~ Seichirō Roga
 
Seichirō n'a pas pu traiter ce qui a conduit au chaos qui s'en est suivi assez rapidement. Tout ce qu'il pouvait se rappeler, c'était de sentir un changement dans le langage corporel d'Akumako, puis un coup fort qui éclatait du plafond, l'amenant à croire qu'ils étaient agressés, et à juste titre. Il est sorti de son siège et a rapidement pris une position défensive, sa main droite atteignant Yin qui était gainé sur son dos. Il y a eu un bref moment d'horreur de sa part car il sentait que son torse et sa zone d'entrejambe étaient devenus humides et qu'il trompait son cerveau en pensant qu'il saignait. Cela a rapidement été exhalé par un soupir de soulagement une fois qu'il a été positif que l'humidité est venue des cupcakes qui a été éclaboussé tout autour.
Il fallait le voir croire, mais pendant son tantrum, Akumako a effectivement commencé à avoir un sens et Seichirō ne pouvait s'empêcher d'être d'accord avec tous ses points, à tel point qu'il soupçonnait momentanément qu'il était sous un genjutsu. Il a été prouvé faux une fois qu'elle a révélé que c'était en fait quelque chose qu'elle a mémorisé. L'adolescente Roga a laissé sortir un soupir, un mélange d'exaspération et de soulagement surgissant son corps. C'était au-delà de lui comment elle pouvait tirer des trucs fous comme ça tout en gardant un visage droit. Jusqu'à présent, sa théorie dominante était qu'elle était née quelques mois plus tôt, prématurément pour ainsi dire. Expliquer son comportement erratique bien, et il avait le bonus supplémentaire de justifier sa petite construction. Au fur et à mesure qu'elle continuait à draguer, Seichirō choisit soigneusement tous les morceaux de gâteau dans son t-shirt blanc et certains de ses pantalons. Il était reconnaissant qu'il portait ses vêtements d'arrêt. Sa tenue de combat est une salope quand il s'agit de la laver. Il a prêté une attention particulière à ce qu'Akumako disait, sinon il aurait manqué la partie quand elle lui a posé des questions sur ses forces.
"Akumako.", a-t-il dit, sa tête pendait bas alors qu'il cherchait d'autres zones tachées sur son front. Il a choisi de laisser tomber le suffixe. Si elle était assez intelligente pour voir à travers ses conneries, alors il était temps pour lui d'être direct..mais pas hostile. C'était une très bonne décision, considérant qu'il manipulait quelqu'un qui était prêt à mettre en place des étiquettes explosives pour le bien de la théâtralité.
"..ne refais pas ça." Il a redirigé sa vue vers elle, cette fois sous la forme d'un schowl. Il était un peu énervé contre son théâtre, mais il était aussi un Roga. Sa roue tournante d'émotions n'avait pas beaucoup d'options dedans.
"Quant à ce que je peux faire, le kekkei genkai de mon clan s'appelle Entotsu. C'est la capacité de transformer les parties du corps, individuellement ou collectivement, en fumée. » Avec cela dit, Seichirō a levé sa paume. Dans un instant, la main s'est transformée en petite bouffée de fumée. Il ressemblait à de la fumée habituelle, cependant, lors d'une inspection plus étroite, il avait une teinte un peu brun foncé à elle qui a également rendu facile de l'erreur pour la poussière.
"Mais sur les choses importantes." Il a jeté un coup d'œil à Maema, sa main retournant occasionnellement à sa forme organique. "Je suppose que vous pouvez faire des attaques concentrées avec votre libération de Mercure? C'est une capacité précieuse, ne vous méprenez pas, mais il y aura une foule énorme de personnes pendant le jour de Hamajo, surtout autour de la statue." Il s'est souvenu de son dernier voyage à Amegakure, il y a environ deux ans. Sa mère l'a forcé à se joindre à elle et à ses cousins pendant la célébration, à sa grande consternation. « Nous ne pouvons pas permettre de gaspiller accidentellement les civils, d'autant plus que la mission est de nature. » Seichirō n'avait aucune idée de ce que l'étiquette Senihime donnait à l'opération de la journée Hamajo, mais il savait que c'était une cascade publicitaire. Si c'était bien fait, cela renforcerait le soutien du public aux Jiyutai et obligerait la Confédération à les prendre au sérieux. Il ne savait toujours pas si ce dernier était une bonne ou une mauvaise chose.
Il a regardé en arrière à Akumako, bien que ce qu'il était sur le point de dire était d'importance pour les deux parties. "Si ça ne vous dérange pas, je vais me charger de formuler un plan. J'ai encore besoin de voir de quoi tu es capable, mais je pense que j'ai un aperçu de ça. ", a-t-il donné un coup de pied à l'une des planches de bois brisées dans la direction d'Akumako. "Je ne vous sous-estime pas. Je me glorifie tout simplement. Mon clan a été le sous-chien dans chaque combat qu'ils ont participé. Ils ont dû faire face à des menaces extérieures bien au-delà de leur compréhension, et ils ont survécu. Bien sûr, ils sont décimés maintenant, mais c'est une histoire en soi et c'est totalement sans rapport avec le point que j'essaie de faire."
Sa bouche courbée vers le haut involontairement alors qu'il tirait un coup d'œil sur le plafond détruit. De retour à Konoha, il n'a jamais eu le courage de prendre en charge les équipes qui lui ont été assignées, mais il a estimé que son expertise était vraiment nécessaire. Akumako était aussi perspicace qu'un mur de briques. Maema semblait très... pas intéressé. A moins que Senihime ne décide d'entrer dans la microgestion, il était leur seul espoir. En dépit d'avoir totalement massacré son discours, Seichirō était fier d'avoir pris l'initiative. Et il n'y avait pas de retour en arrière maintenant.
« Mon point de vue est : je peux diriger ceci. Mon clan est devenu capable de faire des plans par nécessité. Comme vous l'aviez vu plus tôt, notre kekkei genkai n'est vraiment pas utile si tout se résume à une confrontation, donc nous faisons avec ce que nous avons. Je peux parler à Tsukiko-sama au sujet de son approche et nous pouvons coordonner avec l'équipe de sécurité du périmètre. Nous avons deux semaines pour nous préparer. Je parie qu'ils suffisent.", il a fini, ses yeux alternant entre Kuko et Maema. Il était certain que Kuko s'était espacé à un moment donné, mais il ne s'en souciait pas. Il était plus intéressé de voir si Maema était à bord, croyant qu'il était le plus raisonnable. La perspective de converser avec l'ancien commandant de Konohagakure était une tâche redoutable en soi, mais Seichirō a pensé que tant qu'il resterait professionnel, elle ne lui pousserait pas une lame dans la gorge.

Appearance Descriptions
As compiled on basis of the 11th corps intelligence gathering, including pictures
❖  Appearance--
Seichirō's facial features tell the tale of an unconventional allure. His green eyes, accompanied by a rather tanned skin complexion are a recipe for a lifetime of bullying and image issues, but somehow they work on him. He also has a scar that intercepts the bridge of his nose and touches upon his cheeks, a reminder of his childhood shenanigans. So far, the young Roga has experimented with two different hairstyles - the overgrown, messy one that's depicted in the picture, and an undercut. He mostly prefers the latter.
Seichirō's body is lean with a slight muscle definition, as expected from a chūnin-level shinobi. He has tattoos similar to one another in his biceps - they depict daggers, or at least that's what he was led to believe. He doesn't always cover his arms with bandages, only when there is a risk that he could be identified. He favors casual clothing when he's not in a mission, ranging from jeans to sweatpants to loose-fitting shirts. When on duty, he utilizes that same red combat suit that's shown above, maybe with minor changes . He sports a pair of black boots, designed to be light in weight so as to make traversing through different areas a chore. His footwear when off duty consists of sandals or sneakers, depending on the weather. You may also occasionally catch him rocking a beanie.

❖  Height--
5'11/1,79 meters
❖  Weight--
141 ibs/64 kg
❖  Build--

Seichirō's muscle mass is barely noticeable, if even existent. He is lean, he is ripped, all part of his grueling shinobi training. However, none of these features can be detected by the naked eye, especially since he buries himself under a pile of clothes. One noticeable trait are his calves. They're very muscular, almost solid and very veiny. The veins pop out especially when he's doing legwork. This is due to the fact that the young Roga prefers to stray away from using his kekkei genkai (because of hazards that are further elaborated in the kekkei genkai section), and has to employ extra physical effort in order to dodge oncoming attacks and travel through different places.

❖  Personality --
Because of the Roga Clan's reputation, or lack of reputation thereof, their members are rather low on enthusiasm and appear to be indifferent to their own village and the province as a whole. Some have taken it as far as spreading rumors they're antagonizing the governing body. As true as that may be, that is not the case with Seichirō. Even though his cynicism and ruthlessness have been genetically transmitted to him by his ancestors, he is a rather affectionate and friendly person, relatively speaking. He doesn't bolt at the opportunity of forming bonds, but he appreciates the ones he has successfully made over the years.
Another feature that makes him unique from his own clan members is his ambition. His dreams of single handedly undoing decades of oppression and neglect are very unrealistic considering the circumstances, but even then, Seichirō approaches the subject matter with such a healthy dose of pragmatism that it actually makes you believe he's gonna someday do it. It's not to say that his clan's poor social standing has not affected his psyche. It actually has done terrible things to his self-confidence. His impressive intellect has enabled him to construct a variety of different, working plans and solutions to different situations. However, nine times out of ten, he's kept those out of public sight, fearing someone might sneer in his face.
Seichirō's insecurities do not manifest themselves as they do with most. He's not shy and bookish; he's rather fierce and talkative. He also employs sarcasm, which started as a defense mechanism and soon evolved into a form of psychological combat. He never misses a chance to toss over an armor piercing taunt towards his opponents while he is very careful to keep those to a minimum when with friends or colleagues.
The young Roga has no pronounced verbal tics, but he does use endearing terms like "cupcake", "sweet pea", "muffin" and other nouns as part of what he likes to call "mother talk". He rarely uses these to display affection and they're mostly there to highlight his sarcastic personality. He is rather analytical, off and on duty and his observation skills are way above average. He is not one to punch above his weight, knowing when and when not to go for a retreat.
❖  History--
Seichirō was born in November 5th on the grounds of the Roga Estate, north of Konoha, following a birth characterized by several complications. It took 37 hours for baby Roga to make the decision to leave the womb, a decision which he regrets to this day. While they haven't been vocal, the strained birth could very well be what made his parents opt to say NO to more children, even though they were pretty young at the time and had an entire life ahead of them. Growing up, he was not the most energetic kid in the neighborhood. His mother, Tomori, never had any trouble with putting him to a beauty sleep, much to the envy of her friends and peers. As such, both his parents took his mature behavior for granted and never bothered to supervise him. And eventually that backfired.
He was five years old at the time. His father came home from work and tossed over all his equipment on a corner. He wasn't sure why, but the kunai knife which was visible in his bag touched a string in his childish mind and he went for it. The Roga household rumbled with the shrieks of kid Seichirō. He had inadvertently caused himself great pain, a gash expanding from his nose, blood gushing down his torso. It was an ugly sight to behold. From there on, his parents switched up their methods to another extreme. They employed helicopter parenting. Whenever Seichirō went, he either had his mother, his father or a clan member chaperoning him.
Seichirō was seven when the Konoha province was annexed within the borders of The Hamajo Confederation. Even then, he had an inner gut feeling that something bad had happened, but he couldn't just quite place it. He noticed his father was acting shifty and, in an uncharacteristic act of rebellion, used his smoke ability to sneak on his parent's bedroom closet. There, he would listen on as Ryosuke would reveal he had lost his job because of the change in power. The Hamajo Confederation saw the Roga as useless and stripped them off from that little influence they had on the village. The child Roga couldn't associate the news with anything bad, as life on the village continued without much interruption. Sure, there were different politicians spewing their crap on TV, but he was seven at the time - he couldn't care less about which miserable pencil neck lost their job. He only realized what his father's backroom conversation meant when he reached genin-level. He even swears he heard a penny drop in the middle of his classroom when that suddenly dawned on him.
Ryosuke's demotion meant he could spend more time with his son. He was still a high ranking member of the Roga Clan, but they had run out of business. The thing with Ryosuke was; he wasn't the most talkative. His quality father-son time practically equaled to him reading a newspaper while Seichirō went on about his business. As such, Seichirō grew up to be socially awkward and didn't quite have a firm grasp of human decency and basic ethics. He had to learn most of those himself. A notable moment was his last fight during the Chūnin Exams. He had his opponent on a choke hold and, in a a move that shocked the entire audience, he brutally dislocated the guy's jaw, believing that's what must be done. The unison cheers coming to a sudden halt, the looks of horror he got from the crowds and the proctor; it made him realize that he was making a mistake. Thankfully, his adversary had actually used a substitution jutsu. His reckless move also won him the fight, intimidating his cowardly opponent. Seichirō won by forfeit.
Though he never cared about The Hamajo Confederation, Seichirō chose to affiliate himself with them out of necessity. Because the Confederation had the upper hand in their battle against the emerging rebel faction Jiyuna no Guntai, it was natural to assume that the upcoming, inevitable war would end on their terms. Seichirō was gambling on that. He didn't want Konohagakure to get caught up in a crossfire. He wanted to protect his family. While his ideals remained more or less the same, his allegiance took a U turn three weeks after his 18th birthday. Tired of The Hamajo's bias towards more successful and renowned clans like the Hyuga and The Uchiha, the Roga chūnin packed enough clothes for a month and food that would last him for a week. He had decided that the only way his clan was going to thrive was with The Confederation out of the picture. He was forced to tell his father about his defection when he got caught red-handed. Ryosuke initially disapproved of his rash decision, but reluctantly came to terms with it in the end, nonetheless praising his only son for taking such a huge leap of faith, one that few Rogas ever dared to make. He was also briefed by Ryosuke about the 11th Corps and his suspicions that their current objectives are to cleanse anti-Hamajo sentiment.
Seichirō, in order to protect his clan and his family from government scrutiny, gave his Dad the permission to report him as a rogue-nin before leaving the village's borders. Two days later, he found his name in the Bingo book with a bounty of 2,300 ryo attached to it. He was deeply offended. If anything, he had hoped his life would be worth more. A week later, he joined the Jiyutai. He chose to keep his unsolicited love for his village and his indifference for the Jiyutai's cause out of the prying ears of his new teammates, dreading the day in which Konoha will be an obstacle in their violent and impulsive aspirations.
❖  Familial ties--
Seichirō's family is dysfunctional by outside world standards, but perfectly functional within the behavior range of the Roga. His father's passive and makes every word count. His mother's the opposite. Regardless, Seichirō loves both of them, and he is certain that they feel the same. Any parental neglect in the past was mainly due to their inexperience in raising a child and their obligations with other duties.
Ryosuke Roga | Biological Father | 40, Apartment in the middle of Konoha, A prominent member within the Roga Clan. Previously in charge of security in the Hokage's office.
Tomori Roga | Biological Mother | 37, Apartment in the middle of Konoha, Housewife and Seichirō's worst nightmare.
❖  Dreams, short term goals, and fears.--
Seichirō dreams and fears are both related to the bonds he's made over the years. He dreams of one day giving his clan the glory it deserves, in spite of being told by his own peers that it's an impossible task to complete. His fears are categorized in three layers and are closely tied to the flawed relationships he's constructed with others - fear about his village; history has proven Konoha to be the most targeted village out of the bunch. Fear about his clan - he believes that his effort to restore his clan will go in vain or even worse, backfire. The Roga Clan is considered to be half past dead either way. It would take one push for it to disappear in obscurity.
The final fear, the third layer, is the fear for his family. As dysfunctional as his little family may seem, he does love and value them even though he would never admit to that in public.
But, as a wise man said ~ one step at a time. Seichirō's primary goal for now is to drive Hamajo's influence out of The Konoha province.

Combat reports
Gathered based on exercises, training routines, and combat experience reports
❖  Combat style--
Seichirō's modus operandi is kenjutsu, but he's no slouch at hand to hand combat either. Since his kekkei genkai brings forth a plethora of health hazards, he refuses to use it unless necessary. He's very analytical and never attacks first. He believes that whoever attacks first is bound to reveal a susceptible spot much quicker than one who waits. If he does find that weakness, in whatever shape it may be (a blind spot, a recharge period), he will put pressure in it until his strategy begins working. He also has a counter-tactic to his own strategy, being able to switch his style with the flick of a finger.
The young Roga's only defense, however, is his own agility. He lacks the physical power or the array of weapons to defend against attacks and mostly opts to dodge them rather than take them head on. 
❖  Kekkei Genkai--
❖ Name
Entotsu
❖ Description
When activated, the technique enables the user to convert his body to smoke. Skilled users can manipulate only certain body parts. If, for example, a user manipulates every part of his body besides his head, it'll seem like his head is floating in a puff of brown smoke underneath. If the user turns his entire body to smoke, then the majority of the time, there will be no discernible trait that can separate it from normal smoke or dust.
❖ Strengths
When in smoke form, the user is basically impervious to physical attacks, most forms of genjutsu or concentrated short and long range jutsus. Types of genjutsu which he's not immune to are those transmitted via the sense of smell or hearing. He can be put under genjutsu in that form by intruding his chakra pathways, although doing that would require the use of a Byakugan or another type of VERY exact sensory perception, as his chakra points would be in a total disarray. He can enter an area that's out of his reach by slipping through the cracks, making it invaluable for infiltration and espionage. When in full smoke mode the user cannot see, but rather they can navigate by tracking chakra signatures. 
❖ Weaknesses
Aside from the KG being reliant on chakra, it can also be very harmful to the user. If the user's hit by a powerful long range jutsu Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet], or especially a wind release attack that spreads out on a wide radius, the resulting damage could be the cause of limb loss and/or certain death. Long story short, any strong attack that can disperse smoke is fatal.

❖ Custom techniques
■ Name
Smoke Release: Deadly Pellet Incursion Technique
■ Rank
B
■ Range
Long
■ Description
In order for the technique to work, the user must be in their smoke mode and because of that, it doesn't require any hand weaving.. It'll take one post for the user to transform into a dust orb and pool all his chakra in one singe point. Once that's done and if done right, the user will be able to fire themselves while in smoke form at an incredible velocity. The technique can be launched at an impressive range of 15 meters, at which point the user will revert back to their organic form. The human smoke pellet has such a high intensity that it can pierce through dense concrete. 
■ Name
Smoke Release: Sentient Wall Technique
■ Rank
C
■ Range
Short
■ Description
In a similar fashion to the Earth Wall technique, the user creates a wall in front of him. However, when in tandem with Entotsu, Roga Clan members can become one with the wall. There will be small, barely noticeable dust particles around the wall when that happens. Aside from that, you can't tell the difference without a Byakugan or without another type of sensory perception. In order for the user to grab on an unsuspecting enemy, they must first release themselves from the wall while in smoke form and then turn into their organic form, as they are unable to use physical attacks that way. Like with the Pellet Incursion technique, the user doesn't need to weave signs. For the technique to work, the user must turn into smoke completely and not simply manipulate certain parts of their body. 
■ Name
Smoke Release: Detachable Limbs Technique
■ Rank
C
■ Range
Long
■ Description
If the user only manipulates their arm while their hand is still in it's organic state, then they can launch it in whatever direction they want. Same goes with with their other limbs, like their legs or hell, even their neck. The technique however is labeled as a kinjutsu because of the risks that come along with it. A worst case scenario would be if the user launches a punch; if their punch is blocked, then their hand will be permanently detached from the rest of his body. Roga Clan members are strictly advised to only use it for grappling or rescue situations. The technique has a range of 15 meters. Like the other previous two, this technique requires no hand signs.
❖ Weaponry and tools
■ Name
Yin and Yang
■ Weapon/tool type
Dual swords
■ Range
Medium
■ Description
Due to his over reliance on sword fighting, Seichirō always carries two swords, each with a length less than 60 cms. They're light and practical to use, perfectly conforming to his combat style. In order to tell which is which, Yin's handle is clad in bandages. 
■ Name
Weapon Scrolls
■ Weapon/tool type
Scroll...of weapons.
■ Range
Long
■ Description
Seichirō employs two weapon scrolls, each carrying four windmill shuriken which he can directly deploy in combat upon completing the necessary hand ritual.


【Clan Name】
Roga
【Customs】
The Roga never had any traditions to begin with. They were always one of the few lesser known clans operating in The Land of Fire (and then later, the Konoha Province) and as such, they saw no benefit in creating a prideful facade driven by strict conventions and rules, like the Hyuuga or The Nara. Because of that, they also lost a lot of members, inadvertently creating a fluid chain of command. While the top ranking members of the clan are easily distinguishable, there is no definitive leader. They often used to hold meetings to discuss their operations, however now that they've all mostly ceased, so have those meetings. 
【Special Traits】
The male Roga are characterized by dark brown hair, a massive height and a light tan skin complexion. Their eyes can range from a dark green to a hazel color. Over the years, the major growth spur has become such an issue that the Roga are continuously coaxed to marry into a family where short stature's the norm, believing that their offspring will have a suitable height.
The female Roga are characterized by auburn hair, average height and a light tan or a pale complexion. Their eyes can range from a light green to a darker shade of green. It's also not uncommon for some of them to be born with black bags under their eyes, a natural trait that's often mistaken to be a result of insomnia.
The clan's kekkei genkai is Entotsu, also known as the ability to transform their own body parts (individually or collectively) in smoke. 
【Influences】
Before The Hamajo Confederation took over, the Roga Clan had some influence in the military and intelligence community of Konoha. Because their kekkei genkai was an invaluable tool when it came to intelligence gathering, they often supplied the ANBU Black Ops with recruits. Their cooperation with the dark side of Konoha continued even after ANBU was disbanded and rebranded as 11th Corps. Skilled members of the clan also provided security for The Hokage, some even spearheading a special platoon that oversaw security in the Hokage estate. And that's as far as their influence reached. Their social standing and reputation as a bastard clan made it impossible for them to penetrate in the field of politics or even advance further in the military hierarchy.
Things got even worse in the coming years. With The Hamajo Confederation quickly usurping the ruler's seat, the Roga were deemed as unworthy and were relieved off their duties. The news hit the clan hard, but they had no other choice but to comply. However, their enemies took advantage of their downfall and the Confederation's iron fist rule to spread out false rumors concerning a rebellion that was to be led by the clan. Many of their members were imprisoned or executed and it took around two years of diplomacy for the Confederation to finally stop breathing down their neck. Due to their passive behavior, most of them remained within the confinements of the province.
Their primary means of business right now is providing security for a shipping company in the Land of Waves. Their jobs are not ideal and the pay's below average, but it's a living. 
【Relations】

The Roga Clan has been affiliated with numerous other clans during the years, however their alliances were mostly circumstantial and were quickly put to an end when whatever issue they were dealing with was resolved. One could say that their longest-running alliance was with the Konoha government. They also had and still to this day have their fair share of enemies, although said enemies mostly consist of separatists and common criminals. They never engaged in a feud with any other clan.

【History】
It is widely believed that what became the Roga Clan was actually a group of traveling nomads from The Land of Snow, around 200 years ago. Documents pertaining to the clan's history are scarce and largely inconsistent, but the clan's believed to be a derivative one. Based on their kekkei genkai and their affinity for wind and fire release, coupled with a number of scrolls that hint towards that, the clan's ancestry can be traced back to the Sarutobi and the Iburi clan. Even so, the clan has never been able to replicate the success of the Sarutobi clan, or spread out their influence around the region. They were at their pinnacle when they established a link with the ANBU, and officially, their most successful ninja were jōnin-level which took up low-ranked jobs around the village.
The Roga continued to serve under the village's mantle for quite a few years, participating in several silent wars and performing odd jobs for the benefit of the leading cabinet. However, when things got too heavy, they always took the backseat, not because they wanted to, but because they were strictly instructed to do so. And they complied. Their submissive traits make the Roga an easy target to manipulate, and even though their desire to be recognized has faded, they are still ready to latch onto anything that they believe will put them on the map, no matter how shifty it may seem. They would never do anything criminal with intention, though.
An interesting tidbit about the clan; they favor the color red and often wear different variants of it while in mission. That's because they believe it's a great representation of the Roga's fierce and ruthless battle tactics, and perfectly contrast their everyday phlegmatic temperament.
That being said, there were a select few of the Roga who took the path of insubordination, specifically a certain Kouhaku Roga, around 22 years ago. He was gathering an army to overthrow the Konohagakure government, and would have even succeeded if other members of the clan didn't find out about his plan soon enough. Since the clan helped in stopping his scheme, the Hokage agreed to keep the event a secret out of fear that it would decimate the clan's reputation even more. Little did they know.
With The Hamajo Confederation now as the leading power, the Rogas have stooped quite low. Leading members of the Roga clan have been quick to defect, and those who haven't defected have left the estate, effectively isolating themselves from the clan's practices. The clan's separation and perhaps even extinction is imminent.
