I have received an inquiry concerning a Chuunin Exam event and have recruited Warren to assist in GMing such a thing should interest in participation warrant such activities. Hopefully participation will require us to recruit more GMs so think about participating in that manner as well.
What follows is a proposed outline. Please advertise this to all your clan members and have them either post to the the forum thread or pm Kayenta Moenkopi for inclusion. Perhaps you have a dusty alt that you want to use in the exam? Then by all means break them out and get them ready to be tested! If we get enough people to join in, this will then be a go. However, even just a handful of participants will warrant the event in the interest of seeing those individuals have opportunity to rank up their characters through public rp.
- Stage one retcons recommendation by his/her sensei as well as passing a written exam. Hence the hopeful has already met this requirement and is eligible to become a chuunin should they complete the exam.
- Stage two will be a stylized scavenger hunt to two of the five villages for item retrieval. This will be done individually with a GM to lead the rp in order to permit the individual to proceed through the exam without being hampered by the inactivity of others. Those who do not complete this phase will not pass the exam. RP lock will not occur.
- Stage three of the exam will be individual battle against another player character. This will proceed through elimination matches with one grande prize winner of distinction. However, those who go inactive will be replaced by a GM character controlling their end of the match and shall not pass the exam. Again, RP lock will not occur.
All players who acquire both assigned items, and complete one match against an opponent
[not win, but complete] shall pass the exam and become Chuunin. The one player who winds up being the ultimate victor will have bragging rights and some as yet to be determined prize consisting of an RP item, a customized jutsu scroll, and perhaps some DP. In that event a fund raiser will be hosted to make this a prize worth striving toward.
Note toward village posting: Each of the two items for the scavenger hunt will be in a location outside the five main villages. Only the initial posts - one from the GM and one from the participant - will be placed in the main board before moving off to an agreed upon alternate location.
Look on this as an opportunity for participants to establish, through public rp, the events surrounding their rise to Chuunin and how that was achieved. It's also a great way to show the Lords of the realm, which ninja are worth hiring and to promote business for the ninja village.
Slated to occur over Winter Break in December 2015. Actual dates to be announced at a later time.
Note concerning powers: Since you are testing for Chuunin, we really don't want tons of OP-ness here. Thinking about one KG, no EMG, no May Fly, no Kamui, no sage mode/senjutsu/senninka...that sort of thing. So if your character has that, it is not usable during this test of skills. HOWEVER: just because your rank is not higher than chuunin does not mean you are weak, more than likely it only means you have not bothered to test for promotion within the ranks.

I like the idea; believe me, I do.
My question is, how many people actually RP as a gennin anymore? It just seems like villages just rank up people based on general activity in the clan and on the village board, or upon request when entering the clan itself.
If there are a good number of people who can actually participate, then awesome. Sign me up as a GM even. Though I am a bit skeptical.
-
I would like my alt, Shinkiro, to join this chuunin exam, mainly to build some RP history with him.
No one actually RP as a genin but some people really don't have ranks. Everyone has kage-level chakra, but majority of bios I have read don't include rank. >.>
For some people, rank is kinda 'meaningless'. For example, it would not make sense to have Mei enter the chuunin exam. A 8+ yr character with full resets, various abilities, etc. entering would not make sense. >.>
But for other characters that are relatively new and would like to build a RP history from the ground up, this would be a good chance for them to do that. It would be a start.
Plus, if you have an alt that would like to bring out, this is a chance for that as well.
-
I'd be in favor for this.
-
If anyone wants to hire someone to cause some "fireworks" at the event I am open for business. 8)
-
There are a few Genin in Kumogakure that may be interested in this. It sounds like a fantastic idea!
-
I offer my assistance in being a proctor and a GM.
And, so long as everyone is on their best behavior, Kirigakure has a potential interest in being one of the nations required to visit for the treasure hunt.
There may also be a few of ours that want to take this test. I will ask around!
-
Will need to stress limitations on some things.
-
Such as what things?
-
Will need to stress limitations on some things.
Resets? Abilities? Places to travel? Outside assistance? Amount of time taken on turns?
I imagine you might mean any limitations on anything needs to be stressed, since so many RPers from different backgrounds have the potential to be participating here.
-
Probably the most that I am hearing from people through pms on SL is that it is a Chuunin Exam. So a limit on certain things. The most frequently mentioned restrictions have been things like Kamui and Mayfly. I think that can be discussed individually without coming up with a huge list of do's and don'ts before hand though. Since we have some interest in those who would like to help out, we should probably get to work and see if we can find some people who would like to take the exam.
I would like to put in one character, but haven't decided on who. Most are too old or too young. Probably Raikon Kyte of Suna, a little old but he certainly needs more experience than just tending the messenger/hunting birds of Suna. Besides, it kind of irks him that his little sister is already a special jounin!
Places to travel will be determined once the general outline of items to retrieve have been decided upon and most likely be randomly determined for reach participant. It would be hardly any fun for a Suna character to be seeking out items in their own country. We were thinking they could be within any of the five main countries. Six actually because Oto would not be excluded, of course. Hoshi is problematic and should be excluded due to the account's accessing ability for that board.
-
Could places like Ame be included? Granted, it's no village board, but the clan halls might could hold a few Exam visitors of sorts while they participate. Same for any other non-village-board village-clan that might would serve as an interesting outlet for this.
-
I had not considered that, but I do not see why not. People who wanted to open their clans/lands up for RP of this sort sounds fine to me.

In the Naruto OVA, "Chūnin Exam on Fire! Naruto vs. Konohamaru!" (http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Ch%C5%ABnin_Exam_on_Fire!_Naruto_vs._Konohamaru!), Naruto was forbidden to use Sage Mode to make it more fair for other genins. I think we should implement this rule and expand upon it. (You can watch the OVA here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIUos8MIcmU))
No Sage Mode
No Rinnegan/Tenseigan
No Susanoo/Kamui
No ridiculous techniques like Mayfly and Hijutsu: Kirisame
No OP techniques like Dust Release
And keep the # of overall KGs at two. That's my opinion.

I say no Mangekyou sharingan (we are talking a chunin exams here) and an overall limit of one KG. Two KG for genin wanting to become Chunin seems a bit much imho, especially if they claim full mastery in said KG.

That's fair. I was also thinking we can hold the Chuunin Exam around Winter Break (between. Dec 19, 2015-Jan 3, 2016). That way, there will be more people available to do the exam while giving themselves more time to 'train' / get ready.
-
I am not opposed to those ideas either.
There really is no reason to rush things. It's not like the site is closing down tomorrow or anything.

It's better not! I've invested too much time into SL.

Yea true point, and overall I agree with just having one KG. Other then that, it will be interesting to attend in the opening ceremony or something.
-
This all sounds wonderful and kind of necessary, with the previously mentioned 'norm' for people to automatically acquire KGs and powerups with no official rank ups. This would be a great way to organize those who truly wish to earn their power and am behind it if I can be. I would allow for Uzushiogakure to become apart of such as well and send some of our own shinobi, eager for a challenge.
-
That is great. And in the mean time people can be training their jutsu and sparing in the zones to get ready. I will be updating the first post as people indicate their interest to participate.
-
I guess I was the only downer here. Seems like a good number of people are behind it.
Sweet, then I can't wait to attend the fights and enjoy visiting other villages using the exams as an excuse xD
-
Well I think you brought up a good point, not many people do RP themselves at Genin/chuuin level. However, it will be nice to see this opportunity for people who are seeking to find a scenario more open to those of a different power set, than the maxed out power hitters, become available to them. I have to wonder how many people there are on SL that find it intimidating to even join the mainstream RP due to a feeling of just not being able to go head to head with the events going on around them.
-
Gwendalyn says that she would welcome opening up Tsuki no kuni/Getsugakure to the exams in order to get some activity for her little island.
-
Hmmmm. I may make a new character for this. I do enjoy Chuunin exams.
I think Genin is the most fun rank there is.
-
Seven participants so far! whoot.
Keep checking the first post for updates! Please encourage these people to hit the zones and be as helpful toward their growth as possible.
-
I'm make a character Kay. A Genin from Konoha. It will be an academy student account. I'll try to level it to Genin before then
I'm not sure on a name as of yet but I am think of going with the bug welding clan of Konoha.
Or if I get a single rest account make a rock lee type character. Gate user.
-
Either would prove quite interesting.

Hello:
I am collecting DP donation to give out as a price for the chuunin exams in December. Any DP you wish to donate would be greatly appreciated for this project. All those who donate will be listed and accounting kept on the first post of the forum thread about the event. Check there for updates as to specific dates, events, participants, and projected prize awards being offered.
Please donate to the account NPC only in order to keep all funds separate.
Thank you!
~Kayenta Moenkopi
-
Things are moving along. NPC now holds 13,600 DP in prize money donations and 10 participants have signed up. If donations keep pouring in, we should be able to award DP to more than just the grande champion of the elimination rounds in stage three! Time will tell.
We will be needing those extra GMs to lead hunts and or people to judge the third stage individual matches for the prize awards. Some people have already volunteered, so keep this in mind if it is something you would wish to do.
~Thank you!
-
Go ahead and put Meyumi down as a contestant. But put a question mark because it will depend on how her RP story progresses.
-
I volunteer as tri-..
GM. (:
-
Sign up NarutoUzumaki
-
This has my official endorsement, and will receive additional support if advertising for Amegakure's tools and wares will be allowed.
-
Profiteering as always?
Well no one is stopping you from RPing all over the place to advertise and advance Ame RP. But do not expect it to be a conditional term of you or your village's participation in the Chuunin exams.
Typically the exams are held to promote the participating villages, so that is standard procedure, whether that be your up and coming ninja or general village services. So no self-advertising will be prohibited in that sense. However, the commission *cough* shall not be doing this for you.
-
I would love to be a proctor or just gm in general.
-
This has Uzu's full endorsement on the condition that our dank memes will be endorsed.
-
I never sign my name to anything these days, you will have to endorse this check yourself, Genny gen-gen-gen.
So we will contact volunteer GM and judges when the time arrives to assign missions to run for the scavenger hunt portion of the exam, stage 2. Thank you all for volunteering your talents and efforts to this project.
-
May we have this topic stickified until after the event has been concluded?
-
Thanks for sticking the topic!
Also Thanks to Kage for making village banners for the participants section. He hopes to spark a bit of village rivalry. So clan heads and village Kages...go recruit!
-
Made an amendment to the first post.
Note concerning powers: Since you are testing for Chuunin, we really don't want tons of OP-ness here. Thinking about one KG, no EMG, no May Fly, no Kamui...that sort of thing. HOWEVER: just because your rank is not higher than chuunin does not mean you are weak, more than likely it only means you have not bothered to test for promotion within the ranks.
Is that good enough or do we need other things included?
-
No sage mode/senjutsu/senninka anything either. Better be safe than sorry.
-
Yeah, the majority agreed with:
No Sage Mode
No Mangekyo Sharingan/EMS
No Rinnegan/Tenseigan
No ridiculous techniques like Mayfly and Hijutsu: Kirisame
No OP techniques like Dust Release
But what about elemental affinities?
If people choose Mokuton as their one KG, then they have two.
Should the people w/o an ninjutsu KG have two as well or just one?
And up to what rank can they use that element? B rank and lower is okay?
-
I'd say if you have an elemental Kg which allows three elements then you should limit in other aspects. Like sucking at taijutsu.
Most Genin shouldn't be well rounded Shinobi yet. Not even a Chuunin should have mastery all aspects of the Shinobi. Most only specialize in one category. This is even true for special Jounin.
Think back at the shining exam. Sasuke was the only true Genin that excelled at pretty much all subject: taijutsu, ninjutsu, ect.
Sakura coming in next I'd say but she was still limited to having a talent for academy ninjutsu fair taijutsu and stoping of genjutsu.
Even Neji only had close combat. Gara limited to sand only.
My point being they all pretty much had major flaws. That's why I made Ken a close combat only. Making his flaws massive as age in should be.
I'd also like to point out they want be masters in their kg. they'd only be able todo very very simple Mokuton or ice release with one reset.
And for sage mode you can't have that with one reset either. You'd only be able to summon the toads. Rinnegan would only give you the push and pull which as long as it staid limited to small scale and had a cool down with not allowing all elements I think would be fine.
Space-time should be to advance for any Genin. Hell truly rasengan and chidori should be. Lightening armor a no no.
Perhaps C rank and lower? Even those should take a toll on a Genin's chakra level. For most a B rank would empty the tank rather quickly. If anything allow one B rank used per fight. And I don't mean that as in you can use one b rank level Jutsu several times in a fight but rather simply a total of one time you can use a Jutsu of that caliber.
-
As far as what rank of jutsu to be used, why not just have the rank that he/she has RP trained for? I mean, we are talking about shinobilegends genin here, not narutoverse genin.
-
Jutsu ranks usually demean the difficulty it is to use and master. Not entirely the amount of chakra it uses.
http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Jutsu#Ranks
If anything, a Genin should be able to use at least one A-rank jutsu with enough practice invested into it.
Naruto had the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique (http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Multiple_Shadow_Clone_Technique).
Sasuke had the Chidori (http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Chidori).
Boruto had the Rasengan (http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Rasengan).
Konohamaru had the Rasengan (http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Rasengan).
Rock Lee had the Reverse Lotus (http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Reverse_Lotus).
Sure they all may be special snowflakes. But everybody on SL is a special snowflake. And if somebody has a bunch of special stuff already, then why are they even still ranked as Genin in the first place?
-

-
I'm talking about SL-terms, when it comes to already-assigned ranks. Whether or not a Genin is promoted to Chuunin is up to their village kage or higher-ups.
The exams are also used as a show of exhibition of a village's upcoming talent. In the series, it was used as a proxy to show village strength, as opposed to war. And for entertaining the masses as well.
-
Well to me one would rp at Genin level out of respect for the plot. I mean a Chuunin exam doesn't have to go along with your whole official bs. Kay can void whoever she wants sense it is her plot and make what rules she wants.
I just don't get what the point of rping a Chuunin exam is if you aren't gonna use Genin level characters.
After all I don't think the plot was made truly for rankin up more so then to create some rp fun.

Plus I think it would be fun to partake in one.
-
I think it would be funner, rather than just me saying...this is my rp and this is how it goes...to have a general idea of what everyone thinks. Kabuto, for instance, was not a genin. Of course he was failing the chuunin exams every year in order to further his own agenda.
Mostly I don't want some bad ass coming through and wrecking the event by being too OP. However, most of the event will not be dependent upon being stronger than anyone else.
Keep in mind:
Stage 1: all that is assumed to have been completed just by signing up. Your character has already been recommended by some *cough* sensei to take the exam. Your character has already passed the grueling written exam.
Stage 2: you will go out into the world alone, to retrieve 2 items facing this challenge against the GM led events in the area. You might encounter player characters in these as yet undisclosed locations. Which would be so cool! I hope people do acknowledge that you are there and messing about. However, it would be very churlish of the player character to destroy you and ruin your chances to have passed a chuunin exam event to include in your back story one day. I hope if anyone does come out to mess with you that they do not have such a hateful thing in mind because GMs will step in to Curb stomp them. Still, a little interference/hindrance is to be expect.
Stage 3: This is the only portion of the exam where you will face off with another participant. The 1v1 match. Winners of each match will go on to do an elimination type tourney with a grand prize winner. If we have enough DP we will give out to the top three.
However...passing the exam only means completing stage 2 and stage 3, win or lose. The tourney is just for fun and bragging rights and prizes.
The idea is just to create an RP event for people to say, yes...I took a chuunin exam, rather than just having it in their bio as history or not bothering to have a history at all. And maybe create activity around the site, as well as promote your village, and get to meet new people.

From this page, and on-wards to the next few pages. I'll even quote the entire thing to save you guys some bandwidth.
http://www.mangastream.to/naruto-chapter-65-page-8.html
"This exam is a replacement for war among the allied countries. If you go back in time, the current allies were enemies who fought each other over who would rule. In order to prevent wasteful fighting, the stage that these countries chose for battle. That is the origins of this Chuunin selection exam.
It is a fact that this exam decides which shinobi have what it takes to become a Chuunin. But on the other hand, this exam has another side, where each country's shinobi risks their own life to protect their land's prestige. Watching this third exam will be leaders and influential individuals from many countries who make up the clients of the shinobi. And the leaders of countries will also be there to watch each of your battles. If the strength of a country is clear, that country will receive more clients. And conversely, if seen as weak, they will lose clients. And this will signal to potential enemy countries that, "Our village has this much power." So it will send a political message to the outsiders. The strength of the country is the strength of the village. The strength of the village is the strength of the shinobi. And a shinobi's true strength is born only through life-risking battle.
This exam is a place to see each country's strength, and to show off your own strength. It only has meaning because lives are at risk. And that's why those that have come before you have fought in the Chuunin Exam for this dream that is meaningful.
I said it in the beginning, I don't want you to confuse the purpose of this. By losing life and establishing balance. This is the shape of friendship in the world of shinobi. Before we begin the third test I will tell you one more thing. This is not just a test; this is a life-risking battle with your dreams and country's prestige on the line."
Plot bomb. This should go on the first post, just as some general inspiration and hype.
-
It is quite inspiring. however, I do not wish to give the impression we are doing death matches.
maybe that is just how I read it. who knows? all that talk of life risking may be misconstrued.

I don't think the third actually meant death match as more so the idea to give it all you have as if your life was on the line with the possibility that you could be seriously injured, Lee for example.
I mean if it was death matches we would have seen death. Why would proctors had stepped in?
-
It is quite inspiring. however, I do not wish to give the impression we are doing death matches.

The Forest of Death had proctors jump in only when the likes of Orochimaru showed up. Regarding the 1v1 matches, I think it's safe to say that the proctors barely intervened. Guy had to save Lee from the sand attack, I don't think that proctor was going to do squat about it personally. Then we have Sasuke's match where he head slammed a kid into the concrete. Death was not the rule, but it definitely was not out of the question, hence the 3rd's words regarding the potential lethality of it all.

Everyone intervened in the Neji v. Hinata. <.<

Possibility of death isn't the same as clear, intentional attempt to murder though. Its basically 'I want to win this match' and 'I'm going to fracking kill you'.

Hinata was a VIP, I would consider her an exception. >_>

I'll totes GM and stuff if one is needed. I kind of have the actual ability to do so and do it quite often, so why not? Like I said, though, if one is needed. If you already have enough you can just count me as extra.
-
Thanks to everyone who is volunteering to GM and proctor. We certainly will need people once the time comes.
-
just alerting people to updates. more applicants, and an rp item in the prize category.
-
New applicant putting Konoha in the lead with 5 members in the running.
-
18 applicants. whoot!
-
Yes, this event will still be occurring. Yet another participant singed up today, 3 more RP items for prizes were added, and the scavenger hunts are nearly crafted to completion. 4 GMs have committed. I would like more. So plan on seeing pms soon if you posted here that you were interested in that role or sent in an application to be a staff GM. Which by my quick count puts potential GMs up to 14, participants at 18.
Of course members who have me on ignore will not be contacted by Kay or my alts. So...potential GMs are at 13.

I am sending out this message to all genin who signed up for the exam:
Greetings Genin:
It is nearly time to begin the Chuunin Exams. Please go to the forum and submit a small bio about your character in the Chuunin Exam 2015 thread. Keep in mind at what level your character is fighting; this should be kept around genin level. It has been proposed that the following guidelines be followed as to the power set of your character:
And I do apologize but, if ANYONE knows which Sasuke it was that signed up, please tell them to send KayentaMoenkopi a pm?
Note concerning powers: Since you are testing for Chuunin, we really don't want tons of OP-ness here. Thinking about
~limit to one KG
~limit to one A rank jutsu
~no Mangekyou Sharigna/no EMG
~no Susanoo/Kamui
~no Rinnegan/Tenseigan
~no May Fly, Hijutsu: Kirisame
~no Sage Mode/Senjutsu/Senninka
~no Dust release/Swift release
~do consider that if you choose an elemental KG you take a limit in another aspect of your character, like having poor skills in genjutsu/taijutsu
...that sort of thing. So if your character has these skills, they are not usable during this exam. HOWEVER: just because your rank is not higher than chuunin does not mean you are weak, more than likely it only means you have not bothered to test for promotion within the ranks.
The purpose of submitting a bio is to have your power-set approved, the knowledge is OOC and other characters should not have knowledge of this information. It is assumed since your character is not yet chuunin, they do not yet have the notoriety for their abilities to be commonly knows throughout the realm. Certainly individual RP with said characters may have provided opportunity for this information to be learned by another character in-context of RP. At this time any Custom KG or Custom equipment will be reviewed for approval.
Thank you!

He quickly discovered that he was a natural archer, quickly becoming adept at archery. He has chakra natures in wind, water, and earth. His time with the woman gave Shinkiro insight into her business as a bounty hunter, picking up various skills and qualities of the trade. But was most important to Shinkiro was that the woman helped him deal with the trauma of losing his parents and gave him the strength to continue living. However, Shinkiro has not moved on as he vowed to avenge his parents by seeking out and killing the mercenary who did it. But he first needs to get stronger to do that…

Jiro Nara
(http://i.imgur.com/yOZOHSI.jpg)
"I feel lethal, on the verge of frenzy. I think my mask of sanity is about to slip."
male | eighteen | suna genin
EQUIPMENT
Jiro boasts the tools of trade akin to many of his fellow suna mercenaries-- a handful of kunai, exploding tags, smoke bombs, shuriken, a summoning scroll and a single tantō dubbed Ashigaru, or the footsoldier, named so because of it's dependability to help him escape from near-death scenarios. Ashigaru is 11 inches long and employs a sharpened, double-edged blade.
Beneath his robes Jiro wears two thin, steel shin guards to minimise the collateral damage to his legs when engaged in close-combat taijutsu.
JUTSU
KATON:
- Gōkakyū no Jutsu
- Gōryūka no Jutsu
- Hibashira no Jutsu
- Horou no Jutsu
- Hōsenka no Jutsu
- Hotto Houyo
- Ketatamashi Makai
- Neshou Bunshin
- Ryūka no Jutsu
- Yojin Bunshin no Jutsu

- Kagemane no Jutsu
- Kage Nui no Jutsu

GENJUTSU:
- Jigoku Gouka no Jutsu
- Narakumi no Jutsu
SYNOPSIS
Jiro specialises in long-range combat and deceit-- utilising his ichizoku's fabled shadow manipulation abilities to control and/or restrain his adversaries whilst he assimilates the best way to eliminate them without wearing himself out. A sub-par chakra capacity means that long, sustained battles are hazardous. If it comes to close-combat, Jiro is adept at kenjutsu-- however he tends to shy from it unless necessary or if he is confident he won't come out second-best.

Age: 14
Rank: Genin
Village: Kumogakure
Background:
Nova is a quick learner and works hard at his ninja studies. He does well in his classes, always doing well enough to earn praise but never quite top of the class. His parents are encouraging and are in good health. Even with his good marks and his loving parents he still feels like something is missing. He is looking for something or someone that will make him push harder than normal. Someone that will push him to his limits and push him to break those limits. That is his goal in entering these Chuunin exams.
Combat:
Raiton
Raiton: Lightning Rod
Jibashiri
Raiton Kage Bunshin
Other
Shuriken Kage Bunshin
Nova focuses heavily on Taijutsu, channeling his Raiton nature into his body and strikes. Infusing his body with Raiton he focuses mainly on increasing his speed. Ultimately he would like to learn something akin to Raiton no Yoroi but isn't quite at that stage yet. He knows some Ninjutsu to help bridge the gap between he and his target.

Dandy Echizen
Age: 16
Height: 159 cm
Weight 55 KG
Affinity
Raiton
Taijutsu
Dandy has been training under his older Brother Rani for some time now even before the academy. He always looked up to Rani and would often tell others that didn’t know his older brother that HE was Rani. When Rani would leave the village to train Dandy would get picked on for copying his older brother was often taunted by the other children saying “you’ll never be like your brother, you are nothing compared to him!” This only made Dandy train harder vowing to one day surpass his brother in every way possible. He would be training under Rani for his speed, Raiton, and his Kyudo. Like his brother he’s below average when it comes to Genjutsu, but his taijutsu makes up for his lack of his visionary skills and hopefully one day he’ll awaken his sharingan.

Ōkami Katsuro
(Nickname: MaliciousWolf)
Age: 18 l Weight: 60kg l Height: 170cm l Eyes: Azure Blue l Hair: Auburn
Birthplace: Ōkamigakure l Residence: Konohagakure l Rank: Genin l Chakra Natures: Fire + Wind
Complete Biography:
One day some eighteen years ago, a boy was born within Ōkamigakure (Village Hidden by Wolves) to a family of the Ōkami clan comprised of a battle hardened father that served as second in command of the village’s forces and a caring mother who was one of the village’s healers and also leader of the village’s healing division of medical shinobi during times of war. Katsuro led an easy life for the most part, growing up under the direct supervision of his mother where his father was always away conducting official business for the village’s head chief and also orders directly from the Hokage himself. Ōkamigakure resided after all within the Konoha Forest and thus was under direct control of Konohagakure. Thus all the shinobi of Ōkamigakure wore headbands with the insignia of the leaf, and ultimately served under the rule of the Hokage. The current Hokage and the Hokages before him were kind rulers though, and ultimately allowed Ōkamigakure to handle its own affairs and trading day to day unhindered. If anything it felt the two villages were more of an alliance with the mutual goal to protect all of the inhabitants of the Forest through the strength and will of Fire, and strain was never felt between the two.
The village was called Ōkamigakure for a reason, and that was due to a specific class of transformation ninjutsu that utilizes the Ōkami clan’s Kekkei Genkai of autonomous nature chakra absorption (a variation of Jūgo's Clan's Kekkei Genkai) that would turn the user into a stable form of a wolf (Ōkami no jutsu) that could not be dispelled from taking any sort of blow, and increased the user’s senses and general awareness greatly while in the form. Their physical strength and speed was also vastly improved, and it was a great technique that had many uses in reconnaissance missions, various attack paradigms, and even for strategic retreats. The technique was such commonplace within the village that specific sets of armor and weapons were created to outfit users of the techniques in the field of battle, which they kept within seals on their person to be released during the time of transformation so they were quickly outfitted. The user of the technique, thanks to the kekkei genkai’s characteristics, has total control of how much they actually transform where some opt to only make their bodies appear more feral and simply just boost their strength and speed so they can still use conventional weapons made for man. The clan’s kekkei genkai was very unstable though, and almost a curse, and originally came from the Jūgo Clan. The Ōkami clan thoroughly researched the nature of their own kekkei genkai, eventually coming up with a seal that essentially cut their kekkei genkai off. Through the use of the seal, those aptly trained can properly use their abilities. Unfortunately some thirst for too much power and utilize their kekkei genkai too much and too freely, eventually falling into madness…
Being under the care of his mother for the most part, Katsuro grew fascinated in the art of medical ninjutsu seeing the acts of the healing his mother performed within his own home. As he grew older, he would come to assist his mother in the basic mending of wounds, splinting of injuries, and the administration of various medicines concocted by his mother through the art of herbalism. He would go through and study many books describing and outlining the intricacies of human anatomy and physiology, but not only human, but also of the various beasts that comprised the realm and had been studied before. He would also practice some of the more basic medical ninjustu techniques, such as infusion of chakra to speed the healing of wounds on small animals, and during practice on the people of the village under the direct supervision of his mother and only for the smaller wounds.
Katsuro not only inherited his mother’s good will and interest in the healing arts; however, but also his father’s fighting spirit and bad habits of always getting into trouble. As much as Katsuro loved learning, it got boring to read or study after sometime so he would go out into the village and conduct pranks and get into all kinds of fights. The fights led him to develop a bit of a knack for taijutsu, and he would win just as many of the fights he lost on average despite them always being three on one, and he would always offer up to heal his opponents as an act of good sportsmanship after the fight before eventually tending to his own wounds. During the few days his father was home and free of duties, he would take Katsuro out into the forest and put him through intense training as he would coax and unleash various beasts upon him. It was through these intense trainings that Katsuro ultimately learned the way of the land and the basic survival skills needed to live during the most trying times. He also further improved his taijutsu skills by learning how to focus his chakra into his attacks, and became adept at close combat utilizing various weapons and coating them in chakra through the use of his wind nature such as a pair of Battle Claws his father gave to him as a gift one day when he returned after a long battle.
Soon Katsuro would become of age once turning 13, and per the tradition, would partake in a ceremony in which each adolescent of the Ōkami clan would have a wolf’s print sealed on the center of their upper back (Fūinjutsu: Wolf’s Seal) by the clan’s leader to limit the amount of outside nature/spirit chakra that would enter their body autonomously as their kekkei genkai emerged. Given the nature of the kekkei genkai, the untrained body of an adolescent would otherwise keep absorbing nature chakra until the person turned savaged and enraged fairly quickly and went on a killing spree, eventually their own body breaking down as their chakra channels could not handle the large influx of energy if they were not tracked down and killed before hand by a special division of nin within the village specifically trained to handle rogue kekkei genkai users. The seal was similar to the sealing jutsu utilized on bijuu carriers, but instead of keeping foreign chakra isolated and sealed within the body, the clan’s seal was designed to keep foreign chakra outside and sealed away from the body until the user matured enough physically and mentally to slowly release the seal in stages and utilize the nature chakra around them. Following having received the seal per tradition, Katsuro’s father would teach him the clan’s special wolf transformation technique. The technique only required a small amount of nature chakra in addition to the user’s innate physical/spiritual chakra, and thus stage zero of the seal release was all that was necessary. Stage zero involved the user making a basic hand sign while focusing on the seal as a whole on the user’s back, imagining a current of warmth emanating out from it. This would cause the seal as a whole to appear on the user’s back, as a steady small amount of nature chakra would then be allowed to enter their body freely. It was through this that Katusro was able to transform into a wolf and train in the arts of wolf combat under his father’s supervision. Eventually Katsuro would learn to utilize stage one and two of the seal release process, where there were six stages in all along with a final seventh stage that involved complete seal break, considered suicidal, and the technique only known by the clan’s leader.
Katsuro at one point in time managed to achieve stage four of the seal release process completely on accident and by fluke where the seal was designed not to allow the next stage of release until the user was truly ready. This came one night when the village was attacked when his father, mother, and most of the village’s forces were away in a large scale battle, the battle later found out to be a diversion so the village could be attacked and raided for its secret techniques. Katsuro awoke to blood curling screams outside his home within the streets, and now being age sixteen, much stronger, and well trained as he was, he grabbed his pair of Kusarigamas given to him as a gift from his father for becoming a genin and jumped into action. The young genin was not prepared for the sight before him though, as he saw countless women and children lay slain across the street. All he remembers next was seeing a foreign nin toying with a corpse before him, before rage boiled up inside of him, and then… nothing… total blackness. He awoke two weeks later within a hospital within Konohagakure where apparently most of the injured from his own village were transported here for treatment when a convoy of Konoha nin caught wind of the attack on the village and came to aid. When they arrived though, all they found where remnants of the assailants bodies torn to shreds as if attacked by some large wild beast, and the rest having retreated. What survivors that remained and recalled events of that night spoke of the genin going berserk to anbu nin investigators, which led them to find out the shock of the events somehow managed to cause the genin to overtake the seal and cause an instant stage 4 release. The genin eventually collapsed from exhaustion, and the seal was then able to take back control of his kekkei genkai. Such was what the genin heard from the anbu’s report to the Hokage outside his room. Since then, the genin acquired the nickname of “MaliciousWolf’ to those aware of the events from that night. Most though only knew him simply as Wolf/Ōkami, few knew his given name Katsuro.
Now two years later at age eighteen, the young genin returns to Konohagakure to assist in its affairs while showcasing himself as a force to be reckoned with as he aims to show the Lords of the Land during the Chuunin Exams that Konohagakure’s fighting force is not one to be toyed with, and to fear the bite of its wolves.
Abilities/Techniques:
- Kekkei Genkai: Variant of Jūgo's Clan's Kekkei Genkai (Never could find official name, this is how it is listed in the Naruto wikia)
--->Body has enzymes that autonomously absorb nature chakra with ease and great power.
--->Fūinjutsu: Wolf’s Seal in place by Ōkami clan to completely cutoff the flow of nature chakra into the body due to negative effects of the Kekkei Genkai.
--->Seal releasable in further stages as body ages/matures. Katsuro can only release up to Stage 2 of 7.
--->Stage 0 release: Seal of wolf's paw appears on back briefly like a flash as small steady stream of nature chakra is allowed into the body. This release is mainly used to carry out Wolf Technique, as in transform into a wolf. Slight boost to strength/speed/healing, can be maintained for days with no issue.
--->Stage 1 release: Wolf's paw remains visible on the genin's back, eyes will begin to slightly glow a soft blue, increased flow of nature chakra into the body, strength, speed, healing, focus moderately increased, human features start to look slightly more feral, wolf form slightly increased in size and more feral in appearance. Stage 1 release can be maintained/used for a total 1-2 hours at genin's current level before fatigue. Once fatigued, takes 12-24 hours to recoup before seal can be released again. Genin is slightly more easily agitated during this stage, which can be more a negative than a positive.
--->Stage 2 release: One of the four digits of the wolf's paw disappears, eyes now more obviously glowing, human features appear much more feral and wolf like, if in wolf form then form is even larger in size and more menacing looking. Speed, strength, healing, reaction time greatly increased. At genin's current level, can only maintain stage 2 release for 15-20 minutes before fatigue. Will remain fatigued for at least 24 hours before seal can be released again. Genin's perception declines at this stage, despite greatly increased reaction time. Basically becomes more head strong and forward in his attacks, and relies more on his increased healing ability then to simply dodge attacks. Genin is easily agitated and enraged at this stage, and could potentially be coaxed into focusing attacks on aggressor alone for better or for worse.
--->??Stage 3 release??: Genin has not yet achieved this stage, could be a possible achievement during the chuunin exam given the exam's tendencies to bring out more within its participants. Regardless, will be a brief one time use before genin becomes incapacitated not being accustomed to its use. - High Marks in Taijutsu, along with chakra infusion into attacks.
- Moderate Marks in Medical Ninjutsu: Able to heal most small injuries, repair most moderate injuries, control bleeding in severe injuries for self and others.
- Some marks in Katon and Fūton, mainly using Fūton to strengthen Katon attacks and increase sharpness/speed of weapons. Higher grade attacks more easily utilized with Kekkei Genkai stage releases.
- Wolf Technique (Ōkami no jutsu): Transforms users partially/fully into wolf. Through use of nature chakra this has true physical form and will not dispel from being attacked. Wolf form obviously faster, has increased senses, can be armed, harder to detect when on the move. Weakness is limitations in use of weapons and some Katon/Fūton jutsu, also cannot use taijutsu.
- Shadow Clone Jutsu: Katsuro can spawn two shadow clones.
- Wolf Communication: Members of the Ōkami clan can speak to one another while in wolf form using wolf tongue, along with simple gestures. This is useful in communicating verbal information more openly while in enemy territory without fear of enemy nin intercepting the communication, except of course nin with well trained ears and/or some ability that makes them adept at communicating/understanding animals. If necessary, nin can speak human tongue while in wolf form to other human's; however, speech is grizzly and spoken through growls which can make it difficult to understand for some. Members can also speak to, and understand, wild wolves and other canine like species similar to the Inuzuka clan. More experienced clan members can understand the speech of other animals/species; however, the genin cannot do this yet at his current level of experience.
Equipment:
- Duel Kusarigamas (sickle blades) each with 5m in length chain attached, light/medium weight. Chains have special clasp at end that can be worn on the wrist of each hand for throwing, swinging, recalling weapon, or to interconnect chains together for longer reaching attack with one blade, among various other techniques/uses. Can be coated in chakra to strengthen/speed up attacks. Great for close to medium distance combat. Released from seal tag during time of need.
- Duel pair of battle claws, worn like brass knuckles, with three sharp, slightly curved yet thick, blades that are aprox 10 inches in length. Close combat use obviously, light weight, thickness and curvature of blades allow deflection of large weapon attacks up close, great deflection tool for distant attacks. Can be coated in chakra to strengthen/speed up attacks. Each individual pair of claws are worn on quick release clasps hanging on either side of the genin's waist for quick access, plus it just looks pretty dang cool to him :P Go to weapon for most close encounters.
- Katsuro himself wears studded leather nin attire that have thin plates of metal concealed underneath. Armor is designed in such a way to not conflict with movements, with material thinner and more flexible near joints. Katsuro has a silver/red fur hooded coat he likes to wear that was made from the fur he sheds from his wolf form. The coat not only provides warmth, but is used to conceal his human scent from the various beasts he may encounter, as well as from special tracking nin units where it gives off the scent of a wolf. Given its thickness though, Katsuro is known to take the coat off during direct encounters and tying it around his waist so his movements are not restricted.
- Set of wolf armor with metal plates across vital areas, legs, and head, studded soft leather like material in areas requiring freedom to move/bend, even thinner material under the pits of the legs that serves nothing but to hold everything together and not hinder leg movement. A few side pouches holstering kunai among other small ninja tools and pills easily accessible by a wolf's mouth. Full set contained within a small summoning seal somewhere on the genin's person, can be released during full wolf transformation technique or sometime later after the transformation had occurred. Resealable of course after finished being used.
- Various other common shinobi tools such as explosive tags, smoke bombs/releasing tags, kunai, shuriken, food pills, first aid supplies, flash bombs, list goes on.

Well that's all I could think of. Took me about five hours to write this out where this it is the first time I really gave a lot of thought into my character, his background, aspirations, what all he can actually do. No one in the realm really knows anything about my character, nor did I honestly before writing this. Cannot believe it took me 6+ years to finally do all this and sum everything up about him. Hope this is an acceptable character, my RP skills are not that great though, especially during active RP, so who knows just how efficiently I'll end up using all this. I'm pretty happy about the solidness though, and really like the spin I put to the Kekkei Genkai to make it my own.

Bio: During his time in Konoha’s Ninja Academy, Naruto’s skills were mediocre at best, and that’s putting it nicely. Failing terribly at the Clone Technique especially. The other children would tease and make fun of him for his terrible ninjutsu, taijutsu, and overall ability as a ninja. Many told him that he should quit, but Naruto was still determined to be Hokage, so that others would look up to him, instead of looking down and belittling him. As he began to drift further into his hatred, there were some kids who looked past the trouble maker, and saw how badly he wanted others to be around him. Making friends for the first time had delighted Naruto so much he no longer would he feel like he was alone. The new shinobi had dedicated constant time and effort to training, slowly building up his chakra reserves, but he was still lacking in the skills required to pass the Academy like his buddies.
The encouragement by his friends had given Naruto that drive to never give up, so he trained hard until he finally graduated, though he was not any stronger than the normal entry level Academy Student.
After graduation, Naruto was excited to become a part of a team, to increase his field of friends. But to his dismay, he was refused to put into a squad because of his selfish and immature actions as a young one. This unwavering ninja was not going to let this prevent him from becoming stronger. So from behind the scenes Naruto would halt Konoha infiltration from minor threats, but this did not satisfy him.
Still being looked on as the same decadent, irresponsible, prankster; the villagers still refused to see Naruto as one of their own. This made it hard for Naruto to get important missions, leaving him usually with D Ranked or even the rare C Ranked missions. This would include escorting travelers, protecting gardens from vermin, walking dogs etcetera.
One day, after seeing Naruto’s power in battle, the new Hokage of that time, Tommi Uematsu, had taken him under his wing for a short time, noticing his potential and what Naruto soon discovered was his 火の意志, Will of Fire. Along with his fellow colleague and rival, Nathan Uchiha, Naruto’s strength and skill had increased ten fold. Now under the tutelage of the Hokage, people finally began to respect Naruto, seeing his Will of Fire burn brightly. After some time, the Hokage eventually taught the young man the potent jutsu, Rasengan. This, along with Shadow Clone Jutsu became primary in his arsenal.
Tommi had allowed his two students to sign the Toad contract, which triggered the start of a long line of friendship with the amphibians of Myobokuzan. After a long time spent with his sensei, the two eventually parted ways. His rivalry with Nathan continued to push him to new heights until eventually they caught the attention of the Sages of Myoboku, Shima and Fukasaku. To avert a threat foreseen by the Great Toad Sage, the Two Toad Sages gathered Nathan and Naruto to Mount Myoboku for training. The old geezers became like surrogate parents to Naruto, which is why till this day he affectionately calls them Ma and Pa. During his time there, he became aquanited with many of the inhabitants, learned new skills and invented there the Wind Release: Rasenshuriken. Most importantly though, he completely mastered the art of Hermit Mode, a transformation that drastically increases his ninjutsu, taijutsu, strength, speed, agility, and durability.
Returning to Konoha after a month of intense training, Naruto felt stronger, but yet there was a void he couldn't ignore. His soul yearned for a piece of himself he believed was out there somewhere, leading him once again to leave Konoha. He would eventually search out Uzushiogakure to immerse himself in his history and clan. He would spend 3 years living with the Uzumaki, developing his fuinjutsu skills to the point he became a master, creating his own as well as discovering his own unique ability to produce Adamantine Sealing Chains.
The Uzumaki spent many joyous days with his brothers, reading through the Grand Library, helping with missions and pigging out on ramen. However, he got that feeling again. This time around Naruto knew what it was, he had a nomadic nature to himself, never staying in one place for too long. He desired to make many friends, new memories, explore the world and eventually become the greatest ninja alive. So he left the clan, though never cutting ties with either it or Konoha. To this day, he still travels, visiting his homes whenever he finds the time.

Tezuka, Natsuki
(http://i63.tinypic.com/e9hoy0.jpg)
Age: 20
Height: 5’ 7’’ / 170cm
Weight: 145lb / 66 kg
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Village of Origin: Kumogakure
Current Village: Uzushiogakure
Rank: Genin (Left her home village before getting tested in the Chuunin exams)
Chakra Affinity: Lightning release, Water release
Special Abilities:
- Storm release KG, not proficient
- Learning fuinjutsu
- Proficient with bladed weapons, especially projectiles (shuriken, kunai)
Personality:
Impatient, independent and sarcastic, Natsuki is often deemed rude. She is charismatic, egotistical at times even, considering how she has spent years on her own. She is secretive about her past, plagued by nightmares and guilt of how she killed her own sensei, and just as afraid that she might get found out and have to pay for her actions. Despite her powerful jutsu, she has nothing in her life to fight for but her own life itself. This gives her a superiority complex where Natsuki puts on an air of not wanting to go on missions, or help others, or spar the shinobi she meets in her travels because she is above ‘wasting her chakra on such trivial things’ (Though she will spar if she feels like testing out her abilities). The fact is that Natsuki is driven most by her longing of power so that when the day her nightmares come true… she will be strong enough to survive it. However, she decided Uzushiogakure’s kage was worth fighting for, because his power impressed her.
Character History:
Natsuki was from Kumogakure, born and raised there. She graduated the academy at 11 years old, average like the rest of her classmates and became a genin. By 13 years of age, she was bored of the D missions she and her team were given and asked her sensei, a woman named Kazue, for extra training before the Chuunin exams which Natsuki desperately wanted to take part in. Natsuki learned quickly and was frustrated by the way Kazue seemed to want to teach in a slow, patient and gradual manner. During a misunderstanding and an argument with Kazue about the Chuunin exams, Natsuki unleashed a jutsu in her direction and killed the woman accidentally. Since her team wasn’t around, she dumped the body of her sensei and in fear of retribution, Natsuki abandoned the village. She was nearly 15 when she removed her protector from her forehead and took to the road (though she doesn’t consider herself a true missing nin and has not slashed the protector to defy her village of origin). Her family, and her team, and the village believes her to be dead after finding Kazue’s body but not her own so she was never pursued. She was on the road for many years, training herself by spying on various villages, before coming to meet the kage of Uzushiogakure.

[Submitted by Zayne from SL]
Name:
Zayne
Age:
18
Height:
6ft / 183cm
Weight:
185lbs / 84kg
Eye Color:
Onyx
Hair Color:
Jet
Chakra Color:
Aquamarine
Build:
Athletic, Lean, Toned
Fighting Style:
Brawler
Affinities:
Earth Release
Fire Release
Lightning Release
Kekkei Genkai:
Explosion Release
Unique:
Eight Gates
Sensor
Personality:
"An irrepressible, fiery young man, Zayne dives headfirst into danger using nothing but his powerful physique as a weapon. Swayed by emotion, he is prone to rash words and actions. Nonetheless, many are won over by his outgoing and optimistic nature."
Zayne is a relentless optimist and a self-proclaimed "hero" who wishes to protect and help anyone in need. Although his heart may be in the right place, his naivety and optimism sometimes rubs people the wrong way. He is an exceptionally hard worker with the belief that hard work and passion trumps natural talent. He is respectful of authority and is willing to follow orders. However, in the event that an order compromises his beliefs, he will refuse and surround himself to the consequences. He tends to take on more responsibility than he should only because he doesn't want to see others carry any burdens.
History:
For reasons yet unknown, Zayne grew up in numerous foster homes and orphanages. Thus, his skill set was developed from defending against older assailants and protecting younger "siblings". He hasn't earned an official shinobi schooling but he does understand the principles and basics. Despite this shortcoming, his heart and passion for being a shinobi definitely rivals the veterans of old. The only thing of his past that he carries with him is an old and worn Kumogakure headband. He has always wondered who it belonged, often fantasizing that his father was a strong and well known shinobi. Now that he is an adult (18), he has finally been released to discover the truth behind this trinket.

I am quite pleased with everyone who was able to participate. This last year was quite the struggle for me. I had hoped to keep up with things better, harass people to stay active and the like. be more on tops of things. Not my usual showing to say the least.
But still not too shabby. Not too shabby at all.
-
The few participants I had under me seemed like they were doing good, but none of them made it too far unfortunately :( It's too bad, because I actually had some (at least I thought they were) fun RP planned for those guys. But, it's good to hear that some people actually went through with it!
-
You know...I am still holding TezukaNatsuki's DP.
If she ever finishes the exam just post here so I can pay her off already. It's pretty hefty sum.
