Zaku

Zaku (ザク) was an orphan from the Land of Haro, and a descendant of the Shinto Clan.

Appearence
Zaku was a young man with an androgynous appearance. He had long black hair, pale skin and large, dark-brown eyes, a slender frame, and was also quite short for his age. Zaku's normal shinobi outfit consisted of the standard Kirigakure pinstriped outfit which stopped at his knees. Over this he wore a green haori with white trimmings, and around his waist a brown sash with a fringed trail wrapped around his waist twice. He also wore light-brown platoon sandals with straps in the same colour as his kimono and nail polish on his fingernails and toenails in matching blue green colour. When wearing this outfit, Zaku's long hair was gathered in a white bun holder, while two locks of his hair fell loose framing his face, bound with metal hair cuffs at the ends.

Prototype Yamata no Orochi Arc
Zaku was born in a small, snowy village in the Land of Haro, a land that had a lot of countries suffered from war not long before. In this war, different sides battled each other using ninja, some of whom possessed kekkei genkai. After the war ended, memories of the horrific battles since the Creation of Heaven Tail. Those with kekkei genkai quickly became feared and hated for their abilities, out of concern that the Tailed Beasts existence would only bring about more chaos. Zaku's Father and Mother were simple farmers, and they lived a peaceful life. They loved each other, and were kind to their child. Unfortunately, this would all change. Zaku's mother was a wielder of a kekkei genkai: Ice Release. She hid this fact from her husband, hoping that the love and peace that was shared in their small family would last forever. One day, Haku discovered the ability to manipulate water. Amazed by this, Zaku proudly showed this to his mother, who was horrified by what she saw. She harshly scolded and slapped Zaku for displaying his ability, though she tearfully apologised to him afterwards. Unbeknownst to them, Zaku's Father had seen everything from the shadows. When the Prototype Orochi saw Zaku, The Prototype Orochi killed Zaku's Father and Mother. Paul Gekko was able to tranform the Prototype Dragon into a Biometal to avenge Zaku's Parents. Orphaned, Zaku became a child who was wanted by no one and was forced to take to the cold streets. In time, he was confronted by Uryu.
