Overview: Beneath Ayako's quiet exterior, she holds a deep conviction about the weight and matters of life. She works only for her cause, not for glory or political power. She is usually oppressed and downtrodden; she occasionally fantasies about getting revenge on those who have done harm to her, but rarely carries along with it. She is usually curious about others motives, but not easily led. You can rarely fool Ayako anytime, she is usually affable and sympathetic to most however she is very selective about her friends, such a friendship is symbiotic bond that transcends mere wounds. She grasps on psychological stimuli behind the more observable dynamics of behavior and affect, she has an amazing ability to deduce the inner working of her mind. Will and emotions of others gives her an over looker or prophesized look. She acts insightfully and spontaneously as unique solutions arise on an event by event basis.

She has a range of emotions and opinions of, for and about people in general. She often finds herself caught between the desire to express her wealth of feelings and moral conclusions about the actions and attitudes of others, and the awareness of the consequences of an unbridled candor. She vents attending emotions in private, to trusted allies and friends. Such confidants are chosen with care she is well aware of the treachery that can reside in the hearts of mortals. Ayako's thinking is introverted, turned towards the subject. When she is thinking she is most aloof, since she is not really paying attention. A comrade might surmise that such detachment signals disillusionment, that she has also been found lacking by the sardonic eye of one who plumbs the depths of the human spirit. Experience suggests that such distancing is merely an indication that she is hard at work and focusing energy into a less efficient tertiary function.

She is twice blessed with the clarity of vision both internal and external, just as she possesses inner vision which is drawn to the forms of the unconscious, She also has external sensing perception which readily takes hold of worldly objects. She may under stress fall prey to various forms of immediate gratification. She is a doer as well as a dreamer. She can only be emotionally intimate and fulfilled with a chosen few among her long term friends and family, She may at times suddenly withdraw to herself, shutting out even her intimates. Due to the unique perspective produced by this alternation between detachment and involvement in the lives of people around her, she may well have the clearest insights of the motivations of others, for good and for evil. Most contributing factor to this uncanny gift is the empathic abilities within her. This empathy can serve as a classic example of the two-edged nature of her talents, as it can be strong enough to cause discomfort or pain in negative or stressful situations, more explicit inner conflicts are not uncommon in her. This can make it difficult for her to articulate her deepest and more convolutated feelings. She possesses a strong personal charisma which aids her in some situations as well.

Likes:
Physical Attractants; things that look "cool" or catch her eye.
Reading; from Books to something scratched into a wall.
Human Nature; Why people do things they do.
Puzzles; From jigsaw to death traps, it will let her brain work.

Dislikes:
Anything Boring; Generally anything that isn't on the list above.
Controllers; People who attempt/succeed to influence her actions
Idiots; People who act Dumb for no reason better then attention
Smart@ss's; People who act smarter when really they don't know what they're talking about.

Philosophy: Rachel views human's very spiritually, she likes to observe and see how people react to certain situations, she is very experimental even if it gets her into some trouble with either the law or other people. She views people how they should be; Innocent until proven guilty and such.
Nindo: "Be yourself, because if you aren't; you will never find the true power of the human spirit."

Name: Kujaku
Village: Star
Special Traits:
Glorious Peacock Chakra:
All Kujaku clan members are subject to training in their home village near an alien metorite that forcefully draws out the body's natural chakra reserves and then expands the body's capacity for chakra. The chakra takes on a purple color and resembles a flame in its movements and actions. The chakra is easily moved outside of the body and takes the natural form of tendril like formations from the base of the user's spine.

Typically these tendrils of chakra resemble peacock feathers, though other forms could exist and do exist depending on the user and their chakra's natural formation when moved out of the body in its tainted form. The chakra retains all the properties of chakra, excluding its ability to interact in its natural form with solid objects which natural chakra does not possess the ability to do.

All Kujaku clan members have a chakra increase of triple a normal ninja's chakra level for their age and rank. They also loss little chakra when using clan techniques. Inversely, a Kujaku clan member's chakra is of little use for internal jutsu, hence, they are unable to use any jutsu that does not have an external form as its primary function. (Ex. Most elemental jutsu create an external effect, creating something in the world, while many medical jutsu work within the body or another's body, and are impossible for a Kujaku clan member to use.)

They are also hindered in their use of Genjutsu, any chakra directed out of their body is visible when attempting to use Genjutsu. This creates a problem, since most Genjutsu users find it a hindrance that they cannot use their techniques unseen. The Genjutsu still functions, however, once it contacts an opponent.

In a similar manner, all chakra that a clan member uses in jutsu is visible, all jutsu glow with a purple colored aura, or are purple. This doesn't affect the jutsu's effect, just its coloration, a purple fireball would still be as potentially destructive as a normal fireball. Earth, plants, or other non-organic substances that are currently housing a clan member's chakra glow purple, making it difficult to conceal and hide trap jutsu.

Short Life:
All Kujaku clan members, due to their bodies unnatural chakra expansion and alteration, have a shortened life span. They typically do not live past their thirties, a rare person might live into their fifties if they halted their training and exposure to the metorite. Each use of jutsu with the tainted chakra speeds this along, making active ninja extremely unlikely to live into their thirties, often dying in their twenties.

Chakra Marks:
Due to exposure to the alien metorite, various purple markings appear on the flesh like tattoos and reveals their unnatural nature. The marks are readily identifiable by Hyuuga or others able to sense chakra from a distance, they radiate with chakra, though this does not allow for the average ninja to detect it. These marks appear much more frequently and visibly on ninja who use their clan jutsu more often or are physically weak.

These marks appear to have a damaging effect on the ninja's body, disabling the use of Taijutsu, Kenjutsu, or Weaponry techniques since the body is incapable of making the necessary movements needed in the majority of their jutsu.


Kekkei Genkai: None
Secret Clan Jutsu: Listed in Jutsu
History:
On an unknown date some period in the past, a meteorite struck the earth in a small village that aroused the villagers interest. One of the villagers, the leader of the village, plucked the meteor from the crater it created in one of the nearby mountains and stated that the matter would be investigated in the morning, since the occurrence was at night, and kept the stone near his bed as he slept.

When he awoke in the morning, he felt a strength he had not felt before, and his chakra felt more powerful and more plentiful than ever before. He described these feelings to his villagers in the morning and stated that he believed it to be an effect of the meteorite he had slept near. The village had a few ninja in it and though they had ninja, the village had no military power and was treated as a lesser village.

These ninja asked that they be allowed to use the meteorite to increase their own powers and thus bring fame and respect to the village. The decision was agreed upon and the meteorite was housed in a portion of the village leader's home, in a small house where it was given great respect and honor. The ninja trained around it, slept around it, ate around it, and lived in the same house as it.

After a few years, the original village leader began to suffer the side-effects of the meteorites power, growing sickly and discovering markings on his body and finding his chakra unable to be used for even the most remedial jutsu without turning purple in color. He resolved to banish any further use of the meteorite and wrote a decree on that matter that he handed down to his servant to deliver to the people as he slept.

The servant, however, was unfaithful and spoke to the village ninja who were gaining strength from the meteorite. They were appalled and paid the servant to take them to the leader's home where they beheaded and slew him. After this event they took control of the village, stating that the former leader had died and willed the village to the capable village ninja. Every young person in the village was to train with the meteorite and gain its powers, so that they would gain military respect and power.

To this date, the crime remains unknown and the meteorite is regularly used by all those in the village deemed strong enough to endure its effects. The side-effects are well-known by the first users who are presently in their own penalty phase and are suffering on their way to their deaths. They remain tight-lipped however on the effects, making sure all others in the village are ignorant of them.

CLAN TECH'S

Name: Peacock Art, Chakra Release
Rank: D
Type: None
Element: None
Description: A clan member's purple chakra is pushed out of the body and takes a visible form. The form it takes is different for each user, though it is commonly a peacock tail with multiple feathers. Feathers are added according to rank, starting off with three feathers at D Rank, and increasing by two feather per rank, with a maximum of eleven feathers. If the chakra takes a form that is not feathers, then replace all instances of 'feather' with the appropriate word in all clan jutsu including this jutsu.

Name: Peacock Art, Meditative Stance
Rank: D
Type: None
Element: None
Description: Using a form of meditation used to gain their initial powers, a clan member can close their eyes, sit down, and relax their bodies in order to increase chakra output to optimal levels. All clan jutsu are reduced to a chakra cost one rank lower than their true rank, but this jutsu cannot reduce the highest rank of jutsu available (Ex.A Genin cannot reduce C Rank jutsu costs to D Rank until they are Chunnin.) While in this stance, the user is in a state of unconsciousness and it takes one post to return to normal, in which the user cannot be under immediate threat. The stance cannot be exited, for example, when someone threatens to deal bodily harm to the user in their post, they would take the damage and then exit their stance.

Name: Peacock Art, Chakra Ropes
Rank: D
Type: Ninjutsu
Element: None
Description: A clan member creates strings of chakra from their hands (about a half inch in diameter in thickness), of the typical purple color, that are able to be used as normal string, typically to tie and bind an opponent. The strings are immune to the standard 'Rope Escape' jutsu and are unable to be cut or damage by standard ninja weaponry, nor can they be burst with physical strength. Most jutsu are unable to break the strings, since they are pure chakra and lack the weaknesses inherit in normal rope or strings. Destroying, eating, re-channeling, or otherwise interrupting the chakra destroys the strings, but the chakra in the strings is stagnant so jutsu that rely on chakra flow do not function.
The strings will break at the command of a clan member, and only at the command of a clan member (as in, no other ninja's command will break them.) The strings take a fair amount of time to properly wrap around an opponent, so they cannot be used on an active and conscious opponent unless they are willing. This is the most common way of removing the strings.
Enough rope is created from this jutsu to bind one individual, around 8-10ft of rope. The usual method of tying is using three bands of rope. The rope does not knot, it simply fuses into the other end of itself and then remains.

Name: Peacock Art, Chakra Attack
Rank: D
Type: Ninjutsu
Element: None
Description: A clan member directs their chakra to attack an opponent (after using Peacock Art, Chakra Release), extending out to attack a target(s) in whatever attack is directed and is naturally possible (ex. the typical peacock feathers would be used to slam, slap, or slash at opponents but could not be used to bite since they lack a mouth, or claw since they lack talons.) Each feather can extend out 5ft. from the user at D Rank, with 5ft. added per rank beyond that, maxing at 25ft. The chakra attacks at high speed, making it virtually impossible to dodge within 2ft of the user at D Rank, with 1ft added per rank, maxing at 6ft. Attacks beyond this range are still fast, but are able to be dodged by a nimble opponent.

The chakra strikes with the strength of a tree trunk being swung, making it capable of knocking back opponents and destroying environmental hindrances with ease. Direct attacks against the chakra sever the feather(s) attacked, though they can be recreated with another use of Peacock Art, Chakra Release.

Name: Peacock Art, Chakra Defense
Rank: C
Type: Ninjutsu
Element: None
Description: A clan member directs their chakra to defend themselves and solidify into a harder and more durable form (this jutsu can only be used after Peacock Art, Chakra Release.) The chakra feathers change hardness so they are able to block attacks without being broken or destroyed, acting as wholely solid objects. The defensive power is able to negate attacks that are one rank lower than the user, attacks at the same rank or higher are only partially hindered by the defense and continue on towards the target.

Name: Peacock Art, Chakra Wings
Rank: C
Type: Ninjutsu
Element: None
Description: A clan member changes the form of their typical chakra feathers into wings that enable flight. The wings are differing in appearance according to the user, but they all are able to be used for flight, and all must be around the same size as the user or larger. If directly attacked by jutsu, the wings 'break' and return to the user's body.

Inventory:
5 Kunai, 10 exploding notes, 25 arrows in quiver, small hand-held mirror, 100ft of Wire on Reel, 2 specific arrows with 10 feet of wire in between them (In quiver as well), 10 Shuriken,

Name: Sharptooth
Quantity: 1
Rank: C
Physical Description: Sharptooth is a grey colored metal bow with many intracite designs on it. At the grip, there are two eagle heads pointing outward in front of the hand, it looks quite battle-hardened and has quite a few stratches and nicks in it.
Natural Abilities: Sharptooth is made by a very strong wooden frame, then using special quick drying cement, metal is applied to it, making it quite hard to bend, but it also makes it able to block the brute force of a full swing of a sword. Due to the repeated use the metal has become more and more flexible until eventually it is like a normal bow, with maybe a little extra pull, however it still shows its strength in its ability to block attacks. There are also two small blades on each side of the bow, making it able to be swung as a weapon ineffectively without proper training, but with the correct training which Ayako doesn't have yet, it could be a brutal ranged and close ranged weapon.
Powered Abilities: ~
History: Sharptooth was created with help to help Ayako with her little knowledge of hand to hand combat, before she had this weapon she was extremely restricted to distanced fighting and usually her prime strategy was to keep her distance from the enemy. If the enemy were to get close to her, 90% of the time she would lose the fight, however once this was given to her by a family friend in the clan; she was able to withstand close ranged combat for the few quick seconds that were needed.

Pre-Academy Arc:
Ayako was one of the girls that is more interested in the world around her then people around her. However she was also very interested in people, she only took interest in a couple of people if you wanted to be her friend you had to prove to her that you had something that no one else had. Something special that made them who they were. She was strict about it and didn’t just accept anyone. She was very detached as a little kid. Not really paying attention to things. The most significant moment was her younger childhood, the first time her parents took her to the playground. At first Ayako just stood next to her parents, unsure of what she was supposed to do, simply observing the children there for several minutes.

When she finally made her move it was not to the playground, it was to the small pond near the playground, where frogs were jumping into the water. Giggling at this she continued to watch the frogs jump in and out of the water until a girl approached her. “Hey” the girl said taking a seat beside Ayako, “Want to play with us?” the girl pondered, Ayako looked dumbfounded at the girl, “Uh...” she glanced over at her parents who signaled for her to join the girl. “Uh…no thanks…” Ayako said not really wanting to do what they were doing; she was more interested in the frogs. Something surprised Ayako though, the girl didn’t go back to playing, and she remained with Ayako. “I’m Itami. What’s your name?” The girl asked Ayako blinked at the girl, “Ayako…” She said trailing off, Itami smiled, “Nice to meet you Ayako.” Ayako smiled uneasily back at her.

What was this feeling Ayako was feeling, Ayako grinned wider for a moment, and then looked back at the frogs giggling as they jumped into the water with a sound plop. Itami began to giggle then too, Ayako fell backwards as she continued to laugh harder, why was she laughing so hard? It was funny though but she couldn’t tell why, Itami suddenly looked up as someone big stepped beside them, “Itami, it’s time to go.” A woman’s voice said calmly. Ayako looked up at the woman smiling; she smiled back for a moment then took Itami’s hand pulling her away as Itami waved at Ayako. Ayako smiled at her and waved back looking over at her parents who were talking to themselves. Ayako sat down on the grass and watched the kids play, quickly learning the game, even though she refused to join. It was the beginning of her observatory personality.

Academy Arc:
Ayako was one of the few members of the village who would partake in the Academy test, everyone knew what it was, it would deterime if a person would be able to utilize chakra or attempt to become a ninja without chakra. She was one of the Lucky few who would be able to utilize chakra and because of it, her father and mother decided it would be best for her to go into the academy, they found it extremely interesting since neither of them were ninja themselves.

Ayako didn’t find it that interesting however; she was more interested in life and people’s emotions and feelings. Even so under orders she had to go to the academy, it was required for her to go there. She must complete both Academy student and genin phases before they would even let her think she could live a normal life. She wasn’t very depressed about it; school would be just as troublesome as going to the academy so it wasn’t that big of a difference. Besides maybe she could find out something cool.

The first day of class was rather boring for Ayako, though there was one thing she was interested in, Itami was there. Ayako didn’t attempt to approach her on the first day but hopefully they could train together sometime or something. At the end of class Ayako caught up to Itami who remembered Ayako but Itami didn’t really seem to care, her eyes wandered as she talked and her posture showed that she wasn’t really paying attention to Ayako. Ayako wondered what she was paying attention to and began to look around. Ayako frowned when she saw where Itami’s eyes were constantly looking to. Waving goodbye Ayako headed home, her observatory skills becoming more profound by the moment. Human nature, what was with it?

Genin Arc:
Her parents helped her as best they could without being actual ninja with her training. They taught her determination and discipline in the household and more proper manners. She was more interested in the emotions she hadn’t encountered fully yet however, love, friendship and hatred mostly intrigued her. She was not extremely interested in a shinobi life or the discipline and determination her parents consistantly tried to force upon her, most likely the reason she dresses and acts like a typical 'rebel.'

It might take some time to discover these types of emotions but she is willing to wait. Still she yearned for friendship, she no longer wished to be a bystander, and she wanted something more. She has grown to be more nosey about figuring these things out though and for some you may consider her somewhat like a stalker. Watching people from a distance to observe their actions and to try and understand why. People tend to stay away from her, which she is fine with only a select few can approach her. However she would soon experience one of the few things she hadn't yet, decreasing her list of emotions but she would still need more research on all of the emotions, and she refuses to read books about them she will most likely devote her life to finding emotions and interpreting them.

On a shopping day she was visiting the skirt section of the store, in knowledge that she wouldn't have enough money for anything there but it was still nice to take a look around once in a while. While browsing through the skirt section she heard a muffled noise from a row near her. She went over, her instincts not allowing her to just stay put, she had to see. Sneaking around she spotting a woman and a mans legs the womans inbetween the mans. Ayako stepped back to avoid view and created a small crack between the clothing to see through, her first encounter of greed. The man had the woman on his lap using his arm to molest her and his hand to cup her mouth, while his other hand went to the danger zone. Ayako looked for a moment longer before she felt sickened and led her way up to the front desk telling the worker of the situation and left before the man could reward her. Greed is a terrible thing, it makes monsters of people, the only thing she wrote in her notebook.

---

Sitting in her usual chair at the kitchen table she looked down at her notebook, reading some of the notes she had time for as she waited for her bagel to cook. Suddenly a pop was heard and Ayako looked over at her toaster, she sighed getting up throwing half of the bagel away she spread butter on the single half and lent back against the counter. Her kitchen was pretty nice in the middle it had a small 4 chair table that could extend. Behind the main chair was the door out of the room which beside the door was the big refrigerator. Continuing down that wall there was a rolling cart with her mothers baking tools and several pots and pans, then the corner of the room which turned into a counter that ran the whole way along the wall with Ayako. The sink, drying rack and several cupboards ran along the bottom of the counter and the counter top. There was also the toaster, bread box, microwave and the oven. There were several drawers near Ayako full of silverware and other things that could be placed in drawers. The wall opposite of Ayako opened up into the living room, there was no wall but there was a lot of furniture that separated the two, the couch, a chair and a rocking chair. The wall next to Ayako on her right was bland with a few paintings on it and the doorway to the bathroom.

As Ayako remained standing her thoughts were still stuck in her notebook, well not truly her notebook more of the embarrassed feeling she had yesterday when she walked into someone she knew and her boyfriend kissing. It was an odd feeling walking in and seeing them kissing both fully doing it. Ayako could only wish that she could have something like that with someone but she doubted anyone felt that way towards her. Jealousy was a bad thing but she wouldn't let her jealousy escalate she made sure that it stayed a friendship even if she couldn't get a boyfriend there was no reason her friend couldn't get one, and keep one. Still it hurt Ayako to feel this way... this feeling of being alone even when people cared about her she didn't see their care, she knew the emotion caring very well. It had been one of the first things she experienced with her parents. Ayako sighed as she finished her bagel and grabbed her notebook from table. Walking through the living room to the entrance room and stuffing her shoes on and slinging her pack over her shoulder she headed out.

Exiting the house she looked around it was a quiet day in Suna, it didn't seem like anything big was going to happen today as Ayako began walking down the street she slid her notebook into her pack continuing on her walk through Suna. Maybe something will happen today...
