Name (& Meaning): Shantoiki Ayatori "beautiful sigh" "cat's cradle" Age: 16 Country & Affiliation: Konoha / Shantoiki Clan Rank: Chuunin Chakra Alignment: Fire Special Jutsu Ability: Aya rarely uses actual ninjutsu or genjutsu and will generally fight with taijutsu, more specifically a style she has painstakingly taught herself called koen-ken, or tiger swallow fist. It's a style she's worked through studying her tiger's movements, and combines the strength of a tiger and the grace of a swallow.Weapon: A pair of kusarigama. She always has her tiger, Yosome ("another's eyes"), by her side in battle.
Physical Description/Picture: Aya keeps a pair of odango in her black hair, liking how it resembles a pair of cat ears, leaving the rest to fall down to around mid-thigh. Her eyes are a deep jade green - appearing to almsot be black until reflected in the right light. She stands at about five feet and four inches. She wears a white dress with metal-studded leather bands aroud both her upper arms, one about her upper right thigh, a pair of gauntlets, and one about her upper chest that sweeps around to her back to form a holster on her back for her kusarigama. Aya Yosome
Background: Aya grew up around the outer edges of Konoha, living on a rather large estate due to both her large family clan and the animals her family keeps. Each member of the Shantoiki clan has a special affinity to a certain breed of cat, most tending to smaller or medium breeds such as her mother with lynxes, her cousins' mountain cats or caracal, or her little brother's fishing cats. Few dare to take on large cats - some even straying so far from it as to simply raise domestic cats. Aya, however, felt an immediate kinship with a white tiger kitten that she managed to rescue from the mountains when she was younger. Yosome and Aya were never apart from that time on. Her room is even on the lower level of the house, the outer two walls mainly of net, for when Yosome was too large to sleep inside - though throughout the warmer months, Aya will sleep outside with the tiger.
She grew up pretty close with her family, receiving most of her training there after the academy, so she's so far never been placed on a team. Despite this, she's quite used to dealing with groups and is very friendly, amongst alsoalso being very determined and focused in her training - little can distract her from one of her sessions. She's gone out on a few missions with her family through the years after her academy graduation when she was eleven. But since she's gained her chuunin rank, she's been nudged toward venturing out into the village more to interact with others in the possibility that she'll be placed on a team.
Jutsu List: Yosome Naruhodo no Jutsu (Another's Eyes, I See): A simple technique she uses to be able to see through the eyes of her tiger. Not really something she can use in battle, but is rather useful in spying or seeing ahead.
The rest of her jutsu are far more simple, and involve manipulation through her kusarigama - making the blades longer, making spikes on the weights at the ends of the chains, or fire chakra through the chain.

Name (& Meaning): Minamoto no Yorihisa Age: 25 Country & Affiliation:Rank: N/A - Guardian of Princess Chakra Alignment: Wind Special Jutsu Ability: Yorihisa isn't a ninja, but a samurai - all his wind attacks come from his sword. Physical Description/Picture: Yorihisa wears several layers of kimono with a large belt about his waist. His katana is kept at his side. His dark blue hair is always pulled back into a ponytail, and eyes are a deep shade of blue, and he stands at about five feet, eight inches. In his upper left ear is a blue jewel. YorihisaBackground: Yorihisa was born into an ancient family of samurai, and was raised by his brother, Sanehisa. One day, Sanehisa told his little brother of an ancient creature that lived in a nearby forest known as a Nue. Intrigued by the tales of such a fearsome creature, an eight-year-old Yorishisa set out to track one down to test his strength. Upon finding it, he discovered it was the last of its kind. Year after year, Yorihisa would return to the forest to see if he could defeat the Nue, who was inherently strong. Through this time, the Nue became Yorihisa’s friend – even telling him that true strength does not come from a simple desire to be stronger, but that you must have something that you wish to be stron enough to protect. After losing his brother, Yorihisa stopped dreaming as he slept, not wanting to face his brother’s ghost in his dreams. He has come to be Princess ‘s personal bodyguard – and is often quick to draw his sword, preferring to risk hurting someone that he should not rather than to risk the princess. One day, he found himself facing the Nue once again. The creature had been possessed by demons and, not wanting to lose himself to the thing that they made him become, attacked the stronghold where Yorihisa guards the princess to force him into a battle that would end his life, threatening that if Yorihisa did not stop him, he would attack and kill those in the stronghold, including the princess. So he was forced to kill his old friend in order to keep her safe, and in this learned the lesson that the Nue was trying to teach him long ago – true strength comes from protecting those things and people that you care for. Since that day, the samurai has lamented the loss of the Nue – both in that he was forced to kill his only remaining friend, and that it had been at his hands such a beautiful and ancient creature became officially extinct. Thus, he has developed a low tolerance for warfare and actions that endanger the lives of innocents. Rather than to try to allow this new belief to over-shadow his life as a samurai, Yorihisa has instead combined them and found some level of harmony. This new harmony helps to calm him further in battle to allow for swift action instead of simple reaction. Still swift to draw his sword, he will fight those who would threaten that which should be protected, quick to act on hunches of how he feels about a person and attack rather than to risk that his hunch be proven right – the only power that can stop or spur his actions otherwise is the princess, as he follows her commands no matter how he may feel about them.

Hi there... I was thinking about taking up a secondary made up character so here is the profile!
Name (& Meaning):Kishuu Arashi... but just Arashi (Quiche Storm) Age:17 Country & Affiliation:Hoshigakure Rank:Jounin Chakra Alignment: Lighting Special Jutsu Ability: Lightning Jutsu has been passed on in the Kishuu clan for years. Physical Description/Picture:Arashi Kishuu Background: Arashi Kishuu was named for the night she was born. The worst storm in centuries happened to be that very night, yet the moment she left her mother's woman she was a surprisingly temperate and sweet baby not making a sound. Her mother didn't make a sound either. She died in childbirth, leaving the girl with her kind, sweet but womanizing father. Her father adores her, buying her all sorts of things growing up but still goes through many wives. The Kishuu clan is the most infamous clan of the Hoshigakure for its strength in lightning skilled jutsus.
Her last name of Kishuu suited her more than the wild storm she was named after in her childhood. In her youth, she remained silent, only speaking when spoken to, only eating when told to eat and only sleeping when told to sleep. The displined girl made a fine, yet unresponsive almost cold student and overall, her clan was pleased with her strict upbringing. She was considered the most beautiful of her six sisters and five brothers, all from various mothers. Her hair was fine and silky to the touch and her stoic face gave her the appearence of a remote statue of a greek goddess. Her hair was cut in a simple yet refined why and many men flock to her yet she simply finds no use to them.
Some say that when she finds a man who persistantly and stubbornly assists that he adores her, she will finally find herself in love. She refuses most men... finding them annoying however, knows that when one will go the distance to prove himself, then she will be impressed.
As she grw older, her fascination with lightning became more and more apparent. She loved how it would light up the night with its glow and excitement of the feeling before a storm. The feeling of it brewing and tossing and turning makes her senses go wild. It wasn't long until as a young genin she was asking to learn how to utilize such strength and power of the element. Since the studies began she has devoted herself completely to the sky and lightning. She has no passion for any other element and finds lightning to be incredibly superior to all elements.
She is not completely unemotional however, if she does show emotion it is normally to retailate against something or voice her opinion on an attack plan. She remains loyal to the Hoshigakure, the lowly village of the stars but longs to adventure slightly more. She can be cruel and judging and sarcastic yet soft when it comes to children and animals. She is not shy just finds no need for people. Jutsu List: Lightning Release · Lightning Blast [Raikou Bakuha No Jutsu] A technique that utilizes lightning fired from the fingers. The handseals for this jutsu are, Rooster, Horse, Ox With this technique, you can fire off fire off lightning bolts from the fingertips.

That can leave their entire body temporarily paralyzed. RP Challenge: Challenge 1: Action Arashi never faltered upon seeing the large amount of lava form in front of her very eyes. She quirked her head in mild curiousity in fact at the porposterious size of the ridiculous looking pool. However, she did not underestimate its power whatsoever. Her long dark hair was pulled from her eyes apart from the straight edge bangs. She blinked softly before crouching slightly watching his hand seals very carefully before decided to end this before he could even have a chance to start it. She had spent some time perfecting this techinique and it was time to put this in action.
Her fingers twitched into action, creating the familiar handseals in retailation to his lava pool. Horse, Goat, Serpant... "Yusuburu Kasugai No Jutsu!" She called forth, sending out a large bolt of electricity towards the man's body. If her attack went as planned, which was very likely in her mind, the lighting should send a jolt of electric shock through him, rendering him paralysed for several moments, giving her just enough to time to rethink an escape plan from the pooling lava. A small smirk came to her lips at the very thought.
Challenge 2: Social
It had been exactly three days since she had come to stay in the main branch household, truely they were a welcoming family... one that had taken her in while she remained in Konoha on her mission for the Hoshikage. The main branch household was large as was the secondary branch's yet she could not understand what was so different between the two. Both seemed alike in power and dignity and yet one served the other? Such a mystery.. to her...
As she ate in silenced, her morning breakfast of sweet papaya and grapefruit, she couldn't help but look to the children who played loudly with oneanother. She watched in silence with cold calculating eyes yet let a smile grace her lips for just a moment. Even she had been subjected to such play as a young child, though she only played with a select few. She was often considered by her father, far too prim and beautiful to play with boys. She leaned on her hand, forward, her dark hair slipping from behind her ears and her eyes narrowing at them in thought. She bit her lower lip oddly and then smiled softly.
She spotted a boy suddenly, eating over by the children a play. She immediately straightened up and tucked her kimono closed at the top. She normally allowed it to remain open in the mornings. She had forgotten she was not alone. She blinked, her smile fading. She was slightly annoyed, his presence had ruined her nostalgia. She wnet back to eating her fruit... finding no need to talk to him.

Name (& Meaning): Danno (field gathering) Rai (lightning) Age: 19 Country & Affiliation: Amegakure & Akatsuki Rank: Jounin Chakra Alignment: Fire && Lightning Special Jutsu Ability: Though he’s related to Kana, he doesn’t share the Keki genkai she bares. Unfortunatly he was the black sheep of both the outer and inner clan, not to mention the laughing stock of it. However he’s able to manipulate both chakras almost virtually at the same time-allowing his staff to both extend and become a firey blaze, fire shooter. Rather handy. Physical Description/Picture:  Background: Being the Black sheep was always tough on him. However Kana kept close to him and tongue-lashed the family that talked about him in front of her. Not that it didn’t continue anyways. Being alive when Deidara left the village he fled after him due to the fact he was in love with the males art, and maybe even the male himself. Iwa declared him to be a traitor, and he joined Amegakure under Peins rule. His inner fire for explosives is apparently why he’s attracted to him, along with the whole long haired thing. This also makes him question his sexuality, but he doesn’t really care much. He’s still in contact with Kana, acting as a double agent and thus giving her information on the Akatsuki. He’s an underling for Itachi who retrieves information for the Uchiha. Sometimes on the elders younger brother, or on various ninja or villages. Jutsu List: Dai Endan - Great Fireball: Dai Endan is a Ninjutsu technique utilizing the Fire element. Rai will first gather the fire into his mouth and then spew a giant breath of fire constantly at his opponent. Endan – Fireball: Katon • Endan is a Ninjutsu technique utilizing the Fire Element. This jutsu allows Rai to emit a jet of fire from his mouth. Goukakyuu no Jutsu - Great Fireball Technique: Katon • Goukakyuu no Jutsu is a Ninjutsu technique utilizing the Fire Element. The ninja does the necessary hand seals, draws chakra from their mouth into their chest and them immediately exhales it. They then blow a stream of fire which erupts into a large sphere of flames. To better manage the flames the ninja will bring their hand to their mouth to control it. Haisekishou - Burning Ash Accumulation: Katon • Haisekishou is a Ninjutsu technique utilizing the Fire Element. After forming the needed handseals, Rai will expel an ash from his mouth. This large cloud begin to envelope his foe and when Rai clicks his teeth, the cloud will ignite in an explosion. Housenka no Jutsu - Mythical Fire Phoenix Technique: Katon • Housenka no Jutsu is a Ninjutsu technique utilizing the Fire Element. The ninja does the necessary hand seals and then emits a series of small fire balls. The ninja can also hurl a projectile which is covered in these same flames. To the opponent the attack appears to be only the balls of flame, they do not see the hidden threat within the flames. Meaning that even if the flames are put out, the projectiles still converge on the target. The flames can be used to cover different projectiles like shuriken or kunai. Karyuudan - Fire Dragon Projectile: Katon • Karyuudan is a Ninjutsu technique utilizing the Fire Element. The ninja will do the necessary hand seals and create mud projectiles using the Doryuudan technique. The ninja will then blow a large flame to ignite the mud projectilesKaryuu Endan - Fire Dragon Flame Projectile: Katon • Karyuu Endan is a Ninjutsu technique utilizing the Fire Element. The ninja does a string of hand seals and the proceeds to blow a large jet of fire from their mouth.
RP Challenge: (Challenge 6- Romance) “How could I? It’s amazing how you could ask such a thing.” He replied arrogantly, but looking unusually calm. Like his cousin he had a quick temper but was being very gentle despite his usual grumpiness. Her tears were moving though. They were one of the beautiful things a human could do that moved him. Weakness? Maybe, but who cared, eh? “If you want to throw up…don’t get any on me? Ne…”He added, adding insult to injury. None the less he continued watching his now, ex-girlfriend.
He had known it wouldn’t last, he had told her such. But apparently she hadn’t believed him. “I told you before. Love doesn’t last. Hates the only thing that keeps the world turning. You know..” He flinched a bit and sighed a bit. How he hated being called that…”As you wish.”

Name (& Meaning): Nakajima (Center of the Island) Izumi (Spring of Water) Age: 16 Country & Affiliation: Takigakure/Waterfall Rank: Chuunin Chakra Alignment: Water Special Jutsu Ability: Taijutsu. Physical Description/Picture:  Background: Izumi was born of two ninjutsu water specialists in hidden Waterfall village. It came to a surprise to both of her parents when they found out she was only able to use a tiny amount of chakra and only had one chakra alignment being water. It was hard for her in school, not being able to make a clone as easily as the other students. However she worked harder, with help from her mother who loved her no matter what. Her father wishes she would excel in ninjutsu, but after she became a chuunin and showed her skills in the Taijutsu area he was proud of her finally. She’s never really had a first boyfriend, except the pretty boy of the village who was well, very talented in ninjutsu. She initially liked him because of how much he accepted her despite the others, but found herself hurting when she was told she wasn’t enough. That he wanted an equal and she could never be such. So she is setting out to prove him wrong, and become an anbu. Jutsu List: Crouching Tiger Style: She specializes in the crouching tiger style, which is a taijutsu style where the user wheres gloves with long knives are attached to them. She generally is in a “crouched” postion, making it easier to swipe at her targets.
Drunken Style: Where Izumi gets drunk during a fight and her movements become unpredictable and deadly.
Chakra Punch: Same thing as Sakura’s but she sends it into her claws during crouching tiger.
Water Clone: A water clone of herself. RP Challenge: Challenge 5-Social
10,000 Ryou? Oh hell yes! There was no way Izumi could pass this opportunity up! None, she had to impress the ninja world! Not only that, but Lee, and more importantly the man she was once in love with. The prodigy of the village, and the one who considered her underneath him, and not his equal. She’d show him. She’d show them all! As her amber eyes stared at the post, she could see herself in Tsunade’s place on the next one, grinning widely with a peace sign held up. That would be...so fabulous! It would defiantly be a small step, scratch that, a big step towards her goal.

Response to M’s Challenge character.
Name (& Meaning): Noboru [Ascend, Rise, Lift, something to this nature.] Torio [Bird’s tail] Age: 13 Country & Affiliation: Yukigakure / In question Rank: Unofficial Genin Chakra Alignment: Currently Unkown [ Wind, once he figures it out.] Special Jutsu Ability: Multiple Penguin Summons Physical Description/Picture: I do not have a picture to go with this. I don’t even know where to find something similar. I have no artistic talent so I can’t create one of my own, but hopefully that won’t be a problem.
Torio’s got short, spiky, and somewhat messy blue hair, the cut is similar to the one Kiba wears. He owns no headband since he is not an official ninja as of yet. As most from the snow village he adorns thick clothing. The outermost layer consists of a tick off-white jacket. The hood however, is light brown in color and made of animal skin. He wears a tied belt of the same material around his waist on the outside of his clothing. The collar and hood of the jacket is trimmed in pristine white rabbit fur. There is a decorative thick black stripe that trails down the entire length of the sleeves and vertically across the chest. He also wears black fingerless gloves, and had bandages wrapped tightly around his wrists in order to keep snow from entering the jacket or gloves. Underneath he wears a thinner gray long sleeve shirt, and below that the typical fishnet attire found in the Naruto universe. His pants are simply black, minus the Kunai holster. He carries a draw brow drawstring bag, which contains the few scrolls and hand crafted weapons he owns.
Background: Torio’s world is incredibly different when compared to the world of most young hopeful ninja. He was born to a small tribe that inhabits the icy mountains of the snow village. [This life style is similar to that of early Native Americans. ] The tribe serves as look outs for the Yukigakure, reporting any strange occurrences or news back to them in return for being allowed to stay on their land and keep to their own ways.
Although they are aware of the world around them, the great nations, Shinobi, and the art of Ninjutsu most of them are incapable of performing such acts and thus give it little thought. So they live their lives as normal people. No missons. No ninja. Nothing. Despite this there has always been one family amongst the tribe with the gift to perform such arts, The Noboru family.
Although it is a technique they must practice, and require a little guidance from their elders on; each member seems born with just enough natural talent to summon great birds such as hawks and eagles. With these animals they have brought great pride and prosperity to the tribe. Through hunting and seeking out new shelter and foreseeing danger from the skies. However with no means of improving their skills they often lack the know-how of battle like a true shinobi, or any of the other ninja arts.
Torio was expected to carry on this tradition by having his own birds scout the skies for his generation. There was great excitement the day he was to summon his first bird, but when he summoned the flightless cumbersome penguin the tribe was unimpressed. Torio was blessed with the gift of a caring family, as his parents choose to take great pride in him all the same. As a result and through their encouragement he continued to practice and develop his summoning skills and has since become very fond of the birds.
As he grew older he began to journey closer to the snow village. After witnessing a friendly spar between two Yukinin he became obsessed with the diversity of their techniques. He’d been previously unaware that chakra, and Jutsu could be used for anything more than summoning. Approaching the two older boys he asked if they could teach him a few of their tricks. They agreed and for a few weeks Torio was given a brief introduction to the world of a shinobi.
Unfortunately it was strictly forbidden for the tribe members to be educated as one of the villagers, for they feared that if the tribe ever honed their skills they may pose as an inside threat to the village. Once the village higher ups caught wind of the private lessons, they sent Jonins to the Tribe’s elder.
After a heated argument the snow village called for a civil war on the tribe when the elder refused to have Tario punished or executed for breaking the peace agreement between the tribe and village.
Having been present at the war declaration Tario declared that he would leave the tribe that day and even leave Yukigakure's land as a whole in order to keep the peace. After agreeing to let a group of Yukinin escort him to see that he kept his word, Tario said his goodbyes and vowed to bring honor to their tribe and prove his worth. By becoming a top ranking Shinobi of one of the main villages, then by earning the villages trust and respect asking for their political assistance in allowing him to at least visit the family he left behind.
After being dumped outside Konoha, and having learned a little bit about the five great nations; Tario had set his sights on Sunagakure. Even with the severe climate change, he found himself moved by the quoted words of the Kazekage about making a path for oneself. Despite his inexperience he’s sure he’ll make it through with flying colors and it’s this overconfidence that often lands him in such predicaments as the one he’s in now.
Jutsu List: This is very limited, but likely to expand since he’s had only limited training by unqualified Genin.
Kinobori no Waza/ Art of tree [surface] Climbing Allows user to walk up vertical surfaces and with more chakra control to be able to walk across the surface of water.
Shunshin no Jutsu / Body flicker Jutsu Allows for quick movement unseen by the eye for a quick strike or escape.
Henge no Jutsu / Transformation Jutsu Allows user to change their appearance to another person, animal, or object.
Kawarimi no Jutsu / Substitution Jutsu Allows user to replace themselves with another object or person to prevent damage or act as a sneak attack.
Yuki Bunshin no Jutsu/ Snow clone Jutsu Just like any other cloning jutsu, only with Snow.
Kuchiyose: Pengin Yuki kokyuu / Summoning: Penguin Snow Respiration This summon works like any other, first blood must be drawn followed by the proper handseals. After place his hand on the ground Torio calls forth a thick plate shaped object made entirely of hard stone. On the back it is completely smooth stone, but on the front an emperor penguin is carved into the stone with it’s mouth open.
From the gaping mouth snow is released and pushed out by strong winds, for as long as it’s kept out or until it is destroyed. Throughout the battle the object uses it’s shape to it’s advantage as it rolls around the battle field following it’s target and circling them in an attempt to keep them trapped in the makeshift snow storm or supply cover and an advantage for Torio.
Kuchiyose: Guru-pingu bouei / Grouping Defense This one is modeled after the way male emperor penguins brave the cold while watching their eggs.
Once again this is a normal Summon, it draws out three armored penguins that huddle tightly around Torio and defend him from an attack with admirable endurance. This also grants Torio the chance to prepare his own strike while hidden from enemy view.
Kuchiyose: Mokumoku shiroi mure / Silent white flock This technique combined with Pengin yuki Kokyuu has the potential to be Torio’s greatest assault. However at the moment he is too under skilled to use both at the same time and have guaranteed efficiency of both.
This summon calls out five completely white penguins. Even their eyes are an ivory color. This odd coloring is used to their advantage to keep them almost completely unseen in a strong snowstorm. This also becomes a disadvantage if they are anywhere else, since they will stick out like a sore thumb with such a bright color. All five possess unique weapons. Just like their summoner they are undereducated and lack the ability to use them at their current level, so they rely on blunt physical attacks instead.
RP Challenge: Response to challenge 5
An irritated groan passed by the young Genin’s lips. His usually spiky hair now hung over his face, soaking wet as a result of one of his desperate attempts to cool off by pouring a bottle over water over his head. It’d done him little good as he now displayed to anyone that may have passed by the pathetic looking boy. He walked slowly, hunched over in such a way that if his arms had been just a bit longer he’d have been dragging them along beside him on the ground. His now useless thick jacket was tied around his waist, and his thinner long sleeve shirt tucked into his bag with one sleeve hung out of the unclosed opening.
“It’s so hot.” He choked as he lifted his eyes to the skies above the large village. He’d been so excited when he first arrived; the place was huge and booming with life. Now it was the equivalent to hell, at least temperature wise. Giving the burning skies and angry glare he stopped in the middle of the street before slapping an annoyed expression on and grabbing fist fulls of his damp hair.
Not even remotely caring to how his outcry would be taken he lifted his head and screamed out to any leafnin that would bother responding. “How the hell do you people live!?”
Letting his head rapidly fall back down and his arms fall to his sides he looked around wildly. Only to find strange stares as an answer, as Konoha’s resident went about their day. Commenting on the strange visitor breaking down in their streets. He huffed a sigh in response and hung his head, what kind of answer had he expect from them anyway? Still, you’d think one of these tree huggers would do something more than edge away and ignore the comment.
The sound of paper blowing in the wind made the daunted traveler look up once more. Spotting the challenge to any female willing to take on the challenge. “A chick fight?” He blinked and stood straight before walking towards the poster and pulling it off it’s post. He let his eyes fall over the paper as he read it, a grin spread wider and wider over his face as he did so.
“Air conditioned viewing.” He read aloud triumphantly before summing the competition up in his own words with new found energy the sun had yet to steal from him. “Watch a bunch of girls jump around fighting each other while you do nothing but stay cool. HAH! I got my answer! That really is living!”
Hope that doesn’t disappoint. Let me know how it is, I’m curious to see if it correctly fits the personality guidelines you have me. 3nodding

Name (& Meaning): Hedoromukku Norimaru Age: 14 Country & Affiliation: Takigakure Rank: Genin Chakra Alignment: Water Special Jutsu Ability: Slime/Muk Formation Physical Description/Picture: Background: Norimaru comes from one of the smaller, less popular clans of Takigakure. Their clan has the ability to form water chakra into semi-solid slime like substances of varying degrees and combinations of corossive/sticky/dense/fluidic. The ability lacks the style and obvious uses that one typically hopes to find in a Kekkei Genkai, and it requires a special kind of thinking to utilize it effectively in combat. So while the Hedoromukku clan has a long history, it has rarely been particularly influencial outside of it's own country. It is said, however, that the clan produces only loyal children and that their friendship should be valued... so they are often compared to the Akimichi clan of Konohagakure. The clan has only in it's history ever produced one legitimate prodigy. Unfortunately for Norimaru, that was Norimaru's elder brother Tetsumaru. Norimaru could be flatteringly referred to as "adequate". Where Tetsumaru's slime formations tend to be a beautiful bioluminescent crimson, Norimaru's tend to end up varying shades of pink. Barely skating by in school, Norimaru graduated a year later than most students, after being sent back to the academy when he failed under his first Jounin commander. Even when he was finally placed on a team, he gained a reputation of being somewhat of a screw-up because he had yet to fully master his bloodline. This is a matter he works hard to remedy every day. Hailing from the village of heroes it would be easy to assume that Norimaru has some dream of greatness, but his goals are actually far simpler than becoming the village Satoosa. Norimaru finds comfort in being needed. It would be more accurate to describe him as a hopeless romantic than as an ambitious youth. Socially, Norimaru is typically very quiet and shy and takes a very long time to actively open up to others. Even when he does, his timid nature tends to overcome any daring side he might have and he takes very few social risks. Typically, Norimaru would say that he would rather not go to a social gathering than risk doing or saying something that would make anyone think less of him. He can usually be riled into some activities, however, by comparison to his older brother. His admiration for his brother is deep and great, but he secretly believes that it is his destiny to surpass him. In combat, Norimaru has learned to make fairly adequate use of his bloodline. Originally the clan relied almost exclusively on the strategy of using their slime to stick one or several foes to a single area and then simply bringing them down with the family weapon of choice, the scythe. In recent generations, and particularly amongst Norimaru and Tetsumaru, this has been expanded to finding new ways of using the ability. Norimaru tends to be defensive and supplimentary, using his ability to form walls or trampalines or ropes mostly. While hardly the most effective ninja in single combat, in a unit he can be very beneficial to have on one's side. Jutsu List: Numeribushin no Jutsu-The forming of a Bushin out of slime. If connected with by an enemy, the clone will revert to slime which sticks to the enemy and slowly solidifies into a muddy goop that can make movement difficult the longer it remains on the body. Though these clones can perform some jutsu like a Kagebushin, the jutsu would be limited to a technique involving the family slime. Sanbushin no Jutsu-Similar to the above, but rather than being sticky, the clone will be acidic when impacted. Though these clones can perform some jutsu like a Kagebushin, the jutsu would be limited to a technique involving the family slime. Suiton: Numerikansei no Jutsu-The original clan jutsu. The laying of a surface of slime that will be extremly thick and sticky, pulling an enemy into it as it solidifies. It can also be laid down as foundation to mold into a Numerirou technique. Skilled ninja know how to apply scents and genjutsu fields to the slime field they lay down. Norimaru is still learning this ability. Suiton: Numeridama-Similar to the Teppoudama jutsu, but used with a sticky slime. The ninja forms the seals and spits a ball of slime at their opponent in hopes of sticking them to a surface. The attack flies with great pressure and is usually capable of knocking back an individual of fairly signifigant weight. Suiton: Numeritoranporin-The ninja forms a stretch of slime against several surfaces that has a great elasticity. The wall can then be used to amplify movement, or to deflect solid attacks. If made dense enough it can even send kunai and shuriken back. Many jutsu can also be defended against, however, the ability has no offensive capabilities that do not expose the ninja. For example, the ninja may bounce off of the surface to assist in taijutsu or to gain altitude for a ninjutsu, but they would no longer have the defense of the wall of slime. Suiton: Numerisan no Jutsu-An amount of slime is formed in the mouth and then placed in the palms. In the palms it can be charged with chakra in such a way as to become acidic and very corrosive to anyone outside of the Hedoromukku family. The slime can then be thrown as accurately as the ninja would be able to throw a shuriken or ball of the same size. Suiton: Numerirou no Jutsu-Similar to the water prison jutsu, but using a sphere of thick ball that can then be attached to a surface. Unlike Suirou, however, the ninja does not need to maintain physical contact to maintain the jutsu. The slime can be given several effects depending on the skill of the ninja. It can be made acidic, or it can be made to eat away at it's captive's chakra. Norimaru has only masterred being able to combine it with genjutsu to make those caught inside it more fatigued and occasionally fall asleep. Suiton: Numerioushi no Jutsu-The ninja makes several ball of slime and imbues them with enough chakra to act on their own, creating a small army of classic RPG monsters. A skilled ninja can infuse them with other elements to allow them to perform simple jutsu. Norimaru can imbue them only with Suiton, as it is the only element he is familiar with manipulating. ~ Numerioushi Shimu no Jutsu-This jutsu must be performed after the Numerioushi. It gives the slimes the ability to consume chakra directed at them, making them able to eat jutsu. ~ Numeriou Betbeton-Combining several, or all the slimes into one greater slime, the "Slime King Betbeton". The Slime King has the ability to consume chakra, and secrete acids as well as act independantly of it's creator like a Kagebushin. This could be considerred the Hedoromukku family's ultimate technique as once produced it requires powerful jutsu to actually cause damage to Betbeton itself. However, it it can not maintain itself for long outside of it's creator's chakra field, so if the creator leaves the area or is renderred unconcious Betbeton will eventually dissolve on it's own.

Name (& Meaning): Hedoromukku Tetsumaru Age: 19 Country & Affiliation: Takigakure Rank: Jounin Chakra Alignment: Water & Fire Special Jutsu Ability: Slime/Muk Formation Physical Description/Picture: Background: Tetsumaru comes from one of the smaller, less popular clans of Takigakure. Their clan has the ability to form water chakra into semi-solid slime like substances of varying degrees and combinations of corossive/sticky/dense/fluidic. The ability lacks the style and obvious uses that one typically hopes to find in a Kekkei Genkai, and it requires a special kind of thinking to utilize it effectively in combat. So while the Hedoromukku clan has a long history, it has rarely been particularly influencial outside of it's own country. It is said, however, that the clan produces only loyal children and that their friendship should be valued... so they are often compared to the Akimichi clan of Konohagakure. More than once, Tetsumaru has been described as the pride of their clan. His mastery of their clan's ability as well as ninjutsu in general is a source of pride. Having graduated from the academy at the age of ten, and become a chuunin at twelve, he became a valuable asset to his village early in his life. He went on to complete a record number of S-ranked missions for his village. It would be easy to think that having such accomplishments under his belt would have gone to Tetsumaru's head... and, for the most part, you would be right to do so. While not necessarily cold or mean by any stretch, Tetsumaru is somewhat cocky and proud. He's known somewhat for his rockstar style image. Socially, Tetsumaru is somewhat aloof and often comes across as unreachable. The image he projects keeps a lot of people at bay, and it would seem that this is how he likes it. He rarely keeps close friendships, somewhat defying the reputation for which his family is known. Those who do know him closely, however, will still attest to his loyalty even if it does come at the price of putting up with his showmanship. His energetic rocker's lifestyle is a shield that hides the depression that set early in his life when his mother died. This makes him especially likely to open up to nurturing women in his life, but he becomes almost ruthlessly cold to them if he percieves that they have betrayed him. In combat Tetsumaru is as adept as one would expect of a Jounin. Though he may not be on the level of legends like Uchiha Itachi or Hatake Kakashi, his skill with his family's bloodline is unsurpassed. He's creative and quick thinking, but his desire to be showy often borders on a deathwish. Still, he should not be underestimated. When combined with a complimentary and equally adaptive team, he is capable of competing with even the top most tiers in the bingobook. Jutsu List: Numeribushin no Jutsu-The forming of a Bushin out of slime. If connected with by an enemy, the clone will revert to slime which sticks to the enemy and slowly solidifies into a muddy goop that can make movement difficult the longer it remains on the body. Though these clones can perform some jutsu like a Kagebushin, the jutsu would be limited to a technique involving the family slime. Sanbushin no Jutsu- Similar to the above, but rather than being sticky, the clone will be acidic when impacted. Though these clones can perform some jutsu like a Kagebushin, the jutsu would be limited to a technique involving the family slime. Suiton: Numerikansei no Jutsu-The original clan jutsu. The laying of a surface of slime that will be extremly thick and sticky, pulling an enemy into it as it solidifies. It can also be laid down as foundation to mold into a Numerirou technique. Skilled ninja know how to apply scents and genjutsu fields to the slime field they lay down. Suiton: Numeridama-Similar to the Teppoudama jutsu, but used with a sticky slime. The ninja forms the seals and spits a ball of slime at their opponent in hopes of sticking them to a surface. The attack flies with great pressure and is usually capable of knocking back an individual of fairly signifigant weight. Suiton: Numerikumonosu-Tetsumaru forms a spider-web like shape that is similar to the clan's standard Numoritoranporin in function. However, the formed surface can manifest itself in the air without connecting it's corners to any other surface (though this can only be held for a brief moment before the substance would dissolve), as well as being used to catch unsuspecting ninja like a net that expands when it makes contact with unfamiliar chakra. It can still be bounded off of and walked on casually by Tetsumaru. Suiton: Numerisan no Jutsu-An amount of slime is formed in the mouth and then placed in the palms. In the palms it can be charged with chakra in such a way as to become acidic and very corrosive to anyone outside of the Hedoromukku family. The slime can then be thrown as accurately as the ninja would be able to throw a shuriken or ball of the same size. Suiton: Numerirou no Jutsu-Similar to the water prison jutsu, but using a sphere of thick ball that can then be attached to a surface. Unlike Suirou, however, the ninja does not need to maintain physical contact to maintain the jutsu. The slime can be given several effects depending on the skill of the ninja. It can be made acidic, or it can be made to eat away at it's captive's chakra, or lock a ninja in a dreamlike genjutsu while they are stuck inside the ball. Katon: Goukakyuu no Jutsu-The ninja exhales a stream of fire which forms as a sphere a few meters from their body. Katon: Goukakyuu Numeri no Jutsu-The ninja combines this with the previous technique. From inside the sphere of flame a large slime will be concealed. The enemy may believe the sphere to simply be burning from the jutsu, but the slime will continue it's burning as a distraction. The user may then move from that location while concealed by the flames. The slame can also move or transfer the flames by spitting them from itself, making it possible to redirect flames in mid-jutsu. Katon: Zukkoku no Jutsu-The ninja spits a fair sized flame to the ground that races along the ground chasing the target. Tetsumaru may combine this with Numerioushi to allow other slimes to add their own power to the flame to keep it moving longer. Alternatively, if he has already used Numerioushi Shimu, then the slimes will be energized by consuming part of the flame as it passes them and onto the next slime. In this way he can continuously power up his slime army. Suiton: Numerioushi no Jutsu-The ninja makes several ball of slime and imbues them with enough chakra to act on their own, creating a small army of classic RPG monsters. A skilled ninja can infuse them with other elements to allow them to perform simple jutsu. Norimaru can imbue them only with Suiton, as it is the only element he is familiar with manipulating. Katon: Numerioushi no Jutsu-The same as the above, but manifesting them with Katon chakra instead of Suiton. Slimes made from Katon chakra are extremely hot to the touch. ~ Numerioushi Shimu no Jutsu-This jutsu must be performed after the Numerioushi. It gives the slimes the ability to consume chakra directed at them, making them able to eat jutsu. ~ Numeriou Betbeton-Combining several, or all the slimes into one greater slime, the "Slime King Betbeton". The Slime King has the ability to consume chakra, and secrete acids as well as act independantly of it's creator like a Kagebushin. This could be considerred the Hedoromukku family's ultimate technique as once produced it requires powerful jutsu to actually cause damage to Betbeton itself. However, it it can not maintain itself for long outside of it's creator's chakra field, so if the creator leaves the area or is renderred unconcious Betbeton will eventually dissolve on it's own.

Name (& Meaning): Pikkoro Dende Age: 36 Country & Affiliation: Iwagakure Rank: Jounin Chakra Alignment: Wind / Lightning Special Jutsu Ability:Kikkei Genkai - Namekijin. The Pikkoro family bloodline that is passed down only to one son per generation. The bloodline alters the body signifigantly resulting in a strange physical appearance and the ability to regenerate limbs. The ability it is most prized for, however, is the antanae which can greatly sense chakra as well as sense it's type in combat, allowing for better preperation of defenses. Physical Description/Picture: Background: While not as reknown and covetted as the legendary eye bloodlines like the Sharingan or Rin'nengan, the Namekijin line is feared in it's own right. The clan was founded by Pikkoro Daimao, the first known master of the Namekijin bloodline. Since then it has only been passed to one son per generation, from Daimao to Kattatsu, from Kattatsu to Kargo, to Tsuno to Neiru and finally to Dende himself. Girls born into the family do not seem to possess the deformations that come with the bloodline, and the family has a rule against having any further children after the birth of the first son so it is unknown if the ability could be passed on to more than one child. While many of the Pikkoro clan have decided to ride on the legacy built by their abilities, Dende is probably best known for his building upon them while also expanding beyond them so as not to be forced into relying on them. This has given Dende a reputation around Iwagakure. While perhaps not as feared as the likes of Zaraki Kenpachi, or Seiojino Bejita, Dende is no less respected for his talent and efficiency. As expected from a member of his clan, Dende graduated the ninja academy very young and was already a Jounin by the age of fourteen. All his life he has exceeded expectations in every area but patience, a matter he was forced to self-remedy when he was given three children to lead on missions. Making matters worse, the three all come from the famous Vegetable houses that Dende himself so despised for what he viewed as easy access to power. Perhaps given any other set of teens he might not have been so hard on them in early stages of their training and on early missions, but it's unlikely. Before the three, Dende was known to look for any excuse to fail a group of Genin so as to be able to continue on harder missions on his own. However, the three he currently leads always manage to frustratingly inch by under the level of satisfactory, and admittedly he has grown fond and protective of them over the last two years. Socially most people describe Dende as "scary" but few really get to know him because of the monstrous appearance that comes with his bloodline. Dende actually embodies all the best attributes of the clan's lineage, he is proud and well spoken, educated and polite. Although he is also somewhat socially akward and shy around women, and even at 36 has never had a lasting relationship. With his friends, what few of them there are, he is known as somewhat reticent and quiet. He is often overly polite. He's known for cutting out of social interactions quickly when people stop noticing him, but he is also known for only being provoked by noble reasons. Of course, disrespect and vengeance can be considerred noble in Iwagakure... In combat, Dende is more patient than in any other aspect of life. Skilled in most fields of combat, his intelligence is where he really shines in a fight. Dende will often think moves ahead of his enemy and use combination attacks to guide them into traps. The awareness of his enemy that is granted to him by his bloodline is greatly advantageous, granting him an ability to prepare defenses ahead of time by sensing the type of chakra being used against him. A favorite strategy of his team's is for him to go in alone and for Goten to use Shunkanido no Jutsu to teleport the rest of them to Dende's position, surprising an enemy with the sudden appearance of reinforcements. Jutsu List: Namekianbushin no Jutsu-A clone technique unique to the Pikkoro bloodline. The ninja will sacrfice a portion of his own body that will grow into a full clone by absorbing the properties of whatever the sacrifice touches when the technique is activated (ie if it is on a rock, the clone will be like stone or if it's in the water it will be fluid, etc). The clone has a portion of the ninja's chakra and can fight on it's own for a while but a sufficient blow or simply expending the chakra will also eliminate the clone. Pokopen no Jutsu-An ability linked to Dende's bloodline. Dende can transfer all his chakra and mental focus into an egg created from his chakra inside his body. By then spitting the egg out, his physical form effectively becomes a bushin and his real body is hatched from the egg. This ability is usually used to escape an enemy or attack. Chobakuretsumaha-A forbidden jutsu because of it's suicide nature. Huge amounts of chakra are gatherred up for a suicide attack that causes a spherical explosion when executed. Dende will use this ability through one of his Namekianbushin so as to avoid using a suicide attack himself. Doing so signifigantly weakens the attack from it's heavy potential, but is still roughly the equivilant of one of Deidara's C2 explosions. Kaioken no Yari-The Method of the World King's Attack. This ability allows a ninja to expel the necessary chakra for a technique before forming it into a jutsu. This can greatly increase the power of an attack, or can be used to cut the time to perform an attack. While the ninja will seem to be temporarily much more powerful, the reserve will be expended on the next jutsu performed. Alternatively, the energy might be held for a few Taijutsu strikes, but the chakra will discipate if not used after a few seconds. Chakra Threads-Similar to the method used by sunanin to control puppets, Dende uses chakra threads to guide the movements of chakra and kunai in the air after throwing them. He can also use these chakra threads to activate tags attached to these kunai and shuriken from a distance rather than having to activate them before throwing. Shousen no Jutsu-The ability to use one's own chakra to heal the wounds of others. Dende is fairly skilled at this apility for a combat oriented ninja. Tsuibi Tenketsu-Dende will put a small touch of his own chakra on or into an enemy to make tracking extremely easy. This will also serve as the beacon that summons some of Dende's other techniques. Tsuibi Shiruken-A shuriken, usually with an explosive tag, is charged with chakra and thrown at an enemy who has already been given a Tenketsu. The shuriken will then home in on the ninja in the most direct path between it and the ninja. The shuriken, however, will always be moving towards the ninja and will only curve when they do. Therfore if a ninja can get another object in between themselves and the weapon the shuriken will impact that object instead. Tsuihidan (Fuuton)-Raw chakra, similar to a very small rasengan, is released from the ninja's hand and follows it's target like the Tsuibi Shuriken. This is an alternative the Pikkoro family developped for situations when they may run out of shuriken or need their shuriken available for another purpose. The impact is more like a a punch or blunt force, rather than a piercing attack like a shuriken. Dende can mix this with Fuuton type chakra to create a more powerful variation of the ability. Raiton: Gekiretsukodan no Jutsu-A ball of lightning chakra formed that will burst when it impacts an enemy. When it bursts, it will arch in stunning strikes of lightning towards any other ninja currently marked with one of Dende's Tsuibi marks. Raiton: Shogekiha no Jutsu-After forming the handseals, Dende sends forth a chakra thread toward a target which then explodes with a shockwave of lightning chakra. The blast can stun enemies caught in it's range. Because chakra threads are invisible to the normal human eye, the technique often looks to come from nowhere to most ninja. Fuuton: Renzoku no Jutsu-After performing the necessary handseals, Dende will begin slapping his hands forward sending powerful shots of wind-pressure at his target like a machine gun. The more shots expelled the more chakra the technique will exhaust. Often Shuriken will be used with this attack to increase the threat. Fuuton: Kuchikarakikoha-Handseals are formed and a violent pulse of wind chakra is exhaled from the mouth. This is a more violent, but easier to see (and thus arguably avoid) version of the Daitoppa technique. Kakusanyudokodan (Raiton or Fuuton)-Dende will hurl hundreds of kunai and shuriken apparently at random around an enemy. When the enemy is completely surrounded on all sides by his weapons he will draw in on them with the chakra threads, causing a sphere of kunai and shuriken to close around his enemy. Often the shuriken will then have explosive or poison tags activated, or be charged with Raiton or Fuuton type chakras to add that respective element to the attack. (Fuuton or Raiton) Tsunoheki no Jutsu-Dende charges elemental chakra through his the antaena on his head which forms a barrier. In it's Raiton version, this technique is an electrical swirl around his body, while the Fuuton version is lashing blades of wind. Sai Sei-An ability linked to Dende's bloodline, members of his family are able to regenerate limbs or didgets should they be lost in battle. Because this requires chakra and focus to initiate, it is listed as a technique. The chakra system must be at least mostly in tact to use this ability. Likewise, if there is signifigant or hindering damage that has been caused to the heart or brain, this ability can not regenerate. Obviously the ninja must also be concious. Mafuba no Jutsu-The ability to seal a target's chakra onto a tag. Because knowledge of one's chakra type is required to perform this jutsu, it is usually only useful against an enemy one has prepared to fight. The Pikkoro family, however, has overcome this difficulty through their bloodline ability which allows them to detect an enemy's chakra type. However, physical contact and placement of a seal-tag must still be performed. Though the target is not able to destroy the tag once it is placed, any ally they have around them could do so in theory, and if the tag is destroyed all sealed chakra is restored. Anjutsu: Raiton/Fuuton: Makankosappo-An extremely effective assassination art passed down in the Pikkoro family. Dende forms the seals and gathers both wind and lightning chakra in his hand and releases it as a straight shot towards an enemy. This attack takes a moment to prepare, but travels extremely quickly after released. The attack is composed of a straight shot of lightning chakra with a swirling shot of wind chakra that corkscrews around the center beam. These two chakra are the most effective at piercing defense and work together to pierce through a target. This attack is designed with assassination in mind, and has no other use except against a living target. Majin Seal: KobuuOne of the three Cursed Majin Seals passed down in Iwagakure. The seal Kobuu is passed down through the Pikkoro family, because their normally peaceful and calm approach was thought to balance out the desire to use the most savage and destructive of the three Majin Seals. Unlike other cursed seals which act as a secondary source of chakra for a ninja, the Majin seal absorbs chakra and physical energy that are released in combat and stores it much like Tsunade's seal stores chakra. The chakra can then be used to give the ninja benefits similar to a cursed seal, however, if overused the Majin that the seal is designed to contain can take over the body of the ninja using the seal. Level 1In this stage it acts much like a level 1 cursed seal seen on many Otogakure ninja. The body bulges with veins as chakra flow is increased artificially through the seal, muscles also swell into a highly tensed state. The user is still primarily in control of their own actions, though agression is likely increased by the influence of the seal. Level 2The eyes grow inverted in their coloring (black eyes and pupil's with a negative of the ninja's normal eye color for the iris) and pink marks begin to spread over the body. Where the pink marks cover enough skin, holes will often appear in the body itself, as well. In this form, Dende can extend his arms, and move his body as if it were made of taffy and contained no internal organs. Strength, speed, and chakra are also greatly increased. However, over use of this form will result in Level 3... Level 3Dende's body is completely taken over by the entity the Majin seal is designed to hold. In Dende's case, this is Kobuu, the small childlike Majin that was the most savage and destructive of the 3 Majin. In this form, Dende has no control over the actions of the powerful Majin, but Kobuu's full power is released along with having absorbed all of Dende's power, and the ability to throw this chakra about in a raw state without forming jutsu (similar to the way a Bijuu simply releases waves and bursts of chakra). The body becomes like gum and can reform itself if cut or even shredded. A Majin, however, can not harm anyone else who bears the Majin Seal, nor can the 3 of them fight amongst themselves. If sufficient chakra is drained, or a chakra seal applied, Kobuu can be driven back and Dende allowed to regain control over his own body. After being pulled from this form, the body requires a weak of recovery, and the seal can not be fully activated again until it has absorbed enough chakra. RP Challenge:

Name (& Meaning): Son Goten Age: 14 Country & Affiliation: Earth / Iwagakure no Sato Rank: Genin Chakra Alignment: Earth (and training himself in Water Alignment) Special Jutsu Ability: N/A Physical Description/Picture: Background: Goten is the son and younger brother of two of Iwagakure's most famous ninja. Son Goku, his father, was most famous internationally for his fight with Namikaze Minato during the last Shinobi Wars. Though Minato was able to defeat 50 shinobi on his own, he was only able to fight Son Goku to a standstill. The fight was left unresolved when Minato left in the middle of it to save Kakashi and Rin. Goten's brother Gohan is often called the Genius of Iwagakure, for his ability to quickly analyze an enemy and figure out the quickest and most efficient way to handle them. Being the youngest, Goten is often compared to either of them a fact which seems to mean little to Goten. As much as he admires his brother and father, the best way to illicit Goten into any action seems to be saying that Tenku could do it better. The two families of Seiojino and Son have a long history of rivalries. This began generations ago when a great ninja named Paragu engineered the Burori pepper as well as developped a way of using it without fatally damaging one's body. However, he had no son to pass this secret art to, rather he had two daughters. His elder daughter married Seiojino Bejita the grandfather of the current Tsuchikage. His younger daughter married Son Gohan, the only deciple of the legendary Genbu Roshi. When Paragu chose Gohan to inherit the art because he had trained with Genbu Roshi, Bejita was enraged and challenged that just having trained under Genbu Roshi did not mean Gohan was more qualified. The fight ended in a draw when Paragu declaired that each would inherit the art. Since then, the two families have been mostly bitter rivals. One could not tell that by watching Goten, however. Goten is rarely seen apart from his best friend Seiojino Tenku, and after a few reassignments (one girl had even had the nerve to kick him in the groin) the two ended up on a team together. This was the first time in history that a Seiojino and a Son were on the same squad. Though, it also meant that Goten had to put up with his scary cousin Pan and the often nightmarish training of their Jounin. Like many families, the Son family has a Branch House and a Main House. Deciding who will lead the main house is decreed by which son born into it is the strongest. That son is then taught the art of Kamehameha and Genkidama, the two secret techniques passed down through the son family from Genbu Roshi. The honor fell upon Goten's brother Gohan, however tradition was completely wounded when Goten demonstrated that he could perform Kamehameha as well after having seen Gohan and Goku perform it in a sparring match. Greatly pleased, Goten's father then instructed him in the Genkidama technique and completley broke the age old traditions. The revelation, though unknown to Goten, was part of the dynamic that has moved his house to the tentative disolving of aspects like "branch" and "main"... Socially Goten is a little childish and naive, he'll often say the first thing that comes to mind and has a reputation for pretty stupid questions. The place he seems to stand out more than the rest of his family is in dealings with girls, Goten has a confidence and charm that makes him good at talking to them. However, he has a tendancy to grow bored with activities quickly and he usually doesn't end up in very serious relationships. With friends is another matter. Goten is known for being curious and inquisitive, as well as immensely loyal. He is known for a somewhat bad sense of humor, he might not get a joke for minutes or even hours, but will always be the first to laugh if somebody takes a pratfall. In combat, however, is where Goten really shines. Like his father, Goten has demonstrated an almost savant skill at being able to reproduce techniques after seeing them used. Though he usually confers the role of leader over to his friend Tenku, and prefers to be in a spot of following orders, Goten's ability to quickly analyze a jutsu or technique and figure out how it works after seeing it sometimes as little as one time has more than once been the key to their team's success. What has narrowly avoided costing them sometimes, however, has been Goten's often reckless tendancy to show what he can do. The phrase "a little goes a long way" is lost on Goten and he's known as a king of overkill... Jutsu List: Weapon: Nyoibo-A weapon handed down through the Son Family. The staff is very solid and has the ability to extend. It was created by Genbu Roshi after his fight against the Monkey King Enma. The staff is similar to a weaker version of the staff which Enma turns into. Family Secret: Senzu-A small bean like seed which, if dried properly, can be ingested to completely restore one's chakra as well as heal minor injuries and abrasions. A ninja can only digest one senzu per day, however, and attempts to go beyond that can severely damage their body. Family Secret: Burori PepperA golden colored pepper with stocks like broccoli at the top instead of a stem. The pepper must be dried and pickled by a specific process in order to be effective. When ingested it can increase one's chakra reserves exponentially as well as temporarily stimulate the muscles and nervous system of a body. However, without proper training the amount of chakra produced by the pepper can cause permanent damage and rupture the gates of the ninja that ingests it. Taijutsu Hasshuken-The ninja moves their arms so fast that it appears as if they have eight arms while striking. While only one hand is physical, the distraction of trying to figure out from which arm the attack is going to come can leave an enemy open to an attack from a different arm. Taiyodan no Jutsu-A technique developped to create a bright flash of light without the use of a flash-tag. The ninja creates chakra in their palms and then turns the palms outwards which are illuminated in a flash. The flash can blind an enemy temporarily, but has no other offensive uses. Kuchiyose no Jutsu - KintounThe ability to summon a cloud solid enough for him to ride on in the air. This allows members of the Son family to fly through the air in a way similar to what has been demonstrated by Deidara and Gaara. Mafuba no Jutsu-The ability to seal a target's chakra onto a tag. Because knowledge of one's chakra type is required to perform this jutsu, it is usually only useful against an enemy one has prepared to fight. The Pikkoro family, however, has overcome this difficulty through their bloodline ability which allows them to detect an enemy's chakra type. However, physical contact and placement of a seal-tag must still be performed. Though the target is not able to destroy the tag once it is placed, any ally they have around them could do so in theory, and if the tag is destroyed all sealed chakra is restored. Dende taught this to all 3 of his Genin in case the situation came up when Dende might become possessed by Majin Kobuu. Suiton: Kintoun no Amedan-Using Kintoun itself as a source of water, Goten will send heavy pounding rain down toward a target while Kintoun floats above them. Goten may or may not be riding the cloud while performing this jutsu. Suiton: Kokuun no Jutsu-Kintoun rains a slick flammable oil down on an enemy. Primarily this technique will be used to set up a fire attack from Tenku, but any flame can reasonably be used to ignite the oil. Suiton: Goten Shin Rogafufuken-Using water chakra to form a chain of water that follows and masks the movements of a taijutsu combo, the water will colide with the same points as a strike, but from a different angle. An attempt to deflect the Taijutsu strike can, then, leave the oponent open for the Ninjutsu strike. Goten isn't a master of this yet, and at the moment he can only perform a few strikes with the attack, however, he is the only ninja to perform the technique with water instead of wind. Doton: Kintoun no Ochiru-Goten turns Kintoun into a rock and lets the cloud crash into a target. After the impact, the cloud becomes a regular cloud once again. Doton: Kamikazeyuuyuu no ken-Goten will form the necessary seals and then blow through the sealed fingers. The chakra is formed through the earth chakra as a soft clay like clone of Goten. The clones, however, are a pasty white color and float over ghost-like tails rather than having legs and feet. The ghost-like clones then rush at enemies, attempting to latch onto them and explode. Doton: Ginga Donato no Jutsu-Goten forms a ring of chakra around an enemy that can bind them as long as Goten can maintain focus on the chakra needed to manifest the ability. Though the binding is solid and fairly tight, the technique is mostly defensive and would be difficult to use as an attack. Doton: Kienzan-Normally a shuriken is only a few inches in diameter, using the Kienzan technique, a solid aura is created around the shuriken to increase it's width and give the thrower more control over the flight path. While his father can make much larger disks, Goten can only make disks about the size of a frizbee. The downside to this technique is that the shuriken creates a breaking or concussive impact, as opposed to the pierce one expects of a shuriken. Genkidama-A Son Clan Main House technique. This technique consists of three parts, but if successful is a very potent move with an almost 100% KO rate. The ninja first gathers chakra in their palm in a manner similar to rasengan. The chakra must then make contact with a target ninja, where it will plant itself inside the enemy. The ninja then continues to focus on the chakra and cause it to draw their enemy's chakra into itself causing their chakra lines to collapse inside them. The first and second steps of this technique are incredibly difficult to pull off, as considerable focus is required for the first portion followed by intense accuracy and speed to successfully execute the second portion. The ninja is then left open while focussing the chakra necessary to detonate the attack within the target. Though difficult and non-fatal, if executed properly this technique is extremely useful because of it's relatively low requirement on a Ninja's own chakra. Kamehameha-Possibly the single most destructive art ever devised. A secret technique created by the legendary Genbu Roshi and passed down through the Son Clan's Main House. Huge amounts of chakra are gatherred between the palms at one's side, the chakra is then released as a powerful wave. Even when used by a fairly weak ninja the attack has been known to punch holes in solid stone surfaces, when used by a powerful master it has been known to level areas the size of a city block. It's said that Genbu Roshi used this technique to carve the valley in which Iwagakure now stands. Because of the enormous cost on one's chakra, as well as the uncontronably destructive nature of the attack, it is a closely guarded secret of the son Family and members who know how to execute it are usually reluctant to use it. Kamekameha & Doton: Kamekameyama & Suiton: Kamekamekappa-Goten's own variation of the infamous Kamehameha. Gathering the energy in his hands he then forms three quick handseals and forms it into the shape of a turtle. Infusing the technique with Earth Chakra causes the turtle to be made of stone, though at his current stage this is extremely difficult for Goten to do properly. The turtle will then crawl very slowly away from Goten and toward a designated target, moving harmlessly across the battlefield. If the turtle gets close to it's target or is impacted or hit by any outside force it will then detonate with all the force of a Kamehameha technique. In the Doton variation of this technique, the explosion is even more violent and powerful and can create a shockwave comparable to Deidara's C4. Like the Kamehameha, this technique causes a severe drain on Goten's chakra and will usually leave him pretty beat if it fails. In the Suiton variation, the turtle formed is composed of water and except for his chakra-glow eyes completely invisible when submerged. This version is a powerful, but dangerous mine that can be left in bodies of water to prevent persuit by foes. Yasai no Yari-The ancient "Method of the Vegetable" that was created by Paragu, the common ancestor of both the Son and Seiojino clans. This requires the ingestion of the Burori Pepper, a golden colored pepper that resembles a small banana pepper with the tree-like portrusions of brocolli and is extremely spicy. By pickling and drying the pepper, it's full potential can be drawn out. When eaten, the pepper can exponentially increast the flow of chakra throughout the body as well as super vitalize a body's natural muscle mass, reflexes and sensory awareness. In short, the vegetable makes people into super humans. However, there is also a severe flaw... it also does immense damage to the physical and chakra systems of the ninja who ingested it because of the incredible amounts of chakra produced by the plant. The answer created by Burori was a method of controlling the chakra flow that damages the body when ingesting the vegetable. This is accomplished by releasing extra amounts of chakra in regulated flow. A golden barrier-like aura is created and maintained around the ninja that is composed entirely of raw chakra. In addition to the ninja becoming exponentially faster and stronger, their chakra flow is increased and the barrier can discipate lesser chakra based jutsu. However, even when masterred, it's extremely unusual to be able to safely hold the Yasai form for longer than a half hour or so. Shunkanido-A technique devised by Goten's father after his now-legendary fight with Namikaze Minato. This technique is similar to Minato's teleportation technique except that it uses a familiar chakra source as an anchor, rather than a summoning tag attached to an object or surface. This means that Goten and his father are only capable of teleporting to people they know and not locations that have been set for them. Fusion Enbu-A two person forbidden technique. Two parties must both perform this technique perfectly. First, Chakra flows must be precisely matched to one another, then a set of dance-like movements must be performed as well as each party forming half of the necessary handseals. The two will dance towards one another, each mirroring the other's movements, and then join and complete the handseals. If performed properly the technique drains no chakra and forms a combination of the two ninja who performed it, if it is not performed properly both ninja will lose huge amounts of chakra as well as suffer considerable injury. It is for that reason that it was forbidden from being practiced, as several pairs died trying to master it. Goten has (mostly) masterred this ability with his friend and teammate Seiojino Tenku. When performed properly the two form "Gotenku". A fusion of two individuals is more powerful than the sum of their parts as well as retains the knowledge, chakra alignment and abilities of both of it's sources. However, even when successful the technique can only be held as long as the body has enough chakra to maintain it, when drained the technique leaves the two original ninja tired and both ninja will retain any injury that was suffered by the fusion. (Gotenku Only. These are just the improvements that Goten brings to the form, other improved techniques would be brought into Gotenku by Tenku.)Kyuukyou Yasai no Yari -The "Ultimate Method of Vegetable" or often called "Third" form (because it was the third to be developped). This version of Yasai no Yari makes far better use of the vast amounts of chakra formed by ingesting the Burori Pepper. This requires, however, that the ninja attempting to perform it be physically capable of handling the strain that will be put on his body. In addition, the usage of the energy is so intense that it can actually drain the vast resources produced by the eating of the pepper. While this makes for incredibly powerful attacks, it also means fewer attacks before one's chakra is used up. Doton / Raiton / Katon: Suupa Kamikazeyuuyuu no Ken-Gotenku mixes various types of chakra into faster and stronger ghost clones that explode and also stun and burn an enemy. Yuuyuubushin no Jutsu-Gotenku uses the same kind of clay-chakra to make the ghosts but they are also imbued with some chakra of Gotenku's so that they can perform techniques and defend themselves. Often this will be combined with the Suupa Kamikazeyuuyuu no Ken, and the clones will still explode if they are able to get close enough to their enemies. Doton / Raiton / Katon: Chou Ginga Donato no Jutsu-While still as solid as Goten's technique, the rings are also charged with fire and/or lightning chakra to make them burn or stun as well. Shonetsu Kamehameha-All the power of the Kamehameha, and all the speed and control of Tenku's Shonetsu Ken. RP Challenge:

Name (& Meaning): Kenachi, Kama Age:12 Country & Affiliation:Grass Country (Don't know the name) Rank:Genin Chakra Alignment:While at the time he doesn't know exactly but he seems to be slight more proficient with water styled jutsus than the others he was taught while in the academy. Special Jutsu Ability:None Physical Description/Picture:Background:Its amazing how much a little persuasion by family can do for someone. After graduating, Kama didn't really even wish to become a genin in fear that he wouldn't live up to his older sibling's relatively high expectations. In truth they weren't that high at all. They had all grown to become fine Chunin. One had even advanced to the rank of Jounin which was a feat in itself. "Come on Kama you big wuss. Your the youngest out of us. Your the last in the family. Its not that hard for you to atleast become a chunin." Jonashi, his oldest brother stated frankly as Kama first told him of his fear of failure, and as such, desire to keep from partaking in the chunin exams. Still, Kama had his doubts, and when he was told that his group were eligable for the test, he was filled with both a feeling of over joyesness and even more stress. For if he messed up, not only would he fail himself and his family, but he now was held accountable for two other shinobi with family that may be feeling the same way as him. Soon, though as much as he wanted to stay and become a chunin, the fear of losing became too great a beast for the lone child to face alone. Seeing that he was unable to do anything there if he stayed that wouldn't result in his group being forced to stay another year or wost... die on the trip. Seeing this as his only option, he thought to set out for either Konoha, the home of the Copy Cat Ninja... or Kirigakure, the realm of the seven blades of the mist. Seeing Kirigakure as being almost too agresive, he turned towards the other alternative and with that, headed for Konoha to meet the legendary Kakashi. Jutsu List:Water Blast Jutsu:-Works very similar to its cousin, the fire ball jutsu, Kama summons a large amount of chakra from his reserves and fires a fairly large spray of water. Since he has yet to fully develop his chakra, he can use this attack effectively maybe no more than once to twice a day. -Substitution Jutsu -Basic Chakra manipulation RP Challenge:

Cupids-Folly Thank you! Here is my original profile. Name (& Meaning): Shippou Seiyuuki ("silver monkey".This has been switched to reflect the left-to-right English name.) Age:18, Pisces Country & Affiliation:Konohagakure- Village Hidden In The Leaves Rank:A rather advanced chuunin (What she is when assigned to a village.) Chakra Alignment:Earth Special Jutsu Ability:She has a weaker form of the Seiyuuki clan's ability. While the true version of their Kekkei Genkai is the imitation of people and animals and forcing them to imitate themselves, Shippou is granted the agility and climbing ability as a monkey. A cloth wrapped around her will act as a "tail". This ability streamlines chakra and uses it efficiently. She has just barely tapped into the second clan skill. Physical Description/Picture: Shippou is a pretty girl with brown hair. It's often in two loops on either side of her head, pinned with a small opal-and-sapphire clip. If let down, her hair would be long enough to sit on. Her eyes are a sparkling brown, and her skin has a golden hue, which is an oddity for the Japanese. She has an opal round locket with a picture of her family inside. Her ninja headband is either on her forehead or placed around her neck. She enjoys wearing free-flowing robes and kimonos, but often wears the more common tactical vest. She also has two visible tattoos in Katakana calligraphy. One is on each wrist, and denotes two different things: The left wrist says "omakizaru"(little monkey), while the right says "Seiyuuki". Background:Shippou appears to be a follower and never quite a leader. She strongly dislikes betrayal, and is quite the loyalist to those whom she likes. Shippou is so determined to keep those who claim her happy that she'll go to certain doom to obey them, without question. She acts childish often, and seems incapable of making many choices without the guidance of her leader. The behavior was caused by her family's treatment of her. The clan chose to ignore Shippou following her birth, because the father had walked out of the group. Shippou bore a strong resemblance to the village traitor, and so they projected their hatred towards her. Eventually, her own mother turned away from her and abandoned the child, leaving her to fend for herself. Shippou was abandoned at seven, and wasn't sure of what to do with herself. She often took after whatever adult she could cling to, even evil entities. That is how she lived up to now,where the mentality still exists. She is an obedient servant who rarely breaks from protocol, and serves anyone who claims to love and care for her. Her perceptions are often clouded by her mentor's views. She is a vagrant, especially when she has someone to follow. Villages are wary of foreigners for various reasons, but she says little to most villagers. In fact, the only notable time when she is exceptionally chatty is whenever she gets a master. She becomes the most childlike then,and asks frequent questions about the world and oddities. When left alone for long enough, Shippou seems to develop an inkling of her own personality, which appears to be fun-loving and slightly stubborn. However, she has been trained to seek out a leader to follow, and continues the destructive pattern. Regardless of this, Shippou is far from stupid. Jutsu List:Bushin no Jutsu(Clone Technique): Everyone is required to know this. Requirement to Graduate as a Gennin. This is a basic jutsu. It creates illusions of the caster, in other words: clones. These are basic clones that aren't real. If they are hit by something, they automatically disappear. Kawarini no Jutsu(Body Substitute Skill): It's implied in the name. The user switches his or her body with a plant, animal or anything for that matter. This is used to escape dangerous situations such as many sharp projectiles being flung at the person. Sometimes you can damage your opponent with this attack even. Sarumane no Jutsu(Body Manipulation Technique;literally "monkey see, monkey do"): This Bloodline trait allows Shippou to either copy the actions of her opponents, or force them to copy her. This can result in a large amount of copied jutsus, although it takes a larger toll on her chakra when used that way. Ichimidoushin (One Mind Technique): This bloodline trait allows the merger of two minds into one view; in this case, the opponent's mind will be absorbed into Shippou's most disturbing thoughts. Monkiibijinesu no Jutsu("Monkey Business" Technique):Both of Shippou's small wrist tattoos glow light blue and afterwards, she's enabled to move as a monkey would. She gains a "tail" (usually some cloth used as another appendage) and becomes faster, gains more stamina, and becomes harder to spot if trying to remain unseen. RP Challenge: Challenge 3:Romance Shippou's eyes sparkled as she excitedly looked up. She went from repeatedly twiddling her thumbs to turning to him. All this time, she had been his obedient servant, devoting every bit of herself to his duties. Shippou absolutely loved affection. It was such euphoria to recieve the slightest of such from her master.. "R-Really? Am I really special?"She didn't speak very loudly, either, but her joy was clearly felt. Shippou practically tackle-hugged Gaara from the ledge, and giggled. Her long robes flowed as she initiated the tackle."I'm special! I'm finally special!" 'Special! Special!' Her voice had picked up enough for an echo to mimic the words. She felt pretty awkward afterwards and became quiet again, leaping back off of him. A light, rosy blush accented her tan cheeks as she tried to make up for her break of protocol. "Uhm..M-My apologies. Did I get your clothes dusty?" Then she grabbed a fan from a billowing sleeve, and tried to cover her blushing face. I'm terrible at this! I'm so sorry...I promise not to sound so stupid!"I-I'm sorry. What's our next mission, again? I forgot.." Her eyes quickly reflected sadness. What was affection if she couldn't continue on her instincts? She would always be a subservient. Nothing else was meant for her. Challenge 5:Social It was a little unusual for Shippou to be out on such a day. Although she was tan, she preferred colder days to warmer ones. However, her master had sent her out, and she travelled through the village with no particular thing in mind. Suddenly, a brightly-colored poster caught her eye. She walked right up to the post and read it out loud.Her eyes grew at the size of the prize, and she began to think: Master would be so happy to have the extra funds! He could buy more weapons and healing potions and food...And the scroll could be so useful to him. I hope he could let me find out the technique. I could mow over his opponents for him with it!The girl took a second more to ponder the ad, and then took it off the pole and stashed it in a sleeve. She stuck her tongue out from just thinking about the previous winner. "Feh! That Tsunade. Who cares about her? I'll make sure to secure the prize for Master!" Challenge 6:Romance Shippou gave the girl a very blank and emotionless look. "It's Master's orders,it is. You must not interfere with his will." She stood her ground, determined to fulfill her orders. Her eyes bored into the girl's with apathy. "He has told me to give you the following information, and so I shall. He says that you are not his ideal student, and that you have no ambition. He states that you do very poorly at jutsus, and that you run after him like a rabid fangirl. He is tired of your attempts at romance, and he wants them ended." After her little speech, her voice changed to mimick her master's. She wasn't doing it for spite, but was compelled to continue. "You are a materialistic little b***h. Get out of my way and out of my life, before I do something that I regret!" Once she was finished, she calmly walked away, unaffected by the damaging words. She barely paid attention to the enraged woman charging after her.
