Elite Jounin

Kumogakure

APPEARANCE

Torriku stands at 7'7" tall and an impressive 347 lbs. His age has, surprisingly, not affected his physical abilities in any negative way. In fact; he is in the prime physical shape of his life. His muscular stature is boasts a resilient body and powerful physique. Despite his massive size, he is actually in no way impaired by this and is extremely fast on his feet and quite flexible when needed. His focus throughout the majority of his life has been on taijutsu and ninjutsu related skills that support taitjutsu; thus leading to his current physical condition. He has hazel eyes with the only hair on his head being a white ponytail and a white beard with long sideburns that flair back and upwards several inches above his balled head. His attire is normally of that of the Kumogakure Anbu, adorning himself in white accented with red. His headband is worn around his waist. He also wears white bracers and gloves armored with metal plates and accented in red. He also has a white and red Anbu mask from when he helped found the organization.

PERSONALITY

Torriku is a very unique individual due to his involvement with helping start Kumogakure's Anbu. He has been taught since before he was even a teenager that the mission comes first. Although he holds the importance of the mission in high regard and, in most times, the governing authority on his decisions; he has not let this ideology affect his views on the importance of teamwork and what it means to be a shinobi. He will always put the safety of the village before himself; however, he views his comrades as part of the village.

Torriku is rather manipulative when he wants to be, prodding the Raikage or others in just the right way in order to get things done. If those under his command are being lazy, he will manipulate them to be motivated. If the Raikage is taking her time on making a decision involving him; he will do other things to halt her progress in other areas. He rarely does this for self-indulgence; but rather to get things done. He takes no sadistic pleasure from messing with people.

Due to the nature of his position; Torriku has to be overly careful in his everyday life. Not only does he have to look out for external threats to both the village, the Raikage, and himself; but, also internal ones from the villagers and even his own men. Some would call this being paranoid, but it's not paranoia if he is right. This also leads him to be rather secretive about a lot of things, although not antisocial. Any questions that he feels are too dangerous to answer he will either ignore them or give an answer to a question that wasn't asked and divert the conversation. He rarely gets blunt about it, but he will if he has to; even to the Raikage.

Torriku is extremely loyal to the Village and will protect it with his life. He sees the village as not some buildings on the side of a mountain, but the people within it; including the Raikage and other elders within the village.

Torriku is also a bit of a smartass to everyone. If he feels that your question is a stupid one, he will mock you.
