*a profile i made on BS*
Name: Kakuzu
Age: Unknown
Gender: Male
Village: Not aligned with any village, but is a Missing-ninja from Takigakure
Rank: S-Ranked Missing-ninja
Clan: Akatsuki
Clothing or Armor: Kakuzu is garbed in the trademark outfit of the Akatsuki, like all the other guild members. The coat is a dark obsidian black with small blood red clouds whirling around it. The inside of the coat is lined with a blood red silk, making the coat overall lightweight.
The collar of the jacket comes up to Kakuzu face and covers up some of his facial features. The Coat also goes down to his feet, revealing his sandals. The coats is extreme long, and baggy, as are the sleeves, allowing some of the members to use jutsu's without revealing the handisigns and or motions, such as holding onto a kunai.
Kakuzu also wears a facial mask hiding his face from the world, no one has seen his face before, at least anyone who's alive. Kakuzu is much more concealed then his partner Hidan. Members of the Akatsuki wear a traditional bamboo hat (kasa) to hide their appearance when traveling. The hat is removed when the member enters battle., his face would be completer concealed if he wore his hat the entire time.
Kakuzu comes from Takigakure( The Land Hidden in WaterFall). Like every other member of the Akatsuki, he wears his headband but has a signature slash through it, implying that he's no longer has the same ideals as the nation.
Kakuzu also bears one of the ten rings of the Akatsuki. Each member of the Akatsuki wear a Ring, symbolizing something, Kakuzu wears his upon Ring his left middle finger, and it symbolizes Hoku, or North. Each member wears a ring on a different finger for it corresponds with there position on the summoning statue. They are drawn from ancient Japanese and Chinese lore, the kanji engraved on these rings has served in the past to represent Gods, to have concentration in battle. With Aid and protection from evil. The Akatsuki members also have manicured finger's and toe nails, that are painted in a light shade of purple.
Physical Appearance: Kakuzu looks dreadfully in his Akatsuki coat, but beneath the giant coat lies a strong body. Kakuzu has a lot of body strength, and can be seen by the muscle build on his body. Kakuzu is a greedy fighter, this is why Taijutsu is one of Kakuzu strong points. Kakuzu is tall and yet fit, he is taller than most members of the guild, so i presume about 193.1cm and weights at least 88kg. He has a light colored skin since its always hidden behind garments and masks
Kakuzu face is always hidden behind a facial mask, one very similar to the one Kakashi wears. The only facial feature than can be seen is his eyes, he has White iris, Black sclera, his glares feel are ever so fearsome. That is all that's known about his face.
Kakuzu is concealed so he hides his clothes in a garment, so the color, length, or even the fact that he has hair is unknown, but some presume he does. Kakuzu wears a headband on his head, that looks similar to a Teira. This is the only part of clothing Kakuzu is mocked about, for it does look a a bit silly, but no one who's alive, except Hidan has got away with it.
Despite the initiating from his physical appearance he hides more secrets. Kakuzu has two circular tattoos placed upon his right forearm. His arms seem to have been severed at his elbows. They are held by to massive black threads. Simply by removing his threads from his arms, Kakuzu may fire his arms off like a projectile, amazingly being able to control them the entire time.
These threads not only are placed in his arm to hold them in place, but seem to be woven all around his body, which Kakuzu can control at will. Other than being used to hold his limbs in the right place, Kakuzu can use his threads to put Hidan back together if ever Hidan ended up losing any limbs. Kakuzu has an unusual amount of physical strength, which is related with a change in his skin color.
Personality: Kakuzu is a S-rank Missing Ninja and apart of the Akatsuki so the first impression of him is often correct. Kakuzu is an extremely greedy individual of the Akatsuki, only doing what he believes is necessary to get the money. He oftenly refers to himself as the " Treasurer" of the Akatsuki. Kakuzu has a mutual relationship with the bounty officer, which seems to be where his income comes from.
Kakuzu is easy to upset and get angry, often killing anyone in sight when enraged. That's why Hidan is the best partner for him for his apparent inability to pass on, or die. Essentially Hidan is the only partner he cant kill in his rage. Despite his Greedy and obsessive personality. He seems rather more willing to follow orders than his partner. An example of this is when the leader of the Akatsuki orders him to retreat, and he fled then kill Asuma, which he could have gotten a rather large bounty.
Weapons: Kakuzu can fire his arms like projectiles, remaining in control over them the entire time. Due to the unusual style of this technique, it's unknown if this is a natural ability or something accomplished through medical modification.

Rank: Unknown
Range: -
Type: Supplementary
Genryuu Kyuu Fuujin is a Fuuinjutsu technique utilized by Akatsuki. To further their goals, they seek to capture all the "jinchuuriki," literally "the power of human sacrifice" a.k.a. demon possessors such as Uzumaki Naruto and Gaara. Akatsuki seeks to use the bijuu (tailed demon beasts) for their unique abilities. Once they capture one of the jinchuuriki, they will bring them to a hidden location. All nine members need not be physically present, they can use their astral projection technique to transport a spectral form of themselves into the cave.
The members will first summon the huge "king of hell" statue. This statue has its mouth bound and eyes covered. Once they begin the technique, the mouth binding will fall away and nine spectral dragons will emerge from its mouth to strike the jinchuuriki. This will then begin the extraction process. With the absence of Orochimaru, the process will take three straight day and nights. During this period the members will release the same exact amount of power as that of the bijuu, this synchronization will thus allow its removal. As the extraction continues, the statues eyes will open to reveal the current status of previous jinchuriki captures, with irises appearing in the eyes to apparently represent a capture.
Gofuu Kekkai - Five Seal Barrier

The cave door itself is marked with one tag, and four other tags are located within a few hundred meters of each other. To remove the barrier, all five tags must be removed at the same moment.
Knowing that the barrier has this weakness, Akatsuki added a further protection. When the four surrounding tags are removed, a doppelganger of the person who removed it will emerge from the ground and battle them. The doppelganger can utilize all the same moves as the original, even bloodline techniques.
Kekkei Genkai/Bloodlimit/Special Abilities: Kakuzu has the ability to re-attach and de-attach his own limbs, and is able to use those threads to heal his allies, to re-attach there limbs.
Battle Style: Kakuzu battle style is simple, he's only in for the money, and his bosses orders. Kakuzu is often looking for a bounty to take, Kakuzu Taijutsu is his strongest fighting feature. His brute strength allows him to destroy and opponent, especially when he's enraged, or angered, the angrier he is the deadlier.
Kakuzu has a great advantage in battle, if one of his limbs or his partners limbs were severed or blown off he can use his threads and re-attaching them, making him an opponent hard to take down, this is why he is such a recognized member of the Akatsuki.
Companions: Kakuzu works with Hidan another member of the Akatsuki, and these two have a slightly testy relation. Hidan religion is very strict which makes Kakuzu mad quite often since it has long rituals. With Hidan begin defensive about his beliefs Kakuzu gets tired of his diatribes. Kakuzu makes side trips to collect his great bounty, which angers Hidan. Kakuzu knows Hidan was assigned to capture Nibi, but its unknown what Kakuzu was ordered to capture
History: Kakuzu is apart of the Akatsuki organization. The kanji for Akatsuki means daybreak, by simply breaking down the words itself it shows, 'aka' which means Red, which is a familiar color in this organization hence the clouds on the signature of the Akatsuki. And the word, 'tsuki' means moon. This organization's is compiled of S-Ranked Criminal Ninjas. Many of them are Missing Ninjas who left there Village and hometowns usually causing death and massive destruction in their wake. When Orochimaru left and Sasori had died there was 8 remaining members. The group simply replaced Sasori with a new recruit named Tobi, who was eager to join and take part in the organizations objective to capture the Bjuii.
Most members wear there hia-ate from there hidden village, with the signature scratch through across it., and they all wear a ring identifying there rank in the organization and the black coat with red clouds. When the members of the organization leave and travel through out the countries they work in groups of two, gathering knowledge of new skills, and new jutsus. The Main Goal of the organization is unknown but currently they want to capture the 'jinchuuriki' which means power of human sacrifice, these are people who have demons residing inside them like Naruto Uzamaki and not to long ago Gaara of the Sand.
The demons are recognized by the number of the tails on their bodies they have. Shukaku is the One-Tailed Tanuki which relates to the myth about a racoon, Nibi is the Two-Tailed Cat, Sanbi is the Three-Tailed Turtle and Kyuubi is the Nine-Tailed Fox. The only known "jinchuuriki" are Gaara of the Sand, Uzumaki Naruto, and Nii Yugito. Gaara along with two unknown 'Jinchuuriki' have had their demons removed. All three of them had died but Gaara was brought back to life by a Tesnei Jutsu. Yugito has been captured as well and the organization is awaiting the demon extraction. The current location of the organization base is unknown but they had met in a cave deep within the River Country, but that cave is now destroyed.
The Akatsuki previous hideout was also used to hold the giant statue called " The King of Hell". The statue's mouth is bounded and his hands are cuffed together. Each finger on the statue represents a Akatsuki member. There for each finger has its own kanji, that is engraved on a members ring. The members have a jutsu that allows them to project their being or persona into the cave, this allows them To be anywhere, and still conduct operations of the 'jinchuuriki' extractions inside.
This extractions takes Three whole days and Three whole nights, due to the fact the Orochimaru left. To begin to process the members use the sealing technique called GenryuuKyuu Fuujin (Mystical Dragon Nine Exhaustion). This makes the mouth of the statue open. Nine ethereal Dragons will come to coalesce around the human sacrifice to begin the process. When the process is complete the spirit is sealed within the statue ad one of its eyes open showing a captured demon. The humans themselves will that held the demons inside them die. Now that you have a knowledge of the History of the Akatsuki it'll be easier to understand Kakuzu history and RP style.
Kakuzu was born in Takigakure no Sato or The Land of Waterfall. Most member's from the village are known for there Water jutsu and Taijutsu strength. Kakuzu was trained everyday ever since he was able to walk, he had to climb up cliff sides, with his hands behind his back, he had to sit deep within the confines of Waterfalls, being pushed to the limit by the shear pressure.
When Kakuzu was still but a mere child he was more skilled than any genin, mastering the basics of jutsus, that genin were decently skilled at, he was advancing quite quickly, but that's when fate took its toll. Kakuzu would be in extreme danger very soon, this near death experience changed his destiny.
Kakuzu had been doing his regular training of climbing up the massive cliff near the greatest waterfall in the land. Kakuzu had only but one hand to use, his arm was tied to his back and his two legs as well, he was focusing all his energy to one point in his body. Kakuzu had made it about 1,947 feet up, when he noticed the cliff had taken a hit by something, totally eliminating his normal path of training, his only other way would to climb the rocks behind the waterfall, Kakuzu merely thought of this as an opportunity to increase his strength.
Kakuzu began to climb the slimy, wet, slippery surface. He focused his chakra as he carried himself up the cliff easily, his ear's perked, something was wrong, he checked himself, he was fine, he looked above him, but the water obscured his view, suddenly a boulder pelted Kakuzu. Kakuzu was stuck on the massive rock as it was whirling toward the jagged surface, Kakuzu used his chakra to move, but it was no use, the boulder was to big he was going to die.
Kakuzu was smashed into the jagged surface, he blacked out immediately, only to his luck there was a expert medic, coming to the Waterfall for the very rare mushrooms he needed for his medicines. The ninja merely used his earth jutsu to toss the rock aside, he had to begin his operation right there, he placed his sack aside him, opening revealing many tools. He noticed Kakuzu arms had been blasted off from the massive amount of pressure and blood that was lodged there at the time of the crash.
He worked quickly, he only had one hope, to use the black threads he had received from the Ninjas in the Sound Nation. He worked quickly re attaching Kakuzu limbs, but they needed to work properly so more was needed, he began to connect the threads to his chest, to hold them stable, and for them to support the body. He looked as the treads stretched through the boy, his arms were severed at the elbows but were now connecting back on both arms, his legs had the massive threads running through them as well.
Kakuzu awoke soon to find out he was alive, but most of his bones crushed. He saw the imprint of someone that had been leaning over him for hours, and a package, Kakuzu saw the boulder lying at the streams edge. Kakuzu went to lean forward as the pain rushed through him. Kakuzu quickly placed his hands on his head as his sleeves slid down his arm, as fear ran through his mind. He looked at his arm, it had been completely severed off, but had been sewed back together and ultimately tied by the black threads.
Kakuzu smashed his fist into the ground as it crushed below his fist, it had only had been less than a few hours after the surgery and his strength had increased, Kakuzu got what he wanted but at what cost, the future held the answer for this.
A Few years passed after the incident, Kakuzu used these new limbs to become stronger, Kakuzu had found out that he could detach his limbs, and much more these threads had become his greatest strength. He was now consumed with the urge for power, and found the Akatsuki, a guild full of skilled shinobi like himself. He joined the guild and is now employed to do their objectives and desires, he had left the Village that gave him his powers and now worked for his members ideals not his nations.
RP Example:
Before Time Skip
Kakuzu footsteps rang inside the dark cave, as he exited they had just met inside, and not all in there corporeal body. Kakuzu was near the Hideout and had traveled there on foot, the rest had used astral projection, to plot their next major plan of action.
Kakuzu eyes pierced through the darkness that ensnared the cave, he could even see the small droplets of dew fall of the stalagmites and clash onto the rough cave floor. Kakuzu emerged from the darkness, revealing the rain that had set in while he was working.
Kakuzu looked at the surroundings, the trees were watered down as the rain was hitting hard, and slowly flooding the area, this storm was severe. The trunk of the bamboo trees were bending from all the weight, the few bugs hiding under the strongest leaves that would give away and cause there death.
Kakuzu noticed one thing missing, his partner he could get rid of, or rid of this earth. Kakuzu was upset for his partner Hidan, wasn't were he was supposed to be. ' This is such a nuisance' Kakuzu walked into the rain.
It pelted his black garment, and dripped down the headband. The water rushed down his head, the water clashes into the Akatsuki coat. Kakuzu raised his battle worn hand into the air, his sleeve slid slowly down revealing one of the many black threads that holds him together.
Kakuzu had received a new mission, to capture one of the members brothers, Itachi little brother, Sasuke Uchiha. It was time for there plan to begin to capture the demon that resided in his friend Naruto, it was time for fate to play its part. " Let's begin" Kakuzu said grimly, thunder struck above him, the rain poured harder, the weather was so chaotic, Kakuzu loved it.
After Time Skip
Kakuzu watched as Hidan disappeared into the setting sun, over the the horizon, something came up that was much more important than capturing the demons, it was a large bounty, the man was not to far from his current position.
Kakuzu walked upon the undisturbed dirt road, it seemed as if this road as no longer used, there wasn't even a scent, or a tracks from a traveling merchant cart. It felt odd for such a normal road to be ignored. Kakuzu thought nothing of it, he just adjusted his bamboo hat to cover his face from the gleaming sunlight.
Kakuzu had neared the town by now, it must have been a few hours of traveling to reach this desolate village, Kakuzu entered the empty streets, a tumble weed scrambled across the road. Kakuzu was in the Land of Wind, the home-land of the Fifth Kazekage, this city seemed to have been empty for months now, as there was no vegetation growing anywhere, Kakuzu walked forward, for this town was rumored to have the old man's house.
Kakuzu walked into a deep basin, he looked at the dry pebbly floor, this must have been were the river had run through, there was dead remains of trees and drift wood scattered along-side of the riverbed. Kakuzu sat down and looked up into the scorching sun.
