Masked Shinobi: a

The first of three masked Shinobi and their apparent leader. None of three Masked Shinobi speak a word, but each wears a unique mask. Code-named "a", the leader wears a Guy Fawkes mask and wields an ancient, ragged sword. He wears a cloak with no apparent regional connection and has a rare, lightning and water chakra nature combination.

He possesses the spirit of the Fourth Ancient Guardian of the Shinobi World, a black furred lion with a pure white mane. He has shown himself to be more than capable of overpowering each member of Sazoku as well as each member of the Internal Ninja Council's field squad (namely Amber, Arc, and Toshiro) and has shown himself to be stronger or evenly matched with Zane Sentana multiple times.

I've taken quite a hiatus from submissions, but I'm back again and will be slowly putting up the artworks I've done in he mean time, here's the first of the Masked Shinobi, the antagonists of the second half of the Ninja Council series. The other two are drawn up, and just need to have their backgrounds shopped out. 

Hope you all enjoy,
