Full Name: Erik Zumaya Nick Name(s): N/A Dream Title: N/A Current title: N/A
Age:18 Gender: Male Sexual Orientation: Success-sexual
Height: 181cm (5 feet, 11 inches) Weight: 74.4kg (165 lbs) Eye Color: A gentle blend of brown and gold, with a gold ring around the outer edge of his irises. The more focused he is in mood, the sharper the distinction between the rings. This isn't an ocular jutsu of any kind, just a personal trend. Hair Color: A dark mocha brown. While we're at it, his hair is a gentle-looking, straggly medium-long. He often keeps it in a single low ponytail, however, often strands from the front get pulled out of the band during the day's activity.
Build: Considered a real-world equivalent of a lacrosse player's body. Erik is built for contact. He has very broad shoulders, a developed upper body region with strong-looking arms, though not jacked like a bodybuilder's. He has strong pectorals, but a thick torso. His abs are not as defined. Erik's legs, on the other hand, are the opposite. Well-defined quadriceps and calves demonstrate a stoic endurance, stamina, and durability in his legs. Though bulky, and obviously not built for speed, they are powerful.
The rest of his body is rather plain. An indistinguishable but symmetrical nose, medium-small ears, modest cheekbones depict an average, but moderately attractive face. Often, he wears a soft stubble, as he only shaves once every three days, or as time permits. Facial hair does not grow rapid, nor is it slow. Just average. His lips are average, and there is no darkness around his eyes unless going without sleep. The only vaguely defining feature of his face are a pair of brow lines that deepen if he's upset and furrowing at the brow. His waist is average for the build, his feet and hands are average in size, his wingspan and leg reach is average for his size. Scars/Tattoos/Birthmarks:There are multiple pierce wounds on his hands, wrists, back, stomach and legs. There is also a burned insignia in the middle of his back, a symbol of Jashin. Outstanding Features: Due to the work he's put in on his legs, he has acquired what some people have considered quite the remarkable a**. Firm, muscular, and even outright perky, Erik's a** has often gathered the attention of both male and female persuasion.
Personal Skills: There's a saying, "Some people work out to look great. Others work out to kick a**." Erik is most definitely the latter. He is the quintessential workout junkie, going for hours on end working out his body to keep himself in combat condition. Because of this, he has an expert's knowledge of how a human's body moves, reacts, and strains. Practically born with a silver tongue, Erik is very accomplished in the art of negotiation and bargaining. Local merchants are known for giving him preference in rarer items which come into stock. Many times, he's been involved in exchanging rare item for rare item. Foreign merchants have been swindled in the past because of his lack of respect for their wares or for them. Erik has all the basic motor, survival, and educational skills, though he has really bad handwriting and is rather garbage at math. He can never figure out how to divide by zero. Erik knows four conversational languages.
Personal Goals: Erik has an affinity for rare items and for travel. Much of the reason he became a Shinobi in the first place was for a way to explore more outside of the Land of Water. He wants to find as many rarities in the Shinobi world as possible. Traveling the world is definitely a bonus. If he has time, or if he must do so, he may also continue to spread the word of Jashin. Shinobi Goals: At present, he has become infatuated with acquiring one of the seven lost swords of the samurai of the mist. While he has heard rumors of one or two being found, the main weapon of his desires has yet to be discovered. Relationship Status: In his perspective, he's single. By some of the lies he's told, promised to on behalf of several women, and a couple men. Needless to say, he's promiscuous. Personality:Vulgar, crude, and outright arrogant at times. Erik Zumaya can come off as abrasive. Yet, he's very rarely ever unkind. When he speaks, he often does so without a filter. He speaks what he means, acts on his impulses, and is unapologetic for the results. Sometimes this puts him in a worse situation than if he were able to just shut up once in a while. Other times, it bails him out of grave situations. It can also lead to some funny and unpredictable dialogue in regards to situations. You never know when he'll have a comedic quip.
Erik tends to rely a lot on his intuition. Many times, his intuition helps him seek personality flaws within others. This is especially helpful in attempts to persuade and influence. Erik is not above using his physical appearance to gain an advantage against somebody, either by threat or in some situations, actual force. Though, he always prefers to talk his way past. Option B is always his brute force capabilities. After all, he doesn't train for nothing.
Village: Kirikagure Headband Location: Erik wears his headband over his crotch, similar to a cup for some extra protection. He keeps it nice and shiny, making sure to polish it every morning. When somebody asks what village he's from, he simply smiles, points down and tells others, "Take a good look." Headband Color: Midnight blue, with the very edges having a dull black colored trim. It's actually a rare satin, very smooth to the touch.
Primary Class:Elemental Ninjutsu Main Class [ Wind ] Secondary Class: Brawler Subclass Chakra Pool: 400 Chakra Elements: Fuuton ( Wind ), Suiton ( Water ), Raiton ( Lightning ) Chakra Color: Ultraviolet Chakra Materialization: Cancer Rank: Genin
Strengths:
◇ Negotiation ◇ Intimidation ◇ The ability to always have 8 oz of that sweet, sweet Mexican Black Tar
Weaknesses:
◇ Going to his magic satchel too much ◇ Kelly Clarkson ◇ The Mantis Shrimp
Fears:
◇ Underwear that's two sizes too small ◇ Monopathophobia ◇ Uranophobia ◇ Stygiophobia
Class Paths:
◇ Path of the Elementalist - The student has a strange ability to be born with multiple affinities for elements. This user starts with three chosen elements for their character opposed to two. These three elements however are slightly weaker than people with that of only one or two elements. Their elemental Ninjutsu is beaten out by Ninjutsu of the same rank while still retaining its elemental weakness. Elementalists gain an additional +25 Chakra per rank, +1 post reduction to each of the elemental Ninjutsu they learn of their three chosen elements and +6 Ninjutsu slots. ◇ Speed Fighter - followers of this path live by the phrase "the best way to not get hit is to not be there" and as such focus on quick movement and easy change of direction. This gives them a slight increase to speed and agility per rank
Personal Attributes:
◇ Jashin's offering of Blood: +10 Ninjutsu Slots ◇ Jashin's offering of Sweat: Erik has practiced combat enough to know an additional Taijutsu style. ◇ Jashin's offering of Tears: +20 Chakra Control for Ninjutsu of his elemental affinity. (costs 2 PA slots)
Father: Ken Shinomori Mother: Saya Zumaya Siblings: Sora Zumaya - Older Sister (deceased) Cousins: Natsu Shinomori (Metal approves)
Traumas: The Zumaya family has had a long history as practitioners of Jashinism. Erik's older sister unfortunately was an unfortunate victim of an unsuccessful conversion. Because of this, Erik has developed a grave fear of the afterlife, in particularly the ideas of Heaven and Hell. History:
Growing up in a house full of devout Jashinists, Erik knows much about the crazed religion. He was taught that one must know pain before one can inflict it. Love thy blood, love thy sweat, love thy tears. Erik and his sister were forced by their parents to make a choice early on with their lives: Pay tithings to Lord Jashin through sweat, or pay it through blood. This ultimatum philosophy helped to save Erik, and gave him his insane drive to hone his body...or else.
Naturally, Erik followed the path of blood, sweat, and tears as it led toward the path of the shinobi, as it seemed to serve the purposes of his family's desires as well as his own personal ones to break free of his confinements the family put onto him and his sister. Unfortunately, his cousin took the helm as a devout soon after his sister's death. As of now, Erik doesn't follow the Jashinism codes as much as Natsu. However, he still has the markings of that side of him.

At this time this profile is not able to be approved at this time. Reasons are as followed:
also remember your fears.. fear of hell, fear of heaven and fear of definite disease. they do have some drawbacks in certain cases... like a genjutsu that creates hell... to the person used against... and the disease thing its more so like you are afraid to go into any hospital for fear u would get diseases.
~ Personal skills are not to sound like PA's, your second one sounds like you are trying to sneak past PA's to get lower costing items which is not ok.
~ Class paths, please list the entire thing not just the name of it please and thank you.
~ Personal attributes:
- Inspired Wind - For each gained ninjutsu or taijutsu technique through base or training, gain +20 Chakra for each technique.
sorry that is a no go, you can have +10 chakra per rank ... but not the way you have it here cause that is way too many jutsu you could technically have and that would gain you too much chakra to begin with.
- Measured Efficiency - If the cost of a technique to learn is less than one-tenth of the current total chakra, the cost to learn is halved.
No there is no more then a certain number of posts to learn things... like lets say as an example... a taijutsu move without reductions costs 12 to learn... dojo gives -3 so that goes down to 9 posts... then having a teacher who has it learned AND teaching u... thats another -2 then if u have anything in ur classes... it litterally can make the things you learn go down to training to almost nothing if you do it right... but you are not allowed to have all the training reductions... it must be a -1 rduction to said thing.... like taijutsu ninjutsu... etc...
- Strength In Numbers - If working together with an ally using a technique of the same element as one Erik can utilize, increase the effectiveness and power of both Erik and the ally's attack by 1 rank.
This PA is a definite no no. No rank increases allowed in any which way shape or form outside dictated in classes and bloodlines... sorry.
inventory is fine except for the steel cables.. that is not allowed... neither is the Kyo and the brink of rare coins... not allowed sorry.
please make all said changes. and please quote me once done... thank you
I have a few questions for you in regards to your judgment based on what is or isn't allowed.
Personal Fears: Definite disease is quite simple really, it's based on Erik's perceptions of people who are sick. Hospital waiting rooms would be a place of high anxiety, as would being near people who appear to have certain disease symptoms which he'd perceive as diseases.
As far as heaven and hell, that too is also a perception. If he got caught in a genjutsu that created hell, it would depend on if it was the castor's version of hell or if the genjutsu specifically had the capability of diving into the victim's mind and extracting the victim's own brand of hell. I don't know how fair it would be for any technique to be based off another character's perceptions, but if that was the case, then I'd obviously play it accordingly.
Personal Skills: The goal of this isn't for paying more or less for items, the goal of this is for information to rarer items. AKA Role play. Whether I get a discount or not is entirely up to the store clerk. Not me. This skill has no dictation to how much a discount would or could be if offered, it's solely decided through role play. I can reword it to seem like less of an issue if there is such a conflict though. If buying items is an automatic thing done outside of character, let me know and I can remove it. But as a skill, trying to get information in a role play sense is a good one to have.
Class Paths: I have added the descriptions as well.
Personality Attributes: I'm confused by a couple of your staements in my assessment. For instance,
Quote:
No rank increases allowed in any which way shape or form outside dictated in classes and bloodlines... sorry.
But earlier in the assessment, you told me
Quote:
you can have +10 chakra per rank
Is this not a rank increase? How is this allowable and the strength in numbers, considering strength in numbers is more a power and effectiveness case, rather than a direct rank increase. As far as what I've seen in the guild, the only comparison to power is through rank, and I haven't seen any other way to measure effectiveness other than through role play (ie. The "victim determines damage" etiquette rule of most RP fighting). The goal is to add help as a support characters to my allies if we match elements. How would you prefer it reworded to accomplish such a feat?
Inherited Wind: Perhaps 20 was too much for this situation. Would +5 be allowable? The issue at hand is having too much chakra too early, correct? I'm curious though what the guild's stance is on expected chakra levels for their characters. For instance, what is expected at Genin, Chuunin, Jounin, Kage levels?
Measured Efficiency: I created this PA initially because it was told to me that training for a jutsu cost chakra to even begin training. Is that not the case?
Strength in Numbers: Discussed above
Inventory: I thought we had to include all inventory, would the carrying of kyo not count as well? It's fine, I'll remove that and the coins. But why is steel cable not allowed? It's a ninja tool after all, for traps.
Anyway, before I can continue fully with my profile edits, clarification on your assessment would be much appreciated.

Ok the chakra thing is fine... jutsu types or w/e can not go up a rank...
and yes please change the personal skills cause there is no way shape or form that you are allowed to have reductions in cost for anything in the stores.
that first PA you have there:
Inspired Wind - For each gained ninjutsu or taijutsu technique through base or training, gain +20 Chakra for each technique.
you can not gain more chakra outside the +10 per rank in a PA.... this gains you +20 per tai or buki tech you gain... and that in my books is a complete no no.
Measured Efficiency - If the cost of a technique to learn is less than one-tenth of the current total chakra, the cost to learn is halved. <---- for 1 pa you can only go down to a 1post reduction... not half.... plus the math is killing me lol... please fix... like your third PA says... that is fine.. but this one is not.
i understand strength in numbers.... but it is not ok to make a PA that strengthens you and your ally in battle... also its a rank increase to begin with and like i said before no rank increases to certain elements and such outside the dictated classes and paths... sorry for the confusion but please fix all those and re-quote me
also the cable can be bought in the store... you can not start with it...
You didn't bother to read any of my questions for clarification, did you?

You didn't bother to read any of my questions for clarification, did you?
ok you want a clarification? Your profile isnt done correctly the things i said that were worng should be simple enough to understand. if you need more clarification other then a mod telling you to change it because of the rules stated. then there is a problem.
I read your entire post so next time mind what you say. you can not have PA's that give you extra chakra outside the PA of +10 per rank (if you want to use all 4 for that it would be +40 ber rank if that helps any)
Also your third PA has been brought to my attention.. i misread it.. it can not have reduction to all jutsu types... it has to be limited to something more along the lines of katon. doton, tai, buki reduction.. please fix accordingly
training does not cost u chakra.. using it does.. i dont know where you got this information from but whoever it was was telling you false info.
i answered you to the best of my ability. please fix and review all that i told you to fix thank you
Full Name: Erik Zumaya Nick Name(s): N/A Dream Title: N/A Current title: N/A
Age:18 Gender: Male Sexual Orientation: Success-sexual
Height: 181cm (5 feet, 11 inches) Weight: 74.4kg (165 lbs) Eye Color: A gentle blend of brown and gold, with a gold ring around the outer edge of his irises. The more focused he is in mood, the sharper the distinction between the rings. This isn't an ocular jutsu of any kind, just a personal trend. Hair Color: A dark mocha brown. While we're at it, his hair is a gentle-looking, straggly medium-long. He often keeps it in a single low ponytail, however, often strands from the front get pulled out of the band during the day's activity.
Build: Considered a real-world equivalent of a lacrosse player's body. Erik is built for contact. He has very broad shoulders, a developed upper body region with strong-looking arms, though not jacked like a bodybuilder's. He has strong pectorals, but a thick torso. His abs are not as defined. Erik's legs, on the other hand, are the opposite. Well-defined quadriceps and calves demonstrate a stoic endurance, stamina, and durability in his legs. Though bulky, and obviously not built for speed, they are powerful.
The rest of his body is rather plain. An indistinguishable but symmetrical nose, medium-small ears, modest cheekbones depict an average, but moderately attractive face. Often, he wears a soft stubble, as he only shaves once every three days, or as time permits. Facial hair does not grow rapid, nor is it slow. Just average. His lips are average, and there is no darkness around his eyes unless going without sleep. The only vaguely defining feature of his face are a pair of brow lines that deepen if he's upset and furrowing at the brow. His waist is average for the build, his feet and hands are average in size, his wingspan and leg reach is average for his size. Scars/Tattoos/Birthmarks:There are multiple pierce wounds on his hands, wrists, back, stomach and legs. There is also a burned insignia in the middle of his back, a symbol of Jashin. Outstanding Features: Due to the work he's put in on his legs, he has acquired what some people have considered quite the remarkable a**. Firm, muscular, and even outright perky, Erik's a** has often gathered the attention of both male and female persuasion.
Personal Skills: There's a saying, "Some people work out to look great. Others work out to kick a**." Erik is most definitely the latter. He is the quintessential workout junkie, going for hours on end working out his body to keep himself in combat condition. Because of this, he has an expert's knowledge of how a human's body moves, reacts, and strains. Practically born with a silver tongue, Erik is very accomplished in the art of negotiation and bargaining. Local merchants are known for giving him preference in rarer items which come into stock. Many times, he's been involved in exchanging rare item for rare item. Foreign merchants have been swindled in the past because of his lack of respect for their wares or for them. Erik has all the basic motor, survival, and educational skills, though he has really bad handwriting and is rather garbage at math. He can never figure out how to divide by zero. Erik knows four conversational languages.
Personal Goals: Erik has an affinity for rare items and for travel. Much of the reason he became a Shinobi in the first place was for a way to explore more outside of the Land of Water. He wants to find as many rarities in the Shinobi world as possible. Traveling the world is definitely a bonus. If he has time, or if he must do so, he may also continue to spread the word of Jashin. Shinobi Goals: At present, he has become infatuated with acquiring one of the seven lost swords of the samurai of the mist. While he has heard rumors of one or two being found, the main weapon of his desires has yet to be discovered. Relationship Status: In his perspective, he's single. By some of the lies he's told, promised to on behalf of several women, and a couple men. Needless to say, he's promiscuous. Personality:Vulgar, crude, and outright arrogant at times. Erik Zumaya can come off as abrasive. Yet, he's very rarely ever unkind. When he speaks, he often does so without a filter. He speaks what he means, acts on his impulses, and is unapologetic for the results. Sometimes this puts him in a worse situation than if he were able to just shut up once in a while. Other times, it bails him out of grave situations. It can also lead to some funny and unpredictable dialogue in regards to situations. You never know when he'll have a comedic quip.
Erik tends to rely a lot on his intuition. Many times, his intuition helps him seek personality flaws within others. This is especially helpful in attempts to persuade and influence. Erik is not above using his physical appearance to gain an advantage against somebody, either by threat or in some situations, actual force. Though, he always prefers to talk his way past. Option B is always his brute force capabilities. After all, he doesn't train for nothing.
Village: Kirikagure Headband Location: Erik wears his headband over his crotch, similar to a cup for some extra protection. He keeps it nice and shiny, making sure to polish it every morning. When somebody asks what village he's from, he simply smiles, points down and tells others, "Take a good look." Headband Color: Midnight blue, with the very edges having a dull black colored trim. It's actually a rare satin, very smooth to the touch.

◇ Underwear that's two sizes too small ◇ Monopathophobia ◇ Uranophobia ◇ Stygiophobia
Class Paths:
◇ Path of the Elementalist - The student has a strange ability to be born with multiple affinities for elements. This user starts with three chosen elements for their character opposed to two. These three elements however are slightly weaker than people with that of only one or two elements. Their elemental Ninjutsu is beaten out by Ninjutsu of the same rank while still retaining its elemental weakness. Elementalists gain an additional +25 Chakra per rank, +1 post reduction to each of the elemental Ninjutsu they learn of their three chosen elements and +6 Ninjutsu slots. ◇ Speed Fighter - followers of this path live by the phrase "the best way to not get hit is to not be there" and as such focus on quick movement and easy change of direction. This gives them a slight increase to speed and agility per rank
Personal Attributes:
◇ Jashin's offering of Blood: +10 Ninjutsu Slots ◇ Jashin's offering of Sweat: Erik has practiced combat enough to know an additional Taijutsu style. ◇ Jashin's offering of Tears: +20 Chakra Control for Ninjutsu (costs 2 PA slots)
Father: Ken Shinomori Mother: Saya Zumaya Siblings: Sora Zumaya - Older Sister (deceased) Cousins: Natsu Shinomori (Metal approves)
Traumas: The Zumaya family has had a long history as practitioners of Jashinism. Erik's older sister unfortunately was an unfortunate victim of an unsuccessful conversion. Because of this, Erik has developed a grave fear of the afterlife, in particularly the ideas of Heaven and Hell. History:
Growing up in a house full of devout Jashinists, Erik knows much about the crazed religion. He was taught that one must know pain before one can inflict it. Love thy blood, love thy sweat, love thy tears. Erik and his sister were forced by their parents to make a choice early on with their lives: Pay tithings to Lord Jashin through sweat, or pay it through blood. This ultimatum philosophy helped to save Erik, and gave him his insane drive to hone his body...or else.
Naturally, Erik followed the path of blood, sweat, and tears as it led toward the path of the shinobi, as it seemed to serve the purposes of his family's desires as well as his own personal ones to break free of his confinements the family put onto him and his sister. Unfortunately, his cousin took the helm as a devout soon after his sister's death. As of now, Erik doesn't follow the Jashinism codes as much as Natsu. However, he still has the markings of that side of him.
one thing could you please remove the spoilers from your profile before you post in in the village you made it for. Also keep in mind that your "silver tongue" will not get you and deals with any of the merchants. also your -20 chakra reduction should be more so element.. not ninjutsu in general. please fix then it should be ok. Thank you for your patience. approved after fixes.
