Description of the character's appearance:Image by demand (but I still think it's lazy ass thing to do)
He stands quite tall, often donning the jounin uniform. Skin pale, maybe a tone darker than ivory along with the clans unique appearance trait - golden eyes. His hair grows a bit below the half oh his back, which he often wears loos or combed back, falling from under his black beanie, which he wears most of the time. In formal occasions that forbid wearing of a headdress, he was often seen having a thick braid. He's a man of fit posture, neither too lanky nor too athletic, aiming more into an average shinobi build in terms of appearance. Often seen with hands donning plated, fingerless gloves with bandages peering from beneath them, sinking in jacket sleeves. Similar to forearms, he covers his shins with bandages that bind his trousers at the bottom, sealing them and preventing from anything to "flap around" as he states. As of his headband, he tends to wrap it around his left arm in an armband style, which blends with the jacket pretty well. When out on a mission, he often wears a desert scarf tucked under the flak vest, covering his face and nose. Sometimes when seen during a leisurely moment - he wears either a black turtleneck or a simple black robe made of silk with the family mon imprinted on his back.
Description of the character's personality:To fully grasp the complexity of his nature, one would have to devote a big hunk of own life to analyse this man and give a clear answer about what is truly driving him in life. Although he won't show off much of what dwells inside him, one could at least try to describe the role he tries to fit in. One could easily say he's a collected and composed man, who tries to stay as an arbiter and overseer of events - as often as possible. Some say he doesn't really want to get involved in important matters, while others describe this trait as some sort of profound wisdom. Those who worked together with him during missions and various tasks often describe him as a silent tactician, reserved in action and a person who prefers subtlety and stealth instead of a full-scale assault. He'd rather lure an enemy into a devious, well prepared trap and watch him suffer greatly before capture or dealing a swift and efficient death. It is said that he's one of those ominous sort. Not much of a conversationist, at least not with those whom he doesn't trust enough. He's a loyal subject to his superiors, always trying to accomplish given task without further hesitation or asking needless questions. Some would say he is somewhat withdrawn from the social activities, since he's rarely seen during any sort of public events that doesn't include him doing his job. Prefers to stay and relax at home, where he claims to have everything he needs. As stated by himself - a resourceful man of simple needs.
Description of the character's history:From the very beginning of his life, he was branded as an omen. His mother died during labor and he was presumed dead himself, until an old mountain hag that served his clan for generations came by and offered to bargain with the Shinigami to restore the only heir to life. Yamato Hadokawa - his father and current clan leader - was hesitant at first, but it was family honor and well-being at stake. The hag didn't asked for much, her request was merely to give her a small patch of land for her own, and not bother her with trivial matters. Yamato and the councilmen of the clan agreed to bestow a small patch of land to the hag and leave her be for time being. Thus the ritual begun and she bargained long with the spirits of the underworld and god of death himself, only to bring the only child back to the material plane. As soon as the ritual was complete, the hag emerged with baby in her arms and gave it to his father. Although there was no corpse of the late mother and room in the mansion smelled of bitter herbs and fresh ash... All seemed almost too good to be true. The only stigma that the boy was given, were his white hair and horribly pale skin - a stigma of the Shinigami, permanent sign to show that he escaped death itself, branded for eternity. No one really knew what would that bring... But the boy was safe and sound.
Years have passed and the boy grew up, raised under the careful eye of his family. Even the clansmen that weren't fully aware of what happened that night were fearful of the young heir. His appearance was dreadful enough to strike fear in their hearts and those who witnessed the ritual had their tongues sealed with a forbidden seal to never speak of this event - even in afterlife. When the boy was big enough, he was sent to the Academy where he received proper education to soon become a genin. He never made any real friends, since most kids were too scared of him, and those who wished to harm him were soon prone to many disastrous events. Soon, most of his colleagues decided to just leave him alone and not to meddle in his affairs. After graduating the ceremony, he received his headband, which he promptly attached to his arm. Soon, he was assigned to Team 3, which was considered unlucky number by his Clan. Despite the odds - the boy prevailed up until the Chuunin exams. Due to high intelligence and combat prowess, he passed the evaluation successfuly and received the rank of Chuunin at his first attempt.
His years as a Chuunin could be considered as most succesful, since he had lots of opportunities to actually prove his worth not only to the Clan - as a succesful and worthy heir to his father Yamato, but also as a skillful shinobi who could serve and protect his village every single day. Due to his aptitude towards both genjutsu and bukijutsu, he was quite an opponent, and he was offered a job at defensive ANBU squad, at first - as a rookie. During his service in ANBU, he was moved to the division responsible of recovering and interrogation, which later gave him the nickname - black scorpion. During those times he used to carry a simple spear, often tipped with various, home-brewed poisons. Despite that, weapon proficiency was just a second thing, for his true strength lied in creating illusions and hallucinations, often leading an unsuspecting prey to an elaborate trap... Some survivors claimed to experience vivid, utterly horrible creations which could be described as "witnessing hell itself". Since those events, people were often afraid of looking him straight into eyes, afraid of sharing the fate of those he interrogated.
After years of service in ANBU, he decided to quit the interrogation and recovery cell and with a written recommendation, he undertaken Jounin examination to advance in rank. Due to years of excellent service and high skill, he received the rank and was soon asked about his upcoming occupation. The outcome was... Odd at best, since he asked to become a sensei - to teach the younger generations of shinobi, and guide them in their development.
