Character Information

Name: Sumizome Tomoshibi

Age: 17

Gender: Male

Place of Birth: Land of Iron

Date of Birth: May 5th

Appearance: Sumizome is very short and young looking for his age, so instead of looking 16 he looks more like a 12 year old more or less. Sumizome isn't rather built, he's got some muscle, but not to the point where it's bulging, and it's somewhat unnoticeable under his clothes. His hair is snowy white, his eyes are pale blue, he has a light tan, and he carries a soft expression on his face most of the time. Sumizome prefers not to wear the samurai armor that has been given to him. He finds the armor bulky and hard to move in. Instead he wears rather traditional clothing from feudal eras. He wears, straw sandals, tabi socks, black hakama, a silky silver no-sleeved top with a dragon on the back. He wears his samurai armor when he must, but his is different than most others. His armor is black and silver, looking nothing like the traditional samurai armor and more like a new-age type of armor. Looking something like this:

Spoiler:

He wears a rather large scroll that is tied around his waist (Think Tenten) inside of which is a numerous amount of weapons. Sumizome also has a small red and golden dragon tattoo on his right shoulder to his neck.

Height: 5'

Weight: 112 pounds

Personality: Sumizome is a hard working person, when he is given a task he likes to get it done without taking any breaks. He's a fighter; usually fighting to the point that he can't fight anymore. Around people he can be takative or quiet, it usually depends on his mood. He is a cool headed individual, this state of mind usually stays with him even in battle. Sumizome is also a nature lover and lover of the arts. When it comes to socializing, he is somewhat good in that area. Sometimes he can be a very friendly person, while other times he can be seen as a loner. He likes to help those that are in need and likes to make friends with people who he trusts.

After the Tomoshibi clan defected to Iwagakure, they sought refuge in Kumogakure. The history says that all of them went to Kumogakure; however this is not the case. Some members of the Tomoshibi clan moved to various places around the shinobi world, some even fled to the Samurai nations. A small group of Tomoshibi clan members, no larger than 12 people, were one of those groups who fled to the samurai nations. Among this group was a pregnant female (his mother). He was born shortly after his family’s arrival to the land of iron. Since he was born to two shinobi parents he was trained to use his Kekkei Genkai, however since he was born in the land of iron, he also began training as a samurai. His training started from when he was 6 years old and onward. Learning both the ways of the Samurai and the ways of the shinobi proved to be tough, the Samurai's way was way different from the Shinobi's way and so he had to find a way to make them both work. Sumizome excelled in things such as Kendo and hand to hand combat, and for his shinobi training he excelled in stealth, his kekkei genkai, and other areas. He entered to Samurai academy at the age of 10 and graduated at the age of 13.Sumizome's time as a Chugen was relatively short, his samurai and shinobi training really made him a natural at fighting. He spent most of his time as a chugen training as a samurai and receiving lessons from his (former) shinobi parents. He received his first custom sword at the age of 14 as a birthday present from his grandfather. With further training, he was able to impress the “higher-ups” and move on to the Gashira rank at 15. While a Gashira, Sumizome began to work on his own custom armor. He really didn’t like the standard samurai armor, but he didn’t want to complain about it when he was a low rank. When he got the proper materials he began to work on his armor. In addition to this, instead of regular swords, he began to use his clan weapons. They were easier to carry and could be hidden with little effort, which made them great stealth weapons. The only swords he did carry were the first sword he received, and the large sword that was given to him when he was born. He was a very dedicated warrior, following order s and going on missions without any questions. After a year, he was promoted to Kyuunin.

Name: Hagane Tenmetsu [Flashing Steel]
Type: Supplementary
Rank: C
Element: -
Range: Self
Hagane Tenmetsu's ability is to allow the samurai using it to summon their armor on to their body or taking it off of their body, without having to go through the trouble of actually putting it on or taking it off. By sealing their armor on a seal somewhere on their body, they will be able to summon their armor rather instantaneously by sending a small amount of chakra into the seal and bringing out their armor. This works in a way similar to a summoning technique, where the user summons a weapon, object, or animal; this just summons armor instead. It get's the name Flashing Steel from how it looks while activated. When the armor is summoned the seal will emit a very bright light for about 5 seconds and when it clears the samurai will be covered in their armor. The same will be done when the armor is being taken off.
Mastery: Yes

Generic Sealing Technique
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: -
This technique is a standard ninja skill which allows a ninja to summon an assortment of items or weapons that have been stored using Fūinjutsu, typically they are stored within scrolls. When needed, the owner will activate the seals releasing their item or weapon of choice. Puppets can have these hidden inside various compartments as a means of increasing their own killing potential as well as hiding useful weapons from the opponent's sight.

Summoning: Lightning Blade Creation
Rank: B
Type: Weaponry
Range: Close-Mid
This is a special "ninja tool summon" that allows the user to seal ninja tools like swords or kunai into, a scroll or their clothes beforehand, allowing them to be called upon when needed. The ninja tools can be summoned in an instant just by touching the sealing "marks" which can be drawn anywhere. The greatest advantage of this technique is that the time between taking out a ninja tool, taking the right stance and actually throwing it is greatly reduced. Also when a weapon such as a Fūma Shuriken is summoned, the time needed to throw it can be further shortened by having prepared the weapon in fully extended form beforehand. The ninja tools are thrown with the actual speed of a "flash of lightning," ruining the opponent's outset of the battle, and snatching away the initiative. Furthermore, because the summon-able ninja tools can remain hidden until right before they are used, if this technique is mastered, there are an exceptional number of possible tactics.

Twin Rising Dragons
Rank: B
Type: Weaponry
Range: Close-Mid
First, Tenten places two small scrolls in the floor. When activated, the two scrolls release smoke while also flying and spinning into the air in the shape of two dragons made of smoke. Tenten then jumps between the two scrolls, and starts to rapidly summon and throw all sort of weapons as a powerful barrage. If the initial attack were to fail, she can control the discarded weapons with wires attached to her fingertips for a surprise attack. However, because the weapons are thrown, they are easily countered by wind techniques.

Manipulated Tools: Heavenly Chain of Destruction
Rank: A
Type: Weaponry
Range: Close-Long
A stronger version of the Twin Rising Dragons, Tenten tosses her large scroll into the air above her opponent and summons hundreds of different weapons from it, which then rain down, impaling them anything in their path. The weapons move so fast that they appear as white streaks.

Hidden Massacre
Rank: A
Type: Weaponry
Range: Close
This weaponry technique is more of a trap than anything. Sumizome will lay several scrolls on the ground, walls, and ceiling in a certain area, and then make them blend in with their surroundings using his chakra. He will then work to lure his enemy to this area (or if they approach him) and then activate the scrolls. The activated scrolls will shoot out a variety of weapons from every direction and impale the careless enemy to death. Being a trap jutsu, it cannot be used instantaneously as it needs several moments to set up.
