Kitanai and Madarame have always had a positive relationship due to the fact Kitanai was fostered by his clan following the disaster that struck Kitanai’s village that left him effectively orphaned. Madarame sees him as his more ambitious and worldly brother. His disappearance has never bothered Madarame particularly, though he does wonder if the absence has been good for him. [b]Hyuga Yukio:[/b][/hider] [hider=Comrades][b]Kohaku Miyuki:[/b] Madarame’s Jonin-Sensei, and during her lifetime one of the principal medical-nin of Konohagakure. She perished in one of the last battles of the war, trying to protect her former students from an unseen threat that proved too powerful for them to handle. Madarame had a positive relationship with Miyuki as a sensei and as a friend— a fact that Narumi often joked relentlessly that he had a moronic crush on their mentor so much that he wanted to emulate her skills just to get noticed. Her death made Madarame rethink what it is to be a medical-nin and to do what he could to protect his village. [b]Uchiha Narumi:[/b] Recently was assassinated while traveling the countryside in the Land of Fire with her son, Tensai. Narumi was a childhood friend of Madarame’s and preceding her murder was the only other surviving member of their genin team following the war. Madarame is still reflecting on her death and who could’ve done such a thing and why. [b]Kurama Tomokazu:[/b] Killed twelve years ago during the tail end of the last war. Tomokazu was ideally Madarame’s closest friend and the blow was dealt relatively hard for both Narumi and Madarame when they found themselves not only without their sensei but without their comrade. It was a loss that Madarame personally blamed himself for and vowed to never be so impulsive in the heat of a battle where there were two other lives in conjunction of his own.

Despite not having great chakra depths or affinities, Madrarame is a dangerous opponent to fight due to the fact he knows how to utilize his chakra intelligently and accuracy. [b]Wood Release:[/b] A hiden (or secret tradition techniques) for Senju who inherited water or earth chakra natures, they can ultimately utilize a unique elemental release known as Wood Release. Known as a unique elemental release that can suppress chakra among other marque features, Wood Release is an elemental release that Madarame has utilized effectively throughout the years on and off the battlefield. Madarame prefers to take a defensive approach with these techniques.[/indent] [color=6A675E][b]FOCUS & SKILLS[/b][/color] [indent][b]Kenjutsu:[/b] Madarame is the premier swordsman in Konohagakure, excelling beyond the preceding generation’s notable kenjutsu specialists. It is said that Madarame is the equal of any samurai, though such acclaim has never been tested on the field of battle. However, Madarame will state that his skill in swordsmanship is simply a product of the era he grew up in and had he not lived through the Shinobi Great War he would not have had the experience required to polish his skills. As a kenjutsu specialist, whilst he recognizes his own skill in the various forms he also happens to believe contemporaries such as Hozuki Chigetsu of Kirigakure could easily best him in a battle relying solely on swordsmanship. How much of this is humility and how much is fact is hard to say. [b]Medical Ninjutsu:[/b] Text! [b]General Ninjutsu:[/b] As a member of the Senju Clan, it is no surprise that Madarame has inherited many skills beyond his own individual talent with swordsmanship. In Ninjutsu, Madarame has utilized his clan’s marque affinity in that of Wood Release and various other ninjutsu techniques— in conjunction with his sword or without it Madarame can utilize a variety of techniques in a defensive or offensive fashion.[/indent] [color=6A675E][b]EQUIPMENT & INVENTORY[/b][/color] [indent]Madarame lives by a policy that a shinobi’s tools are his crux and his closest ally to prevent his comrades from harm. Whilst hardly an item expert he keeps his gear steadily equipped with shuriken, kunai, and other supplies such as the typically assigned wakizashi and his weapon of choice— a uchigatana.[/indent] [color=6A675E][b]JUTSU[/b][/color] [indent][hider=S Rank]N/A[/hider] [hider=A Rank]-[/hider] [hider=B Rank]-[/hider] [hider=C Rank]-[/hider] [hider=D Rank][url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/D-rank]Various Techniques[/url][/hider] [hider=E Rank][url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/E-rank]Academy Techniques[/url][/hider][/indent][/hider]
