Alarmed and Strangerous
This is where you can post your characters for Shogun of Shadows once they've been approved via PM. Please note that you have the option of of creating either a genin or a chunin level character. Chunin will obviously start with more attribute and jutsu points, making them more powerful, however genin will generally be awarded more points after successful missions, allowing them to grow faster. Once the the genin characters start to catch up with chunin, they'll be promoted and the characters will be on more or less even footing. I'm not entirely how sure that process will take however as it will depend partly on how many missions players participate in.

Beyond gameplay, I encourage you to think about what kind of character you want to play, someone starting off fresh and inexperienced with lots of room to grow? or someone who's already a bit developed in terms of their outlook and approach to things. Both can be potentially a lot of fun I think and seeing the two different levels of character interact should provide an interesting dynamic to the RP. Please note that Chunin applications will be subject to a bit more scrutiny in terms of balance and quality of writing, if you want to start with more power I'd like to be reasonably confident you're going to be a positive addition to the RP. If you're a bit less experienced or just wanting to feel more casual about things, I encourage you to consider a genin character as an option.


If you want to create a genin character, then you'll start with 15 attribute points to allocate and 6 points to spend on jutsu while chunin start with 40 attribute points and 12 jutsu points. genin characters can't allocate more than 5 points to any one attribute or take more than -3 points of ineptitude. Chunin characters are uncapped in this regard.


If you have any trouble with the CS, refer to the guide below for a step by step on filling out your stats, although keep in mind that the guide was written for earlier RPs where playing as a chunin was not an option so it might be slightly confusing from that perspective. If you're still having trouble after that feel free to reach out to me, via the interest check, DM or discord, whatever works for you.

Filling out Your Skills & Attributes

While the rest of the CS is hopefully fairly self-explanatory, the Skills and Attributes grid can be a little bit complex so we've provided a step by step guide to walk you through the process.

As you can see, the stat grid has three rows: attributes, skills and bonuses. The 15 points you start the RP with are only divided up among the categories in the first row, the skill row is filled out by averaging together different attributes and the bonuses row we will discuss further down.

Str Agi Per Int Stm Mastery(+2 to a skill of your choice per point)Ineptitude(-2 to a skill of your choice per -point)Total
Attributes 1 to 5 1 to 5 1 to 5 1 to 5 1 to 5 0 to 3 -5 to 0 15
Taijutsu Tools Stealth Genjutsu Ninjutsu Specialization: (enter name here if unlocked)Specialization 2: (cannot be unlocked yet)
Skills (str+stm)/2 (agi+str)/2 (per+agi)/2 (int+per)/2 (stm+int)/2 (stat+stat)/2 (cannot be unlocked yet)
Mastery Bonuses/Ineptitude Maluses

Your first step when filling out a stat grid should be to allocate points to your basic attributes, your character's strength, agility, perception, intelligence and stamina. You can go to the mechanics page to learn more about what each of these attributes do but this guide will assume you have already done that. You'll observe that in this example table we've allocated all our points to basic attributes but when you fiill out your grid you might want to reserve some of your attribute points for Mastery which we will cover further down.

Str Agi Per Int Stm Mastery(+2 to a skill of your choice per point)Ineptitude(-2 to a skill of your choice per -point)Total
Attributes 5 3 2 2 3 0 to 3 -5 to 0 15
Taijutsu Tools Stealth Genjutsu Ninjutsu Specialization: (enter name here if unlocked)Specialization 2: (cannot be unlocked yet)
Skills (str+stm)/2 (agi+str)/2 (per+agi)/2 (int+per)/2 (stm+int)/2 (stat+stat)/2 (cannot be unlocked yet)
Mastery Bonuses/Ineptitude Maluses

Calculating your basic skills is as simple as averaging together the two attributes related to that skill, in fact the exact formulas are displayed within the grid if you are unsure. You can see our example character has a fairly balanced skill profile, with good taijutsu and tools scores and very average scores in their other categories.

Str Agi Per Int Stm Mastery(+2 to a skill of your choice per point)Ineptitude(-2 to a skill of your choice per -point)Total
Attributes 5 3 2 2 3 0 to 3 -5 to 0 15
Taijutsu Tools Stealth Genjutsu Ninjutsu Specialization: (enter name here if unlocked)Specialization 2: (cannot be unlocked yet)
Skills 4 4 2.5 2 2.5 (stat+stat)/2 (cannot be unlocked yet)
Mastery Bonuses/Ineptitude Maluses

Now you might find that the skills you end up with through this process don't quite suit the character you wanted. Maybe you wanted to specialize a little more, or you wanted to be really good at ninjutsu but terrible at genjutsu even though they are both partially derived from your intelligence score. This is where the two attribute categories we ignored earlier, Mastery and Ineptitude, come in.

Mastery is an attribute that allows us to raise any skill. Each attribute point invested in the mastery category allows us to add a bonus of +2 to any skill you want. These bonuses are marked in the third row, like so. Keep in mind that a character can only ever have 1/5th of their total attribute points invested in mastery. So with 15 points total to start with a new character can only have a maximum of 3 attribute points in it.

Str Agi Per Int Stm Mastery(+2 to a skill of your choice per point)Ineptitude(-2 to a skill of your choice per -point)Total
Attributes 5 3 2 2 3 1 -5 to 0 16
Taijutsu Tools Stealth Genjutsu Ninjutsu Specialization: (enter name here if unlocked)Specialization 2: (cannot be unlocked yet)
Skills 4 4 2.5 2 2.5 - (cannot be unlocked yet)
Mastery Bonuses/Ineptitude Maluses +2

We've decided our example character here should be good at taijutsu, so we've spent an attribute point in mastery and added the +2 bonus there, raising our taijutsu score to 6. Now if you've been paying attention you might have noticed a problem: that extra point we spent has brought us to 16, one over the 15 point limit. This is where Ineptitude comes in. Ineptitude is like a negative, or opposite version mastery, we can lower our ineptitude score below zero to free up attribute points to spend elsewhere. However, each point we take out of ineptitude like this confers a penalty of -2 to a skill of our choosing, just like an opposite version of the +2 bonus.


Str Agi Per Int Stm Mastery(+2 to a skill of your choice per point)Ineptitude(-2 to a skill of your choice per -point)Total
Attributes 5 3 2 2 3 1 -1 15
Taijutsu Tools Stealth Genjutsu Ninjutsu Specialization: (enter name here if unlocked)Specialization 2: (cannot be unlocked yet)
Skills 4 4 2.5 2 2.5 - (cannot be unlocked yet)
Mastery Bonuses/Ineptitude Maluses +2 -2


There we go, back to 15 points. Our genjutsu score was already very low so we've decided to neglect it completely and apply the penalty from our ineptitude there. This character is now very vulnerable to even basic genjutsu, but they have great taijutsu for a genin and lots of other options to fall back on as well. Now plenty of characters will be done at this stage. However anyone who wants to have particularly rare, or special techniques will have to deal with the specialization section of the Grid.

Specializations are described in greater detail on the mechanics page, so you should read that section if you intend to take one. But in short specializations are like extra skills. They cover unusual, or specialized techniques that not all shinobi will learn and utilize. Kekkei Genkai and Hiden techniques are two examples of specializations but there are some more common ones too: sensory ninjutsu or fuuinjutsu for example.

Each specialization has it's own score, just like the rest of your skills. Some specializations are derived from the same attributes as basic skills but many have their own, unique combinations. Some of the more common specializations have their attributes listed in the mechanics page, but for custom specializations or more obscure ones you will probably need to just ask a GM.

Let's adjust our example character's grid so that he can take a specialization and then give him Nintaijutsu: a specialization derived from strength and intelligence that will take advantage of his best attribute.

Str Agi Per Int Stm Mastery(+2 to a skill of your choice per point)Ineptitude(-2 to a skill of your choice per -point)Total
Attributes 4 2 2 2 2 1 -1 15
Taijutsu Tools Stealth Genjutsu Ninjutsu Specialization: NintaijutsuSpecialization 2: (cannot be unlocked yet)
Skills 3 3 2 2 2 3 (cannot be unlocked yet)
Mastery Bonuses/Ineptitude Maluses +2 -2

All Done! Now all that's left is fill out the rest of the character skeleton.
 
Kohaku Fujioka

147e2801b1f3dfe948048016c553a13c66189d07.png

Can we play now?
Kohaku



  • Team: <Unassigned>
    Rank: Genin

    Village: Hidden Sand

    Personality: Bright and bubbly, Kohaku tends to come off more like the child she is than a graduated genin. If doing something she doesn't want to, her attention span is laughably short and her ability to remain still vanishes. She'd much rather be off playing than reading through books and scrolls or sitting through a lecture. Likely her only saving grace during the academy was that she considered working with her puppets a form of play.

    Even before her bloody initiation into the shinobi world, she has a surprisingly dark sense of humor. Making morbid jokes and remarks. Most brush it and her fascination with death as just part and parcel of being a puppet master. Despite her beaming smiles and bright outlook, Kohaku has a bad habit of bottling up her emotions. If she's strong and doesn't cry anymore, no one would have to worry about her.


    History: Born into a family of puppet masters, becoming a shinobi seemed like the obvious path for Kohaku. Even from a young age, she was playing with various (unarmed) puppets designed by her parents and older brother. They may have been little more than dolls at the time, but working on them was how she spent time with her parents. It was playtime, family time, and Kohaku loved nearly every minute of it. Her father, Toshirou, often used puppets she helped make when telling stories, manipulating the crudely made dolls with practiced finesse.

    Both of Kohaku's parents had achieved the rank of jounin during their careers and were away on missions more often than not. She missed them when they were working, but it was just a part of life. Same with her brother Hikaru, though being a genin preparing for the exams he wasn't gone for as long as their parents usually were. It wouldn't be long before she could graduate from the academy and join them on their missions.

    Graduation should've been a day of celebration, newly minted shinobi showing off their hard earned headbands to friends and family alike. Instead, news of the Hidden Mist's fall cast a pall over the village. War was coming. All shinobi were expected to mobilize for the new allied forces, fresh genin included. Though they would at least be spared the violence of the front lines, only helping to run supplies and set up the camps before returning home. Her teammates, Noa and Kaito, complained at the assignment, wanting to show their skills on the field as they underestimated the danger that waited.

    The life of a shinobi is rarely a long one, especially with the sudden eruption of war. Her parents were assigned to the frontlines of the ill-fated attack on the Shogun's forces. Her mother, Yuzuki chose to stay behind to buy the forces time for their withdrawal from the battlefield. Kohaku overheard some of their comrades wondering if the action was brought on by the loss of Toshirou earlier on in the battle. Even the supposed safety of the camp was found to be untrue, as a surprise attack struck where many of Sand's genin had been busying themselves with setting up the camps.

    Jun Sensei jumped to his team's defense, ordering the trio and any other nearby fresh genin to flee and hide. Fight only if they had to.

    They ignored him.

    Noa leapt ahead, knocking away projectiles with her great fan. Kaito formed walls of earth to try and slow their advances while Kohaku's lithe hound puppet raced into the fray.

    Kohaku didn't even see her puppet get smashed, only felt the sudden disconnection from her threads. Gusts of wind only serve to strengthen flames. Fueling an inferno that swept through the campground, consuming tents and unprepared shinobi alike. Uneven earthen walls do little against trained fighters, only worsening as Kaito's chakra reserves faltered. A spear found his heart.

    At her sensei's renewed urging, she finally ran. Kohaku doesn't remember what happened after that, her rescuers said she'd been found inside a hollow old tree, covered in blood and soot. She didn't speak for days, not until Hikaru finally found where she was staying. Kohaku clung to her brother and cried.

    The loss of their parents and friends hit both siblings hard and both reacted in different ways. Hikaru channeled his energy in caring for his sister and in his work as a shinobi. He didn't want to rely on distant relatives for help, as it'd be acknowledging his parents really were gone. Kohaku bounced back surprisingly quickly, all things considered, burying the pain behind a grin so her brother wouldn't have to worry.

    Somehow, she was going to make it as a kunoichi.

    Clan Info: The Fujioka are renowned puppet masters and poison experts in the Hidden Sand. Even with their poisonous blood, many go on to study a wider variety of lethal substances and ways to counter them.

Kunoichi are supposed to stick to the shadows. If you ask me, being caught up in a fight means you've already messed up. Dattebane.
Tsuyu



  • Team: <Unassigned>
    Rank: Chunin

    Village: Hidden Leaf

    Personality:
    Uzumaki Tsuyu is a spirited and fiercely determined young kunoichi who embodies the resilience and legacy of her clan. At 17, she carries the pride of her Uzumaki heritage with a quiet intensity, dedicating herself to mastering the ancient sealing techniques that her family is known for. Tsuyu approaches life with a sense of duty and a sharp focus, believing that her survival and her clan’s continued existence are responsibilities she must uphold. While she isn’t the loudest in the room, her presence commands respect through her unwavering resolve and the quiet confidence she exudes when faced with a challenge.


    Beneath her serious demeanor lies a deeply compassionate and protective nature, especially toward her comrades and the younger members of the village. Tsuyu has a habit of taking on the role of an older sibling to those around her, offering advice and guidance when needed. However, her protective instincts can sometimes manifest as overbearing, as she often feels responsible for others' well-being. She holds the ideals of loyalty and self-sacrifice close to her heart, a mindset inherited from stories of her ancestors' tragic demise. This can cause her to shoulder burdens alone, reluctant to ask for help or show vulnerability.


    Though driven and disciplined, Tsuyu has a playful and curious side that surfaces when she’s with people she trusts. She enjoys crafting seals for non-combat purposes, using her talents to solve everyday problems in inventive ways, such as creating storage seals for her teammates or prank seals to lighten the mood. Despite her solemn outlook on her clan’s history, she believes that life should be enjoyed, and she works hard to protect the peace that allows her friends to smile. Her greatest fear is to lose those she loves, which drives her to constantly improve her skills in Fūinjutsu to ensure she can protect them when the time comes.

    History:
    Uzumaki Tsuyu’s life has been shaped by war and the legacy of her clan’s tragic past. Born into the Uzumaki Clan’s small but resilient remnant in Konohagakure, she was raised on stories of her ancestors’ downfall and their mastery of Fūinjutsu. Her early life was peaceful by shinobi standards, but that peace was fleeting. By the time Tsuyu reached her teenage years, the shinobi world was once again plunged into chaos with the sudden invasion led by the enigmatic figure known only as “The Shogun.” The invasion began in the Land of Water, and the swift fall of Kirigakure sent shockwaves across the world. Like many others in the village, Tsuyu was thrown into a state of unease, knowing that it was only a matter of time before the conflict reached their doorstep.

    When the allied forces of the five great nations gathered to repel the invaders, Tsuyu was among the younger shinobi sent to the front lines. As a newly minted Chūnin, she found herself tasked with supporting logistical efforts and fortifying supply lines with Fūinjutsu, her expertise in seals making her invaluable in setting up protective barriers and secure communication channels. However, the allied forces were ill-prepared for the invaders’ coordinated assault, and Tsuyu quickly found herself thrust into battle far beyond her rank and experience. The chaos and disarray of the failed defense deeply affected her, as she witnessed seasoned shinobi fall and comrades turn on each other in moments of panic and distrust. It was in this crucible of war that Tsuyu learned the harsh realities of the shinobi world and the fragility of alliances built on fear rather than trust.

    During the disastrous battle in the eastern Land of Fire, Tsuyu was assigned to a defensive unit tasked with holding a critical chokepoint to buy time for the retreating allied forces. She would have been captured or killed had it not been for the intervention of a veteran Kirigakure jonin who saved her life at the expense of his own. This moment left a lasting impact on Tsuyu—she would forever carry the weight of that sacrifice and the lesson that true strength comes from unity and selflessness, not from political allegiances or fear-driven tactics.

    Though the allied forces had suffered a crushing defeat, she refused to give in to despair. Instead, she focused her efforts on improving her Fūinjutsu, determined to create seals that could protect her comrades and turn the tide in future battles.

    Clan Info:
    The Uzumaki Clan, renowned for their mastery of Fūinjutsu, stands as one of the most formidable families in the shinobi world's history. My version of the Uzumaki story focuses on their unparalleled sealing techniques and vast chakra reserves—abilities that ultimately led to the clan's tragic downfall. Unlike the canon version, this interpretation excludes the enhanced healing factor seen in Naruto: Shippuden, instead emphasizing their proficiency in complex seals and their exceptional stamina in battle.

    Following the destruction of Uzushiogakure, a small group of Uzumaki survivors fled to Konohagakure, where they found refuge. These remnants would go on to establish a new life within the village, maintaining their clan's legacy and knowledge of Fūinjutsu. Much like the Hyūga and Uchiha clans, the Uzumaki resided in their own distinct district within the Hidden Leaf, preserving their culture and traditions while integrating into Konoha’s society. Though few in number, they remain a powerful presence, their expertise in sealing techniques highly sought after and respected throughout the shinobi world.

Minoru Minori

1736258013721.jpeg
I'm not going to stand back when there's something I could be doing.
Minoru



  • Team: <Unassigned>
    Rank: Genin

    Village: Iron Stone

    Personality: Serious and earnest to a fault, Minoru is unerring in anything she chooses to do, for better or for worse. It makes her stubborn, and hard to direct, but determined and easy to follow. She has a kind streak, being taught from a young age it was her responsibility to help others. When a pair of bullies picked on one of her classmates early on, she decked both of them without even pausing her step and kept walking.

    Partly because of her dedication and pride, Minoru sometimes feels like she doesn't have anyone to turn to when things are hard. She feels she has to maintain a positive and upbeat tune, and to set an example for others. Her deepest secret, other than being a samurai, is that she feels like a fish out of water and has no idea if she's doing the right thing, or even what it is she's doing at all!




    History: When the army of shadows descended, Minoru seemed almost strangely excited. Her clan had always been a model among the Land of Iron, and she felt she had an obligation to help! She fantasized of helping the poor ninja under attack many times, and showing them the correctness of the samurai. She trained extra hard, being a model heiress for her clan. Sometimes she trained until the night rose, and her hands callused. She went through many blades, a bit too eager to learn the skills of her father, and amazed he could cut through even stone.

    She could not, and the blacksmith asked her to please stop trying.

    The day rose that Minoru finally achieved rank of samurai, even if only the lowest rank, and she asked when it was the Land of Iron would help. She was shocked when her father shook her head, and said the Land of Iron would be defending itself, but they couldn't risk another trick by the ninja. Already the samurai were a dying breed, and to leave their lands undefended against the incoming attack would be criminal. Her father then let slip a political hope that the ninja would crush eachother and let the samurai rise again. It crushed her, that was not the model samurai she was trained to be! That was not their way, to sit back and let people kill eachother!

    She decided if no one else would show the ninja how it was done, she would! She snuck off in the night, towards the Land of Fire, to see how she could help.

    She didn't even make it before an explosive crossbow destroyed the area Minoru was in. She didn't remember anything but the ringing of her ears, the blood in her mouth, and the blackness that overtook her.

    Luckily, some Stone Medic Nin had found her. Shaking their heads, they put Minoru with the other genin, commenting how it was terrible, how genin from former Kiri couldn't catch a break... even in the Land of FIre. She kept her mouth shut for once. Minoru experienced terror from nearly dying, shaking her belief and resolve. She couldn't run back home... but she realized something she hadn't even considered... she was too weak to do anything!

    She started to cry, and the Stone nin comforted her, telling her she'd be alright, that they'd take her in, that there would be a place for her, and genin didn't need to worry about the front line. Not once did she correct them... even when she saw the paperwork saying she was from Kiri... It was a convenient lie. The first lie for the little white knight. She even kept the smoke bombs they gave her, afraid of getting caught again. She even stuck around to watch some of the basic ninja skills, hating herself for learning 'tricks', but too scared to die.





    Clan Info: A prominent clan among the Land of Iron, the Minori clan is famed for their dojutsu and prowess with a sword. It's thought to have been a mutation of the sharingan many years ago that had fallen into the Land of Iron, but since then the Minori have proudly served their lands. They serve as model samurais and are extremely strict as a clan as far as appearances and propiety.

Tachiagari Kagayaku

I'll support you, so don't look back.
Tachiagari Kagayaku



  • Team: <Unassigned>
    Rank: Chunin
    Village: Iwagakure

    Personality:

    Most shinobi are cocky or arrogant; Tachiagari is very different from the typical ninja. He is self-conscious and more often than not, wears a mask to hide whatever weak emotion he may be feeling. Having grown up in a time of peace, Tachiagari is greatly opposed to the use of violence and recent events have made him long for a more peaceful end to the ongoing conflict. Because of these beliefs Tachiagari borders on being a pacifist and unless the lives of those he cares for are on the line he prefers to remain far from combat in a supporting role.

    Deep down, Tachiagari is a warm, kind soul. He is overly generous with others and is always willing to assist someone. When it comes to interacting with others, the young shinobi is very outgoing. Around friends or familiar faces, Tachiagari is very relaxed; a warm presence who laughs a lot. He is easy to be around and has a welcoming aura. It is his need for outside strength and constant interaction that has made him so sociable.

    History:

    The war took a lot, from a lot of people, the Kagayaku clan was no exception. They lost many of their clansmen leaving mostly the elderly and young children. The shinobi who returned from the fighting were barely alive and the best conditions were lost limbs. Yuki, Tachiagari's mother, was among those who lost body parts to the initial attack. Somewhere on that vast battlefield, both of her arms were missing their body and decaying. Her husband, Taka, not only went blind, but had shrapnel in his body. The debris couldn't be removed on the battlefield without killing him, but by the time the dust settled and medical ninja arrived on the scene, he was gone. This heartache was the catalyst that caused Tachiagari to join the war effort.

    As a baby Tachiagari was quite troublesome.. They expected as much though, he was a member of the Kagayaku clan after all and they were known for being an energetic and lively bunch. It due in part to their role as farmers and healers which gave them a unique outlook on life and opened their eyes to how brief it was. So they had a philosophy of celebrating even the small events and living it up. This meant that Tachiagari grew up around parties, festivals, and endless celebrations with people who had hearts bigger than their heads. As was tradition the young Tachiagari participated in the farm work around the clan compound. What should have been work became more like playtime when he followed his father and grandfather around the crops and spent time learning about the many different plants and all the livestock. The Kagayaku clan's Mud Release made them perfect for the role of farmers, but they also specialized in medicine.

    From a young age Tachi showed an interest in the healing arts, but when he got older and his family found him sitting in on lectures and caught him watching surgeries, they decided it was time to help him get involved. Since he wasn't a genin yet Yuki started by teaching Tachiagari basic anatomy and by the time he'd graduated from the academy he was sharpening his skills with a scalpel. It was partially thanks to this skill that many overlooked what could only be described as an aversion to confrontation which Tachiagari's teachers had taken notice of. It did raise question on how he'd fair as a shinobi, but his ties to a medical clan assured the doubters that his path was set already. After graduation, because he was still young, most his patients were usually animals around the farm and that was how he sharpened his skills with mundane medicine.

    As the age of peace carried on, Tachi progressed through his training and as a genin he treated his first human patient while out on a mission with his squad. The minor wounds left a major impact in his life as never before had he felt such joy or pride. He became a regular at the Kagayaku clinic when not on missions and this gave him firsthand experience. However reports from his squad leader detailed Tachi's unwillingness to engage in combat without the threat of a loss of life. This behavior resulted in his physical capabilities falling behind that of his teammates and even that of the other genin, but his sensei held out faith that things might change. To that end she trained Tachi in a defensive style that would allow him to join the fight even if only to protect and not to harm. Progressing with the fighting style was a prerequisite that had to be completed for Tachiagari to be permitted to participate in the Chunin Exams.

    Determined to become a chunin he did as his sensei advised and trained hard day in and day out. It was thanks to this unique fighting style that Tachiagari was able to wear down his opponents and pass the exams. As a chunin he lent his medical knowledge to many teams and spent his free time at the Iwagakure hospital where he was set to apprentice under one of their medical shinobi. However that plan changed when the war started and Kirigakure fell.

    When his parents left he feared the worst and the war made those fears a reality when only his mother came back home. Tachiagari struggled to believe that his father was truly dead and when the next wave of shinobi were being sent to join the fight he left with them hoping to find Taka. The horrors of war were not something that he was prepared for and finding his father's corpse shattered him. Violence had taken all those lives, but Tachiagari vowed that he'd save as many lives as he could, even if it meant he'd be the last one to leave the battlefield.


    Clan Info: The Kagayaku clan are farmers and healers in Iwagakure.

Welp T.I.K. bru, T.I.K…
Kaen Haiden



  • Team: <Unassigned>
    Rank: Genin

    Village: Kusagakure

    Personality:
    Kaen Haiden is the epitome of a survivor with a sharp tongue and a cynical outlook to match. Growing up in the chaos and mediocrity of Kusagakure has shaped him into someone who refuses to take life too seriously—mostly because if he did, the weight of it all might just crush him. He’s quick-witted and sarcastic, using humor as a shield against the grim reality he was born into. Despite his jaded exterior, Kaen isn’t entirely devoid of hope; he clings to the idea of beating the odds, even if he thinks it’s a long shot. Practical to a fault, he’s not the type to throw himself into a losing fight or indulge in heroics, but he has a sly way of staying one step ahead of trouble.
    Beneath his grumbling and dark humor lies an undeniable resourcefulness. Kaen knows how to make the best of bad situations, whether it’s scraping together ninjutsu knowledge from ancient scrolls or improvising his way out of a battlefield. He values self-preservation but also has an unspoken loyalty to those who prove themselves competent—rare as that might be in Kusa. While he might call himself a pessimist, deep down he’s a realist with just enough stubborn determination to chase a dream others might deem impossible: survival.


    History:
    Being born in one of the minor villages is a fate no ninja wishes on even his worst enemies—especially not in Kusagakure. The education? Trash. The resources? Barely enough to scrape by, unless you count “whatever the clans scrap together” as a sustainable system. Contracts? Forget about it. The big villages swoop in with their shiny headbands and rock-bottom prices, leaving us to fight over whatever shit-paying missions no one else wants. Escort a merchant who smells like boiled cabbage? Sure. Babysit a daimyo’s bratty kid? Why not. Risk your life for pocket change? Welcome to the club.
    And don’t even get me started on war. If the big boys decide to start swinging their dicks around, your house is either getting flattened, flooded, set on fire, or turned into some twisted memorial for a fight nobody will even remember. Oh, you think you’re safe because the war’s “thousands of miles away”? Cute. The second the village can’t afford to defend itself (so, always), you’re packed up and shipped out to some ass-backwards post in the middle of nowhere, squaring off against some overpowered bastard from one of the Big Five. Made it to genin? Congratulations, you’re now cannon fodder with a forehead protector.

    Life sucks so hard here that we’ve even got our own motto for it: T.I.K. Anytime something goes wrong—and trust me, it always does—we just throw our hands up and mutter, “This is Kusa.” Roof caved in from last week’s typhoon? T.I.K. Lost three teammates because the client didn’t mention the mission was a death trap? T.I.K. Ate something green that may or may not have been alive? You guessed it. T.I.K.

    This village? It’s a punchline, a bad joke nobody’s laughing at. Now guess which poor son of a bitch ended up being born here.

    Don’t need to guess, - it’s me, I’m that poor son of a bitch.

    Name’s Kaen Haiden, proud (ha) member of Kusagakure, a.k.a. the glorified battle royale of the shinobi world. Born into one of the very few clans dumb enough to actually stick around in this glorified death trap. Now, you’d think that being from a clan would at least give me something, right? Like, “Oh wow, Kaen, you must be loaded, respected, maybe you even have a harem of babes fawning over you?”

    Yeah, no. Fuck no.

    For reasons that make no goddamn sense, my clan decided it would be hilarious to see how fast they could wipe themselves off the face of the earth. Every time Kusa stumbles into some war it has no business being in—which is every war ever—my clan's like, “Let’s fucking get ‘em, boys!” and hurls itself headfirst into the meat grinder. It’s like they’ve got a death wish, or maybe they’re just lemmings in disguise. Either way, the family motto might as well be, “You’re a little bitch if you make it to 25.”

    And where does that leave me? The last in line, with some ancient family jutsu nobody remembers how to use properly, a village that barely gives a shit, and a front-row seat to the slow-motion car crash that is Kusa. T.I.K., am I right?

    Now, I get it. Shit seems bleak. And you’d be absolutely right. I mean, Christ, when I was born, my parents didn’t even get a chance to see me cry before they got straight-up eviscerated. Like, handed me off to the nurse, said “take care of him,” and bam—next second, red mist. It wasn’t even some grand sacrifice or noble mission; no, it was just a classic Kusa special: wrong place, wrong time, and some dipshit from another village decided to blow the whole hospital to hell.

    But, believe it or not, there’s technically a way out of this hellhole. Shinobi work.

    Now, hold on a second, I can hear you already: “Didn’t you just say that everyone in your clan got themselves killed and the pay is dogshit?” And yeah, I did. I absolutely did. But there’s one tiny little quirk about Kusa that stands out from the rest of this dumpster fire:

    The retirement benefits.

    See, here’s the thing—Kusa hasn’t actually had a ninja retire in, like, ever. Not once. But thanks to some arcane bylaw buried in the village’s legal crap, all the money that gets funneled into the retirement fund over the years doesn’t get touched. It just sits there, accumulating like some kind of sad jackpot nobody lives long enough to claim.

    And here’s the kicker: if, by some miracle, you manage to make it to retirement age without getting turned into ash, diced into ninja sushi, or becoming an “in loving memory” photo, you get the whole damn fund. Proportionally distributed, sure, but at that point, who cares? That’s free money just sitting there, waiting for some poor sucker to outlive the odds.

    It’s like the world's deadliest lottery. And guess what? I’m buying a ticket.

    And here I go, fresh out of whatever the hell Kusa calls an “academy.” Which, let me tell you, was basically a six-week crash course in “try not to die.” The curriculum? Top-notch. Day one: “Here’s a pointy metal thing.” Day two: “Here’s how to throw said pointy metal thing.” Day three and beyond: “If you see a guy who can shoot fire, teleport, or otherwise defy the laws of physics, run. Pray. You’re probably already dead.”

    That’s it. That’s the entire education system. No strategy, no teamwork drills, no “how to not explode on the battlefield” class. Just a big ol’ “good luck, kid,” and a slap on the back as they toss you into the meat grinder.

    The only saving grace I had was the clan’s personal library—sealed away deep underground, untouched by war, looters, or the general shitshow that is Kusa (shoutout to my ancestors for that one). Thanks to those dusty scrolls, I managed to scrape together a halfway decent understanding of ninjutsu.

    Honestly, if I hadn’t seen what kids from the real villages could do, I might’ve even thought I was pretty damn good. I mean, I was flipping through hand signs, molding chakra, and actually pulling off some legit moves. Felt like a prodigy.

    Then I saw some kid from Konoha make shadows move. Shadows. Like, how the hell do you even fight a guy who can choke you out with your own silhouette? That’s when it hit me—my "pretty good" was their "barely trying."

    So yeah, thanks, ancestors, for the library. But next time, maybe leave me some OP family jutsu so I’m not just playing catch-up with literal shadow puppets.

    You wanna know how I know that?

    Well, like I was saying, just graduated from ninja bootcamp—fresh meat. Got myself a slightly rusty headband, a half-hearted pat on the back, and a big ol’ “Congrats, kiddo.” Then, before I could even celebrate surviving the academy, I was shipped off to fucking Kirigakure.

    T.I.K.

    Apparently, the Mist got invaded by some weird shit—don’t ask me what, because nobody bothered to tell me. Guess whoever claimed Kusa’s good at “intelligence gathering” was running the biggest scam in the shinobi world. For all I know, it could’ve been a rogue swordsman, a giant fish demon, or someone’s pissed-off grandma.

    All I knew was that the second I stepped off the boat, it was chaos. Screaming people, buildings on fire, and me standing there like, “What the hell did I just sign up for?” But hey, welcome to Kusa’s motto: get sent in blind, and pray you don’t die before you figure out what the hell’s going on.

    Unfortunately for the three other poor bastards sent with me as a “team,” they didn’t quite catch that second part of the motto. I kid you not—not even ten seconds in—squish. The lot of them got turned into a fine paste.

    One of them was supposed to be our “Jonin” mentor, too. Yeah, apparently the geniuses in charge decided to copy Konoha’s team model in recent years, because that’s what’s gonna save Kusa. Spoiler: it’s not. The guy didn’t even get to finish his motivational speech.

    “Stick close to me and you’ll—”

    And then boom—pate. Just gone. Like he was never even there. All I could think was, “So much for Jonin-level protection.”

    Honestly, we need some serious quality control on who we let wear the Jonin flak jacket. Maybe start with: Can they survive more than ten seconds in a combat zone? Just a thought.

    Anyway, I stood there for a second, just long enough to fully process the human smoothie that used to be my “team,” and then—well, let’s just say breakfast didn’t stay down. Right there on the floor, courtesy of my stomach.

    After that, I did the only logical thing any sane person would do: I booked it. No heroics, no last stand, just full-on sprinting with the rest of the smart people who realized, “Yeah, this isn’t worth dying for.”

    Kusa might be trash, but it’s not die-on-sight-for-no-reason trash. Well, most of the time.

    Anyway, the plan still stands: I’m getting that goddamn retirement fund. That’s the dream, right? Outlive the bullshit, cash in, and maybe move somewhere that doesn’t smell like desperation and burnt grass.

    But who am I kidding? I’m probably gonna bite it in this massive fuck-off war like everyone else. That’s just how it goes here.

    T.I. Fucking K. man…

    Clan Info:
    The Haiden Clan is an ancient lineage, one of the founding clans that helped establish Kusagakure during the tumultuous era of the First Kages. In their prime, they were renowned for producing some of the few genuinely dangerous Kusa nin, warriors whose names carried weight even beyond the borders of the Hidden Grass. This reputation stemmed primarily from their kekkai hiden techniques, the infamous “Karyūso Jutsus.” These jutsus, a volatile combination of fire and wind chakra, could ignite entire fields of grass into blazing infernos, transforming battlefields into scorched wastelands. While devastatingly effective, these techniques were notoriously difficult to control, often leaving destruction indiscriminately in their wake.

    The Scorchgrass Jutsus weren’t just tools of war; they symbolized the clan’s philosophy of complete dedication, willing to destroy everything to ensure victory. Over time, however, the Haiden Clan’s numbers dwindled as their destructive techniques and seemingly suicidal fighting tendencies often placed them on the frontlines of hopeless battles. Today, the clan is a shadow of its former self, with their once-feared techniques relegated to legend, buried within their underground archives. Yet, their name still carries an air of danger and unpredictability, much like the wildfires they once commanded.

Watch your step!
Ago Aburame



  • Team: <Unassigned>
    Rank: Genin

    Village: Konoha

    Personality: Ago Aburame is by most if not all accounts a perfectly normal lady with absolutely nothing truely outstanding about him. She is courteous, tidy, sweet and caring and in no way shape or form a troublemaker of any kind. A delightfully charming intellect paired with a winning smile that can win over just about anyone who have the privilege of working with and alongside her.

    She is an outright angel and star of the show with grades that are phenominal and the best in the class bar none! If all students could be like her the world would be a better place indeed.

    Her bugs are her babies, and most other bugs too. All bugs really.
    Ago Aburame is a menace who cannot and will not simply leave things alone. There is not a singular nerve she doesn't pluck with well practiced hands like playing a koto whos music is my own screams of torment. Hiding bugs in hair, placing frogs down her squadmate's shirts, creating pitfall traps with stunning swiftness, these are but a few of the many disturbances this little demon has caused. And the list grows by the day!!

    Everyday I see her with that shit eatting grin that tells tale of mischief that is only just waiting to be found!

    I humbly request a strict reprimand of the woman by proper officials and true punishment to set her straight once return to Konoha after the united front, she has already cause a great deal of disturbances and no less than three soiled jumpsuits.

    - Jonin Instructor __________

    Please do not mention she is a rather older genin it is rude.

    History: From birth to her current years she has always been full of laughter. And insects but really the insects are a source of it for her too. Pranks and jokes were her bread and butter as she grew and it was all thanks to her father that she came out this way in truth. For those who know, and knew, the man he was a trickster and a sneak for all his life and it only makes sense that his daughter would end up a little shitheel as well.

    A menace, through and through, it was not enough to torment her friends, it seemed as if nobody was beyond her scope of hijinx. If there was a wall, she had colored a butt on it. If there was a fancy statue? She gave it a new moustache. A salt shaker? Replaced with sugar. Sugar? Flour. Pepper? She liked pepper so she left that alone. Her whims were always never destructive, for a good prank was never truely so. A good prank is one that one can easily ammend! Confuse! Don't abuse!

    but, of course, this has not made her very popular with those who dislike such things... Always told to grow up and behave herself... These people were just so boring... And there was alot of boring people during this who united front thing. Everyone was so scared and at each other's throat she barely could make a fly paper trap without somebody talking to her like she was going to kill them all!

    Turns out she didn't need to do that, now that the Shadow were on them... Stiff upper lip, you can cry for those we lost later! Her dad always told her that "Don't cry if you can still fix it." After all. So shes not gonna cry. Not yet.

    Not till she has the bastard's head.

    Shes also been a genin for awhile, side jobs and being a lil shit have kinda made promotions... hard.

    Clan Info: Aburame, They are the weird chakra insect people. You know em, you love em, you are terrified of em.

Rikiko Nonoba

I'm gonna sleep so good after I kick your ass!
Rikiko



  • Team: <Unassigned>
    Rank: Genin

    Village: Sunagakure

    Personality: Despite the twists and turns Rikiko has faced throughout her life, Rikiko makes a conscious effort to try and be a positive voice in the world. Although it's an obvious facade, given away by exhaustion Rikiko can't help but express more often than not. Due to the one-tailed beasts influence within her, Rikiko can rarely sleep without having nightmares. However, her clan taught her a way to bypass this. If she works herself to exhaustion, the nightmares are less likely to occur. This led to her developing a neurotic habit of always tiring herself out before she slept. Because of her dedication to this routine, she's a bit self-centered in the way she prioritizes her schedule over most anyone else. As her stamina improves, the more time out of her day her routine takes.



    History: When Rikiko was born, the One-tailed beast Shukaku, was sealed within her as an infant. It was an unplanned event, yet still one performed numerous times by the Nonoba clan. Due to their seemingly innate ability to soothe the beast, they were often excellent candidates to be the one-tails jinchuuriki. Rikiko however, was a distant cousin. After being practically stolen from her parents, Rikiko was returned to them two days later with a beast sealed within her.

    Aside from reoccurring nightmares of getting stuck in quicksand, Rikiko had a fairly normally childhood for a time. She made lots of friends, went to school, impressed her teachers, and got addicted to reading books as soon as she learned to read. One of the earliest memories Rikiko can recall is being in a library, and marveling at all the books, and how much there was to learn about the world. There she spent hours upon hours reading nonstop, forcing her parents to eventually drag her home with another pile of books. That was the night she discovered her favorite book, a large book detailing the adventures of a fictional ninja who traveled the world in search of true love. It absolutely captured Rikiko's heart. She couldn't put it down, only stopping when her eyes finally gave out and she eventually drifted off to sleep.

    As Rikiko got older, her nightmares had gotten so bad that she could hardly sleep. Being the one-tails jinchuuriki, it was difficult to find a doctor willing to come anywhere near Rikiko. After being turned away by the village hospital and numerous other doctors, they finally brought her to the Nonoba Clan. After briefly examining her, they stated that the one-tails within her was trying to take over her body, and that the nightmares meant he was succeeding. They offered to teach Rikiko how to control him, but stated that she'd have to live at the Nonoba compound from then on. Her parents begrudgingly agreed, not knowing what was in store for their daughter.

    At the Nonoba Clan compound, Rikiko learned that the easiest way to ward of the one-tails and his nightmares was to exhaust herself to the point she nearly passed out. Whether it be through chakra fatigue or physical fatigue made no difference, as long as she worked herself to the bone she could sleep almost entirely nightmare free. Unfortunately, Rikiko hated working out. It took years for her to start taking the training even a little bit seriously. Even with the nightmares, Rikiko still struggled to actually work hard enough to tire herself out. Compounded with a lack of sleep, Rikiko's conditioned only seemed to get worse. Only when the Nonoba Clan revealed their kekkai genkai too her did she suddenly gain an interest in her lessons.

    Thus began Rikiko's first introduction to ninjutsu at the age of ten. Her instructors had long blabbed at her about chakra, but now they were teaching her how to be a ninja like in her favorite book she yearned for. Rikiko was a gifted, almost even a prodigy with how quickly she took to magnet release. When showed iron sand, it immediately became her new obsession.

    At the age of 12, war broke out, and Rikiko found herself being told she needed to be prepared to fight. Shocked, Rikiko tried to decline, knowing full well she had no place fighting, as she had hardly mastered the basic skills a shinobi should know. The Nonoba Clan supported her, but with enough pressure from the village Rikiko was dubbed a genin and assigned to a squad. As a fresh genin, Rikiko and her squad were nowhere near the brunt of the action. Yet even still, tragedy struck. The Shogun's forces ambushed the camp where the sand genin were located. Her squad's jonin was killed nearly immediately, causing her squad to flee in panic before the call to retreat was even given. Each of them ran in different directions as the Shogun's forces poured in.

    Rikiko managed to regroup with a handful of other ninja and make it to a rendezvous point. Sadly, Rikiko hasn't seen her squad mates since. As guilt and shame pour over her, she tries to gather herself for her next orders.



    Clan Info: The very first one-tails jinchuuriki was of the Nonoba Clan. Since then, the one-tails has been passed down to another within the clan when the previous vessel passes away. When the Nonoba Clan isn't monitoring the one-tails, they're busy monitoring other important village assets. With the outbreak of war however, the clan is stretched thin.

Irezumi Uta

"Yeah, the name is what we do, want a tattoo? No? Heh alright then."
Irezumi Uta



  • Team: <Unassigned>
    Rank: Chunin

    Village: Konohagakure

    Personality: Uta is a tomboy as most would call it. Full of vigor and ready to fight via the Clan's special Hiden skills or via fist, she's not one given to running from a fight and prefers a straight up brawl or an ambush leading to said brawl. Known to be cynical, straight forward, informal and honest to a great extent, she has little patience for formalities. Oddly she can also be encouraging and will take to the frontline to give others a chance to strike, becoming a stalwart fighter and tank and taking damage to herself. Though some says that is only as she enjoys combat.

    Enjoying her craft she finds it unfortunate that most people seem to equate tattoos to crime or sealing in their home region thanks to a few bad actors, she is rather skilled at using the needle and ink to make works of art upon request, or via using the secrets of her clan, to mend, add, or edit her own tattoos which for the clan is a part of their body. In regard to the enemy, Uta is for a good fight but finds it valuable to finish an enemy off as quickly as possible, she finds torture, to be a waste of time that gives a defeated enemy a chance to rise up. Given her interests, Uta is comfortable around animals and insects that most people are not.

    Of note, to her the ideal way to rest up or unwind for at least a day is bottles of sake and visiting a Yakiniku restaurant. On the subject of the war, she wishes the enemy would just go away but knows it won't be so simple or easy.

    History: Uta is a scion of the Irezumi Clan, with its particular brand of Hiden techniques would have much to rejoice when her chakra type was determined to be able to tap into steel nature, finding their Ink skill would have a great medium to work within her. With this element in place, Uta's life was set in stone to turn her into a kunoichi to bring the village's wrath to bear. With all this in play Uta was used to having and receiving new tattoos, and imbedded with small amounts of steel with the organic ink being injected into her body.

    Because of this and the history of such markings being little in the way of good news, Uta would find grave difficulties in making friends but would not falter. In adversary she continued onwards committing to the mission of the Irezumi clan and to gain some measure of peace and renown for herself. With enlistment into the Acadamy she would graduate into the Genin program with little issue other than her attitude, placed on a team with other hard cases, the group would go on to fulfil a number of missions successfully and a few years later would pass the Chunin exam.

    But that is when everything started to fall apart, bit by bit, and then all at once. With the invasion of the Shogun and his expeditionary force it was retreat after retreat, ending in the loss of Konohagakure, destruction of her team and now a desperate action left in place to stop the Army of the Shogun. Her home lost, clan members dead or scattered with the bulk of the population now little more than refugees. But not all was so bleak, maybe to regain what was lost, maybe answers to who the Shogun was, or where these forces were from. She had made her own oaths upon entry into the Shinobi Corps...

    Now was the time to reclaim it, or soon, no matter how long that soon might end up being.

    Clan Info: The Irezumi clan were once members of organized crime till the Second Hokage led a punitive force against the clan to bring it into the fold. While the purpose of the clan was to shift in a full 180 from what it had been with gratitude, the culture of the family did not change much. Unquestioningly loyal, the Irezumi Clan members are known to be outspoken, rude and get on famously well with lower members of society. With their tattoos and Hiden skills, they have found value as undercover shinobi and infiitrators to regions where a weapon or proper bearing may do more harm than good.

    The Clan's Hiden skill is a secret but to those in the know it seems the clan has learned to imbued charka and elemental support into their full body tattoos, using the ink to become living weapons, with effects varying across the natural paths, the Irezumi clan is known for its flexibility in what just is the core skill of the group. What is known is that training and introduction into skin meeting Ink begins early into one's childhood and the knowledge to carry out the procedure and its implementation is known only within the Clan.

    In the case of Uta her body is laced with the special clan secret ink and mixed with grains of steel that she can use to manipulate the Ink to its full potential and in a fashion agreeable to herself. The ink is empowered by her own chakra reserves and can be recovered barring a few situations which necessitates her inking herself to recover the lost material.

If something's worth doing, it's worth doing right. Also if its not worth doing it should still be done right, doing things incorrectly is totally unacceptable under any circumstances
charactername



  • Team: <Unassigned>
    Rank: genin

    Village: Konohagakure

    Personality: Have you ever met a Nara? patient, contemplative, some might even say lazy but possessed of a brilliant strategic mind? Shikane is not like that. Oh she's not unintelligent, she's even pretty smart, it's just a very straightforward kind of intelligence. If you want someone to quickly and efficiently solve a problem, Shikane is your girl, if you want someone to play elaborate mind games with or concoct an intricate Rube Goldberg device of a plan to make your enemy defeat themselves Shikane is probably going to just get annoyed and hit you. Shikane is also energetic, even restless to a degree that makes her the odd one out in a clan of laid back, watch the world go by types. This has left Shikane with a bit of a chip on her shoulder, a burning desire to improve and prove herself against what she feels is the scorn of her clansmen. That perception is mostly imagined to be fair. The rest of the Nara think Shikane is a bit awkward and unnecessarily blunt at times, but most of them think fondly of her

    History: Shikane's birth put her clan in a somewhat awkward position. The Nara clan have long had a special relationship with their sister clans the Akimichi and Yamanaka and that special relationship is symbolized by the formation of an Ino-Shika-Cho formation from each generation of the clan heirs. When Shikane and her twin brother Shikaru were born nearly simultaneously, the clans ended up with one Ino, one Cho and two Shikas. Awkward. There was some debate about the matter, but eventually it was decided the Nara clan would contribute whichever twin was most well suited for the position to the trio, while the other twin would join a regular genin squad. For almost as long as she could remember, Shikane wanted to be in the trio. She was a serious, awkward child who both wanted to uphold her clan's legacy and struggled to interact with other children without some kind of official structure to support her. Shikane's brother on the other hand thought the whole thing sounded like a pain in the ass and would have much rather coasted by with less scrutiny in a basic genin squad. While Shikane threw herself whole heartedly into her training, her brother whiled away his time skipping classes, napping and playing shogi.

    Sadly, Shikane's hard work came to naught. Over time it became apparent that Shikane had little to no natural aptitude for the clan's hiden techniques. Although Shikane managed, by sheer dint of effort to infuse her chakra into the shadows, the results was simply wrong, too stiff and sharp instead the sinuous, precise tendril it was supposed to be. In addition Shikane's shadow's completley lacked the paralysing element that was so important in setting up the Nara's famous strategies and elaborate combination jutsu with the rest of the trio. To the dismay of both twins, Shikaru was named as the Nara member of the ino-Shika-Cho formation and Shikane was shuffled off to a much less prestigious team whose members she knew nothing about.

    Before Shikane could really come to terms with her disappointment, the Shinobi world was plunged into war with the sudden arrival of the Army of Shadows. With the enemy advancing on the land of Fire's borders, the Nara clan were resolved to do their part for the will of fire and contributed heavily to the forces arrayed in defence of the village, although they did arrange for their newly minted genin to be assigned to relatively safe auxilary positions, delivering messages, checking on supply caches and other such important but relatively safe roles. But even the vaunted strategic accumen of the Nara failed to foresee how badly the battle of Hakari ridege would go.

    As the frontlines of the allied forces were forced into retreat, the previously safe rear positions found themselves under threat of enemy forces. Shikane's squad came under attack from an Army of Shadows patrol force and her Jonin instructor ordered the children to retreat while he lead the enermy forces away. Without a solid rerlationship with her teammates, Shikane was unable to coordinate her escape with them and became seperated. Because she had diligently memorized the local terrain and the allied positions nearby, Shikane was able to make her way back to one of the pre-arranged fall back positions but she did so alone and, for the first time in her life, totally unsure of what she wanted or what she should be doing.

    Clan Info: The Nara are a well regarded pillar of Konohagakure. With their flanks secured by their long standing triple alliance with the Akimmichi and Yamanaka clans, the Nara have been able to steadily develop thier influence and reputation without aggressive moves and have few internal enemies. Famed for their mysterious shadow imitation techniques, the Nara also have a reputation for strategic accumen and contribute an unusually large percentage of jonin occupying leadership and analyst roles, further cemeniting their reputation within the leaf.

"War what is it good for? Social advancement apparently]
Masumi Hyuuga


  • Team: <Unassigned>
    Rank: Chuunin

    Village: Konoha

    Personality: Once upon a time Masumi was a repressed young teen masking his festering bitterness with his lot in life behind gallows humour and small acts of hidden vengeance via pranks or sarcastic commentary and burying himself deeply in the work of a ninja to distract himself and seeking out missions as far from 'home' as possible.

    With the sudden change in his circumstances Masumi has a new sense of hopefulness about his life but retains a sense of caution that his dubious good fortune may be snatched away if he doesn't play his cards carefully. Knowing the precariousness of his position Masumi is willing to lie, cheat, steal and kill

    History: Having the misfortune to be born into the branch family of the Hyuuga clan Masumi was, according to clan tradition branded with a cursed seal and raised in servitude to the leading main family. Chafing under the shackles imposed on him by the way things are Masumi threw himself into his role as a shinobi viewing assignments outside the village as a temporary escape regardless of any potential danger.

    When the Shogunate forces invaded the proud Hyuuga stood at the forefront of the not-so-allied forces with Masumi accompanying the heir to the clan. In the chaos of the battle the main family outside of those too old to fight were all but wiped out with many of the branch family dying to protect them, Masumi himself carried the mortally wounded heir from the battlefield.

    In the wake of the disaster what little leadership of the decimated clan that managed to escape the fall of the Land of Fire scrambled to secure a future for the once noble clan and selected Masumi from among the survivors as the new heir to the clan and used a long buried method to remove his cursed seal.

    Clan Info: The Hyūga clan are descendants from the Ōtsutsuki clan, specifically from Hamura Ōtsutsuki's lineage. As a result, they are also distant cousins of the Uchiha, Senju, Uzumaki, and Kaguya clans. They are considered to be one of, if not currently, the most powerful clan in Konohagakure. Their fame and prowess stretches far and wide, leading others to both praise and covet their abilities.

 
Rengetsu Amesawa

full

... huh? ...
Rengetsu




  • Team: <Unassigned>
    Rank: Chunin
    Village: Kirigakure (prior to being invaded)

    Personality:

    Tall, lanky and garish. He is generally percieved to be a social outcast and an awkward individual, many of todays citizens of Kirigakure don't really have a positive impression of him. As someone that operates at his own pace, Rengetsu has quite often been described in a manner befitting a lazy river. He moves at his own pace despite everything else and seemingly appears to be unfazed by any significant changes. He is just there, going about his own business at his own leisure.

    Truth be told, his awkwardness stems from events during his time in the academy. He is generally quite terrible at communicating with people at a sociable level, often times being blissfully unaware of the social cues and unwritten rules of society. As such, he quite often appears to be quite aloof and uncaring and even unapproacble for those that dare to. Do not expect to get comfort from Rengetsu in the form of sugary words of encouragment as he is far more likely to simply tell you to just get on with it.

    He may also come across as being quite invasive in how he acts or with what he says. Personal space and privacy are concepts that are quite foreign to him. He can and will say something that may cause an issue for people without actually intending to do so. In this regard he is quite straightforward and blunt; though recent years have seen a slight improvement in how he acts. Funnily enough, he struggles to grasp the concept of sarcasm, but can be quite unintentionally sarcastic himself.

    It was under the advice of one of his squad mates that he first adorned the smiling frog helmet. Given his imposing figure, they had suggessted that he put in the effort to try and make himself seem less aloof and instead try and smile a bit more when off the clock. Alas, being out of practice had meant he had nothing but a forced smile, one creepy enough to make children cry. To compromise, the smiling frog mask was gifted to him before their untimely demise.

    However, the mask would only have the affect of making him appear more awkward than he already was.

    Contrary to the social awkwardness, his rather bland and somewhat unemotive demeanour however has made him someone of a hit for his instructors. Considering the events in the past with his squad, he feels like there is a need to prove himself more so than before. There is rarely a time when he will question the orders. As if a switch has been flicked on, Rengetsu seems to come alive during missions. His actions are more efficient than usual and his words are much sharper. He is truly in his element when 'on duty' as it is during such periods where he feels comfortable in his own skin. He also puts in more effort due to the circumstances surrounding his former squadmates demise.

    History:

    A descendant of the Amesawa main family, Rengetsu was initially raised as a sheltered child until he was old enough to enrol in the Kirigakure academy. Treated like a prodigy of the Amesawa with the intention of being strong enough to contend for the clan head position; his early years were spent being home-schooled in both his standard education as well as learning the secrets behind the clans hiden technique. As such, he seldom had the luxury of interacting with others his own age; even those of branch families who were told to maintain their distance from him so as to not be a distraction.

    Due to this, when he finally came of age and was allowed to enrol in the academy he would find himself losing the luxury of being treated favourably and be given a harsh reality check. Given the academy had students from every caste of the village hierarchy, it was no surprise that those of lesser standing would take this opportunity to throw their weight around; to give Rengetsu a reality check.

    Tall, lanky and rather garish for his age; he had quickly become an easy target for the other students; someone they could take advantage off given he looked 'different' from most of the other kids. It would only get worse when Rengetsu started to appear sweaty for seemingly no reason; an unfortunate consequence of him practicing the Hiden Exudation technique of the clan.

    Already lacking the social skills to interact with others his age and now a target for bullying; Rengetsu's demeanour would quickly become apathetic. Despite initially looking forward to finally being able to befriend others his age; the reality of his situation would be nothing more than soul crushing. He was the kid forced to play the bad guy on the playground, the one that all the good shinobi attacked in order to protect the village, it was either that or being left out completely during the games. For almost the entirety of his academy years, he would keep to himself; focusing on his studies and in particular the control over his clans hiden. The experience of the past had been rather traumatic. This would further hamper the growth of his social skills.

    With most of his time now devoted to graduating as a shinobi and finally attaining the genin rank, Rangetsu's dedication to his studies would undoubtedly catch the eyes of some superiors; thus when he finally earned the headband he would be placed into a squad of his own. it would be here that he would finally make friends; after all it was forced upon them to get to know one another in order to function as a unit. Gradually the trio would come to an understanding with one another; with a particular member even going as far as to show concern for his status as a social outcast. Certain periods when not on missions, they would work on his social skills in an attempt to at least get people to feel comfortable around him. Though their stumbling block would be during their self imposed mission of getting him to smile.

    Traumatizing a baby with one of his attempts at smiling had left quite the negative affect on Rengetsu to the point that he had locked himself away in his room for several days. This would be the introduction of the smiling frog helmet. With both of his team mates feeling rather guilty at putting Rengetsu out of his comfort zone and making a baby cry; they had sought a way to try and salvage the hard work he had already put in.

    Feeling guilty, one of his team mates would attempt to make amends and with her own goofy intentions would purchase the smiling frog helmet. Given it was her favourite animal and the helmet was indeed silly she had sought to try and force Rengetsu to smile naturally by making herself look silly. A task that would surprisingly succeed as Rengetsu could not help but chuckle.

    Alas, this would be the only time she would see the smile. Their next mission had taken a turn for the worst; resulting in their instructor having to retire from active duty as well as the death of both squad mates. Unbeknownst to Rengetsu, their instructor had been paid a hefty sum by his father to prioritize his safety over the others and because of this he had left the other two genin behind; stalling their pursuers so that they would survive.

    This would once again lead to Rengetsu being ostracized. Rumours would spread about that ill fated mission among the other ninja; to the point that other squads were reluctant to take him on. In an attempt to salvage his career as a shinobi, he would be taken into the Anbu of Kirigakure and given a new identity as is the standard practice. Though even this would be cut short; given the sudden invasion of the nation. Forced into the war, he would be tasked with escorting civilians out of the village in an attempt to seek refuge in other nations.

    Now, he finds himself in Konoha. News of Kirigakures demise would reach his ears within several days of his own arrival.


    Clan Info:
    The Amesawa clan have been affiliated with Kirigakure since the Warring States period. A 2nd class clan that allied with the Kirigakure founding families, they hold a decent amount of respect within the nation. In addition they have contributed countless talented shinobi to the hidden village.

Riku Arashi

Kiss my ass, brown-noser.
Riku Arashi



  • Team: <Unassigned>
    Rank: Genin

    Village: Konohagakure

    Personality: Riku is a fiery, brash, and headstrong individual who doesn’t back down from a challenge. His reputation as a troublemaker stems from his tendency to stand up to authority, regardless of the consequences. Despite his rough exterior, Riku possesses a strong sense of justice and is fiercely loyal to his friends and allies. Beneath the bravado lies a deep-seated insecurity that he fears failing the people who depend on him, driving his relentless determination.

    Riku’s charisma often draws others to him, even as his impulsive behavior occasionally gets him into trouble. He values honesty and hates deceit, sometimes to the point of bluntness. Though he projects confidence, those who know him well understand that his brashness hides a thoughtful and empathetic soul.

    History: Riku grew up in a small district of Konohagakure, notorious for its high crime rate and economic struggles. His family operated a modest dojo, teaching self-defense to civilians. Riku’s father was a stern but loving man who instilled in him the importance of standing up for others. When his father passed away protecting the village during an attack, Riku’s worldview shifted—he vowed to become strong enough to protect everyone he cared about.

    Struggling with grief and anger, Riku often found himself in fights with other kids in the village. Though his intentions were usually noble—defending someone being bullied or standing up to unfair treatment—his methods earned him a delinquent’s reputation. Over time, he developed a reputation as the neighborhood’s unofficial protector, both feared and respected.

    When he entered the Academy, Riku’s raw talent and unorthodox methods stood out. Though he clashed with instructors over his rebellious attitude, his determination and unique perspective earned him grudging respect. Now a Genin, Riku is eager to prove himself—not just as a shinobi but as someone capable of making a difference.

    Clan Info: The Arashi family is not a prominent clan but is respected for their mastery of unarmed combat and their contributions to the village’s defense. Their motto, “Strength through honor,” reflects their dedication to protecting others.

 
Yuxuan Tokage

XH2Lj7X1_400x400.jpg

Rain persists, so I do too
Yuxuan



  • Team: <Unassigned>

    Rank: Chunin

    Village: Rain

    Personality: Being born with a silver spoon did not in fact make Yuxuan an entitled brat. That all ceases to be a thing when you witness and escape several assassination attempts that are only aimed at you because you're associated to x. Yuxuan may have been raised a noble, but he was not given the chance to live like a pompous and lavish aristocrat. He lived a real noble life. The drama, the chaos.

    What he has is the ability to act as disrespectful as one and put up the masks too but in truth he is a open-minded person, humble at core. He knows how to be light hearted, jocular, some might say too much that it is unfitting. A touch vulgar, slightly playful, yet equally hard nosed. In reality, he’s keenly aware of his place, and has learned to pick his battles carefully.

    That doesn't mean he won't sock you in the jaw for crossing him one way or another.


    History: One does not merely just remove a legendary hero from their seat of power.

    Lord Banri held a position that even when he was causing political issues there was a hesitancy to do anything but hope he would do what the record said he could: turn things around.

    Hard to do that though when it's uncovered you've been ‘silencing’ your friends for your own goals. Civil war broke out. Some believed Banri's actions were necessary evils, others said he could shove it. Violence broke out and ended quickly but it wasn't truly over. Yuxuan was merely an infant when the last fires were still going. Too young to fight, wasn't even Genin age and yet old enough to have a semblance of understanding things had gone wrong. Loyalists, hired goons, the criminally aligned don't just quit on the legendary Electric Demon, especially when he was lining your pockets with money and losing him meant losing your benefits, your connections. Even as Meika took her earned seat of power, complications still rose. Yuxuan wasn't present during those moments though. Sent away to the Land of Lightning with many others on the disguise of being tasked to accompany a diplomatic mission where he would continue his training in the Hidden Cloud, safely, under the guidance of tutors, relatives and friends.

    This time away from home and the journey back some years later would all be eye opening experiences. Being born with a silver spoon didn't blind him to world politics, in fact his exposure due to his connections made him more aware.

    Returning home as a 8 y.o., Yuxuan would continue his early training and at the same time experience several minor skirmishes come rushing to put an end to Meika and her allies, threats she squashed repeatedly and then would actively hunt on campaigns. These events are what allowed him to see the divisions in those that shared similar status as the Tokage. And how it was carefully portrayed to the public there was a united front, when sometimes those very members couldn't seem to stand each other.

    Growing up in this kind of environment meant you either were a fish or a shark. Hidden Village politics was messy business no more than national or global. Yuxu took the advice of his elders, carving his own views instead of allowing himself to be easily swayed by mass opinion or the celebrity ones made by his peers. This mentality made him somewhat disliked among a few in the circles around his status, and also led to him making the choice when it came time, to not tap into the gift within his genetics, and instead go a different route. Something that would also be highly scrutinized given he was seen as a precocious child.

    Entering Amegakure, Yuxuan’s early training allowed him to excel. By the time he had graduated as a Genin he was 11, and being scouted to join the Nightshades, something that couldn't be bought through status, but had to be earned as Meika preferred. Being scouted into the intelligence branch provided Yuxuan an opportunity that would catch his attention immediately. The chance to work outside of Rain. Hunt down threats of all kinds beyond regular work, work with teams from other nations.

    Meika had not only established better relations but created the opportunity for Ame Shinobi to expand their relations with their fellows by working in co-op missions. This was a chance to get out of the bubble, Yuxuan took it immediately. He wanted to explore the world, step out of the politics of home, and did precisely that.

    Nightshade missions carried a higher edge of danger. Not all, given his team was made of a Four Man squad with one Jounin as the leader. Most were only slightly more dangerous, others had surprises. Yuxuan went to Sound, went to Lighting, travelled to Leaf, and hopped from country to country every now and then whenever he was required. At times he remained at a place for months, sometimes it was a year. Sometimes he would be with his team, other times he would be required to split and work with others. By the time he took the Chunin exam he was more than ready to put all that experience of travelling to use. At 14 he became a Chunin. By this time he had also gained a rival in one of his cousins, Young-Sun of the Ye. They rivaled each other in the paths they had taken, and Young-Sun was a competitive individual. That particular trait pushed Yuxuan to work hard given the opinionated nature of his home and the fame of people he was closely linked to.

    It was unfortunate that just short of Mist’s fall by the Shadow Army that news came of some urgent situation back home but at the time he wasn't cleared to have access to what exactly was going on. His father had said it would be handled in a transmitted message, his superiors told him to focus on assisting Mist allies. Whatever had unfolded in Rain was ultimately ignored for his duty. Most of the work recovering injured or tracking down and freeing captured.

    When the Leaf was targeted some time later, Yuxuan would play a role in assisting in an important surprise assault planned that would be used to lead the enemy away and delay for others to assist in an evacuation effort. That would be the same place he would get another scar on his face before the plan was considered a success and his unit would retreat.

    It was after reuniting with Allied Shinobi Forces that he would be summoned in a private message to be told the news he had been denied of a new situation back home.

    The electric demon had escaped not long after the Shadow Army’s attack on Leaf. His father had been gravely injured, a cousin and older brother missing in the chaos.

    Implications as he was told, that someone in Meika’s circles had cut a deal that earned a weakened Banri his ticket out. The implications being it was linked to not just his family but others too. If the knowledge did anything, it merely provided him a goal in finding the truth. One he was sure this war would help provide.


    Clan Info: The Tokage aren’t a typical clan. More famously known for being powerful Shinobi that excel in chakra control and ingenuity in applying Nature Chakras. The clan itself grew in number from assimilating orphans and refugees from other lands into their number after settling in the Land of Rain. It is through this intermingling that some members are known to have access to a unique Plant Kekkei Genkai that is dormant until activated. Their actual fame stems from the fame of Shinobi among their number in their actions in the 2nd and 3rd wars, as well as being considered skilled users of nature chakra.

    In the present, the Tokage are divided among allies, something not well known. In spite of their differences with peers they remain one of the most powerful parties in the nation with direct connections to the Daimyo of the land. It is said a few of their numbers directly play a part in the security of the Rain Daimyo. They are known to posssss major political or trade related roles and essentially are at the top of the social class in their nation.

Kasumi Sunemizuki

”Fair? Oho~ You poor dear. I only win.”
Kasumi Sunemizuki



  • Team: <Unassigned>
    Rank: Chunin

    Village: Mist

    Personality: Kasumi is a product of her environment. She was born to an aristocratic family, and so she speaks with a silky voice and silver tongue, almost always wearing a polite smile and acting with playful cordiality. Kasumi is pleasant and will converse, joke and banter, however, one should not forget the nature of her clan being that of military enforcers.

    It is the very same upbringing, after all, that has resulted in a certain ego within the girl, and one which has been damaged by the fall of Kirigakure. Despite her appearance and mannerisms, in combat scenarios she can show a more brutish side, where her polite smile and playful tone can adopt a more arrogant and domineering grin. This ugly side of hers has predated the fall of Kirigakure and is a result of her upbringing and arrogance regarding her bloodline, however it was noticeably worsened with their clan’s effectiveness being called into question following the village’s fall.

    History: Kasumi was an heiress of the Sunemizuki clan, one of the major aristocratic families of Kirigakure, known for their impressive chakra control and ability to manifest their chakra as entities or beasts. Kasumi of note was born with an impressive chakra control despite her young age and, given this, was pampered from birth and treated mostly like a princess.

    While the Sunemizuki constructs and chakra control made them fairly adept shinobi, many of the clan were groomed to enter the military and many become military leaders or special forces. Kasumi was no exception and was brought up with the intention of rising through the typical shinobi system. Kasumi reached the rank of Genin with relative ease, then ushered into a team and eventually qualified for and passed the Chunin exams with few complications.

    Unfortunately, it wasn’t but a few years after, that Kirigakure fell. Many of the clan’s strongest members were elsewhere on assignments and those that were in Kirigakure were unable to overcome the Shadow Army’s coordination, numbers, and technology. Instead, they opted to escort out nobility, leaders, and other important personnel from the city.

    The Sunemizuki clan was not wiped out, not close. They were still far more maneuverable than the Shadow Army, even if outgunned and outnumbered. However, losing the city and retreating did cause harm to their reputation. While not stripped of their status, the clan is especially motivated to rebuild

    Clan Info: The Sunemizuki clan are otherwise known as the clan of living chakra. This is because of their Kekkei Genkai which allows them to manifest their chakra as creatures or entities. Different from traditional summons, these creations do not have jutsus of their own, however the user can manifest their chakra to different forms and have often been known to form chakra around their hands as blades rather than employ a kunai or weapon for melee.

    Their family have ties to nobles of the Daimyo in which long ago, the nobles effected a breeding program of strong shinobi with particular Kekkei Genkai which eventually gave rise to the Sunemizuki’s “living chakra”. These shinobi were plenty battle-tested given the Land of Water’s many civil wars, which lead to their current status within Kirigakure.
