[hider=Akio Tendou] [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/1JxIUAV.jpg[/img] [i]“”[/i] [b] Akio has very grown into her own over the years, bearing a much more mature and professional air. Her golden eyes now bear a guarded, almost emotionless gaze to them, and while she has cut her hair to a much shorter length than before, she still kept the fringes of her hair dyed black as reminder of her clan. She stands at about 5'10, with a slightly above average bust and a hourglass figure to match, making her quite the attractive woman. The only major detractors would be the multitude of scars that cover her body, earned through either combat or training, though the most notable would be three caw marks that make their way down the right side of her face, a parting gift from a giant tiger whose head she had turned into one of those chairs that hang from the ceiling. Akio's casual wear tends to be a sleeveless turtleneck sweaters with a pair of matching jeans. Her shoes differ from low heels to regular running sneakers, depending on the activities she plans to do that day. On a mission, she'll wear a modified version of the Konoha flak jacket that's black in color and has a hood on it, a black turtle neck with long sleeves, and the standard shinobi pants and sandals. She also wears a pair of gloves that leave the thumb and first two fingers uncovered, so that they don't interfere with her archery.

She has also proven to be rather tactical in combat as well, always keeping an eye out for an opportunity to take down her opponent quickly, and non-lethally if possible. As well as being a tactical fighter, she's a very well of weapon's user, bearing exceptional eyesight and near pin-point accuracy and precision honed through years of constant, grueling training. The same could also be said with her Chakra control, which she has worked extremely hard to get as precise as can be, as well as mastering every jutsu she has ever learned until she can do it with as few hand seals as possible. She bears a vast amount of willpower, and has also built up quite a tolerance to pain from her strict training. She, who lacks natural skill, has trained her mind and body to the limits of what is possible, and then pushed them even farther. She has somewhat above average strength and endurance for a chunnin, but what is most impressive is her speed, agility, and dexterity, allowing her to dance around the battlefield with a honed sense of grace.

It'll take a post for this jutsu to charge up, but when it does the flames will take on a egg-like shape as Akio thrusts her hand out to launch it at her foes. Upon impact with an object, the egg will explode with a huge amount of force and intense white hot heat. The radius of the explosion would be somewhere between 5-10m, though the intense heat can be felt from much farther away, burning skin, drying up moisture in the air, and causing fatigue through dehydration if an enemy is caught near the edge of the blast. The explosion itself takes the form of a phoenix rising high into the sky. The flames that the explosion created will stay for about 2 posts, however, the heat lessening by a great deal until it finally fizzes out. At this point, Aoi can use this jutsu with little strain, upping her usage to about 6 times before it starts to take it's toll. Seiteki Suji no Jutsu (Static Strings Technique) Rank:E Description: This skill allows the user to create strings of electricity that can either act physically as strings, or as a medium that can send small shocks to an opponent. One of this technique's most useful features is its ability to allow the user to detect outsiders. When the strings are placed around an area, they are often fairly difficult to see, and unnoticed by the quick eye. But when the string is used to detect outsiders, they can adapt a quality that is string-like and electrical at the same time. This quality makes the static strings into a string of electricity, but with such a weak current that it is rarely noticed by Shinobi who accidentally walk through the strings. However, when this happens, the user at once will feel a small shock in their fingers, or where ever else they are keeping the strings intact. But unless the opponent felt the weak current as they walked through the strings, the opponent will usually never know the strings were there. But beyond its ability to detect outsiders, this skill can be used as a normal string when it is needed but none is around, or it can be used to create small shocks to other people. However, the shocks are only a little bit stronger than static electricity, and usually do no damage at all. Jutsu Name: Raiton: Thunder Bow Rank B Range Mid to Long Can be fired at a target up to a 100m away Description: Akio forms a bow out of lightning chakra, from which she can draw back and fire bolts of electricity from, the amount of power dealt depending on how long she holds it for. A quick draw only does a low-medium amount of damage and has no lingering effects. A Charged shot, which takes about 1 post to form up, does a fair deal more damage and will leave the target temporarily stunned if direct contact is made. The charged shot can also be split into four homing shots, which'll lock onto the opponents chakra signature. These only do slightly more damage than a quick shot on their own, but if all three hit the same target, then the damage can be even greater than a charged shot and can explode out to damage foes within a meter of the target. Akio can now fire a detonation shot with a charged up bolt, which is less powerful overall, but can paralyze a whole group of individual for a few moments. She can also create a piercing shot, which has more focused electrical energy for more power and damage, but has reduced ranged as well, only being able to go about half as far as a normal charged shot. The piercing shot can pierce through most standards armors and defensive jutsu of equal rank or lower, not including elemental weakness into play, in which it can probably partially get through lower A-rank Earth Style Jutsu and be halted by upper C rank Wind Style jutsu. Static strings can be attached to the quick fire shots, so that if they hit, the user can hold the foe in place by running a constant stream of electricity through it, locking her muscles in place. If this is done, neither Akio nor the target can move so it's not a good move for one on one, but good for lining up holding an enemy in place for another teammate to take down. Edit: Through training, Akio has managed to work down the weakness of her static strings down so that only one of her limbs is paralyzed and not her whole body, meaning that she won't be able to form jutsu while holding a foe down, but she can still move, dodge attacks, and counterattack reasonable well, though she still has to be able to keep some focus on the connection while moving, or else it'll break, thus she won't be able to move as fast as she normally could. Katon: Myaku Hitofuki no Jutsu (Fire Release: Pulse Blast Technique) Rank: B Range: Close to Mid Description: An extremely useful jutsu, this one has the effect of flushing out or separating multiple opponents. Hurling a fireball about the size of a basketball, it is meant to be dodged in order to be effective. For at center of this fireball is a gaseous core which, when the spherical attack finally makes contact with something, will explode and this gas will expand rapidly in a loud bang. The bang is simply a precursor though, as instantly afterwards a sharp concussive force will issue out all around the center of the blast. Though the explosion of the attack itself is not very strong, the force it sends out is enough to knock anyone who is within a certain radius of it flying. Katon: Kudakasei no Jutsu (Fire Release: Shatter Force Technique) Rank: A Range: Close Range technique, with the base diameter of the blast radius being around 5 meters Description: Built upon the principles of Katon: Myaku Hitofuki no Jutsu, this technique instead acts as a much more powerful, centralized version. Gathering heat in between both hands the user focuses it until it cannot be condensed further. Manifested as a sphere of raw, glowing energy it is at first held at bay as if only for show. Then, given any cue, the user slams the sphere into the ground, causing it to explode with the power of pure heat behind it. The user is unaffected by this burst of power, but anyone within the radius of the blast suffers some unsettling consequences alongside the devastating concussive force it sends forth. This technique, by sheer strength alone, has even been known to crack boulders. Separate effects of the jutsu are that the intense heat dehydrates any opponents caught within the radius of the blast, drawing them closer to fatigue, blurring their vision and causing mild headaches all the while. Minor, first-degree burns may also result from this technique. Jutsu Name: Raiton: Raikou Hitofuki no Jutsu (Lightning Release: Lightning Blast Technique) Rank: C Range: Close to Mid Description: This jutsu allows the user to fire off a continuous blast of electrical energy at an opponent, causing only minor burns but a great deal of pain as it courses through the foes system. It can be held for as long as the Akio desires, or shut off whenever she feels the need. Jutsu Name: Raiton: Cloak of the Thundering Phoenix Rank: S Range: Self Description: A Variant of the Lightning Armor Jutsu, this jutsu cloaks the Akio in an intense aura of electricity that takes the form of phoenix around them. While under the influence of this jutsu, Akio's speed, reaction time, and physical attack power gains a substantial increase, though not to the level that is seen by users of the original technique, as well as boosting the power of her Raiton jutsu, thus negating the charge up of her more power Thunder bow attacks. She can also up her mobility on the battlefield by gliding and hovering in the air for short periods of times using the wings this jutsu gives her, though she has yet to achieve true flight using this technique. Finally, the wings can also be formed into a defensive wall at a moments notice, incase she's targeted by an attack she can't dodge, but they can only block a single attack of up to A-rank in power, and Wind Style jutsu of Mid A-rank and higher will always be able to partially get through these defenses. Once the attack has been blocked, the wings will disperse and Akio will spend the remainder of the jutsu's duration moving at a reduced speed compared to before, though still noticeably faster than her base speed, as well as no longer being able to hover or glide due to the loss of her wings. This jutsu duration is for about 6 posts, though it can be lengthened to up to 9 by feeding more chakra into it, though this worsens the drawback once the jutsu ends. After the base duration runs out, her entire body will become numb and cause her speed and reaction time to drop as a result. This lasts for about three posts, but if she lengthened it, it can lengthen to about 6 posts and only allows her to move at a third of her base speed. If she tries to go over that limit, though possible, it will result in her body becoming completely paralyzed, as well as the obvious threat of chakra exhaustion. 【[U]Weaponry, tools and objects.[/U]】 [b][u]Weapon:[/u][/b] [i]Shuriken[/i] [b][u]Description:[/u][/b] A basic tool every ninja should have, it can be lethal if it hits a vital spot, but they are also good in creating some space for the fighter.

[i]Medical secrecy applies.[/i] [indent]【[U]Personality[/U]】 [i]After the war and her break-up with Aoi, Akio has become a very emotionally withdrawn individual, focusing only on either training or her duties as a shinobi, and spending very little time socializing with others anymore. While she still has the sarcastic remark or joke ready whenever it's needed, she no longer talks with people in depth. If they try to get to know her personally, she'll either redirect the conversation away from herself or just shut down, not speaking another word until the person gets the message and leaves her alone. Along with this, Akio has developed a bit of a drinking habit, not a terrible one, but noticeable. She always tends to have one bottle of some form of liquor on her when not on a mission, and she can be a bit cranky at times on missions due to the fact that she can't drink while on the job, a self-imposed rule so that her habit never interferes with her work. On really bad days, however, one could find Akio totally hammered in her home, in which she becomes a depressive, self-loathing mess that is constantly asking people to comfort her and listen to her problems, as well as provide . . . other forms of relief. [/i] 【[U]History[/U]】 [hider=Old History] [i]Before the massacre, her life wasn't really that great as her father saw her as nothing as a mistake and an embarrassment for two reasons. The first is that she was a bastard child, a mark of shame on his honor as the Tendou family patriarch, though it was that same honor that duty bound him to take the child in, as her mother had died during childbirth. The second reason was that she was never good enough, and while she wasn't the most skilled of individuals, she was still rather good, some would say better than most. But it was never enough for Akira Tendou, he demanded perfection, and severely punished those who did not meet his requirements. And as she hardly ever did, she was often met with scorn from her father, who never once acknowledged her as his daughter. And while that should've devastated her, she didn't find herself minding too much. She never once considered Akira Tendou as her father in the sense that he was a man to come to with her woes, worries, and needs, as that regard went to her older brother, Kokatsu. Ever since she came into their home, Kokatsu was extremely protective of her, getting into several fights with Akira and most of them ending in some sort of violence. Since she was young, she never got to see Kokatsu darker side, and she believes that he wanted to keep it that way as he made extreme efforts to avoid telling her about his job in any specific detail. He also expressed some sorrow when it became apparent that she was going to be joining the Shinobi forces, though never actively spoke out against it, unlike her father who was certain that she'd never pass and if she did, never make it pass a lowly genin. If things had continued as normal, then he may have been right, for even she had begun to doubt her self and her reasons for becoming a ninja, of whether she was ready for the life they lived. But instead, soon after her seventh birthday, all hell broke loose. A ceremony was held, as Akira had decided to pass on his position as Clan Patriarch to his son, claiming he had never been prouder for him. Kokatsu took the Tendou blade(an artifact past down from Patriarch to Patriarch since before the elemental nations were even concieved) and, with a smile as bright as the sun, slew his father where he stood, dropping the weapon to perform a quick string of handsigns before slamming his fingers into the fresh corpse. An eerie red light rose from the ground around him, and it was until many months after the event that she would hear that at the time, seals popped up all throughout the city. And so it was that Kokatsu opened a portal between this world and a world of darkness to unleash death upon all who lived within it. Only a single order was given, spare the children of the Tendou clan, they had done no wrong. And so it was that behind a veil of darkness, hundreds if not thousands died horrid, painful deaths, all the while a menacing laugh would echo through out it all. When the barrier fell and the demons fled, Kokatsu held out his hand for Akio to grab, only for her to flinch away, looking at her blood trenched sibling in horror. Akio couldn't remember a time where her brother had looked more hurt then at that time, and yet she also couldn't remember a time where he seemed more relieved. He offered no pressure or force, just left without a word, and leaving her alone in a nightmare of blood, death, and sorrow. After the event, the Tendou children were taken in and eventually handed over to adoptive parents to raise them. Of those children, four would go insane from the trauma of what they witnessed as they grew up, one even committing suicide after slaughtering his adoptive parents. Tendou children where treated with a mix of pity, fear, and for Akio, hatred. Given how closely related she was to Kokatsu, there were people, kids especially, who would take out their grief of lost loved ones out on her. This made it hard for her to trust and approach people, and also made it so she hated her features that so easily gave her away. But in the midst of these hardships, an ember began to burn bright with newly discovered passion. She developed a burning drive to train herself, to become as strong as possible. She was able to pass the academy with only minor difficulties, and did her best in her genin missions no matter what the they were. However, in the early years of her life, this passion nearly consumed her, as she withdrew from everyone, constantly running herself into the ground, and then some, for a reason that she wasn't even sure of. In actuality, she felt partially to blame for what happened to Kokatsu, thinking in her subconscious mind that if she had somehow been there for him more, it could've been avoided. As life went on, however, she found herself to be taken unde the wing of Tsukiko Umene. The older jonin would drop by from time to time to check up on her, and if she felt it necessary, beat her in to shape. While at first Akio resented the woman, she eventually began to grow more attached to her as time went on, to the point where she thinks of the wild woman as the big sister she never had. Due to Tsukiko's influence, Akio began to open up to other people a little more and try to overcome her weaknesses. Also because of Tsukiko, the young Tendou can tend to have a rather vivid and imaginative vocabulary when sufficiently angered or upset, as well as having a bit of a nasty temper. As of now, she's living in a rented apartment in downtown, having moved away from her foster parents the moment she became a genin, never to speak to them again.[/i] [/hider] The war was a defining moment in Akio's life . . . and not for the better. while she wasn't a stranger to loss or violence, she had never felt in the scale that she had in the war. Many good friends died in the fighting, only to die in vain as the Confederation came to rule everything. However, instead of being filled with anger and indignation, she just felt broken and afraid. As she recovered, she began to withdraw from the world, drinking more often, and geting into fights with her girlfriend Aoi, until it finally culminated in Akio breaking it off in a fit of drunken passion. She immediately regretted it afterwards, but instead of going after her and begging forgiveness, she simply let the relationship die. Despite still having strong feelings for Aoi, she just didn't want to feel the pain of losing her, imagining that it'd be worse than anything else she'd ever experienced. Since she couldn't force Aoi to stop being a kunoichi, she decide that it'd be best for the two o end their relationship, thinking it'd be easier for both of them in the long run. This belief has long since died in her mind, as she only continues to feel more and more empty inside, but she feels like it's much much too late to fix her mistake. So she lives her days in misery, with her only companions being the alcohol she keeps by her side and the odd stranger that it invites to her bed every so foten. 【[U]Family ties[/U]】 [i]Akio feels nothing for her family name, and had nothing but fear for her father. Her brother and a few of the braver clan members were the only ones in her family to show her any kindness, though not without punishment. Her foster family after the Massacre were kind at first, but soon grew distant as she showed a great lack in interest in them. After that, they simply ignored her and she ignored them. Not the perfect home, but it was peaceful at least.[/i] [b]Tsukiko Umene | Big Sister figure | 42, Konohagakure, Downtown, Jonin [/b] [b]Kokatsu Tendou | Half-Brother, Father figure | 42, Unknown, Jonin and Missing-nin [/b] [b]Makoto Tendou | Half-Sister| 23, Unknown, Kidnapped by her brother on the Night of the Massacre [/b] 【[U]Dreams and fears[/U]】 [i]Her main dream and fear are one in the same, as both haunt her every time she closes her eyes, screams echoing through the darkness and blood spattering against her eyelids. She wishes to find her brother, to face him down and then . . . she doesn't known what she'll do, and that terrifies her more than anything else in the world. She also has a very intense fear of snakes, for an extremely good reason. Her biggest hope, and the one she believes in the least, is that some way, somehow, her brother will be able to redeem himself and comeback home, so that they can be a family again. On a less serious note, she does have a desire to find the right person and have the nice family she herself never had the luxury of having. Along with her fear of snakes, she also tends to dislike rodents and insects, though to a lesser extent than snakes.[/i][/indent] [hider=Base relationship sheet - replace this with character name][center][b]Personnel files[/b] [i]Warning: keep locked in filing cabinet[/i][/center] [center]These files are intended for [i]trusted eyes only.[/i] If you are [b]not[/b] authorized by the Hokage or his assistant, [b]put these files away.[/b][/center] [hr] [center][b]Personal files for: Akio Tendou[/b][/center] [hr] [indent][b]Full name:[/b] [b]Nicknames:[/b] [b]Interests:[/b] Training, playing the flute, Photography, Archery [b]Likes:[/b] Drinking, being alone, people who can respect her desire to keep to herself, Archery [b]Dislikes:[/b]Drinking, Herself, Yamato, braggerts, perverts, tight clothing [b]Catchphrase:[/b] “”[/indent] [hr] [center][b]Personal relationships with others[/b][/center] [hr] [hider=person 1][b]Full name:[/b] Aoi Don Maquia [b]Nicknames:[/b] [b]Opinion:[/b] ?
