Utsukushi no Akumu

Utsukushi no Akumu: rogue Ninja hailing from Moyagakure, wanted for several murders and has escaped from Yugakure Penitentiary. This dangerous man has not been seen since having vanished from the area. Unbeknownst to the men hunting him down, he is ironically a former Hunter-Nin, so tracking him will be difficult.

Background
Akumu's entire history is a complete enigma except to his currently living progenitors.

Early Childhood
Nanimonai began growing up in the village of Moyagakure with two semi-adoring parents raising him. Albeit his parents did care greatly for him, their jobs came first, so he was frequently left within the dwelling alone even at a young age. For several years he was required to, in essence, fend for himself; consequently, the two guardians sometimes returned to a burnt area within the kitchen or the majority of the establishment in disarray.

This was not a bad life, but it was not ideal by any means. It is unknown what age he began attending the Academy, for there was rarely a birthday his family was around to celebrate, resulting in the loss of this information.

Adolescence
Becoming a Genin shortly after entering the Academy, Nanimonai discovered his affinity for Raiton, which became hazardous to the health of his comrades at one point in time due to his inability to control it. This was soon curbed by his Sensei, who also had the affinity, and began teaching the young man how to control it.

With his Sensei's training in mind and his teammates behind him, all three went on to become Chuunin. During this time, Nanimonai started developing feelings for his female comrade, who seemed to show the same interest. Before long the two were inseparable even during missions.

Early Adulthood to Current
The happy life Nanimonai had slowly built up for himself over time would suddenly come crashing down on the eve of his wedding. Called out on a mission, the ceremony was required to be postponed for a future time, which would be acceptable in most circumstances, but the entire length of the mission he was filled with dread.

Upon returning home, that feeling growing ever stronger, Nanimonai found the object of his foreboding emotions, but nothing could have prepared him for what he had to witness that unforgettable evening. His fiance had been brutally raped and slaughtered like a common farm animal, and the three enemy Ninja had only just finished up their deed.

Was it wrong of him to freeze and lose control of his frame? Everything within him violently urged him to strike out and kill them there, but he was too frightened and shocked to do a thing. Many taunting words later, the three men vanished without a trace, leaving the village with many questions, yet Nanimonai had far more. That night continued to haunt him, but he exacted his revenge on the worthless souls of the men who dared to defile his now deceased fiance.

Nanimonai was found a week after his disappearance carrying the body of a larger man over his shoulder with a gleam in his eyes. He had never been one to break a law or defy orders, but he had already gone off the deep end, so he decided there was no going back. He fought a total of twelve prison guards single-handedly and with only an engraved kunai. He killed five and severely injured seven others, but was still captured and taken to a Penitentiary in Yugakure where he remained for almost a month and garnered the alias "Utsukushi no Akumu" (Akumu for short) before vanishing.

He is being hunted, but his whereabouts are currently unknown to them as he journeys towards Amegakure. His plans? He is not yet aware of them himself, for his life has yet to go how he wished it.

Personality
Akumu is a calm and level-headed man despite his unstable outburst that landed him in a Penitentiary. He is somewhat arrogant when threatened, for he does not fear death and is willing to fight as if the Grim Reaper is not knocking on his door. Still, though, he retains his collected demeanor, which is frequently admired by the female population.

His charming tone and actions often times have him appearing very much like a gentleman. His intelligence is highly revered, for his problem solving skills are impeccable and strategy is his strong point. On another note, his instability has made him a little less of a "good guy" and more of a "bad guy," but if anything he could be thought of as a "tragic villain," for he was forced into a life of crime and just hasn't been able to flee from it.

Attire
The apparel donning his body is simple and obstructs the view to his body underneath. Upon his torso is a long-sleeved, dark toned shirt. Around his legs are sweat pants, black in color, with a weapon's holster on his right thigh containing all necessary equipment. Shoes are the standard, black footwear seem by most all ninja.

Frame and Visage
Akumu has dark and short hair that is styled in an unkempt manner, and the length never exceeds eye level. He has piercing, mesmerizing amber optics that can tell every emotion he is experiencing without the assistance of his facial features, which are sharp and stern in appearance.

He has pale skin that often reflects whichever light shines upon it and has a finely toned body with just enough muscle mass to get him by.

Medical Knowledge
Akumu has high anatomical knowledge and biochemistry seems to be his focal point. Due to this, he is able to utilize a Medical Ninjutsu known as the Important Body Points Disturbance Technique, which focuses on electrical impulses within the body to try and sever or disrupt them. Because of his high intelligence around this area, he is quickly able to recuperate even after being struck with this attack from someone else. In a spar or battle, his targets will center around pressure points and important arteries while utilizing the Chakra Scalpel, which is the only other Medical Ninjutsu he bothers with learning.. There are roughly 360-370 pressure points, so his likelihood of hitting just one is very high.

Although appearing to be young, his tremendous skill in this area is far beyond what is expected, but it further proves he is entirely capable and has tremendous chakra control.

With his knowledge on biochemistry, and chemistry as well, he is well qualified to create antidotes to toxins of varying kinds within a matter of minutes, perhaps a few hours if the poison or venom is too strong for standard measures. He always has a supply of Blood Pills, Military Rations Pills, and Painkillers, but all of these are rarely used on others, proving he's not much for the healing aspect of Medicine so much as the destruction portion.

Furthering his chemistry knowledge, he utilizes a poisonous gas that he himself is partially-immune to and made himself that is created from Aconitum, which can promote dizziness, sweating, nausea, and confusion, but this is only in minor doses. This smoke, however, has been mixed with other elements to cause a delaying effect so that immediate distress of spreading smoke doesn't occur. Due to his ability to manipulate gases, he can keep this poison within the air as long as he wishes, yet must be cautious so as not to poison himself.

Kayakujutsu
Kayakujutsu is his most favored fighting style, which mostly consists of using explosives as a means of utilizing Bukijutsu. The most common form seen is Explosive Tags that many Ninja use as an attachment to weaponry. Some forms of Akumu's style are abnormal, such as when fusing his chakra with the paper to make it more aerodynamic. This is not a form of Kami Ninjutsu, for the paper can do nothing more than harden just enough to be thrown, which would still cause nothing worse than a paper cut if it actually came into contact with someone's flesh.

Fuuinjutsu
Albeit the art is a difficult one, Akumu has managed to garner a few techniques in this area, but none exceed the rank of C. He doesn't often have a need for these abilities, nor does he plan on furthering them, but having them around is good.

Speed, Quickness, Agility, Flexibility
All of the stats mentioned are Akumu's strongest areas of physical combat. Albeit not as strong as most, dodging attacks comes easier for him and his reaction time is greater than most. He may be able to put a lot of power behind his attacks, which isn't the same as strength, but he still excels far more in the aforementioned areas.

Control of Gases
This particular "affinity," we'll call it, has no real name and it is unknown where it originated from. What is known, however, is that the user can manipulate the gas they exhale or produce from bombs in a way that they can cause the opponent's senses to begin failing and they can also be trapped by smoke-like tendrils formed with the user's chakra.

It's apparent that good chakra control is required to manipulate this smoke. When using the Smoke Dragon Technique, a large amount of smoke is exhaled from his mouth (contrary to the use shown in the anime) and is then manipulated to appear as a dragon, which is controlled to lunge at the opponent as a means of blinding and suffocating them.

Raiton
His particular affinity for Raiton is more so used as a way of sharpening his single kunai that is always carried into battle, but it is apparent that he is skilled enough with it to use several jutsu, but doesn't always resort to it unless no other way is seen.
