C-rank
‘Desperation sharpens the talons of the raptor, the canines of the tiger, and the wit of a fool.’
”Well... you see, I just don't know when to give up. Does that scare you?" Maybe it would have provoked others, but Yasu didn’t mind fear. Fear made you smart. Fear kept you safe. Yasu smiled a little from upon his perch. Adrenaline was one of his greatest fears. Once people got a hit of it they became leagues more competent, and their pain thresholds increased by magnitudes, but he highly doubted this was one of those cases.
His clone had its back ‘pressed’(as he is intangible it’s more like his body forms to fit around the pillar, but you know) to the pillar in the moments before he noticed a form appear in the fog as he had continued to watch for Fuyuko like he’d been doing just before. While he surveyed, he would notice the form seemed to be getting closer, correction, it was definitely going in for an attack on him. The puppet’s hands would launch into the air on to the surface of the pillar that his back was pressed to.
The Fuyuko that attacked him seemed to aim to punch through him, attacking even knowing that this would cause her to disapear. The clone would feel like she had swung through air as she contacted the stone behind Yasu’s clone, and that would be because she in fact did. The issue with swinging and aiming behind your opponent as Fuyuko did before and as the clone did this time, as it swung with no regards to its own safety, was that it was easy to overcommit. As the clone approached the puppet would pull itself straight up with the tips of its fingers, imitating the Supernatural Walking Practice, squeezing its knees to its chest as it lifted itself over the clone that attempted a strike at it.
The Fuyuko beneath him, obviously not being the real one, would swing past where he had been into the stone pillar behind him. An act which would cause it to explode in smoke. The signal that Fuyuko was waiting for, the singular poof that would be made from two clones colliding. The puppet didn’t wait though, the moment it cleared the other clone, it would lift its body perpendicular to the pillar, and fo a singular backwards cartwheel to the other side to avoid any follow ups the now dispelled clone was incapable of making.
“I normally would be, but it is hard for me to believe you. You are just like the rest, just like the ninja who betray their village running away from danger at the first sign of a fight, just like those who glassed Sunagakure, just like every other chakra using, kunai wielder who thinks they understand what the word Ninja means!” The clone would now shout. As he hid on the the side of the pillar that was opposite to where he’d been attacked he continued, “You all are cowards who maim, murder, steal from, and manipulate only those you think you are better than. I’m here to represent the meek though.”
[Footnote]Almost randomly, the real Yasu would see motion to his side and would notice a Fuyuko shaped form jump into the air. It had the same stature and body shape, but was weilding two kunai (the ones she was going to throw at the clone). Though it was probably just bait he would project the trajectory in his head. ‘Hhmm,’ he’d think to himself. For a moment time seemed to freeze as he looked at her decelerating so she peaked almost at his eye level, it was almost like she had jumped to see what was at the top of this pillar specifically, out of all of the pillars. No matter.
As time caught up with his brain, he would wait until she reached the peak of her jump before he would lace Fuyuko like a pair of shoes (Though he’d never actually laced shoes before since he doesn’t wear them). Starting from the peak of her fall, for the next 7 meters he would activate his water scalpel and zig-zag his right hand as fast as he could manage following her down, trying to keep a mental picture of her center of gravity. Any strike that connected would deliver 3/4 inch cuts on her body. All the while anticipating an attack following the line of his water, he would be shifting slightly to make his placement difficult to predict. [/footnote]
He’d then jump lightly to the next pillar further from where he’d left Ogre- 5 meters away and a half meter taller than the last- his soft, fleshy, and bare feet padding his landing. Simultaneously with him jumping, his clone would jump onto the pillar his creator had just occupied, shouting to obscure any already small sound his creator’s feet might have made. To any potential onlooker, this one might as well be the real one. “I don’t fight because I think I can win! I don’t act because I think there won’t be consequences! I fight because I must! I will meet with those who hold sway over the villages, and they will come and aid the place I call home!” The clone would stand defiantly as he gave a speech meant mostly to distract, rather than to reveal anything about himself, though there was truth to be found in it. After all, ninja weren’t supposed to wear their heart on their sleeve. Both he and Yasu making the hand seals for the reinforcement technique again and preparing to use them.
[Footnote]Ooc: it is a little confusing to me who jumps here. If it was the clone it would be dispelled, as she claims that her character aims behind the target and seems the clone was recklessly punching (it knew such an act would end its life). Yasu -the clone- was also right up on the pillar. Therefor, under those conditions, ignore the footnoted stuffs.
If it was the actual Fuyuko, which is how it read to me, Yasu’s gonna dice her up as he would still have an actual target to perceive and swing at.

- Name: Sand Stalker Puppet - Ogre
Rank: C
Primary Use: Defensive | Support
Description:- Ogre:
Modifications and Weapons:- Storage Unit:
- Name: Storage Unit
Type of Item: Chassis Modification
Rank: D
Elemental Alignment: None
Quantity: 1
Ability/Function: This modification hollows out the insides of the Ogre giving him the ability to hold a person or objects within. The puppet can "breathe" to release air or other vapors from inside or to intake new vapors (preferably air) by unsealing the cavity from what is effectively its windpipe. Conversely it can "hold its breath" sealing the cavity once more. For those who know about the storage area, it is rather easy to break out of, requiring a basic strike or jutsu of any rank. This cavity opens and closes from the back.
Appearance: This cramped space is a cylinder approximate 2 and a half feet wide and three feet tall. It is smooth on the inside and tightly sealed. Two tubes with teeny fans in them extend up to Ogre's nose and mouth, and are two inches in diameter and four inches respectively. "Storage Unit" can hold 8 minutes worth of breathable air, and half as much with a person inside. Its wall are four inches thick.
History: Sometimes you need a hidey hole.
- Sword?:
Name: "Sword?"
Type of Armor: Heavy
Rank: C
Elemental Alignment:None
Quantity:1
Protection:This shield can block all basic attacks (kunai, swords, punches) and make them negligible if they are 2 ranks lower than the armor; that is, provided the area the attack hit was protected by the armor. Basic attacks of equal rank or below do 2 ranks less in damage, and such strikes of 1 rank higher do 1 rank less in damage. Any strikes of 2 ranks higher than the armor bypass its defensive abilities entirely.
Ability/Function: “Sword” is effectively a shield.
Appearance: A really, really big chunk of rock that Ogre keeps strapped to his back.
History: Every ogre needs a club.

- Spoiler:
- Name: Water Scalpel
Type Of Weapon: High Pressure Water Hose/ Chassis mod
Rank: D
Elemental Alignment: None
Quantity: 1
Ability/Function: This weapon pulls from reserves of water stored within Yasubei’s chest in order to send out a thin string-like beam of water from either or both of his palms. Alternatively he can shoot the water from just his mouth. This concentrated stream of water can pierce up to 3/4 of an inch into flesh or (cut if it is moving). The water blast out of Yasubei at a rate of up to 11 m/s to a maximum distance of 20 meters. This thin powerful stream of water can easily pierce through a single technique of E rank.
The liquid needed for this mod is stored in Yasubei’s “lungs” which can each hold 3 liters. At the start of the thread they each hold three liters of regular water. Each post that Yasubei uses this mod reduces his reserves by one liter per hose being used.
Alternatively Yasubei can expunge 3 liters of liquid out of his mouth for a single post at a rate of 15 m/s in a 4 m diameter, 4 m long cone that does nothing but soak the area and anything in it in the stored liquid.
The water used by this mod can either be replaced by ambient liquids in the environment by using either hand at a rate of one liter per hand per post, his mouth for three liters per post, or via jutsu. This can be done with simultaneously with any of the above abilities so long as one body part isn’t performing multiple jobs. (Ex: It isn’t possible to absorb and shoot with one hand, but such a feat could be performed with two.)
Appearance: When coming out of his mouth this weapon looks like a water jutsu’s being used. When coming out of his hands a small hole opens up in the center of them.
History: Water is a very versatile tool as easily displayed by this weapon.
Charges: 1/3
+ Locker Items: 3 Scrolls + Starter Items
