There really is nothing to be said about the personality of a man such as Heihachi. Born from a respectable family, at a respectable time, in a respectable home- the outliers in his life are few and far between. With a father who has been an active shinobi since before his birth, a mother who holds a respectable rank in Kumogakure's medical divisions, and siblings whom have done well for their respective businesses and in their own respective accolades, he was simply one of many. However, his history aside, there have been things that have shaped this young man to become something other than what others have ever perceived him to be.

It would typically stand out to most, that when Heihachi introduces himself, he will do so by his surname, primarily. It is only with the company of his siblings will he introduce himself properly, and even then making sure to state his full name. While not finding any particular pride from his family name, he instead finds a curiosity in how those he introduces himself to react, having obviously not used his given name. This might also be considered a lack of personal identity, having only his family name to identify himself. Whatever the reason, he will typically suggest that people use Heihachi when addressing them, if interacting with him more often than not.

Very focused on his appearance, Heihachi does well to take care of his body. With a few slight alterations, he is an impeccable dresser, and loves to dress up for just about any occasion. Appreciating fine design, it does not stop with his love for clothing, but flourishes into an acute appreciation for art and design. With an older sister being the head of an interior design firm, and his eldest brother who dropped out of the academy to pursue fashion and design, Heihachi is well acquainted with the possibility of art. In fact, it was for that reason that he pursued painting with such a passion. Starting with landscapes, he found something he could easily immerse himself in to. It was only a matter of time before his creative mindset took control and alternative topography became his niche. Spending hours in his studio with nothing more than canvas and ink, he will often spend the majority of his down time painting and constructing new pieces of art. It might have been his artistic side which had driven him to the level of Jounin, in fact.

Taking great pride in his work, Heihachi's favorite thing to do is to spread the reputation of his work- which lead to his discovery of his passion for ninjutsu. Crafting, and sculpting things from the very earth in which he portrays with his ink, he has taken on many aspects of the stone in which he has grown accustomed to constructing. Having an immense fortitude and an incredible ethic, he is rarely broken or falters from the path in which he has created for himself. It is for this reason that he has been so successful at what he does. Combined with the support from his vast amount of relatives and friends, Heihachi's true strength lies in his ability to concrete himself to what he considers justifiable morals. Having jetted to the level of Jounin in only a short period of time, as well as being elevated to ANBU in an even shorter period of time, his personality has proven to have its benefits.

However, for every virtue, there is always a vice. Despite Heihachi's abilities in fortitude, art and combat, he has one very flagrant weakness: emotion. Three of Heihachi's siblings are married- two have children. His parents; married five years before their oldest was born. Love is a common thing within the Ishitsuru household, but it is Heihachi who remains solitary in this regard. Having a deep admiration, loyalty and respect for all of his immediate family, he has never been able to admit his emotions to them. However, it doesn't stop at love. In fact, it is most emotion that Heihachi struggles to understand. Whether it be anger, fear, joy or sadness. It is difficult for him to classify them, and use them constructively. It is this in which he draws another likeness to his techniques. Having a 'stone face' or 'heart of stone,' he can only pretend to relate to those who might feel a certain emotion concerning him.

Having prevented him from any sort of intimate relationship, he has only had a handful of friends, while the rest are considered simply associates. Remaining strictly professional, it is only in the company of his family and trusted fellows does he really show any sort of menial progress. This is not to say that he does not make the occasional joke, or grow frustrated with some of his comrades, but it never really carries further than a small gesture to remind them that he is human. The rest- is something that he is still in the process of discovering, mostly through therapy.

"there is nothing better than gold"

Heihachi could easily be described as handsome. Of course, he is aware of just how fortunate his genes are. With a mother who was actually envied as 'the most beautiful' of her year, and a father who's heroics are only matched by his looks, it was only natural that their offspring would follow in their footsteps. Of course, with a family that is more or less aware of what fashion is, it only follows suit that Heihachi follow in the footsteps of his siblings. Having been considered girly during his adolescence, it was only a few years ago did he actually embrace his masculinity. With broad shoulders and a defined physique, he shows the work that has been put in to his devotion.

Aside from his perfectly tanned body, he wanted a bit of a change. With his family having either the powerful dark hair of their father, or the platinum blonde lox of their mother, Heihachi found himself somewhere in the middle. However, it was through his sister's influence that he decided to dye his hair slightly blonder. It was his eldest brother's idea to get piercings however. A ring for every sibling, and a dotted tattoo for every niece or nephew, he feels that his body, much like his personality, is a piece of art that can only be cultivated through time.

As far as his clothing is concerned, Heihachi is very reserved. Typically fit for battle, as he is constantly on assignment, he will wear a backless black chest plate, and tight black endurance leggings which actually serve as his standard issue sandals. Typically, he will have a mesh t-shirt beneath his chest plate, which offers slightly more protection. However, over this bleak ensemble he will typically wear a bright red, short kimono that appears to almost drape off of his back, defying all physics.

When on assignment, his attire is that of a typical Kumogakure ANBU. An all black, sleeveless, turtleneck jumpsuit, and the various gray armor pieces at his chest, arms and shins. His mask is that of the bird, and his hair is typically the same; occasionally placed into a bun.

Heihachi's goals are not as simple as they may seem. Ask him? He will simply say to protect the Kage and his village. However, Heihachi's real goals come in the form of conquering his faults and finding out what love truly means for him.

As of late, however, love has taken the back burner. Becoming the new Kage, his only goal has to become the village, and make sure that they are protected from invaders. Grasping his tasks by the reigns, he toils with the idea of making Kumogakure just as powerful as it was centuries ago. His way of achieving this- has yet to be determined.

Heihachi's story picks up on his twenty-second birthday. He is joined by members of his family, who wish him warm regards and congratulations on another year lived as a soldier. The majority of Heihachi's story is told in real time, however lead to a vast number of flash backs that reveal his true history. The purpose of this story is to reveal the intricacies of a soldiers life. Is emotion synonymous with combat? Is it just another means to an end?

Heihachi only recently has come to deal with his emotions surrounding the loss of his friend- the man that he was sword to protect. Taking it especially hard, he now holds himself to the same standard for his entire village. Taking the life of each of his villagers very seriously, he has grown even more confused when it comes to sympathy. A trained soldier, he isn't very fortunate to have compassion as a known ability. How can he juggle keeping Kumogakure strong, while ensuring the lives of his troops? This has caused him endless stress, and has caused him to adopt an uncanny demeanor. Very kind to his ninja, he seems to have lost a lot of the 'flare' that made him who he was from behind his mask.

Heihachi has had a fairly scheduled life. Having passed his Genin exam at eight, he became Chuunin two years later. He passed his Jounin exam at fifteen, and only a year after that became a part of the ANBU corps. He has been a devoted member ever since. While some may credit his promotions to his father's influence, he simply reminds them that his father wasn't able to take the exams for him. It was around ten, when Heihachi first learned the Doton element. He has only mastered and perfected it since then. It was also because of his early mastery of Doton that he was able to perfect his abilities as a black ops operative. Being able to hide his body and chakra signature, while keeping track of his enemy, he is easily one of Kumogakure's most prized ninja. It is this ability however which has landed him into the BINGO Book, causing him to be under constant disguise.

Just recently, after the demise of his friend and Kage, Eiichiro, Heihachi was chosen to replace him in a heated debate from council. For that reason, while he is now the Yondaime Raikage, it is not in the best will of the village. While some of the authorities who assist him in governing find him to be the best possible candidate for the position... there are many that wish to undermine him.

This clone has no substance, so it is not able to attack, and thus can only be used to confuse the enemy. It is mainly used in combination with other ninjutsu. These clones can be easily distinguished by opponents with doujutsu, but even opponents with normals eyes can tell tell it apart from the original if they are observant, as the clone does not have a shadow and will not disrupt the area aroun themself with their movement. As soon as this clone comes in contact with an opponent or gets attacked, it will dispurse.

Note: The clone's movement speed is equal to the user's. Bunshin cannot mold chakra to perform jutsu, nor can they physically harm an opponent.

When the clone finally disperses, any new knowledge it has gained is passed back to the original ninja and any additional clones.

Note: This technique is only capable of being learned by Jounin or above. Up to a maximum of five clones can be created. Please note that the user’s chakra is divided evenly among however many clones they create. Upon being destroyed, whatever remaining chakra the clone has is given back to the user.

Considered is a high-speed movement technique - to an observer caught in the optical illusion, it appears as if the user has teleported.

Because of the earth's special characteristics, the wall is highly resistant against, for instance, fire and water.

Note: This wall is fifteen meters tall, ten meters wide, and nearly five meters thick.

Domu is a Ninjutsu technique which utilizes the Earth Element. After performing a single handseal, the user flows chakra through all parts of their body. Their skin becomes noticeably darker as earth is infused with it, granting them a higher defensive power. Furthermore, the destructive power of physical attacks is increased, making this a great all-purpose technique. Not many techniques can breech the areas hardened by Domu, excluding its undeniable weak point: Lightning Element ninjutsu.

Note: Domu cannot be penetrated by techniques that are of equal or lower rank, but will be penetrated by techniques that are of higher ranks. All physical attacks (punches, kicks) will have an increased damage potential because of the hardness of the user's skin.

Tsuchi Kairou is a Ninjutsu technique which utilizes the Earth Element. After forming the necessary handseals, the user slams their hands into the ground, causing the earth to rise up and over the opponent. This creates a cavern, imprisoning the target. The user can choose to leave an opening to allow attacks to go in to strike down the trapped adversary, or close it up completely to prevent escape.

Note: The prison can have a maximum dimension of 5x5x5 meters, and can be broken by attacks of a higher rank from either the inside or outside. Prison remains indefinitely.

Doryuu Taiga is a Ninjutsu technique which utilizes the Earth Element. After forming the needed handseals, the user transforms the ground underneath their opponent into a river of mud. This river materializes suddenly and flows quickly, completely in the opposite direction that the opponent was originally moving. This technique is excellent for slowing people down and facilitating escapes, as the mud itself is highly constricting.

Note: The river flows in a straight line in whichever direction the user chooses; the direction cannot be altered afterward. The river can be no longer than 5 meters and no wider than 3 meters. The mud created by this technique can be used to facilitate other techniques that require mud.

Doton Kekkai - Dorou Doumu is a Ninjutsu technique which utilizes the Earth Element. After performing a set of handseals, the user strikes the ground with their hands. The earth overturns, rising up and around the opponent, trapping them in a dome made of earth with no apparent way out. By placing their hands against the dome, the user is able to suck out the chakra from the people trapped inside and bring it into their own body. At the same time, the user can use their own chakra to spread throughout the dome, repairing any damage their opponents manage to inflict on the inside. However, the chakra flow is not evenly spread out and becomes more weak the further away from the user it moves, allowing the dome to be broken on the far side if hit by a hard enough force.

Note: The dome is 6 meters in diameter. The user drains Mid x2 chakra from each opponent inside the dome per turn, and absorbs a Mid amount of chakra per opponent per turn. By sacrificing a High amount of chakra per turn, the user reinforces the side of the dome closest to them, making it impossible to break from the inside with any technique because of the quick rate of repairs. The side farthest away from the user can be broken through by an attack of S rank. If the user decides not to pay the upkeep at all, then the dome can be broken on any side by an attack of A rank or above. The user must keep their hand on the dome at all times for all these effects.

Doryuu Jouheki is a Ninjutsu technique which utilizes the Earth Element. After performing the necessary handseals, a large earthen rampart will erupt from the ground beneath their feet, pushing them up into the sky. Depending on what the user imagines, the shape of the rampart can be anything from level ground to a steep, needle-like mountain. This technique is useful for increasing the amount of earth one has to work with, aiding or foiling escapes, and drastically altering the terrain.

Note: The shape of the rampart is up the user's imagination, but it can never exceed 10 meters in any dimension. Doesn't harm the opponent in any way, just changes the landscape.

Gansetsukon is a Ninjutsu technique which utilizes the Earth Element. After performing a set of handseals, the user can break up nearby stone and shape it into a maximum of 5 rock spears. These spears can then be launched at the opponent.

Note: Requires a natural rock source. Spears can be no more than a meter long, but travel in a quick, linear path through the air. Flight path cannot be altered after they are launched.

Doryou Dango is a Ninjutsu technique which utilizes the Earth Element. After performing the required handseals, the user strikes the ground with their hands, grabbing onto it. Chakra flows into the earth, and the user is able to overturn a large dumpling-shape chunk the size of a mausoleum. This chunk feels light-weight to the user because of their chakra control; they can hurl it at their opponent, flattening all in its path. The destructive power is obvious, and even just the visual impact is enough to make enemies lose their fighting spirits and run away.

Note: User requires a natural earth source. The dumpling is 10 meters in every dimension and can be thrown to any point within the user's range.

Iwa Yado Kuzushi is a Ninjutsu technique which utilizes the Earth Element. After performing a set of handseals, the user disperses their chakra and destroys the equilibrium holding the cave together. Just removing a single vital stone throws off the balance of the cave, making it unexpectedly fragile and causing a domino effect that destroys the entire cave. The cave crumbles and collapses, killing any who are unfortunate enough to be trapped inside.

Note: This technique requires the user to be next to or within a lodging made of stone, particularly a house or a cave.

Arijigoku no Jutsu is a Ninjutsu technique which utilizes the Earth Element. After performing a string of handseals, the user will disperse their chakra through the ground, creating a large conical pit. When the user wants to activate the technique, a single handseal must be done; then, the pit will begin sucking everything around it toward its center, hoping to catch careless opponents. Should one be sucked underground, depending on how far the user makes them sink, they will be trapped and/or suffocated.

Yomi Numa is a Ninjutsu technique which utilizes the Earth Element. After performing a set of handseals, the user manifests a filthy, bubbling swamp beneath their opponent. The swamp's mud is infused to make it adhesive, making it highly difficult to recover enough strength to escape it. It pulls those trapped inside it down like quicksand, until they've been covered and suffocate to death. As soon as the trapped opponent has been absorbed, however, the swamp immediately disappears - as if it was never there to begin with.

Note: The swamp is 50 meters in length and 50 meters in width, making it ideal to sink entire armies and even large creatures, like Summons. It takes a full turn to sink into the muck.

Chikyuu Kyojin no Jutsu is a Ninjutsu technique which utilizes the Earth Element. After performing a long string of handseals, the user slams their hands against the ground and releases a large amount of their chakra. From beneath the user grows a gigantic humanoid made of rock, which rises with them on its shoulder. The earth quakes for 10 meters all around as this happens, throwing everyone - friend and foe alike - off-balance if they are within range. The giant will take orders from the user, as if it is a sentient being. Because of its size and composition, it is extremely difficult to fell this mighty creature.

Note: The giant cannot form handseals or perform jutsu, but its size is its real advantage in battle. It is 20 meters tall! The user can control its actions completely, or allow it to go wild

Handseals: 2
Chakra Consumption: 2x high
After performing a set of handseals, the user grasps their wrist and focuses chakra into the hand attached to it. The tips of their fingers are encased in ethereal flames the color of their dominant chakra type. If these fingers are pressed against an opponent, even through clothing, the seal will be placed. Gogyou Fuuin causes the target to lose control of any unnatural chakra within their body, becoming unable to tap into it and use it until the seal is removed. Gogyou Fuuin appears on the target's body as five finger-sized swirls that form a circle, because of the positioning of the user's hand.

Note: This technique heavily disrupts a target’s chakra flow, severely limiting their ability to mold chakra and perform jutsu. Those who have become a victim of this technique will be limited solely to c-rank techniques and below, and only able to sustain feats such as walking on water and up unnatural surfaces for a total of five posts before them must “refresh” it (i.e stop, and then start again).

Furthermore, those who possess a bijuu and are affected by this technique will be unable to harness their bijuu’s chakra in any shape or form. This means that the bonus chakra granted by being the bijuu’s host is temporarily gone, reducing the user’s chakra pool to its baseline reserve.

After performing the necessary handseals, the user focuses chakra into their hand. The tips of their fingers are encased in ethereal flames the color of their dominant chakra type. When these fingers are pressed against a seal on the target's body, the chakra melds with the old seal and breaks it, effectively removing it and stopping its effects. While this counter-seal can be used to help someone, it can also be used against seals that may have aided an opponent.

Note: This is the only method of which one can remove Gogyou Fuuin.

After performing the necessary handseals, the user will crouch and place a hand upon the ground. The seal will form around them, illuminate, and send chains of chakra racing toward the target in an attempt ensnare them. Being comprised of chakra, these chains are incredibly difficult to break free from. The only true downside is their length.

Note: The user’s hand must remain touching the ground for the chains to remain in play.

After performing the necessary handseals, the user must focus chakra into their dominant hand and place their palm upon the target. A quick connection is made between the two chakra systems and the seal is activated, removing the target's control over their summoned creature(s) for a short time. The creature, no longer held to the thread by its user, disappears.

Note: The seal only lasts for the remaining duration of the thread in which it was placed. Furthermore, being as how it is very rare for a user to control their summon (outside of Sharingan users), this seal effectively unsummons a traditionally summoned creature. In the case where it is a Sharingan user controlling a beast, this seal works as intended and simply severs the connection between the Sharingan user and the creature in question.

After performing the necessary handseals, the user then places their hand upon their target. A black ‘+’ shape will appear on the opponent’s body where contact was made. Immediately after, short black lines will spread out from the initial mark, covering the victim’s limbs. The opponents body will be frozen in mid-motion as them muscles are forcibly locked into position by the seal’s chakra, leaving them totally paralyzed until the seal wears off.

Gokumen Fuuin is an enslavement type Fuuinjutsu, and is usually given to members of certain secretive shinobi organizations in order to secure confidential information. After being placed, if the wearer of this seal speaks about anything incriminating related to whatever parameters the sealist establishes prior to placing it on the victim, their entire body will be completely paralyzed. It takes the shape of three solid lines with two broken lines beneath, and can be implied anywhere on the body, even during combat, though is most commonly applied to the tongue. Only the person who placed the seal, or a sufficient burst of chakra (such as the gates, a bijuu, or the activation of Susano’o), can end the paralysis once activated.

Note: The 2x High version of this ability allows this paralysis seal to be employed during battle. Meaning, that the victim need not speak or break the parameters; the user can simply activate the seal whenever they wish. This paralysis lasts for a total of one post.

It should be noted that the placing of this seal is permanent, lasting until either forcibly broken or the user’s death.

The user unravels a scroll and writes the needed sealing incantation upon it, leaving a space in the center blank. After performing the needed handseals, vapor appears from the scroll and envelops the element that the user is trying to seal, sucking it inside. The kanji for seal (封) appears in the center, certifying the technique's completion. To activate the scroll at a later time, the user imbibes the scroll with a Low amount of chakra and breaks the seal. The sealed element is then released, perfect for circumventing damage from a dangerous enemy.

Note: It should be noted that the “sealing” portion of this technique takes a considerable amount of time, and thusly is entirely impractical for use in battle. The unsealing, however, is instant and thusly much more commonly seen being used.

Kagura Shingan is an advanced Sensory Ninjutsu technique used by all sensors, and serves as the root to the entire sensory tree. After performing the necessary handseal, the sensor closes their eyes and uses their innate ability to detect chakra in order to determine the location of their opponent by the faintest of chakra trails, as well as discerning the size of an approaching unseen force, and even their chakra capacity.

This sensory technique can also discern whether or not a person is under the effects of a Genjutsu; which elements they have at their command (even advanced releases), and likewise mask their own chakra signature (user’s) from other sensory ninja. The focus required to do the latter (masking their signature) prohibits their other sensing abilities, however.

Note: For a Low increment of chakra, the user can detect all chakra signatures within twenty meters of their person. For a mid worth of chakra, they can sense all chakra signatures within thirty meters; for 2x Mid, they can extend their range up to a maximum of fifty meters.

One of the more advanced and non-combative ANBU techniques, Jigyakkou no Jutsu is a Ninjutsu technique used by the ANBU to pull out forgotten memories. After forming the needed hand seals, the ANBU will put the target into a forced trance. After counting back to the day they wish to learn about, they will ask the target to remember incidents they have since forgotten. This allows the ANBU to gather intel that would other be inaccessible.

Note: The user must maintain constant visual on the target, and stay within a meter of their person in order to facilitate this technique. Likewise, the target cannot be in the middle of moving or so when this technique is employed.

Otherwise, the ANBU will struggle to take over the opponent's chakra with their own. With the person frozen in place, the ninja can either take the opportunity to attack or to retreat.

Note: The user must maintain visual on the target for two posts after this technique has been cast in order for it to take effect. Once paralyzed, the victim will be immobile for a maximum of three posts.

The summation of painting and sculpture, there is truly one medium between them: geometry. Created by an old Sumi sculpture, he found himself longing for the perfect scenery to paint, he soon discovered the practical aspect of the technique. Capable of creating intricate mazes of pure mountainous terrain, it served as a perfect means to escape and essentially 'ditch' ones enemy. It was only by chance that Kumogakure's Sumi sect would inherit the scroll teaching the technique.*

Skilled in the practice of art, a Sumi often decides which branch of art that they wish to pursue the most. As most of them have a passion for all art, they can only truly master a handful. In this instance, if the Sumi wishes to capture their painting ability with a more concrete result, they will refer to this technique. A technique used by Sumi elders to refer to the capabilities of gridded artwork, and geometrical solutions, Promontory Geometry requires much focus in its creativity, and can never truly be learned right off of the bat. After learning the technique, the user must first paint a landscape in the form of a topographical grid map. This can be done at any time, though is typically done outside of battle, as it may take a considerable amount of time given an artist's common wish to perfect their art. While any Sumi can paint the canvas, it takes a Doton master [2 masteries] to be able to bring it to life.

After the painting is drawn, the artist will 'imprint' the canvas with their chakra. While this is typically done in scrolls, other locations have been seen to be effective as well. The size of the canvas (d-s) determines the size of the final product as well. If drawn on an Rank A canvas, the landscape will cover an A rank range. When ready to bring their painting to life, the artist will perform the necessary seals, place their hand over the center of the canvas, and transfer the necessary chakra into the jutsu, and simply allow it to grow!

D Rank Canvas: Low to summon, covers 10m in diameter
C Rank Canvas: Mid to summon, covers 20m in diameter
B Rank Canvas: Mid x2 to summon, covers 30m in diameter
A Rank Canvas: High to summon, covers 40m in diameter
S Rank Canvas: Massive to summon, covers 50m in diameter

Note: It is important that the user mark where they will be, when the jutsu is performed. This is typically marked with their signature, whatever it may be. Once a canvas is 'imprinted' it remains that way forever! The more paintings that want to be done, the more scrolls that will need to purchased. Map will remain in play until the user cancels the tech, dies, or leaves the thread. Painter cannot create dangerous traps within their paintings [cliffs, stalagmites, stalactites etc.], however creativity is encouraged! All paintings must be approved through customs, and will be considered an 'item.'

*Must be a member of the Sumi clan from Kumogakure to learn.
