only be obtained by the stress of the sea for more than three decades. His accent sounded both country and sea-worthy, the dialect had a shrew undertone to it. Yasha nodded his head "My...apologies sir." He did not make an excuse nor did he care to make one up. The captain snuffed at him.

He turned to Atsuhiko "Atsuhiko-san" he said curtly. Even outside in the bitter cold Atsuhiko looked dressed like nobility. He looked at the woman. Immediately he swallowed a thought in his mind and knew not to cross her. She presented herself, for better or worse, as a person of mild authority. Her aura was strong, someone who had more experience than Atsuhiko. She looked powerful. She looked pissed.

He bowed to her slightly "Kaguya, Yasha ma'am" He said politely. Even if he said it with warmth it wouldn't rid of that almost angry face she had on. She looked like an angry cat that was just dipped in freezing cold water. If looks could kill then both Yasha, Atsuhiko and the captain would've been six feet under already.

The COMBAT STYLE:

Earth

Kyuseishu has always been a versatile fighter. His speciality of hand to hand makes him a scary force to be reckon with. Many are surprised (if they do not know him) how not only strong he is but his speed. For someone of his size and height, he is almost strength and speed that goes beyond the bounds of any normal man. Many soon realize that with this extreme strength and speed combined with his taijutsu expertise makes him one of the deadlier individuals in taijutsu. He still holds the title as master among his clan much to Kyuseishu dismay. During his younger days he learned the methods of each fighting style that has existed throughout history. While he does have the basic understanding of old styles, it is the new that he is fond of. The new styles of today that combined the methodical teachings of form with the practicality of combat on the battlefield that makes the new styles his general go-to. He tends to be pragmatic of the sort, grabbing anything, using anything as a weapon. He views his taijutsu not only with his fist, feet, knee, shin and elbow but rocks, broken bottle glass, tables, broken knives and swords as a mere extension of his body. This makes him look desperate but the fact is that he is uses any object as a weapon and use it well shows a complete mastery of certain object. How he holds it, how the shape of the object can change the way Kyuseishu fights with it.

His body is meant to be a weapon and he'll use it. It has been ingrained in his mind since he was a young boy and he'll eventually pass this down to his children if he is lucky enough to survive. With the philosophy of dying in every encounter, he has an style t

Heaven

He's always had an interested in the art of Ninjutsu. Learning the sealing techniques of both the old and new did bring out a new drive to him. As the young protege of the first Shantakai leader, he learned early on that fuuinjutsu is more just sealing thing away. The course of his training brought into his arsenal a plethora of offensive seals, defensive seals, seals to inhibit the body and mind, seals to unlock the full potential of the mind. All the seals in his arsenal has a distinct purpose and he utilizes all of the seals to the fullest potential. That being said, he has a great understanding of seals to the point of almost immediate identification. He treats each seal as he treats a mathematical formula. The right combination can create a deadly force to destroy. Another combination can protect the body from any harm.

Fūinjutsu TECHNIQUES: Name: Kadenchi Fuuin | Battery Seal
Rank: C
Type: Fuuinjutsu | Supplementary
Range: -
Element: -
Description: After creating a seal, the user may choose to add this battery seal to that ‘parent’ seal. The battery seal is loaded with a defined amount of chakra, and is painted next to the written seal, like an attachment. Once the seal has been activated, the battery seal kicks in and provides any chakra cost for maintaining the jutsu, until the chakra from the seal is depleted. This allows the user to utilize a seal without constantly focusing chakra on the seal, as the battery seal provides the chakra source. Once the seal runs out of chakra, or does not have an adequate amount to provide for 1 more posts worth of consumption; both this seal and the parent seal cancel, ending the Fuuinjutsu. The total amount of chakra consumed is still the same as if the user was constantly feeding chakra into the seal; but this way they do not have to resort to such an archaic tactic as constantly feeding chakra.
Chakra Cost: Varies based on the amount of chakra sealed.

Name: Shui Fuin - Perimeter Seal
Rank: C
Type: Fuinjutsu
Range: Close-Far (0-10m+)
Element: Raiton/Katon/None
Description: A specialized seal the involves creating five tags and spreading them around an area; four corner tags, while the fifth tag is place upon the user. So long as these tags are in place, they create a light, intagible barrier. Physically, this barrier is invisible, and does nothing to keep a foe out. However, should a foreign chakra signature cross the barrier, the fifth tag will flare up, alerting the user that their perimeter has been breached. Typically alerts the user simply by lighting up, though a user with the Raiton element can prep the seal to give them a small shock, or burn them with Katon if they possess that element. Doujutsu users, such as Sharingan and Byakugan, can see the barrier, provided their doujutsu is active.
Chakra Cost: 7CP

Name: Gofuu Kekkai - Five Seal Barrier
Rank: C
Type: Fuuinjutsu
Range: Close (0m - 5m), Mid (5m - 10m), Far (10+)

Description: The five "kin" (prohibition) seals act together to form a barrier. To remove the barrier, all five tags must be removed at the same moment. They don't all have to be lumped together; being able to be at least a good hundred meters apart
Chakra Cost: 8

Name: Suishin Fuuin | Propulsion Seal
Rank: C
Type: Fuuinjutsu | Supplementary
Range: -
Element: Katon
Description: A very simple seal created by Hikaru for the sole purpose of performing a complex “Kunai missile” technique. By placing a small seal on the end of a kunai (or any surface really), the user can apply a very minimal amount of chakra to propel this object forward a short distance. The mass of the object usually interferes with the distance, but a kunai can travel about 10m on average, without even being thrown. The benefit of using this seal, instead of throwing it, is of twofold. On one hand, the propelled item will generally go twice as fast using this jutsu than if thrown by hand. On the other hand, it allows the user to place a battery seal amidst this propulsion seal to extend the travel time greatly. As such, it can propel a kunai like a missile, 100m or more if necessary. The propulsion only works in one direction however, and thus it can only fly in a straight line.
Chakra Cost: 5CP (2CP upkeep with Battery Seal)

Name:Fūinjutsu: Union of Minds Technique
Rank:C
Type:Fūinjutsu
Range:Close (0m-5m)(Mid 5m-10m)(Far 10m+)
Element:-
Description:Similar in concept to the 'Union of Senses Technique', this seal has far less of a combat or mission application due to the state required to aide in its utilization. To utilize this seal, requires two people, with the seal being placed upon the center of their forehead. Before the seal can be activated, both participants must maintain a seated or laying down position and attempt to enter a semi-meditative state. If they do not do so they present themselves to exposing their bodies to danger as they are under the influence of this seal, additionally this meditative state aids with the transference process listed below.

In essence this seal works similar to that of a Yamanaka technique or perhaps in the same manner that a Jinchuriki might enter the lucid dream state. In overly simple terms the seal temporarily seals one person's persona inside another. Upon entering this meditative state, one user must be designated a 'host', whilst the other is designated as a 'visitor'. The host allows the persona of the visitor to enter their mind via a method of transference which is aided by the meditative state both are under.

Within the host's perception, the visitor is capable of witnessing a reality created entirely by the host's mental ability. This is similar to the reality that is created as a representation for the sealing technique within the parameters with the lucid dreams state. However with that being said, those without a strong experience in thought control will often be at the victim of their memories or emotions and as such unwanted information might bleed through this granted perception.

When either the host or visitor wants the technique to end, they will simply snap their fingers which disrupts the alteration of perception and awakens them from their meditative state. Any physical damage suffered during this exchange does not effect either user mentally or physically [beyond the memory of it happening]. Given the nature of this technique it is impossible to use in any combat or dangerous situation. This seal can effect more than two people at a time but each person under the influence of the seal must be in the same meditative state.

Name:Fūinjutsu: Union of Senses Technique
Rank:C
Type:Fūinjutsu
Range:Close (0m-5m)(Mid 5m-10m)(Far 10m+)
Element:-
Description:Although complicated in theory, this technique is simple in function. In simple terms it acts as a network for the physical senses of the user or those under the influence of the seal. This seal requires at least two participants to accurately function, with one of the two acting as a receiver and the other acting as the transceiver, this can vaguely be likened to the relationship between a radio and a radio tower or perhaps a wi-fi router and a wi-fi receiver. After being placed on the forehead of both the user and one other person or persons, the the seal can then be activated to allow for the following effects:

The first of two possible effects is this: One of the people who wear the seal is capable of broadcasting one of their senses, this person is dubbed as the transceiver, to the others who also have donned the seal, these people are dubbed the receivers. In this method of usage, the transceivers broadcasted sense replaces that of the receiver. For example if Person A broadcasts their sense of hearing, then person B will lose their own sense of hearing and as such hear only what Person A does.

The Second of the two possible effects works in a similar manner, with each member sharing a net of senses. This means of course that each user under the influence of the seal broadcasts one specific sense and all users utilizing the seal receive each broadcast. This only works with one sense. For example if each member broadcasts their sense of sight then, every user in the seal network will be capable of perceiving the world from multiple angles as perceived by each Shinobi who is under the influence of the seal. This can be likened to changing the channels on a TV and with that being said, each user can only access one set of senses at the same time. For example, although person A is capable of seeing through the eyes of person B, C and D at any given time due to the network or union of sense. They are only able to see through the eyes of any of the people affected by the seal by switching their sense of vision from their own perception to that of another users. Any user of this seal can only see through one sense of sight at a time.

Of course, this technique comes with the obvious weakness that comes with the loss of any sense. If person A cannot perceive his surroundings while looking through the eyes of person B, then it becomes obvious that they are open for attack.

With the appropriate Animal Speaking SC, this technique can also be used on Animals who share a similar degree of perception.

Name: Chokuhi Horimono | Personal Tattooing
Rank: C
Type: Fuuinjutsu | Supplementary
Range: -
Element: -
Description: A method of writing very similar to the well known Finger Engraving Seal, however utilizing ink instead of simple etching. By holding in one’s hand a canister of ink, the user is able to draw this ink out with chakra and channel it to their index finger. Then, by sharpening the chakra around the user’s index, they can proceed to engrave into an object or person, the tattoo. While usually a tattoo will be painful, this tattooing procedure blends the ink with the skin (or other surface) to make it as painless as possible. While it does sting still, it’s not enough to effectively leave the user groaning in agony like a regular tattoo.

Name: Koukei Juugo ─ Bakuyaku Nifuda | Caliber 15 ─ Explosive Note
Rank: B
Type: Fuuinjutsu
Range: -
Element: -
Description: A customized seal that the user can etch, print, paint, or more commonly, place on a blank piece of parchment. Activating the seal produces an explosion equal to fifteen explosive notes. The jutsu is significantly less expensive than activating fifteen separate notes because of its compact nature.

Name: Hikushi Fuuin | Fire Spit Seal
Rank: B
Type: Fuuinjutsu | Offense
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m) - Long (10m+)
Element: Katon
Description: Half of this seal is tattooed on the tongue of the user, while the other half on the roof of their mouth. When the user holds their tongue to the roof of their mouth for a single second, and proceeds to channel a surplus of Katon chakra toward their mouth, the seal activates. From it spawns a single fireball to fully occupy the user’s mouth, before inevitably being released through the lips as a projectile. The fireball can fly up to ten meters before becoming nearly useless, but should it make contact with a surface, it can produce a hefty knockback effect and ignite the surface into second degree flames.
Chakra Cost: 10CP

Name: Haishitsu Fuuin | Disablement Seal
Rank: B
Type: Fuuinjutsu | Offense
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Element: -
Description: After performing a quick series of hand seals, the user’s palm will levitate a glowing blue chakra entity of kanji. By placing this kanji on a limb, the user is able to seal all chakra connectivity to that limb; leaving it disabled. This is effective for forcing a person to limp, or preventing them from performing jutsu. The seal lasts for as long as the user applies chakra to it, unless the enemy breaks it by overloading it with 18CP of chakra (14CP if they have Fuuinjutsu as a specialty). If this seal strikes the target’s chest, it will increase the chakra cost for all of the target’s jutsu by 5CP instead of disabling the entire body. If the head is struck, the seal will reduce 8CP from the target’s body before immediately breaking. The latter two effects are simply means of avoiding an auto-kill.
Chakra Cost: 14CP (4 per post)

Name: Kaminari Wana Fuin - Lightning Trap Seal
Rank: B
Type: Fuinjutsu
Range: Close (0-5M)
Element: Raiton
Description: After carefully enscribing the seal on a flat surface, the user imbibes the seal with Raiton chakra. When a foe walks across the seal, it will unleash this chakra all at once, in a small-scale AoE attack. Targets within 2 meters of the seal will be inflicted with damage equivalent to a B-rank bolt, including partial paralysis and 1st degree burns. Anything from 3-5m will be shocked as if by a C-rank bolt; outside of 5 meters will be unaffected, as this is beyond the seal's effective range.
Chakra Cost: 13CP

Name: Muscle Spasm Seal
Rank: B
Type: Fuuinjutsu
Range: Close (0m-5m)
Element: N/A
Description: This seal, again, manipulates with the body itself again. It can be placed among him or on others but it is a generally offensive type of fuuinjutsu. What this seal initially does is that once it is placed on a certain location of the body (doesn't matter where, the arm, the hand, the leg, the feet), the kanji for spasm will form. For about a post, the muscle will begin a painful spasm on that specific part of the body. This can stop the body from moving and keep the person from attacking.

Again, this is only when made on contact. The most efficient way of stopping a person with this is to place the seal on the back of another person or brain (Back of the head, front of head). For that post, the body will begin to spasm uncontrollably for one post then the seal will wear away and the person can attack. This is effective for a finisher or a means to escape.
Chakra Cost: 14

Name: Kinetic Reversal Seal
Rank: B-A
Type: Fuuinjutsu
Range: Close Range (0m – 5m)
Element: N/A
Description: After performing the necessary hand seals the user's hand will glow fingers with chakra. To apply the seal all the user needs to touch a surface and rotate his hand 90 degrees clockwise to activate it. Once active a Kinetic Reversal Seal reverses all kinetic energy above a basic level within 10ft of the seal itself. Anything with that takes more force than is involved in brisk walking, crouching or performing a hand seal is reversed by the seal on the originator of the action. Punches, kicks, even weapon strikes will have their kinetic energy turn back on the originator with potentially devastating effects. Jutsu are likewise affected though only so far as their Kinetic energy is concerned. With this seal is active punches intended at the target will own harm oneself and wind jutsu designed to knocked the victim off the feet have a tendency to send the user flying instead. This particular seal is commonly used in training to test genin reflexes, by placing it on a wall and asking unsuspecting genin to throw kunai at it only for the kunai to fly back the way they came as the draw closer. There are two variants of this Seal a basic variant that costs a B rank worth of Jutsu the affects all actions that pass within 10ft of it and an A rank one which involves an additional or more complicated seal superimposed over the top. This further seal nullifies the affects of the original with regard to the creator’s action by designing it not to activate in relation to the users chakra signature. In such way the user can pass within the 10ft are and not be affected by the seals startling properties. The seal lasts until destroyed or removed.

Name: Hi Hira Suiryoku | Fire Palm Thrust
Rank: A
Type: Fuuinjutsu | Offense
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m) - Long (10m+)
Element: Katon
Description: Painted on each of the user’s palms is one half of a fuuinjutsu seal. Because only one half of the seal is painted on, the user may paint half of another seal on the palms without neutralizing the effects of this Fuuinjutsu. When the user slams their hands together, the seal connects, taking in applied Katon element chakra and converting it into the jutsu. A short while (about three seconds) after the hands clap, the user must position themselves to avoid being blown back by inertia once their attack launches. Should they fail to do so, recoil may take effect and throttle the user back. By forming a “Hadoken” type of maneuver with the hands (having both hands joined at the wrist and facing outward), the user is able to launch a concentrated ball of fire about 30cm in diameter from the space between both palms. This fireball can travel no more than 15m before dispersing, but if it makes contact with a solid surface, it will forcibly explode to create a large dome of fire about 2m in diameter, capable of easily setting clothes and people on fire; and giving powerful third degree burns if the target is directly struck. Second degree burns are given to those within the blast range, and first if just outside the fire dome. Though powerful, the jutsu is fairly simple to evade due to its small size and long preparation time.

Name: Boueki Fuuin | Quarantine Seal
Rank: A
Type: Fuuinjutsu
Range: Max. 100m² (10m x 10m square)
Element: -
Description: After prewriting four identical seals, and wrapping them either around a kunai and throwing it, or placing each ten meters apart into a square, the user is then able to perform a short string of hand seals to utilize this jutsu. The four seals extend barrier walls from one another to create a perfect barrier box, that extends no more than 4m into the air. The box is enclosed underground to prevent seismic entry, but open from above. The barrier itself is able to protect against jutsu of B-rank and below; though no more than 3 jutsu tops. A-rank jutsu will destroy the box, however the jutsu will also be cancelled in the process. Should a person attempt to strike the box directly, they will receive a rather painful stinging sensation. An A-ranked ninja with B-rank strength SCs can shatter the box easily, although the stinging does not fade. When one wall of the box is destroyed, the entire jutsu crumbles and the seals fade. The jutsu can be used both offensively and defensively, as to keep a person from escaping or keeping one safe.
Chakra Cost: 24 (5 per post)

Name: Kabe Nankan | Barrier Wall
Rank: A
Type: Fuuinjutsu
Range: 10m flat barrier
Element: -
Description: A variation of the Quarantine seal, the user creates the same exact seals necessary for the aforementioned jutsu, however only tosses two of the seals on the ground. After performing the rightful hand seals, a barrier wall will be made between the two seals, capable of protecting the user from jutsu up to B-rank; though no more than 3 separate jutsu. A-rank jutsu will also destroy the box, however the A-rank technique in question will be cancelled in the process. Striking the box directly sends a painful stinging sensation through the body, however an A-ranked ninja with B-rank strength SCs can shatter the barrier at the cost of stinging their hand. This jutsu is mainly used for defending against oncoming assaults; but can be seen as a waste of chakra compared to the Quarantine Seal, however it does not require a maintaining cost.

Name: Ninjutsu Grounding Seal
Rank: B-S
Type: Fuuinjutsu
Range: Medium Range (5m – 10m)
Element: N/A
Description: After forming the necessary handseals this rather unique seal has a rather colourful and at the same time unexpected affect. It grounds or rather absorbs any hostile Ninjutsu that passes within 30ft of it by causing the technique to revert to its raw chakra form and in a rather odd visual display be sucked as a stream of raw glowing blue chakra into the seal. Anything from fireballs to lightning can be affected in this manner and it’s not unheard for a fireball to fling at a seal master using such a seal only for it to stutter before the end, stop burning and return to its base chakra form before being absorbed into the seal.

B Rank: 15m blast radius
A Rank: 30m blast radius
S Rank: 50m blast radius

Unfortunately despite many attempts to the no is known way of recycling the chakra locked in the seal to restore one's own reserves.

Chakra Cost: 23

Name: Kanzen'na Karada Mahi - Full Body Paralysis Seal
Rank: A
Type: Fuinjutsu
Range: Close (0M)
Element: N/A
Description: This fuin requires the user to create five special tags, placing one upon each limb of an opponent before placing the final one on their sternum. Typically speaking, this is tricky to do in battle, but not entirely impossible. Once the seals on in place, the user activates the Fuin, and locks the opponent's body in place. For 3 posts, the target will be completely paralyzed, incapable of so much as blinking. At this point, the user can finish off the foe at their leisure. Additionally, the target is still capable of feeling pain, just unable to respond to it; good for use in torture and interrogation.
Chakra Cost: 23CP (6CP per post)

Rank: D-S
Type: Fuuinjutsu
Range: Close (0m-5m), Mid (5m-10m), Far (10m+)
Element: N/A (If it was true manipulation, it would be Suiton)
Description: It’s truly a simple seal. The idea is really to contain a large amount of water into a seal, containing it for a long period of time. The rank varies by the amount of water that is contained in one seal. Altogether, the user can have four seals max with this type of Fuuinjutsu.
D-rank: Area of a small pond

Rank: D-B
Type: Taijutsu
Range: Close (0m)
Element: Raiton
Description: Concentrating lightning chakra into their hand, the user strikes their enemy with a strong, open-palmed strike. Depending on the level of chakra concentrated, the assault can act akin to a taser at D-rank, momentarily stunning the opponent, a more powerful shock at C-rank, momentarily stunning the opponent and numbing the area around the blow for one post, and an even more powerful shock at B-rank, inflicting partial paralysis if struck on a limb, the limb being paralyzed from the shock for one post. A full body strike would only greatly numb the opponent's torso for a single post, afflicting the area of the strike with first degree burns, and inflicting minor internal damage if struck directly over an organ.

Although it is true Alyasha the Sage came from the Fourth House, Alyasha the Breaker is sort of the opposite of his long gone ancestor. The Breaker part of the title is from his younger days as a fighter. Being a pragmatic fighter as a young man, Kyuseishu was always fond of disabling his opponent by using the objects around him.

Kyu is the epitome of the man who is alpha and is not ashamed to flaunt that aura whenever it can benefit him. His Type A personality, matched with his staggering appearance makes him stand out. He stands at 6'4 (194.05cm to be exact). Anyone who has ever seen Kyu knows that one has to look up to look into his eyes and there are very few men who is the same height as him. He is a man who can use his height to his advantage. Only when he identify the weaker subject does he use his height and cast a shadow over him. What gives him even more of intimidation would be his size.

Coming from the Kuro Clan, the Fourth house has always specialize in warfare. The physiology of their clan has always adapted based on this particular specialty. His father, grandfather, great-grandfather all the way down to Alyasha the Sage have very muscular build and Kyuseishu keeps that genetic tradition. From the neck, all the way down to the calves is a man who carefully molds the body to absolute perfection. His maintaining weight is around 220lbs. He has been known to gain weight on purpose in order to gain muscle, the heaviest he's been was 250lbs. The lightest he's been was when he was twenty-five at 195lbs.

It isn't hard to see the attractiveness in his face. Perhaps it is the full fledged beard and the long locked hair that gives him the gruff exotic look. Or the fact that it is also a rarity to see his dark tone of skin in Kirigakure which is famous for having a majority of their people with pale complexion. It is a surprise to see he has very little scaring over his face. Through the many fights he has encountered and engaged, his face has remained relatively smooth. He does have a feint scar over his right eye that seems more of a soft birthmark. Again, this ties back to his fondness of his body. The inner must represent the outer and so he takes great care of his face, his beard and his locks. When he's needing to be professional, we see the beard oiled and combed and locs freshly washed and lightly pulled back. Having locs all of his life, Kyuseishu has always In public, it is very rare to see his hair let loose. He keeps the habit of letting his hair down whenever he needing to relax and show a calmer and cooler side.</div>
<span style="margin-bottom: 10px; display: block; border-bottom: 1px solid #7a3027; font-family: Georgia; font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; text-align: right; text-transform: uppercase;">[color=#7a3027]ATTIRE:[/color] </span><div style ="padding: 20px;">During his professional visits, he is a man who has a wide variety of clothes for the occasion. The wealth of his family plus the wealth he has gained personally sees to that he has a large collection of clothes to offer. But he does have a bit of a preference. Because of his skin tone, he tends to wear colors that will stand out. Red, orange, yellow, purple and blues are just a few colors that he prefers mixing in simple neutral colors such as black or white. More often than not, Kyuseishu has been seen wearing plain clothing but whenever he wants to be unseen he'll choose plain clothing.

His jounin attire is nothing short of typical. What makes it different is that he has a red sash that is four feet long he usually carries around with him at all times. When placed correctly-around his waist or around his arm- it shows the fourth house symbol of the Kuro clan, the image of a lion embroidered in gold. Another thing he wears most if not all the time is a necklace that is made out of lion's tooth. Engraved on it is a name written in a forgotten tongue only few people in his house would know. A simple gift he received after he became the main leader of his house.

His wardrobe has a tendency of changing from mission to mission. His attire will mostly consist of the attire of the jounin when it comes to diplomacy. He feels it necessary to keep true to the village he represents whenever politics comes into play. Diplomacy of a special kind results in him wearing one of his all time favorite suits. He wears a midnight black suit, custom made and fitted to Kyuseishu size and height. The cufflinks are made out of gold with a tiny ruby within it. On the back of the black vest is the embroidery of the lion, his house's symbol. in purple. He has one vest that has the same symbol only in red whenever he has a red tie. The suit was perfected for him by a long time friend of The Creed. As Kyuseishu puts it "It was a favor for a favor".

When it comes to more carefully orchestrated missions like Assassinations and espionage missions his clothing tends to be a bit tricky. Perhaps that isn't the right word for it. The missions involving assassinating and espionages tend to have a bit more...discretion on his part. More often than not, Kyuseishu will devise his wardrobe either on the spot or have it all laid out and prepared. Such is where he'll produce clothing that may resemble a villager or a farmer if the place the mission is taking place is far from the city. In the city, his means of camouflage revolves around urban wear. The classic baggy pants and hoodie has been a personal favorite of means of just getting information. Looking like a bum that just lost his house or a threatening goon. With assassinations, in particular, he wears an all black jounin attire with the added addition of a hood that covers most of his features said for his beard (if it isn't trimmed down). Because of his height and size this can come off as extremely intimidating to those victims taken by his hand and also effective for night time assassinations (which is when he does most of his killing). He doesn't usually have any special weapons when it comes to the killing. He's known to use his hands as his tool. However, special consideration is taken when he wants to travel light. He has two special slots within the jacket that carries two kunai. There is nothing particularly special about these kunai, only that he keeps these two for the sake of slicing the victims neck from ear to ear.</div>

The foundation has to set in and build the bridge that'll lead up the man he is known today.
From the beginning, the core of Alyasha was installed into him by his father Yachazy'al. His background is like most fathers coming from the Fourth House of the Kuro Clan. He was raised as a warrior, trained and conditioned to be the perfect warrior in all aspects of life. Like most men of the fourth house, they did not hinder themselves to the battlefields of the world but the mind as well. Each warrior would make sure their minds were just as sharp as their blades on the battlefield and Alyasha's father was no exception. Yachazy'al was always a different man of the sort, an eccentric of the sort. Yachazy'al saw the infrastructure of his clan and his family personally on a different playing field. The fighting style that had given strength to their clans centuries ago must not only be restrained to two aspects: Both body and mind. The spirit must also become powerful as well. He wasn't trying to do something new but return their house back to its former glory. But the house's mind was still arrogant and did not wish for their teachings to change. If Yachazy'al couldn't implement this into his brothers then he'll do it with his sons. Yachazy'al would eventually raise three sons: Alyasha, Dany'al, and Mashah. From there, he taught his sons the importance of the three in one concept. The body is weak without the mind, the mind is powerless without the spirit and the spirit is nothing without the body. Perhaps it was the way he taught it that made these three brothers leaders among the giant clan.

From the beginning, his mind was crafted to be a powerful leader. He was crafted by his father to not only lead people but to lead his life accordingly and with no masters. Alyasha was set at a young age to be the rock that most people seek out whenever they call for a leader. He's always been strong, even among his two brothers, his strength always shone from the early recesses of his life to the man who is called "Kyuseishu".

His two brothers will tell anyone that Alyasha is the embodiment of power. Throughout their entire lives, the three brothers would fight over dominance and Alyasha was the one who conquered. Knowing he can conqueror his own two brothers, who are strong in their own way, he always felt he could conquer anything and everything. With his brothers, he had different tact for domination. He understood that each person is different and each undertaking of this dominance has taught him to be tactful. Over the course of his life he learn to be smart on his feet, learned when to take the challenge and when to retreat for another day. He learn what risks to take and how to manage each risk. He has failed much in this battle of wits but experience molded him into the impressive man that he is today. Alyasha understands that the mind is just as deadly a battlefield as any type of warfare. The difference is that mind warfare leaves more scars and if you don't learn early to heal them up then you'll die.

He can mask this trait well. As a young teen, this power aura use to influence much of his actions and made him out be a power hungry individual who would turn into a tyrant. Alyasha understood that many people in this world can also fear this trait. Many think that if one has this personality then they are either swoon by power. Such was the case of many clansmen in the Kuro clan and was usually discourage. Alyasha did not want this part of him to die. In his eyes, this trait is the foundation. It makes him who he is. The thought of replacing this want for power and dominance into something else was indeed foreign and to . Alyasha understood that this power-hungry trait had to be release into some other venue.

[i]A Man Who Charms:[/i] The game of seduction didn't seem like the venue a man who built his entire soul for warfare but Alyasha say this in a different light. Most see the game of seduction as a way to get to either the different sex or the same sex. Alyasha, always being fond of the women, saw the challenge of seducing enticing but always focused his time and energy towards political power and influence over the seduction game. But nevertheless he found himself being a natural. He learned that he had the ability to coax his words with mystery, never giving too much away at the first meeting and always seeming to be far off and enigmatic. He understood that if he did too much mystery then the woman of interest would not seek him out. He had to have the perfect balance and he learned this all well at the first two tries. Other than his immediate family and a few close associates, Alyasha has always been quick. Too quick for the likes of him. It only takes him one or two tries for him before he shows understanding then mastery. He reached the point where many women found his enigmatic self tantalizing to the point where they were trying to find out more about him. Once they were ensnared he could do whatever he want with them. Even today, this particular art is just an extension of his almost limitless arsenal of mental warfare tactics. This seduction he can use not just on his women but men too. If he wants to seduce people to be on his side then he can do so. If he can use his words to turn people against each other he can. He can use his skills to raise up an army or destroy a nation. But this did not lessen the power hungry individual. It only made him hungrier. As he was getting closer to his late teens to his early twenties he felt the increasing pull of wanting to have more power.

[i]A Man Who Seeks:[/i] Knowledge is the fuel that nourishes the mind. As one who has sought the true mastery of the body, it is only natural for him to be able to have true mastery of the mind. It would not be unlikely for any one of his brothers to see him in the catacombs for his forefathers in the off regions of Kaze no Kuni where there are ancient scrolls laid among the dead. It was neither strange for his family to see him also in the libraries studying the ancient text of the emperors of the Kuro empire, their scholars writing down all esoteric languages and verses of their times. From the looks of him, no one would assume he was the reading type much less a historian. But many are surprise to know that he has extensive knowledge of shinobi history, the history of his great ancestor Alyasha the sage, the formation of The Creed, the foundation of Shantakai and its first leader. He knows the deep history of the clans of all the major countries plus the clans that are non-existent today. It is this extensive knowledge that makes him a powerful asset not only in the village he resides today but the organization he works for. Alyasha is nothing short of a book with a rich history.

[i]The Outside Man:[/i] Alyasha doesn't suffer from the breaking of the three faces: The man who he sees, the man in which he wants people to view and the man people see. At an early age, he has learned to combined these three faces into one and the face that people usually see is that masculinity. Many people say it is the King personality, the type A, the one that is confident, the one that is aggressive when need be, the one where people look when they are in need of a leader. He exhibits this trait for the purpose of giving people the show they want.
He doesn't show his aggression too often. For the most part, he is the 'strong, silent' type. Usually his aggression is shown in battle where the strong and silent type almost amplifies. He becomes a blank slate, a man who cannot be read through the face only through actions. There are the rarest times where the high of the adrenaline makes him want to laugh and shout. The excitement of balancing oneself on the verge of life and death excites him. When blood begins to spill from his body, the high of dying entices him, almost the point of sexual pleasure. He has only experienced this when he fought Kurayami, Heiki, the second Shantakai leader and his second brother Dany'al.
He is secretive by nature, only seen by the most elite of men. Even among the elite, he is somewhat of a person who is rarely trusted. Alyasha puts people of such eliteness on edge whenever he knows a secret. On the one hand, he has information that could either make a person of power rise up or break that person down to nothing. As said, he is a person who loves power and will do whatever it is necessary to gather more whether to better himself, better someone of interest or to break them down.</div>

With every man that comes into power, there is a boy who sits on the outside step waiting for their father to come home and embrace him after a long day. The father would pick up his son and inspect seeing dirt smeared around his face, small cuts on his arm and purple bruises all over. The father would always smile, kiss him on the top of his forehead and set him down saying "You'll be a king one day." And every day that young boy would admire his father. His eyes would gleam every time he watched his father worked. Whenever he would pick him up close to his face he would enjoy the scruffy feel of his beard. He knows the feel of pulling on his father's hair, tugging away at the long dreadlocks he imagine getting one day. He was a boy who loved his father and the boy would eventually surpass his father.

Alyasha heard this through his entire early childhood. All from the time he was able to recognize speech to the young pre-teen years, he was told he was going to be a king one day. Born thirty-three years prior to the current events, Alyasha of the Fourth House was born in a sandy deserts of the Kaze no Kuni. His mother, Hannayah and his father, Yachazy'al have lived in Kaze no Kuni most of their lives travelling whenever they thought it would benefit the entire family. The house filled up relatively fast over the course of a few years. Alyasha would soon not be alone. Two years later, his brother Dany'al would be born and then a year later his youngest brother Mashah was born. The three brothers were relatively close. Alyasha, being the oldest and perhaps the strongest of the three, was protective of his brothers at first. Dany'al was the stubborn brother and strong willed to boot. Even though the three of them would compete on some level, whether it was fighting hand to hand, fighting with Ninjutsu or some other field it was Dany'al who was steady competition of his eldest brother. Mashah was generally the sensitive one out of the three and it would be Alyasha would be handle his problem whether it be an older. Mashah did compete with Alyasha but the eldest was victorious throughout their childhood. This competition was always encouraged by their father. Hannayah was not exactly too keen on the rivalry but she could not deny the effects it had on her three children. Life among this small family was good. It was not the center of perfection but in their eyes it was perfect. And perhaps that was the best thing for them because it gave them an outlook for the years to come.

When Sunagakure was still a powerful village, Alyasha and his brothers had joined the academy learning the ways of the shinobi. Alyasha first joined followed by his Dany'al. It was around this particular time, when Alyasha was six and Dany'al was four was when his father and many men in the fourth house of Kuro began their training as well. These particular years as a young boy wasn't exactly the funniest times in his life. The academy in Suna was more of a day of relief rather than a chore most children saw it as. Before he even joined the academy, Alyasha had started his training two years prior. He was used to waking up at six in the morning, training with his cousins and other members of his clan to the evening coming back home to dinner where he was tired and sore most days. At the age of four, he was dealing with the excruciating training regiment his clan has been giving to their young boys and girls since ancient times.

When he entered the academy, it came to almost a relief. The training regiment did not pause all the sudden. On the contrary. Alyasha remembers the training was spread throughout the weak and it only got harder. The only day he got was the last day of the week. Even then, he knew rest would not come as the thought of training the next day filled his mind. He remember coming into his fourth academy class, eating a breakfast his mother gave him that was made to energize, listening to the teacher talk about the root of ninjutsu and the relief that washed him almost made him fall out of his chair. He remembered the days of getting out of class hoping his instructor at home would forget about him and he could go home and rest. But there was never a time where his instructor forgot about his training. For the next two years in the academy, he balanced between the life of becoming a shinobi and the life of becoming a warrior in his clan. Soon, he did not know what tiredness was. It became a part of him. He knew waking up, training, eating and sleeping. This lather, rinse, repeat process continued until he graduated from the academy becoming a genin where the training in his clan only intensified.

This intensity was only done to Alyasha and Dany'al however, who graduated at the age of seven. Both brothers were watched daily by the Creed members in Sunagakure along with their leader father and two Shikyo members. They all saw that these two boys were special in their own ways with Alyasha having such a domineering personality and Dany'al having the willpower surpassing most grown men. Yachazy'al was setting in motion the next line of leaders for the Creed. Both brothers were fit to began their initiation and training with the Creed. When Alyasha looks back, he comments on how they realize their strengths come from this vital moment in their lives. It was around this time where Alyasha and Dany'al would have their lives set to be an agent and eventual leaders of The Creed.

As genin, the Alyasha had the definite skill to be anything. The village of Suna saw Alyasha as a bright kid whose skill in taijutsu were top in the class. For a young boy of nine years old, he was quite fast along with strength many say made his taijutsu fearsome. There was not a single genin in Sunagakure who could match his taijutsu besides his little brother Dany'al. Dany'al could match Alyasha in some fights they were in but Alyasha was the better fighter. Alyasha knew Dany'al's adeptness was with his ninjutsu. Alyasha has always been fond of Ninjutsu (later fuuinjutsu and Ninshuu) but it was his younger brother who surpassed him in almost every form of Ninjutsu. Alyasha has always been envious of his little brother's genius level prowess but a big part of him has always made him proud that his brother was so good at it. Dany'al had a mutual understanding and healthy envy of his brother's taijutsu. Individually, their powers were formidable at the time. When the two were together in a team, their synergy was unmatched. The two brothers were partnered together until they reached the age where they both became chunin. Alyasha was twelve and Dany'al was ten. It was then that The Creed saw it fit for them to begin their official training and induction into the organization.

Hanzo
Yachay'al had initially set it up so when Alyasha and Dany'al would be of jounin rank they would be fully integrated into The Creed where they were trained to learn the arts of assassination, espionage, and infiltration. The process started the moment Alyasha and Dany'al split a part where the former stood among the ranks of Iwagakure while the latter was set in the dark corner of ANBU of Konohagakure. The two brother who were a ferocious team since early childhood now faced their challenges alone. For Alyasha, this set him apart from his ninjutsu genius brother. The task he was bestowed would help him rise in the ranks of The Creed and open a new chapter in his personal history.

He had taken the name "Hanzo" during his few years in Iwagakure. Learning how to act a certain way so that no one from his past village and current village would recognize him, he became the hard-headed and stubborn man that many would identify him as. He was still a young teenager but his gifts in acting made him a natural in the role he played. His teachers were amazed at how his peers were easily fooled by this newcomer who looked different from all the rest yet he acted as if he had lived with them since birth. Alyasha will admit that this was where he gained many followers, both in Iwagakure and within The Creed itself. It was during this time where he met the fuuinjutsu user by the name of Heiki. This man, who would later become a puppet for the Creed, began to show Alyasha the ways of sealing techniques. This was foreign to Alyasha. One who was born and bred to be a warrior with his body now learning the modern seals of the shinobi and the ancient seals of the samurai and ninshuu monks was a 180. Regardless of its foreign nature, Alyasha was soon able to pick up on fuuinjutsu but it wasn't because it he found modern day seals interesting. On the contrary, he found them repetitive and dull picking them up with the simplest of ease. It was the ancient seals that he found fascinating. Alyasha, under the Hanzo persona, would find markings and languages within the ancient catacombs of forgetton dead lords and emperors during his missions with his Iwa shinobi. With these new understanding of seals he felt it would be necessary to find out more of these ancient seals.

"Xing"

It was when Alyasha turned twenty that he took his way towards Amegakure no sato. At this age, he was a respective member of The Creed rising up from the novice assassin to one of the top commanders within the organization. He found that during his missions in Iwagakure revealed the heavy truths of forbidden seals that seem to tell an ancient story. It is one that was eerily foreboding that never sat well with Alyasha. When he sent a request to travel to Amegakure, he was given an immediate clearance for the go ahead. He found that the persona he had in Iwa had to change and soon turned into the persona of a man who despised the villages and their beliefs. So came the man who would know himself as Xing, the mercenary of hatred. He admits that this time frame was a bleak one, gaining more enemies than allies. Amegakure wasn't exactly his funniest memory but he knew he wasn't there for anything but his own personal gain. He was there to find the esoteric knowledge of fuuinjutsu and the ties it had to his clan. Deep within the pipes that courses through Amegakure's infrastructure was the beginning of many questions and answers to his relentless search.

He found himself transferring again to another country and into the village hidden in the clouds. Because of its stricter codes and relentless security, Alyasha once again change into a different persona becoming not a shinobi of the sand or rock or even a mercenary of the rain. He became a shop keeper. A man who started his first small business for rare books. Alyasha kept the Xing name knowing that it would not traverse into these lands. Kumogakure has always been known for having people of his skin color, among their ranks so it was not much of a hassle to get inside and start a small business. He grew in favor with a few of shinobi, many people who began to really like him and his quiet ways. He kept this act for the next four years until he was twenty-seven years of age. When he was getting close to the answers that he was seeking, he found he was at another dead end and would soon leave Kumogakure for another country.

This is where the history of Kirigakure comes into play.

Kyuseishu
This part of Alyasha's history is...sketchy. There are very few people that knows what he was doing during his time infiltrating into Kiri only that he stayed in the background a lot during the beginning reign of Inoshi. As Sandaime was putting in his administration in the village, Alyasha formed his own administration within in, hiding away until the time was right for him to join the next Mizukage. It was around this time that his father had stepped down and it was now him and his two brothers that had the chance opportunity to take his place. It didn't take Alyasha long to put his own administration within The Creed and before his brothers even had a chance to lay in opposition, Alyasha had many supporters and soon became the one of the four heads that runs The Creed as a whole. This brought tension with his brother Dany'al but they both knew Dany'al would have done the same thing if the role had switched. Dany'al, skilled in the art of ninjutsu and infiltration, did not rise as fast like his brother. It was when Alyasha became a supreme commander that Dany'al was just a low-ranking officer. Alyasha was influential while his brother was the opposite.

It was this time frame that Kirigakure was ready for its downfall and it was in need of a new Mizukage. The disappearance of certain nobles led way for Alyasha's hidden reign. Alyasha then began to resurface acting as an aristocrat who would act as a shadow savior to the economic world. He had the funds to help bring businesses from down under and used his influence from The Creed to bring families that were once bankrupt out. He became the hidden hand that would help stabilize the small country along with a few other individuals and the current Mizukage himself. Now at thirty-two, the man now walks under the administration of Yondaime Mizukage, Tetsuo Hiroshi both as a seemingly loyal subject and an assassin who shows no fear in the face of opposition.

This is Kyuseishu.</div>

Every cloud formation that Yasha saw sank the dwindling hope of the next day being halfway decent for the task he was given. He went to sleep that night with the wind howling outside and the thought of the cold penetrating his skin. He turned in his bed and caught a glimpse of what the world was outside. The clouds released the snowfall blanketing his view, the winds cried and howled like the moans of the dead wanting to escape the grip of death. He closed his eyes and tried to think thoughts that were not the cold, but as he fell into twilight he felt an ounce of him thinking about snow.

His dreams in beginning were shallow ; he had dreams tha had no flow, like he was looking at abstract art and the art was meshing the images into one. The one dream that woke him up consisted of him sitting in the snow with nothing on but pants. He was position in a meditative stance. He knew this because he felt his left foot getting numb and no matter where he meditated his left foot would always fall asleep. In that beginning span he felt at peace. The confusion that he felt before had faded. He took in deep breaths and let his mind go blank. The short span of time of peace made him nothing.

He felt something cold hit his shoulder. He opened his eye and saw one snowflake settle into a drop of water. He looked up and saw that it was beginning to snow. It came down in a small wave wetting the ground and paint a white landscape. Where the sky was filled with small clouds changed to the black clouds that was ready to release its load onto the earth. Yasha looked closely at the clouds, In dreams, one could control how far their eyes can see and at that moment he was able to zoom into the clouds most outer detail. He saw, for an instance, the vague resemblance of a face.

The clouds began to pull away from this face making it the only visible cloud in the sky and started to orbit it . The clouds began to fuse with the face refining it, shaping the image into something distinct. Yasha saw the rectangular jaw shape up to a sharp nose and full cheeks. The forehead began to smooth and the eyes started to pop out. The lips parted into a smile then a grin. A shit eating grin.

Kudara stared back at him. He opened his mouth and let out a roar that was coldfire and inhuman. Then Yasha realized it wasn't a roar but laughter. He could see the Adam's apple move up and down as the laughter shook the landscape.

The wind roared into life and the snow began sweeping from every direction. It was about time to leave. His brain signaled his legs to move but it got nothing in response. He looks down and saw himself sitting in the same meditative position he had when he first 'arrived' here. He tried to signal his body to move but again nothing happen. The dream had full control of his conscious. He was the puppet and his dream the puppeteer.

The snowfall just kept coming and coming and Yasha tried to move his body but it was for naught. Never in life did he understand the sensation of panic. Only in a dream could he ever feel vulnerable and mortal. He could feel his heart jump in his chest, furthering the anxiety wanting him to wake up. The puppeteer wanted him to experience this. It wanted him to stay there and experience this feeling of helplessness and fear. The snow began to pile, first covering his legs, then his stomach and chest. Move dammit move! His body did a slight twitch and he could feel his muscles strain but he was cemented down to the ground. Snow reached to his neck then his mouth. It got in his nose, his eyes and his ears.

Then the panic intensified

Like some cruel joke, the puppeteer let go of Yasha and he had control of his body. His body felt as if he had trained for days straight, each muscle burned and ached as he moved. He was suffocating feeling his throat throb just two breaths away from closing. Still panic stricken, he tried to climb out. His hand was reaching at the thick snow with desperate, grabby hands when he felt ice spear through his entire palm.

Sharp, stabbing pain filled in his head and for a moment he thought he was going to black out in his dream. He looked up, not knowing how he did, and he saw his hand was was torn to shreds, the muscles coming out of his palms and fingers. He turned his hand around to see the back of it and saw the bones had come out in an irregular pattern.

He opened his mouth to speak but no words seem to come out. He closed it then and blinked. He remembered something he read awhile back. Something about how to control fear. Focus he thought. Focus...

The pain in his hand started to burn. He felt his mind wanting to focus on that but he had to keep focusing on nothing. Focus on that fear...focus so that the fear runs through you like a current moving through you and fear itself is simply another current fusing with me.

He closed his eyes, held it for a second then looked up and saw his hand was back to normal. The pain had vanished. He moved his head around slowly and saw that he was back in the open area in which he was meditating.

He took a deep breath and closed his eyes again listening to his breathing, listening to the sound of nothing and letting his thoughts drift into nothingness.

Everything had went dark for a moment, the dream faded to nothing and then light pressed on his eyes. The sound of wind broke the last of the dream as he slowly realized he was back in reality. He woke up slowly looking around to see that he was in his bed, looking at his pillow that was wet with sweat. He sat up to wipe the sweat off his face then on his neck. He looked down to see his entire shirt was soaked from the neck down. He slowly peeled the shirt off his wet upper body. He got up and looked at the space heater he forgot to turn off. It was making a soft humming noise as Yasha approached it to turn it off.

"I hate these kinds of days"

Yasha was the second person to receive the mission from Atsuhiko on the winter storm's 'rest' days. The invitation to the apartment was unusually sudden. Atsuhiko is a formal individual who usually asked Yasha to come to his apartment at a certain time and on a certain day. He made it clear that he didn't want him at his apartment all the time nor did he want surprise visits from him (His last surprise visit ended them at a hospital and Atsuhiko's complaints for the next few weeks on how his hand was still hurting). Yasha knew that it was a trust issue. Even after Yasha told him he would be willing to be a blade for him, Atsuhiko was far from taking that statement as the final say and their camaraderie would begin anew.

He grew accustomed to this schedule to the point where his sudden invitation that afternoon from one of the servants working that day actually surprised him. "He wants to meet you right away", the servant who took the message had said, and Yasha took it with some urgency. One for the fact that this was the first time Atsuhiko had ever wanted to see him on an unscheduled day and two it was the fact that he was just curious. He left his home to arrive at his apartment in a flak jacket that was heavy in fleece and thick black pants that he would wear today. It was the quickest visit to date he remembered. Yasha came in and was told by Atsuhiko to meet him at the docks at a certain date. They would be overseeing cargo from one ship to another and be guarding it from pirates.

It seem rather easy. Yasha was more than willing to do a 'life up heavy thing and put it down' type of job. The threat of pirates coming in to raid added a bit of flavor to it and Yasha was more than accepting of the task. The way Atsuhiko delivered the information seem rather-secretive. Atsuhiko seem hesitant to ask Yasha if he was willing to take the mission, adding ums and eh to his rather formal vernacular.

"Look just don't ask questions about it ok? Just come." Atsuhiko had said and Yasha just shrugged saying ok and leaving it at that. Yasha had noticed the secrecy but he didn't think on until he found the same flak jacket and thick woolen pants in his closet.

"I wonder if I made the right choice saying I'll be his blade to that guy sometimes."

He got dressed into the same outfit. He found a woolen hooded coat to go underneath his fleece jacket and black boots that was insulated from ankle to toe. He opened up a second closet and pulled out the quiver of arrows he had in stored. Next to it was the short bow, the quarterstaff and nodachi all hanged up. He grabbed the bow by the grip and slid it back underneath the quiver. He had grown fond of the bow, practicing his archery for the sake of keeping his distance if the need ever presented himself. Atsuhiko was one who preferred long range. His fondness for Ninjutsu made him love the back line and cause havoc before they got close. The strategy didn't sound too bad to Yasha but he rather conserve energy rather than expend it especially on a day like that.

The wind was still howling. Yasha went to the balcony door and open the door to rushing snow. Snow came into his room and the wind blew anything that wasn't held down. He looked back and saw the time. He was going to be late to his annoyance but he could make due. He put a hand on his backside and felt the pouch containing his kit. He was satisfied to know he had everything still in there. He closed the door and jumped down from the balcony into the snow. He set off with the wind in his face and the snow coming down.

The bitterness seem to intensify as he reached the docks. The snow seem to die away only a little but the cold was sinking in. As he got closer and closer to the water, the wind chill dropped into the negatives making breathing a chore. The run to the docks gave him some warmth but only a little. The cold bit him and he could feel his body crying for warmth and heat. Yasha did not have a complete hatred for the cold. He wasn't particularly fond of it either. He would rather do things in the spring, summer or fall. Harsh winter like this made everything depressing. Training felt lackluster, motivation felt grey. Sleeping was the only thing he felt like doing and even that was depressing as his dreams were depressing. He arrived at the docks and walked past the different sections looking for the right ship. Each ship was stationed by a dock and each dock was labeled with a letter and number. He walked past a variety of docks, finding ships that lacked cargo to ones full of them, evading sailors that were carrying cargo off from one ship to another. Yasha had a feeling this would've been overwhelming if he didn't have a sense of direction.

He arrived at the appropriate docks with Atsuhiko standing in between a women with gorgeous red hair and a man who looked built and molded by the sea. He walked over and the sea captain saw him walk up. His eyes peered at Yasha, inspecting him like he would inspect a catch of fish "You late too? Is this what the shinobi of mist give example of? With tardiness when it comes to important tasks?" his voice was gruff and already irritable.

Yasha inspected the man to get a better understanding of him. He was in his fifties, the grey stubble on his face made his haphazard face look old and weary. The hair was spotted with grey and silver that could only be obtained by the stress of the sea for more than three decades. His accent sounded both country and sea-worthy, the dialect had a shrew undertone to it. Yasha nodded his head "My...apologies sir." He did not make an excuse nor did he care to make one up. The captain snuffed at him.

He turned to Atsuhiko "Atsuhiko-san" he said curtly. Even outside in the bitter cold Atsuhiko looked dressed like nobility. He looked at the woman. Immediately he swallowed a thought in his mind and knew not to cross her. She presented herself, for better or worse, as a person of mild authority. Her aura was strong, someone who had more experience than Atsuhiko. She looked powerful. She looked pissed.

He bowed to her slightly "Kaguya, Yasha ma'am" He said politely. Even if he said it with warmth it wouldn't rid of that almost angry face she had on. She looked like an angry cat that was just dipped in freezing cold water. If looks could kill then both Yasha, Atsuhiko and the captain would've been six feet under already.</div>

Kyuseishu has always been a versatile fighter. His speciality of hand to hand makes him a scary force to be reckon with. Many are surprised (if they do not know him) how not only strong he is but his speed. For someone of his size and height, he is almost strength and speed that goes beyond the bounds of any normal man. Many soon realize that with this extreme strength and speed combined with his taijutsu expertise makes him one of the deadlier individuals in taijutsu. He still holds the title as master among his clan much to Kyuseishu dismay. During his younger days he learned the methods of each fighting style that has existed throughout history. While he does have the basic understanding of old styles, it is the new that he is fond of. The new styles of today that combined the methodical teachings of form with the practicality of combat on the battlefield that makes the new styles his general go-to. He tends to be pragmatic of the sort, grabbing anything, using anything as a weapon. He views his taijutsu not only with his fist, feet, knee, shin and elbow but rocks, broken bottle glass, tables, broken knives and swords as a mere extension of his body. This makes him look desperate but the fact is that he is uses any object as a weapon and use it well shows a complete mastery of certain object. How he holds it, how the shape of the object can change the way Kyuseishu fights with it. His body is meant to be a weapon and he'll use it. It has been ingrained in his mind since he was a young boy and he'll eventually pass this down to his children if he is lucky enough to survive.

[center]Heaven[/center]

He's always had an interested in the art of Ninjutsu. Learning the sealing techniques of both the old and new did bring out a new drive to him. As the young protege of the first Shantakai leader, he learned early on that fuuinjutsu is more just sealing thing away. The course of his training brought into his arsenal a plethora of offensive seals, defensive seals, seals to inhibit the body and mind, seals to unlock the full potential of the mind. All the seals in his arsenal has a distinct purpose and he utilizes all of the seals to the fullest potential. That being said, he has a great understanding of seals to the point of almost immediate identification. He treats each seal as he treats a mathematical formula. The right combination can create a deadly force to destroy. Another combination can protect the body from any harm.</div></div></div><div class="title" style="text-shadow:2px 1px 1px #7a3027,-1px 1px 0 #7a3027,1px -1px 0 #7a3027,-1px -1px 0 #7a3027,1px 1px 0 #7a3027,0px 0px 3px #7a3027;font-size:40px;font-family:georgia;color:#000;padding-top:10px;margin-left:245px;">SPECIAL CHARACTERISTICS:</div><div class="CONTENT2" style="background:#444;margin-left:260px;Height:560px;padding:10px; "><div id="Textbox" style="border:2px solid #7a3027 ; height: 550px; font-size:11px; background-color:#201c1b; color:#B7B7B7; font-family:georgia; overflow-y:auto; margin: 3px; text-align: justify;"><div style="padding:20px;">[b]Name:[/b] [Tier I] Enhanced Speed

Description:[/b] After creating a seal, the user may choose to add this battery seal to that ‘parent’ seal. The battery seal is loaded with a defined amount of chakra, and is painted next to the written seal, like an attachment. Once the seal has been activated, the battery seal kicks in and provides any chakra cost for maintaining the jutsu, until the chakra from the seal is depleted. This allows the user to utilize a seal without constantly focusing chakra on the seal, as the battery seal provides the chakra source. Once the seal runs out of chakra, or does not have an adequate amount to provide for 1 more posts worth of consumption; both this seal and the parent seal cancel, ending the Fuuinjutsu. The total amount of chakra consumed is still the same as if the user was constantly feeding chakra into the seal; but this way they do not have to resort to such an archaic tactic as constantly feeding chakra.

[b]Description:[/b] A specialized seal the involves creating five tags and spreading them around an area; four corner tags, while the fifth tag is place upon the user. So long as these tags are in place, they create a light, intagible barrier. Physically, this barrier is invisible, and does nothing to keep a foe out. However, should a foreign chakra signature cross the barrier, the fifth tag will flare up, alerting the user that their perimeter has been breached. Typically alerts the user simply by lighting up, though a user with the Raiton element can prep the seal to give them a small shock, or burn them with Katon if they possess that element. Doujutsu users, such as Sharingan and Byakugan, can see the barrier, provided their doujutsu is active.

[b]Element:[/b] Katon
[b]Description:[/b] A very simple seal created by Hikaru for the sole purpose of performing a complex “Kunai missile” technique. By placing a small seal on the end of a kunai (or any surface really), the user can apply a very minimal amount of chakra to propel this object forward a short distance. The mass of the object usually interferes with the distance, but a kunai can travel about 10m on average, without even being thrown. The benefit of using this seal, instead of throwing it, is of twofold. On one hand, the propelled item will generally go twice as fast using this jutsu than if thrown by hand. On the other hand, it allows the user to place a battery seal amidst this propulsion seal to extend the travel time greatly. As such, it can propel a kunai like a missile, 100m or more if necessary. The propulsion only works in one direction however, and thus it can only fly in a straight line.

[b]Description:[/b]Similar in concept to the 'Union of Senses Technique', this seal has far less of a combat or mission application due to the state required to aide in its utilization. To utilize this seal, requires two people, with the seal being placed upon the center of their forehead. Before the seal can be activated, both participants must maintain a seated or laying down position and attempt to enter a semi-meditative state. If they do not do so they present themselves to exposing their bodies to danger as they are under the influence of this seal, additionally this meditative state aids with the transference process listed below.

In essence this seal works similar to that of a Yamanaka technique or perhaps in the same manner that a Jinchuriki might enter the lucid dream state. In overly simple terms the seal temporarily seals one person's persona inside another. Upon entering this meditative state, one user must be designated a 'host', whilst the other is designated as a 'visitor'. The host allows the persona of the visitor to enter their mind via a method of transference which is aided by the meditative state both are under.

Within the host's perception, the visitor is capable of witnessing a reality created entirely by the host's mental ability. This is similar to the reality that is created as a representation for the sealing technique within the parameters with the lucid dreams state. However with that being said, those without a strong experience in thought control will often be at the victim of their memories or emotions and as such unwanted information might bleed through this granted perception.

When either the host or visitor wants the technique to end, they will simply snap their fingers which disrupts the alteration of perception and awakens them from their meditative state. Any physical damage suffered during this exchange does not effect either user mentally or physically [beyond the memory of it happening]. Given the nature of this technique it is impossible to use in any combat or dangerous situation. This seal can effect more than two people at a time but each person under the influence of the seal must be in the same meditative state.

[b]Element:[/b]-
[b]Description:[/b]Although complicated in theory, this technique is simple in function. In simple terms it acts as a network for the physical senses of the user or those under the influence of the seal. This seal requires at least two participants to accurately function, with one of the two acting as a receiver and the other acting as the transceiver, this can vaguely be likened to the relationship between a radio and a radio tower or perhaps a wi-fi router and a wi-fi receiver. After being placed on the forehead of both the user and one other person or persons, the the seal can then be activated to allow for the following effects:

The first of two possible effects is this: One of the people who wear the seal is capable of broadcasting one of their senses, this person is dubbed as the transceiver, to the others who also have donned the seal, these people are dubbed the receivers. In this method of usage, the transceivers broadcasted sense replaces that of the receiver. For example if Person A broadcasts their sense of hearing, then person B will lose their own sense of hearing and as such hear only what Person A does.

The Second of the two possible effects works in a similar manner, with each member sharing a net of senses. This means of course that each user under the influence of the seal broadcasts one specific sense and all users utilizing the seal receive each broadcast. This only works with one sense. For example if each member broadcasts their sense of sight then, every user in the seal network will be capable of perceiving the world from multiple angles as perceived by each Shinobi who is under the influence of the seal. This can be likened to changing the channels on a TV and with that being said, each user can only access one set of senses at the same time. For example, although person A is capable of seeing through the eyes of person B, C and D at any given time due to the network or union of sense. They are only able to see through the eyes of any of the people affected by the seal by switching their sense of vision from their own perception to that of another users. Any user of this seal can only see through one sense of sight at a time.

Of course, this technique comes with the obvious weakness that comes with the loss of any sense. If person A cannot perceive his surroundings while looking through the eyes of person B, then it becomes obvious that they are open for attack.

With the appropriate Animal Speaking SC, this technique can also be used on Animals who share a similar degree of perception.

Then, by sharpening the chakra around the user’s index, they can proceed to engrave into an object or person, the tattoo. While usually a tattoo will be painful, this tattooing procedure blends the ink with the skin (or other surface) to make it as painless as possible. While it does sting still, it’s not enough to effectively leave the user groaning in agony like a regular tattoo.

The mist can quickly fill rooms and even buildings, as well as act like a smoke pellet or smoke bomb, quickly covering large areas in the mist. This jutsu is a fuuinjutsu user's way to use the Kirigakure ninjutsu, creating a seal that causes a large torrent of chakra embedded mist to come about. The mist will last for five full posts, covering the area of combat, before dispersing at the beginning of the sixth post. Multiple seals may be placed.

By placing this kanji on a limb, the user is able to seal all chakra connectivity to that limb; leaving it disabled. This is effective for forcing a person to limp, or preventing them from performing jutsu. The seal lasts for as long as the user applies chakra to it, unless the enemy breaks it by overloading it with 18CP of chakra (14CP if they have Fuuinjutsu as a specialty). If this seal strikes the target’s chest, it will increase the chakra cost for all of the target’s jutsu by 5CP instead of disabling the entire body. If the head is struck, the seal will reduce 8CP from the target’s body before immediately breaking. The latter two effects are simply means of avoiding an auto-kill.

[b]Description:[/b] This seal, again, manipulates with the body itself again. It can be placed among him or on others but it is a generally offensive type of fuuinjutsu. What this seal initially does is that once it is placed on a certain location of the body (doesn't matter where, the arm, the hand, the leg, the feet), the kanji for spasm will form. For about a post, the muscle will begin a painful spasm on that specific part of the body. This can stop the body from moving and keep the person from attacking.

Again, this is only when made on contact. The most efficient way of stopping a person with this is to place the seal on the back of another person or brain (Back of the head, front of head). For that post, the body will begin to spasm uncontrollably for one post then the seal will wear away and the person can attack. This is effective for a finisher or a means to escape.

[b]Element:[/b] N/A
[b]Description:[/b] After performing the necessary hand seals the user's hand will glow fingers with chakra. To apply the seal all the user needs to touch a surface and rotate his hand 90 degrees clockwise to activate it. Once active a Kinetic Reversal Seal reverses all kinetic energy above a basic level within 10ft of the seal itself. Anything with that takes more force than is involved in brisk walking, crouching or performing a hand seal is reversed by the seal on the originator of the action. Punches, kicks, even weapon strikes will have their kinetic energy turn back on the originator with potentially devastating effects. Jutsu are likewise affected though only so far as their Kinetic energy is concerned. With this seal is active punches intended at the target will own harm oneself and wind jutsu designed to knocked the victim off the feet have a tendency to send the user flying instead. This particular seal is commonly used in training to test genin reflexes, by placing it on a wall and asking unsuspecting genin to throw kunai at it only for the kunai to fly back the way they came as the draw closer. There are two variants of this Seal a basic variant that costs a B rank worth of Jutsu the affects all actions that pass within 10ft of it and an A rank one which involves an additional or more complicated seal superimposed over the top. This further seal nullifies the affects of the original with regard to the creator’s action by designing it not to activate in relation to the users chakra signature. In such way the user can pass within the 10ft are and not be affected by the seals startling properties. The seal lasts until destroyed or removed.

[b]Element:[/b] Katon
[b]Description:[/b] Painted on each of the user’s palms is one half of a fuuinjutsu seal. Because only one half of the seal is painted on, the user may paint half of another seal on the palms without neutralizing the effects of this Fuuinjutsu. When the user slams their hands together, the seal connects, taking in applied Katon element chakra and converting it into the jutsu. A short while (about three seconds) after the hands clap, the user must position themselves to avoid being blown back by inertia once their attack launches. Should they fail to do so, recoil may take effect and throttle the user back. By forming a “Hadoken” type of maneuver with the hands (having both hands joined at the wrist and facing outward), the user is able to launch a concentrated ball of fire about 30cm in diameter from the space between both palms. This fireball can travel no more than 15m before dispersing, but if it makes contact with a solid surface, it will forcibly explode to create a large dome of fire about 2m in diameter, capable of easily setting clothes and people on fire; and giving powerful third degree burns if the target is directly struck. Second degree burns are given to those within the blast range, and first if just outside the fire dome. Though powerful, the jutsu is fairly simple to evade due to its small size and long preparation time.

[b]Description:[/b] After prewriting four identical seals, and wrapping them either around a kunai and throwing it, or placing each ten meters apart into a square, the user is then able to perform a short string of hand seals to utilize this jutsu. The four seals extend barrier walls from one another to create a perfect barrier box, that extends no more than 4m into the air. The box is enclosed underground to prevent seismic entry, but open from above. The barrier itself is able to protect against jutsu of B-rank and below; though no more than 3 jutsu tops. A-rank jutsu will destroy the box, however the jutsu will also be cancelled in the process. Should a person attempt to strike the box directly, they will receive a rather painful stinging sensation. An A-ranked ninja with B-rank strength SCs can shatter the box easily, although the stinging does not fade. When one wall of the box is destroyed, the entire jutsu crumbles and the seals fade. The jutsu can be used both offensively and defensively, as to keep a person from escaping or keeping one safe.

A-rank jutsu will also destroy the box, however the A-rank technique in question will be cancelled in the process. Striking the box directly sends a painful stinging sensation through the body, however an A-ranked ninja with B-rank strength SCs can shatter the barrier at the cost of stinging their hand. This jutsu is mainly used for defending against oncoming assaults; but can be seen as a waste of chakra compared to the Quarantine Seal, however it does not require a maintaining cost.

After the formation of the needed hand seals, the user will hold the hand up that contains the seal and seal another water based jutsu coming at them. This cannot seal S ranked jutsu, and the jutsu that is sealed cannot be released back onto the opponent(s). For example, should this jutsu be used against the Hidden Mist technique, it would be able to absorb the mist from the area by paying chakra. This jutsu, depending on the rank of the jutsu that is being absorbed, costs differing amount of chakra. Lastly, one has to have the water sealing seal come into "contact" with the jutsu that they are sealing; example would be touching the mist of the Hidden Mist jutsu, or touching a water clone.

[b]Name:[/b] Kaminari no Danmaku - Lightning Barrage
[b]Rank:[/b] A
[b]Type:[/b] Taijutsu
[b]Range:[/b] Close (0M)
[b]Element:[/b] Raiton
[b]Description:[/b] Generating large amounts of Raiton chakra into their limbs, the user assaults the target with a flurry of devastating blows. On each blow, the user can cause the Raiton chakra to radiate out in a fist or foot shaped eruption, depending on the limb they're assaulting the foe with. Each lightning-attack will inflict 2nd degree burns and induce partial paralysis in the foe, paralyzing them completely for one post if at least 3 attack manages to connect. The user can assault the foe with a maximum of 5 lightning-enhanced blows before they must enter a 2-post "cool down" phase from the technique. Barring the lightning-erruptions, the blows can still inflict 1st degree burns and greatly numb the assaulted area.

[b]Name:[/b] Shimo Kudari no Taki - Descending Waterfall

[b]Type:[/b] Taijutsu
[b]Range:[/b] Close (0m ~ 5m)
[b]Element:[/b] N/A
[b]Village:[/b] Kirigakure.
[b]Description:[/b] Descending from the air, the user propels a lot of momentum and force into their leg, performing a devastating sky drop kick. Crashing down suddenly and unexpectedly like a waterfall, the name is fitting for the jutsu. Not only is the technique difficult to avoid or block, but it produces damage to the terrain, causing earthquake-esque damage that appears like ripples in the ground.

[b]Name:[/b] Reddo Hōku - Red Hawk
[b]Rank:[/b] A
[b]Type:[/b] Taijutsu
[b]Range:[/b] Close (0-2M)
[b]Element:[/b] Katon
[b]Description:[/b] Concentrating pure Katon chakra into their hand, the user balls their hand into a tight fist before lashing out in a single powerful blow. On impact, the chakra will explode out, inflicting grievous third-degree burns on the target. Furthermore, the impact will channel the force of the explosion through the target, effectively microwaving their internal organs (fatal if the blow hits directly over the target's heart), the heatwave passing out the other side of the target in a wing-like flare of fire, hence the technique's name. It should be noted that the flare does not actually travel through the target; the [i]heat[/i] convects through them, and retains enough energy to light the air on the other side of the target on fire. The flare will reach out for about 2 meters, inflicting 2nd degree burns in and of itself.
