MENTALITY:
A powerful man with a powerful presence, Akujin is the embodiment of Uchiha power. Deathly calm and assured of his purpose, the almost casual demeanor with which he wades through life both on and off the battlefield is off-putting, even to some of his own allies.

BIOGRAPHY:
Born before the First Shinobi War, Akujin is a remnant of an older time. Raised as a warrior and as a shinobi of the Uchiha Clan, he killed his first enemy at the age of ten - shortly after the first war broke out. To this day, he still recalls the event; He was at home, training with his elder brother Raoh when shinobi of an enemy village stole upon them, having infiltrated the village and looking to steal the kekkei genkai of the Uchiha.

While his brother took on two of the enemies by himself, the remaining foe rushed into the house where their younger sister was sleeping. Knowing she was in danger, he pushed his body as fast as it would go to catch up to the older shinobi. He had just arrived at their sister’s room when he - with a kunai they had been training with - launched himself at the enemy. The collision planted the kunai in the shinobi’s back, right between the ribs and into one of his lungs, and slammed the shinobi into the floor, waking his sister up.

The feel of the life draining from someone he only barely knew still sent shivers down his spine, much less the time he had to kill someone he knew very well.

When he was fifteen years old, five years into the war, he and his elder brother were sent on a mission together. The Sharingan was needed to track and subdue a spy in the village, and the two were fortunate - or unfortunate, as the case may be - enough to be one of the few combat teams left in the village whom both had it active. Their sister, an Iryounin, was also assigned to their squad though she did not have her Sharingan yet.

They tracked the spy to the outskirts of the village, and were confronted with another Uchiha - a brother in arms. It wasn’t very long before the more skilled brothers had captured the shinobi. While they released a carrier pigeon and Akujin guarded the prisoner with his katana, the captured Uchiha declared his fealty to Konoha’s enemies and plunged himself onto Akujin’s katana, killing himself.

These recollections, while forever fresh in mind, prepared him for the life of war he had lived. By the end of the first war he was twenty years old, and one of the Uchiha’s finest shinobi in conjunction with his elder brother Raoh and younger sister, Mai. The three made quite the team, his elder brother specializing in unarmed combat and Ninjutsu, his younger sister in support and healing, and himself… Well, as for himself…

Akujin was large for his age, almost as large as his brother who stood as a giant amongst their clanmates. His size and physical strength lent itself well to his specialty, Kenjutsu. He found that, with the Sharingan, his sword skills had enhanced tenfold. His blade was the powerhouse of the team; capable of defeating multiple enemies in one blow.

During the intervening time between the first and second Shinobi wars, Akujin and his team grew. Taking mission after mission, they honed their skills to the finest edge they possibly could, perfecting their teamwork and reaction time. The group was recruited into Konoha’s ANBU Corps, and their abilities were made use of effectively.

Soon after the outbreak of the second war, in the wartorn lands of Amegakure, the trio found themselves surrounded. The enemy had discovered a way to negate the effects of the Sharingan, even when used by multiple Uchiha at once. Overwhelm them.

His left arm caught in a spike trap while he’d been defending attacks from all sides, Akujin was almost taken prisoner. Fighting for his life and separated from his siblings, he hacked his own arm off with one swipe of his blade to release himself, becoming an unstoppable demon while bleeding from more wounds than one would think possible.

After the massacre, he found his elder brother Raoh in a blasted clearing, their younger sister dead in his arms. While he’d been preoccupied with the majority of the ambush forces, Mai had been captured in a complex Genjutsu and run through before she could break free. Raoh had avenged her, but his right eye was gone in the process. The two brothers maimed, and their sister dead, the Uchiha retreated from the battlefield.

Their wounds were treated, and while Raoh gained no replacement eye Konoha’s artisans fabricated a mechanical arm for Akujin. Operated by the muscles in his bicep flexing, and by chakra, he was once more whole. Somewhat.

The two brothers grew distant after that war ended, each blaming themselves for the loss of their sister. But, life must move on. Death, and loss, are the way of the Shinobi.[/size][/blockquote]
