KONASU, TESSHŌ
“My, what a ride.”

    While the Konasu clan owe their glass charmer ability for their claim to fame in their early days, their other abilities would give them a place in the shinobi world and allow them to be a prominent contribution to Sunagakure's population almost a century after they first surfaced. Tesshou would find himself born into the third generation of Konasu since the division, born to Konasu Kirie and Yoshida Satoshi. Kirie, his mother, was apart of the Sunagakure ANBU and decided to retire once she discovered she was with child. Satoshi, on the other hand, was an outsider that belonged to no village.

    Although he had initially resolved to let go of Kirie and return to the Yoshida, news of Kirie's pregnancy convinced Satoshi to marry the woman and help care for their child. Thus Tesshou would experience a pleasant childhood with both of his parents present and happily pouring love into the youth until he reached the age of seven. This was when his parents decided to enroll him into the Ninja Academy, something he foresaw once his mother and father began to give him spontaneous training sessions after his fifth birthday. On top of his big transition to Academy Student was the sudden departure of his father. Kirie covered for Satoshi, telling Tesshou that one day Satoshi would return and they could be a happy family once again but somehow Tesshou knew otherwise. Rather, he felt otherwise. And these feelings caused him to act out in the Academy.

    He became infamous during his stay at the Ninja Academy due to being prone to mischief and starting fights with other kids, mostly whenever they dropped the 'Eggplant' nickname in reference to the coloring of his hair. Oddly enough, he was talented. Deep beneath the delinquent front was a boy with something to prove and whenever there was an opportunity for Tesshou to let his talents shine, he would do whatever was in his power to keep that spotlight on him. By a stroke of luck, Tesshou managed to become a Genin after one repeated stay at the Academy. After taking notice to what she could tell was emotional frustration from Satoshi's sudden departure, Kirie decided the best thing for Tesshou was to leave him with his grandfather to both sort out his feelings and prepare him for the Chūnin exams.

    Konasu Kaisumaru, a veteran shinobi and Tesshou's grandfather, had retired to the rank of Sennin sometime after Kirie was born though not without his fair share of accomplishments. Enough to be recognized as a Jōnin from a relatively young age, at least. Even so, Tesshou did not initially recognize his grandfather's prestige, and this caused the first month of training to be difficult for both of them. It was after this month that Kaisu made Tesshou participate in the Chūnin exams. Though he had no confidence in the boy actually succeeding, he was surprised and impressed with just how far Tesshou made it before failing. Tesshou, on the other hand, would walk away with the realization that he needed his grandfather's training if he wanted to succeed his second time around.

    Tesshou's openness the second time around allowed him and Kaisu to build a strong relationship, and he soon came to see his grandfather as the father figure he lost when Satoshi disappeared. Eventually, Kaisu decided to go beyond what he felt Tesshou would need for the exams and tried to pass on all that he could to the boy. After a year of training, Tesshou would return a new man. After seeing how much her son had matured, Kirie would finally tell Tesshou the truth about his father.

    Satoshi's sudden disappearance was a result of the Yoshida falling into trouble. Under Satoshi's elder brother's rule, the Yoshida managed to settle on a piece of land and work out a deal with the Daimyou. It did not take long for rival clans to rise and attempt to eliminate the Yoshida for control of their property. Satoshi could not turn a blind eye to this, especially after already turning his back on them once to stay with Kirie and Tesshou. While Satoshi's return contributed to the defeat of the rival clans, he died from the wounds that he sustained before he could get medical treatment.

    Upon hearing the truth about his father, Tesshou had an irezumi tattoo etched into his back in tribute to his father, and a kirin tattoo in tribute to his grandfather. He then participated in the Chūnin exams for a second time and managed to pass. Higher ranked ninja who observed his performance noticed his intuitive use of his abilities and purposefully requested him for certain missions to further test his abilities in the field.

    It was eventually determined that he was more proficient in espionage than the typical Chūnin. Though he never really liked the idea of being an Oinin, he was open to his promotion to Tokubetsu Jōnin with a specialty in tracking and reconnaissance.

APPEARANCE,

HEIGHT: 5'11.

HAIR COLOR: Raven.

In spite of years of physical training, Tesshou's physique is misleadingly compact. This could be attributed to his training focusing more on muscle stamina than actual muscle mass, and his tendency to wear over-sized hoodies. His eyes are amber in color due to his Konasu heritage and his hair contrasts it as a dark, almost black, purple. His eyes further contrast with his dark skin, sometimes making them seem brighter than they actually are, though his hair seems to compliment his pigment. His right ear holds two earrings while his left only has one, and beneath his left eye is an unraised mole. His only other distinguishing features would be his large irezumi tattoo. In homage to his heritage, Tesshō had the image of a kirin tattooed onto his left breast, surrounded by waves that extend mid-way down his bicep. The waves continue around his back, where they mesh with an ensemble of peonies, lotuses, cherry blossoms, and clouds.

PERSONALITY,

When first encountering Tesshou, one of the first traits one will notice is his sarcastic nature. As an emotionally distraught child he turned to jokes and humor to mask his pain. Most of these jokes where in dry humor and while he is much more at piece with himself now, sarcastic responses have just grown to be a habit for him. Though generally seen with a laid-back and carefree persona, there's not a moment inside his mind where he lacks precaution. This precaution does not make way for tact, however, as he has a tendency to be remarkably blunt. His laid-back nature is accompanied with a lazy facade, as Tesshou will complain about literally anything, though within him is a strong sense of duty. His strong-willed nature pushes him to accomplish any goal that comes to his mind, however that same aspect contributes to a headstrong nature that many try to avoid.
