Enkou, the Tsuchikage

Name: Enkou

Age: 35

Rank: Kage

Village: Iwagakure

Affinity:fire/earth/lava

Type: Ninjutsu and Taijutsu

Specialized: A tank, he focuses on overwhelming his opponents with sheer power and shrugging off their attacks with unmatched defensive abilities. His mastery of fire and earth jutsu are feared throughout the shinobi world and he is, very literally, peerless in the use of his unique lava style jutsu. However, he is almost completely lacking in usage of even the most basic of other chakra affinities, being of the thought that he would rather be a master of a handful of elements then a subpar user of many different kinds.

Clan: None, was a ward of the village almost his entire life

Physical description: Towering over most people at a whopping 6'6 tall, Enkou complements his massive stature with an extremely muscular body of 240 pounds. His skin is a dark tan color, and he has a shaved head (his actual hair is black if he where to grow it out) and cold coal black eyes. Underneath his Kage uniform, he wears an outfit almost exactly like the one worn by Kakuzu beneath his akatsuki robe. The only differences being that he doesn't wear a mask over his face and the tunic is thundercloud gray as opposed to the dark blue worn by Kakuzu. Has running across his back a long scar that runs from his left shoulder to right hip.

Personality: Despite the fiery nature of his Biju and powers, Enkou is a surprisingly calm and stoic man. Rare is the situation that he doesn't meet with complete calm and self control. However, his rare rages are truly a terror to behold, being monstrous rampages of unstoppable destruction as he tears through whatever has managed to earn his ire. Is a very loyal man, and a good friend to those that befriend him, though he very much values alone time so that he can meditate. Strives to be a fair man that treats all well that deserve it.


Likes: Calm, Chiasa, Indira, quiet, meditation, training, books, friends, comrades, and his village

Hates: Racket, those that would harm his home and comrades, hot heads (he is aware of the irony), disrespect towards his deceased sensei and sempai, picking on the weak.

Background: Enkou was, to put it simply, a war orphan, both his parents being killed in battle before he was even out of diapers. His parents both having been fairly respected shinobi, he was selected from amongst the village orphans for the dubious honor of serving Iwagakure as the container for the Yonbi biju, which had recently been recovered after decades of being out of the hands of the village.

Though not inflicting overt psychological damage on it's host like some such as the Ichibi, the Yonbi still doomed Enkou to a life of lonelinesss. All but a few avoiding the child out of fear of his volatile nature and great, as well as sometime unpredictable, powers. Young Enkou as a result grew up into a fiery and passionate young shinobi who could be controlled by few and was befriended by fewer. One of those who feel into both categories was the man who would eventually become his jounin sensei, a kindly almost monk like man named Iwa (who was, yes, named by parents with perhaps to much patriotism and love for their village).

Under Iwa's tutelage, young Enkou rapidly developed into a superb powerful shinobi, becoming an ANBU by the age of 13 despite most of the villages mistrust of him, and earned the begrudging respect and acceptance of most of the village in the process. However, despite their best efforts, neither Iwa or Usagi could ever truly curb Enkou's passionate fire, and this got Enkou into trouble on more then one occasion. Whether it be from passionate, but short lived, affairs with many a young kunoichi drawn to his fire (with the most quietly whispered, and never proven, rumors suggesting he had even had flings with young kunoichi of other villages that he had meet more then once while on missions) or from the fact that he often picked fights and jumped into situations without stopping to think them thru.

Then disaster would strike him because of his hotheaded nature, around when Enkou was 20. In an extremely dangerous S-rank mission in which he was partnered with his former sensei, Enkou once again went into a situation with guns blazing. The end result being that Enkou was gravely wounded and his sensei was killed obtaining their objective.

Crushed at the death of the man that was the closest thing he had to a father, Enkou for a time took a sanctioned leave from his village to try and fix his problems, with the result being that two years later he returned, more or less, the man he was today.


Weapon Name: Tailed beast aura- Though years of dedicated training, Enkou has obtained the ability to completely control all four tails of the chakra of his monstrous inner beast. However, as he considers the massive size of it's true form more a hindrance then a help, he generally won't go past three tails of the beasts power. Doesn't bother with his 1 and 2 tailed states, if a situation is dire enough to warrant higher then his zero tailed state, it is probably a situation where he can't afford to do anything but go all out.

0-tailed aura: His most commonly used state, in this state his pupils turn a fierce burning amber color and he is surrounding by a cloak of crimson chakra. In this state, his speed, strength, and stamina receive large boosts and his tanking abilities increase thanks to his chakra aura. At this level, his chakra cloak is only hot enough to cause very mild burns when touching an opponent (think the kind you get when you accidentally grab a hot pan someone just took out of the oven for a split second). These generally only serve to mildly distract his opponent unless he lands a blow somewhere you really don't want hot objects near, like an eye. Thanks to his increased resonance with his beast in this state, the chakra cost of his unique lava style jutsu decreases somewhat in this state down to about 75% of their normal cost (the cost remains at 75% at all his tailed transformation levels, it never goes any lower then what it gets here). Has very minor regeneration.

3 tailed aura abilities:In this state, Enkou is covered in a bubbling cloak of chakra that mimics the effects of burning hot lava on it's target. While in this state, the ground literally burns beneath his feet as he walks and anyone that comes into contact with the cloak suffers horribly severe burns unless they them self have an extremely powerful force shielding their body. This makes Enkou all but immune to taijutsu and a monster when it comes to physical combat, as he doesn't even have to directly land a hit to horrendously damage his foes, merely brush them with his aura. He can also manipulate the burning tails of chakra that the cloak forms, turning them into paws of burning chakra that can be stretched out vast distances and with great control to attack his foes (think what Naruto does with the extending kyuubi arms). By bringing all three 'hands' of chakra in close proximity to one another, he can charge up and unleash a fiery and devastating energy attack of great size more then capable of matching S-rank jutsu in power. Of course, this form gives massive strength, speed, and stamina boosts common to all tailed beast transformations. In terms of physical changes, in this form the white of his eyes turn a pure black, his pupils remain the burning amber of his 0-tailed state, and his teeth become sharp fangs like those of an ape. Has decent regeneration in this state, able to heal broken bones and gashes (not vital organs or limb loss, though).

4-tails: Becomes the beast itself, capable of unleashing a massive devastating lava blast capable of obliterating several city blocks easily. *will think up more later*

Unarmed- Thanks to his great natural power and some of his personal jutsu, Enkou is a force to be reckoned with without using either weapon or biju aura. Able to crush massive boulders with the greatest of ease and block all but the most powerful attacks with his bare hands.

I approve

Stats looks good, character looks good, interesting bio, melikes! Approved.

Approved.

Updated my stats

Edited my profile a little bit, cut down on how long his journey thing was because I though the length I had set before was excessive.

Major update, tinkered with his tailed beast forms and added a complete up to date bio.

Hmm, as a kage level beast container with full control of his beast, what would the likely hood of me being allowed to get a 'version 2' form of my three tails mode like KB has for 7 tails be?

Kill B's V2 was actually 8 tails in human form, not just 7.

Was it? I could have sworn it still only had 7 tails. I must have miscounted<_<;

Well, can I have that, then?

...i just counted, it was definitively 7 tails. i'll bring the pic up if you need proof.

and i don't think so, enkou. you're already a kage with a fully controlled bijuu, i don't think you need another power up. >_>

to be fair, i think we should make it that nobody can use Version 2, or at least until we can get a better idea of what it does. sound fair?

Technically, version 2 is a mark of full control<_<

But, yeah, seems fair to me. Maybe I'll just change up the appearance a bit so it looks like the more controlled form instead of changing it's abilities.

that would be fine.

oh, and scratch that comment about the number of tails...it is 8...my bad.

Hmm, then it is something different then what I already have.

Grr, same chapter somehow manages to make me have put more thought into not just one but two of my character's abilities<_<;

So, this died, but since Rana added one to her character it reminded me I had been thinking of a version 2 form. Covering him in ape bones for scaryness seems like an amusing idea<_<
