History:
Tomonosuke was born from the blood of hardened samurai warriors. His parents, Tomohiro and Shisume, raised him to be a respectable and knowledgeable young man. His father was the younger brother of the famed shinobi Kaido Sasaki. The war veteran Tomohiro had always lived in the shadow of his older brother. Due to his shortcomings, he pushed the knowledge he had on to his offspring to surpass him. Sasaki clan training was already a cruel and demeaning. Though, his father would up the ante when it came to his oldest son, Tomonosuke. There was no escaping a father’s wrath and the perfection that predated generations of perfection. Each day would get easier before they would then become more difficult.
Years were spent training and preparing his body. With each failure, came punishment. There was little to no mercy concerning their training. Tomonosuke would appreciate the training throughout the years as it honed not just his body, but his personality and his view on life. He learned to love the torment his body went through as he trained. There was a peculiar semblance of peace that he found when training. Learning the sword style of his clan from an early age, also helped him form discipline. He trained with in the use of the katana before moving onto larger swords such as the nodachi. Like many of his clansmen, he was a natural with the sword. It was an area that he loved to train in the most also. When not training, he took on roles that supported the clan such as guarding the capital and patrolling the clan’s territories. That would happen up until the point that the Sasaki clan joined the ranks of Kumogakure.
It was on one of his night patrols that him and one of his clansman came across a small family of refugees. The family obviously didn’t know that they were passing through Sasaki lands. The family had been chased by a small band of bandits. Tomonosuke didn’t want to call for back up. He knew his conscientiousness wouldn’t allow for the family to be attacked. It wasn’t that it was his duty as there were trespassers. The fact that someone was in need of help and needed protection. Tomonosuke quickly engaged himself in combat. He didn’t even care that the bandits even noticed him. Him and his clansman struggled for what seemed like hours taking on the bandits. Tomonosuke even has scars to this day that reminds him of the encounter. Each second would be burned into his psyche. It was his first life or death situation.
He would find every ounce of strength he had diminish as he had been able to dispatch a few of the bandits. The fact that he was losing blood didn’t help either. His fellow clansman he urged to go get help as he would put himself in continued danger. Tomonosuke noticed the effects of the training take hold as he was able to push himself. Surviving this conflict would be a testament to himself of where he was physically and mentally. The samurai warrior would take three lives that day. Eventually, backup would arrive and quickly dispatch the remnant of the bandits. The family he tried to protect didn’t go unharmed, but they survived with minimal injuries. Tomonosuke spent only one day recuperating before he would go back to a modified training regiment. Within the week, he had returned to what would be the Sasaki usual training. The training would hurt and yet he would endure through the pain. The events that transpired had brought about a new feeling within Tomonosuke. The will of a guardian...a hero.
Personality:
Tomonosuke is one that seems to get along with everybody. Though he spends a lot of time alone, he enjoys spending time with others. He is a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to training. Giving up is hard for him to comprehend. When his mind is set on an objective, that’s what he will put his energy behind. Fighting and working to protect those around him is a big deal for him. Years of combat and harsh training formed a desire to help those around him. He had seen what happens to those that can’t keep up in combat. Tomonosuke is determined to protect those that can’t protect themselves. Tomonosuke is an individual who is not afraid to lay his life on the line for a comrade. Sasaki training has ingrained hard work and dedication into his very being. He generally wishes good on his subordinates. Those he deems an enemy are those he deems not worthy to live. It is hard for him to forgive those that hurt innocent people. Tomonosuke has a good heart and enjoys having his accomplishments praised.

Roleplay Sample:
- Spoiler:
Tomohiro had decided to spend some time away from the village. It had been awhile since he had any form of break or vacation. It had been mostly back to back missions for the last few days. Before that, it was mostly helping out within the family mines. He wanted to get his mind off of anything he could that didn’t remind him of his duties within the village. It was just him and Assam braving out the wilderness. The ninneko wasn’t as much as a handful as he had been in the past. Assam was getting bigger and Tomohiro wasn’t sure how much bigger the tiger would get. The tiger was still small, but seemed to be growing faster within the past few weeks. Tomohiro was trying his best to teach the ninneko how to hunt. Assam seemed like he was struggling to grasp the concept of staying hidden. The tiger would attempt chase after anything that would move. This also included other predators. Tomohiro believed that the tiger would catch on eventually. That was if the two of them didn’t get killed first. Tomohiro could see the potential that the tiger had. It was mostly maturity that was lacking from the equation. Dealing with this made Tomohiro question himself if raising children was anything like this.
The two of them were crouched down within the high brush. Tomohiro had constantly tried to talk Assam through being patient and waiting for that opportune moment.. The tiger kept rubbing his head against Tomo’s chest as the Nakir sighed. This seemed like it wasn’t getting any easier. Maybe he was asking for too much. This was about as good as it was probably going to get. The tiger purred loudly as one of the deer they had been following had lifted its head. Tomohiro’s eyes would squint toward the deer as he thought about the opportunity they were going to miss if this kept up. Maintaining his crouched position he pushed the blade of Ryuushi upward from its sheath. He almost wanted to let the animals go, but then neither of them would get to eat. Tomohiro could go without food, but Assam was young and he would never treat his junior that way. Assam needed to toughen up, but the tiger had been overly spoiled no thanks to him. Tomohiro had only himself to blame for that. He vowed to make the tiger a fighting machine, but couldn’t even teach him how to kill. Little did he know, the tiger was taking everything in. Assam had been acting the part of the foolish student while actually fooling his master. Tomohiro was quite tired of Assam’s charades. Plus, the hunger was starting to get to him.
Tomohiro had push flexed his muscles after releasing a calming breath through his teeth. Another deer raised its head at the feeling of bloodlust that came from Tomohiro’s breath. Out of the corner of his eye Assam had sprung forward and tackled one of the deer to the ground. Assam struggled to hold it down. As Tomohiro dashed forward slicing the deers neck thorough and deep. The shinobi continued to move forward and kicked another doe to the ground as he slit its throat as it attempted to escape. The deer quickly rushed to its feet before collapsing a few meters. The doe hit the ground with a soft thud. Tomohiro flourished his blade before it made its way back home in its sheath. Tomohiro slightly smiled at Assam as the tiger started gnawing on the hide of the deer without breaking the skin of the carcass. Tomohiro would fling a deer over each shoulder as he began making his way toward their camp. Well, wherever that was. Tomohiro had sort of lost track of the direction they decided to lay their heads for the night. It was a makeshift shelter that he made from scratch out of the leaves, sticks, and brush that he could find. Plus, he could track his way back to it. The only issue was that they had spent beyond a couple of hours tracking down their prey. Making their way back would take some time. He wasn’t sure how long that was going to take. The fact also remains that he would need to field strip the deer before the blood ruined the meat.
