Name: Igarashi Susumu
IC Rank: Academy Student
Age:11
Gender: Male
Physical Description:
Susumu waited patiently in the massive crowd of children awaiting their chance to be enrolled in the Shinobi Academy. Having been able to enroll for a couple of years now, he’s eagerly trying to hear everything that the Jounin before the crowd has to say. His head pokes out just a few centimeters above the rest, he being slightly above the average size and age of children to join up as a Genin. His mother had begged him to wait one more year, just as she had last year. He could not allow her to spend all of the yen she’s ever earned in an effort to bulk him up before sending him off towards what she’d expect to be one of the hardest challenges of his life. He wasn’t worried, even giving himself a reassuring nod as the crowd funneled through the front doors of the academy. One group splits to the left, another to the right, Susumu follows that group. They’re lined up before a few odd-looking machines, ones that he’s seen once before in a doctor’s office, though he’s never gotten the chance to actually use one. “NEXT!” A chuunin calls out, clipboard in hand, “IGARASHI SUSUMU.” Being called, he steps onto the platform as the boy before him had, a ticked pole being compared to the top of his head, as a digitized screen displays his weight. The chuunin nods and gestures Susumu to continue, recording in the provided boxes the new student’s height and weight:
[IGARASHI, SUSUMU]-- [HT:|150.2cm] [WT.|40.2kg]
Personality:
Most of Susumu’s intentions are good ones, he’s always worried about his mother and never about himself. He’s very protective over those that he trusts, or those that trust him. Being a child, Susumu doesn’t focus on his mental health, not knowing the difference between a traumatic memory or just a memory in general. He doesn’t seek knowledge from others that he himself can find within the library or through training. He’s intelligent and has a good sense of responsibility, though acting this way as a child is not always easy, leaving him to mischief and general tomfoolery. Susumu had to bear the burden of being his own father, the man supposed to fill that role too busy of a shinobi to have time to be a husband, let alone a father. He has been the man to cherish his own mother, and keep her safe when needed, being the man of the house since he was old enough to walk. Regardless, even seeing the man that is half responsible for his birth inspires him to become greater, stronger, and further attuned with the swordsmen that dot his bloodline.
History:
The Village Hidden in the Clouds is a well-known gem of the world, many travelers and shinobi alike visit the village in order to bask in its awe, those raised there appreciating its value and beauty for what it's worth, meaning those living outside of the slums of course. Those left to wallow around the slums of the Cronopolis are not the first thing that tourists see, not placing the epic historical site on their itineraries in an effort to avoid the people living in the streets around it. Susumu wasn’t as lucky. He grew up in the cheapest, muckiest homes that the Kumogakure had to offer, his mother having had to fill out a week's worth of paperwork, just to prove that her and her son had previously lived in an abandoned home with three other families. Susumu simply followed his mother where she went, snarling at grown men that had a word or two to say, or silently trailing her through the violence and poverty ridden street that they called home. As far as he knew, he never had a single conversation with his father, and his mother often cracks out that his father barely knew her name before asking her to marry him.
Regardless of Susumu’s social standing or anything pertaining to financial status, he still grew up as a happy child, he and his mother often told stories, sung, or read aloud to one another to pass the time of endless nights. Becoming a shinobi wasn’t something that Susumu had dreamed of, it was more something that could one day help him to buy his mother a home, or dinner during a week that her wages were in waiting. His father also played a part in this desire, his life too busy for a family, though somehow not for the shinobi way. Optimistically, Susumu believes that he can balance the two, loving those around him while also successfully living the life of a great, well renowned shinobi.

Bloodline: Nanjirou
Ancestral Weapon - Passive
The Nanjirou believe that the best ending to their life is to be as they lived; paired with a blade. Their remains are used in the forging and reforging of blades both new and old, quite literally infusing a part of them into their swords. It is for this reason that their are a myriad of unique weapons in the clan, each with their own history and displaying traits of those who came before. Many blades have a spirit within of one of their ancestors that serves as a guide to the Nanjirou as they live their life and grow in power.
Rank 1: Upon gaining this bloodline the user must designate a single Slashing or Piercing weapon as their Ancestral Weapon. Attacks made with this weapon gain one of the following alignments and the associated effect;
Note:
- The user may only have a single Ancestral Weapon.
- The flavor regarding having an ancestral spirit within the weapon is still subject to the ghost NPC rules.
- The Ancestral Weapon must be stated in their Dojo thread. It and its alignment may be changed by remaking the chosen weapon.
---
Bushido - Passive
Fitting for a clan of samurai, the Nanjirou are ingrained with a code of honor and pride before they even learn to speak. Due to carrying within them the blood and spirit of their lineage, the failure of oneself is seen as the failure of one's ancestry; to be the cause of such shame is not an option to them. The more a Nanjirou is pressured, the more of their Ancestry awakens.
Rank 1: The user gains +0.5 to all Secondary stats each time they lose 30% of their Max Hp, capping at +1.5 Secondaries.
Note(s):
- If the user has Hidden Power granted for free by a source which is not Bushido then the user is counted as having filled one of their ability slots with it even though the ability is not currently taking up an ability slot.
---
Wrath Seal - Activated Passive
The core of what separates a swordsman and a Nanjirou is their ties to their clan; the Nanjirou have the unique ability to invoke visions, emotions, and perhaps most importantly, techniques, of their predecessors. A misnomer, the Wrath Seal is a trance they enter that allows even a young Nanjirou to display advanced swordsmanship by channeling the power of an ancient grandmaster. This is no free power though; the trance is exhausting, and difficult to maintain during battle for an extended time.
Rank 1: Grants the user 1 Focus point upon activation and each round active. They may perform the Dancing Blade, Energy Slash and Vantage options.
One Focus point may be spent to add one of the following effects to a Slashing or Piercing attack;
Cost: 1 Ap to activate. 4% Max Cp/Rnd active
Notes:
- Unused Focus Points carry over to the next round, but cap out at a maximum of 5.
- Focus points modify an entire action, not just an individual hit.
- An attack may only be modified by a single Focus point (with the exception of a Spiritual Ancestral Weapon.)

- Spiritual Twice per round, the user may perform two Wrath Seal actions to the same attack with this weapon. Both require a focus point.
- Holy The weapon protects the user against the first 175/275/400/550/675 damage that hits the wielder each round, increasing with the user's out of character rank D/C/B/A/S.
- Cursed Each round the user's Ancestral Weapon siphons 1% of their maximum health into a special Bloodlust Pool. Whenever the user performs a Taijutsu with their Ancestral Weapon, for free, they may choose to spend Bloodlust as well which increases the base damage of their attack by an equal amount to a maximum of +500 Base Damage.
- The Bloodlust Pool has no maximum cap and cannot be affected in any form other than spending or adding Bloodlust.
Note:
- The user may only have a single Ancestral Weapon.
- The flavor regarding having an ancestral spirit within the weapon is still subject to the ghost NPC rules.
