Ryū Kurosaki

Kisuke Shihōin (四楓院 喜助, Shihōin Kisuke) is a Jōnin from Konohagakure. He is the heir of the Shihōin Clan and one of the last surviving clan members.

Personality
Kisuke is a fun-loving, impulsive and adventurous person. He possesses a deep respect for life and freedom and is often reluctant to fight. He craves the stimulation of new people and places. He is very sharp-witted and often gets into trouble due to his quick tongue.

Within this carefree exterior however, Kisuke hides a great deal of guilt and mental burden due to his clan's bloody history. Very much the reluctant hero, he wishes he had been there to help his clan during their time of need. This initially caused him to conceal his true identity from friends, and he still has a tendency to slack off in his studies of the Ninja Arts, even though he naturally excels at it. He also tends to becomes very distressed when he sees destruction caused by the war, believing that he should do whatever he can to prevent such events from happening.

Kisuke prefers not to use his ninjutsu skills in battle due to his peaceful nature. He prefers to solve problems non-violently. Even when forced into combat, Kisuke typically holds back, fighting defensively and trying to subdue opponents without seriously hurting them, even if they are not human. The only exception to his pacifism is when his friends are threatened; in which case, he gets very angry and relentlessly attacks his opponents. But even in these extreme circumstances he has never taken a life.

Naitekigan
The Naitekigan (内的眼, Inner Eye) is a mysterious dojutsu that appeared in Kisuke's eyes only and grants him telepathic powers. It grants him the ability to manipulate the minds of others and even higher order animals within a vast radius. His powers use chakra and can thus be repulsed by chakra. So he finds it very easy to use his powers against animals and humans with little chakra control. But it takes more control and chakra to use the powers against beings with high chakra levels.


 * Telepathic Defense: He can manifest his telepathy in a number of defensive ways.


 * Telepathic Cloak: He can mask his presence and the use of his abilities from being detected by others. He can sometimes extend these defenses to others around him as well. Cloaking via telepathy is not perfect and a person with high chakra levels may notice and 'see' through this ability.


 * Psionic Blasts: He can project psionic force bolts which have no physical effects but which can affect a victim's mind so as to cause the victim pain or unconsciousness and turning someone brain-dead.


 * Healing: He can induce rapid healing in himself and others by taking control of their endocrine system and control the release of hormones in the body. By releasing increased amounts growth hormones he can cause the subjects body to start healing the injured part by increasing cell growth and reproduction. By using calcitonin he can make the body regrow bones and can thus regenerate the body parts to a degree. But if the gland responsible for creation of the hormone is destroyed then Sid cannot use these powers.


 * Telekinesis: He also gains telekinetic abilities which enable him to levitate himself or other objects, propel or manipulate them however he wishes, stimulate individual molecules to create heat, and generate concussive force or protective shields.
