Welcome to Gaia! ::

Listening to San, he heard his instruction, “I'm with James eh? Makes sense I guess.”
He watched as San changed his appearence. It would be easy enough to get something like that Manfread had something similar in his closet back at his house, but having to hide his sword.
“San-sempai, do I have to hide my sword? Because I's pretty sure Suna's store doesn't sell scrolls to carry this.”

James Cameron Poe

King of The Frozen Sand

James nodded at Sanshi's instructions, and had an Idea. James used a amll transformation technique, and his appearance changed to have a long Raven mask and a long black coat " I'm a traveling Doctore and Manfread will be my apprentice. Zane I would like for you to stick with me and be our "personal chef and guide." I could use your help making sure we have no tails or such The choice is yours, I hope your family taught you well either way."

James closed his eyes after speaking and listened to the sound of all the Suna nin together. He listened as hard as he could and turned his head He listened to there heart beats, memorizing each hearts distinct sound.
Diagnosis learned +1 to +6

Zane turned to James as he asked him to join them and he didn't think someone wanted him so he must go with them now he turned to james and said " I'm already a good cook it's in my blood i will most likely make the best food you've ever had on a mission." He Said with a simile and walked over to James so that he could go when he was ready.

"Thanks, I'll try to do my best. For all of us." Shiki smiled at James, then shifted his attention to the new genin. "That's good, but I hope that you can do more then cook. We'll be investigating a crime scene, and that requires a good eye." Shiki looked at the little one, he wondered how he could be a genin when he was so small...

"If you say so, I'll take your word for it then. Pleasure to meet you, I'm Shiki Narumi." he smiled, his hand stretched out to shake his teammate's.

Lucas figured that giong out do investigate might be fun. but james already had a large enough group to handle. he slowly sauntered towards San casually. Lucas activated douka assimilating with his steel dagger and then altered his body to look similar but not quite the same as the clone of San. once compleated he would simply exit his douka and would now have a new body.
"looks good?"
he asked. the clothing he normally wore was not a military outfit or anything anyways but a simple two piece high end fancy merchant suit that was built to withstand almost anything. he had transformed so as to fit his clothing still as he really liked the outfit but also made his body look like a local so he'd look more like a recent local as a high end merchant. the cover was he was just settling down after years of travelling and wanted to make it home.

Manfread drooled a river when he heard that Zane was a good cook, starting to feel ignored he headed off. Grumbling about not being able to take his sword. He left the equipment James had just brought.
"I'll grab it when I get back," he said sulking slightly.
Manfread returned a little while later wearing long elegant robes fit for the mission and all his weapons were well hidden. Surrounded by a murderous aura that was so thick small animals who entered his proximity would drop dead. Manfread stalked up to the rest of the group, not saying a word and grabbed the gear.
