Techniques: [Kugutsu no Jutsu][ (Puppet Skill) ][C-Rank, Ninjutsu, Supplementary], Description: Uses a doll as a weapon for combat. The doll is controlled by thin, almost invisible strings that chakra flows down. The chakra brings the doll 'to life', and can be used to switch places with the user, attack, or hide itself as another person.

[Biransei no Jutsu][ (Poison Gas Technique) ][C-Rank, Ninjutsu, Damage], Description: This Ninjutsu technique creates a cloud of poisonous gas that erupts from the ninja's mouth in a stream. The cloud clears a distance between the ninja and their enemy, as not to capture the ninja himself within it's area of effect. Any enemy caught within its area of effect will succumb to the poison's effects.

[Suna-Shunshin no Jutsu ][ (Sand Body Flicker Technique) ][C-Rank, Ninjutsu, Specail], Description: A high-speed movement technique. It is described as 'appearing with the wind and disappearing like the wind.' A very basic jutsu, it appears that most shinobi above Genin-rank know it. Using chakra to activate the body, the user is able to move from one point to another with extreme speeds. This super-fast movement is almost impossible to see with the naked eye. To a normal person, it would seem as if the user has teleported. The amount of Chakra used depends on the distance and elevation between the user and the destination.

[Kawarimi no Jutsu ][ (Body Replacement Technique) ][D-Rank, Ninjutsu, Supplemental], Description: This is a technique that usually confuses the attacker. The user quickly projects themselves with another nearby object such as a plant (normally a section of a log), an animal, or even another person within reach, leaving the opponent open to a counter-attack.In the anime, a straw man bundle, a boulder, mud, and even a scarecrow has been used as a Body Substitute Jutsu, though this may not be considered canon by few fans.

[Henge no Jutsu][ (Transformation Technique) ][E-Rank, Genjutsu, Supplemental], Description: The user utilizes the sheep hand seal or the tiger hand seal and concentrates their chakra to assume the appearance of another person, an animal, or even any object. This is one of the required basic jutsu taught at the Ninja Academy. Fundamentally, all ninja know this technique.

Trademark Techniques(s): [Enkin Kugutsu no Jutsu][ ( Distance Puppet Skill) ][B-Rank, Ninjutsu, Supplementary], Description: This technique is a variation of the standard puppet skill technique. Only it allows Ibara to control his puppet from much farther away. Ibara uses a system of comm equipment and cameras to see and hear what his puppet would even if he is well out of range it. This can only be used with one puppet at a time.

Puppet weapons, items and descriptions.

Chyukai-Do
Advanced Puppet: Humanoid type, about 5 feet tall. The main body is made up of wooden rings that are stacked on top of one another. In the middle of the body, the seconding from the top, are a small pair of skinny arms with detailed hands collapsed in the chest. On the back of each ring are two small metal 180 degree hooks that are used for storage and hanging purposes. The head is a cylinder shape, that has red round eyes with blue triangles inside them. The mouth looks carved on, in a simple smile. This is the mouth and when open the "tongue" is a short nozzle used for various attacks. Larger arms on the side are for combat. Both use blades, but the right has a senbun launcher. It would be activated by the right arm and elbow bending up towards he head. Then from the back, now facing the target, of the arm half of it would drop down to be parallel to the ground, and the senbuns would be shot out from here. The legs have thicker thighs then would be needed. They hold things like kaltrops, smoke bombs a pair of chains that can fire out and bind the target. Heels have small upwardly curved blades. These types of weapons are hidden throughout the rest of the body as well.
[Senbun], [Razor blades (small exotic)], [Chains (large exotic)]

Makiryu-Do.
Advanced Puppet (Puppet Scroll A). Centipede puppet. When fully extended the the body is 12 feet long. The antenna on the head add an extra two and a half feet. For a total of 14.5 feet long, a little over a foot width. Being a centipede its body is segmented and has a single pair of legs, one on each side of a segment, 20 segments in all. The legs are circular shaped, with tips where the flat end should be. Sharp on both sides, but the tips that go into the ground are not. The head is slightly larger then the other segments, and it opens wider at the mouth. The eyes are two oval shaped protrusions. It looks much like any bugs eyes. The mouth is made up of pincers that are triple recurved blades. Antennas on the head are only slightly sharp, serrated blades that inflict minor damage. The real danger of this puppet is the poison it carries. On the underside of each segment is a compartment with double flap openings. Around the head of the puppet are segments with poison gas balls. Each segment holds one. Middle segments contain kaltops, and segments at the end hold spikes that come out and can be used to swipe at enemies. These are also poisonous. Unique to this puppet is the fact it can roll itself up into a ball and attack the enemy. The poison it carries is a nerotoxin that inhibits movement and will cause temporary paralysis.
[ Pincers (small exotic)], [Antenna (large exotic)], [ Kaltrops ]

Zerutsu-Do
Advanced Puppet (Puppet Scroll B). This puppet is the oddest looking of the three. It has no legs, it simply hovers a about 2 feet of the ground. It has a huge tree trunk build, wide and thick. The higher the puppet, the thicker it is. The top is a smooth curved hump that out reaches to protrusions slightly. Still in a vary smooth curve. Coming from out the body, under these "shoulders", are cylinder that extend half way down the body. These are three feet long, and get slightly more narrow as they go down, but never to a point. These "arms" have no visible fingers. Under the the hump, is the puppets head. It is gray, hollow and keeping with the build, thick and smooth. It has large black depressions for eyes, with no pupils. As for a mouth, it is large and looks to be just just placed on the body, as the head altogether, as if a mask. The body is black except for a small portion along the body runs a two sets of parallel white lines starting from the bottom of the puppet and join at a hole directly under the head. In between these lines are an opaque shield coating of material. Behind that are what seem to be orbs of some kind. This puppet is one of the strongest and for good reason. Its heavily armored, and armed. The hole under the head is the cannon opening. and the orbs are balls containing different weapons. Once fired they will break open to release the projectile weapons inside. Some are simply balls that have spikes inside, these come out when fired, and others balls explode. The arms are senbun launchers. The "palm" of the left hand can split vertically down the middle and out comes a revolver like weapon. Each senbun fires from a barrel when it comes to the top. The right "palm" splits like the left, but instead or a gatling firing mechanism it has a pentagon shaped barrel. This weapon can fire five senbuns at a time. The hump on the back can lift up and a large fold able shuriken comes out. After spinning rapidly this will fire at the enemy. Secret weaopns are located throughout the body of the puppet. Its sides will open up and fire, then go back inside.
[Senbun], [ Various ball projectiles (small thrown weapons)], [Fuuma Shuriken]

Shousa-Do.
Advanced Puppet (Puppet Scroll C). Humanoid type. At first glance this puppet can be mistaken for a woman very easily. Everything about it is human. Though it is not a living puppet. Standing taller then Chyukai-Do, the head is bountiful with short, almost purple, hair that goes down just to the neck. An attractive face is molded on the head not unlike a mannequin's face. Blue eyes that stay fixed ahead, and lump lips seem out of place on a ninja puppet. Yet not on her. The build of this "woman" is a fit one, yet still feminine. On the body are clothes, real clothes. A body suit, dark gray, but not entirely black. A single elongated red diamond is the design on the fabric at the forearms, thighs, and shins. A tactical jacket, left open is the other half to her dress. Along with boots and finger cut gloves. The lethal parts of this puppet are trench spikes, brass knuckles with blades at the end, on the right hand, with a set on her side. A senbun launcher from the left forearm, the bottom opens up ripping the fabric, and a barrel pops out. From the left knee is a type of missile launcher. It opens up and a canister, with a rounded tip, wrapped in an exploding note fires. Much like any ninja a set of smoke pellets rests back and to the left of her hip.
[Senbun], [Trench spikes(small exotic)], [Exploding seal], [Smoke pellets]

Character Description: Whether he likes it or is just convenient Ibara wears his Sand jounin uniform. A desert yellow vest with various pockets for scrolls and tools left open revealing a white shirt. His shoulders are covered by the shirt, and somewhat by the vest being as it is slightly too big, but his biceps remain uncovered. Desert camo arm warmers cover his forearms, with tan elastic bands keeping them in place. His pants are a dim yellow and fit his better then the jounin top. The sandals are the same color as well. His belt holster has an extension on it to wrap around his waist twice, leaving two straps on his body instead of one, the extra one stays outside the belt loop of the pants. The one distinguishing feature of Ibara is the cloak he wears. The color is of course desert shaded and it stops just past the middle of his thighs. It has extra fabric at the top for a hood if need and is tied around his shoulders with his sand headband, right in the middle of his collar bones, holding the two pieces in place. As for his face, it remains very hidden. He tries at least. A twisted piece of cloth goes across his nose and hangs down covering his mouth and face effectively. His eyes are brown and strands of his bleach hair string out from under the bandanna he wears. on top of his forehead are a pair of goggles used to keep the sand out. So much sand....

Techniques:


Japanese name: Jouro Senban
English name: Raining Needles
Type: Offensive
A barrage of needles that are sent flying at the opponent from a hidden place inside an umbrella. The needles are then controlled using Chakra and directed at the enemy
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Japanese name: Kakuremi no Jutsu
English name: Hidden Camouflage Technique
Type: Supplementary, E-Class
This is a basic skill that can be learned in the Ninja Academy. Rather than using conventional methods to hide yourself the ninja quickly uses Chakra to blend in with their surroundings. This camoflage only works as long as the ninja stands perfectly still but it does not mean that they still can not be detected by a keen-sighted shinobi.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Japanese name: Bunshin no Jutsu
English name: Clone Technique
Type: E-rank, Supplementary
Users: All Ninja Academy Graduates
This is a basic technique taught to ninja at an academy. In certain years, Ninja are required to know this jutsu in order to advance to the Genin level. Bunshin no Jutsu creates one or more clones of the user, which can be used as a means to create a diversion, distraction, or cause confusion. Unlike Kage Bunshin no Jutsu (Art of the Shadow Doppelganger), these illusory clones will simply disappear if come into contact, thus, they are substanceless, and cannot do anything to damage the opponent.

Character Description:
Genji is a spunky little guy. Born to a family of parasol makers he found no joy in their craft. It's not that he had no skill in it, he just found it boring. Although he is rarely seen to be sitting still (and indeed fidgets almost constantly) Genji is an avid reader. Born with the odd combination of a fantastic memory and a short attention span he has become an adept speed reader and can finish off the likes of War and Peace in a single sitting of a little over an hour. He often giggles to himself over his own wit and, due to his unkempt appearance, often comes off as an inexplicably upbeat eccentric.
Realizing that parasol manufactury was most-likely not a profession in which Genji would excel, he was enrolled at the Hidden Sand ninja academy. Being slight of figure and swift of mind Genji quickly learned that because he could not often match his opponents in head to head combat, he turned his sights towards methods of trickery and misdirection; often choosing to blend into his surroundings and assault his enemy unseen rather then engage in melee.

Appearance: (image pending) Genji is willowy, shot and has extremely light blonde hair that vaguely resembles a broom. His hair is kept in some semblance of order by his forehead protector, but this is of little use. His shirt is long sleeved and billowy to provide cool airflow in the hot climate of the Hidden Sand, however it's canvasy material makes it appear something akin to a straight-jacket. He wears patched parachute pants tied down past his knees with bandgaes to keep out the sand and on his feet he wears standard ninja sandals. Accessory wise he sports a pair of tinted goggles to fend off the sand and a desert-camo scarf around his neck. When unfolded it is about the same size as a small blanket. He also carries water in a camel pack under his shirt and on his back.
As far as weaponry goes he wears the standard holster on his right thigh and has senbon strapped to his wrists. For melee (and the use of the Jouro Senban technique) he carries a large bamboo parasol with him over his shoulder. In times of need this can also be used to make an improntu desert shelter. (imagine a foxhole)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Genji danced up to the location described by the note he'd recieved with the kitten. Quite literally danced. A shuffle here, a hop there, leaping to and fro to a rhythm generated entirely by his porrly beat-boxing lips. Nuzzled to the inside of his neck looking mildly confused, but not put too far out of place, was a small-ish tortoise-shell kitten sporting a small dog collar. A dog-tag dangled from it with the name "Gregory" engraved in it.
From time to time the teen reached into the depths of his shirt to reveal a batter shrimp that he would pass to the kitten.
Skidding to a stop he squatted down against a stalagmite and began to drum his fingers against it while tapping his foot. "Well, Gregory, now we get to find out what all this is about!" He grinned, "Do you think everybody else got a kitty? That'd be so cool! We'd...neko-nins or something! We could.... I wanna read something." So saying he then flipped a leather-bound volume out of his sleeve and into his hand and began to read while waiting for the arrival of persons unknown.

Appearing in the center of the open area of the training ground a shadowing figure wrapped in sand came in a tornado of wind. when the wind dies down, a pillar of sand was left. With a shake of his head and upper body, the sand all over him fell to the ground and he stood there, his feet still encased with the yellow grains. "I'm Kazan Ibara. You can call me sensei, teacher, master, Ibara, Mr. Ibara, Mr. Kazan. If you don't like any of these names then ask me first and I'll tell you if its ok for you to call me that. Now show me your mission scrolls and make your reports on your kittens." Ibara stood there, his body moving little, and his tone not fluctuating one bit.

((Do you want me to post my character sheet here or will you be editing that into the second post?))

" Hi there Mr.Kazan! My scroll is right-" here Genji took a moment to search through every pocket on his outfit for the scoll before finding in his sleeve, "here!"
Removing the kitten from his shoulder he held it close to Ibara's face for inspection. "I call him 'Gregory'! He's really neat! He likes chrimp and cartoons and he sleeps a lot! Oh oh oh and, "Genji rolls the kitten over in his hand and begins to demonstrate, "he purrs when I rub his tummy! Wanna try? I know we were supposed to feed 'em, nurture 'em, play with 'em and house break 'em and stuff, but I can't quite seem to get him to use his litter box....that's ok right?" He said as he smiled up at the teacher hopefully.

Ty looks down bu...bu..ok sensei Ibara...looks down at kitten takes out a kattanna and stabs kitten...It is done

Genji wait...If you can't lose something that has very little purpose how are you going to handle if a teamate dies in battle?

(( ^_^' ok quick question, I'm gonna be trying to stick to Genji's happy-go-lucky / smart-guy character as much as humanly possilbe, but that leaves him not wanting to kill the kitten. If this will kill the story I'll just cave and mince the bugger, but if not I'll continue. Please let me know if kitten death is needed.))

Ibara's foot snapped sharply into the side of Genji's head and his knees momentarily buckled. From a kneeling position he held the kitten nearer to him to shield it with his body.
Spitting out a bit of blood his eyes glare coldly at Ibara, "You've no right to do that Mr.Kazan. You admitted it yourself in your message. To be on your team I'd have had to complete the mission. If I do not then I am not part of your cell and therefore not your ward." Rising shakily back to his feet he grinned again, but there wasn't a lot of humor in the expression, "What good is a unit without individual thoguht Mr.Kazan? Without the ability to think for themselves, individual ninja would perish as soon as their leader was struck down simply because they could not adapt to the situation. You are asking me to give up free though and free will. That's just not cool with me Mr.Kazan."
