History/Background Story:
Atsuko was brought up a part of the Nara clan, in Konohagakure. To her parents, Annu and Maaku, she was their only child. She a a very plain childhood, neither completely obedient or a miscreant. She enrolled in the academy of Konohagakure aged ten. Even at that age, her peers regarded her as a popular icon. She was cool, calm and collected – with talent to boot. As a favoured daughter of the Nara clan, she was of course, good at using their Kekkei Genkai - Shadow control. When she graduated the academy two years later, she began to train with it.

She was assigned to a team almost immediately after leaving the academy. It took her a while to adjust to the new life and her teammates. They found her to be somewhat arrogant and vain. She worked hard to fashion a new image – a quietly confident young woman. After settling in, she was an asset to her team. Unlike some of the other teams of her generation, hers stayed the same (same Genin and Jounin) until she was highly ranked enough to regularly complete missions on her own. Her sensei put her up for the Chuunin exams when they next came around.

She progressed to the finals, even to the final fight. She lost, but impressed the elders enough to earn the rank of Chuunin. Noticing that her skills needed sharpening for this new role, she spent six months in solid training, even forsaking her team. When she returned, her skills were impressive. Along with her team, she began embarking on more dangerous missions.

Eighteen months later, she attained the rank of Jounin. She now seeks a team of her own, to guide just as well (if not better) than her sensei did for her.

Roleplay Sample:
It was the end of her first year as a Jounin. Frankly, Tsukiko thought, it hadn't been that different from being a Chuunin. She hadn't been on many Jounin-level missions, nor had she been given a team. Granted, she was still pretty new to it. She was looking forward to that - having a team. When she had been a part of one, she had had some of the best times of her entire life – after settling in, however. Now, more separated from her friends than ever before, she wondered how much she'd actually enjoy being a Jounin.

As these thoughts swam around in circles in her head, Tsukiko heard her footsteps soften. She stopped to look down, and then around her. Grass had cushioned her feet. "That was quick." She muttered, sitting down. This part of the lake was always quiet. Tsukiko found she could write her stories and poems here without interruption. She took a few crumpled bits of paper and a pencil from her pocket. For the first time in that day, she smiled. "It's not so bad." She murmured.

---

A few hours later, the young Jounin folded up the paper, the ink scribbled across it now dry. Sliding it back into her pocket, she stood up and stretched. The sun was beginning to set, and she was needed elsewhere. Before even taking one step, she stopped. She could hear commotion not far from her. She began to run towards the noise. It wasn't long before her eyes picked out the source from quite a distance. Speeding up, she arrived to a scene of broken market stalls and a seven-man brawl. She knew none of these men had any combat training, so this would be a doddle. Analyzing the situation, she moved from one man to the other in the order she had figured to be the quickest. A palm strike on the first's spine, another on the second's neck, one, two, three more to each of the people in turn. Sweeping the last off of his feet with a kick, she straightened up and stared at them. "Clear this mess up. I don't know or care what this was about." She turned heel and strode away, unable to hide a grin.

Rank: D
Elements: None
Description: This jutsu paralyzes an opponent, leaving them open for attack. This is considered a signature jutsu of all ANBU members.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Utsusemi no Jutsu (Projection Technique)
Rank: C
Elements: None
Description: Using this jutsu, the user can project their voice from various points in a specific area in a manner similar to ventriloquism. The user does not need to speak to transmit the sound, so tracking them by sound is impossible. Those in the area where the voice is being projected at will hear a resonating echo, as well as a more ominous undertone.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Kiru Bansho: Boka no Jutsu (Leech All Creation: Attack Prevention Technique)
Rank: B
Elements: None
Description: Using this jutsu, the user can merge with another object and take on its properties to avoid any damage. In the manga, Orochimaru uses this to merge with a tree just before his battle with his former student, Anko Mitarashi. He, however, does not give it a name.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Kai (Release)
Rank: B
Elements: None
Description: Forming a single hand seal, the user is capable of avoiding the effects of or escaping from a Genjutsu. The more powerful the Genjutsu, the more difficult it is to avoid or escape from.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Kage Bunshin no Jutsu (Shadow Clone Technique)
Rank: B
Elements: None
Description: Similar to the Clone Technique, this jutsu creates clones of the user. Unlike the Clone Technique, these clones are actual copies, not illusions. The user's chakra is evenly distributed among every clone, giving each clone an equal fraction of the user's overall power. The clones are capable of performing jutsu on their own and can even bleed, but will usually disperse after one or two solid blows. Unlike other clones, the Byakugan can’t detect them because the clones have the exact same amount of chakra and aren't made from any other substance, making them indistinguishable from the actual person. Any experience the clones gain during their existence is transferred to the user once they are dispersed.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Shuiken Kage Bunshin no Jutsu (Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique)
Rank: A
Elements: None
Description: A modification of the Shadow Clone Technique, the user throws one shuriken at the victim and then uses this jutsu to create multiple copies of the shuriken to make the attack more powerful.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Youma no Jutsu (Ghost Technique)
Rank: A
Elements: None
Description: The user's body becomes transparent, and his/her molecules disperse, allowing their body to pass through solid objects. Attacks do not harm them when this is in effect. However, it can only be sustained for a very short amount of time, or it will do permanent damage to the user's biological structure - either killing them and disfiguring them permanently.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Jutsu Sho (Technique Neutralize)
Rank: A
Elements: None
Description: This jutsu cancels or impedes the occurring of the opponent's technique. It uses the same amount of chakra as the jutsu it intends to cancel. The user must be within fifteen metres of the target using the technique.
-------------------------------------------------------

Elemental techniques

-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Hibanaku (Spark Kick)
Rank: D
Elements: Fire
Description: This simple Fire technique requires no hand signs, only a concentration of chakra to one foot. The user will lift their foot and give it a gentle scuff-kick against the ground, producing a single spark capable of igniting flammable material.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Hosenka no Jutsu (Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique)
Rank: C
Elements: Fire
Description: This jutsu sends multiple balls of fire at a target. It is also possible to hide shurikens within the fireballs, creating an unexpected secondary surprise attack.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Karyuu Endan (Fire Dragon Flame Projectile)
Rank: B
Elements: Fire
The user blows a large jet of fire from their mouth.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Haisekisho (Ash Product Burning)
Rank: A
Elements: Fire
Description: Unlike other fire-based jutsu, this jutsu allows the user to breathe out a cloud of superheated ash capable of causing third-degree burns. Because it is ash and not flame, the ash remains in the air around the target, and therefore remains potent for a longer period. The ash is able to be ignited by a flame.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Shi Ude Kouen (Four Arm Flame)
Rank: A
Elements: Fire
Description: The user concentrates fire-natured chakra into their hands, then buries them into the ground. Almost immediately, four large, blazing tendrils burst from the floor (eight feet tall - that is also their range of attack). They can be controlled by the user, and inflict severe burns to whatever or whomever they touch. The user can also command them to individually 'explode' in flames.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Suiro no Jutsu (Water Prison Technique)
Rank: C
Elements: Suiton (Water)
Description: This jutsu is used to trap a victim inside a virtually inescapable sphere of water. The only downside to this technique is that the user must keep at least one arm inside the sphere at all times in order for the victim to remain imprisoned. Despite the fact that the prison is made up entirely out of water, and the target is unable to move while within it, the target is still able to breathe.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Koku no Jutsu (Black Rain Technique)
Rank: B
Elements: Suiton (Water)
Description: This jutsu creates a flammable black mist that forms a small cloud. The user can then move the cloud above their target and disperse it, covering the target in flammable oil.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Suishoha (Water Shockwave)
Rank: B
Elements: Suiton (Water)
Description: Using this jutsu, the user can spit out a large body of water and control it to attack their opponent.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Suijinheki (Water Encampment Wall)
Rank: B
Elements: Suiton (Water)
Description: This jutsu creates a water barrier to protect the user from any offensive attacks. The water can be formed from the mouth, hands or from a nearby water source.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Daibakufu no Jutsu (Great Waterfall Technique)
Rank: A
Elements: Suiton (Water)
Description: This jutsu is used to fire a massive spiralling blast of water at an opponent. Due to the force of the water the target will be fully enveloped by the water and at its mercy as is pulls them away.
-------------------------------------------------------

Taijutsu

-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Konoha Reppuu (Leaf Violent Wind)
Rank: D
Elements: None
Description: Using quickness and agility, the user performs a spinning kick to sweep his/her opponent off their feet.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Konoha Dai Senpuu (Leaf Great Whirlwind)
Rank: C
Elements: None
Description: This jutsu involves a powerful leap forward followed by a spinning kick with both legs in succession, the second kick being aimed lower in case the intended target ducks the first.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Tsuuten Kyaku (Bruising Sky Leg)
Rank: C
Elements: None
Description: The user will raise their leg in a high arc, and bring it thundering down causing massive damage to whatever it impacts.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Shuriken/Kunai Rendan (Shuriken/Kunai Combo)
Rank: C
Elements: None
Description: The user performs two punches then launches the enemy into the air with an uppercut. He/she then jumps in the air and punches the enemy towards the ground. Finally, throwing shuriken/kunai from above, the user pins the target to the floor and falls and stamps on the target.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Tsuin Totonoe (Twin Execution)
Rank: C
Elements: Depends on the clone used (In Kazihiro’s case, either 'None' [Shadow Clone] or 'Mokuton' [Wood Clone])
Description: The user creates a single corporeal clone (not ‘normal’ bunshin). The user darts past the opponent and strikes across their shoulders and neck with an outstretched arm. At the same time, the clone delivers a similar strike to the target’s stomach. Both the user and clone kick the back of the target’s knees (one leg for user, one for clone) forcing him/her to kneel. Finally, both user and clone spin and deliver a powerful straight kick, one to each side of the back, sending the target tumbling and skidding away.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Kage Buyo (Shadow Dancing Leaf)
Rank: C
Elements: None
Description: While the target is airborne, the user jumps in such a way as to appear below the target while following a similar trajectory through the air. Since the victim is airborne, he is in a vulnerable position to a more damaging attack.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Bunshin Taiatari (Clone Body Blow)
Rank: B
Elements: None
Description: The user creates numerous shadow clones to attack his/her enemy, which ends with the user or a clone diving at the target using a burst of chakra.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Rajiaru Shuurai (Radial Attack)
Rank: B
Elements: None
Description: Using chakra to boost their speed and agility, the user strikes the target with a punch or kick. As soon as the hit lands, the user moves (using boosted abilities) at untraceable speeds to another side of the target and strikes again. Eight further strikes are completed in this fashion. From above, it would seem as if an invisible circle of people are striking the target back and forth.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Tsuiraku Rendan (Crashing Combination)
Rank: A
Elements: None
Description: The user strikes the target with a full-force blow (heavy punch of kick), lifting them just off their feet and sending them flying into an obstacle. This is followed by a swift punch to the gut and a side-swipe to the head. The user picks the opponent up from the floor and strikes/throws them into the air. When the target falls, the user puches their exposed back with great strength, sending them rocketing away.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Gekiretsu Joushou Shuurai (Furious Rising Attack)
Rank: A
Elements: None
Description: The user fuels their emotions with powerful feelings (love, fury etc) and converts this into a mass of unstable chakra that surrounds their body. They then kick the target under the chin to send them rocketing into the air. The user leaps to catch up with the target before they are too high. The mass of chakra acts as a support for their feet as the following moves are carried out.
First, the user punches the target's stomach. This is swiftly followed by incredibly fast rising strikes to the torso. The user then grabs the target's foot and slings them to the floor.
To finish, the user pushes off using the 'chakra support' and flies down towards the grounded target, delivering a chakra-fueled punch as they land.
-------------------------------------------------------

Clan Techniques

-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Kage Mane no Jutsu (Shadow Imitation Technique)
Rank: C
Elements: None
Description: The signature move of the Nara family, this jutsu allows the user to control their own shadow and merge it with their opponent's shadow, combining them. This links the movements of the user with the target; the target is subsequently forced to make any movement the user makes. It is an extremely versatile technique, as the user can contract and change the shape of their shadow, potentially grabbing multiple targets at once. The degree to which the user's shadow can be stretched is limited by its total surface area. Using the shadows of other objects, the user can extend their shadow beyond its normal range.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Kage Mane Tacchi no Jutsu (Shadow Bind Touch Technique)
Rank: C
Elements: None
Description: This jutsu allows the clan member's shadow to cover their own body (instead of the ground). The user can then strike the target and extend their shadow over to the target's body where contact was made. Each strike attaches another shadow. With enough shadows attached, the user can control a limb or even the target's entire body in a similar fashion to the puppet technique - by just moving their hands. It is, however, considerably more difficult to initiate than the original Kage Mane.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Inpei Kage Shoji no Jutsu (Hiding Shadow Possession Technique)
Rank: B
Elements: None
Description: After capturing an opponent with the Shadow Imitation Technique, the clan member can then merge their own body with the target's shadow, and can then fully control the victim from within their shadow. To use other jutsu, the user must emerge. If they do so, the target regains control of themselves.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Kage Kubi Shibari no Jutsu (Shadow Neck Bind Technique)
Rank: B
Elements: None
Description: After capturing an opponent with the Shadow Imitation Technique, the user can then further extend their shadow up to the target's throat in the shape of a hand, which chokes them to death.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Kage Nui (Shadow Sewing)
Rank: B
Elements: None
Description: The user of this jutsu can extend their shadow and create multiple tangible tendrils for various purposes. Such purposes can include using them as stabbing weapons, rope for binding an opponent, or extra appendages for throwing weapons.
It can also be used simultaneously with Shadow Imitation Technique, so it is possible to split the shadow and use both jutsus at the same time.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Kage Mane Shuriken no Jutsu (Shadow Imitation Shuriken Technique)
Rank: B
Elements: None
Description: Using blades such as kunai, a Nara clan member can imbue his/her shadow chakra to create "pins" to stick their opponent in place. These knives absorb the chakra nature of the user and give off the nature's effect. In this case, the knives take on the Nara clan's shadow binding properties. By implanting the shadow chakra enhanced blade into the shadow of the target, they will be frozen in place; just as if they were caught in one of the clan member's extended shadow bindings.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Kage Kyuuin no Jutsu (Shadow Absorption Technique)
Rank: A
Elements: None
Description: First, the clan member enlarges their shadow. Then, similar to the Kage Nui, the large shadow rises out of the ground and forms a shadow-wall. Simple weaponry and any chakra-based attacks of lower level can be absorbed into the shadow. The clan member can then release the absorbed technique through another connecting shadow (or move the wall and release it elsewhere).
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Kage Bakuhatsu no Jutsu (Shadow Explosion Technique)
Rank: A
Elements: None
Description: This technique involves compressing the user's shadow into a small ball. This ball is then directed at a target and on command, explodes. The explosion fragments and burns just as a grenade would. Up to five of these bombs can be created at any one time.
-------------------------------------------------------
Name: Kage Funkei no Jutsu (Shadow Decapitation Technique)
Rank: S
Elements: None
Description: Once the target is caught in the Kage Mane, the user explodes the mass of shadow underneath into multiple thin spears. These 'spears' then curl over and pierce the target over and over, eventually physically pinning them to the ground. Finally, the clan member can simply walk over and kill the target. This technique can be applied to up to four different targets at a time.
