Animal Familiar:
Name: Kegawa
Species: Nin-Dog
Gender: Female
Appearance:
Kegawa's Personality: Being a talking wolf-dog, Kegawa has picked up a few personality traits from her owner and vice versa. Kegawa is a fun-loving wolf-dog that loves to take on challenges eagerly. She knows how to trash talk and add in her two cents, but when she is called on to engage a job, she normally knows how to come through in the clutch. Kegawa also cares very much for Baito and would give her life to protect him, just as he would her and like most Inuzuka clan members and their canines. She hates following the rules most of the time, unless someone with authority is around and really hates going to the vet unless Hana is the one treating her.
For the most part, as Baito's partner, she is a perfect fit for the boy's "get in your face" behavior by easily being able to calm him down at times where he's about to lose it, and also being able to keep up with him with support is needed.

FACE & HAIR:
Baito looks slightly different than the majority of the clan, with the two things that stick out the most, as the first thing that is noticeable is the boy's spiky blond hair, which is very different in the fact that it isn't darker, and the other thing is that he lacks the beast eyes from the clan, in which both things can be attributed to the fact that his mother is not of the clan and he inherited a few genes from her.
BUILD:
Baito is tall enough to be considered lanky as he is six feet tall and doesn't have a whole lot of defined muscle on him in his arms and chest. Despite this, the boy is actually quite athletic and can hold his own in any scuffle. Baito has built up his legs more than any part of his body and can move quickly around, covering a lot of ground with Kegawa.
CLOTHING:
Baito wears a few different types of clothing depending on what he is up to, if on a mission or just hanging around casually. When on a mission, Baito usually wears the standard issue Jounin vest with a long sleeve black shirt and long black pants with the sandal-shoes and will have his forehead protector on normally and the mesh protective material underneath the vest and shirt.
On casual occasions however, Baito wears a jacket that bares a close resemblance to the jacket that his cousin Kiba often wore in his Genin days. Underneath the jacket, Baito wears a short sleeved Black shirt and long black pants with the sandal-shoes, forehead protector wrapped around his right arm.
SPECIAL MARKINGS:
Just like any other Inuzuka, Baito possesses the red fang-shaped markings on both sides of his face to signify his bloodline inclusion in the clan. He has a scar across his right arm in result of an early life accident. Baito also has a small wolf tattoo on the upper right portion of his back.
.:Personality:
Like most Inuzuka, Baito has a few personality traits that are similar to the rest of the clan. He tends to often have a short explosive temper when provoked, and sometimes jumps to decisions much too quickly. Baito has a deep connection to his clan and nin-dog and would die to protect either one. The boy is very stubborn and it takes a lot for him to step away from a battle as he loves the thrill of a good fight.
Baito often looks at himself as a leader, making a lot of decisions in tactical situations unless someone checks him by offering up something better, which tends to happen a lot. His humor keeps him from being totally serious even though he won't pass up an opportunity to crack a sly joke when he's got the chance, showing his lighter side.
Baito can also be very mischievous at times as well, coming up with different pranks against people from time to time. In fact, during his academy days, he was known mostly for that, pranking the teacher and many students that either got on his bad side or had just gotten in his way.
The boy has many hobbies to keep him busy and away from trouble as well. When he's extremely bored, Baito will often just bust out in a good run, working his way around the village several times during this. Baito also enjoys a decent game of Shogi, in which he is ok at, not spectacular, but can often challenge someone very well at the game. Finally, when all else fails, he's normally showing off to mess around and attract attention, which is something he's very good at with his somewhat loud mouth.
.:Jutsu:
Beast Human Clone [Jûjin Bunshin]
---------------
A modified version of a Transformation Technique, this jutsu allows a user to transform their animal companion into a perfect copy of themselves. When combined with the Four Legs Technique, the user and the animal become virtually impossible to tell apart, since both act equally animalistic. Like any transformation, the jutsu can be broken by identifying and attacking the animal, thus dispelling the transformation. This jutsu is often followed by the Dual Piercing Fang.
Double Piercing Fang [Gatsûga]
---------------
The user and his partner spin at a ferocious speed and deliver many powerful beast-like attacks when contact is made with the target. The force of this attack is strong enough to drill through stone. This attack can be done alone, although it is less effective.
Double Wolf Fang [Garôga]
---------------
After the canine familiar uses Dynamic Marking to mark a target, both the canine and owner use Man Beast Combination Transformation: Double-Headed Wolf to become a large, two-headed wolf. The two then perform a much more powerful Double Piercing Fang attack. Like the lesser version, they spin rapidly to attack their target. Unlike the previous version, however, they move so rapidly that they can't see where they're going, hence the reason for the earlier Dynamic Marking, which allows them to track their opponents via the distinctive scent.
Four Legs Technique [Shikyaku no Jutsu]
---------------
This technique grants accelerated fighting instinct. By stretching chakra around one's entire body and moving on all fours, one obtains super-high speed, like that of a wild animal. Their nails grow to claw-like length and and they grow noticeably stronger. The form is best suited for hit-and-run tactics.
Man Beast Combination Transformation [Jinjû Konbi Heng]
---------------
Using a modified form of a Combination Transformation, Kegawa and Baito transform themselves into a large, two-headed wolf. In this form they can use Dual Wolf Fang.
Piercing Fang [Tsûga]
---------------
The user spins at a ferocious speed and delivers many powerful beast-like attacks when contact is made with the target. This attack is done alone but it can be done with a partner, making it more effective
Dynamic Marking [Dainamikkumākingu]
---------------
This jutsu involves a canine companion urinating on a target, allowing both user and the canine to track it by scent. This is a prerequisite for using Double Wolf Fang, since the speed of the technique makes it impossible for the user to see while using it. This jutsu can also be performed while user and animal companion are using Man Beast Combination Transformation: Double-Headed Wolf. Used by the Animal.
Earth Release: Double Suicide Decapitation Technique [Doton: Shinjū Zanshu no Jutsu]
---------------
The user, emerging from the ground below the target area, pulls down the opponent so that only their head is above ground. Unable to move, the opponent can easily be decapitated or tortured.
Transformation Technique [Henge no Jutsu]
---------------
Given all the missions ninja are assigned to - battle, intelligence gathering, diversions - this is a priceless ninjutsu. It is typically used to change into people other than oneself, but one also has the ability to change into animals, plants, and even inanimate objects like weapons. This gives this technique an abundance of uses. The transformation of a skilful shinobi will be exactly like the genuine article, so it will be impossible to tell the two apart. On the other hand, a transformation performed by an inexperienced person will have obvious discrepancies. It will be impossible to deceive anyone with it. This is one of the most basic ninjutsu, as such most shinobi know how to perform it.
Rope Escape Technique [Nawanuke no Jutsu]
---------------
A basic technique taught at the Academy. It allows a ninja to free themselves if they have been tied up. How this is done is unknown.
Cloak of Invisibility Technique
---------------
This technique allows a ninja to take a cloak or a piece of cloth and blend into an object, making them invisible. Konohamaru uses this technique constantly in the beginning of the series to try and fool Naruto Uzumaki, but uses poor disguises, such as square rocks with eye-holes, cloaks that are incorrectly patterned or rotated the wrong way around, or simply not covering himself completely, thus betraying the illusion.
Body Replacement Technique
---------------
With this technique, one replaces their own body with a block of wood or some other object, the moment an attack lands. This creates an optical illusion, making the enemy think the attack was successful. From this, the user can use the lapse in the enemy's attention to attack or flee from the battlefield. Explosive tags can be attached to the replacement for an added surprise. It's a basic ninjutsu even taught at the Academy, but it's a useful art that can be applied in variety of situation.
Act of Surface Walking
---------------
This training method is used to gain better chakra control. To do this, the user has to be emitting a constant stream of chakra from the bottom of the their feet and using the repellent force to walk across the water's surface. This technique is more difficult to master than the Tree Climbing Practice, because the amount of chakra that needs to be emitted changes constantly.
Act of Tree Climbing
---------------
This is a training method used to gain the basic skills of chakra control. This training involves focusing a fixed amount of chakra to the bottom of one's feet, and using that to climb a tree without using one's hands. If the stream of chakra is too weak, the user will lose their footing on the tree and fall off. If it is too strong, the user will be pushed away from the tree, causing the bark of the tree to break around the point of contact and the user to fall
.:History:
Baito was born on December 15th on a cool and blustery day to his father Koji, a decent level Jounin and his mother Kyri, who was a waiter at a Konoha restaurant before earning enough money to begin her own clothing shop as she designs many different types of clothing. It was almost destiny for Baito to be different and go on his own way, considering the two differing parents and their mindsets.
From an early age, Baito has shown a very adventurous and stubborn mood, documented when he was 3 years old, stumbling around the house and finding some shiny object...which happened to be a kunai that his father accidently left out in the young boy's reach. By the time his mother tried to chase him down and get the object away, Baito had fallen to the ground with it during the chase and cut his right arm, leaving a large scar across the width of his arm that sticks with him today.
Quickly turning into a rough and tumble little Inuzuka boy, Baito was beginning to develop a mouth that could keep up with how quick he was beginning to move on his feet. At age 5, Koji was already showing his young son how to engage in close quarters hand to hand fighting, whether it be a playful session or an at speed exercise that entertained the boy.
The next year, Age 6 brought a huge step in Baito's life, as his parents saw the boy outgrowing their small training tactics and promptly sent him off to the academy to polish his techniques and his chakra control during this period. The first year of school went well for the boy and he often had passing grades, nothing exceptional, but good for someone who didn't care much about going to school.
Age 7 brought Baito's Nin-dog companion Kegawa into the picture, as the clan had determined that the boy was more than ready to take on the task of taking care of one of the clan's bred dogs. Baito was lucky enough to get paired up with a wolf'-dog, one that through the years was able to pick up on human speech and communicate in this way, which was huge for Baito to begin this relationship with his new "partner" and build on it.
Baito graduated even with decent grades at the age of eleven, along side of a Hyuuga Boy and Aburame Aya. The Hyuuga boy, named Kyoten, was from the branch family and he was most of the time hyper active towards the other two on his team. The three of them got a long just fine from the start, being able to communicate fairly decent and put their minds together to help each other out. Their teamwork abilities were tested many times as numerous other teams took shots at them and considered them weak and simply just another "Tracking/Scouting" Team.
When he was thirteen, their sensei signed them up for the Chuunin Exam. The first part was easy for all three of them. Kyoten used his Byakuga, while Aya used her bugs to gather the needed answers from the Chuunins that was acting like Genin. Baito used Kegawa and managed to get the right answers with this method. The team easily passed the first part.
The second part, however, Baito, Kyoten, and Aya were picked on for being a weak team. This was evident as a team of Rain Ninja quickly singled the trio out to take their scroll. With good teamwork and Aya's use of her Shadow and Bug Jutsu, they were able to keep their scroll safe and gain the Rain Ninja's to get through the second part with only a minor bump or bruise.
The last round of the Exams didn't go nearly as well as Baito could have dreamt however, getting disposed of by his opponent in the first round, which happened to another Rain Genin. To this day, Baito still grumbles about this fact if brought up. Baito did however stay around to support his other teammates through their matches, getting a helluva worry when Aya took on Aiuya, in which the images of that fight will never leave his head. Despite not being promoted to Chuunin after the exam, he, Aya and Kyoten were all promoted to the rank the next year.
At eighteen, Baito took the Jounin exam, which meant that he would be away from his friends and family for a while during the strenuous test of skills. The boy had learned how to not let his anger take him over as much as it has in the past, and how to think more clearly on the battlefield, to be a better leader. After nearly three months, Baito returned as a Jounin and only trained harder aftet this due to his passion of wanting to be on an ANBU Squad.
During the last few years, Baito and Kegawa have been training very hard on long distance attacks and defense as these are mostly his weaknesses and the key to getting ahead in this life is minimizing those weaknesses. He also changed his passion from ANBU to helping those who needs tracked or someone skilled in Search and Rescue missions. Doing this and staying together with his teammates has really allowed him to become a stronger ninja.
