She has piercing yellow eyes fairly reminiscent of a cat’s eye and greenish teal hair. She commonly has the back of her hair up in a ponytail allowing the rest to fall beside her face. She also keeps bangs, just long enough to not crawl into her field of vision. She has a fairly slim but toned build and fairly sharp facial features. Specifically her cheekbones and jawline are noticeable fairly easily. Off-duty she sports a white halter neck top without sleeves and a pair of typical blue pants. This outfit leaves some midriff showing. She also sports black sleeves and fingerless gloves. The sleeves reach from just above her wrist to just below her armpits. Āito notably looks young for her age. Her quiet demeanor and sharp features paint the picture of a judgemental youth, but she is anything but. She has multiple tattoos which are her drawings in the form of her Bijutsukan technique. Two snakes on her right arm, a large catfish on her left calf, a majestic phoenix on her back, and dragon that wraps around her left arm and shoulder/neck area. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【[U]Personality[/U]】 Āito is a fairly quiet woman, choosing to listen rather than speak most often. While she does speak up, especially when surrounded by friends, she speaks albeit quietly. However she keeps it fairly exact. She says what she needs to without leaving much room for emotion or contemplation. Āito has been known by her very few friends to be really quite sweet where it counts. She often goes out to the store to get their favourite treats when she knows she’ll be seeing them and lives on basically the bare essentials. She often spends nights gazing at the stars and painting them, with regular ink of course. Her art is perhaps one of the most defining aspects of her personality. She is constantly drawing and has even prepared some drawings should she get ambushed and not have time to draw something. However what she often explains away as simply a defensive countermeasure she is in fact simply expressing her love for art. Her art style can best be described as Ukiyo-e, an expressive and highly impressionistic view of reality. Somewhat contrary to what her personality leads others to believe. However, the specifics of that style often depend on the mood and situation. As a Kunoichi who utilizes Chōjū Giga on a regular basis she has taught herself through excruciating training to be able to sketch in said style in incredible times. Able to paint an entire tiger or hawk in little under five seconds. While it is obviously not her most detailed work, it need not be beautiful to be effective. Her style isn’t however, drastically different in combat as she is commonly able to use her impressionistic style to her advantage, drawing faster and accomplishing the same task as one who is constantly aiming for a perfect replica. Her take on her status as one of the leaders of the Iwa Critical Defense Organization is that while she is and can be sent on missions that aren’t exactly ‘defense’ at least not by definition, she is helping the people of Iwagakure. They were the people who took her in when she couldn’t find anywhere else to go and as such it is those buildings she sketches every night. Thusly, she will always support the village. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【[U]History[/U]】 Āito was born in Takigakure to a loving family. A medical ninja named Hiyoko and a young man who would die before Āito was born. When Āito was only two she was entrusted to her aunt, a young woman that Āito cannot remember all too well. With Takigakure under siege from bandits, Āito’s mother was well aware that she could not keep her daughter safe for long enough to justify her living there. Thusly, she sent Āito with her aunt. Unfortunately, Āito’s aunt had other plans and instead sold Āito as a daughter of a medical ninja and a child with extreme promise to the leader of the sieging bandits in exchange for safe passage to Iwagakure. The bandits accepted the deal however they immediately double-crossed Āito’s aunt and took Āito for themselves. By the time Āito was four years old she was being taught art by the leader of this group of bandits. While he was a violent man who took what he wanted from those weaker than him, he was also a fairly art-minded man who had a great respect for beauty. Āito couldn’t remember him too well either but she simply attributed it to the fact that no single person was one thing or another. They simply were. Thusly she was taught art, however she was barely taught any language whatsoever, she wasn’t allowed to speak unless addressed which was uncommon in itself. While she obviously picked up what she could she had a very difficult time spelling anything and turning her thoughts into words were also incredibly difficult. It wasn’t until five years later when she was seven years old that the bandits were slain. They were killed by the Iwagakure Critical Defense Organization, a group that Āito would later join. She was given a small home and a woman from the Tsuchikage’s office named Shiho would come each and every day to make sure that Āito had everything she needed and would walk her to the academy. Essentially providing the girl with a live-in mother. But as soon as she was old enough to fend for herself, she did. She bought her own groceries from the time that she was ten years old and became fairly well known around town for her talented illustrations, quiet nature, and status as a ten year old girl living on her own. While Shiho would still stop by unannounced every once in a while to make sure the girl was doing well, she found the girl was highly independent. The small apartment she had was always spotless and her fridge reasonably stocked with about three days’ worth of food. After being taught the basics of language and beginning to learn Ninjutsu she found herself progressing very well in the academy, quickly graduating within just two years and becoming a Genin at age twelve. She was placed in a three-man squad in which she was constantly given the feedback of communicating more, which was difficult for the young girl. When she went home there was no one and she was never allowed to speak with her captors unless spoken to. It was an issue to her Jonin team-leader, and thusly she worked with Āito to attempt to work past it. Āito grew to admire her team leader for that and aspired to become one herself eventually. During her time as a Genin she was reached out to by the Kouken clan. They had a young Genin themselves and heard of the girl’s independence, her time with bandits and her ability to learn how to read and write while also making her way through the academy and wanted her to become their aspirant’s sparring partner. Āito was urged to accept the offer from her team leader, who believed it would be a good amount of experience. The girls introduced themselves, Āito and Ayame. They would go on to train day in and day out for the coming months knowing quite a bit about each other without truly knowing each other. Though had someone asked Āito would refer to Ayame as a friend, there was a tension there. Each subsequent fight would be even harder fought as the girls sought to prove entirely different albeit similar ideals. Ayame at her heart was a pacifist and Āito was a weapon for her village to use. They butted heads as much as their kunai clashed. Well after the two became Chunin their sparring matches had continued. They were both twenty years old, Ayame had started on the Barrier corps and Āito the Defense Organization. They were both moving up in their fields as a shield to protect the people a blade to cut down those who threatened it. Āito and Ayame had even had a few conversations, Āito had told Ayame about her childhood and the bandits who had stolen her away from her home, Ayame about the events that transpired with her sister. It was horrible, Āito remembered thinking, but she admired how Ayame didn’t let it stop her. One training session that lasted particularly long, the Kouken clan elder who was overseeing Ayame’s training that day was pushing the girl yelling at her, goading her on, but Āito could read her movements. Every kick was stuffed, each punch punished. It was fairly easy when Ayame became frustrated, her telegraphing increased as most people who were agitated did. Yet when Āito blocked one punch with a disabling punch to the arm and a leg sweep and Ayame began to fall to the ground, but, as the girl fell a series of hand-shaped barriers reached out to Āito and snagged her. As Ayame hit the ground Aito was flung at high speeds into the wall aobut twenty feet behind her. Smashing into it with enough force to slightly crack the wall. She felt the wind forcibly exit her lungs as she slumped onto her knees, coughing to catch her breath. Ayame lurched back up just as fast as she fell and stared at Āito, fuming over the training. She was tired, being pushed, unhappy, it caused her to hit a boiling point. While Ayame was typically a kind woman, she also had the heart of a survivor and when pushed enough she had the ability to snap. She stood up to yell at Āito until she saw her handiwork. She covered her mouth instinctively, the words I'm sorry sounded as though they escaped but it was difficult to tell over Āito's coughing. Āito went home that night and thought about what had happened. She assumed up to this point that Ayame was just nice, that in her eyes she was just an annoyance. This may’ve confirmed it. The nice thing to do would be to accept this not quite plain termination of their friendship and agree to go separate ways. However, Āito enjoyed her friend’s presence and would have a hard time abandoning her. As such she got to work. She grabbed a blanket from her bed, a nice fluffy comforter and went over to a local dango shop, picking up a fair amount of the treats. The sun had long since set on the day and a silhouetted figure sat atop the Kouken Clan HQ, Āito joined the girl. “I’m sorry, Ayame.” She said quietly her voice riding the cool breeze to the girl’s ears. Ayame looked up at her with reddened eyes, it seemed she had been crying a little bit and she was doing a rough job with holding it back now. "What do you mean you're sorry?" She asked exasperated. "I pushed harder than I should've, you should find solace in my presence, not turmoil." Āito responded quietly, giving her friend both of the dangos and laying the blanket over her while she took out her scroll, ink well and brush. She sat cross legged beside the girl and began to paint the night sky. Ayame seemed to be a loss for words, but as the redness moved down to her cheeks she rested her head on Āito's shoulder as the night continued on. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【[U]Traits[/U]】 -Excellent Chakra Control -Average Chakra Pool -Fair Talent in Bukijutsu and Taijutsu -Lacking in Genjutsu -Talented with Fuinjutsu -Excellent with Art-based Ninjutsu and sparing talent in Earth-Based Ninjutsu -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【[U]Equipment/Weapons/Items[/U]】 [i] [u]Name of Weapon or Item:[/u] Chōjū Giga Scroll [u]Description:[/u] Āito’s scroll for use with the Chōjū Giga Jutsu. It isn’t much different from a regular scroll outside of the fact that it comes completely blank, ready for implementation with the Jutsu. All that is required to activate the technique is the seal of confrontation to be made and the scroll with the drawing be facing open air. [u]Appearance:[/u] A simple scroll. [hr] Basic tools: Two scrolls, both with ink in them. A brush with ink running through the handle that dispenses through the Ferrule. Incredibly easy to reload with ink and in an emergency can also be used with blood. Simply raising the tip of the brush allows for it to be refilled. Can currently allow for up to fifty mid-sized drawings to be completed without being refilled. 30x Kunai 1x Tanto 100m of Wire 50m of Chakra Thread [/I] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【[U]Kekkei Genkai [/U]】 [I] [U]Name of Kekkei Genkai:[/u] N/A [U]Clan:[/U] N/A [U]Rank[/u] N/A [U]Description:[/U] N/A [/I] ------------------------------------------------------- [I]Jutsu:[/I] All applicable Academy and D-Rank techniques [hider=Canon Jutsu] [url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Earth_Release:_Hiding_Like_a_Mole_Technique]Doton: Moguragakure no Jutsu[/url] [url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Earth_Release%3A_Earth_Spear] Doton: Domu[/url] [url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Ink_Clone_Technique]Sumi Bunshin no Jutsu[/url] [url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Ink_Flush]Sumi Nagashi[/url] [url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Mud_Wall]Doton: Doryūheki[/url] [url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Summoning:_Lightning_Flash_Blade_Creation]Kuchiyose: Raikō Kenka[/url] [url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Unsealing_Technique]Kaifū no Jutsu[/url] [url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Summoning_Technique]Kuchiyose no Jutsu[/url] [url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Cloth_Binding_Technique]Nunoshibari no Jutsu[/url] [url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Five_Elements_Seal]Gogyō Fūin[/url] [url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Super_Beast_Imitating_Drawing]Chōjū Giga[/url] [url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Sealing_Technique:_Tiger_Vision_Staring_Bullet]Fūinjutsu: Koshi Tandan[/url][/hider] [hider=Custom Jutsu] [b]Name of Technique:[/b] Fūinjutsu: Bijutsukan (封印術: 美術館 – Sealing Technique: Eternal Museum) [b]Type of Jutsu:[/b] Fūinjutsu, Ninjutsu [b]Rank:[/b] C [b]Range:[/b] Personal [b]Nature Type:[/b] N/A [b]Description:[/b] Bijutsukan allows Āito to seal one of her drawings into her body, appearing as a tattoo. Through this technique she is able to store animals, objects, or figures in her body while being able to summon them through channeling chakra into the place in which it has been sealed. This can be anything that Āito paints. It is simply an alternative means of storage that avoids the middle-man that is the scroll she draws on and allows her to prepare for combat more aptly. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [b]Name of Technique:[/b] Chōjin Nise Ga 超神偽画 (Super Myth Imitation) [b]Type of Jutsu:[/b] Ninjutsu [b]Rank:[/b] B [b]Range:[/b] Personal [b]Nature Type:[/b] N/A [b]Description:[/b] By activating either Bijutsukan or drawing a fresh creature and performing the seal of confrontation Āito is able to summon forth creatures of myth itself. These may range from dragons, phoenixes, just about anything. As per usual with the art-based techniques Āito is known for the limit is on her imagination. This technique is primarily A-Rank because of the difference between these and the beasts created by Chōjū Giga. It takes much more chakra to create these monsters and as such they are more durable than the Chōjū Giga beasts. They can typically absorb a single Jutsu before turning back into ink. The other notable trait is that each of the beasts Āito can summon are able to utilize one elemental technique. It should be noted that only one of these creatures can be summoned at once and while they are more durable than a typical ink-based creation they are still fragile in comparison with other actual summoned beasts.

Effectively all she has to do is touch a limb of the opponent and the earth-based coating that was on her arm will transfer onto theirs. As this is not simply dirt, but chakra moulded Earth it can be forced to weigh a substantial amount which is the main application of this technique. It also does not [i]have[/i] to be applied to a person. This can slow an opponent, restrict movement, drown them, and various other applications. It does, however require physical contact. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [b]Name of Technique:[/b] Sumi Chūdoku 墨中毒 (Ink Poisoning) [b]Type of Jutsu:[/b] Ninjutsu, Bukijutsu [b]Rank:[/b] B [b]Range:[/b] Personal [b]Nature Type:[/b] N/A [b]Description:[/b] By wrapping the hilt of Āito’s Tanto with a scroll with the words Senkō Suru Āito is able to activate the scroll with the seal of confrontation. Utilizing it, spears of ink branch out of the hilt and attack the target, their sole purpose to inject ink into the bloodstream. While the body can handle a fair amount of ink, because of the nature of this technique and the fact that it deposits ink directly into the bloodstream. The technique need only connect for three full seconds during a fight to be fatal. Which is of course, cumulative. It is not immediately fatal, however as the veins will turn black and the head will stop receiving the proper amount of blood. The victim will become extremely dizzy, experience intense vomiting and eventually will die to heart failure. It is a slow and painful death that must be treated immediately. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [b]Name of Technique:[/b] Kami no Ishi 神の意志 (God’s Will) [b]Type of Jutsu:[/b] Ninjutsu [b]Rank:[/b] A [b]Range:[/b] Personal [b]Nature Type:[/b] N/A [b]Description:[/b] By writing a single word or verb (for example Senkō Suru is ‘to pierce’, which is a single verb) Āito is able to infuse a target with the word that she has written. The technique however is different from most art-based Ninjutsu. While typically one would write on a scroll, this technique requires writing on a palm. The palm then touches the target and the seal of confrontation is made and the Jutsu will activate. This may turn a target sturdy, brittle, sharp, soft, dull, wet, etc. The limits of this technique are once again related to the time required in preparation, its personal range, and the potentially lethal nature.
