[center][sup][sup][h3]⌈APPEARANCE⌋[/h3][/sup][/sup][color=gray]167cm[color=4a634a]•[/color] 68kg[/color][/center][indent][indent][indent][color=gray]Lean and light on his feet, Ryouzan carries an air of calmness about him wherever he goes. His default expression is a gentle smile and he walks with a smooth, relaxed gait. He keeps his hair neatly trimmed, though he doesn't put too much effort into styling it. After all, it's likely to be messed up on his next mission anyway. While many members of the Tanzou clan have "hawk-like" feature's, Ryouzan's are less pronounced. He has a small nose with a slightly rounded chin, and his red eyes have gentle curves to them. Because of his calm demeanor and gentle features, he has earned the nickname Tanzou no Hato (The dove of Tanzou).

Then, there is his partner, Tsumemaru. Tsumemaru is a peregrine falcon with a body length of 50cm and a wingspan of 121cm. He weighs 1.5kg and has a speckled black and tan plumage. His beak is bright yellow and his head is a strikingly dark shade of black. When he is not carrying out a task for Ryouzan, he can be found perched on his partner's shoulder, standing upright and watching anyone who approaches vigilantly.[/color][/indent][/indent][/indent]

[center][sup][sup][h3]⌈CLOTHING⌋[/h3][/sup][/sup][color=gray]functional[color=4a634a]•[/color] Dark gray and rust red[/color][/center][indent][indent][indent][color=gray]Shinobi Wear - Ryouzan relies on quick movements, so his typical battle wear consists of a light vest over fishnet undergarments. His black vest contains various pockets where he keeps his shinobi tools. He also wears loose-fitting black pants and basic sandals. On his right arm, he wears a falconer's glove. This is a thick leather gauntlet that extends all the way up his shoulder, protecting him from Tsumemaru's talons as he perches. The glove is also lined with pockets containing kunai so that Tsumemaru can grab them as he takes flight. 

Casual Wear - Ryouzan tends to wear more when he isn't about to plunge into a life or death struggle. He has a thicker black vest that looks a bit more fashionable, and wears an undershirt with a stylish black design. He keeps his loose fitting pants and sandals for comfort, but he'll often adorn himself with a red sash or scarf. He says it's to keep the wind out of his face, but he just enjoys having something billowing behind him majestically. He has a lighter falconer glove with only one emergency kunai in it, but Tsumemaru still needs a place to perch. 

Sleep Wear - Ryouzan sleeps in a red silk robe. His right arm is wrapped in a bandage when he removes his falconer glove in case he needs to take off with Tsumemaru in an emergency. [/color][/indent][/indent][/indent]

[center][sup][sup][h3]⌈SUPPLY⌋[/h3][/sup][/sup][/center][indent][indent][indent][color=gray] Ryouzan carries with him a shrill whistle, used for communicating with Tsumemaru over long distances where gestures cannot be seen. He also carries a spool of thin razor wire, three-pronged hooks, and tags that look like explosive tags but shoot out bursts of wind instead. The only sentimental heirlooms he carries are a set of feathers from his deceased mother and siblings. They are feathers plucked from their falcons and fashioned into keepsakes after their death. A Tanzou falcon loses its will to live when its partner dies, so a shinobi is buried with their falcon and a feather is plucked to represent their spirit.[/color][/indent][/indent][/indent]

[center][b][color=black]建前[/color][/b][sup][sup][h3]⌈TATEMAE⌋[/h3][/sup][/sup][color=gray]Placid [color=4a634a]•[/color] Kind [color=4a634a]•[/color] Determined[/color][/center][indent][indent][indent][color=gray]Ryouzan generally maintains a calm demeanor, even in stressful situations. He's very slow to anger, and is unlikely to be openly hostile or antagonistic towards any of his fellow Kusagakure shinobi. Rather than hearty laughter he'll give a serene smile, and rather than expressing annoyance he'll quietly furrow his brow. He's eager to help his friends and companions, and those that consider him a friend will attest to his loyalty. He upholds proper manners and carries himself with dignity, not just to protect the honor of his family name, but out of respect for his fellow man. His calm demeanor is not to be mistaken for lack of passion, though. When he sets his mind to accomplish something, he is tenacious to a fault. He doesn't believe in giving up, and if he sees anyone doing so, he'll simply reply, "I guess you didn't really want it to begin with."  

Tsumemaru, on the other hand, is like a smoldering flame ready to lash out at a moment's notice. Always vigilant, the falcon is acutely aware of all who would approach his partner, and makes it known he is aware. Any unfamiliar faces are greeted with a screech and an aggressive fluttering of wings. People often joke about how such a calm shinobi got paired with such a paranoid bird. However, Tsumemaru is disciplined, and would never act out without Ryouzan's okay. Just don't try to pet him. He WILL bite. [/color][/indent][/indent][/indent]

[center][b][color=black]本音[/color][/b][sup][sup][h3]⌈HONNE⌋[/h3][/sup][/sup][color=gray]Fearful [color=4a634a]•[/color] Insecure [color=4a634a]•[/color] Desperate[/color][/center][indent][indent][indent][color=gray]The placid front that Ryouzan displays hides the churning and often chaotic currents that flow beneath it. The Second Shinobi War took its toll on the Tanzou clan, and Ryouzan had to cope with the loss of numerous loved ones at a young age. The reality that death can come at an instant is deeply ingrained into him, and so he often fears losing even more friends and family. At the same time, as a mere genin he feels as though he lacks the power to protect what he loves. The determination and diligence that his comrades and teachers see is at least in part due to Ryouzan's feelings of insufficiency. When he is alone, he will often meditate, trying to control his fears and negativity, knowing that he needs to become strong enough to carry such burdens.

The bond between a falconer and a falcon is deep, and as such, Tsumemaru senses the turbulence within Ryouzan. The falcon's paranoia stems from a sense of protectiveness and unconditional love for his partner. He sees strangers as yet another potential burden for his partner, however, those that get close to Ryouzan will sometimes see a gentler side to the bird. Even then, don't try to pet him. He WILL bite. That right is reserved solely for Ryouzan. [/color][/indent][/indent][/indent]

[center][sup][sup][h3]⌈NINDŌ⌋[/h3][/sup][/sup][color=4a634a]Never let go[/color][/center][indent][indent][indent][color=gray]A simple phrase passed down among the Tanzou with a meaning deeply rooted in their falconry. The phrase invokes the image of a falcon gripping onto its prey, but also its gentle grip on a falconer's arm. Thus, the nindo represents both determination in battle and loyalty to family. Ryouzan uses this nindo to channel the negative emotions within him into positive actions. Thus his fear of loss is transformed into undying loyalty to his companions and an unyielding spirit in battle.[/color][/indent][/indent][/indent]

[center][sup][sup][h3]⌈MOTIVATIONS⌋[/h3][/sup][/sup][color=4a634a]Protect[/color][/center][indent][indent][indent][color=gray]Ryouzan cares little for fame and recognition, and openly states that he would never accept the position of Kage. Ryouzan fights for the safety of his family, his friends, and for Kusagakure as a whole. He's willing to shed his blood for the peace that follows battle. He finds the idea of serving in Anbu appealing, as he feels he can do the most good from that position. However, he knows that this is a long way off, and for now, attaining the rank of Chuunin is what his mind should be on.[/color][/indent][/indent][/indent]

[center][sup][sup][h3]⌈NARRATIVE⌋[/h3][/sup][/sup][/center][indent][indent][indent][color=gray]Members of the Tanzou clan are paired with falcons from birth. Generations of secret breeding techniques have yielded falcons that grow and age at the same rate that humans do. So, Ryouzan's earliest memories are those of his mother, and of Tsumemaru. Ryouzan could call and hold his falcon before he could walk, and the two never spent a day of their lives apart. Ryouzan had little trouble getting along with other children even if Tsumemaru was a bit of a troublemaker among the other falcons. Life was peaceful and prosperous for Ryouzan, until the second Shinobi war broke out. 

He was still just a child and far to young to be sent into battle, but even at that young age, Ryouzan noticed a shift in his daily training and lessons. They became more "practical," which really meant that they were now teaching him how to kill. And while Tanzou was safe from war, his parents and older siblings were not. The Tanzou skill-set made them well-equipped for scouting and recon missions. They were the ones plunging into unknown enemy territory and gathering information to make other missions possible. Ryouzan thought it was the coolest job in the world and couldn't wait until he was old enough... until his oldest brother's body was brought back from a mission.

His brother's funeral was a turning point in Ryouzan's life. A hero he looked up to now lay cold and dead before him. His brother's falcon, who had always been playful and energetic, now perched on the corpse like a statue, no joy, life, or any discernible emotion left in its eyes. They put the falcon down just before the burial, and Ryouzan burst into tears, clutching the feather to his chest. This wouldn't be the last time Ryouzan saw family die. His other older brother and his older sister both died in the war. Then finally, during what would become the last battle of the war, he lost his mother. 

Ryouzan's father did his best to hold the family together. As head of the clan he had a responsibility to keep things moving forward, but he was still human. On quiet nights, Ryouzan could hear his father, crying in his room alone. Ryouzan knew that he and Tsumemaru would have to do their part as well to carry the clan through these difficult times. He still had one younger brother to protect, and a whole village he needed to help rebuild. From then on, Ryouzan took responsibilities onto himself and practiced his falconry diligently, making his father proud. Where once he was the admirer, he now had a little brother that looked up to him, and he kept a good reputation among his shinobi peers.

Kusagakure is his home, and he will protect it.[/color][/indent][/indent][/indent]

[center][sup][sup][h3]⌈PRIMARY⌋[/h3][/sup][/sup][color=4a634a]Nintaka[/color][/center][indent][indent][indent][color=gray]The core of Ryouzan's, and every Tanzou's, combat prowess is his falconry. Ryouzan has trained with Tsumemaru from birth, and can link his chakra with his falcon's to perform various techniques. He can communicate with Tsumemaru using subtle gestures. Even if an enemy shinobi notices the gestures, they would be undecipherable. Each falconer develops a sort of short hand with their falcons, so even other members of the Tanzou clan would have difficulty reading Ryouzan's communications. He also has a whistle that he can use to communicate when he is out of sight or at too great a distance to use gestures. His falconry skills are three-fold. He has skills that enhance his vision and movement, which are good for reconnaissance. He utilizes collaboration techniques with Tsumemaru to unleash powerful jutsu in combat. And, he has various fighting techniques specifically catered to coordinate fighting with a falcon.[/color][/indent][/indent][/indent]

[center][sup][sup][h3]⌈SECONDARY⌋[/h3][/sup][/sup][color=4a634a]Fuuton Jutsu[/color][/center][indent][indent][indent][color=gray]Members of the Tanzou clan tend to have affinities for wind chakra. Ryouzan uses the element as a supplement to his falconry. Wind affinity allows for quick movement during reconnaissance and for disorientating attacks during battle. He also uses wind chakra to enhance his attacks. However, he does not rely on raw elemental power to carry him in combat.[/color][/indent][/indent][/indent]

[center][sup][sup][h3]⌈TERTIARY⌋[/h3][/sup][/sup][color=4a634a]Taijutsu[/color][/center][indent][indent][indent][color=gray]Ryozan's Taijutsu, the tsume-ken, is another means of supplementing his falconry. Essentially, for those instances where he gets in close and needs to go for the kill, he has a set of practical techniques for taking down his opponent. He will not be winning any martial arts competitions, but he can hold his own until he coordinates with Tsumemaru for a new attack.[/color][/indent][/indent][/indent]

Ryozan carries a spool of thin razor wire. The wire is 150 ft. long and is made of a special metal that can conduct chakra. Ryouzan's falconer glove has a compartment that holds the spool in place, and much like a fishing reel, he can determine if it pulls freely or locks. Tsumemaru has a tiny bangle on his leg that can hold this wire. Ryouzan can attach and release it, or Tsumemaru is trained to attach and release it himself. Likewise, the apparatus in his gauntlet can cut off a length of wire if Ryouzan wants to release it on his end. The wire is, as its name suggests, razor sharp and can easily cut through flesh. The chakra channeling makes the wire extra strong and allows for fine control of the wire, and also allows it to be used to execute certain jutsus. Tsumemaru and Ryouzan can coordinate their movements to strategically manipulate the movements of the wire. The weakness is that this weapon is not particularly effective in closed in areas, or dense terrain with numerous obstacles; the wire is likely to get caught. 
[color=2e2c2c]-[/color]
The Three Pronged hooks resemble large fishing hooks and are about the size of a kunai. The hooks fold in for storage, but lock into place once they are pulled out for battle. These hooks can be used in tandem with the razor wire, or can be utilized on their own. The are an unorthodox weapon and require coordination and setup to utilize effectively. Simply throwing one at the enemy will have little effect, so the barbs must be made to dig into the enemy, either by a flyby or a crafty use of razor wire. 
[color=2e2c2c]-[/color]
Gale Tags resemble explosive tags, but shoot out a burst of wind instead of an explosion. They can be triggered at will by Ryouzan and can be attached to a weapon like a shuriken or kunai for a burst of speed, or can be left strategically on the environment. They are not damaging on their own, but can be used to set up devastating attacks.[/color][/cell][/row][/table][/indent][/indent]

[sub][sup][color=2e2c2c]▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔[/color][/sup][/sub][/cell][cell][color=gray]This is the main technique of the Tsume-ken style. Ryouzan channels chakra into his hands to give him a grip strength as strong as his falcon's. When grappling a limb, his grip strength is enough to break bone. If he gets his hands on his opponent's throat, it can be lethal. This is strictly a short range grappling technique and its efficacy is limited by one's own proficiency in taijutsu. 
[color=2e2c2c]-[/color]
Ryouzan links his chakra with Tsumemaru's to create up to a dozen clones of Tsumemaru. At this technique's current level, the clones are non-substantive, and are used primarily to confuse or disorientate the enemy. 
[color=2e2c2c]-[/color]

Ryouzan channels wind chakra into his feet, allowing him to move with a sudden burst of speed. He can use it defensively to evade attacks, or offensively to get a sudden strike on the enemy. The technique [i]can[/i] be used in rapid succession, but is extremely taxing on Ryouzan's body to do so. Each step is one quick burst of movement, but altering trajectory is impossible once committed to a step. [/color][/cell][/row][/table][/indent][/indent]

[sub][sup][color=2e2c2c]▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔[/color][/sup][/sub][/cell][cell][color=gray]The most vital of all Tanzou reconnaissance techniques. Ryouzan links his chakra with Tsumemaru's and can transfer his senses to his falcon's. He sees, hears, feels, etc. everything as Tsumemaru does. This grants him vision sharp enough to even read small print from 100 meters away. While in this state, Ryouzan is oblivious to his surroundings, so it his best to use it with a spotter. His current range limit to this technique is 2 miles. 
[color=2e2c2c]-[/color]
Ryouzan links his chakra with Tsumemaru and channels wind chakra into them both. While in motion, the air swirls around each of them in small, but violent cyclones. Impact with an enemy results in destructive force. The faster they are moving, the more powerful their cyclones are, and since their chakra is linked, their cyclones are identical in nature. For example, if Tsumemaru is moving fast, but Ryouzan is standing still, wind will swirl around them both at a moderate level. This technique requires motion, otherwise it is ineffective. 
[color=2e2c2c]-[/color]
While not a weapon, Ryouzan can use his whistle to perform the falcon screech. He channels his chakra into the whistle and lets out a piercing note that can deafen and disorientate enemies within earshot. The downside is that this effects allies as well if they are unprepared. As a courtesy, Ryouzan typically carries earplugs with him and gives them to his teammates in case he needs to use this technique. [/color][/cell][/row][/table][/indent][/indent]

If it does not finish his enemy, he'd better pray backup is on the way.
