Character's Physical Description: Carrying a youthful apparence but non of the size or build of the Toraono, Michino is something of a runt. Non of the clan's normal markings ever showed up on him as a child and he's often resorted to taking white face paint and making two tiger stripes high on the sides of his face. While his eyes are a brilliant off white blue color the irises remain normal as the next man's. He stands at five feet and four inches even at sixteen making Michi doubt the assurances that he'll get taller as the years wane. The only hallmark physical feature of the Toraono clan that really shows is the sun-kissed skin he shares with his family. Lately he has taken to dying his shaggy dark hair white for little reason other than he got curious one day.
Character's Mental Description: Michino has two sides to his ego. The first is the most known of the two and how most people view he actually is. Among his family and fellow shinobi most will agree that the small Toraono is mild-mannered and easy going if not a bit lazy. For the most part he acts unmotivated and even a little panicky during heavy missions; basically the average Joe. Like most Toraono he does carry a stubborn streak when it comes to his job but other than that he seems almost lackadaisical.
Then there is his other side.
During a heavy mission that was supposed to be easy a part of his mind that had build up all the negativity he kept collecting from his continuing failures had finally built up too much. The following mental breakdown triggered something that could only be classified as a "primal" side. Perhaps it lays dormant in all members who call those who carry the blood of the demon beast, but, Michino's fellow Genin watched as he stood his ground and shattered the mind of a Jounin level rogue. This side of his ego is cold and uncaring of anything that stands in the way of destroying whatever triggered it. While it is a part of his own physical mind the ego is drenched in the dark energy laying quietly inside of his blood. Michino is able to sort of speak to it and work out things as if speaking to another person though he can only do this out loud. He tries not to do this in front of others and only while working. It does have a tendency to slip through and even take over completely if he becomes completely unfocused in any fashion.
Character History: Michino was born prematurely and malnourished. Even in the Toraono clan marriages and relationships get messy. Often they are delt with swiftly when discovered and rarely in anything but a nurturing manor. However Michino's mother was of one who wasn't even aware she was pregnant.
His father still a mystery the boy came into the world suddenly one night as she attempted to cook through pains she mistaken for menstrual cramps. Once the true pain of birth wracked through her body she immediatly dropped to the ground and tried to scream though no sound would come. For a few moments the poor girl thought she was under attack until she focused on where the pain was. For the next three hours she fumbled through both child birth and calling her clan mates to assist her; the latter of which were too late. Laying cold and screaming on the ground, held in the dead clutches of his mother, Michino was given his first taste of the world.
While the tragedy of his mother's death hung on minds of her immediate family for weeks to come the entire clan took it upon them to raise the young woman's child. The first three months were rough and unsure as he teetered on the verge of death from malnutrition but with the careful touch of the clan's best he pulled through. From there he rolled headfirst into his childhood as he showed all the signs of a healthy Toraono up until the training began. Since his mother was of the Toraono side most of his training was focused on whatever he excelled in but since the entire clan called him "son" Michi was pushed to dabble in a little more of everything than most of his kin. For almost any child of the clan this was a guaranteed path to bring honor to the family and for a genius talent being able to train into so many different disciplines would make them invincible by the time they hit the Academy; poor Michino was neither of these things.
He showed some ability with handling illusions, particularly ones that allowed for self manipulation to allow for temporary strength. However his talent for chakra control and physical prowess were non existant for years. It wasn't until after entering the Academy did he finally build up some stamina through sheer determination to train and be better. Yet like a realistic show about life no matter how hard the little Toraono pushed the world seemed bent on pushing back even harder. His grades were mediocre, his talent in taijutsu lied only in knowing the technique but hardly had the strength to follow through and his "gift" for illusions got little better than it did when he was first training.
Michino failed the Final Exam four times before finally scraping by. He only finally achieved the Genin rank when he turned fifteen. Some of his original class mates where already Chuunin and a lot of the students he repeated years with had gone on to be successful Genin or at least find talent in a job that allows them to bring honor to their name. So much failure slowly began to build up on his generally optimistic mentality. After half a year of doing really nothing as his new role of shinobi the boy had considered just giving up until the clan legend Kuro came to speak with him. He had heard of the boy and kept a close eye on Michi as he would any of the weaker members but the demon beast king saw something special inside, because of how much he had to fight for what he had. After an amazing pep talk about how much stronger he'll be than everyone else if he just keeps pushing was all he really needed to hear; coming from such a figure it was hard to ignore.
The last half of his first year as Genin picked up for a while until one Winter shortly after the village had resurfaced. A mission to make a deliverly of flowers to the port was given to him and two other fellow level shinobi. It was simple and meant to be a mission to help the three boys grow; and it would have been too. All the way up until they were leaving the port did things run smooth. Payment for the mission had been immediate and, after splitting the earnings, the three guys decided to take a chance and see some new stuff. Michino did this by buying some new clothes that looked durable enough to handle his lifestyle. The other two decided to sneak into a bar and see how far they could take shenanigans. While things had seemed to go all well and good, they even stayed a few nights, on the way out of town and back onto the road they were ambushed. A shinobi rogue of their village had seen the two boys in the bar and after a few days of festering his mad mentality the man decided to kill them in a twisted revenge scheme that only made sense to, of course, himself.
The attack went off as an expert would have pulled it. Even unaware of the danger, Genin were still a class of shinobi, and the three put up a fight that lasted all of about twenty seconds. One had become gravely injured via a tear in the stomach from powerful taijutsu and the other, whom had been the "powerhouse" of the group laid broken and near dead somewhere off in the dunes close to the road. Michino was in no better shape as the killer had decided to take his time with the last one; a mistake he never got the chance to repeat. Each blow the teenager faced brought something closer and closer to the surface of his mind even as his vision turned black. All he could think of was the failure after failure that was leading up to a death he couldn't even believed was happening. The mental strain of both pain and regret caused a piece of his ego to snap off and steep itself in the power he always dreamed of having.
The boy with the ripped stomach described the next few moments as "abnormal", the way Michi suddenly caught the rogue's attack with a single hand. There was a heavy push of sand and chakra stemming from his friend for about a single second before the man crumpled in a pile of broke. The day was nearing noon when all of this happed but the witness remembered everything being ice cold before he blacked out from the pain.
Neither of the three teenagers know how they got back. Guards posted at the gate claim they never saw the trio walk up only that they "appeared suddenly" in a collapsed heap of broken kids. Michino recovered the slowest of the three as whatever he had done caused a terrible strain on his body. For a week he was unable to even walk. During the downtime between physical therpy he requested to suddenly start studying the history of his family. A brief investigation was launched into how a Genin was able to take down a high risk target with such ease only after his comrades were in critical condition but found, at the very least, no foul play on Michino's part. It never was discovered what happened that day but from then on the teenager took at least one part of his life more seriously; finding balance. While he has no memories of actually being able to use the power, he did "watch" himself use it and has sence never doubted the idea that something else inside of his blood may not actually be part of the Toraono clan.
In the following year once he regained use of his legs the teenager began to show some improvement in his talent all around. While he tends to work solo for most of his work. He has allowed a few to accompany him on missions that Michino feel may take a turn; and they usually do with unnerving accuracy. Those who come with him on those always come back unharmed but tend to put a little distance between themselves and Michi from that point on. When confronted with why by others who know him they always say the same thing,
"I don't really know why, but, he's actually really scary. Sometimes his face just changes and you're not really sure if your still talking to the same guy."
Secretly the Toraono has managed to slowly begin talks with his other side. The teenager has managed to keep this secret under tight wraps as most of the adults hearing about his mission debriefings from teammates wave off this "other side" as a trademark of being a good shinobi. He has even been given offers to join ANBU through subtle suggestion but they have all been refused. Until he is sure on how to bring both of his egos into one self and freely draw on the power laying dormant inside of him he continues to act aloof. Careful to make sure no one takes to suspicion on him he does this in very small increments through study and training that requires him to sequester away from everyone to ensure his other side isn't homicidal.

Death/Retirement Thread: No retirement thread, just coming back from a long break. I assure you all Tama would have been doing is trying to figure out what it is he wants to do. Since I'm making a new character, obviously he has not done this task yet. I would like to make him an iNPC though if possible.
