Hotaru Hyuuga

Hotaru Hyuuga (ホタル, Hyuuga Hotaru) is a shinobi of Konohagakure. His status as a half-Hyuuga has left him as a pariah among the clan.

Appearance Academy As a young academy student, Hotaru's hair was shoulder-length and left loose. He wore a simple cream colored shirt with long baggy sleeves over a pair of black pants and ankle-high blue sandals. Hotaru's caged bird seal was covered by a white headband.

Part I Hotaru's hair is tied into a low, rib-length ponytail. He wore an over-sized button-up V-neck shirt with baggy sleeves over a dark grey fishnet shirt with black pants and ankle-high dark blue sandals. Hotaru's hitai-ate is on his forehead.

Part II His hair remains the same. He now wears a sleeveless cream-colored zip-up hoodie with the Hyuuga clan's symbol on the left side of his chest over a short-sleeved black shirt. His pants and ankle-high sandals are black.

Personality (TBA)

Abilities Chakra Control Hotaru, by far, has the best chakra control out of Team Kyou. As a genin, he easily completed the tree climbing practice, even taking the time to show off to Yayoi and Ashi.

Byakugan As a Hyuuga, Hotaru possesses the Byakugan, a dōjutsu that grants him penetrative vision in a near-360° around himself, with one blind spot at the back of the neck above the first thoracic vertebra. It allows him to track and scout from far away. Notably, Hotaru uses the Byakugan to supplement his archery skills.

Archery Hotaru is highly proficient with a bow and arrow, even when his Byakugan isn't active. Years of practice, starting before he even entered the academy, have made Hotaru an accurate shot, capable of striking even the most agile of shinobi with ease.

Taijutsu Like all Hyuugas, Hotaru was taught his clan's signature Gentle Fist fighting style, which uses the Byakugan's inhuman sight to directly strike the opponent's chakra system. Even a weak strike can cause severe damage, ranging from a temporarily constricted chakra system all the way to organ damage and even death. Due to Gentle Fist's inherent strength, even the sickly Hotaru can be a formidable fighter.

Ninjutsu Compared to most Hyuuga, Hotaru uses ninjutsu quite often. He uses Fire Release to make his arrows more dangerous or to create a makeshift flare.

Agility Hotaru is incredibly fast, having trained his agility and reflexes in order to make up for his frailness. His speed and usage of Gentle Fist allow him to strike and get away before his opponents have time to react.
