[h1]Raijin's Vault that lacks a clever/cool name[/h1] [hider=Kokatsu Tendou, Konoha's Rogue Yami no Oku] [center][img]http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/8/80479/4451999-6667221005-26782.jpg[/img] [color=ed1c24][i]“What is life without freedom but a slow death perpetuated by endless monotony.”[/i][/color] [b]Kokatsu is a tall individual, standing at around 6'1 with a lithe frame of compact muscle and scars from his many years as a shinobi. His Medium length black hair tied is usually tied into a short Ponytail that barely reaches past his shoulders. The rest of his hair is usually kept in a constant stated of manageable disarray. His eyes are an intense gold, and his contract with the shadow demons have given them a more feral appearance, with the eyes tending to form slits whenever he his bloodlust gets up. He bears marks on the side of his face, two small circles connected by thin lines to the corner of his eye, on the sides of his face are a tattoo traditionally given to the first born of any Tendou family, and a requirement for the first born son of any Clan Patriarch. Also, even though he's reached his forties, he still retains a strangely youthful appearance, though definitely looking less like a teenager and more mature at this point in his life. In his leisure time, Kokatsu wears a collarless black shirt and well-fitting pants, and whether or not he wears shoes depends on the weather, If it's hot, he'll wear sandals, if it's cold, he'll wear combat boots, and if the weather is in the glorious in between, he'll just go barefoot, enjoying the feeling of the ground beneath his feet. When he's expecting any kind of fight, his garment doesn't change that much. He'll always wear combat boots, these ones bearing steel toes to add a little something extra to his kicks. He'll also wear his basic combat gloves from his time as a jonin, possible his flak jacket if he's feeling particularly nostalgic, and his leaf head band(with the missing-nin slash though it) if he wishes to taunt his opponent.[/b][/center] [u][h3]Personnel files.[/h3][/u] [i]Access only by security personnel with a C3 clearance.[/i] [indent]【[U]Full Name[/U]】 [I]Tendou, Kokatsu[/I] 【[U]Alias[/U]】 [i]Datenshi, Konoha's Yami no Oku, Clanslayer, [/i] 【[U]Faction[/U]】 [i]The Red Sages[/i] 【[U]Age[/U]】 [i]42[/i] 【[U]Gender[/U]】 [i]Male[/i] 【[U]Birthplace[/U]】 [i]Konoha[/i] 【[U]Bloodline[/U]】 [i]Tendou Bloodline[/i] 【[U]Rank[/U]】 [i]Jounin, Missing nin[/i][/indent] [u][b]Psych. report.[/b][/u] [i]Medical secrecy applies.[/i] [indent]【[U]Personality[/U]】 [i]With age comes wisdom and regret, as the saying goes, and Kokatsu finds himself agreeing with that saying nowadays. Gone is the man hardly in control of himself and his desires, replace by one who, while still feeling such desires, chooses to focus them in other, less disturbing and destructive ways, such as training and on the members of the Confederacy who happen to find their into his interrogation chamber. While boredom has tempered his homicidal tendencies, it hasn't completely gotten rid of his unstable and predatory personality, making him a bit unpredictable at times. While he'll mostly just lay back and relax, exuding a go with a flow type of mentality, he'll suddenly shift into high energy, dragging some random person to due some random task whether they wish to or not. That being said, that doesn't mean he's incapable of being serious and stern, as he can when there is a need for it. He's also very protective of his sister Makoto and keeps an especially sharp eye on her.[/i][/indent] 【[U]History[/U]】 [hider=Old History] [i]Kokatsu was once thought to be one of the strongest ninja in Konohagakure and a powerful nominee for Hokage as well. He had the skill, the backing of a highly respected Family, a kind, knightly demeanor, and a silver tongue that was able to do battle with the best diplomats. It seemed that there was nothing that could stop him from claiming the spot one day, as he was even taken in as the Hokage's apprentice at one point. But behind this flawless facade was a man in desperate need of help, falling ever further into darkness by the day. Ever since he was young, he had been suffering from the conflict of his psychopathic tendencies and his kind nature, If he had been given proper medical help early on in life, things might have turned out differently, but sadly that isn't what happened. His father thought of him as a child in need not of help, but strict discipline. He would punish his son harshly when ever he found him doing anything that he felt would damage the Tendou family name. Soon enough, the behavior stopped, and his father thought that he had beaten the stubbornness of his son. In truth, he had only sealed the fate of his clan forever. Kokatsu developed a hatred for his clan and a majority of his immediate family members for never trying to help him. And throughout the majority of his life, he'd hold this hatred deep within himself, and as it festered, he began to slowly give into his inner darkness, at first just to spite his father, but over time he began to feel something liberating in his madness. It was this acceptance of himself that led to the awakening of his Clan's long dormant Kekkei Genkai, the Meiton. It occurred during a mission where a team of chunin ambushed his team and had taken out their Jonin captain, a person that Kokatsu had treasured dearly. The sight of their death was the straw that broke the camel's back, cause they were the only reason that he had kept any of their morality, and with them gone, all that was left was the pain and rage. The chunin team was shown no mercy, taken by surprises as a genin brat suddenly began to devour their jutsus, while cloaked in a terrifying veil of darkness. They were cut down before they could turn the battle around, their corpses barely recognizable as human remains after Kokatsu had finished with them. It was on that night that he earned his fearful monkier, bestowed upon him by his terrified teammates who could only watched as he stood in the center of a writhing mass of darkness, shadows, and death. The Leaf's Heart of Darkness. In the years to follow that fateful mission, he committed numerous murders in order to sate his bloodlust, and never once did the city police force ever come close to catching him. He was known as the Datenshi Killer due to how he always branded a pair of wings onto the backs of his victims. He also began to experiment with his powers and research his Clan's past to find out the source of this power. After 4 years of study, he not only found out the truth of his clan, but of another hidden power they had sealed away once they lost the ability to control it. At the age of 20, his father held a clan exclusive ceremony, a celebration for his son who was to take over as clan head. It was a night that would be known as the Tendou Massacre as Kokatsu took the clan's blade from his father and shoved it into his chest, making a single hand sign to activate the seals he had placed not only through out the compound, but through out the entirety of the Tendou-influenced section of the city. A wall of darkness separated the the affected area from the rest of the city, but anyone close by could here the screams of the dying as they resonated through the city. Anyone who tried to enter was forcefully rejected until about 30 minutes in, when the darkness dispersed and everyone could see the hell that was on the other side. Blood and gore was plastered on every building, both civilians and Shinobi were slain without mercy and in terrible ways. And Kokatsu was nowhere to be found. Many wondered why this had to happen, why such wholesale slaughter had to be committed. Many thought back to the tale of Itachi Uchiha and wondered if that may be the case here, others likened the event to be more in lines with someone like Orochimaru, a bid for power with a heavy human cost. But there was only one reason that this night happened, and that was because Kokatsu wanted it to happened, and he wasn't even sure what the ritual would have done when he put it in place. He just wanted to spite his father in the worst possible way, by dragging his precious legacy through the mud.[/i] [/hider] 【[U]Family ties[/U]】 [i]While Kokatsu had no love for his father and most of his old family, he has come to care for his sister Makoto very much, to the point where he can hardly deny her any request when he's not training her, and making him a bit of a pushover when she's concerned[/i] [b]Akira Tendou | Father | 52 at time of death, Konohagakure,Clan Patriarch (deceased)[/b] [b]Sakura Tendou | Mother | 48 at time of death, Konohagakure,Clan Matriarch (deceased)[/b] [b]Akio Tendou | Younger Sister | 29, Confederacy, jounin, Ever since the Confedeacy have taken over he's been unable to get information on how his sister is doing, and it does worry him to know end.[/b] [b]Makoto Tendou | Younger sister | 23, Red Sages, Chunin, he's insanely protective of her and promises pain to anyone who'd dare to even look in her direction[/b] 【[U]Dreams and fears[/U]】 [indent][i]Kokatsu doesn't really have a dream any more, as his old dream led to a life of boredom after awhile, so he's currently trying to find something to strive towards. His fears of losing any of the people he holds close to him still holds true, as it causes him a lot of stress whenever Makoto goes out on a mission.[/i][/indent] [u][b]Combat reports.[/b][/u] [i]Gathered from evaluation reports after missions.[/i] [indent]【[U]Fighting style[/U]】 [i]"Kokatsu is a highly skilled ninja, using not only his Kekkai Genkai, but also several other justus with flawless efficiency, truly deserving of his status as a prodigy in his academy days. He's decently skilled in Genjutsu(more focused in countering than using), Very skilled in Kenjutsu, Fuinjutsu, and Taijutsu, and excels when it comes to Ninjutsu techniques and creating variations of them, as can be seen with his use of the legendary Rasengan, which he was able to recreate himself after seeing it only a few times, though it took him a year to do so, an impressive feat none the less. In combat, Kokatsu now tends to fight with efficiency in mind, wanting to end each fight as soon as possible. This is done in part to keep his sadistic urges in control, as he thinks of the best way to take out his opponent. Mainly an offensive fighter, he lays down a savage assault of Kenjutsu and Ninjutsu against his foes, trying to wear them down before finishing them with a final strike.[/i][/indent] 【【[U]Kekkei genkai, or bloodline limit[/U]】 [b][u]Bloodline limit name:[/u][/b] [i]Darkness Release[/i] [b][u]Description:[/u][/b] [i]The Dark Release (or Meiton) is a specialised nature transformation kekkei genkai that can be used to absorb, manipulate, and release chakra taken from an opponent. The only other known user of this nature, Hirouko, used techniques of this nature through a mark on his left hand. This mark resembles two diamonds, one overlapping the other. Chakra is absorbed through the upper square, while it is released and manipulated through the lower. It is unknown what elements this nature entails. Unlike Hirouko, who stole his Kekkai Genkai through the use of the Chimera Technique, Kokatsu was born with this Kekkai Genkai(Which is probably why he has the double diamond mark on both of his hands instead of just one), and has found out that, along with the ability to take others chakra and use it against them, he can create solid constructs out of shadows and darkness that drain energy from the world around them.[/i] [b][u]Strengths: This Kekkei Genkai allows the user to absorb the energy of ones foes and their attacks, making it a highly defensive Kekkei genkai, especially with the addition of the darkness manipulation.[/u][/b] [b][u]Weaknesses:[/u][/b] [i]His ability to absorb chakra is less effective, sometimes even useless, against certain types of Jutsu's(ex. Earth style and Genjutsu). He can only absorb one jutsu per hand, which means that if he's stuck absorbing two jutsus, than he'll be unable to absorb a third and would be unable to retaliate due to both of his hands being occupied. Also, while absorbing, he can't move from his current position.[/i] 【[U]Ninja techniques[/U]】 [u]A rank techniques:[/u] [i][url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Rasengan]Rasengan[/url][/i] [list] [*]Wind Style Rasengan: A more powerful version of the Rasengan by buffing it with wind chakra. A stepping stone on the way to learning the Rasenshuriken, but still plenty powerful on it's own. [*]Fire Style Rasengan: The addition of Fire Style chakra gives the attack an intense orange glow, causing it to radiate a large amount of heat. When launched at an opponent, it will explode outward(away from the user) with a great amount of force and searing heat, likely causing third degree burns. [*]Twin Rasengan: A technique where the user holds a Rasengan in each hand, an excellent finisher for taking down a wounded enemy.

This is an odorless, colorless gas that can be ignited with any spark or flame. This gas will rapidly ignite, causing it to expand and create a strong wind in all directions. The outer gas is shot out, and ignites when it has expanded at a range of around 20 feet. Anyone within the range of this jutsu will be seriously injured and probably suffer at least a first degree burn. It also evaporates all water in the range of this jutsu[/i] [b][u]Jutsu name:[/u][/b] [i]Katon: Cinder technique[/i] [b][u]Rank:[/u][/b] [i]D[/i] [b][u]Range:[/u][/b] [i]All Ranges[/i] [b][u]Description:[/u][/b] A basic Katon technique that focuses entirely on setting things on fire, it allows the user to ignite a small spark anywhere they like. [b][u]Jutsu name:[/u][/b] [i]Fuuton: Propelling Winds[/i] [b][u]Rank:[/u][/b] [i]D[/i] [b][u]Range:[/u][/b] [i]Supplementry[/i] [b][u]Description:[/u][/b] By letting loose a short blast of air from their hands, the user is able to fly in the opposite direction with considerable force. Can be used to either move very quickly to the side, or even propel the user up to fifty feet directly upward. [b][u]Jutsu name:[/u][/b] [i]Meiton: Night Parade of a 100 Demons[/i] [b][u]Rank:[/u][/b] [i]A[/i] [b][u]Range:[/u][/b] [i]All Ranges[/i] [b][u]Description:[/u][/b] This jutsu is his most versatile jutsu, even more so than the Rasengan in the fact that it was made purely for the variations, which is what gives it it's A ranking. After performing the needed amount of hand seals, the user will clap their hands to gather, causing a large amount of Meiton chakra to form from their shoulders to wrap around their shoulders and hands. From this chakra will extend a large cloak of black mist that can extend to about 10 meters in length at max. This cloak is made entirely of Meiton chakra and can be manipulated directly with only the use of the horse sign and the mind. One can also manipulate the darkness into various constructs of monstrous design(like claws, blades, tendrils, and spears, etc) from the cloak that can move and extend to the user's will as long as they have their real hands free to form the horse seal. The constructs can strike and grab objects and people, though is no stronger than the user in terms of strength. It also has a chakra drain ability as well, but it's low-medium rate of drain(C rank amount). The constructs can be cut and damaged, but unless the requirements for complete destruction have been met, they will reform relatively fast. Edit: Has refined his control so that he only needs to hold half of the Horse hand seal. This jutsu can be used both offensively or defensively, and when used defensively it can take either one A rank attack, 2 B rank, or 4 C ranks before the extendable bit dissipates, leaving only whats on his shoulders and arms to be used. The Jutsu will last 6 posts, and the cloak can be reformed but it'll take 2 posts after it has received the damage to do so. Also, while this Jutsu is active, Kokatsu can't use Inhaling maw without dispersing the Jutsu itself, and will only get back about half what it cost to form it. [b][u]Jutsu name:[/u][/b] [i]Meiton:Haze of Nightmares[/i] [b][u]Rank:[/u][/b] [i]B[/i] [b][u]Range:[/u][/b] [i]within 15m[/i] The user makes a horse sign before taking a deep breath, then blowing out a large amount of thick inky black smoke made entirely of Meiton chakra, making seeing anyone within the cloud impossible and limiting the abilities of sensors due to the fact that there is chakra within the cloud to cause interference. Anyone caught in range of this attack will feel a slight fatigue soon after that will only grow the longer they stay in it. Also, due to the constant drain, it will take more chakra than usual to use ones techniques while inside the cloud. A genjutsu can be laced into this technique as well to make those trapped inside hear Kokatsu's maddened laughter and taunting voice coming from certain directions in the fog, leading them towards their comrades, who will appear to be Kokatsu while they are trapped in the dimness of the smoke. The Jutsu will dissipate after 3 posts, unless it's used inside a building, in which case it will take double that amount. Edit: The genjutsu that can be replaced from the previous to one that messes with ones sense of direction, making it so that they always stay within the confines of the jutsu 【[U]Weaponry, tools and objects.[/U]】 [hider=Eien no yami(The one on the top)] [img]http://i.imgur.com/MKstC3C.jpg[/img] [/hider] [b][u]Weapon name:[/u][/b] [i]Eien no Yami[/i] [b][u]Description:[/u][/b] [i]The Eien no Yami is made from specially forged chakra metal that is highly receptive to Meiton Chakra. Not only can one channel the darkness through the blade to increase both size and range, but it can also adopt it's energy absorption effect, making it highly resistant to the effects of chakra enhanced weaponry. The blade itself is extremely durable and bears a keen edge.[/i] [b][u]Weapon name:[/u][/b] [i]Demon Wind Shuriken[/i] [b][u]Description:[/u][/b] A large, four-bladed shuriken possessing pre-eminent sharpness and lethality. This type of shuriken is considered characteristic to the famous Fūma clan, after whom they were named and who possibly developed them. However, their use is not limited to this clan. Its four blades can be collapsed for easy storage, leading to its nickname Shadow Windmill. [b][u]Weapon name:[/u][/b] [i]Shuriken[/i] [b][u]Description:[/u][/b] Sharpened, four-pronged metal stars, useful for throwing. They can also be used for close combat, but not very efficiently. Although small, they can be used to distract, pin down enemy shinobi, or if accurate enough, can kill or incapacitate an enemy. They have an open circle in the centre, useful for grabbing with a finger, to avoid cutting oneself, or to put thread through. The circle is also beneficial to the weapon's overall aerodynamics, ensuring more accurate trajectories. [b][u]Weapon name:[/u][/b] [i]Kunai[/i] [b][u]Description:[/u][/b] A black dagger with a handle wrapped in bandages and a small ring attached to the end of it. The kunai is designed for thrusting and stabbing, though it can still do some damage if thrown despite not being designed for it, and is about the length of one's hand. [b][u]Weapon name:[/u][/b] [i]Explosive tags[/i] [b][u]Description:[/u][/b] Self-made, these tiny slips of paper with seals drawn on them can pack quite a punch if used correctly, and can even be attached in to an enemy directly. Also can be attached to thrown kunai for accurate delivery or have a bunch wrapped into a ball for a more devastating payload. [b][u]Weapon name:[/u][/b] [i]Concussion tags[/i] [b][u]Description:[/u][/b] Self-made, these tiny slips of paper with seals drawn on them that explode in a burst of air pressure, force, and sound to stun and disorient those hit by them. Except for that, they function similarly to explosive tags, just without the lethality. [b][u]Weapon name:[/u][/b] [i]Poison tags[/i] [b][u]Description:[/u][/b] These tags exploded into a cloud of poison, one that targets the senses to throw off an opponent's reaction time and general evasion and movement capabilities [b][u]Weapon name:[/u][/b] [i]Interrogation Seals: Elysium and Tartarus[/i] [b][u]Description:[/u][/b] Seals to be placed on a victim when they're under interrogation. They read various things about the subject, from their breathing rate, chakra fluctuations, mental activity, and so on and so forth to decide if someone is telling the truth, having an accuracy of about 85-90%. With this in mind, it works on a punishment and reward based system. Every time the subject lies, they're subjected to a great deal of pain, and every time they tell the truth, they are instead met with an addictive bolt of pleasure through their system. With every lie, the pain gets worse and worse, but the same is true for telling the truth. Tell the truth enough, and you can even lessen the amount f pain the ext time you lie, though the next lie told after that will hurt twice as much as the one before it. These tags are most effective when applied directly to the skin, and thus are of little use in the filed, where more direct measures may be needed. [b][u]Weapon name:[/u][/b] [i]Incineration tags[/i] [b][u]Description:[/u][/b] Same as exploding tags, except much hotter and spouting actual flames. Is able to easily set alight flammable materials, such as clothing, and cause severe 2nd-degree burns. [b][u]Tool name:[/u][/b] [i]Chakra Absorbtion, Suppression, and Disguising seals[/i] [b][u]Description:[/u][/b] Disguising This is a seal that Kokatsu made himself that serves to disguise how much chakra an individual has without having to suppress all of it. The way they work is basically like a chakra absorption and suppression seal, except their is a flow going through your body. With these placed on various points of the body, even a high level jonin will appear to only have slightly above average chakra expected for a civilian at least. Their is a slight suppression affect in place, limiting the user to only Jutsu of B rank or lower until the seals are deactivated. Absorption By studying his Kekkei Genkai, Kokatsu has been able to replicate the effects on a seal, but creating one requires much preparation and is very time consuming, so he only has five at the moment due to the cost and rareness of some of the materials required. They are reusable and also have been programmed to only absorb enough to keep the target weakened and unable to use most jutsu if they are a shin obi. He only uses them to keep his special prisoners in line, as they are more reliable and useful then suppression tags, as the chakra stolen is stored in the seal, so if the flow is reversed, it'll empty all of the chakra it holds into the person it's attached to. However, if done incorrectly, the flow will be too great and the person will face a painful death as chakra overflows their systems and they ultimately expire, usually with a violent explosion. Thus, only an experienced Fuinjutsu master should attempt to tamper with them. This goes double for attempting to remove them. Suppression This seal does as it says, surprises the targets chakra to that of civilian levels, and is somewhat difficult to remove, requiring a moderate understanding of fuinjutsu to remove. Again., due to the amount of preparation involved for applying it, it's strictly for use on prisoners. [b][u]Weapon name:[/u][/b] [i]Ninja wire[/i] [b][u]Description:[/u][/b] Strong, durable metal wire than can be used for a variety of uses and techniques 【[U]Contracted Summon[/U]】 Hokatsu has gained the ability to summon Shadow Demons through the sacrifice of his clan, and while only the stronger ones can be used to combat enemies directly, the others can be used for a variety of uses. Shadow Demons can hide within darkness and shadows to spy on people and maintain a direct link with their summoner, even from far distances. In battle, they can fuse with their summoner's body to increase strength, speed, reaction time, and durability, free him from a genjutsu, or cleanse his body of poisons. After that, the demons will fade away, the strength of the effect depending on how many demons he absorbed, and he can't use this ability any more than 4 times in a row, as every time after that will have a high chance of violent rejection of the demons from his body. They can also be used to restrain opponents and make surprises sneak attacks from the shadows The more combat focused demons work and fight just like other summons, sharing the ability to sink into shadows with that of their smaller counterparts. The Shadow Demons take on a form in response to the chakra provided, and for Kokatsu they take on the form of monstrous serpents made entirely out of shadows, but since they lack a proper form, they can at times shift their form to fit the situation, able to form things like hands, feet, and even extra heads to launch surprise attacks on one’s enemies.
