Characterization
Physical Description
Standing at around 5'10, most would say that Juuko is the kind of guy that honestly doesn't stand out too much in a crowd. His features are distinctive, all hard angles around a somewhat feral looking half-grin with playful golden eyes, but he still manages to fade into the background in any bar or seedy den of ill respute. he dresses informally, in whatever he can grab, and does very little to care for his appearance aside from the bare minimum, often sporting a five o'clock shadow due to eithe r forgetting or not bothering to consistently shave it down. 

Physically, however, he is surprisingly fit for someone as seemingly ill-kept with a body made of lean muscle that had been toned by decades of exercise, training, and fieldwork. His dark black hair suits him well, drawing little attention in any place he goes, and despite his somewhat intimidating bearing at times, it's easy for most to gain, if not comfort in his presence, at least toleration. He blends in easily to any environment he finds himself in, sitting near the back with a drink in one hand and a smile on the other as if welcoming an old friend.

Personality & Prestige
Many would say that Juuko is sociopathic, bereft of any idea of right or wrong and willing to do whatever is asked of him without question so long as he gets to kill something. Those people would be wrong, but he can't blame them for seeing him in that light. Long ago, when the Civil War began, Juuko realized that the veneer of glory and patriotism that people described the life of a shinobi was made with pure, unadulterated bullshit. And rather than try to clean to a fake ideal, Juuko decided that the only proper way to get by in life was to simply accept the hand he had been dealt and do his best to enjoy life as he did so. When he's not working, Juuko likes to party, to drink, to drown himself in just about any vice he can find. Any attempts to shame him fall on deaf ears and he often ridicules those in his profession that like to profess and shield themselves in such values.

When it comes to work, however, Juuko turns into another man entirely, so much so that most who see both sides of him find themselves suffering from an intense sense of whiplash. On the job, Juuko is an efficient machine, a silent hunter that plans for every eventuality watches his prey for 50 days so that he can capitalize on the one day they make a mistake, a man that does anything and everything to ensure his mission succeeds. Casualties do not matter unless his job is to avoid them, and in many cases, no tactic is considered off the table unless explicitly told as such. But despite the rumors that say he revels in his work, despite the way that he even talks about some brutal jobs after the fact, he never seems to enjoy what he does in the moment. In fact, every moment on the job seems to bring him little more than a pained expression.

Name
Uzumaki Ena

Age
14

Rank
Geenin

Origin
Uzushiogakure

Chakra Nature
Water
Characterization
Physical Description
Ena is a young man, around 5'1 in terms of height and possessing an athletic build due to his intense focus on the perfection of his craft as a swordsman. He can usually be found wearing fine clothes such suits, vests, slacks, loafers, and so on when not engaged with his active shinobi duties, as it is to be expected for an Uzumaki to always look his best. His hair is always immaculately brushed, his teeth are as clean and white as can be, and every part of him speaks to a highly tailored image of perfection. . . all except his eyes. When you look into his gilded eyes, one can tell that not all is right with the young Uzumaki. No smile ever reaches them, and it is only when he grows angered by an insult to his skills or his clan that anything besides a cold hollowness occupies them. It is a well-maintained and well-practiced mask that Ena wears and rare is the person who he willing drops it for.

Personality & Prestige
Ena is a boy who's been giving everything he's ever wanted. A child who has been put on a pedestal his whole life, that has been expected to be one of the very best that the Uzumaki has to offer, a child that has had his every flaw and discrepancy ruthlessly picked over and critiqued. Despite the privilege and pampering that one would expect of one in his position as a scion of one of the more powerful(if not the most powerful, as they like to claim) clans within the elemental nations, to say the Ena's life was an easy one would be a grave mistake.

Due to this upbringing, the boy has a very high opinion of himself and his hard-earned skills, but this pride easily and harshly crumples into frustration and anger upon meeting even the smallest complication. This shows especially when he comes across people who don't respect his skills or the perceived prestige of his clan. While he is too well-trained to let these emotions fully surface, oftentimes those who draw his ire can find themselves the target of strange misfortunes in the form of a number debatably cruel pranks plaguing their day-to-day life for sometime after the slight was given. As such, even if he is all smiles and polite words, most that meet Ena come to see him as an untrustworthy, vindictive and arrogant brat that refuses to be humbled.

However, there are times when the softer sides of Ena's personality comes through, few and far between as they tend to be. While his arrogance does, in fact, know no bounds, when push comes to shove, he can be persuaded(as he puts it) to accept an alternate point of view. Slowly, his time in Konoha has helped him. . . ease up. He'd be lying if he said he didn't feel much less pressure in his current environment than back in his home. That being the case, he still struggles to truly connect with anyone as the barriers he's put up all his life still hold strong, even if he does wish it could often be otherwise. Alas, his caretaker is often times the small reminder he needs to remember his place in the world, what he means to his clan, and most of all, his duties to them. To ask for any other kind of life is a childish notion, and to foster it for even a second is a poison to the mind.

Origin
Ena was not allowed a childhood. Since the moment he was born, he was considered not as a person, but as a symbol. Of National Pride, of Purity, of the prestige and power of the clan. He was not raised by his parents and would not be able to tell someone who they even were if pressed. For as long as he lived, he had been passed by a number of impartial, cold mentors whose job was not to raise him but to teach him to be the very best he could be. From one day to the next, it was just a non-stop deluge of lessons from harsh, strict adults who never had the patience for his childish needs.

You may not cry, you may not complain, you may not yell, you may not scream, all these rules and more were heaped upon him as a way to help him learn the control to handle the curse of his bloodline. They were tried and true methods to shut down and control the bestial nature that every Uzumaki struggled with. . . or so was the explanation that Ena was given whenever he questioned his treatment. And so it was that Ena grew up practically alone, the first time he ever truly interacted with someone in a way that wasn't strictly someone trying to teach him was when he first met his instructor in the Whirling Blades Style. While an Uzumaki in name, the man had been born outside of the compound, had lived outside of the interlaced matrices of Fuinjutsu that kept them separated from the outside world for hundreds of years. To this day, Ena does not know how the man was ever allowed inside the village, but it was with this man that the boy found the closest thing he could call a father figure. He was truthful and direct when so may others only spoke in distant half-tones, he was empathetic while others were cold, and while he couldn't show it as often as Ena would've liked due to the constant supervision they were under at nearly all times. . . he cared for Ena. Genuinely cared for him, for who Ena was and not just for what Ena represented as a pureblood Uzumaki.

Character Development & Conceptualization
For Ena, I'm imagining a boy whose struggling to find himself in life, trapped between two sides of himself. On one hand, he wants to prove his Clan proud and has a deep respect for the traditions of Uzushio. But on the other hand, he can't help but feel those same traditions have become stifling for him, and despite the best intentions of his elders, he can't help but feel anything but anxiety and stress whenever he thinks about his position in the world, of the immense responsibility he has to his Clan, and to the way his entire future seems to already have been set of him. It pushes him to rebel against these conventions, but whether or not that's what he needs or what will bring him happiness is something that will have to be seen as the RP goes forward. 

It certainly doesn't help that his bloodline proves to make holding his temper even harder than is normal for a boy his age, and every time he denies himself the chance to really let loose and lash out, he can't help but ask: Why not? Why shouldn't he just wreck everything if it gives at least some release to the immense pressure he feels building inside of him every day.
Attributes
Talents & Abilities
Uzumaki Fuinjutsu Practioner: As an Uzumaki, it is only natural that Ena is well-versed in the complexities of the art of fuinjutsu. While his time away from his former mentors have left him wanting somewhat in terms of learning more of the Uzumaki specific applications, his time in Konoha has not been entirely fruitless as the vast libraries present in the village have allowed him to keep up his own self-study at an appreciable pace in other areas of his fuinjutsu skill. Applications of his fuinjutsu mastery include the ability to form nearly any basic sealing tags, as well as the formation of rather powerful explosive tags.

Aside from combat applications, Ena is more than capable of devising sealing formulas to assist in a number of unforeseen ways if given time to study the issue, including but not limited seals that can help to assist in the regulation of chakra circulation, seals to drive away fatigue, and even a seal that can serve to bind a weakened target by assaulting their very nervous system, though the time and preparation needed to perform it makes it impossible to use in a combat scenario.

Skilled Kenjutsu Practioner: An oddity amongst the Uzumaki, Ena has chosen to become a swordsman, rather than taking to the more accepted Kusarigama that the Uzumaki is often none to employ in tandem with their seals to confound and disable their foes. Instead, Ena assaults his foe with acrobatic and flashy forms, relying on the natural gifts and aggression granted by his Uzumaki blood to let him overwhelm his opponent and ultimately control the direction of the fight. On top of this skillful use of blades, he is able to decently hold his own win hand to hand combat using similar principles, but certainly not to the same extent as he is with them.
An archaic and, truthfully, near-dead style of swordplay developed as a collaboration between Konoha and Uzushio in the years before the 2nd Shinobi War. It is a style the focuses on the use of both speed and power to batter an opponent and direct them across a battlefield as if they're being pulled this way and that by a violent whirlpool. While usually performed with the use of two blades to accent the aggressive slant of this style, it can also be used with just a single blade with little adjustments needing to be made.

A very crucial part of this style is the use of constant movement to keep the opponent off-balance and unable to gain a proper bearing. To assist in this, a whirling blades stylist often makes use of sealing tags that can be littered across the battlefield before and during the battle that they can direct their foe towards and thus allow them to capitalize on their opponent's lack of focus. For most people, the intense acrobatics the style calls for to be effective would make it only effective in short bursts, if at all, as it can be extremely draining on both one's chakra reserves and stamina to keep up such an assault. However for the Uzumaki, who naturally possess immense stores of both chakra and stamina, find themselves able to keep up with the demands with great ease.

Despite Ena's pride in his skill in this style, it is a bit of a sticking point in terms of his standing with his clan. For many Uzumaki, use of the Whirling Blades style is described as unrefined at best and absolutely primitive at worst, as it's hyper-aggression often leads to its practitioners giving in to the blood rages of the Uzumaki much easier than the majority finds acceptable. While Ena continues to show an acceptable amount of restraint in managing his rages, it can be seen that it's often only just and in the heat of battle, the signs of him nearly losing his grip on his emotions is often clearly seen to those who no what to look for.


Pure blooded Uzumaki: A product of very careful breeding and intermixing of the Uzumaki bloodline, Ena is considered an Uzumaki of truly pureblood, an honor that comes with drastic benefits and downsides. While gifted with the expected Uzumaki traits of large reserves of chakra and stamina, powerful life energy, and a talent for fuinjutsu, as well as the likelihood of eventually being able to manifest the vaunted Enishi-no-Kusari, the chain that is able to bind spirits and beings of chakra with great ease that make these Uzumaki a force to be feared. But along with this, these Uzumaki are subjected to much stronger instincts from the curse of their bloodlines. 

Their rages are fiercer, their tempers like that of a wild animal that seeks to tear everything before it to shreds. As such, Ena had been placed under strict supervision and discipline since both to ensure that he's able to main control of his blood and not the other way around. Despite this, however, Ena often finds himself struggling daily to contain his outbursts and emotions, both to appease his fellow clan members and to keep the darker side of himself at bay. But it often irritates him to no end that he must even keep up the facade. Often times, he finds himself wondering what it would be like to simply. . . let go of his grip and truly let the built-up aggression and savagery out upon the world at large.

Calculated Awareness: Due to his preferred method of combat, Ena has developed his senses and perceptive capabilities to keep him attune to his environments in full, giving him an excellent sense of spatial awareness and allowing him to quickly memorize the layouts of any place he's been to and create a mental map that is hardly ever inaccurate. even in maze-like environments, he proves able to easily backtrack his steps without any hesitation.

Planning: More than anything else, Ena is a planner and he likes to account for as many variables as he can when orchestrating a plan of attack or defense. If given enough time, Ena is able to come up with rather devilish schemes that are befitting his Uzumaki heritage, making use of fuinjutsu, environment, and even his own allies to tray and lure his foes into springing his deviously laid traps.

Custom Jutsu:
A form of chakra enhancement that makes up the basis of the Whirling Blades Style. By manipulating the flow of chakra through his body, Ena is able to enhance his strength, speed, and agility by a noticeable degree, enabling him to perform the Whirling Blades style at the intensity necessary to make full effect of it's calculated aggression. While under the effect of this ability, chakra flows around his body like a spiral of light blue mist.


This a set of sealing matrices developed by Ena as a way to try and get past Nozomi's stealth-based jutsu. While this seal is incapable of achieving that function at present, a fact that infuriates Ena to no end, it has proven to be an effective technique in other matters. 

In essence, the technique functions by turning a normal sealing tag into a sort of chakra emitter, sending out brief pulses of chakra into the environment around it. The chakra pulses are invisible to the naked eye but upon interacting with the chakra of others, it creates a sort of energy sonar imaging that can be perceived by anyone who currently has a matching Reciever seal with stuck to their bodies or engraved into an article of clothing they have for a more permanent application. For those wearing a receiver, the information of the pulses appears in their vision as a red outline of the target and can even show the shapes of Ninjutsu and certain forms of genjutsu as well.

The weakness of this technique is that the chakra pulses prove unreliable in the tracking of hidden or suppressed sources of chakra, providing either a barely visible smudge of an outline or none whatsoever. Not only that, but if someone catches on to the trick it is quite possible for it to be turned against the user by someone who knows how to manipulate their chakra in certain ways, as it can't tell the difference between clones, nor is it able to register any object that is devoid of chakra entirely. As such, it's best used in conjunction with other tactics to assist the user and their allies in planning stealthy attacks under intense cover than as a way of finding enemies skilled at hiding their presence.




A basic technique among the Uzumaki clan, it allows Ena to manifest the divine chains that bind the cursed blood of the Kitsune goddess that flows through his veins. Crimson like blood in appearance, the chains have little offensive capability in this state, though despite their near-weightless nature they prove to be rather resilient to most forms of normal forms of attack though chakra enhanced strikes or strong ninjutsu can do the trick in breaking them. They can also be rather simple disrupted by any technique that can drain or suppress chakra directly.

In this state, while Ena is unable to use these chains effectively as an offensive measure, he tends to use these chains to help increase his mobility on the battlefield. By launching the chains out to a wall, a piece of ground, or ceiling, or even an object currently flying through the air, he can quickly pull himself to that position by briefly binding the target to him and reeling himself towards it. This can also be done to living targets, but this isn't suggested due to the fact that one can break this chain by simple pulsing their chakra through it similar to a genjutsu kai technique.

Sapporo, Japan 
Ishin Academy

As students both old and new milled about the front gates of Ishin, a lone girl stood amongst them, hesitating to cross the threshold before her as if there was a huge wall before her. Her long pointed ears drooped as she looked towards the main building, curling a lock of pinkish purple hair around her finger as she seemed to be struggling with some kind of decision internally, the fingers of her other hand tapping rhythmically on the handle of her rolling luggage bag.

Come on, Camilla. Just be yourself, no need to worry about anything. You made it in, things can only get go up from here, right? She thought, brightening up and almost taking that first step, only for another part of her to speak up, seeming insistent on trying to take the wind out of her sails and kick her back into 'reality'.

Except if the racist assholes in this place decide to kick you to the curb for some minor thing. Then they get the brownie points of “at least we tried” while also enforcing their bullshit philosophy of how shitty foreigners are. Why are you even here?

To learn from the school that dad learned to be a hero, and show them just how wrong they are for thinking something like where someone is born makes people less qualified to be here! Stop worrying, everything will be fine!

Will it really? How sure can you be when you haven’t even met your teacher?

And so her thoughts continued to go in circles for a few moments more before Camilla finally snapped out of it with two quick slaps to her cheeks. After taking a breath to calm herself, the young american took her first step onto Ishin academy proper, her ears wiggling a bit in fearful excitement as she wondered how her time here was going to be. She'd never been this far away from her family before, heck, she'd never even had a sleep over before, yet now she was going to have to be by herself for months in a country she'd never even been to before a week ago. Everything seemed so strange and exotic, so much so that even though her eldest brother Trenton(who had been to Japan numerous times with their dad) had shown her around the city in order to help her get situated, she still couldn't quite believe she was here.

The same could probably be said for most of these students about us. That negative part of her subconscious said, seemingly incapable of not chiming in, much to Camilla's frustration.They're looking at you, even now. Judging you. Just waiting for you to slip up and prove every nasty idea in their heads right.

On this point, her inner cynic was at least partially right. Even before she decided to stand in front of the school gates like a statue for a few minutes, she had noticed quite a few students looking at her with a verity of expressions both positive and negative. No matter how much she'd like to believe otherwise, she was certain that there would be people here who already had their minds made up about her. But rather than fixate on that fact, she shook her head, ears perking up as she approached the doors to the academy. So what if they decided to be bigots? She wasn't going to give them the satisfaction of being cowed by their prejudice attitudes, and who knows, she might even change a few minds along the way.

With her mindset and her resolve mostly hardened, Camilla made her way to the meeting hall, walking in with silent steps as she looked around for a place to sit. After a few assessments of the crowd as a whole, she decided to sit up front next to this one girl who seemed like they might be in a similar boat as her. As she approached, however, she couldn't help but notice that she looked a bit. . . tense? Or at the very least apprehensive. It'll be fine, just walk up, smile, and introduce yourself. and things will be just fine. Strangers are just friends you've yet to make, right?

With this in mind, the young girl walked up to her fellow student, ears pulling back slightly as she made her presence known with a soft "Excuse me?", the Japanese coming out a little slowly as she wanted to be sure she didn't mess up anything in her nervousness.

"Uhm. . . Hi. Name's Camilla Yumi and I was wondering if you'd mind if I sit next to you?"
