COGNITION
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

What is the story behind this monster of a man? Having an appearance that would send most children to bed, one can only imagine what circulates through the mind of an ill-bodied behemoth.

[/b][/u]
During his childhood, Kurai was not one of the children that would run through the streets playing tag. His condition has left him with a life of limitation that has confined him to little positive interaction with most people. While far from callous towards them, he is not a quick conservationist. Instead, it takes effort for conversation to flow from the lips of the stolid young man. This however has not prevented him from knowing the benefits of interaction with those around him. Still having grown up with three sisters and a mother, Kurai finds the idea of friendship endearing, but far from necessary. Instead, it is family which is the only thing that has honest worth. Rarely showing a smile to anyone other than his sisters or mother, many people believe him to be completely devoid of emotion. Hardly showing anger or sadness either, perhaps it is the constant exposure to death which has hardened the young man's heart to such an incredible degree. Seeing people more as lavish pursuits than assets, it takes some degree of ability to truly impress the man. However, once impressed, it is still unlikely that you have pierced the man's heart, and instead only revealed yourself as a pawn.

MACHIAVELLIAN
While anger is no where near the circulation of this man's heart, and happiness comes few and far between, Kurai still engages in the carnal reveling in enjoyment. If not having his nose burrowing into the pages of a novel, or poem book, Kurai will gladly play a quick round of human chess. With little exposure to friendship, people have become nothing but chess pieces to the young man. For that reason he has developed an intensive case of mental instability. While not being insane by any means, Kurai is a vehement sociopath case. In the end, it is the benefit of himself and his family that matters before the feelings, harm and future of anyone that he comes across. Quick to eliminate a liability, his condition does not limit him to not being able to see things in a bigger picture. For this reason, conversations with Kurai are rarely dull, and if anything are frightening. Not afraid to ask questions necessary for his control over an individual, he is an avid learner. Wanting to discover a strategy to manipulate those around him.

ERUDITE
An avid learner, Kurai cannot help but spend a majority of his time either reading, writing of philosophizing. Enjoying most of his time alone, he uses it to reflect not only on himself, but the possibilities of advancement that he will inevitably require. For that reason he has become obsessed with knowledge, claiming that it is the real key to power. Instead of knowing what it takes to benefit, he instead believes that if an individual knows everything, then he has already discovered how to make himself benefit, make his allies benefit and how to prevent his enemies from benefiting. While the theory is sound, it often leaves him to over analyze things, and think far too logically. Instead of using his gut, he is instead intent on using his mind to what it takes to prevail. Never afraid to listen, he does not see the need to input his opinion of it is not called for. No doubt due to his need to 'know,' he doesn't like to divulge the information that he is aware of, no doubt due to a fear of his enemy knowing more than himself.

MECHANICAL
With his bandages, Kurai seems to have also shed his humanity. While once being reasonable and often times pacifistic, he has quickly become nothing more than a machine, and treats all of his issues as such. Dealing with things out of pure logic, he no longer faces things with an ounce of compassion or empathy. Facing the troubles of a shinobi, he has quickly become less of an ally to his village, and more of a tool, which seems to have accepted fairly quickly. While this change may no doubt be attributed to the death of his sister, it is a change which causes many Kumo-nin to remain cautious of him, if ever unfortunately teamed up with him.

DISLIKES:[/B]
• Jokes.

• Ignorance.
• Abandonment.
• Shouting.

ALLEGIENCE:[/B] Kurai holds an avid allegiance to his village of Kumogakure no Sato. While his family holds higher priority towards the ninja than the village, he holds no comparison between the members of his family. With a desire to remain loyal to the both of them, his goals would be to keep his family united for as long as he is alive.[/ul][/justify][/blockquote]

ALLIGNMENT:[/B] Pure Neutral ; Chaotic Neutral due to being sociopathic.

QUIRKS:[/B] Kurai has few quirks, however despite being few and far between, they are quite noticeable. The first is that he is often caught using synonyms for his name in his sentences. Often referring to things as either dim, dark or pessimistic it is a trait of many Kumogakure-nin. Secondly, occasionally Kurai will quote poems that are relatable to the situation that he is in.

[KONOHAGAKURE Shinobi]
None.

[KIRIGAKURE Shinobi]
• Hozuki Misami: A fearsome, red headed woman that defeated Kurai in the Tetsu no Kuni Chuunin Examinations. Incredibly relentless, Kurai notes her as being one of the few people that he has actually grown to despise.

[SUNGAKURE Shinobi]
None.

[KUMOGAKURE Shinobi]
• Yamanaka Saori: Kurai's younger sister. While he is a few years older than her, he holds an ardent bond between the two. Considering that she is one of the only people that he cares for, and she counteracts his personality so perfectly, he is willing to do anything to see her happy.
• Hirihi Rinji: A horribly timid young lady who appears to hold purpose as an experienced medic. While she doesn't appear to be too vicious, it is obvious that she is ready to prove herself as a capable kunoichi. She appears to see Kurai as a friend.
• Sakaki: Defined by her miniature height, the girl is clearly incapable of saying much of anything. That does not stop her from being incredibly bubbly. She is unaware of Kurai's incentives, as she has yet to prove her skills or traits, but she shows an adamant allegiance to Kurai, which he appreciates considerably.

None.

[OTOGAKURE Shinobi]
None.

[KUSAGAKURE Shinobi]

ARMAMENTS
[WEAPONRY]
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

[/color][/center]
Having a fighting style that focuses heavily on kugutsu, Kurai's most precious possessions are the weapons which he has produced himself. Having to take the time to construct each little piece by hand, he holds them all very dear to his heart, and for that reason spares no expense to point out their every little detail. You may find those details below, along with the weapons he carries on his person when not utilizing his marionettes.

PRIMARY WEAPON(S):[/b]

Ninjato
Rank: C
Type: Primary / Melee
Description: Short and straight, this blade takes a similar form of a katana, but without the curvature in the blade. With the blade measuring no more than three feet, and a square guard on top, this weapon has been popularized by many ninja, hence the name.
Cost: 1,000 Ryo

Saisho no Ningyō [First Puppet]
Rank: B
Material: Rock
Dimensions: Humanoid; 5'10"; Appearance
Total Slots: 45
Attachments:

• B Rank Smoke Generator: Stomach [6]

• B Rank Saw: Forearm [6]
  
• B Rank Extendable Arm [6]
  
• B Rank Rocket Arm [6]
  
• D Rank Natural Weapon: Teeth [2]

Description: Saisho no Ningyō is a puppet of no original inspiration. Constructed in the image of Kurai's grandmother, it holds properties none other than those which could be found in an average puppet: various hidden weapons, light shield mechanisms and immortality. Standing at 5'10", it is often a bit taller due to it's constant levitation during the kugutsu technique. Considering her humanoid form, she could easily be mistaken for a real woman, save the obvious external joints that most marionettes are created with. Like all of Kurai's puppets, she dawns a short, black kimono, much like his own with a white kitsune mask slightly above the right eye.
Cost: First Puppet - Free.

Kugutsu: Ninjutsu:[/b] 2000 EXP [/size]
The art of Puppetry a unique specialized chakra fighting style, allowing for a once normal form of entertainment to become a mainstream way of violence. Essentially, with the art of puppetry learned, the puppeteer uses threads of chakra to control puppets like marionettes, but with very, very precise movements. Any number of chakra threads can be used to control a puppet, but users with more skill can use fewer strings per puppet to achieve the same results. It is rumored Sunagakure was the first village to come forth with puppetry as a form of combat, but such a claim reamins unprovable in the history books. Regardless...

Puppetry itself is widely known to be a long range style, meaning that the puppeteers are weak against close range fighters. Since most puppeteer use their hands to manipulate the puppets, if their hands are disabled, then the technique can be neutralized. However, they make up for this by the keen control of many puppets of all shapes and sizes, providing hard carapaces littered with hidden weapons.Though unconventional, puppeteers have become just as lethal, if nor more, than their shinobi counterparts.

General: Ninjutsu:[/b] 150 EXP [/size]
Jutsu, or skills/techniques, are the mystical arts a ninja will utilize in battle. In order to create and use a jutsu, the ninja will need to use and control their chakra. Chakra comes from two places within - the body energy inherent in your trillions of cells, and the mental & spiritual energy gained from exercise and experience. In order to perform a jutsu, the ninja will bring out and release these two energies by forming handseals. Because of the extensive number of hand seals and different combinations, there are thousands of potential jutsu to be discovered.
