Currently in the World

Fūma Kotarō stands at an average height, his lithe and agile frame concealed beneath a shadowy ensemble that’s both practical and mysterious. He dons a form-fitting black shinobi shōzoku, its fabric expertly crafted to reduce any rustling as he moves. The clothing features concealed pockets for his ninja tools, and the hood of his attire is often pulled low to obscure most of his face, leaving only piercing, calculating eyes visible.

In the dappled moonlight filtering through dense forest foliage, Fūma Kotarō currently crouches in a stealthy stance. He remains utterly still, barely a whisper of movement betraying his presence, as he observes a fortified enemy outpost nestled deep within the dense woods. The night air is laden with the scent of damp earth and pine, and the forest is alive with the soft symphony of rustling leaves and distant night creatures.

His mood is one of intense focus, a calm determination radiating from him even in the face of imminent danger. He knows that the safety of his clan and the oppressed villagers nearby hinges on the success of his mission, and he is ready to employ his unparalleled ninja skills to achieve his goal.
