Hookers From God!
Character Name: Morioka Kaito
Age: 18
Birthday: July 22
Rank outside ANBU: Chuunin
Affiliated with which ANBU branch: Hunter
Registration Number: 013984
Physical Appearance
Height: 5'11 180 cm
Weight: 165 pounds
Blood Type: A
Hair: A mess of dark brown, tends to hang in his eyes.
Eyes: Very dark blue, with pupils that come to a tiny point at the bottom.
Skin: Naturally slightly pale, but he tans to a sort of gold (as long as he's not out for hours upon hours), rather than burning like his mother's side of the family. He has the occasional zit that mortifies him completely. There's a bit of mottling and freckles across the backs of his shoulders, where he sunburned and peeled badly one year.Maybe several years.
Facial Features: Big eyes, and a wide grin that, when he shows it, seems to offer more teeth than it should. Dimples on those rare occasions when you see the teeth, but much of the time his face falls into pretty solemn lines. He has thick lashes, high cheekbones, and a square jaw lean enough to show off the muscle.
Other Physical Traits: Hands. He has two of them. And feet, he has two of those as well. He's lanky and a bit gawky, obviously still growing but fit for all that. He'll never have model-broad shoulders, but he certainly has the potential to be attractive.
Handedness: right
Voice: It forms words, usually. Sometimes grunts. Occasionally it breaks, and then mortification ensues. When it's not breaking, it's a baritone.
Identifying Marks: The pupils are identifiable, but you have to look pretty closely to see them.
Usual Clothing: Baggy jeans and t-shirts. Sneakers with the laces half undone.
ANBU Mask: A plain white mask with red and blue swirls on the temples
Living Situation: He's assigned to live in ANBU HQ, 3rd floor, apt 319. How often he's actually there, though...
Ninja Skills
Fighting Style: Weapon-based taijutsu.
Preferred Weapons: Shuko (claws worn for climbing and raking opponents, sturdy enough to catch weapons such as swords with) when he has time and reason to don them. Various kinds of chain weapons--such as the kusarifundo, a length of chain with weighted balls on the ends--and nunchucks, adapted to spring a small post at a 90 degree angle to the base (used as a handle, for bludgeoning purposes) and long spikes from the tips when triggered. He also carries a full compliment of senbon and shuriken. And pepperspray. For dogs. Don't laugh.
Special Jutsu: Just the usual range of chuunin-level jutsu, and half of a bloodline limit, discussed elsewhere.
Service Record: (include ages this character graduated and was promoted, other relevant details of their ninja career to date)
12 - grad to genin (which put him at the last year, or so, of the war)
15 - passed the chuunin exams
18 - made ANBU, thanks to his bloodline... quirk.
Personality
General Personality Traits: A bright smile hides a wariness around everyone, and a certain teenage defiance hides a keen desire to please. He's smart, easily distracted, and great at repressing. He has a tendency to not believe people when they offer help or seem to like him. There's a self-frustration at his loyalty to his family, who he doesn't really get along with (but that's no one's business except his own). Ready disdain for anyone lame, and just as ready idolization of anyone cool.
Quirks: He's afraid of being afraid. He hates dogs. He feels the safest place in the world is the psych ward, where whether or not you're crazy they treat you as such. Perfect equality!
Sexual Orientation: He's pretty much asexual, at the moment. That may change.
Gifts/Talents: The Morioka clan has a defensive genjutsu bloodline limit. When threatened, they're able to spin elaborate genjutsu that manipulates people into acting in their favor, working on the other's unconscious minds. Even the Morioka often don't know what they're making others see. Given practice, they can learn how to do this when not threatened, and very accomplished clan members can see what genjutsu they created, and control it.
Kaito is half Morioka. When threatened (or very stressed) and his limit activates, people respond to him as if he'd told them how he was feeling, which ideally acts in his favor--a more visceral form of mental genjutsu; almost an emotional genjutsu. Except it can't control what people feel, only trigger it. And he cannot use it to manipulate them into acting in his favor; instead they act how they might have if he'd spoken aloud. Sometimes this works to Kaito's benefit, as when he's upset about not making rent and his landlord spontaneously decides to allay rent for the week. Other times, this doesn't work in his favor, as when he's feeling nervous in a dangerous crowd, and someone turns on him. Most times, it means kindly old women accost him in public places to give him hugs, if he's feeling blue.
Like any other genjutsu, people don't have a choice on whether or not they get jutsu'd, but as with any emotion they have a choice over what actions to take. If they realize they've been genjutsu'd, they can break it with a kai (which, as it forcibly shuts off the bloodline limit, is painful to Kaito) or physical pain, or anything else that would work on a genjutsu. People who are highly in control of their emotions are less likely to be easily influenced.
As with some genjutsu, it doesn't need eye contact, but with Kaito's version he does need to be within a certain range--it has roughly the radius of a small bar/pub. Once the genjutsu is applied it can remain going even in his absence, though it fades quickly--especially as, until he learns to control it, the focus of the genjutsu is on him. Ideally, someday he'll be able to lock it in and leave, but that's far in the future, if ever.
People who know what he does can learn to recognize when it's happening, and either control their actions or snap out of it like they would with any genjutsu. People in highly charged emotional states, or who are often ruled by their emotions, are less likely to be able to control their actions, but instead do what they think they want. Since it's an emotional genjutsu, there are fewer 'hints' to a person that they've been genjutsu'd, making it more subtle, if less effective in garnering specific actions.
It turns on and off by itself, triggered--as bloodline limits usually are--by stress. It has gotten stronger as he's gotten older, as bloodline limits do, but because he can't control it all that really means is it triggers more easily. Attempts to control it have thus far been unsuccessful, and the Morioka clan is uninterested in helping a half-breed bastard.
Likes and Loves: Pizza. Mmmm. Piercings, which are so hot. Pancakes. Food, in general, really. Playing anything athletic. Oh, and the Hookers From God. His VERY FAVORITE BAND.
Dislikes and Hates: Dogs, for starters. He's not fond of touchy people, either. He doesn't like clans in general. And he hates zits.
Fears: Again with the dogs. Going crazy. Other people thinking he's crazy. Having children. Egads, no.
Dreams and Ambitions: Someday, he'd really like to be part of a family. His own, someone else's, it doesn't really matter. He'd just like to be part of something.
Relationships
Family: Kaito's mother was shunned by the Morioka clan when she got pregnant with a child--from a man outside the clan. The horror. Despite the fact that the clan is dwindling (no matter how they try and convince everyone that once they were as fancy as the Hyuuga), they gave her a choice: Abort the child and stay, or have it and go.
She should have aborted him. Wanted to abort him. And yet... couldn't. She had him and left, and reminds him of that whenever life gets difficult. His relationship with his mother is still turbulent; she can't seem to stop trying to help him, and she bitterly resents every moment of it.
Years ago, she remarried after dating the man for two years. Kaito's stepfather dislikes him rather a lot, mostly because so many other people seem to fall over backward for him. Kaito's just a bit afraid of him, and this seems to make everything worse. Kaito moved out when he made chuunin and avoids his stepfather and two half-brothers (Rafu, eight and Senichi, nine); they don't seem to miss him.
He must have had a blood father, but he doesn't know who the man was. Someday, he'd like to find out--his hope of having a family and being part of a larger whole hasn't ebbed as he's gotten older, but his belief that it will happen has.
Friends: Kaito is a little wary of making friends; people are too eager to hurt or help, and it makes him uncomfortable. Atsuo is currently the only real friend he has, but that relationship, at least, is healthy and whole. Mostly.
Lovers: Tragically, none.
Hero: He's heard a lot about Kakashi the Copy-Nin, and he seems pretty cool. Oh, and the Fourth. Because everyone liked the Fourth, and Kaito's envious. And, of course, his all-time hero: Yamagata Fudo, the most amazing action hero ever. He totally does not own a Yamagata Fudo action figure. Shut up.
Enemies: All dogs, everywhere.
Personal History:
Kaito was born. It was a rather unspectacular birth. There was some blood. Some placenta. And a squalling baby that nearly didn't make it to its mother, for all the doctors and nurses trying to comfort him.
Childhood was a bit like a kaleidoscope of bi-polar disorder on the part of everyone around him. He learned early that wanting something meant he usually got it, but also got the anger that came from his mother feeling manipulated. He learned that any strong emotion of his own brought out the need to comfort and the wrath of being used from others. In school, he learned that even people who didn't like him would do things for him when he needed the help--and then grow wary and angry with him, realizing something was wrong with their emotions when he was near.
From the Morioka clan he learned that they had no tolerance for half-breed bastards.
When his mother married and his brothers were born, he learned that having siblings and a step-father didn't make a family, and that upsetting his mother meant upsetting his step-father. He learned to stay away, because he couldn't stop his emotions.
At twelve he graduated and was assigned a genin team, and from his sensei he learned that he could be useful, if only as a distraction. He didn't learn how to be calm on a mission; he was more useful anxious and worried.
Over time, he learned that some people were harder to emotionally influence than others, and he learned that one of the kids on his genin team, Atsuo, was one of those more stoic people. He also learned that his step-father wasn't, and finally decided at the ripe old age of fourteen that it would probably be easier for everyone involved if he just didn't live at home anymore. At fifteen he became a chuunin, and things settled out a little bit. The girl on his chuunin team met someone and left the ninja world. His sensei continued teaching Kaito and Atsuo, guiding them even when none of them got along.
At sixteen Kaito decided he was going insane, and checked himself into psych. He wasn't going insane. They kicked him out a few weeks later with a note in his file labeling him as the mental form of a hypochondriac. But he did learn something very, very nice: people who worked at psych didn't hug, didn't comfort, didn't do anything that could trigger a possibly dangerous ninja. For the first time in his life, he didn't have to guard his emotions, because other people closely guarded their actions. It was bliss.
Kaito's sensei went his own way when Kaito was seventeen, but not before suggesting he look into the seduction arts.
Kaito turned eighteen without really giving it much thought, and then, a few months ago, got into a discussion with Atsuo. On a dare he applied to ANBU, and was stunned when he was accepted. He didn't miss the irony that the first thing they did was send him for training in seduction.
