Name:Masaro Kugutsu
Age:17
Rank:Genin
Gender:Male
Clan:Kugutsu
Appearance:Masaro is a average boy with jet black hair that is almost shoulder length. On top of his head is a short mohawk that he has had since he was a child. He is usually seen wearing a black tank top with red tribal designs on it. Masaro also wears black baggy pants and black ninja sandals.During the winter he wears a trench coat that has the same designs as his shirt. He has bright red eyes and a long scar on his face that runs from his left eye to his mouth, but he was considered to be very handsome by all of the girls when he was a teen.
Personality and History:As a kid Masaro was very quiet and all he did was study. He was a loner as a teen and had no friends. No one ever understood Masaro because he never let anyone become close enough to him to learn anything about him. As he aged Masaro's feelings kept building up inside of him until he just couldn't take it anymore. The only friends he ever had was his puppets, which he got when he was just a chuunin. He got them from a strange old lady who excelled in puppetry. She kept him under her wing for a few months until one day he found out she had died. This changed Masaro, and it caused him to release all of his suppressed feelings. Using the skills in puppetry he had got from his former teacher, Masaro became obsessed with them. Masaro started killing people and making puppets out of them and when his village found out they wanted to get rid of him. He escaped his village when he was a jounin and with his puppets, he became a missing-nin. Masaro is now very cold hearted and doesn't care for any humans. The only things he cares about now are his ten puppets, which are his only memory of his old teacher.

Name: Kugutsu no Jutus (Puppet Technique)
Type: Offensive, Defensive, Supplementary, Short to mid-range (0-10m)
Rank: C
CK: 4 To Activate, 2 per turn
This jutsu uses strings of chakra to control puppets like marionettes. Any number of chakra strings can be used to control a puppet, but users with more skill can use fewer strings per puppet. Both Chiyo and Sasori demonstrated the ability to control entire puppets perfectly using just one string. While most puppeteers would normally be able to control ten puppets at most (one per finger), Sasori's self-modification allowed him to control up to one hundred puppets at a time.
Apart from being used to control marionettes, the chakra strings can be attached to other objects, allowing the user to control, or at the very least disrupt, other things. In one instance, Kankuro uses chakra strings to trip Naruto Uzumaki when they first meet. In another, Chiyo uses chakra strings to control a person like a puppet.
This technique has few weaknesses: since the puppeteer uses his or her hands to manipulate the puppets, if the hands are disabled, then the technique could be neutralized. Also, while controlling the doll, the user is wide open if the opponent bypasses the puppet. For this reason, puppeteers avoid battle, relying almost exclusively on their puppets instead.
Name: Hitokugutsu (Human Puppets)
Type: Supplementary
Rank: S
CK: 200
A technique developed by Sasori of the Red Sand, this allows him to create puppets from human corpses. As Sasori was the only person to know how to create human puppets, this technique became lost forever when he died.
By removing the internal organs of a foe and preserving the body to prevent decomposition, as well as adding weapons and defenses, Sasori can make powerful human puppets. These puppets are different from normal ones, as they retain their use of chakra and any Kekkei Genkai that the human host once had. Sasori developed this during his time in Sunagakure, and he claims to have 298 of them, using 103 in his battle with Sakura and Chiyo.
This body conversion method can also be used on still living, as Sasori turned himself into a puppet while still maintaining his life and mind.
One of Sasori's most powerful techniques revolving around the Human Puppets is the Red Secret Technique: Performance of a Hundred Puppets, which, with his own puppet body modifications, allows him to control one hundred human puppets, a feat impossible for even the most elite puppet users. Though they lack team work, they are used to overpower the enemies through attrition, and was claimed to have taken down an entire nation.
Equipment:Masaro carries a single pack with him that contains 10 scrolls that each have a puppet in them.
