Nickname(s): The Death Dealer, the Dread Pusher, the Quick Kill Fix.
Gender: Male
Age: Thirty-Seven
Height: Six Foot Four.
Weight: One-Hundred and Ninety Seven Pounds, Six Ounces.

Origin: Otogakure (Village Hidden in the Sound)
Appearance: Gekimaru is a tall lightly paled man with grey hair. He has the standard look of a Otogakure Shinobi, but he also has use for a cape. Often Gekimaru's facial expression are dull and unmoving, except when he's dealing with some special brands of poison towards his enemies. Gekimaru does not wear Shinobi Tabis, instead he wears light cloth boots; he has had the unfortunate injury of being stabbed in the foot once.
Personality: Gekimaru is rather bland and boring outside of 'battle', but he does have a witty charm about him and he won't hesitate to laugh if he thinks something is coincidental funny or ironic. What Gekimaru enjoys the most is internal torture, of both the body and mind using poisons he has created from both ingredients and his own Chakra. This has become somewhat of a hobby, creating poisons and toxins used to deal death in varieties of ways to Gekimaru's opposition. Often when Gekimaru is involved in someone's death, it was through accidental consumption or exposure to one of his delightful poisons, making him a tricky person to have as a foe, since he rarely attacks directly.
Weapons: Senbon - Often coated with poison of a choice kind, these little needles are Gekimaru's choice weapon while in the field or for assassinations. In rare cases, Gekimaru was even able to hit a person from fifty feet away in a mere fraction of a second, though the target was stationary.
Summoning Scrolls - Gekimaru uses these scrolls to summon toxic gases into the field, often to blind his opponent or deal with multiple enemies. Gekimaru uses scrolls to as well store his more experimental poisons.
External Poisons - These death dealers and trouble causers are crafted from outside elements, such as plants, animals, and even choice foods and beverages. Unlike internal poisons Gekimaru creates using Chakra, these poisons are more limited to worldly use and aren't in as much of a constant supply.
Occupation: Shinobi - Jounin.
Jutsu:
Name of Jutsu: Toxic Gas Clone Technique
Rank: B-Rank
Class: (N/A)
Description: Using a gaseous substance in an area, it condenses the poison into a clone of an object or person. Upon any hard opposing force that contacts the object or cloned person's velocity, the gas bursts into its original form like a balloon popping.
Hand Seals: Ox, Ram, and Boar.
Name of Jutsu: Body Manipulation: Poison Production.
Rank: A-Rank
Class: Kage.
Description: By concentrating one's own Chakra and other times combining it with trace elements found in the body, the user can create poisons with different effects. The poison can be created in a liquid or gas and is often created through the mouth or even pores on the user's skin. The higher level of Chakra the user has, the more poison they can reproduce and as well in more varieties of poison. Often these poisons are related to body functions and cannot infect the user.
Hand Seals: Dragon, Serpent, Tiger, Boar, and Dragon.
Name of Jutsu: Ninja Art: Poison Combination and Contamination Technique
Rank: S-Rank
Class: Kage
Description: This technique can combine the use of Poison Production to taint the user's Chakra with a unique poison from the user. This causes most Jutsu to develop a poison quality to them naturally. Once this technique is used, it cannot be undone, the user can no longer use Healing Techniques or it would simply harm to others and himself. This also prevents the user from being infected by any kind of poison as well as make certain kinds of medicine unable to function in the user's system. All Jutsu must now start with a special hand sign unique to this technique.
Hand Seals: Unique Hand Seal.
Kirigakure no Jutsu (Hidden Mist Technique)
Description: A highly effective cover technique which blankets an area in a thick mist, confusing the senses of the enemy. Unless the user is trained to fight without the use of his vision, or has learned the technique to see through the mist, this doesn't not provide a significant combat advantage. The mist swirls about, confusing vision and distorting sound. Visibility is cut down to three feet. The mist lasts for 3 posts, plus an additional post for every 10 points in Reserves the user has. It is important to note that this mist is non-natural, and obstructs the view of even those using low level techniques (stage 3 or lower) to attempt to see through it.
Note: Gekimaru's version combined with his Ninja Art makes the mist slightly toxic to breathe in; others can usually tell since the mist actually reacts with taste buds. Effects from Poison Mist often are minor, but can be crippling if the person is in the mist too long. Poison gives the mist a different color.
Suijouki no Jutsu (Steam Technique)
Description: In this attack the user takes a deep breath in and then blows out a mass of billowing steam toward an enemy or group of enemies. It can cause severe burns, and a close range hit can be lethal. The size of the steam cloud is dependent on the user's statistics. The steam covers 5 cubic meters of area.
Note: The steam can be infused with a choice poison to be more effective, giving the steam a different color based on the poison infused with it.
Katon Housenka no Jutsu (Fire Release: Mythical Fire Flower Technique)
Description: A jutsu that sends multiple blasts of fire from the mouth, usually with one target in mind. Shurikens can also be hidden inside the flames, creating an element of surprise.
Note: Smoke created by this fire is often oddly colored and toxic. The fire itself will also usually be an odd color.
Katon Ryuuka no Jutsu (Fire Release: Dragon Fire Technique)
Description: A Jutsu that sends a stream of fire towards the opponent, originating from the users mouth. In some cases it has been seen to take on the form of a dragon. Capable of being used like a flamethrower, prolonged exposure has been known to transform boulders and cliff side’s into molten piles of magma.
Note: Genin can use the technique for up to two posts, Chuunin for three, and Jounin for five. As mentioned before, strength of the flame and prolonged exposure can prove devastating. Gekimaru's Ninja Art also makes the smoke caused from the fire to be toxic and a different color based on the poison t is infused with.
Biography: Gekimaru was taught to be a Shinobi from the day he could walk; he was born in the Land of Sound in one of the hideouts that made up the total of Otogakure. As one of the more brutal Shinobi Villages, somewhat even more so then the Bloody Mist of Kirigakure, Otogakure was a difficult place to grow up in. Most areas were dark, only lit by torches or small sources of lights and the people were just as heartless and cold that the environment they lived in portrayed. Gekimaru thrived as a Shinobi, even as an Academy Student, which was a very critical time in Otogakure. Only the toughest and hardy of the Academy Students in Otogakure had the potential to become Shinobi, the rest were killed or crippled. With Shinobi having to be more talented in this day and age, Otogakure needed to be harsh towards its future Shinobi. Only a choice few were able to advance to Genin and in Otogakure, often it was rumored one Otogakure Genin was worth two of any other Shinobi Village, only because of the harsh conditions.
Gekimaru was placed in a squad of three, with a Jounin leader; only three groups graduated to Genin that year, and unusually high number from the usual one or two groups. Since Otogakure needed to maintain its location, missions were often C-Rank for Otogakure Genin, and on the off occasion, B-Ranked. Otogakure Genin had to be raised tough, intelligent, and agile; they would be representing their village in future times and even the slightest flaw would mean negative judgement on Otogakure. To be better then villages like Konohagakure or Sunagakure, Otogakure had to make all contracts were carried out exactly to the word and without flaw. This started to give Otogakure a more efficient reputation, through their dark nature made them paraias among honest working people. Otogakure Shinboi like Gekimaru would take any contract, no matter which political ties, agreements, or truces were in place; they were willing to get the job done no matter the cost.
Gekimaru eventually achieved the rank of Jounin and was happy to lead his own group of Genin, treating them to the same harsh teachings the Jounin before him instilled on Gekimaru and his team. Gekimaru's Chunin years were short, but for that time he taught at the Academy. Gekimaru was given sensitive contracts, ones that needed the most subtly and presicion. Gekimaru would carry out these missions in his own flavor and style and of course to Otogakure tradition, right down to the last word of the intended mission contract. Gekimaru today serves as Special Jounin, able to work outside of groups and comeptle contract independantly, though he isn't restricted to work in groups.
