Stats/Permission meme: WITH IMPORTANT NOTE!
Stats/Permission meme:
Name: Sakon and Ukon
Age: 14
Height: 5’1’’
Eyes: dark grey
Hair: silver
Medical info: formerly dead. Otherwise healthy. Will be prone to getting injured in fights but heals very quickly (more quickly than is normal at least).
Physical traits: Identical twins who share a single body most of the time. Ukon appears as a second head emerging from Sakon’s upper back when they are. Sakon’s hair parts on the left and his bangs cover his right eye. Curse seal is on the right side of his forehead. Ukon’s hair parts on the right and his bangs cover his left eye. Curse seal is on the left side of his forehead. They may occasionally switch who’s in control of their body but not often.
What's okay to mention: Anything is generally ok but if it’s likely to upset them badly it might be best to drop me a line first. READ NOTE BELOW ON THE SECRET AND REVEALING IT PLEASE.
Notes for the psychics: Two minds here. Kinda closely linked. Ukon is the more intelligent of the two though. They are viciously paranoid about just about everyone but don’t exactly have the best mental defenses.
Abilities: Primarily close combat taijutsu with other abilities in the area of seals and barriers. Databook says they’re both pretty good at ninjutsu too but they don’t really show all that many in canon. Oh, and Sakon has a musical attack “do re mi etc” that apparently targets the opponent’s bones? (still figuring that one out. suggestions as to what the heck it is/does welcome!) And then there is their kekkei genkai (probably. never confirmed one way or another) which allows them to A. share a body, B. mess with their limbs and cells in order to make say, a hand come out of the other twin’s head C. control their cells down to the molecular level D. invade another person’s body, isolate that other person’s cells and tear off chunks of internal organs
Shape-shifting/bodyswap/etc.: If your character can handle the twins being generally furious with them, sure XD. They won’t take well to that sort of thing at all but I’d love to. Drop me a line and let’s plan!
Hugging/kissing/other non-violent contact: Ha. Ha. Ha. NO. They just don’t do that. Anyone who tries will likely be punched or kunai’d. . . if they’re awake. The exception is if they initiate or play-fighting/rough-housing/”macho” gestures with someone they’re comfortable with.
Fighting: Hell yeah. They love to fight and will no doubt end up picking lots of them, either because of grudges or in the name of training. Verbal fights and bickering too.
Killing: While they’ll be using the moogles religiously I would much prefer if they didn’t end up killed. But if you’re gonna kill them and there’s no way around it, kill both of them at once, please. And tell me about it first! Or be panicked at.
Cooking: While they no doubt could follow the directions on prepackaged food or recipes they have no interest or desire to cook.
THE SUPER IMPORTANT NOTE THING!
Ok, so Sakon and Ukon are twins. They share a body. For those of you not familiar with Naruto this leaves Sakon appearing to have a second head appearing out of the back of his neck/shoulder area. This is very obvious. Very obvious. But no one ever brings it up to him in canon without Ukon coming out first. No one. Not saying that no one notices, because they all certainly do notice a second head, just that no one calls them on it. They aren’t used to being called on it at all.
So in spite of the obviousness the twins are going to desperately try to keep their twinness a secret and go to great lengths to do so. This is because:
A. it’s their ace in the hole
B. it’s the key to a great deal of their jutsu.
C. it’s a very, very private thing for them. special if you want to put it that way.
So what will happen when you bring it up? Sakon’ll get very defensive and snappy and try to intimidate you into dropping it. If you press he’ll get more insistent and angry. Push too far and you may end up meeting Ukon, who’ll be pissed in your general direction. Or being on the receiving end of violence. (individual cases will be discussed, hopefully, with the players during the interaction to make sure nothing happens that someone doesn’t want)
When you discover the secret they will follow right up with death threats. They don’t trust anyone not to spill the secret and intimidation and fear are their weapons of choice for ensuring silence. After a few death threats though, they’ll probably drop the subject and leave you alone. And that will be that, most likely.
BUT! They are very serious about those death threats. Telling someone and them finding out about it will result in them trying to murder the tattle-tale and then going to threaten the people who were told into silence.
If you have any concerns about your characters spilling the twins’ secret or something please contact me and we’ll work something out.
