Located in the land of Tree and Leaf, Hidden Leaf Village is currently the largest and most powerful of all the Shinobi Villages. Due to its large population, its military presence is very powerful, even though the times are considered to be peaceful. 13 years ago, the Hidden Leaf Village was attacked by the Nine Tails Fox Demon. It caused much destruction and killed many Shinobi of the village. Eventually it was defeated and sealed into newborn child Uzumaki Naruto by the village's most powerful Shinobi and leader, the 4th Hokage . The 4th Hokage died soon after the battle ended and since that time, power has returned to the previous and 3rd Hokage who currently rules over the Village.

To keep up the village's power and skill, Academy students go on to become Genin to further their own abilities. With their Jounin instructor they move out into the world, completing assignments for the honor of their village and their personal honor.

This year is the same as all the rest... A new batch of Academy students are ready to graduate, to begin their careers as Shinobi, to become Genin... The world awaits them and the village waits to see what they will make of themselves in the field outside of their hidden village...

Though there are changes for the worse in some cases, as Jounin run low in the village... One team now will have six, due to the mysterious dissapearance of a single Jounin. A mission is waiting for them towards the edge of their own country, and the man there has more importance than the Hokage ever believed...


---------------------------------------------------------

In this RPG, you will take the place of one of six Genin who just recently graduated and will be assigned to a new team with a Jounin leader. Everyone in this (besides the Jounin) will be relatively inexperianced, but will gain strength and knowledge through the Jounin's instructions and their assignments.

The one big rule in this is that there will be no Sharigan or Byakugan eyes allowed. No being some distant relative of the two famous clans that inherit these traits, no transplants... While you may have original skills for your character, I will not allow overpowered ones in.

I also reserve the right to reject any person who I believe isn't up to either post consistently or wouldn't add much to the rpg. Good rpers only! Now onto the sign-up form...

----------------------

My sign-up... The Jounin

Name: Kakuritsu

Sex: Male

Age: 18

Rank: Jounin

Appearance: 6'3" with a pristine uniform, completely spotless. His hand guards, his weapons, all are immaculate. His black hair is cut short and always kept very tidy, each side symetrical to the other. His eyes are dark green and his face displays almost no emotion. A very cleanshaven man.

Personality: Extremely analytical, Kakuritsu thinks in numbers, probability, and study figures. His experiance in the field has made him evaluate those around him continuously... Even when they aren't his students. Adaptable in some cases to changes, he does not have the biggest drive for advancement, a reason he hasn't risen any farther up the ranks despite his talents. He has trouble displaying emotions and infact understanding them outside of the battlefield.

Strengths: Tactical genius, he is able to evaluate battle situations in mere moments and bring them to his overall advantage. He is good at reading opponent's moves, tributed to his own Genin training and his years of study of foreign techniques.

Weaknesses: Kakuritsu has obsessive compulsive disorder, and is off-put by unclean things or actions that disturb his normal procedure. While he is much more flexible about such things in mid-battle, if the opponent tries hard enough this Jounin can be distracted by the oddest things...

Skills: Basic package plus several foreign techniques (revealed later)

Personal History: Born and raised in the Hidden Leaf Village, Kakuritsu displayed an early talent for numbers and observation. His parents were decent Shinobi in their own right, without much in the way of noble blood themselves. He followed his parent's example and urging, and put his talents to work at the Academy.

Graduating from the school at a record breaking time, Kakuritsu's Genin training period was very brief, his missions completed in very efficient manners. He passed the Chuunin without too much difficulty, startling the Hakage and higher shinobi. He was expected to be a rising star of the village, but it later became clear Kakuritsu had no real drive for fame... Added to the fact his obsessive compulsive nature drove most people away from him, and the rest crazy.

This is the first time Kakuritsu will be training a team of Genin, taking him away from his studies and put back into the field. Some say its because his students will learn much from him... Others say its just because they want Kakuritsu out of the village to drive others crazy...

Weapons:

Basic package

Saber pistols= A set of three small pistols, each shaped like a knife with true edges that will cut. The actual blade flips partially down before firing, and unknown to the assailant the hilt of the "knife" is sharpened as well, making it a handy weapon for close range fighting. Shots can also be fired from the hilt of the pistols. Kakuritsu has developed his own technique with these guns.

Other: Kakuritsu will be checking uniforms among the Genin... Sloppiness will not be tolerated...
