DEFINING CHARACTERISTICS
craftsman | eldest Tenzō

[classy=title]personality | history[/classy][classy=info]Born and named as the second son of Tenzō Oni, Jiro fit the bill perfectly. All his life Jiro was content to be second to his elder brother. Unlike his brother, Jiro did not excel at the shinobi arts. This did not upset him as he did not desire power. Instead, he took up the hammer. Fascinated more by the structure and creation of the kunai rather than the act of throwing it, Jiro's desire to craft caused him to drop out of the shinobi academy. With his father having already been killed by Yokai, the lack of a shinobi parent made the transition without drama.

Unlike his elder brother, as Jiro grew older he did not resent Yokai or the Kekkai. He saw the fault in what his own father had done. Seeing no future without uniting the remaining Tenzō with the Kekkai, he became the foremost ambassador for the group. Always mature for his age, he quickly became the voice of reason and peace for the Tenzō. As an old man, his experiences have made him nurturing and patient.

[classy=title]appearance[/classy][classy=info]Visibly aged, the only hair on Jiro's head is his long beard. Gray-white and stretching in a V to his sternum, the beard has been grown over several decades and is always well groomed. Usually wearing formal attire and walking with a cane, Jiro is always sure to be looking his best. His skin is wrinkled and his hands are like leather from his handiwork. Once tall, the years have diminished his height to a measly 5' with a weight to match his height. Jiro seems to be a harmless old man, the lines on his face overlapping with his frequent smiles.

Rank: D | C | B
Type: Profession Accessory / Takumi / Self
Special: Rank of tools determine the type of creation a Craftsman can forge. Must attain each rank sequentially, meaning one has to go from 'D' to 'C' before buying the 'B' ranked materials, and so on. Takes up 5 Accessory Slots without an extension.
Description: Various tools used for the different tasks that involve forging. Numerous, these tools are heavy and cumbersome unless carried properly. Regardless, without them, a craftsman is essentially nothing.

Tool Box
Rank: B
Type: Profession Accessory Extension / Takumi / Self
Special: Consumes one (1) accessory slot, and holds an entire set of tools up to 'A' rank.

Cost: 35,000 Ryo
[/classy]
[classy=title]materials[/classy][classy=info]
Crafting Materials
Rank: B
Type: Profession Accessory / Takumi / Self
Special: Crafting material used for making, repairing, or enhancing something; each piece of material takes up one (1) accesory slot. Each time one of these methods is performed, material of equal rank must be used. Material is good for one creation, repair, or enhancement!

Enchantment Stone
Rank: Bx2
Type: Profession Accessory / Takumi / Self
Special: A special stone which holds a particular chakra enhancement, such as fire or water, or even Genjutsu chakra. Each stone takes up one (1) accessory slot. Stone must be in direct contact with the chakra source for at least half of a turn in order for the enchantment to be inscribed, and the user must maintain the 'Kai' seal during the process. Each stone can only hold up to one enchantment at a time, and upon infusing it into a crafted item or weapon, is permanently consumed. 'B' ranked version absorbs simple chakra, like basic releases and Genjutsu; the 'A' ranked version can absorb Kekkei Touta and even Pain Genjutsu. Used with the Enchanting Mastery Technique.
Description: A small stone no larger than one's fist, it appears as nonunique in the eyes of the inexperienced. This stone is useless on its own, but in the hands of the Craftsman, becomes the essential ingredient towards enchanting their craft. With a simple 'Kai' similar to the trigger of an explosive note, the user can activate the seals within the stone, which make it receptive to any kind of chakra that's in direct contact with it. After exposure, the stone absorbs a portion of the chakra and records it within itself, replicating until the stone itself is filled. At this point, the stone is ready for enchantment.
Cost: 10,000 / 20,000 Ryo
