Shimura Raijuta
Shimura Raijuta is a high ranking shinobi in Konohagakure no Sato. He is a general in ANBU and is currently the acting general in the stead of Uchiha Nevan. He is the great grandson of Danzo Shimura and carries on his lineage's line of duty to the Leaf, although not quite as extreme or foolish to lead ROOT. Despite his apparent opposite nature to the Hokage, he does not disrespect the man, yet would never wager to put the village on the line. Raijuta is a masterful jutsu creator, attempting to create a new line of 'legendary' techniques, as well as trying to recover those lost from Konoha.

Personality
Raijuta is a man in control, or at least he appears to be and likes to see himself as one. He is powerfully manipulative and charismatic, setting up scenarios to fall the way he wills by simple psychological games. He often feeds off what he believes a subject wants most although he never demands them to listen, he convinces them that they are doing his bidding by their own free will. Sometimes, they are, but it removes him from blame. His methods are effective, though arguably unfair and yet this is what's necessary to support his job. Raijuta is a humble man though, inasmuch as he would never sign an autograph or aim to be the center of a child's story. He does what he needs to because he needs to. A nice little quirk he has is that he doesn't like rooms. He calls them "mini-prisons".
Biography
Raijuta was never liked as a child, primarily because the name Shimura left a bad taste in many's mouths. It was mainly by adults though, children didn't seem to mind or know the name Danzo until their upper years at the academy. That was fine by him, although he did get a little lonely at times, which led him to "make friends", and in his terms it meant create a mutual play agreement between the parties at hand. He was actually kind of popular at the academy simply because he was incredibly smart, but he never boasted it. Unlike Amanohara_Konpeki, who was a little smarter and let everyone know it. They were interesting characters apart, but together in a team, they made any teacher uncomfortable to be taught by. In fact, it was rumored that these boys learned more form each other than from their instructor, until more demanding instructors came their way. After they graduated, the boys kept in contact, but a divison grew among them. Konpeki grew to greatness, even Hokage and Raijuta was merely in his shadow- the great tale of the Shimura. Unlike his kinsman, Raijuta didn't mind it as much, although he was jealous. This drove him to vigorous studies of ninjutsu.
When the NCIA hit, Raijuta was furious Konpeki selected Yamamoto Hiruki to help him defend the village instead of himself. Although later he recognized that the denial was actually faith that he would protect Konoha should anything adverse happen to Konpeki, which it did. Despite this, after the NCIA was successful, Raijuta fled to find the remains of his teammate, which was never actually found. He searched a long while, traveling many places but returning to Konoha, much more a master in his shinobi ways. He fought with the resistance for the final push to topple the empire and made it a personal vendetta to eliminate any stragglers, before the Hokage intervened. After this, he was approached by Uchiha Nevan who selected him as first ANBU under him.
