Maema Nisshoku
L'heure de la grève est venue!
 Maema se tenait à côté de Roga, une expression détachée figée sur son visage. Il était évident qu'il feignait une sorte de désintéressement ludique dans la situation. Il s'agissait d'une compétence, celle d'exsoudre le calme dans des situations hyper-agressives. À l'extérieur, c'était efficace. À l'intérieur, Maema commençait à penser que c'était un stratagème inutile. Une tempête a rempli son être. La peur, l'anxiété, et un peu d'excitation roulée et enroulée à l'intérieur. Ses bras tremblaient d'anticipation.
Le moment où Senhime les a présentés avec leurs "chariotes" Maema est descendue vers le bas. Son smirk s'étaitompé dans une mince ligne de découverte analytique sans présupposer alors qu'il accédait à la situation. Ses sandales ont tapé sur le sol. Au moment où ils l'ont fait, il a remarqué que Roga avait engagé un ennemi et Akumako avec un autre. Un homme en uniforme s'approcha de Maema de son côté, recevant un regard apathique en retour.
L'odeur du bois dérive dans l'air. Maema s'est rendu compte qu'il provenait du personnel à peu près entaché dans les mains de l'opposition ou peut-être que l'odeur l'avait taché perpétuellement. Le ninja à l'aspect plutôt moyen tenait une confiance dans ses yeux et un sourire frivole sur son visage.
Maema avait l'impression qu'il parlait.
 D'habitude, je ne suis pas en train de frapper les filles, mais je peux faire une exception pour vous.
Maema rétrécit les yeux durement à l'homme avant de tomber sur la relique qu'il appela un fourreau. Pour une raison quelconque, cet acte semblait être le catalyseur de la bataille prédestinée. L'homme se précipita vers lui en tournant le bâton éparpillé dans ses mains avec finesse. Avec une retraite calculée Maema bondit en arrière, débranche son fourreau de sa place sur son côté, et rebondit l'homme attaque précipitamment de la gaine robuste. Dans le même moment, l'ennemi a contre nature tordu son corps, et fouetté le fourreau avec le bâton trois fois. Derrière ce cadre mince était une moxie profonde, il valait presque la peine d'avoir combattu le jeune guerrier. Maema avait été rappelé que la chance prodigieuse n'était pas toujours la clé de la victoire, cette compétence de l'homme allait le forcer à utiliser son Kekkei-Tota.
Le temps d'attaquer lui a été imposé quand l'homme s'est avéré être implacable. Le shinobi a plié le staff comme du caoutchouc et l'a poignardé comme si c'était une lance. C'était un peu accablant. Le moment où Maema a glissé une ouverture à l'attaque, le shinobi a hésité et est devenu inconfortable. Il clignait avant de continuer son action; Maema voulut Kusari (les halos, argentés, ovales et les vrilles qui vivaient à l'intérieur) pour empaler, désarmer et égorger sauvagement l'homme dans le sol.
Un gémissement sifflait dans l'air de l'adversaire sujet, dans le même cas l'ovale de mercure clignait hors de l'existence. Maema s'est détaché un peu de sa mâchoire tendue.  C'est un idiot, il a prononcé, son fourreau à la main. Un moment de répit fut interrompu quand il sentit quelqu'un le regarder. Il regarda dans la direction de Roga. La combinaison de combat rouge du gars était flashy si rien d'autre et son harcelage ou préoccupation a été rencontré par un clin d'œil dur.

Appearance Descriptions
As compiled on basis of the 11th corps intelligence gathering, including pictures
❖  Appearance--
 Genetics, time, and training has honed him into a handsome looking male. Naturally Maema dons his clothing in hopes of being prepared for combat at any time. He’s accustomed to wearing tshirts of varying colors underneath different types of outerwear (usually some form of gakuren). Darker hued trousers fall over his legs, while a deep blue sash ties around his waist. Unnaturally black haidate pieces--lined with gold--protects his thighs. Off-duty he’s more or less the same. He doesn’t feel the need to be fashionable so he can come off as rugged and simple. Either way he’s always wearing the same ankle-high, heavy-duty sandals. A optimal mixture between combat boots and ninjawear. A cherished item flows under both his sash and haidate, a mantle of sorts colored crimson with gold fringes lining its edges.
His face is in conflict with the roughcast of his body. Where lean, hard muscle are pressed tight between necessary fat and skin on his body; his face is kinda of long and elegant. The only fierce part to his face is the sharpness of his golden eyes, hidden behind his dull expression.
Maema’s body has been honed for mobility and strength, to soak up and adapt to predictable disturbances on the battlefield. His form looks unimpressive in clothing, however, beneath said clothes the muscles behind the skin are visible. Four highly developed abs fall into a flat stomach as if the rest were abandoned. The lower half of his legs are thin in appearance, making the top half seem bulky in comparison.
❖  Height--
5’9”/ 1.75m
❖  Weight--
153lbs/69kg
❖  Build--
Maema is made up of lean muscle, his physique shows this rather well. His mass is dominant in his torso and arms, giving them a solid, cut look. When compared to his arms, though covered with cloths and the sorts, his legs can seem kinda meek. He has a feral form to his gait, some call it wolven. Others call it innate confidence.

Psych. reports
Medical secrecy applies.
❖  Fearless ❖  Impulsive ❖  Apathetic ❖  Bright ❖
❖  Personality--
Maema was taught at an early age that being a natural fighter meant nothing in the face of three entities. Those three things were experience, numbers, and the unknown. The only thing that counteracted this lesson was a fearlessness that cultivated in him at an very early age. He can go either way when lives aren’t on the line. When they are however, a preternatural impulsiveness springs to life. One that springs from wishing to have the power to help others when he was younger.
Maema wants to save those oppressed by the Hamajo Confederation; he’s seen the ruthlessness they apply to hush rebellions. This is not coupled with some disregard for his own life though, he’s taught himself to be apathetic to others and to toss aside a hopeless situation. That’s not something he’s proud of but he’s found it necessary.
Outside of duty one might catch him smiling. Maybe even laughing but it's rare. His life has been undoubtedly hard. Growing up in Kumo-province taught him a valuable lesson: not everyone is looked after by the Confederation. Because of this Maema could be consider a cynical youth. He looks at every situation with caution and finds most people, specifically those full of cheer, extremely annoying. Despite being indifferent to most people, Maema has a hard time seeing others suffer. His father calls it “white knight syndrome” and says it has no place in the world of ninjas.
When he was child he saw the ugly truth and mistook it for being the Hamajo Confederation’s influence on the world. In fact he reflected that same “ugly truth” on every misdeed and offensive situations that came his way. Maema in turn created apathy as an early defense mechanism. He engraved it into his heart and then sought to protect what little innocence he had left. And then even he was forced to let that go once his father begun to guide him down the path to the Jiyuna no Guntai. 
❖  History--
Birth-Right
The story goes that a wandering samurai found his true love in the middle of blood and tears. Supposedly he was renowned throughout the countries as the “Rainless Dragon” a warrior whose blade struck true more times than not. A sellsword whose assistance and friends gave victory to those who hired him. His name was Yasu Nisshoku and he fell in love with a traveling philanthropist. She was not perfect but she inspired him to do things for the greater good. When Haruhi retired to Kumogakure, Yasu was behind her, hoping to settle down and build a family.
Years afterwards they gave birth to a boy. They named him Maema in concert with the loose-theme of their own names. They took on Yasu’s family name: Nisshoku and almost instantly he was given the moniker “Dragon child” by Yasu’s friends and “Angel-kin ” by Haruhi’s friends and family.
The boy’s youth was interrupted by the Hamajo Confederate taking over Kumogakure. The province changed for the worst afterwards. It became flooded with poverty and eventually through some unknown process became a farming province. It was a unwanted adjustment but Yasu and Haruhi did so without open complaints. For a time.
Forced Path
While Maema was working the fields, training, and attending school; his mother was busy stirring up trouble. She didn’t agree with the Hamajo Confederation. She fought against it with political movements; playing on the different causes to start a small alliance behind her humanitarian rallying points. Yasu watched this behind the scenes, warning her to be careful. She thought she had been. She was secretive about her growing rebellion but that would prove useless against the Confederation’s resources. The last Maema would see of his mother was her body’s gruesome decapitation, her head tilted on their home’s stone porch.
It was covered-up to be some Hamajo radical that killed Haruhi but Yasu had his own suspicions. He tempered his rage into productive action. When his comrades came back with information that suggested a Hamajo higher-up had quelled the Kumo-province uprising, it was then that Yasu thought to act. That was quickly snuffed out once he learned the merciless truth. That numerous, inconspicuous deaths that occurred only months after Haruhi’s own. It worsened when he lost all contact with a number of his friends.
Afterwards Yasu was struck with depression.
It wasn’t a typical depression. It was wrought with a determination to strengthen Maema as both a person and a ninja. Though crestfallen, Yasu poured everything into Maema diet, training regiment, and mental fortitude. Somethings the lad took to better than others. The physical works were unanimously better than the advance unconventional studies. Subjects that was decidedly far from necessary to become an effective ninja. Through conflicted inner circles that Maema had no idea about Yasu handed the youth into the care of the Jiyutai. He ensured the contacts that Maema was an asset and a mighty warrior.

❖  Familial ties--
Maema’s relationship with his father is strained. He greatly admires the man his father use to be. The smiling, humorous man that was a reluctant-hero. Nowadays the two of them greet each other in apathetic short-talk. He would never admit it to Yasu but Maema resents the man for deciding his future.
Yasu Nisshoku | Father | 52, Kumo-province, Yasu is a farmer who passes the time by wallowing in his own misery. Occasionally you can catch him practicing his unique, saw-sword swordsmanship outside of his home. 
❖  Dreams, short term goals, and fears.--
His childhood ended the day he stumbled upon his mother’s decapitated head. Since then he’s had no dreams, only goals. He wants to hurt the Hamajo Confederation and wouldn’t mind returning his father’s smile in the process. He fears what the world may look like if the Hamajo Confederation went unchecked.

Combat reports
Gathered based on exercises, training routines, and combat experience reports
❖  Combat style--
Maema attacks with unrelenting, self-perilously, and overkilling force. He utilizes his kekkei-tota in conjunction with his taijutsu, bojutsu, and limited ninjutsu to decimate all. When he can’t find those kinks he doggedly attacks until he’s weighed the opposition down to near nothing. The thing is, this dogged pursuit is counterproductive considering his kekkei-tota runs down his chakra reservoirs quickly. His legs have a weak constitution allowing rather easy and effective damage to them. Another weakness is his supposed Kekkai Tota which he has a resistance to but is still affected by.
❖  Kekkei Genkai--
❖ Name
 Suiginton (Mercury Release) 
❖ Description
 Suiginton (Mercury Release) is more or less exactly what it sounds like. The control, creation, and manipulation of the silvery-white substance. The liquid metal is poisonous, causing severe damage to the senses, muscles, and nerves. Mostly producing tremors, physical weakness, and a cruel disorientation in most beings. Suiginton is a Kekkei Tota that combines Earth, Water, and Lightning chakra natures.
❖ Strengths
 Maema’s Suiginton kekkei tota comes in two forms: the luminous solid weapons and the noxious gas. Small applications of other metals from the earth can harden it into physical weapons, such as spears, swords, and hammers. He can also transform the mercury into a gas by molding the chakra inside to do so. This could also happen if heat beyond 220 degrees celsius/428 degrees fahrenheit took hold of it. It takes a single exposure of the mercury gas for the tremors and nausea to take effect. A second dosage brings a gradual weakness in their muscles , along with peripheral blurring. The third round will result in a severe impairment and pain that could cripple the opponent. The fourth will result in death.
❖ Weaknesses
Suiginton or Mercury release allows for versatility for both offense and defense. It gives Maema a certain assurance but can also make him over reliant on it. Unfortunately, mercury release is a liquid and can be diluted by Water Release jutsu. While extreme forces or wind-jutsus can blow it away rather easily making him expand more chakra. 
❖ Ninja techniques
❖ Custom techniques
■ Name
Suiginton: Kage Bunshin no Jutsu (Mercury Release: Shadow Clone Jutsu)
■ Rank
A
■ Range
3-5 meters
■ Description
Unique to Maema’s Kekkei Tota this technique is used like most shadow clones are, however due to its nature this one is gravely more dangerous. It was inspired by Maema’s father. Like other shadow clones it can interact with the environment and can perform its own techniques. The clones also soak up knowledge and sends it to the user once dispensed of. Once injured they both burst into mercury gas, giving his opponent(s) half-a-dosage of mercury poison for each clone.
■ Name
Suiginton: Yasu no ha (Mercury Release: Blade of Yasu)
■ Rank
B
■ Range
Close
■ Description
Maema strings four hand seals together ending on the dragon seal. He then moves his hand to the empty scabbard on his side and brandishes a blade made of earthen elements and mercury. The insides of the scabbard gives the weapon its shape and intricate designs. The grass thin, blade is beautified by a thumb-sized circle near the base and a serpentine dragon flying towards it on the flat. When cut by the blade the opposition contracts mercury poisoning. Each cut can act as a small dosage to the opponent. A skin-deep cut can act as a single dosage, a muscle deep cut can act as two dosages. However a stab to an internal organ can act as three dosages. This blade is solidified with other minerals using earth chakra but the blade and point is lined with mercury. So to be honest, it can be destroyed with a blow strong enough to break iron.
■ Name
Suiginton: Haruhi (Mercury Release: Haruhi)
■ Rank
B
■ Range
2 meters around user
■ Description
Maema wields the seal of confrontation towards his opponent. A second later he pulls chakra from his heart, pulled other earthen elements from the ground, and molds it into a mercury maiden. This woman is made mostly of iron and therefore is defense oriented. Haruhi is quicker than Maema and sturdy, however her strength is Genin rank at best. She attacks only those that attack Maema directly, minimizing the usage of her chakra. She can mold her left arm into weapons for attacking. 
■ Name
Suiginton: Gyakusatsu (Mercury Release: Massacre)
■ Rank
C
■ Range
Long
■ Description
Maema molds an armory of weapons behind him, all of which is aimed towards his opponent(s). Once released they shoot out towards their target at break-neck speeds. Hardened to the density of a solid if impact is made the weapon can deal bone-breaking damage. On top of which mercury poison is dispensed through the body if cut or hit on an open wound. Some weapons that may appear are halberds, various types of blades, and lances. A skin-deep cut can act as a single dosage, a muscle deep cut can act as two dosages. However a stab to an internal organ can act as three dosages. Like most weapons these can be deflected by skilled individuals or dodged. Extreme heat can smelt the iron infused mercury and powerful wind release jutsu can blow them away. 
■ Name
Suiginton: Kohitsuji (Mercury Release: Lamb)
■ Rank
C
■ Range
10 meters around
■ Description
Maema forms 8 handsigns ending on the ram before releasing a hail, barrage, and frenzy of small mercury spheres. They are relatively weak impacting with D-rank damage but traveling at C-rank speeds. When they splash against an object the outer shell is broken and the mist inside spreads and joins together. This gathering take both a minute and a half to come together. Eventually a fog of mercury is made, endangering both himself with the lethal dosage and everyone inside. Maema the fearless welcomes the untimely death if it's for a worthy cause. This jutsu can be blown away by a strong enough wind-style jutsu.
■ Name
Suiginton: Kusari (Mercury Release: Chain)
■ Rank
B
■ Range
5 meters
■ Description
His main form of attack comes in the form of silverish-white tendrils with hand-shaped appendages at its end. They fly out from a reflective, oval-shape, pool of mercury that floats behind him; usually without the necessity of weaving hand seals. They have a limit of fifteen feet from himself and strikes quick. The end and length of the tendril can be molded into pikes, hammers, or other weapons. A skin-deep cut can act as a single dosage, a muscle deep cut can act as two dosages. However a stab to an internal organ can act as three dosages. When exposed to its melting-point a noxious gas is released. Lingering inside the gas for a post delivers a single dosage.
