Personality/Mannerism: A hot blooded, boastful, and passionate man, you can count on Raitora to be at the frontlines, kicking a** and making sure his opponents knew about his skill in battle. Outside of combat, he takes life in stride, always striving to better himself in all areas with a smile on his face. He will be the man you want to talk to you about your problems and give his opinion on what shall be done. He has a strong sense of justice and always tries to do right, by the village's standards, and his own.
In battle, he enjoys the thrill, thinking a battle is exciting when you are pushed to your absolute limits....and you exceed them. It led him to develop his own training regimen which seems awfully similar to Might Guy's "My Rules" philosophy.
Facial Features: He's a handsome man with short, messy brown hair and light hazel eyes that seem to shine in the sunlight. His skin is slightly tanned due to his training regimen, one that he keeps to even to this day.
Physique: This guy may not look like it, but he is ripped! Years of his intense training regimen has given him the physique of an athlete. He's busted the hems out of some of his shirts with only a few bicep flexes. He is not ashamed to strip his shirt off, whether intentional or not.

Special Tactic/Skills: Raitora is able to think clearly despite the many distractions in a fight, he may not seem like it, but every second you are fighting him, he is learning more and more about you.
Tactic wise, Raitora fights at close range a majority of the time. Unless you can match him blow for blow, you're likely going to have a bad day.
Battle Strength:
-Raitora is at the peak of physical perfection, possessing strength and speed unmatched by many his rank. In other words, there may be physically stronger Jounin or faster Jounin that him, but when it comes to the perfect blend, he's the closest you can get to it.
-Raitora very large chakra reserves, easily able to keep up in a battle of endurance.
-Raitora can take a really good beating, in fact he's so durable, many think he's the Third Raikage reincarnated.
Battle Weakness:
-He doesn't possess many ranged jutsus, preferring to do most of the damage up close and personal.
-His chakra control is average, which would be a major problem if he didn't have a large amount of chakra to begin with.
-He can be overconfident and get carried away, missing important details. He is also very, very ego driven at times.

Ninjutsu:
• Kawarimi no Jutsu - Change of Body Stance Technique ~ E Rank
Kawarimi no Jutsu is a basic Ninjutsu. When in danger the ninja will quickly substitute themself with another nearby object. This can be a block of wood or even another person. This allows the ninja to quickly flee and hide while the original object takes the brunt of their opponents attack.
• Henge no Jutsu - Transformation Technique ~ E Rank
Henge no Jutsu is a Ninjutsu which every ninja learns at the Ninja Academy. Henge allows the ninja to transform themselves into any person or object. This allows the ninja to move with stealth or to trick their opponents.
• Nawanuke no Jutsu - Escaping Skill ~ E Rank
Nawanuke no Jutsu is a very basic Ninjutsu that allows a ninja to escape from rope binds.
• Kinobori no Waza - Act of Tree Climbing ~ E Rank
Kinobori no Waza, the art of tree climbing serves a dual purpose. Taking part in Kinobori Shugyou (Tree Climbing Training) helps a ninja learn how to focus their chakra. It also teaches the ninja how to run up trees and walk on vertical walls. The training helps the ninja learn how to focus just the right amount of chakra to a particular part of their body. The amount needed to climb is small but it must be precise. The feet are regarded as the hardest location to master chakra focusing. So by gaining the art of this skill, the ninja will have any jutsu available (theoretically) because they will be able to focus their chakra as needed.
• Suimen Hokou no Waza - Act of Water Surface Walking ~ E Rank
A variation on the Kinobori no Waza (Act of Tree Climbing), the art of water surface walking allows a ninja to walk on water as if it was a solid surface. Focusing an even amount of chakra out of the soles of their feet, they can balance themselves on the very surface of the water.
• Kai-C
• Shunshin no Jutsu - Body Flicker Technique –D
Shunshin no Jutsu is a basic Ninjutsu. The ninja will appear and disappear in an instant, allowing them to retreat or attack suddenly. To facilitate the movement the ninja will often use nearby elements such as mist, sand or leaves to mask their appearance or disappearance.
• Raiton: Raiken (Lightning Release: Lightning Fist)- B
Raitora charges his arms or legs with Lightning Chakra, supercharging the nerve endings to give him unrivaled striking speed. Each strike that lands not only deals considerable damage, but it electrocutes the enemy with his chakra.
• Fuuton: Arashi Ken (Wind Release: Tempest Fist)- B
Raitora sheathes his arms or legs with Wind Chakra, giving his strikes with the affected area the ability to cut even with near misses. A direct hit with the affected areas can be extremely devastating to his opponent.
• Wind Style: Great Breakthrough- C
This is a relatively simple technique that creates a sudden gust of wind, but its scale varies greatly depending on the user. If used by a superior shinobi, it has enough destructive power to knock down a large tree. The wind from the squall can blow away all things in the user's line of sight.
• Blade of Wind- A
This technique is a pinpoint slashing strike, where the user emits chakra from their fingertips and materialises it into an invisible sword that assaults the enemy in a gust of wind and making a slicing sound.
• Powerful Wind Wave- C
After forming the necessary seals, the user simply shoots out a blade of wind from their mouth.
• Fuuton no Yoroi (Wind Release Armor)- S
Raitora's creation, deriving from the Raiton no Yoroi, Raitora's entire body is surrounded by powerful air currents that form a vortex around him. Like Raiton no Yoroi, this provides him with a great increase in speed by using the wind like jet engines, propelling him to wherever he wants to go. At full power, his short hair actually waves as if caught in a powerful breeze and he actually floats off the ground. Unlike Raiton no Yoroi, he doesn't gain a strength boost. Instead, he gains the ability to fly, using the vortex as propulsion. He can hover, change directions, and dive with Fuuton no Yoroi, giving him unmatched maneuverability in the air. The defensive part comes from the fact that instead of shocking his opponents, he slices into their flesh with the razor like wind.
• Fuuton no Yoroi: Shippuu (Wind Release Armor: Hurricane)- S
Only usable while Raitora uses his Wind Release Armor, Raitora lifts himself off the ground and immediately starts spinning with one leg out. A massive amount of Wind chakra is expelled in a large gust from it's origin point (him), then it immediately start rotating the same direction as Raitora, becoming a massive tornado of slicing and buffeting wind. This technique is among Raitora's deadliest, bringing untold devastation to his surroundings. It is also nearly impossible to directly attack him while he's generating this tornado except for a gap up top about 10 feet wide, the so called "eye" of the storm. If you can find this and dive through it, you can stop Raitora's spinning and end the technique. This also takes a large amount of chakra, not only to activate Fuuton no Yoroi, but to activate the technique itself, means that he can't perform it too many times before collapsing out of exhaustion.
Genjutsu:
Taijutsu:
• Southwester Disarm- D
A simple punch to the arm that is holding a weapon, jarring the nerves enough that the victim will likely drop their weapon. It gets it's name from the fact the attack comes from a southwest angle.
• Sweeping Squall- D
A simple sweep kick along the lines of Konoha's Leaf Gale. It's purpose is to trip an opponent and knock him off balance.
• Airstream Knee- D
A simple attack to the midsection by using ones knee.
• Backhanded Gust- C
A strike with the back of his fist, sometimes without even looking at his opponent.
• Thunder and Lightning- C
A hard punch to the gut, followed by a strong uppercut to the chin. This is usually a knockout blow.
• Easterly Whirlwind- C
A series of kicks, one aimed high and the other aimed low, meant to trip up the opponent's evasive margin. The final kick is one straight to the mid section. The name comes from the fact that each kick comes from an easterly direction.
• Rising Airstream Knee- C
A simple attack to the midsection using one's knee, but this time done with a short leap for a bit more power.
• Easterly Push- C
Raitora pushes the enemy to the east of him with a palm strike. With his strength, this attack can throw even heavy opponents pretty far.
• Whirlwind Twist- B
A roundhouse kick delivered with great speed and power delivered straight to an opponent's neck. Since it is aiming for such a vital area, a man of Raitora's stature could potentially kill with this maneuver.
• Great Heaven Drop (Yuuen Tentou Kakou)- B-ranked
Raitora kicks the enemy up into the air, following him up to meet him before he kicks the enemy back to the ground. He then finishes it by slamming his fist into the enemy's gut when he lands.
• Raitora Ken (Lightning Tiger Fist)- A
A Nintaijutsu style along the lines of Konoha's Strong Fist, which involves dealing external damage by breaking bones and smashing your opponent. Raitora Ken follows a similar principle, but while practitioners of Strong Fist usually train hard enough to learn to open the 8 Gates, practitioners of Raitora Ken do it via the Lightning Chakra Element, hence why it received it's name. By surrounding their whole body or parts of it with Lightning Element Chakra, their neural synapses are stimulated, allowing for tremendous raw speed.
• Thunderbolt (Rakurai)- A-ranked
Raitora uses this technique when he is above his opponent, achieving this with Shushin no Jutsu or by just leaping above his opponent. With his arms charged with Lightning Chakra, Raitora then drops down on his opponent, slamming him into the ground with his fist. The drop is so sudden and so fast that many opponents don't have enough time to react before it is too late.

Family Member(s):
Sasuke Koshi- Father, Deceased
Kareme Koshi- Mother, Alive
Friends: He considers his best friend to be Michiko Daishi, the current Raikage. They have been friends and rivals since they met each other at the Academy, always seeking to surpass one another in friendly contests. It is his drive to match her that forced him to train constantly, developing a set of rules similar to Might Guy's "My Rules", setting tougher goals for himself if he fails so something good comes out of it.
Enemies: He considers any enemy of the village as his personal enemy and will do all he can to make them regret attacking his home.
Romantic relationships: He has a hidden crush on Michiko, it's been there since they were children, but became more prevalent when they were Chunin. He keeps this a secret because a secret fear that she would reject his advances, keeping to being just friends.
Religious philosophy: He doesn't know if there is a higher power, and personally he doesn't care. He believes he makes his own destiny with his actions. Always look ahead.
Political/social philosophy: He believes a happy village is one that knows their duties, but knows when to relax when necessary. Like Michiko, he believes if everyone is comfortable, everyone is happy.
Background: The only child of two great Shinobi, Raitora was raised with the dream that he would be a great shinobi like them. His father was especially notable for being one of the greatest masters of Taijutsu in their village and began instructing his son in the basics and instilling the value of hard work before he even went to the Academy.
At the age of 6, he attended the Kumogakure Ninja Academy. This was the first time he met Michiko Daishi and her brother Hajime, although her brother was a year ahead of them. She and Raitora became fast friends and friendly rivals, and it was Raitora who always challenged her to a fight. It was the first few losses he had against her that made him develop his philosophy: to get stronger, I must do a different task everytime I fail. Though this was an extreme idea, it worked for the young Raitora. He continues this method even to this day.
When he and Michiko graduated from the academy, they were placed in a genin squad together with her brother. He also became friends with Hajime and the three always hung out together. And the rivalry between Michiko and Ratora was kept fresh, even during the Jounin exams. Raitora was deeply affected when Hajime was crippled. He saw a change in his older friend and tried to cheer him up, but was ultimately rebuffed and told to never see him or his sister again.
This ultimately devastated Raitora, who immediately walked out, effectively severing his friendship with Hajime. He devoted himself more to his training, developing Fuuton no Yoroi and Fuuton no Yoroi: Shippuu in swift order. He devoted the rest of his time to the missions he was sent on, most of them Solo missions. It was during this time that he gained notoriety as "Kumogakure's Mountain Gale" and developed a more battle hungry side of his personality. Perhaps it was his way of letting loose of his pent up rage at Hajime's harsh words. Perhaps it was an attempt to please the elderly Takara. He didn't know nor did he care.
When Hajime killed himself, Raitora was stricken with great grief for his former friend and reluctantly attended his funeral. He rekindled his friendship with Michiko at her request and to this day, serves faithfully as a Jounin to his friend, the Raikage,just as he served the previous Raikage, her grandmother Takara. Their rivalry is still there, but Raitora now only spars with her as he knew he was no match for the Raikage.
