Yukiko Amaya [Chuunin Update] [Complete]

General Information
Name: Amaya, Yukiko.

Nickname/Alias: None.

Age: 17.

Gender: Female.

Looks: Yuki usually wears a dark brown, sleeveless top that is fairly tight-fitting. From mid-way between her shoulders and elbows, she wears small, red-brown armbands with her village symbol etched onto a small metal plate attached to them. Lightweight, opaque fabric is attached to these bands and reaches down to her wrists. These pieces of fabric are, for all intents and purposes, sleeves. She wears red-brown, fingerless gloves that give her more grip. She wears ash-black shinobi trousers that reach to just below her knees. Over the top of these, however, she wears a lightweight, tan-brown cloth that acts as a sort of dress or skirt. Her shinobi sandals are red-brown, like her armbands and gloves, and reach to just above her ankles. She has a blade holster attached to her back, and a belt just above the top of her skirt. Attached to this belt are four tanto and two medium-sized item pouches. Yuki does not wear a forehead protector, her village symbol is etched onto the small metal plates on her armbands.



Personality: Put simply, Yukiko does not do things by halves. She is a very committed individual; always finishing a task she starts. If she knows she cannot complete a task, she will not even begin or attempt it. This attitude also translates into her hard-working attitude when training or on a mission.

As one might expect, Yuki has little time for social events. She does have friends – close ones even – though they are admittedly few in number. Those who dislike her tend to stay well clear, her serious personality frightening them enough to keep them from voicing their dislike. Her primary hate is boredom; she is always looking for something to do and cannot cope with an empty timetable. To this end, she is often rallying her close friends to go and train or explore.

It would be naïve to say or think that Yuki is always a serious individual. As long as she is with company that she is comfortable with, she’ll happily chat, joke around and enjoy herself. That is, if it doesn’t involve anything she would consider ‘childish’. Over the last three years she has learned to loosen up a little. Her time as a Genin amongst her companions and comrades taught her not to take everything as seriously as she had before. Of course, she still retains her focused attitude, but she is learning to joke around and laugh more often.

Personality Trait's: Precision. Yuki is exacting in her work, partly because the dangerous substances she wields require this, and partly because her personality has developed as such.

Catch Phrase: None.

Clan Information

Clan Name: N/A.

Kekkei Genkai: Though Yukiko does not belong to any known clan, she does have an innate ability that is assumed to be genetically inherited. Neither of her parents have the same ability, however.

Yukiko is able to create a number of different poisons and their respective antidotes within her body to be released in liquid or gaseous forms. Note that this only creates the poisons - it does not expel them from the body. One drop of an antidote is enough to reverse a poison's effects. Yukiko has developed this into a number of taijutsu and ninjutsu techniques she calls the “Hebi Ryuu [Snake Style]”. It is recognizable by the color of the poison of the jutsu or that surrounds the attacking item (be it a weapon or body part).

Skill Information

Skill Specialty:
Primary: Ninjutsu.
Secondary: Taijutsu.

Elemental Affinity:
Primary: Suiton [Water].
Secondary: Fuuton [Wind].

Special Characteristics: Having honed her physical capabilties to their peak for her age, her strength, stamina and speed exceed the average. In particular her physical strength, augmented by her precise chakra control, has become truly impressive.

Items/Weapons:

1x 18” Katana [in weapon holster on back]
25x Standard kunai [in item pouch #1]
15x Explosive tags [in item pouch #1]
25x Standard shuriken [in item pouch #2]
2x 10” Tanto [attached to belt]
2x 7” Knuckle blades [attached to belt]

Name: Dokufuki [Poisonous Notes].
Appearance: Almost identical to the standard explosive notes, these simply bear a different type of seal on the paper, which varies depending on the sealed poison.
Rank: D.
Special Abilities: Acting just like an exploding tag, these notes however do not explode with heat, light and gunpowder. Instead, they explode in a similarly large cloud of poison. The cloud extends about eight metres in every direction and is fully formed only a second after the tag explodes. Yuki possesses a stock of tags for each poison she is able to produce and the effects are just the same. Released via a D-ranked item, the poison remains in the target for 3 posts.
Origin: After learning of Yukiko's fairly well-kept secret techniques, her sensei offered to try to seal these poisons in tags for her to use. After a few attempts and with Yukiko's help in understanding the poisons, she succeeded and provided the young kunoichi with a stock for each poison.

Name: Kusari-gama [Kusari-gama].
Appearance: A powerful ranged weapon, the kusari-gama consists of a handle, chain and offensive item at the end. This custom version has an eight-inch handle, twelve metre chain, a cluster (three) of small, teardrop-shaped weights at the end of the chain.
Rank: C.
Special Abilities: Apart from being finely crafted and resilient to damage, there is one extra trick this weapon holds. Encased inside each of the teardrop-shaped weights are ten small pellets that can be released by flicking a small switch on the handle of the weapon. When released, up to five fall from each weight at one time, making this trick useable up to two times in one topic. These pellets are composed of tightly bound and rolled exploding tags, and each pellet explodes with half the force of one tag. If ten or more explode together, the effect is very destructive.
Origin: After discovering that, whilst strong and versatile a weapon the kusari-gama was, it was lacking in finishing effect. After adjusting the size of the weights at the end, Yukiko was able to fashion small exploding notes that rolled into tiny pellets. Fitting these inside the weights, she took the weapon to the local technician and paid him to create a locking and unlocking mechanism for these weights.

Name: Kurokongousen Uwagi [Carbon Fibre Jerkin]
Appearance: A lightweight, tight-fitting undershirt that Kaede wears when on duty. The base material is carbon ore, an ash black metal that is extremely resilient to damage. Engineered into a fibrous substance, carbon fibre is little heavier than a regular item of clothing, but offers considerable protection to the torso and upper arms of the wearer. Regular stabs and slashes are foiled by this remarkable material.
Rank: C.
Special Abilities: Other than the astonishing feat of creating such a material and managing to craft it into a jerkin, the item itself possesses no 'special' abilities.
Origin: Understanding that this was not the type of item the general blacksmith would agree to create for her, Yukiko took her idea to the best she knew of in Sunagakure. The metal she herself provided and refused to reveal where she had acquired such a material. For a nominal fee, the man took a whole week to create the substance. Taking the material with her, Yuki then visited the armory, whom she paid to fashion it into a tight-fitting undershirt.

Name: Kurokongousen Udegoei [Carbon Fibre Bracers]
Appearance: A lightweight pair of bracers. The base material is carbon ore, an ash black metal that is extremely resilient to damage. Engineered into a fibrous substance, carbon fibre is little heavier than a regular item of clothing, but offers considerable protection to the torso and upper arms of the wearer. Regular stabs and slashes are foiled by this remarkable material.
Rank: C.
Special Abilities: They have long reels of strengthened wire hidden beneath. Kaede can release this wire to whip at a target, to latch onto various objects or to control ranged weapons’ flight paths. A small contraption has been added underneath to store and release this wire.
Origin: Understanding that this was not the type of item the general blacksmith would agree to create for her, Yukiko took her idea to the best she knew of in Sunagakure. The metal she herself provided and refused to reveal where she had acquired such a material. For a nominal fee, the man took a whole week to create the substance. At a later date, Yuki also requested a wire-releasing contraption be added.

Background Information Yukiko was born in Sunagakure, 14 years ago. She matured quickly, seeming to be 'older' than the other children of her age. Her parents explained this as her 'adaptable nature' combined with having to learn to cope with the harsh conditions of her country. She took to the ideals and way of shinobi life, her parents eventually letting her join the academy aged 11.

It was there she made her first real friends, though only a handful of them. Yuki didn't mind, she preferred smaller groups of tightly-knit friends anyway. One of these friends was training to learn one of Sunagakure's specialist techniques - puppetry. Yuki was fascinated, and tried to learn all she could about it. She spent a month making a very simple puppet the show her classmates. Unfortunately, it broke as soon as one of them tried to use it, and Yuki was joked about across the class. At home, Yuki explained what had happened to her parents, who comforted her and told her she could always find a different skill. She told them about her favourite parts of the puppetry technique, one of which was the poisons they sometimes used. Her mother, a herbalist suggested that she learn about herbal concoctions from her. Eager to learn something she might be good at, Yuki spent most of her free time learning the trade from her mother.

A month into this extra 'education', her father made a suggestion that Yuki was thrilled to hear. He had been doing some research, and reckoned it was possible to combine her newfound knowledge with shinobi skills and chakra, giving her a as yet undiscovered talent amongst her peers. She continued with her mother's lessons, but found time to train with her father too. Yuki forsook a social life for the best part of a year, and her grades dropped in the academy. At 12 years old, she was near the bottom of the class. However, by this time she had a handle of her talent, and was ready to begin again with her shinobi training.

She impressed the academy teachers with her determination and progress, though they were unaware of her talent in poisons that was being fostered at home. By the time she was ready to take the exam, she was able to create poisons internally, mimicking those she had learned to make with her mother in her herbalist lessons. In the academy exam, she surprised her teammates and sensei by revealing a technique she had developed herself. Her special poison caught the Jounin unawares and the team managed to succeed over their weakened opponent in the set task. She graduated the academy with full support from her teachers. Even now, very little is known about the extent of her talents.

At the age of 14, she was one of the eldest Genin that had just graduated. As such, the administrative men and women who selected teams decided that Yukiko should be included in an already-established team of Genin, ones who were about the same age as she. The team consisted of another female - her sensei - and two male Genin. Whilst she had a hard time integrating herself into her peer group, finding two men far more troublesome company than she had expected, she found a close friend in her sensei, who was both wise and understanding. For the first time, Yuki found herself able to discuss what she was able to do with poisons, something that was still somewhat a mystery to almost all in the village.

With this in mind, her sensei found a select spot amongst the squad and their missions became increasingly more successful. It was Yuki's interest in poisons that really caught her teacher's attention though, and she began to learn more about her generally reserved student. over the course of a number of months, she discovered the Genin's determination to act with complete precision - reflected in her amazingly advanced chakra control. The resulted in Yuki's sensei deciding - without the approval of the village elders - to impart the knowledge of the Juunseidou movements to her pupil.

This peaked a similar interest in Yuki, who found the precise nature of such techniques fascinating. Her sensei also explained that the Juunseidou movements worked in harmony with poisonous abilities, giving her the perfect physical movements to ensure intoxication of a target. However, she did not really get a handle on the intricacies of the Juunseidou until after the Chuunin exams.

The exams were grueling, and Yukiko faced many strong and talented opponents. Reaching the final, she faced a Konoha Genin who was at least as tenacious - if not more so - than Yuki herself. The battle ended in a tie, and the Sunagakure kunoichi was promoted to Chuunin along with a few other Konoha shinobi. With the exams finished, she was finally able to concentrate on her studies, and progressed marvellously in learning th Juunseidou. Two years on, she has honed her skills dramatically and is a force to be reckoned with.

RP Sample: The pestle and mortar lay on the tabletop, their hardened clay surfaces smeared with a mustard-yellow substance. Yukiko used a knife to scrape the substance off and transferred it into a flask. She stood up from her chair and walked over to the other side of the well-lit room. She returned to her seat clutching a vial of water, which she proceeded to pour into the flask with the yellow paste in. There was a hissing sound as the two substances mixed, Yuki giving them a helping hand by stirring with her knife.

The room was, in fact, the back room of her mother's herbal remedy store. Around the room were small pots and baskets containing plants, a desk with numerous vials of different fluids stacked on its surface, and a long table where Yuki was currently sat. Once more, the young girl pushed back her chair and walked over to one of the smaller plants. She titled the flask slowly and poured a couple of drops of the pale yellow liquid onto the soil in which it was buried. A moment later, the plants began to curl and shrivel. When the plant was no more than a tiny, black-green shrivelled shell of its former self, Yuki tapped it with a finger. It crumbled into a fine dust. The girl smiled and held the flask out in front of her, her free hand held about a foot over its top. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Her free hand began to smoulder, faint yellow wisps appearing to flicker around the skin. Yuki exhaled and shook her head. The wisps disappeared. She sighed and put the flask back on the table, looking somewhat disappointed.

Personal Summons

Tanuki = Raccoon-Dog.

Name: Tanuki Pack [Ichiro, Jiro, Saburo, Shiro, Goro, Rokuro, Schichiro, Hachiro].
Physical Description:
Summon Requirements: As with most summons, the Tanuki pack require a small blood donation upon using the Kuchiyose no Jutsu technique to summon them. They will only serve those who have attained a relatively high-rank amongst shinobi, usually Jounin and above. Of course, they 'belong' to Yukiko - who is talented enough for them to acknowledge her - and will serve no other without her requesting so. They can be summoned individually or all at once.
Species: Tanuki.
Rank: C-S [current rank B].
Story: The youngsters of the Tanuki family are often found together in a pack. This is perhaps because of their similar ages, all eight of them born within the space of two years. They were named in numerical order, “Ichiro” being the “first son”, this continuing until “Hachiro”, meaning “eighth son”. Isamu, the father of the family, and his wife Chieko, have cared for them for the best part of seven years. Each member of the pack is now old enough to contribute to the family-owned summon contract. Unlike their parents, however, the eight male youngsters find being amongst the humans rather enjoyable, and tend to fool about when given the chance.
Special Characteristics: Their physical abilties exceed that of the average human of equal rank, making them each slightly stronger, slightly faster, slightly more flexible and with a little more stamina.
Elemental Affinity: Doton [Earth].
Clan: None.

Tanuki Pack Jutsu:

Spoiler:

Complete!

Bumpity bump.

Hm, I recongize several items on here, did by chance did you steal them from yourself?

Souseki no Jutsu: How long do you have the increased power?

Karasu Bunshin no Jutsu: Crows aren't your summon, so I'm pretty sure this isn't allowed, if you change it to raccoon or whatever your summon is, its fine.

What do the poisons do in your style attacks?

I'm not sure if they are here, but are the Eight Gates allowed?

Souseki is edited.

Karasu Bunshin no Jutsu is a canon technique, that has nothing to do with summons. It can be found on leafninja.com, which documents the official jutsu descriptions.

As approved when I was a Genin, the poisons available for use with these are found under "Available Poisons."

The Hachimon [Eight Celestial Gates] were not listed under the official banned techniques, I checked.

Souseki - I'm a bit iffy on 50% for a C rank on increase of speed and strength for 5 posts.

Crow Clone - ok.

Well I never read your style and all I saw was poison, but I just wanted to confirm it!

I know I couldn't find it either...so I guess thats approved.

Overall souseki is the only thing that concerns me.

Removed it. And yes to your earlier question by the way, I did indeed steal these from myself.

Approved.

First of all, Lock when you approve, Aaron. second, hachimon is still unallowed. Sorry if we forgot it, but it's op

Okay, sorry Pat.

Edited.

--> Removed Hachimon and edited history accordingly.
--> Re-added Souseki no Jutsu but increased rank to B to accomodate Travis' original concerns.
--> Added Juunseidou no Jutsu [Perfect Movement Technique] under Taijutsu Techniques.

Name: Tsuuten Kyaku [Bruising Sky Leg]
Rank: C.
Type: Taijutsu.
Element: None.
Description: Tsuuten Kyaku is a Taijutsu technique utilized by the Suna-nin Yukiko. Using her monstrous strength, Yukiko will raise her leg in a high arc, and bring it thundering down causing massive damage to whatever it impacts. If one of her kicks or strikes were to connect, they would kill a normal ninja.

You cannot have unnatural strength, it takes more then just good chakra control to use this technique. You can say your "strong' but not unnaturally so.

Special Characteristics are edited, though Tsuuten Kyaku is described exactly as the canon technique it is. It can be found on leafninja.com, which documents the official jutsu descriptions.

Bumpity bump.

Bumpness. *is eager for Chuunin*

I am happy with bruising sky kick as your special characterisics state that your strength is higher than the normal persons your rank. So i shall now grant you chuunin!

good luck, have fun with your new selection of missions! ^^
