				<strong>Name:</strong> Miya Yamino<br><br><strong>History:</strong><br>The Yamino clan has a distinguished history among the shinobi of the Hidden Leaf, but that history has stalled for several generations.&nbsp; After the untimely death of Hiroshi Yamino on what appeared to be a fairly routine B-rank mission, Hiroshi's wife forbade their children from becoming ninja.&nbsp; Many years later, though, Hiroshi's great-granddaughter Miya had other ideas.<br><br>Although she'd heard only vague stories about her ancestors' achievements, Miya was convinced by age ten that being a kunoichi had to be better than being a carpenter or a housewife.&nbsp; She showed enough promise in taijutsu to be accepted into the academy, and never looked back.<br><br>Now a somewhat more seasoned chunin, Miya seems to be doing well for herself.&nbsp; Although she was quickly judged unfit for infiltration missions, she is a fierce fighter who has earned the respect of her peers.&nbsp; Although she cares about her family, she now lives in her own apartment, feeling that she has little in common with them anymore.<br><br>Since she is the only living ninja in her family, the Hokage has granted her limited access to the village library's records on the Yamino clan, from which she has begun to puzzle out the clan's specialized jutsu.&nbsp; It's slow going without a teacher, and the Kagemetsuki really doesn't suit her style at all, but Miya feels it's her duty to revive her clan's teachings for posterity (even if she doesn't really want to think about the "posterity" part).<br><br><strong>Personality:</strong><br>Miya can be pleasant enough, but she refuses to tolerate disrespect (especially the sexist sort) and becomes irate whenever anyone doubts her ability to measure up to her male peers.&nbsp; She doesn't really want to be "one of the guys," but she can't stand the idea of being treated as though she's less dangerous because she's a girl, and acts as tough as necessary to solve the problem.&nbsp; She finds it much easier to relax around her teammates, to whom she has nothing to prove.&nbsp; Miya is reasonably intelligent, but she isn't really the intellectual type.<br><br><strong>Physical Description:</strong><br>Miya stands about 5'5", with fair skin and deep blue hair, which she wears shoulder-length.&nbsp; Her form is lithe and toned, but she doesn't look half as dangerous as she is.&nbsp; Her eyes are just a shade brighter than her hair, set in a very pretty face.&nbsp; She garbs herself in a dark blue vest (with the black Yamino Clan symbol emblazoned on the back) and a matching skirt, believing that the outfit she's always worn is just as serviceable as the standard chunin flak jacket.&nbsp; Her arms and legs sport shuriken holsters, and her finely-crafted kodachi and various other tools adorn her belt.&nbsp; Unlike many young kunoichi, Miya wears her forehead protector on her head "where it belongs."<br><br><strong>Known Ninjutsu:</strong> Clone Jutsu, Darkness Summoning Jutsu, Substitution Jutsu, Transformation Jutsu<br><br><strong>Known Genjutsu:</strong> Genjutsu Cancel<br><br><strong>Known Taijutsu:</strong> Flying Swallow, various unarmed and sword techniques<br><br><strong>Known Summoning Jutsu:</strong> None<br><br><strong>Known Kekkei Genkai:</strong> The Yamino clan is possessed of a bloodline power they call the Kagemetsuki.&nbsp; All Yamino are capable of seeing perfectly, colors and all, even in pitch darkness -- effectively, the world is always "lit" to their eyes.&nbsp; Unfortunately, this is no use against anything other than an absence of light: smoke, fog, and any other sort of visual obstruction will still block a Yamino's vision, and most ninja are trained in blind-fighting anyway.&nbsp; When a Yamino uses the Kagemetsuki, her irises turn pitch black.<br><br><strong>Miscellaneous:</strong> Though skilled in unarmed combat and throwing weapons, Miya's preferred form of attack is to draw her sword and face down opponents with her (hopefully) superior speed and bladework.&nbsp; Her straightforward combat style hides a surprisingly deep bag of tricks, though -- for one thing, the kodachi she carries is a far lighter blade than she can actually handle, causing many opponents to underestimate her strength and skill.&nbsp; She is also ambidextrous, and can summon a second kodachi from several of the scrolls she carries at her belt (the others only hold kunai); she uses this, along with the Flying Swallow technique (which extends her blades with chakra) to catch opponents off guard when they think their opponent is weak.<br><br>The Yamino clan's Darkness Summoning Jutsu is a fairly basic technique which briefly blots out all light in an area about 10-20 feet across.&nbsp; It is not properly a kekkei genkai -- any ninja <em>could</em> learn it, but it serves no real purpose to someone without the Kagemetsuki, since a smoke bomb would do just as well.

				Name: Odoriko Itamimaru<br><br>History: His family is well known for having unusually dense chakra. It's extremely powerful, but almost impossible to mold- not quite to the same degree as Rock Lee, but enough to make all but the most trivial Jutsu impossible. Many years ago, the family began to study a form of fighting used by the Kaguya Clan, a type of dance. They adopted and changed several of the dances, and developed the Eki Kurogane no Mai. The technique is essentially a series of full body seals, battering the body's chakra into proper form. The technique has been kept secret for a hundred years, and there's no intention of stopping that known. This dense chakra is also unusually powerful, but acts as a double-edged sword, as it tend to be very flashy, and the dances are an extreme strain.<br><br>In addition to acting as a focus for the user's chakra, the dance is an effective kata on it's own, involving wide, sweeping movements, often hidden by entertainer's garbs. The family often travels in disguise, and even after they formed the Eki Kurogane, they were known as masters of stealth. The extreme divergence between the unusually powerful and showy Ninjutsu the clan uses and it's preference for stealthiness keeps it relatively small, and even in the village, it's not well known.<br><br>Itami himself was born and raised in the village, and has always loved it, but his clan, in recent years, has found itself shrinking. Itami is the only scion of the clan that's been born in the last fifteen years, and while this lack of notoriety means that most of his techniques tend to come as a surprise, he was also looked down on for the difficulty he has in most jutsu without the elaborate dances. He passed the Chuunin exam handily in his first year, though one of his teammates was injured. He's a strong advocate of Medical Jutsu.<br><br>He's only been a Chuunin for a short time, but he's a smart man, and cares deeply for his teammates. His track record has been fairly good so far, though he still has a long way to go for any real respect.<br><br>Personality: He's relatively friendly, but a slightly eery figure when in his full entertainer garb. This is made up of a large robe, both arms and legs massively flared to hide all his movements, and a slightly eery mask, similar but distinct to the ANBU mask.<br><br>Physical Description (picture optional): He's roughly six feet tall, somewhat lightly built, and under the odd costume he wears ( and almost never removes) he has a certain dark charm. His hair is a notable fiery red, but often is liberally dusted with charcoal to disguise that fact. The one recognizable facet of his body comes from the piercing grey eyes under the Anbu mask.<br><br>Known Ninjutsu:<br>Katon: Hōenka no Jutsu, Fire Release: Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique<br><br>Katon: Haisekishō Fire Release: Ash Product Burning<br><br>Known Genjutsu:<br>Koubashii Yasuragi no Mai: A specialty technique of Itamimaru, a special Jutsu which involves spreading a very mild fire chakra throughout the radius, increasing feelings of comfort and good humour in all those affected. Not very useful in a combat situation, though it can help to cease hostilities if neither side is truly bloodthirsty, it's greatest use is in negotiation, diplomacy, and stealth. There are some small addictive effects with prolonged experience to the dance, but they are purely mental.<br><br>Known Taijutsu:<br>Katon Itami no Mai: Dance of the Painful Fire, a high speed Taijutsu style which involves letting Chakra temporarily spill over the limbs, dramatically increasing the power of attacks, and often inflicting severe burns on those struck- as if they had been struck by a flaming blade. Often a weapon of last resort, as it can be extremely destructive, and will badly burn the user if used for more than a couple minutes at a time.<br><br>Hitoshirenu Ken no Mai: Dance of the Hidden Blades. A slow, deliberate dance, meant primarily for assassination, as the dance itself requires quite some time to build itself up to a full pace, and the user is relatively defenseless before then. Once at full strength, the user releases their chakra in an almost two dimensional burst, doing grievous damage to their target. This technique requires several minutes to prepare, making it unwise in a combat situation.<br><br>Known Summoning Jutsu: None<br><br>Known Kekkei Genkai: Not necessarily a Kekkei Genkai, but his family is genetically prone towards extremely dense chakra. As a result, their chakra reserves are surprisingly deep, but they are incapable of shaping their chakra for anything more than the most basic tasks- water-walking and tree-climbing, perhaps a Bunshin or Henge in the more skilled or talented members- without a complicated series of full-body seals, as might be seen in the dances.<br><br>Miscellaneous: Chakra Element: Fire. Unable to use anything more basic than Academy level techniques without his dances.<br>(http://)

				Name: Raikou Uchiha<br><br>History: Raikou Uchiha, the despair of Clan Uchiha. As the daughter of two important ninja, high expectations were placed on her. Unfortunately, expectations of wild success were premature. <br><br>Her time at the Academy was disasterous, marked by poor performance and mischief. Despite her natural talent, her shoddy discipline lead to more than one accidental Jutsu explosion. Indeed, it was only through the intervention of her father that she was passed at the end.<br><br>Raikou's time as a genin was similarily poor. She was gradually distanced from family and clan as time went by and mistakes mounted, eventually leading to her being quietly sent to live at the Hidden Leaf village, away from the ancestral clan home.<br><br>Her performance did improve somewhat after her move to the Hidden Leaf village, though she never trained hard enough to truly excel. Indeed, it took her five tries at the Chunin exam before finally passing(very recently, in fact). Mostly due to getting lucky when it came to draw opponents and, she secretly believes, a pity grade. <br><br><br>Personality: Raikou is a bright, bubbly person. She possesses a boundless store of energy and a disposition that, though highly mercurial, is genuinely perky. She's quick witted and intelligent, but tends to act before she thinks. Self discipline is something that has, so far, escaped her to any great degree.<br><br>She has an acute phobia of fire, based on an accident back at the Ninja Academy involving accidentally setting herself on fire. Because of this, she never managed the Uchiha Fire Release techniques, instead developing an idiosyncratic varient using lightning. Under her chipper exterior, she nurses a secret insecurity about her skill as a ninja.<br><br>Physical Description: Raikou is tall and lithe. Her blonde hair sticks out from beneath her pink knit cap wildly, always in disarray. Raikou possesses bright green eyes, fine features, and a crooked smile. Her ninja band rests on her forehead, slightly askew. She wears an pink vest, usually left hanging open, and a short white shirt under it. A heavy belt is cinched around her waist, with the tools of the ninja trade dangle from it, hanging over her loose white shorts.<br><br>Her right arm is obscured by bandages, and her left arm is marked with Item Seal marks. A coiled fighting chain hangs at one hip, ever ready. A Leaf Village Tattoo can be seen on her lower stomach, and she has several ear and eyebrow piercings. <br><br>Known Ninjutsu:<br>Basic Jutsu, Shadow Clone jutsu, Item Sealing Jutsu, Lightning Release: Great Storm Technique(As Fire Release, only with lightning), Manipulating Attack Blades(Varient. Controls fighting chains, or similair items, as well).<br><br>Known Genjutsu:<br>None<br><br>Known Taijutsu:<br>Basic Taijutsu, basic chain techniques<br><br>Known Summoning Jutsu:<br>None<br><br>Known Kekkei Genkai:<br>Sharingan(Incomplete. One tomoe in the left eye, two in the right)<br><br><br>
