Character Name: Ryujin, Hitomi
Age: 16
Guild: Nakaru Shoji (Tarumizu)
Clan: Ryu Clan
Clan Traits:
The Ryu are a fierce clan that believes that combat is the root of truth. They used to be a very high standing noble clan though recent inner struggle and assasinations have weaken their unity. Their basic fight style mimicks those of large felines and dragons and many members take on a style of dress and weapons that mimick this. They prefer straight on confrentation and dislike many forms of subterfuge even though they are highly trained in assasination techniques. The Ryu can be very violent if provoked because they have a harsh temper. For the Ryu strength is a way of life and weakness should be conquored. Injuries and sometimes death is the result of the training style the Ryu follow. One could say that they follow the mantra of "What does not kill you only makes you stronger".
Clan Techniques:
- Animal Forms of Martial Arts (Specifically Tiger/Cat Style and Dragon Style)
- Blood Eyes: From a very young age members of the Ryu clan study the human body in order to gain an understanding of how it works and where its weakeness are. As such they have developed a techinque that focuses on the nerve centers, pressure points, and joints of the body. Young Ryu ninjas are put through strict training on locating their opponents weakpoints and using those to disable them. This includes many strikes directed at pressure points that immediately cause pain and paralisys that can sometimes be permanite, they are also taught how to cause massive bleeding with simple seemingly irrelevant stricks to joints of blood vessals. Mastery of this skill allows the user to unconciously target weak areas of the body making their opponents believe that they have eyes that can see through the skin and to the blood and nerves below. When combined with any weapons technique esspecially accupuncture like needles it can be devistating, though it takes many years of singular training and concentration to be considered a master of this skill though all young Ryu ninjas have a basic understanding.
Healing Techniques:
- Basic First Aid
- Herbology
Stealth Techniques:
- Kakuremino, ???, literally "Cloak of Invisibility" (Wilderness and Urban): The skills needed to
blend into ones surroundings so as to become 'invisible' to those looking. Requires a certain amount of
skill and alertness. It can not fool those who know what they are looking for and are very attentive.
Can be used in both Wilderness and Urban areas though each is a different skill set.
- Lock Picking: The skill to pick locks. Time and ability depends on the type of lock one is trying to
pick.
- Nawanuke, "Escaping Skill": Encompasses several techniques to escape from restraints and includes
basic lock picking as well as aerobics in order to escape. This technique is less effective the more
complicated the restraints are and it takes time and effort to accomplish. It is considered a stealth
skill because it allows one to escape often seemingly impossible ways.
- Henge, ??, literally "Transformation": A set of observational skills developed to allow one to
change many characteristics of their posture and attitude in order to blend into a crowd. This includes
the ability to change quickly and make one appear to be a different person. Though this does not change
the persons physicality it can often fool searching guards and receptionist. Requires a degree of acting
and often props.
- Stealth: The ability to move almost silently. This skill takes years of practice and harsh discipline to aquire. This includes not only walking but breathing, running, jumping, falling, climbing, communication, and the ability to hide yourself on the ceiling of a hallway quietly. Gennins are ussually too clumsy to use this technique though they are highly encouraged to practice it.
Assasination Techniques:
- Shunshin, ??, literally "Body Flicker": Combined with high speeds this uses light and obsticals to
confuse ones opponent's eyes so that they can not follow all your movements with their eyes. Recieved
it's name from the fact that it makes one appear to flicker from place to place.Is often combined with a
pouch of shiny material like glass thrown in the air.
- Jibaku Fuda, ???, literally "Exploding Tag": A small bomb created by mixing chemicals on a paper
tag or in a small bag attached to the tag that is then thrown or attached to an object. The time delay
depends on the chemicals and how long a ninja holds it before throwing. The chemical containers are
ussually broken before release or upon impact to create the explosion
- Seduction (not very good at it/Dislikes its use): This encompasses a wide veriaty of techniques to seduce someone. Used to gather information, gain access to a restricted section, or lure prey into a trap it is a very personal skill that is often passed from mother to daughter or master to apprentice. Not many can actually master this skill as it requires natural talent and charm. Taught primarily to kounichi it can also be taught to males though the skills are very different.
Martial Art Techniques:
- Jujitsu
- Karate
- Tiger Style
- Dragon Style
- Kick Boxing
- Muay Thai
- Raiken, literally "Thunder Fist": A boxing like technique known for its fast solid movements which are said to rock an opponent like thunder.
- Variant: Rai Raiken, literally "Lightening Thunder Fist" Using a small device to pass a steady electrictic charge through a metal guantlet or other types of armour on ones hand while using Raiken. This causes the opponent to be shocked when hit and depending on the level of charge it can damage the nueral network. This is limited to contact with metal and the amount of charge delivered. Ussually a small chock effecting only a localized area. Time limited as the 'battery' wears out. User can be effected if not properly sheilded from the device.
- Variant: Raikou Ken, literally "Lightening Discharge Punch": Very Similar to the Rai Raiken only it is a much larger charge. This can ussually only be used once or twice before the battery runs out. It is not a steady charge but more a sudden release of electrical energy just before contact. This delivers a much larger shock directed at the nueral network of an opponent and can disable them for a length of time.
- Raigeki no Yoroi, ????, literally "Lightning Armor": Passing electricity through body armour in order to protect onesself from an enemy. This is a time limited technique where its range depends on the device used. The wearer must be protected from the electricity and trained specifically in this tenchique or they can be effected by it as well.
Weapons:
Hands and Feet
Hand made claws
Giant Shuriken given to her by Keade
Bio: Hitomi was the second born to Shiro and Kunashugi Ryujin. She does not know of the noble rank that the family holds as her parents passed in the last war. Her older sister knew of the lineage that they were ment for, but has laid low due to obvious issues with treaties and the like.
Hitomi decided to follow her sister in the way of the ninja, since there is nothing else to learn. Hitomi knows how to cook, but it's been through trial and error that she's managed this. Keade (her sister) has been the test subject for the strange stews that Hitomi has come up with, and so far only 2 have made them both sick. Oddly those 2 stews helped them heal faster.
Chuunin Arc
After the forfet of her match in the exams, Hitomi wen on to study more. As a surprise to her she was rewarded a promotion to the next rank for displaying great skill, and tactful anylizing skills from the matches she did perform in. Hitomi's thurst for blood is one step closer to being released with a little training from her dear sister Keade.
With some study aids from students that she helps, hitomi uncovered the Genjutsu skill. She hopes that in time she will be able to pass it on to others.
