~Shumi Kominishi [Deceased]

-twirls-

Kominishi, Shumi

Age:24

Height:5'7''

Weight:145 lbs

Village of Origin: Amegakure

Rank:上忍, Jōnin

Chakra Affinity: Earth/Water

Special Abilities: Shumi does possess kekkei genkai and resorts to typical ninjutsu and taijutsu. Despite her kekkei genkai's striking similarity to many jutsu in the genjutsu variety, she does not typically employ this and has very little skill in the area.

The Kominishi kekkei genkai directly involves the user's appearance. While skin pigment is not affected, eye color and hair color are. The Kominishi clan are natural masters of disguise once they have mastered their art. The kekkei genkai allows them to change their eye color, hair color, hair length, hair type, and most importantly of all - the tensile and compressive strengths of each individual hair. As a result, the Kominishi clan comes equipped automatically with both shield and weapon. Because of the rapid genesis of cells required to grow hair and harden or shed durability, this ability is akin to rapid regeneration and sucks a massive amount of chakra that can leave the user paralyzed from exhaustion if overexerted. The first generation of the Kominishi clan honed its focus on the possibilities and extents of the abilities. Shumi has researched and applied the ancient teachings of Hagoromo Otsutuki and is expanding the general knowledge on chakra strengthening and control so that those abilities can be used more frequently and swiftly.

Personality:
Shumi is very loyal to her village. Shumi believes that no people, hers especially, are any less just because they aren't from the Main Five. She is cordial and professional but is much warmer to the shinobi she was raised with and has fought beside. She holds a vendetta against a rogue ninja from her Chūnin days whom she has sworn to kill despite the fact that he is taking refuge in one of the main villages involved in the war. In general, Shumi is quiet, but among the first to resort to action over talk.
Character History: Shumi was the second born of her family and the only to possess the Kominishi kekkei genkai. Of her parents, only her father had the kekkei genkai. Because of this, Shumi trained extensively with her father and became very close with him, much to her older brother's chagrin. She trained intensively through her Genin and Chunin years, but left her training path when a teammate and close friend died on a mission. She trained for several years as a medical ninja and it was in this time that she honed her skill in chakra control and strength before returning to the standard path of the Jonin. She has declined taking on Genin apprentices and focuses instead on missions for her village and assassinations in the ninja war. She has several personal missions and vendettas that actively influence her every action.

Mijirishou Kominishi – [Deceased] Shumi Kominishi’s father. A workaholic ninja who was determined to carry his clan to greatness as much as was in his ability to do so. He possessed the kekkei genkai of the Kominishi and found the scrolls documenting the locations of the five Plates of Heaven (Blood, Water, Wind, Earth, and Essence). From his initial attempts to discover and recover the five Plates, he discovered and learned a Forbidden Jutsu that would kill any user after a mere two uses. He never spoke to anyone in Amegakure regarding this and intended to take the secrets of his research to his grave. On his deathbed, he told one person which would lead to the death of his firstborn son and the slaughter of many innocent people in Amegakure.

Namkao Kominishi – [Deceased] Shumi Kominishi’s older brother and the firstborn of her personal family. Namkao was not blessed with the kekkei genkai of the Kominishi which resulted in an unparalleled drive to succeed and become the strongest of all the Kominishi. He displayed remarkable intelligence in both the classroom and with battlefield strategy which lead him to rapid success in the earliest days of his ninja career. As a Chunin, Namkao displayed an aggressive and unforgiving disposition that left his superiors concerned with how he would handle situations and missions that involved masses of innocent people. He was selected to train with a small group of Ame’s shinobi who believed he would excel at direct assassinations which was their specialty. It was around this time that his best friend and confidant, Jino Buromi, betrayed Amegakure and stole Namkao’s father’s research before entering a murdering spree which Namkao did nothing to stop. Driven mad by the situation and his sister’s rage at his passive attitude during the event, Namkao turned against his clan and sealed their fates forever with a gory act of maniacal rage. Namkao destroyed the fertility of each of the remaining Kominishi women – culminating with an attack on his own sister. After rendering her infertile, the two siblings entered into a fight which would ultimately lead to Shumi using her father’s Forbidden Jutsu and destroying her brother. She would bury him outside of the traditional burial grounds of Amegakure and out beneath a landmark magnolia tree that had never bloomed. Since his body was laid to rest there, the tree blooms year-round and has become a shrine of hope for the families who have lost members to the lifestyle of the rogue ninja.

Jino Buromi – [Deceased] Jino was Namkao Kominishi’s best friend and the childhood bully of Shumi Kominishi. Coming from the Buromi clan whose kekkei genkai weaponized blood – Jino was feared by his peers and opponents who found his methods both cruel and ruthless. Jino was often considered a ‘glass canon’ as his abilities resulted in heavy damage to his body which could only be repaired by an immense supply of chakra – something that Jino never naturally possessed. When his best friend’s father passed away, Jino learned through his grieving of old research which promised unlimited chakra by means of five Plates of Heaven. Especially interested in the Heaven’s Plate of Blood which would grant him immense regeneration and a great store of chakra, Jino stole the research and murdered a large amount of innocent people in his attempt to escape Amegakure and begin the life of a rogue ninja with his own agenda. It was not until several months later that he would learn of Namkao’s death and Shumi Kominishi’s oath that she would end his life in severance for what he had done to the Kominishi clan and Amegakure as a whole.
