Ryuu Utsukushi is the leader of team 12. He is highly skilled in ninjutsu and possesses a mass amount of chakra as well as the ability to control it. Kakashi once stated that Ryuu's own ability in ninjutsu rivaled his own. Ryuu was once persecuted for his ability. Being an Utsukushi he was the target of many assignation attempts during the Utsukushi massacre. For his own protection the ANBU requested his resignation for a short period of time. After receiving news of his mother's death Ryuu fell into deep depression. He was let go as a shinobi all together for nearly a year until his depression sub-sided.

Personality
Ryuu has a temper and while it is not as nearly nasty as Arato or Mitsumi's he still has one. He is generally quite caring gentle but merciless in battle. He is polite and pretty easy going. Despite his laid-back demeanor he is prone to taking everything to heart. Ryuu has mastered the art of masking his inner feelings. Even when he is completely depressed he can smile and say nothing is wrong and many time people believe it. The only person truly capable of reading Ryuu is Kakashi who is a close friend.
