The EXTERNAL

HEIGHT; 5'9"
WEIGHT; 216 lbs
EYE COLOR; Coal Black
HAIR COLOR; Pale Auburn

Earthen to the core, built in the design of a sturdy combatant, Rokuto idolizes the concept of a Herculean physique, despite his entire composition being compressed sand. Although transformed to represent that of a normal human, those who have touched the body of this male describe it as impeccable and rough, muscularity gracing every inch of his frame, regardless of his affinity for nature manipulation. Spiked, auburn-hued hair is settled upon his dome, unkempt and nonchalant as could be. Sharpened bangs drip across the corner of his face, concealing his round ears, but not hindering his auditory senses in the least. Reminiscent of his bloodline ability and current residence, a pale-caramel colour graces his apparent skin, the tanned hue being another favored attribute of the Sunarashijin. Narrow, coal-black beads for pupils compliments his overall enigma vibe, dagger-like fangs acting as his teeth, the naturally saturated environment of the human mouth being replaced with dry, barren sand. Equivalent to the material that forms his own body, the clothing that is worn sluggishly on his frame is not any different, composed entirely of earthen DNA. A white scarf is worn tightly around his neck, a garment commonly worn by citizens of the Hidden Sand Village to shield their mouth and nose from sudden sandstorms. However, this accessory wasn't created for that purpose, especially since a cloud of dust particles is virtually his habitat, but simply to add a sense of similarity with those that surround him. A loose, navy-blue vest covers his torso, completely sleeveless and always comfortably open. A matching sarong-like guise shields the lower half of his body, gold colour laced onto the edge of the sarong and vest. Contradicting the remaining darkened clothing, rugged sweat-pants basked in the lightest of white hues supplements his lower frame, black straps sealing the leggings just below his kneecaps Lastly, standard navy-blue shinobi sandals are worn on his feet, the wide-ranging lack of security causes most to interpret the sand shinobi as vulnerable, but this is quite the misconception, as his anatomy itself is a deadly ambush waiting for an oblivious victim.

The INTERNAL

ALIGNMENT; Chaotic Neutral
TRAITS; Mischievous - Apathetic - Venturous
LIKES; Treasury - Challenges - Sandstorms
DISLIKES; Extreme Temperatures - Children - Boredom

The mind of a bandit truly compliments his physical abnormality, the barren lands known as his habitat being the foundation for both his composition and those who share similar objectives. Callous and impatient without a second thought, this hard-headed native of the Sand Village relishes intriguing burdens, his soul being inhabited by the rebirth of a single-minded thief increasing this thirst even further. Extremely stubborn and avaricious at times, this shinobi is undoubtedly indebted to his occupation as a soldier of the village, striving to complete any task given to him, even if it bores him to the brink of insanity. This incorruptible bond is a result of traumatic events during his early childhood, dedication to those he deems important being equivalent to a virtue. The cold-hearted male might display zero sympathy for a murdered civilian of the same origin, but his obedience remains to the earthen structures itself, meaning that his will to sacrifice his own life does not stem for living beings, but for the environment itself, causing his devotion to be purely territorial. Despite the dysfunctional mechanics of his psyche, this impassive warrior is rarely provoked, an exuberant smile with devilish intent behind it never leaving his countenance. Unfortunately, a childhood game has grown to become something entirely addictive for this shinobi, his personality apparently suffering from a mild, special form of kleptomania, a syndrome caused by his unfathomable desire for rare items and collections. Although those cursed by this illness find satisfaction in the theft of the most trivial things, this sandslinger is indefinitely not the case, refusing to secure anything but critically important objects in this world. Sporadic, yet normally suppressed, the addiction never truly hinders the male's objectives, preferring to cease a nearby valuable item in the immediate future if too focused to do so at the moment. Nonetheless, disregarding the long list of misfortunes that this shinobi may possess, the strength of his earth conjurer is resolute, and he will stop at nothing to assure his purpose reigns supreme.

SUNAGAMI

[/style][style=color:white; text-shadow: 1px 1px 1px #444444; font-family: constantia; margin-bottom: -8px; text-transform: lowercase]gods of sand | ^{500 EXP}

Sunayama no Jutsu (Essence of Sand Technique) ^{175 EXP}
Rank: D, C, B, A, S
Type: Supplementary / Special Bloodline Technique / Saton Ninjutsu
Range: Self
Chakra: Mid
Special: As Sunagami deplete in Chakra and Stamina, they lose their ability to control their sand transformations, and thus begin reverting to a immobile mound of sand. When first learned, the Sunagami are protected from physical attacks by automatically losing density in the targeted area and thus becoming nothing more than a cloud of floating sand. Floating cloud form can be sustained for up to one turn, plus one more each rank above 'D' is earned before they are forced to revert to their humanoid state. All Sungami are susceptible to Suiton, Katon, Youton and Fuuton - water of ANY rank can severely interfere with the Sunagami's transformation ability, forcing extra chakra drain due to the added weight of the water; wind can quickly break up their essence when they revert to sand, making it impossible to reform; fire techniques of equal rank or higher to the user's 'Essence of Sand' rank can turn the clan member into glass, instantly killing them; the same goes for lava, except since the release is stronger, it takes lava techs one rank less than the user's highest 'Essence of Sand' jutsu in order to produce the same glassy effect.
Description: Though Sunagami take on a humanoid appearance and are in fact born as normal humans, with time their special DNA is awakened through the extensive use of chakra, allowing them to revert to their more natural state - Sand. Though it is incorrect to say Sunagami are made of pure Sand, they are completely human either, and this technique proves it. The center behind all of their techniques, Sunayama no Jutsu allows the Sand Men the ability to properly control their innate ability to turn into sand at will, either to defend from incoming attacks, or do create Special: attacks of their own.
Domain: Sunagami.

Suna Okori (Sand Genesis) ^{175 EXP}
Rank: D, C, B, A, S
Type: Supplementary / Special Bloodline Technique / Saton Ninjutsu
Range: Self
Chakra: Mid
Special: Because Sunagami are made of sand, they can use themselves as a base for all Saton jutsu. Highest rank known determines the rank of Saton the Sunagami can use.
Description: A very basic yet essential technique, this allows the Sunagami to use their bodies as mediums for the birthing of Sand jutsu should they lack the environmental advantage, or some sort of carrying device housing sand. Because they themselves are made of sand, it makes accessing Saton jutsu near instantaneously - just keep in mind not to use too much, or the user will simply weaken themselves!
Domain: Sunagami. Sunayama no Jutsu.

Ryuusa Shunmen no Jutsu (Quicksand Skin Technique) ^{100 EXP}
Rank: D x 4
Type: Supplementary / Special Bloodline Technique / Saton Ninjutsu
Range: Self
Chakra: Low
Special: Strength of absorbed attack depends on the Sunagami's highest 'Essence of Sand' rank. Up to one blow can be absorbed per thread, plus one more each time retrained.
Description: As the Sunagami further their understanding of the control over their sand bodies, their skill in altering their density composition enhances. In this case, rather than simply breaking up into a tuff of floating sand, the Sunagami learns to absorb the blow, increasing their layers of sand compacting the region to be struck as well building up the pressure in said area, so that when struck the weapon or limb is stuck within. To the opponent, it'll feel as if they had buried their weapon/hand in quicksand. By reforming around the impact point, they are able to trick their opponent into coming in for an obvious attack. From this point, they can finish their opponent off, or capture them for later use.
Domain: Sunagami. Sunayama no Jutsu 'D'.

Suna Suberasu (Sand Slide) ^{50 EXP}
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary / Bloodline Technique / Saton Ninjutsu
Range: Self
Chakra: Mid
Special: Doubles user’s maximum movement speed by creating a steady blast of sand under the Sunagami's feet, allowing them to slide efficiently. When sliding over sand, chakra cost for the slide is reduced by one consumption level.
Description: One of the Sunagami’s greatest advantages comes from their very essence, their layers of sandy substance able to instantly provide the user with a limited yet versatile source of Saton. In this case, the user is able to mold chakra on the same path that’s used to keep their appendages in place, allowing an extra amount of chakra to constantly cover their feet. This chakra allows the user to essentially slide or ‘surf’ across the ground at steady speeds for as long as the user’s chakra network can sustain. Because the sand provided comes from the user's own sand body, they can ride on any form of surface inclined or flat, as long as they have the chakra and said areas do not pose threats to the Sunagami's life - i.e. fire, water, etc. A unique amount of sand is always left behind, a trail of dark-brown grains revealing the traveling Sunagami's next destination.
Domain: Sunagami. Sunayama no Jutsu 'C'.

Chakra Consumption Mastery I
One-Handed Seal Mastery V
Efficient Sealing Mastery I

Saton Ryouuken (Sand Dominion) ^{625 EXP}
Rank: D, C, B, A, S
Type: Supplementary / Saton Kekkei Touta
Range: 0 - 50 meters
Special: Allows the user the ability to create, control and move Saton (Sand) chakra of their own for multiple purposes. Amount of sand controlled and density depends on highest rank known.

D: 10 meters
C: 20 meters
B: 30 meters
A: 40 meters
S: 50 meters

Description: The basis behind the majority of Saton techniques lie in the user's ability to control the very sand around them. 'Sand Dominion' is just as its name implies, a fundamental supplementary jutsu of Saton nature that allows the user to intermingle their chakra with that of nature, harmonizing the two in order to create complete control over the sand around them. Once this link is achieved, the door is opened for greater creations to be made.
Domain: Saton.

Suna no Tate (Shield of Sand) ^{175 EXP}
Rank: D, C, B, A, S
Type: Supplementary / Saton Kekkei Touta
Range: 0 - 5 meters
Chakra: See special!
Special: Size and chakra consumption of sand shield is directly proportionate to attack being blocked. Blocks attacks of equal rank learned in a 360 degree radius, as long as the user can see them coming. Shield requires only a single hand-seal to operate. Judge will determine whether fast enough attacks bypass the shield each time it’s used. Highest rank known determines the level of attacks blocked.
Description: Although appearing to be one of the most basic sand jutsu, Suna no Tate is a technique that soon evolves into the user’s most sacred defensive countermeasure. Always active, the shield that protects the user is formed from a large sand presence, and does so under its own will. When needed, the user can also use their own chakra to control the sand so that it can act as a barrier. Because the protection is reliant upon how quickly the user’s sand can respond, it is possible a fast enough ninja can bypass the sand and strike the user.
Domain: Saton. Saton Ryouuken.

Suna Shigure (Sand Shower) ^{100 EXP}
Rank: D x 4
Type: Offensive / Saton Kekkei Touta
Range: See special!
Chakra: Low
Special: Range and size of sand shower on the user's 'Sand Dominion' rank. Vision in general is obscured, and even doujutsu will have a harder time spotting things inside the sand shower due to the user’s chakra coating the flowing body. Sand cloud can remain suspended in the air for up to 1 turn, plus 1 more each time retrained.
Description: Meant more as a distraction technique than an offensive one, the Suna Shigure grants control of nearby sand, allowing the user to levitate numerous small clumps of sand above his opponent. At this point, the sand can remain suspended in the air as long as the user wants, or it can immediately become useful. Showering from above, the curtains of sand make it harder for opponents to see, as well as provide the user with plentiful sand already surrounding the opponent for further use.
Domain: Saton. Saton Ryouuken 'D'.

Suna Bunshin no Jutsu (Sand Clone Technique) ^{400 EXP}
Rank: B x 4
Type: Supplementary / Saton Kekkei Touta
Range: See special!
Chakra: High
Special: Up to one clone can be made at a time, plus one more each time retrained. When struck, the clone's sandy essence forces whatever was used to strike it to stick within, buried into the constricting sand, thus binding. Clone cannot perform any jutsu, but when defeated, it explodes in a burst of explosive sand. Explosion range covers 5 meters all around the clone.
Description: With this technique, the Saton user is able to call upon aid from a perfect copy of themselves. Comprised purely of sand, this clone retains the user movement speed and can share linked mental judgement. Best of all, when defeated, the clone explodes into a blob of sand that aims to take over the nearest opponent available. If found, the sand sticks onto the victim, binds them, and constricts them until escape of deactivated.
Domain: Saton. Saton Ryouuken 'B'.

Sabaku Kyuu (Desert Coffin) ^{300 EXP}
Rank: B x 3
Type: Supplementary / Saton Kekkei Touta
Range: See special!
Chakra: High
Special: Only great feats, such as the Gates, can break free from such a hold; RP judge shall determine success. Up to one opponent within the user's 'Sand Dominion' can be bound, plus one more per use each time retrained.
Description: A strong ninjutsu aimed to paralyze the target, the user forms a string of handseals which will cause sand to rise from the ground and wrap around the legs of their target, restraining them in place with crushing power. The sand will then rise up to fully encase the target, moving at rapid speeds. With such large amounts of special chakra-infused sand immobilizing them, the hold can be used to suffocate an opponent or provide discomfort for the sake of interrogation or other means.
Domain: Saton. Saton Ryouuken 'B'.
