Personal v2

Personality: Zenshi is a mainly quiet man who doesn't like doing work and will complain about it but he will still do whatever he is assigned or asked. He is a strong believer in karma and if a well known jerk is being harassed or attacked he will ignore it as he believes it is what they had coming to them. He will always stick up for the little guy as he believes it would help his own karma, he especially has a soft spot for children and will always say hello to them and play with them if they ask. He is very slow to anger and it would take constant pestering for him to completely lose his temper. One thing that instantly causes him to lose his temper is someone mistreating a child, and the person doing the mistreating will get severely beaten.

Likes: Zenshi likes to lounge around and do nothing, he also loves playing with children and making them happy. He also enjoys sparring and hanging out with his lifelong friend Shirou. He also loves his home village of the desert, the heat, the sand, the people, everything about it he loves and he can mostly be found just lounging on his back in the sand staring at the sky. He also loves to eat spicier foods and has always liked darker colors more than others.

Dislikes: He dislikes above all things the mistreatment of children. he also dislikes colder places because of his entire upbringing in the desert. He also has always had a dislike of loud noises, he doesn't really know why but every time he hears a loud bang he gets slightly angry and will search out the source to stop it. He also hates when he is judged for being quiet,

Motivation: Zenshis motivation is to protect the children of the world, and to have a family of his own one day. As well as becoming one of the strongest Taijutsu specialists in the world.

Fears: Zenshi fears being crippled, it would ruin his dreams of becoming stronger and it is worse than dying as he would be in the afterlife and fully happy in death.


Clan Information

Xanadu

Bloodline Name: Meikai no shugo-sha (Guardians of the Netherworld)

Bloodline Ability: Members of this clan are half-phantom and half-human. Although this is true, it also caused their Chakra pool to be completely removed from their body and deposited at a mysterious orb-like spirit of varying colour. (Explained in history) The spirit orb can only be seen only by the members of the clan or someone who has seen death happen in front of their eyes. Due to their lack of charka, the body and mind of the members of this clan, works faster and harder to grant them better traits in terms of physical and mental attributes, agility, speed, strength, endurance and et cetra by 3 times. They also have great insight and foresight over many things, have a very high level of concentration.

Genin, Chuunin:
During this level, they have to concentrate and absorb chakra from their spirit half. This makes it quite troublesome for those who want to be quick on their toes in battle. Although, they can use E~C rank jutsu’s with ease.

Sp. Jounin, Jounin, S-rank:
During this level, jutsu’s ranging from A~S rank will backfire on the caster if it involves charka but to counter this disability members of the clan are able to merge with their spirit half for only 15 posts. Thus, letting them access Jutsu’s from A~S rank. Note that if the jutsu involves absorbing charka from ones spirit half, it would require two posts for A~S rank unless stated. This can be used once per topic.

Below states the weapons that can be carried by the clan members. Note that the swords are passed down from their forefathers (Explained in history).

Virtues:
Chastity – Increases jutsu damage by two fold.
Temperance – Dispels Genjutsu every two posts.
Kindness – Heals the user passively but at a small amount.
Charity – Has the ability to sap your life in return for an increase in power
Diligence – Able to continue a battle after being landed a critical hit
Patience – Increased focus, insight, foresight and senses.
Humility – Does not feel fear or pain when used.

Vice:
Lust – Has the ability to sap life from the opponent to heal yourself.
Gluttony – Loves to drink blood, the more blood, the more power.
Envy – Has the ability to copy the shape and effects of other weapons but its strength is 80% of the original.
Greed – The more Ryo one has in hand, the more powerful the weapon
Sloth – The being of slowness can have a very slow movement but very high damage output
Wrath – Increase all stats by two times but at a cost of your sanity
Pride – Being as pride, it does not like other charka except for its owner, thus it will push aside all other charka.

Colour to discern the seven members:
Red
Orange
Yellow
Green
Cyan
Blue
Purple/Indigo
Pink/Violet

(Note that each member can have a max of two weapons, one Virtue, one Vice and I’m stating the suggested effects but not the type of each weapon as I want it to be versatile for other members that want to join. Please take a look at the last post after approval as I’ll state who takes which Vice, Virtue and Colour.)


Location: Scattered

Clan History: ong ago, war broke out. Countless lives lost in the blood stained grounds, bodies rotting, souls left unrest. Scarlet flames swirl in wake, devouring anything in its path. Merciless. Unforgiving. It comes after each battle. It’s fate? To cleanse! It’s desire? To give peace to those who have passed on.

In truth the clan was just scattered bits of nomadic people. They have no intension nor relation to what happened to the outside world. They preferred to throw everything not normal to them and live in peace as they travelled from place to place, gaining knowledge on much of the geography of the world, not to mention some well hidden ancient temples, shires and hideouts. They also have wide knowledge over many rumours, myths and legends that held were around at that time.

Among every mystery, one of them stood out the most. The legend of the temple of judgement, Tamashī no handan. Although, none of the seven members founding members of the clan went there as of yet, the legend spread like a virus, unrelenting, ever putting people in a trance state of desire. Everyone thought it was salvation and eternal bliss that will be found inside but the clan founders stayed away, fearful that the corruption will get to them.

Alas, they couldn’t escape the fate that which the temple already predicted. Soon, all of the ten leaders and their families meet at the temple. The famed mystery of the temple of black and white. One side it was rotting with darkness, malice and sin, the other with pureness, clarity and virtue. Stunning it was but something or someone stood out. A certain elderly caretaker, stood to greet them. Unknowingly, their life has already been changed when they first came to know about the temple.

Time passed and each of the founding members changed, their families were told to wait for them far away, at the nearby river they all meet. Soon a ritual started, the caretaker revealed to be an immortal lady named Shikieiki Yamaxanadu, her job to get people to help her judge the living and send souls to their final resting place. She granted each of them a power they will never forget. Separate souls representing seven colours, their hairs having the colours of their respecting souls and weapons each depicting a vice and a virtue. Their gold was simple, to help people leave behind regrets and finally leave the world in peace.

Shocked by their predicament, each of them went down the path and the only way to move on was forward but slowly, each member will find themselves ever tied to this path. Unable to run away. “The truth is that peace is always within..” Shikieiki said before the seven founding members left the temple and it will forever stay the same as time goes on for eternity.


History

History: On one hot spring day in Sabakugakure there was a baby boy with purple hair born to two parents, one, his father, who was an accomplished ninja of the village and a stubborn man who wanted nothing more than a son who would follow in his footsteps and one day become one of the strongest ninja to ever come from the village. This man was also one of the Xanadu. The other, his mother, a simple house wife with no fighting abilities was just happy with a child and vowed to love him unconditionally no matter what path he chose in life. They named this child Zenshi. On the day of his birth both of them had an item appear to them, that his father knew what it could mean but didn't accept it at the time. To the father, a mechanical looking fist and to the mother a golden amulet with an amythest in the center. The father hid away the item he was presented with hoping to prevent his son from ever finding out what it was out of jealousy, but his mother, ignorant to its importance, kept it to herself and wore it.

Zenshi grew up being bred as a warrior by his father, he was forced to wake up early, was on a strict training regimine, and was only allowed certain foods. This kind of lifestyle annoyed Zenshi as he preferred to just lay around and stare at the sky. So often when he was supposed to be training he would sneak off and hang out his his lifelong friend Shirou Gessekai, their families were always close so he grew up around him so they had always been good friends. His father on the other hand didnt like Shirous goody goody attitude and said he was too nice for his own good.

Through his training with his father Zenshi showed amazing prowess in taijutsu, even able to defeat his father in spars every once in a while. His father was angered by this but he took it as a sign that he would have to give his son the thing that was revealed to him on the day of his birth, his Vice of Sloth. So before training on a hot summer afternoon he took Shizen into his bedroom and pulled an ornate box out of his closet and opened it revealing the machanical fist that hadn't change at all from the day he recieved it, he then explained to him the story of his clan, and told him he was the one to be handed down this weapon and that someday he would recieve a similar object to be his virtue, he just didn't know when.

After being told the story Zenshi realised what he thought was natural to everyone actually wasnt, the violet orb that was always with him, his increased insight into things, his increased physical prowess, and his ability to always feel when someone nearby has died and their soul entering the netherworld. It was all because he was selected to recieve these objects called his Vice and Virtue.

Zenshi was ignorant to the mechanical fists ability until one day when he was training with Shirou shortly after recieving it. They were doing one of their usual taijutsu spars and Zenshi noticed that when he wore the the fist he moved at considerably slower speeds which hindered his usual fast paced strategy. So he adapted and began using the fist to block and when he went in for a jab at Shirous gut, he felt like his hitting power was increased immensly, and the punch caused him to double over winning him the spar, he could get used to this thing.

Shortly after the death of Shirous father which he had to console him through, Zenshis mother fell ill. He cut his training and all of his social life to remain by her bed side waiting, and hoping for her to recover. After 3 months of battling the illness, on Zenshis birthday his mother died, but with her dying breath she gave him the amulet and told him that she found it on the day of his birth. It was then Zenshi realised that his mother had been holding his virtue, the virtue of Temperance, his entire childhood.

Zenshi was now enrolled in the Academy with Shirou, it was during Shirous second attempt as during the first he was with his mother. He excelled in all aspects of the academy, especially in taijutsu with aid of his vice. But it wasnt until he was used as a dummy to practice genjutsu that he realised what his virtue did. Since genjutsu was one of his weaker points the class drafted him to be used as the dummy, he stood in the front as one of the best students in genjutsu used one on him and quickly after it was placed his amulet began to glow, and then without any effort on his part, the genjutsu simply ended. They of course figured it was the students fault the first few times but it happened continually, it was then that he discovered that his virtue of temperance was a mental barrier, protecting him from genjutsu

Zenshi graduated out of the academy in the same class as Shirou at the age of 16, he now doesn't speak to his father much but still trains to make him proud and become a taijutsu specialist. He also still hangs out with Shirou and even travels with him on some occasions, he was like a brother to him. He now knows almost all the abilities his clan has, even if he cant use most of them and will continue to train to become stronger.

RP Sample:
t was a warm day in Boufuugakure, there was a slight rain falling from the sky as there always was in the village. Under a tree sat a young boy reading a book while 3 others played with a ball a close distance away. The boy who was sitting under the tree was no other than Rosuto Dokuta. He was reading one of his favorite medical books and was at the section having to do with the brain, his favorite organ.

As he read one of the boys playing with the ball kicked it and it bounced over to Rosuto. He looked up from his book at the ball then to the boy standing just a few feet away from him, as if he were afraid to get closer. Rosuto grabbed the ball and smiled at the boy and said in a soft tone while handing it to him "Heres your ball back." after he said this the boy took it and said "Thanks." the boy walked a little ways before turnig around and yelling "Freak!" the boy then kicked the very ball Rosuto gave back to him right at his face.

It made contact and threw his head backwards into the tree causing intense pain throughout his entire head. He curled into a fetal position and began to cry quietly as the boys laughed and ran away. He felt alone and rejected, a pain he had felt so many times before, and it wasnt getting easier to manage.
