**Yasumasa** (*靖正*) is a Shinobi from the Land of Wind where he is the Jinchūriki of the **One-Tail**, Shukaku.

## Personality

Few things can come between him and his gourd of elixirs; Yasumasa is known as the village drunk. His reputation of being an esteemed jinchuriki is dwarfed by countless nights in and out of taverns. Some say his habit arose as a result of insomnia - Shukaku’s penchant for torture driving him to addiction. Much like his tailed beast, the young man is immovable in his desire to both drink and think. Village elders and squad leaders struggle to keep him fettered and some even claim that one day he may defect with the tailed beast altogether.

Beneath the surface of his sea of liquor, Yasumasa holds within him compassion and kindness which seeps through in his attempts to reconcile and understand ichibi. Even in a drunken stupor he is willing to risk his own skin for another, though he will complain and belittle all parties involved along the way. All-in-all, Yasumasa cannot stand a person who disregards human life and is determined to keep Shukaku in check regardless of the tailed beasts’ motives.

## Main Abilities

#### Magnet Release

Magnet Release is a unique nature transformation which he gained after his body became the host of Shukaku. This essentially allows him to apply magnetic force to other substances to manipulate them freely. Yasumasa mainly integrates Magnet Release with the Puppet Technique to control them without strings or even summons puppets through sand. He is also capable of integrating Lightning Release to manipulate electro-magnetic fields to an extent. However, do to his stubborn relationship with Shukaku, he remains reluctant to utilize Magnet Release.

#### Puppet Master

Being a Puppet Master is more than just attaching chakra threads to a puppet and manipulating it. It's an entire process from blueprint to fabrication. To be able to design a puppet and then engineer it into a functioning puppet, and then use it in combat, requires an ingenious mind. That's why not everyone can do it. It may be the thoughts of a drunk, but that is why the puppets that Yasumasa design are complex and odd. Whatever comes to mind, he'll try to design and create. At heart, he's an engineer who loves to solve puzzles and for his schematics to come to life. He's developed countless puppets and uses imperceptibly thin chakra threads to give the appearance that they are threadless. Yasumasa can also connect the chakra threads to humans and disrupt victim's flow of chakra, thus hindering their ability to use techniques and causing them extreme pain.

Despite having knowledge of Human Puppets, Yasumasa at the time has decided to not create human puppets for personal reasons. When asked by others, he declines having such knowledge and that he does not have any interest in creating them because it's disgusting thinking of cleaning out organs.

### Other Abilities

#### Taijutsu

While not his primary style of combat, Yasumasa is quite skill in hand-to-hand combat and capable of holding his own. He's shown potential in advancing his taijutsu abilities and hopes one day to learn the Seven Heavens Breathing Method in order to enhance his physical abilities. Yasumasa's expertise lie in striking and grappling, something he excels highly in as he is very aware of how momentum and joints factor into movement due to his extensive research of the human body for his puppets.
