Name: Yamatori Ren

Aliases/Nicknames: Aka, The Dancing Wind

Age: Part I (21) Part II (23) Blank Period (24-37) Boruto (38)

Sex: Female

Gender: Female

Sexuality: Straight

Kekkei Genaki: N/A

Chakra Natures: Wind, Water, Yin

Nationality: Land of Water

Rank: ANBU

Appearance: Tall, long black hair tied into a bun or ponytail, and black eyes. Wears a gray, knee length kimono with long sleeves and thigh high black sandals. Under her kimono is a mix of black mesh and wraps. When in civilian garb, Ren carries a large fan with 4 purple cloud designs on it. When in Hunter-nin uniform, she has two small hand fans on her thighs.

Family: Ren’s father Saishū is a doctor, and her mother Tori is an interrogator. Ren had an older sister Ro who was killed during the Third Great Ninja War. The family is very close when behind closed doors, but understand how secretive each member must be due to their duties.

Occupation: Hunter-nin, ANBU Commander

Relationships: Ren is still friends with her old teammates, and she has a love hate relationship with Hidan and Kakuzu because she is constantly getting in the way of their bounty hunting, but gives Hidan a very good fight in the process. In truth, Ren's relationship with Hidan and Kakuzu are borderline treason, but she gets the job done so no one really looks that closely.

Personality: For a while, Ren presented herself as cold and serious, and that tends to be the case when speaking with those of high rank and outsiders. Her family and students, however, get to see the more laid back, joke cracking side of Ren. She has become quietly prideful of her abilities and will play with her food if she's able to. The longer the opponent fights, the more intel to get, after all.

Ren was born seven years before the start of the Naruto series to Yamatori Saishū and Tori. Her older sister Ro trained her to be a lethal ninja in order to survive Kirigakure’s graduation system. However, that became unnecessary when the process was retired thanks to the actions of Zabuza. Ren was too young to be involved in the Third Great Ninja War, but her sister lost her life in the fighting. Unknown to her at the time, her older sister had been Aka in the Genshoku Program. With her death, Ren was chosen to be the sucessor and was placed into the program.

Ren graduated from the academy and was put into Dōkutsu Kita’s, a skilled Genjustu user, team with Yuki Bachi, a staunchly loyal shinobi to Kirigakure and future head of the Hunter-nin, and Tone Asari, a generally stable shinobi who became a powerful and diverse beast summoner. The group had a rough start together but after finding themselves dealing with B and even A ranked missions, quickly became Chūnin. Ren had made it to the final match in the Third Exam, but was defeated by Uzumaki Taro from the Land of Rice Paddies. The group somehow stayed together after many years, with all three being part of the Genshoku Program.

While on several missions, Ren was forced to battle with Hidan and Kazuku. She could never defeat them permanently and they could never get close enough to take her down. So, Hidan, Kakazu, and Ren came to a truce. If they were hunting the same target, Hidan and Kakuzu would retrieve the bounty first and, once the money was counted, Ren would steal it back. It was a dangerous game, but they managed to hit the jackpot each time.She was upset at hearing that the two had been killed, and even more so that Kakazu was revived during the Fourth Great Shinobi War. Ren fought against the white Zetsu instead of fighting her old “friend”. After the war, she continued to be a Hunter-nin, only stepping back when her village needed another teacher for genin squads. So far, she's trained four of them, all slotted to join the Genshoku Program should they need to. After her fourth team became Chunin, Ren became the Anbu Commander under Chojuro.

Abilities: Ren has a wind chakra nature, making her an ideal fan user. With her large fan, she uses brash attacks that cover large distances. These are meant to cause as much damage as possible, whether to her enemies or to the surrounding landscape. With her small fans, she focuses on quick and precise attacks, only used while on Hunter-nin missions in order to bring down her targets as quickly and silently as possible. Ren can also create vacuums with her attacks, drawning all the air out of the spaces around her for her jutsus. This has allowed her to have an almost impenetrable shield against all Wind and Ice style attacks, with her vacuum removing the Wind Nature. Wind disappears and Ice is turned into harmless water.

She can summon peregrine falcons, either as scouts or messengers.

As a shinobi of Kirigakure and the Land of Water, Ren has trained in Water style, becoming quite proficient. This has allowed her to create a psuedo Ice Style, but could only do so with her fans. Upon training to learn Yang Release, she was finally able to produce Ice Release without aid.

Art by Nox on Facebook Name: Uchiha Karasu

Aliases/Nicknames: Little Crow

Age: Part I (1) Part II (3), Blank Period (4-17), Boruto (18)

Sex: Female

Gender: Female

Sexuality: Unsure

Kekkai Genkai (if any): Sharingan

Chakra Natures: Fire, Lightning

Nationality: Land of Medicine, Land of Fire 

Rank: Kage

Relationships: Karasu is very close to her senseis and uncle. She has several children with different people, never bearing them but having Orochimaru create them through combing hers and others' DNA.

Personality: Karasu is quiet, aware of her father’s and family’s legacy and afraid to be too out there. Training with Naruto, Sasuke, Killer B, and her other teammates has allowed for her to come out of her shell. She grows into a strong and confident shinobi, a trusted and feared Kage, and a perfect Jinchuriki. Karasu is a powerful force that stays quiet until she's needed to speak.

History: Karasu was a surprise to both her mother and Itachi. She was raised adjacent to the Akatsuki until after the Fourth Great Ninja War when her mother sought refuge with the Hidden Leaf village. With her Uchiha bloodline, Karasu was sought after by many when she was young, eventually being stolen away when she was five. Akatsuki loyalists placed Matatabi, the Two Tails, into her in order to control both the Biju and the young Uchiha. Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke rescued her and brought her home. She trains under Naruto and Kurma to learn how to be a Jinchuriki and spends time with Sakura taking care of baby Sadara.

Her seal is extremely complicated, levels upon levels of genjutsu, fail safes, traps, a psychological maze to keep Karasu and Matatabi from sharing Chakra easily. It's a long and arduous process to break and undo all of the seal's levels. Once the genjutsu that caused Matatabi to be abusive towards Karasu is broken, it alerts the group who stole the two in the first place.

After passing her chunin exams, Karasu approaches Orochimaru for training, much like her uncle did before her. In order to bypass the maze, Karasu is branded with a curse mark. This allows for her and Matatabi to transfer chakra freely between each other while it's activated. During this time, the group who sealed Matatabi in Karasu reappears, trying to take their weapon back. Through her own skills and allies, they're able to be defeated.

After she becomes a jonin , the seal is finally completely undone and broken, allowing for Karasu and Matatabi to become a perfect Jinchuriki.

For a few years, Karasu takes to wandering the nations, wanting to truly understand who she is.

Karasu reforms the Akatsuki, turning them into a group for protection and peace, not war and peace. They act as Team Zero for the Allied Shinobi World.

Later on, after years of leading the Akatsuki, Karasu creates her own Hidden Village, transforming the Mountain's Graveyard. The Village Hidden in the Bones within the Land of Ghosts. She stands as the Yūreikage.

Name: Kosho

Aliases/Nicknames: Little Snake

Age: Actual age unknown, appearance late twenties

Sex: No

Gender: Yes

Sexuality: Pansexual

Kekkai Genkai (if any): Snakes?

Nationality: Land of Sound

Rank: Jonin

Appearance: Pale purple hair, yellow snake eyes, with small facial tattoos on a pale form. They wear a short is cloak over themself most of the time, normally light or off grey. Underneath is the more traditional green and blue kimono top and baggy black pants that reach their knees. Said pants are tucked into the knee height black ninja shoes. Family: Kosho's blood family is quite possibly bigger than they realize, being that they're a clone of Orochimaru and every other clone of Orochimaru is therefore their defacto family.

Occupation: Medical-nin, Acting Kage Rank: Jōnin, Otokage Relationships: Kosho has taken a liking to anyone who wishes to learn or gain power, by whatever means. They're closest relationship is with their parent, but is then followed by the members of the new Sound Four. Personality: Kosho is much of a bookworm who’s fairly inquisitive and wants to learn as many medical techniques as possible. Their understanding of humanity has grown along with their father’s. However, Kosho is fairly friendly and respectful when need be. History: Child to Orochimaru, Kosho predates Log and Mitsuki. They were Orochimaru’s first real attempt at having a “child they cared about”. Growing up Kosho was subject to many of their parent’s experiments but were able to voice their opinion about undergoing which ones. They grew up with a strong understanding of who they were and what was allowed to be done to their body. As their interest in medical ninjutsu grew, Orochimaru helped teach them, which led Kosho to essentially replace Kabuto in that field. Over the years, they’ve assisted their parent in not only running the Land of Sound, but also with research. They’ve learned many kinjutsus from their parent as well as surpassing their parent in being able to become a Sage.

As the new leader of the Sound Five, Kosho was chosen to to lead Team Kosho, with Odorune and Uchiha Karasu.

As Orochimaru wants to focus on gaining knowledge and not running the village, Kosho is chosen to become Otokage.
