Personality: Retsu has a very cool, detached outlook. He has been bullied about his abilities for most of his life and has developed many walls to keep people out of his life. He shields himself from people very well. Not many people can figure out what he is thinking behind his dark glasses.

As a result of being bullied intensely by his classmates and avoided by most of the villagers, Retsu has always felt animosity towards people in general, those living in Konoha specifically. He has buried the hatchet for now it seems, in the interest of working more efficiently, although when it will rise up again is uncertain. Yet despite his feelings of animosity, Retsu still has a sense of loyalty to the Village, a sense of duty that runs deeper than his resentment.

He prefers his own company to that of others, but through his fascination with insects he knows that there are benefits to working in a team, even if he hates doing so. When around people he speaks sparingly if at all, using very short sentences to get whatever point he wants to get across quickly. He especially dislikes those that talk during battle.

While he normally remains cool-headed in most situations, one sure way of knowing that you have annoyed or angered him is if a clicking noise starts to come from him, a sound of hundreds upon thousands of tiny wings. This is a warning, one that most people understand even if Retsu's facial expression and tone of voice do not change.

Retsu is rather philosophical when left to his own devices, and often spends hours contemplating the nature of the world and its subjects. He is also a genius when it comes to his Kikaichu, able to utilise them quicker than the average Aburame as well as creating new breeds with ease.

History:
Retsu was born into the Aburame family, a clan of insect-tamers. As with the rest of his family, he was given over to the bugs and made into a human hive. In return for the shelter and chakra he provided the bugs, also known as Destruction Bugs or Kikaichu, the insects do the hosts every bidding, usually defending or attacking when he enters battle. Many, if not all of the techniques Retsu uses include his Kikaichu in some way or form.

When he entered the Academy, Retsu was often treated as a freak thanks to his abilities with insects. While at first the jibes and hurtful things the other children said hurt him, eventually he stopped caring and just tuned them out, allowing their words to wash over him. He kept this shield up permanently, even around those in his own family. He spent most of his time alone, distancing himself from everyone. The fact that most of the people in Konoha avoided him whenever they could did not help his situation.

Unfortunately, this only seemed to encourage the worst of the bullies and one day, when Retsu was already in a foul mood thanks to being told off by his father for staying out too late, one of the kids, who was more intense in his bullying than the others, began the routine of throwing insults at him. When the child said something extremely unpleasant about Retsu's mother, the young insect-tamer snapped. He felt such an anger that he never before had experienced and he lost control of his Kikaichu, who attack the bully, feeding off his chakra.

Luckily, his father had come after Retsu since he had sensed his son's dangerous anger and stopped the attack by sending in his own bugs that fended off his sons' inexperienced assault. The bully was fine but nobody said anything to Retsu's face again (although that never stopped them whispering behind his back). He was harshly punished by his clan later. When graduation came, he passed with flying colours was made a Genin.

Over the passing years he became ever more withdrawn and solitary, often going weeks without speaking. He spent all his time with his Kikaichu, training with them and breeding them into new and better forms. While in a team of Genin he found himself, as usual, shunned by his fellow students and carefully watched by his teacher. This did not help his already deep feelings of seperation and isolation and he started to hold Konoha and its people in great disdain and would often terrorise anyone who attempted to get near his home (he had moved out of the Aburame compound to a more run-down part of the Village). One of the other Genin nicknamed him 'the creeper' and the name stuck, following him around every he went inside Konoha and further alienating him.

Eventually, he managed to breed a new kind of bug, which he called Kentankachu. These vicious little creatures did not just consume the chakra of a foe, but their flesh as well. He managed to do this by having them attack wild animals, despite the fact that their chakra supplies being virtually nil. In time, the bugs breed some interesting new features that allowed them to eat flesh and absorb the trace amount of energy within it. However, he found that this new breed became almost 'locked in' and was far harder to evolve into new types, which annoyed Retsu somewhat. When the other Aburame found out about these new Kikaichu, Retsu was considered as an outcast due to the disturbing nature of his bugs evolved ability.

Yet despite all this hate and fear that he had experienced from the other people, the young Aburame still feels an attachment to the Village. Whether this was from the upbringing of his clan or some other reason, he found that no matter how bady he was treated he could not bear to leave Konoha. He had wanted to so many times but could not bring himself to actually break from the Village. Teatering on the boarderline, it is only a matter of time before something happens that will make him give up on Konoha or make his peace and decide to stay.

Age: 17
Info: Retsu is a member of the Aburame clan and is a master of utilising his Kikaichu in battle. He is solitary individual and keeps to himself, rarely talking to strangers. He spends most of his time with insects and enjoys breeding them. He has even bred his own Kikaichu into a new, deadly form. He once came close to killing a fellow student when in the Academy but was stopped before any perminent injures were inflicted. Retsu is often kept at arms length by most people due to the general creepy air about him. Could become a threat to the civillians of Konohagakure if pushed over the edge.

Weaponry gets 2 specs. I have no idea why we dont have those rules posted.

So it looks like this:

Weaponry: Kenjutsu/Exoctic (Or ranged, close range, etc)

I thought that Weaponry as a recessive skill only gave you one slot of weaponry to choose?

(Edited Weaponry to include Kenjutsu to make it more clear)
