IC INFORMATION
Characters Name: Itachi Uchiha
Age: 21
Canon: Naruto
Canon Point: 401 (With Madara’s explanation being said true. He's dead.)
Species: Human
Gender: Male
Orientation:

Although canon prefers a subtle approach by mentioning Itachi to have a lover, they never really say who said lover was. It is hinted to it having been a male from time to time but there is no concrete proof. That being said, I don't think he holds a specific orientation. His focus has canonly been the well being of the brother he was trying to protect and his village, so it can be said his hard work has kept other interests at bay. He's a dedicated shinobi.

History: Background ; Here
Appearance: Here
Personality:

Itachi is a man of many troubles. Depending on the situation, he'll adapt to the certain ambiance. For example, if there is hostility in the air, Itachi can very much become the S-Ranked criminal he is feared to be. If the moments are calm and peaceful, he has no problem being kind... even if he calls it having some mercy. Despite the fact every one believed him to be an emotionless killer, he is quite the opposite. Emotions were always the over-all downfall of this man, he cared too much and feared the laws of breaking orders. He never, however, feared death or sacrifice. The day he became the spy against his own clan was the day he emotionally began to fall.

In a sense, Itachi always believed in peace no matter how troubled the times were. He understands perfectly well the balances of power and what happens when power is used incorrectly. Rationality, logic, and intelligence are virtues he respects highly and holds true to. Organization along with duty are two aspects that he deems necessary for peace to exist. Along side that, a person might consider him rather optimistic but, even so, his mentality only comes from the complete analysis of a situation. If he sees something wrong, like a flaw in the upcoming events, he might very much think twice of going on. Itachi understands the meaning of surrender. He prefers a more diplomatic and intelligent fix then actual fighting over it. He's been so traumatized of war.

Around people, he can be rather quiet but it doesn't mean he isn't much of a talker. His sociable attitude all depends on the person he'll be exchanging words with. If he's surrounded by ignorance then he will most likely stay silent in attempts to show the person a lesson in manners or simply to give them a hint he's not interested. One can consider him to hold a sense of humor despite the probable truth that one will probably never see or hear him laugh- he's been so emotionally scarred.

How he acts with people also depends on who he's with. For example, had there been someone of the Akatsuki about while he saw someone in need, he would more than likely ignore the person with out a glance yet, were he alone, the possibility that he would approach with a helping hand would be greater. Considering he's surrounded by his fellow members of the Akatsuki, he feels like he has to keep that vision of evil and strength the others carry despite the fact he can live without a fight.

Abilites:

Shinobi Training
Every shinobi has gone through special training that involves strength building, speed enhancing, and in this case chakra manipulation. Itachi is skilled in both hand and weapon combat on various levels. His chakra levels are incredibly high and his abilities and techniques rank in some of the highest. Considering how he was able to make it to the second highest rank in the shinobi world (ANBU Captain) he has the potential to be a deadly foe.

Sharingan
Itachi was born to the Uchiha clan and is a pure blooded wielder of the infamous Sharingan. He has the strength and dexterity to anticipate attacks and counter them. It takes amazing stamina and strength to be able to take the effects of the Sharingan because it eventually uses up chakra. Itachi has become an expert wielder of his clans legacy.

Because he is a true Uchiha, he has the mastery of the fire element. Most, not all, of his attacks will fall by his fire mastery.

Mangekyo Sharingan
Can be explained as a 'next level' sharingan he gained when he murdered a man he considered a friend. The process can be known as "stealing your eyes" as they like to call it, one literally gains the power of the other. He is able to hold two strong types of genjutsu and ninjitsu. On his right eye he can do Amatarasu (ninjitsu) which creates a burning ball of black flames that can literally be controlled by him and burn through anything. His left eye has Tsukuyomi (genjutsu) which traps a person in Itachi's dream world where they will suffer three days of torture while in reality only passing a single second in the real world.

The last and final technique is the most dangerous: Susanoo. With this, Itachi has the ability to lock someone forever in a genjutsu state by attacking with a spectral blade. It uses most of his chakra but it can be a finishing move to anyone (for example, Orochimaru).

Other: He's canonly known to have an illness, I like to assume his use of chakra keeps him breathing. Can I be allowed to play with this?

SAMPLES
First Person:

VIDEO;
[This place was definitely peculiar. After waking up in a lounging chair outside of an unfamiliar home, Itachi had gotten onto his feet and walked a few blocks down the road. He was no fool, he knew exactly where the house he was now an apparent owner of stood. Itachi just wanted to explore.]

We have truly been deceived by this illusion of peace. I see tranquility, a sense of calm, and yet that cannot blur the truth: we are prisoners.

[He had found his way to where he had been told the one responsible for all of this lived but he didn't pass by the front gate. No, he stood there, eyebrows furrowed and tenth clenched under pursed lips.]

I hear he expects us to live a life anew. Hm. [He goes silent for a moment, heavy-lashed eyes closing for a brief moment as if he were tired. It's always the same thing.]

An old trick furnished with a different veil. Kisame, report. Anyone.

Third Person:

The rain never ceased for what appeared to be ages now. Drop after drop, shower after shower- the heavens above them wept with no sign of condolence or end. Like many curious things in the Uchiha’s every-day life, this was a bad omen.

Somewhere behind him from where he was perched, he heard the shuffling of fabric as his partner moved about to and fro in the apartment they had checked into during their stay in a small town. To Itachi's surprise and amusement, the rain had made his comrade an impatient wreck seeing as they were forced to stay inside because of Itachi. Kisame had not uttered retort or complaint about it, but Itachi sensed it. The air about him seemed to carry a small tinge of anxiety and sternness in relation to the peaceful ambiance Itachi had been trying to reach for however many days they had been here for.

Whether something was wrong with his companion or not, Itachi knew he would undoubtedly never know about. The two were partners but their relationship was simply business. No one spoke of emotions, that was just simply unheard of in their trade. What did you expect from a crowd of murderers? Itachi learned to ignore how inhumane it made things seem. He had learned to ignore a lot of things.

They had been staying in this place since Itachi had used up most of his chakra at the last fight, he had set his mind to meditating in order to gain back his strength a little faster faster. Kisame had become impatient and kept reminding him of how careless it had been with those foolish over-protective retorts his partner made sure to claim; as if the man knew more of the curse Itachi was struck with than he did. The memory made Itachi smirk, his comrades' actions were not annoying, simply ironic. Who would have thought that even the most horribly heartless criminals could care enough about anything that wasn't theirs?

Thunder rumbled in the heavens as he moved to open the window panes in attempts to let a small breeze of cool air in. It was rather nourishing, fresh air helped sorting that peaceful ambiance into place. Itachi didn't like the moisture in the air but the sound of rain was far too relaxing to ignore. Red eyes surveyed the street below.

Various umbrellas loomed about like floating ghosts as the rain fell on them. Like a mourning funeral, every black top moved at the same speed, in lines. How pathetic, he thought to himself bringing a hand below his chin as he leaned on the sill. Everyone walks forward in life not knowing, not caring…

A tendril of color joined the black masses, it started as a blur due to his faulting eyesight but then, gradually, he realized it was an umbrella. Red. It stood out over the looming ghosts and even defied the norms and picked up its speed. The curious sight caught his attention and he continued to follow it before realizing it was a child, he moved the umbrella from over his dark hair and Itachi could see him looking up, mesmerized by the rain.

The child looked up as the rain poured over him, the umbrella forgotten at his wrist. He laughed, he danced, he played- and Itachi heaved a heavy sigh. He remembered when that child could have passed as his little brother, with that same wild craze for adventure, a smile from ear to ear... He was lost in memories of the past when the door swung open and Kisame appeared, ecstatic about something. For a few brief seconds, Itachi stared at him confused.

"Victory!" He exclaimed sticking his head in beckoning his comrade to follow. "They're on the move!"

And just like that, any emotions of the past left him and he became Itachi, the murderer of the Uchiha clan, in a second. He looked out the window and glared at the child as a parent began scolding and pushing him under another black umbrella, merging with the masses. He closed the window with a firm snap and closed his eyes for a few seconds only to open them with the Sharingan in play. The memories were placed back the farthest portion of his mind.
