Elite Swordswoman: Akame's Coordination is counted as one tier higher while using Kenjutsu. Her Intelligence is counted as one tier lower for her Fuuinjutsu.
Appearance: Akame stands at 5'3" and is a healthy weight for a girl her age, not being too skinny nor having any excess body fat. It's obvious that she trains religiously and eats heartily to maintain this, with her shinobi training making her still developing body appear to be more womanly. She has the beginnings of a curvy figure, her hips having just begun to rotate in the last couple months.
Her hair is long, black, and has a very sleek appearance to it. It reaches down to her lower back, not quite to her waist, with her bangs sweeping over her forehead in a slightly messy fashion. She possesses beautiful scarlet colored eyes, them having mutated from their dark brown color she had as a young girl due to her body starting to absorb natural energy. Her face has a distinctly feminine shape to it, the baby fat not quite gone from her face giving away her youth.
She typically wears dark colored clothing to compliment her eyes and hair, having been told that they were her most attractive features ever since she was a little girl. There are some occasions where this is changed up and she wears lighter colored clothing, but most of the time she chooses dark clothing when in a casual or training setting. Kumogakure's flak jacket frequently adorns her person too, especially on missions. During missions, her favorite thing to wear is typically a black shirt with the flak jacket over it, short black tights with a skirt over them, and the common shinobi sandals. She'll have bandages wrapped around her legs and arms where weapon pouches are strapped, with a sword belt allowing for additional pouches.
History: Akame was born as the third child out of four to her mother and father just before the formation of Kumogakure. She has no memories of a time before the village, being far too young to have retained any of that information. Her clan was known for producing a number of strong shinobi due to their strict adherence to a warrior code and combat regimine all members go through even before they're old enough to enter the academy. Akame's upbringing was no different.
When she was four she began to train in the art of the sword, learning from her father the basics and then some more advanced techniques by the time she was seven. It was obvious to both her parents that Akame was a smart girl since she frequently took things apart and put them back together, asked way too many questions, and learned at a frightening pace. Her skill with a blade was evident even at such an early age, being able to take on fellow kinsmen four or five years her senior without much issue. She decided to enter the academy at the age of seven in order to hone her skill and learn others.
The academy proved to not be an issue, with Akame able to pass all the exams with good marks. She did excellent on the written exams, showcasing her natural intellect. She graduated at the age of nine, completing the four years course in half the allotted time. As a genin she was matched with an Inazuma and a kekkei genkai-less kunoichi. Shortly after, Akame would be on her first mission which was to help an elderly couple move their belongings across the country.
Her squad was ambushed, an occurance that was not expected, and in the panic that ensued Akame felt something inside of her click. Against her will, she embraced the full power of the bloodline she was unaware she possessed in the heat of actual combat and slaughtered everybody else present on the mission. Everybody, including the elderly couple, her squad mates, and her sensei. When she finally managed to regain control of herself, she was horrified at the carnage that she had created.
Akame returned alone to the village, covered in blood and in rags from her transformation. When her mind was read, the sensor reading it was annoyed to find that it was all just a scrambled mess of memories that made no sense. That was thanks to her kekkei genkai, the power of which she could now feel at all times coursing through her body. She was questioned manually afterwards, her saddness and anxiety over the situation more than evident. When a clear answer could not be gleaned, she was put on mandatory suspension as she recovered and was then reassigned to a new squad.
At first it was all she could do to control her newfound abilities, but after some time and much practice she was able to more precisely control the overwhelming power she possessed. Another incident like the one with her first squad has not happened, but she also has not used her power in that time in any official capacity. She is terrified to let loose, afraid she may kill another comrade should she do so.
She worked through her genin years quickly, gaining attention from the village authorities and being promoted to chuunin when she turned eleven. As a chuunin she was given more specific training that revolved around her talents. She focused much of her effort on kenjutsu and genjutsu at this stage in her life, honing her skill with those two skills above anything else. Her work gradually shifted to more covert operations, her high intelligence and skillset making her ideal for missions that required a more tactical approach than what was ordinarily called for. She became a shinobi more rooted in the shadows, her deeds going unnoticed by most as they were meant to be.
Akame succeeded as a chuunin for her entire stint at that rank, being promoted to jonin at thirteen. This made her one of the youngest to have attained the rank in the village's short history, and once she attained this rank her duties became much more secretive and much more difficult. She was good at what she did and the village made sure to use her well. Akame served faithfully for a year and a half, taking in stride all of the death she had caused. Many of her own friends and comrades had died, and these deaths were taking their toll on her health. She became ill after a while from keeping these feelings bottled up, becoming weaker and more prone to damage than she had been before until she just broke down one day and mourned for days straight.
She managed to recover and dove right back into shinobi work to keep her mind occupied, learning the skill of fuuinjutsu to help broaden her array of skills. She also began to use her bloodline in small doses, using it in short bursts when the extra bit of "oomph" could really turn the tables in her favor. It's not something she relies upon however, preferring to use brains over brawn in many cases.
Personality: Akame is a very smart but very shy girl. She's not one to just go up to people and start a conversation for the sake of conversation, but she isn't afraid to go out and do things either. She's just a little socially awkward is all. Akame is an inherently caring person, desiring that those she cares about live a long and happy life. Putting her life on the line for her friends, family, and village has never been an issue with her as she considers it an honor if one were to die protecting what they love. Now, this isn't to say she seeks death when she gets into a fight. More than anything, she wants everyone she knows to make it home alive while making it back herself.
She can come off as a little cold and callous when you first meet her as she tends to hide her true thoughts and emotions from people she doesn't know. Even when she gets comfortable around you, it can still be difficult to put one's finger on exactly what Akame is feeling at any particular time. Curiosity is in her blood as well. Akame is not afraid to ask a question she wants an answer to and can come off a little pushy at times. When performing her duties as a shinobi, her thought process becomes streamlined, cold, and ruthless. Her desire for her friends to make it home alive drives her to complete her assignments as well as she possibly can. She puts her own body in harms way often to help a comrade in need, hesitation not being a word in her vocabulary. If you're an enemy, you die. It's as simple as that to her.
When not on a mission or performing other shinobi tasks, Akame is a laid back type of person. She wants to enjoy life and wants others to enjoy it too, as she knows how fleeting it can be. The deaths of comrades effects her greatly, often for months, and Akame will let these emotions bottle up inside her for long periods of time. She is notorious for letting things eat away at her for a long time before finally breaking down and either taking her frustration out on someone else, or she'll just stop and cry for awhile. She tries to be kind to people on a daily basis, not being the type of person to purposefully be mean to anybody.

Roleplay Sample:
- Spoiler:
- The rain will help tremendously... Tsuyo thought to himself as he stared down upon the advancing legions of the Empire. Arms folded across his chest and with a leather trenchcoat covering his torso, Tsuyo scoffed at the sight as his eyes glimpsed the approaching storm. He wore no headband and no jacket now as he did when he was younger. No, his gray hair was cut to the scalp, leaving the duty of body hair to his face as long, gray locks extended from his rugged chin. Tired eyes watched the scene, the color of life having faded from them years ago with the death of many of his comrades. His body was old, but it was still strong and had a sounder mind guiding it than it had ever had. Scars etched what parts of his body were visible, as well as the seals of various weaponry fuuinjutsu.
This was a man of experience and hardship, of constantly fighting for something he had thought to be etched in stone. He shook his aged head as the figures of their army calculated in his mind. Ten-Thousand shinobi forces straight from Otogakure and Iwagakure provided the shock troops for the Legion's fifty-thousand strong infantry, five-thousand cavalry and 200 artillery cannons. Their troops were armed with the repeating rifle as well as a bayonet and a holy sign of their order. Their cavalry fought with cavalry rifles, shorter range but easier to handle in the saddle, as well as a revolver and a cavalry sabre. The artillery fired 2 cannonballs a minute per cannon, allowing for some fantastic cannonades. It was truly a frightening sight to behold.
Tsuyo sighed and turned his back on the forces, descended the hill he had been on with great agility and raced into the shinobi camp. Here, twenty-one thousand shinobi from what remains of Konohagakure, New Kirigakure and the majority of Kumogakure's military might combined under one banner. A banner to free themselves from oppression, one they were almost certain to lose. He approached the command tent after about ten seconds of jogging towards it. He passed many scared shinobi, many more crying or trembling as they recognized their fate. Behind this camp was a troop of one-thousand hand picked shinobi guiding the civilians who want no part of this Imperial conquest towards the port of Kumogakure to load them on ships and sail south, where they have a chance at escaping the Empire's clutches.
The command tent itself was rather plain, made of bare materials as that's all they had access to anymore. He entered it and found himself staring at his longtime friend and master of the Seven Tails, Seigi, surrounded by three top shinobi of the united army. Looking up, Seigi's one reveiled eye tugged up to indicate the whisper of a smile he had just given Tsuyo. He had aged almost as badly, his hair being ghost white despite the vitality of the beast within. Seigi was a man who demanded respect and was given it, something Tsuyo never quite needed. It was for this reason he was elected as prime commander of the shinobi forces after Kira and Hokuai were slaughtered allowing the shinobi army to flee after a disastrous battle. Akio Sarutobi had encountered the same fate, allowing the entire citizenry of Konohagkure to escape as he held off fifty-thousand enemy troops for two entire days, a testament to his nearly godlike stamina and combat abilities.
Seigi's face was tired, just as Tsuyo's was. Wrinkles tugged at the corners of his eyes and mouth and gave a few layers to his forehead as well. He still wore longer than usual kimono type articles of clothing to mask the seals he makes. He wears doubled sleeved kimonos now as well once he gained the ability to use two separate techniques at once, something few have ever managed before. "Out, please," Seigi said to the three men. The obeyed without hesitation, leaving the tent immediately. Tsuyo stepped forwards and cracked his shoulder. It had been about forty years since Seigi had beaten Tsuyo senseless in the streets of Konoha under the name Baku, leaving both men near sixty.
"Well, it looks about as shitty as you could imagine," Tsuyo said with brutal honesty. Seigi shook his head and let out a light laugh. He walked up to Tsuyo and laid a hand on his shoulder before pulling him in for a hug. "How's the technique goin'?"
Seigi smiled before setting his hand on Tsuyo's forehead. A mark appeared for the Flying Thundergod techinque, though this one was a little unique. It had a definitieve border around it along with text, an addition that was an unexpected result of the trials. "Only one person. It really sucks, you know, but I guess even the Kyuubi has its limit of chakra," he said. Tsuyo pressed his hand against his head, feeling the little bit of heat that had been etched there by the fuuinjutsu master in front of him. "We're losing our best hand to hand fighter for god knows how long, on the hope that it'll change this bullshit," he said in a more than disappointed tone of voice as his hand made a weak maneuver towards the foreigner camp. Tsuyo smiled and shook his head in acknowledgement.
"Their force is as large as last time, though there's ten-thousand shinobi instead of five. That'll pose a problem for some time, but from what I could see most of them were raw recruits who can barely hold a sword for all the training they got. Kohai made sure their forces took a hit, and it'll help delay the end now. How long until we can use it though? I need to know how much time I can buy you against the shinobi," Tsuyo explained. Alarms began to go off as the shinobi camp prepared itself.
Seigi grabbed his chokuto, one of the last and finest weapons made by the blacksmith Kyojin. His son became a fine shinobi, a student of both Seigi, Hokuai, and Tsuyo. He became second in hand to hand combat only to Tsuyo and placed high in ninjutsu as well. When Hokuai travelled back to the shinobi base after delaying their advance, before died he made sure Kyohin's son retrieved one of his Kamui eyes. He uses it even now to great advantage, becoming known as the "Ghost of Men" due to his invulnerability.
"Shi and Hikaru are currently gathering the Kyuubi's chakra into one pool so they can use it to start the technique. Once that's achieved, then Seadra herself will use her massive pool of personal chakra to keep the technique going for as long as she can, with Shi and Hikaru guarding her. We just need to buy them and you the time, as well as the civilians. Kitsune and Riku are both leading two companies of men on opposite flanks, and they're two of our best generals. I will be leading the center personally, and you will be leading the shock troops initially. Once you go back, Suke(Yukio's son) will lead them. If you manage to return in time for the final push, that would be a tremendous help but do not put the past at risk for it." Tsuyo listened to what very well may be his final orders with a grim determination. He stepped back and nodded, nerves steeled as they always had been.
Out of the initial group that united together to fight the Kaguya, Tsuyo and Seigi were the only two left alive. Tsuyo due to his near immunity to wounds and pain and Seigi due to Lucky Seven Chomei. "Make sure to tell them all to give them hell for me. I'm just gonna go create a few craters while ya' do," Tsuyo said with a smile. Bringing Seigi in for a hug, the two men stood and embraced for a couple seconds before loosening. Both men just nodded, knowing what was coming.
Stepping out of the tent, Tsuyo hurried to the front- left of the line where the enemy shinobi would be positioned at. He stood at the forefront of his men without saying a word becuase none was needed. Minutes passed with only the sound of marching from the Imperial army making any noise for miles. Even the vultures above were silent for the first time. It was as if nature itslef knew that this was a time for peace, as a great price was due to be paid on this day.
It was silent, and then, *boom*. A single cannon shot for aiming purposes. It came straight for Tsuyo's group, endangering his men. Grunting as his fist transformed into the scaly form of his curse mark, Tsuyo lept at the incoming projectile and fired a punch of such ferocity, it resounded for meters after the impact. The cannonball fell helplessly to the ground as Tsuyo landed gracefully, his fist returning to normal. "I guess it's time to have some fuckin' fun," he announced to his men. A great shout echoed behind him as the many men he had trained in the art of taijutsu and his monk arts screamed their adrenaline fueled cry of joy for the battle about to unfold. Tsuyo raised his own voice before beginning his mad run forwards. The entire monk group moved behind him, Seigi raising the rest of the military to advance on the Imperials. If they were to die, they were to die in glorious combat and not under rain of cannon fire.
It took a full minute before Tsuyo's men made it to the lines. Screaming and activating the seals on his fists, two armored gauntlets enfolded his entire arm and hand. They had the texture of a cheese grater, meant for inflicting massive amounts of damage while being able to withstand just as much or more. They were his signature weapon, after all. At the same time, the curse mark embedded upon his back would activate and envelop his body in a layer of scales that prevented all kinds of non chakra related harm. Essentially, taijutsu and any other blunt objects were useless while bladed weapons provided only minor damage. This combined with his mastery of Yamabushi made him a literal boulder, able to withstand monstrous amounts of damage despite his elderly body's natural fragility.
And it was this fragile old man that lept forwards first. He was met with pinpricks of kunai and shurkien and useless explosive tags. These things did not bother him, but the idea of them attakcing him that foolishly did. Men that foolish deserve to die. The first one to meet this fate would be a shinobi of average height with black hair and gorgeous blue eyes. She was a beautiful woman, but on the wrong side of the war. A Sohei strike from hell would hit her in the chest, literally blowing her entire body into half and sending a concussive shockwave the Tsuyo has learned to focus only forwards back into the ranks of shinobi. The first lines were torn apart from the impact, killing them instantly, while the ones for a ways back got off lucky with internal damage and maybe a missing limb or two. Tsuyo couldn't use punches like that very often, lest it shatter even his double armored fist.
Two-hundred and three men by his estimates had become casualties of that one strike, with over half dead. The rest of the monks came in behind him, each using their Sohei skills to strike the ground and send shards of debris and shrapnel towards the shinobi army at speeds most couldn't track very well. It was devastating, but not enough. Soon, Tsuyo and his monks found themselves facing the shinobi in devastaing combat. Tsuyo had no trouble ripping though them like they were nothing, but his students were not Tsuyo (imaging Madara against the shinobi alliance type shit). But he could feel himself being tugged. He knew that Seadra was about to give in and let the Kyuubi exhaust almost all of its chakra reserves. Tsuyo's time was almost up in this time frame. Just how long could he stay here though?
