[b][color=#FFFB7A]Length and build:[/color][/b] 5’3ft, lithe and thin. Rather than possessing a bulky build, Toko displays a thin, and lithe frame which could easily be considered scrawny.

[center][img]http://i.imgur.com/VBDZz0t.gif[/img][/center] [color=#FFFB7A][b]Appearance:[/b][/color] Toko possesses a thin frame, rather light skin and a mop of thick, black hair. A set of brown eyes rest above his nose and peer at you with a soft smile stretching across his lips. There isn’t much that would catch your eyes about this boy. He wears clothes that allows for freedom of movement and prefers to move about without much encumbrance. Toko’s body is what would be expected from a ninja his age. He’s rather small which would lower the threat he’d impose to quite a drastic level. It would be uncommon to gaze upon this boy and expect much of a punch but as most would have learned, the ninja world hides much beneath the surface. As for clothes, Toko leans against a more laid back attire. A set of, most often, black cargo pants find home upon his legs and hug his ankles with elastic bands sewn into the fabric. Further down, the all too familiar ninja sandals clad his feet, and on a warm day Toko remains in a t-shirt or tank top. Otherwise, a rather baggy sweater covers his torso to protect his skin from the wind. A strap can be seen crossing his chest, ending in a satchel where he keeps notes and tools. The same strap manages its way across his back, where it contains a holster for his crossbow. He dislikes accessories as they get in the way and dresses in a way that reflects his view of life, simple. Scars have yet to accompany his skin, and fitted bracers attached to his fingerless gloves protect his forearms, from harm. He’s not very creative when it comes to colours as most of his clothes are either black or grey, however a rather colourful personality can at times make up for it. [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/VBDZz0t.gif[/img][/center] [b][color=#FFFB7A]Personality:[/color][/b] What lurks behind that cute little smile of his? It’s a question many have asked, but is easily enough revealed once he displays the excited crazyness beneath. Toko doesn’t appear to be menacing in the slightest and sometimes he could appear a bit [i]too[/i] innocent. However, those who know him also know that this is far from the case. Trouble, curiosity and excitement follows him like a tail, and Toko wouldn't miss a chance to engage in danger if he could only see a beneficial outcome. Toko doesn’t feel like he has anything to prove to anyone but himself, though is easily provoked if the right buttons are pushed. These notable sore spots would be his engineering skills. He is a rather proud individual, and is very serious when it comes to his skills. This cannot be said about much else. Toko loves joking around, engaging in mischief and being an imp when his mood allows, and as such, he is known for being a little pest among the more respectable individuals of Kirigakure. Expressing his mind whenever he feels like it, Toko more often than not tends to step on someone's nerves, and it is safe to say that he isn't fully aware of the fact. He speaks long before thinking, and this has displayed a less than favorable outcome more often than not. He enjoys contact with others, and loves making new friends, though can at times find this a challenging battle. Toko is a rather special boy, and not necessarily in a bad way. The Ling clan is known for producing 'crazy engineers', and it said that this very trait runs in their blood. Toko loves trying out new inventions, whenever he can, and lives up to the extreme intellect his clan holds ever so high. [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/VBDZz0t.gif[/img][/center] [b][color=#FFFB7A]History:[/color][/b] Toko grew up with a close relationship to his mother and father, both of whom displayed a respectable upbringing for the boy. They raised him well, but throughout his childhood, Toko kept mostly to himself and it grew with the years. Of course, it would be a mistake to believe him shy. Toko's reclusive nature sprung not from a desire to get away, but rather, from his obsession with tinkering, and spending time in his parents' workshop. It was early that he learned of his mother's struggles with a terminal illness, but it didn’t show itself very often. In fact, she was a uniquely strong woman but with her energy being constantly sapped, it eventually became too much. What could be considered a perfect little family was down one member once the illness finally claimed its prey. Since childhood, Toko’s mother had been an astounding inventor, but the one foe she could not beat was the illness draining her spirit. Her passing was hard on both Toko and his father but together they managed to struggle through it. As a result of her passing, Toko retired to a more reclusive demeanor. Only the passing of a year was enough to eventually crack a small hole in the shell he had created, and Toko started to speak more and spend more time with his father. Their relationship grew stronger once the mourning had proceeded, and things started looking up. Ken continued with his missions, and Toko’s grades at school were picking back up. He stepped out of the workshop for the first time in what felt like an eternity, and greeted the world once more. Before and after his mother passed on, Toko’s life was rather straight forward. His Bloodline Limit ability showed itself as early as ten years into his life and has since then been close to his heart. It has been the centre of his combat prowess and what draws his clan’s capabilities. Toko got along with most people but had at times displayed difficulties initiating meaningful conversation with others. It has however been noted that his ability to maintain social interactions has improved quite a bit over the years. Since an early age Toko found great interest in the concept of bloodline limits and powers all together. Given the fact that he noticed how he was 'different' at such a young age, he quickly grew interested in what other people could do. He happily spent many hours listening to stories and tales of old, learning about various clans and their feats.

It is a staple for everyone within the Ling clan to design their own weapon, a rite of passage. Toko's crossbow is mechanical, allowing the string to be pulled back after every shot. It contains a clip, fitting six chakra bolts. [/hider] [b][color=#FFFB7A]Equipment:[/color][/b] Within Toko's satchel, he keeps tools for reparations of his crossbow if ever needed, as well as goggles and a notebook.

[i]Horrible [/i]- Melee Combat. [i]Horrible [/i]- Physical Prowess. [i]Horrible [/i]- Variation. [i]Horrible [/i]- Flexibility in combat. [b][color=#FFFB7A]Special Traits:[/color][/b] While wonderful engineers and users of mechanical weaponry, the Ling clan are unable to manage even the simplest of jutsus beyond their own Kekkei Genkai. [b][color=#FFFB7A]Kekkei Genkai:[/color][/b] [i][u][color=#FFFB7A]Chakra Crystallization[/color][/u][/i] The ability to manifest chakra into a solid state, it is an ability practiced by the Ling bloodline as their specialized combat maneuver. At a young age, the user of this Kekkei Genkai chooses to link his or her spirit with a single shape which will later be accessible for conjuration. The bolt is the absolutely most common shape the Ling bloodline has connected themselves to, which compliments their otherwise technological pursuits. The shape, in this case a bolt, can be manifested at will, but cannot be telepathically launched or in any way used as a weapon in itself. As the user of this ability grows in power, they are able to imbue their conjured item with various effects ranging from elemental fire to poisonous strikes. It has been noted that not a single member of the Ling bloodline has been able to manage even the simplest of ninjutsu or genjutsu. It is safe to assume that the feat is impossible for them. It is speculated that chakra flows through their bodies in a different way and cannot be conjured into jutsu the way many other ninja can. Toko is currently able to manifest a maximum of six chakra bolts.

The remaining constituencies of the Land of Fire banded together to become Kyokujitsu no Tochi (Land of the Rising Sun) with Kyokujitsugakure as its capital. It's quite different from Konoha due to the history of this world in particular, which disregards quite a lot of the established canon. The intro is a little sparse on details, but there's a fairly comprehensive post below it by Innue about what Kyokujitsu no Tochi is, I'd recommend giving that a read. :) Alternatively, feel free to join the Discord and ask any questions there! Other than that, once you've read up on Kyokujitsu no Tochi and decided if you want to remain there or join the Land of Earth's empire or Kirigakure you're accepted and can move the character over to the characters tab once the appropriate village is selected.
