New Character Karitegaki Matsuda

I like the show, gave up '24' for it on the spot. They really have a good mixture, but would like to see more of Sylar though, more character development would be nice. I find the male version of Rogue [Peter] and Hiro entertaining.

Thank you Maelstrom... 1 more to go

The heart(s) is harvested at the end of battle. While the body could be examined later for the interrogation, but of course it would be preferred if one sealed the corpse into a scroll, or use some other tactic to preserve the body.

Wording fixed Yes, the examination of the body is how they gather the information, a ritualistic autopsy really. The bloodline already gives the user access to the bodies of the dead...since they are harvesting the hearts of those dead, but this is basically meant to tease out the last remnants of importance of the character, their little black book of secrets.

sounds reasonable...edited

Shuukaku Bloodline For Idenchizu Choukou skill Name: Way of the Necromancer Bloodline: Shuukaku Description: The extensive and extrapolated studies in which a Shuukaku Sage or Mystic partook in essence lead them to delve deeper into the prey they have chosen. Their metaphysical studies enabled them to look briefly into the psyche of their prey through their harvested organ, but later development yielded a new path in which they learned that the answers in which they sought is written in your skin and muscles, in ligaments and tendons and corpuscles. It’s in the brain fluid in the mucus in the eye and ear, in the tapestry of the dead tissue itself. The answers found in your inner most thoughts and habits which they seek are in your blood, your guts, in the marrow of your smallest bone. Although considered hideous for the thoroughness of examination the preserved corpse undergoes, it grants them the information which normal forms of interrogation could never generate. Effects: Could only choose one discipline per corpse examined with 10 post training. The Necromancer is able to convert their skeletal structure to fit the identity of the corpse examined, adds + 5 to the visibility roll for every identity stolen. Intelligence Harvesting Discipline: The Necromancer is able to gather strategic information of the persons which this shinobi held ties with. Gains +5% to accuracy and evasion against the shinobi(s) which deceased trained with or battled against. Psychophysical Harvesting Discipline: The Necromancer is able to use Idenchizu Choukou without its former posting and use restrictions. Requirements: Jounin Rank, Shuukaku Rank 3, Omoitoru, Idenchizu Choukou, and either Path of the Mystic or Path of the Sage. Cost: -4

Clan Name: Karitegaki Clan Clan Village: Iwa [ Formerly of the minor Hidden Village of Waterfall] Clan Starter: Torofihanta Akira Clan Head: Karitegaki Shikon Clan Age and Status: Six generations old, surviving remnant of the extinct Torofihanta Clan, history relatively unknown in their new home. Clan Bloodline: Shuukaku Clan Element: Earth Clan Emblem: none Clan Info: A long time ago, there was said to be a clan which were born with what was thought to hold superior physiques. The Torofihanta Clan of the Hidden Waterfall Village was believed to hold the keys to physical invulnerability. Durable, able to handle the extremities which nature could offer without much for wear. Strong, the founder was known to create seismic depressions as an example of his power. They were also fast, known for delivering messages faster than homing pigeons and founders of the courier service. They were bearers of a muscular abnormality. Dystrophin, a protein that lies under the muscle fiber membrane and maintains the integrity of the cellular system was produced excessively. It created mesomorphic offspring, guaranteed to birth members which carried superior physical abilities. The pores in their skin became tighter and layered, covering the points of their chakra circulatory system. Without avenues of escape, they learned to enhance their physical capabilities instead of manipulating the elements, often shunning those who performed elemental techniques…calling it a waste of human potential. They believed that all which was required were might and the hardening of their bodies, being able to withstand the elements at its most treacherous. It soon became apparent that what was believed to be their strongest attribute also became the reason of their downfall. The start of each generation brought with it weaker members, usually starting to decline in strength in their pubescent stages. The amount of dystrophin in their bodies increased steadily, ceasing to feed muscle tissue while increasing the size of the intravenous system. By the end, their limbs were useless to them as their skin warped with knots of corded veins and arteries as the rest withered. Treated as lepers by the villagers, they were ostracized due to fears that it might be contagious. They were taken to a cave located in the mountain region less traveled and simply forgotten, a prayer in their heart that they were never heard from again, and life moved on for the majority as well as the Torofihanta. The majority died to starvation, incapable to move using their own strength and simply gave up hope. But a teenager at the time from the Karitegaki family learned how to cope with his ailments and never gave up. Karitegaki Akira learned how to use his chakra to make his enlarged circulatory system which appeared like thick tendrils to act as a substitute for his dilapidated muscles. As he became more skilled, he noticed other abilities…at the expense of the remaining survivors. Akira learned that their lack of muscles gave him peculiar advantages. His weight was reduced by a third of his weight without a penalty towards physical abilities. Another was the ability to separate his skin to allow access to his tendrils, making them stick out at first like small spikes while in later development as an extension for limbs to capture prey. But the strongest ability was that of harvesting. The Shuukaku bloodline bearer is able to extend their lifetime exponentially by transplanting human hearts into their body. This also served to nullify the chains of their predecessors, as the Shuukaku learned how to manipulate one of the elements which their organ donor formerly knew as well as certain techniques and abilities which they also held. Decades later they re-emerged back into normal village life in a new home, Iwa. Hiding their abilities for the most part while hunting among the freshly [or almost] dead on the battlefields, they are known as ordinary shopkeepers, refugees from a small village who sought life in a bigger one. There was no mention of their predecessors, as those of the older and feeble generation were sent back to their caves in the Waterfall village, where it is there responsibility to take care of loose ends; the destruction of their feeble through the fight for survival. …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… Bloodline Status: Approved Shuukaku – Harvester Description: The family’s bloodline was rumored to be cursed, it was said that the first of this clan was possessors of physical bodies which were difficult to injure and the wondrous strength, but had difficulty in using techniques which involved elements. The start of each generation brought with it weaker members, usually starting to decline in strength in their pubescent stages. The problem lied in the mutation in dystrophin, a protein that lies under the muscle fiber membrane and maintains the cell's integrity. The protein production in the cells of their muscular system became warped, instead of maintaining the growth and strength of their muscles, the protein soon strengthen the bearer’s epidermis, intravenous, and nervous systems. The tendril-like texture of the circulatory system adapted and replaced the diminishing muscles. They learned to also tap into harvested organs to enhance their physical capacity and longevity. Restriction: Character may not take the Subtle Elements skill, may start the game with one of the five basic elements [Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, Lighting], but may not take Sandcastle Sovereign, Sonic Boom, Green Thumb, or Perfect Storm.
