~Appearance~

-Height: 1.64m
-Weight: 42kgs
-Hair Color: Mostly ashen grey, with the occasional patch of white.
-Clothing: Uta dresses in long black robes with very little decoration bar the discolouration from the bloodstains on the upper chest of the robes. He wears simple black boots to cover his feet, and possesses a black, grey and white snakeskin patterened scarf around his neck. His forehead protector is often wrapped around where his eyes once were, else it sits loosely over his scarf.
-Physical Description: Uta has wasted away since the experiments that robed him of his eyes, despite living in the uptown medical facility the food shortages which have struck his home nation have left him on poor rations that are not doing wonders for his recovery. He is lithe and frail looking, with significant scarring around his eye sockets, which are hollow and empty. His hair is long and unkempt, forming a wild main around his head which obscures his face from those around him. His right arm is marked with hollow metallic rings which lead to the Air Pressure Device built into his arm. The rings are placed in an irregular pattern, and a larger thirteenth wring takes up the majority of his palm, creating the barrel of the Air Pressure Device.

~Persona~

Personality: Uta is dedicated to his village moreso than most, especially the memory of the village's founder. He willingly submitted himself for experimentation and research for the betterment of the village, and even the failure of those experiments has done little to harm his devotion. He is softly spoken, and rarely speaks up unless he feels he can achieve something with his words. Despite this, he is quick to anger when asked about his eyes, he feels their loss is a sign of his devotion to his village, and grows irritated when others do not see things the same way.

Likes: His home, soft music, research and development

Dislikes: Traitors, loud sounds, people who waste his time

Favorites:
-Food: Rice pudding
-Color: He doesn't remember colour so well
-Music Genre: Otogakure Classical
-Book Genre: He can't read, but it was history once upon a time
-Hangout: The medical facility
-Idol: Orochimaru

~Background~

Current Allegiance: Otogakure

Relationships:
-Parent(s):
Jikken Dai: Uta's father, a Jounin who aspired to become an ANBU member in his youth, but as he has grown older has settled in to accepting his position as one he isn't leaving any time soon.
Jikken Hana: Uta's mother, a Chuunin who never managed to pass the requirements to become a Jounin, and quietly blamed the birth of her son for her failings. She occasionally helps train Gennin teams when not on missions, but has a dislike for children so avoids these duties when she can.
-Sibling(s): None
-Significant Other(s): None
-Pet(s): None
-Teacher(s): Hagemasu Kikuya.
-Friend(s):
Various Otogakure Intellectuals: Uta is friends with a group of old men who sit around and talk about 'the good old days'. Originally he was with them to be taught to write, but they found him interesting enough to keep around once he had finished his education.

History:
Born to a pair of Oto-nin who would never achieve much of note, Uta was raised to believe there was little cause to think he could change the world. He was an only child, and his parents were often on minor missions around the country, so he was left to fend for himself more often than not. In his youth he took to reading historical accounts of the village, and developed an admiration for the village's founder, Orochimaru. Knowing his parents were ninjas, Uta insisted he be taught the ninja arts as well, in the hopes of emulating his hero in years to come. In his dreams of becoming a ninja he found great passion the likes of which he had not previously known, which rapidly shifted his quiet, self aware personality to a more boistrous and outgoing type where ninjas were concerned. Figuring it a good way to have him looked after while they did their own thing, Uta was enrolled in the academy and began training as a ninja, where he showed an unusual affinity for the sound element. While his overall powers were nothing incredible, his connection to sound made him of interest to some of the ninja responsible for research in Otogakure, who requested Uta assist them in their attempts to develop a unique doujutsu that would rival that of the legendary eye techniques of Konohagakure. Aged 8 and with dreams higher than his station, Uta agreed unquestioningly, and wasn't seen again for two years.

Though he was secluded from the world at the time, the year he left was the same year that Otogakure tried and failed to cast off the shackles of the Kumo Empire. Because of the secretive nature of the experiments used upon him, he managed to remain relatively unaware of the events transpiring since the fall of his village, and try though they may the NCIA were unable to locate the hidden area where the experiments were being performed. By the time he emerged from the experiments, the war was over, Otogakure was free, and Uta himself was able to resume his ninja training.

When finally he was returned to the academy, he had changed dramatically. He was softly spoken where once he had been more brash and vocal in his opinions, he was slow and cautious where once he was headstrong and brave, and most importantly he was blind. His eyes had been lost during the experiments, and attempts to repair his eyesight after this loss failed dramatically, leaving him scarred and sightless. Not wishing to fully destroy the hopes of a young ninja whose devotion may again prove useful one day, he was returned to the academy with a special tutor who would work to teach him to function in the world without his eyes. Though it was slow at first, Uta's connection to the sound element resurfaced and allowed him to 'see' the world through the soundwaves those around him made. It wasn't perfect, but it enabled him to return to full time study at the academy until he was able to graduate at age 14 (due to the two years he lost during his experimentation). Upon release from the academy, his parents realised they didn't have the time nor ability to cater to their injured child, but the mysterious ninja who had taken him away for experimentation put him up in a rehabilitation clinic at the uptown medical facility, allowing him to recover more easily and gain access to some important connections in the high society of Otogakure. Here he has been speaking with some of the more learned historians in Otogakure, and with their help has started learning to write, so that he may chronicle the events of the world so that future generations may be inspired by his deeds or the deeds of others as he has been inspired by the legendary Orochimaru. Because of his blindness, he views the world in a different way to many of the scholars he speaks with, and his point of view on events as he has heard them is often enjoyed by his seniors.

Not deterred in his devotion to Otogakure, Uta has sought ways to prove himself both as a villager and as a ninja of the hidden sound village, proudly tackling problems he is told that without his eyes there is no hope for him to succede at. He expects that one day he will be recalled to the testing facilities to resume experimentation, and for the good of the village he awaits that day.

Once the charm breaks, however, the song turns dark in their minds, and a primal fear sets in which leaves the unfortunate target a quivering wreck.
