S-rank
Unlike the ANBU whom patrol the land of Kirigakure, operating within the bounds of the country, keeping both its people and its borders safe. Hunter ninja, need not worry themselves with the plight of the ANBU or their country, living much of their lives outside of Kirigakure as nomads and wanderers, lending themselves out to countries as mercenaries and hunting down bounties as the core export of the village hidden in the mist. Hunter ninja, are an alternate organization standing along side and parallel to Kirigakure no Sato's dedicated ANBU corps, however similar in dealings they can be, Hunter Ninja operate with their own Captains, Commander and their own ranks, fiercely loyal to the Mizukage to the letter of the law, whomever the Mizukage may be at the time. Hunter ninja roam the continents in and out of Kirigakure, forever looking for Missions for both the ryo to make a living, as well as send back to their country to bolster the overall economy of Kirigakure no Sato.
Hunter Ninja are widely known, respected, and feared world-wide for their effective and brutal tactics, as well as their advanced, effective and borderline cruel weaponry. Their weapons ranging from barbed senbon to bombs and even trap-making seals. Above all, they're known as the two faced serpents of the village in the mist, due to their mentality, rumored to completely focus on the letter of their missions, whether it be cutting down the defenseless or turning against even the closest of friends should they find their names written within their list of bounties without thought or hesitation.
NPC Usage
Hunter ninja can be used in any thread in the ninja world where there is an NPC missing ninja or target in order to aid in their capture or elimination. The process of doing so ICly would usually require a message to be sent to a local kirigakure office asking for aid before having the required number of Hunter ninja sent to aid the person, to a maximum of 1 full squad (3 hunter ninja.) Hunter ninja are primarily anti-ninja, but are also trained from sabotage to body-guarding, scouting, spying and even political assassination, these ninja are the highest class of mercenaries and are in no slim number nor short on demand in almost any country.
Hunter Ninja NPC's use the Following Template:
- Hunter Ninja NPC:
Age: 20-45
General Appearance: ANBU-like ninja whom wear coloured tribal masks as opposed to the animal masks of the traditional ANBU, operating in strike teams of up to 5 at a time, though most commonly in threes, hunter ninja wear basic Kirigakure body armour and silken clothing underneath.
Personality: Ruthless and calculated, the hunter ninja of Kirigakure no Sato are not to be trifled with. They strike without fear or mercy due to their training and operate tactically, not burdened with losing emotional control.
Motivations: The furthering of the nation of Kirigakure, as well as various things such as personal pride, fighting for their own families / loved ones etc.
Fears: Many of them have a host of fears, from spiders to dogs on a case by case basis. Many fear death or dying, or the unknown. But all Hunter ninja have had to swallow their fears, and are courageous in their own way, trained and capable to move past their fears unless driven to breaking point over long periods of duress.
Abilities: Kirigakure's Hunter ninja all belong to a clan, each have B-3 rank stats as well as A rank Suiton and B rank of 1 other element. They are able to use all Ninjutsu library techniques as well as library tecniques of those elements, ANBU techniques, academy techniques and clan techniques of their respective clans (including clan libraries). Kirigakure hunter ninja also have classical training in Either Taijutsu OR Bukijutsu of up to A rank, and B rank Ninjutsu.
Other: Kirigakure Hunter ninja are all equipped with a basic ANBU armour and Hunter Ninja Mask as printed in the ANBU / Hunter Ninja sections, as well as a full set of 10 C rank Kunai, 20 D rank Senbon, 1 B rank Fuma Shuriken, 3 B rank Bomb-Tags, a B rank Tanto and a single A rank / 2 B rank Katana (If they have bukijutsu). All of these weapons have the base power of weapons of their rank with the bomb seals capable of creating 15m radius explosions which travel at 25mp/s and are able to deliver moderate third degree burns and fractured bones if the target is within the initial 10m radius.
All variables must be specified when using hunter ninja upon their introduction to a thread. (Clan / Elements Etc.)
Apparel and Equipment
By looks alone, Hunter Ninja are immediately distinct from ANBU save for a few functional similarities. Commonly wearing black with blue trimmed uniforms and armour variants rather than the silver-blue armours and black-brown underlay of normal Kirigakure ninja and ANBU. The Masks of the Hunter Ninja also bearing a few differences, completely featureless aside for the holes made for the eyes, Hunter Ninja masks do not bare the animal features of traditional ANBU. Instead, across the surface of the face of the mask, each mask bears coloured patterns, symbols or designs donning the plain ceramic masks which differ from ninja to ninja, potentially representing a great many personal or practical uses.
By and large however, save for commonly used equipment which were made famous by the Hunter Ninja of Kirigakure, the Armour of the Hunter Ninja is identical to the countries' ANBU save for colour scheme and other small aesthetic quirks which often change from ninja to ninja. Hunter Ninja receive the same Free Armour & B rank item for joining the prestigious group and the free upgrade or A rank item when becoming Commander of the Hunter Ninja.

Application
The Requirements to be met for Attaining Hunter Ninja are Identical to those of ANBU, requiring a special Jounin to have completed 8 missions and pay 2500 ryo. Approval grants all of the perks of the basic ANBU, as well as all jutsu and items.
Conversely to become the Commander of the Hunter Ninja, it requires 10 missions and 3000 ryo. As usual there will be only one Commander Slot for the village.
Alternatively one may simply pay 4500 ryo with Kage approval for either stage so long as you're the appropriate rank.
ANBU members crossing over into the Hunter Ninja and Vice Versa (of the same rank), requires only 1000 Ryo and Kage approval
Perks
When it comes to invasions, due to the much lower density of Hunter Ninja spread out across the ninja world, Hunter Ninja are not able to simply automatically invade the threads of others, and must roll to invade in the countries they are in as per normal. However, due to them being sought out and widely renown for their efficiency, Hunter Ninja receive +15% to the rewards given to them from missions, upgrading to +30% at Commander as per usual with ANBU.
When it comes to training and techniques, unlike their Brothers and Sisters, Hunter Ninja are known to be far more aggressive, as a shadow of Kirigakure's bloody past, they fear nothing. Hunter Ninja track down and eliminate their targets with the fiercest of resolves, each agent is trained in offensive arts, straying from the more balanced path of the ANBU, learning instead a potent variant of the Hidden Mist Technique called the 'Predator Concealing Mist Technique' upon becoming a Hunter Ninja as well as the 'Silent Killing Technique' in order to better stalk and bring down their elusive targets. These two techniques replace the 'peaceful stasis palm' and 'ANBU Barrier' techniques which provide more balanced utility, synonymous with the ANBU corps, but otherwise, Hunter ninja receive all other ANBU techniques Freely as normal.
- Predator Concealing Mist Technique:
Canon/Custom: Canon
Rank: A
Type: Supplementary
Element: Suiton
Range: 30m
Specialty: Hunter Ninja
Duration: Maintainable
Cooldown: Duration +4
Description: Making a single hand gesture and inhaling deeply, the ninja exhales, aiming at the ground at their feet to create a 30m thick and 10m tall mist which expands at 10mp/s with themselves at the epicenter. The mist whites out all vision within its radius as well as making visual sensory techniques which see chakra, and Doujutsu (which do the same) of B rank and lower utterly useless due to the chakra laced nature of the vapour, however A rank Doujutsu / sensory jutsu are able to see 5m away from the user, while an S rank Doujutsu / sensory technique is not inhibited by the mist at all. Additionally, this jutsu clings to the user, following them with an almost ambient and eerie magnetism at 10mp/s until the jutsu ends.

- Silent Killing Technique:
Canon/Custom: Canon
Rank: A
Type: Supplementary
Element: N/A
Range: Self
Specialty: Hunter Ninja
Duration: Maintainable
Cooldown: Duration + 3
Description: (Must be paired with a Stealth Technique.)
If the Hunter Ninja using this technique has obscured themselves from vision with a stealth jutsu, this jutsu allows them to vanish from the other natural human senses (smell, taste, touch, hearing and chakra presence), not leaving a trace of these aspects in the slightest, even obscuring ones footprints after the point of activation as they are attributed to one 'touching' the world around them. This jutsu leaves little other than an ambient yet almost palpable murderous chakra lingering over the discernible area, creating a sense-able killing intent.
However, Silent Killing does not hide the user from sight, meaning that if a ninja is capable of seeing through the stealth technique paired with Silent Killing, this jutsu becomes useless, and little more than a tax on the hunter's chakra.
(The facets of the Silent Killing Technique can be seen through with a Sensory technique of 1 Rank higher than Silent Killing.)
