Looks Description:
Junpei  has natural wavy and silver hair and half-lidded red eyes that make him appear uninterested at some times. Being a Hozuki Clan member and an aspiring Seven Swordsmen he has his teeth sharpened as if they were razors themselves. On his tongue he also has a black ink tattoo of a Six. He wears a black shirt and pants with red linings, and a white yukata (a summer kimono) with light blue patterns worn sloppily, draped over his left shoulder with his right hanging out freely. On his lower body he wears black pants that fit is form pretty tight, then to finish the look black combat boots. Normally you can also find some kind of sword in his possession.

His Anbu mask appears to be that of an Oni Mask, bearing horns on the forehead and having exposed fangs. It's not really a super unique mask, but Junpei enjoys the covering. Another accessory is his ruby red cloak that clashes with the snow from his land ever so eloquently.

Next we move on to a more of a formal look, this being all black with the exception of some gold. A standard Japanese high school student look the front of his garment also bears golden buttons. Underneath you can find a red dress shirt, that barely peeks from under the outer wear.


Personality Description: For starters Junpei has the base qualities of a Hozuki. This being an undeniable lust for blood and blades. With this blood lust comes the odd lust for errm well other human flesh. Yes indeed Junpei is a cannibal, but more of a closet cannibal just like anyone with the habit would be. He isn't exactly proud or shameful of the habit, but he does know it isn't socially acceptable, so he does keep it a secret, but a few ninja do know about this mans practices.

Crawling outside of the closet would many meatless skeletons, on his exterior Junpei appears and acts like your typical comical coward. He just loves to integrate humor into situations and likes to act like a goof, so he expresses that trait through acting like more of a scardey cat, as some would call it. This is usually when he finds situations don't really require seriousness and that's majority of the time when it comes to Junpei. In truth Junpei is a pretty cocky fellow and loves to run his mouth especially when he sees it's getting to people.

On top of his odd tendencies, Junpei also has the habit of over exaggerating scenes and making them much more than what they seemed. Often taking the credit for others work in a joking fashion or just from exaggerating his own contribution in group efforts. He can be seen as the loud mouth little brother of most groups as he tends to always fall into that basket regardless if he tries to or not.

On a more serious note, Junpei does know when joking time is over. That's usually well after he has been told to get serious or someone has died, but when that time does come Junpei does grab his big boy pants and he wears them well. He knows how to direct people in the right way and acts excellently under pressure. Usually better than his normal performance, though that's exemplary itself, for he isn't an Anbu member for nothing.

In combination with the blood lust and love for blades, Junpei has crafted a part of himself in the image of the Seven Swordsmen. He is a very battle hardened warrior and wishes he had scars on his body to prove it.

History: Yes the history of this very interesting individual, it all goes back to the misty area of Kirigakure. Back on the Hozuki compound wear Junpei and his fellow kin were being trained to be feared warriors and the rumor of the Seven Swords of the Mist going back into circulation started. This was the driving force of many kids in his generation being driven into madness and being crafted into the image of the Bloody Mist, but more importantly in the image of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist.

By the age of seven, one without at least seven kills under his belt was seen as week. By the age of eight those without twenty out cast and scum, Junpei took note of this labeling and made sure to never be cast into those ranks. He and his fellow Hozuki brethren were barely around age six when their first kill was earned. Simply an assassination task on an annoying peddler. Junpei doesn't remember the details, as he is glad he can remember that much having many more kills over shadow that one.

That being the beginning of the young child's long journey, Junpei knew he wasn't making it any further than those he was working with with them operating in a group. It was great for protection and comradery, but in the end when it came down to it, it was how was the best in the end. Not which group, it was all about who was number one, the cream of the crop, the one who could say, "I run this shit." Junpei internalized this, but didn't know how to act. That was until he was presented with the ultimatum after harboring those emotions for years on end.

Many years and unremembered deaths later and the teen found himself in the Forest of Death during the Chunin Exams, age twelve. He knew or a least felt the time of choosing was coming near, that being the choosing for one of the Seven Swords, but there were still many other contenders and he couldn't risk the loss. His Genin opponents were the least of his worries as he was aware his squad mates were thinking the same thing as well. Only one of them could be known as top dog and sadly the top dog wasn't taking followers this time around.

Sleep was non-existent as the young murders spent their time in the forest. Adrenaline keeping them alert and functioning they neared the last day. Nothing had set off yet, but it was now or never. This was the only chance one would have to kill and teammate and be able to at least half pull it off and the others were aware. No yells or screams were heard that night, only the sound of under water mumbling as both Genin were horrendously drowned by the power hungry Hozuki, but now it was time for disposal. Maybe he was loopy from so little sleep or just hungry or maybe a combo, but he could never say human flesh was nasty after that meal. No bodies were found and not a word got out about the  
occurrence, but a lot was implied and it was evident about what had happened.

Many of the villages had frowned at this display, but the Hidden Mist only plastered a devious grin onto its face as they knew they had reproduced one of its ancient great ninja. Awarded the monicker, Third Coming of the Demon, in remembrance of Zabuza Momochi the first demon and the Hozuki brothers Suigetsu and Mangetsu who were known as the Second Coming of the Demon, Junpei was content with the naming. Usually those titles meant nothing, but Junpei wore it as a badge in place of the blade he did not receive. That's right, no blade was distributed after the Exams and Junpei's murderous and cannibalistic acts were in vain.

Now a teen, Junpei shrugged off the memories of his previous comrades, like the deaths of the many other before them. Continuing on with his life, but a little less action packed than usual, Junpei eventually found himself distant from his village. He no longer had anything to prove and found himself longing for something more. Maybe it was the emptiness from not obtaining any of the legendary blades at all for his sacrifice for his village, but regardless Junpei eventually ventured off as another rogue of Kirigakure. Maybe searching for a legendary blade, a beautiful girl to settle down with, or just some good company, Junpei somehow found himself in the Land of Snow.

Just like Kirigakure's Mist that kept the young mans hydrated like his clan required him to, the snow did just that and he soon found his new home. A new start for the young man, but he soon bloodied that new start by entering the ranks of the villages Anbu. Now in the village of Snow or Yukigakure he is known as a prodigy of murder. Maybe he is the reincarnation of Zabuza Momochi or maybe he's just gassed up and psychotic, regardless, Junpei Hozuki is a skilled and valiant ninja who is prepared to make his mark on the Ninja World once more.
