@The Mad Hatter@Halvtand To be perfectly honest, that's another instance of my brain and fingers not connecting. I swear when I was making the technique up I added something along those lines. I'm one of those people who gives techniques like that horrible side effects usually. Oh you can move objects with your mind? Do it too much and your brain explodes. That sort of thing.
Highly interested in this, If you are still accepting players. The idea I've got floating around in my head revolves around Agni, so maybe a ninja with scorch release (?)
@The Mad Hatter As in the spell from the Witcher world, you muggle. Never mind, that was igni...
@Crux Agni could be scorch, but we don't want to fill the game up with bloodline users. Have a look on the naruto wikia: naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Narutopedia
Maybe some real fire techniques are in line with what you're thinking about.
@Crux We are still accepting. Agni? As in the Hindu god?
Yes, but as Halvtand mentioned I wouldn't want to bomb your roster with more bloodline users
Maybe some real fire techniques are in line with what you're thinking about.
Yeah, I think that's the route I will end up taking. Thinking about how they made Agni in Smite, he doesn't really have any skills that can't be done with just fire techniques.
We have room, still, so feel free to make a character. The dude's name is Ao, if you mean the one who stuffed a Byakugan into his own skull. Well, I don't know if it'd be OP. That's depend on the rest of the character, 'cause if all he can is is have the Byakugan, then he'd be pretty useless. I would advice against making a character with the Byakugan, though, Hyuuga or not.
Yeah, Ao is the guy I meant.
Why would you advise against it? I was thinking of using a Byakugan medical ninja of some sort, but I might think of something else instead.
Sexuality: Bisexual(?)/Unknown, really. He hasn't really put any thought into romance or sexuality, since it was never too important for him.

Biography
Background: Koichi was never told of the details of his birth, other than that he was born during his parents journey to Gobigakure. When the Second Shinobi World War was under-way, his parents had fled the country due to having an anti-war sentimentality. As shinobi and Uchiha, they were expected to serve Konohagakure. With the threat of being branded as traitors, Koichi's parents packed what they could and left as quickly as they could. Of course, this was easier said than done. With war comes inhumane deeds; struggling to survive against robbers, rogue ninja, and even shinobi from Konoha that sought to bring them back. Along the way, his mother had given birth to him at a resting area. Luckily for his mother and himself, Medical-nin from Kumogakure were able to provide aid and make sure his delivery was safe. Hearing of a village that was kept safe and hidden by a barricade made by doton-users, his parents soon made their way to it so they could begin a new life.
As Koichi grew, his father began a small farm in order to help the village and earn a decent living...as well as to escape from the reality that he was a shinobi. At around the age of seven, Koichi began to assist on the farm; it was this time that their family had started to make a small name for themselves within the village. Growing up was easy enough for Koichi due to the helpful nature that he provided. For helping with odd-jobs when his father didn't need him for farming business, Koichi was able to give himself his own reputation as a kind and helping youth. This, combined with the strength and endurance he gained from hard labor, allowed Koichi to make even more money and find better jobs.
Eventually, a Chuunin from the village spoke to his father about the potential of his son becoming a shinobi, considering their bloodline. While he initially refused to allow his son to become a shinobi, his father was eventually forced to give in to the demands...on one condition; he taught his son. With that, Koichi began to learn the ways of becoming a shinobi, starting at the age of ten. While he initially started off his teachings with great efficiency, he began to struggle as he made his way into the higher levels of education. He wasn't a natural at all; in fact, he enjoyed the more 'normal' aspects of life, like fishing and farming. His father was frustrated by the slacking his son had and ever since, there seems to be no progress.
Today: Koichi is currently going about his everyday life as a farmhand and job hunter within the village. He is contempt with his lifestyle, especially now that he knows how to defend himself with jutsu. However, he feels like there was something that he had forgotten....some kind of deal his father made.
Personality: Koichi is your average young, working man; dedicated to his work and always trying to improve his trade. To some, Koichi seems to be rather plain man. However, looking harder at the boy reveals an air of potential, as if he could do so much more than what he could now. In fact, some people have stated that his gaze seemed to show a yearning for more than just working as a regular villager. While not necessarily courageous, Koichi is known for being able to stick to his guns during conflict. Perhaps one of the most noticeable things about Koichi is that he seems to be a little absent-minded when left to his own devices. Another quality, which is a huge subject of teasing, is his easily flustered attitude when faced with gratitude, flirting, praise, and embarrassing subjects.

Special Traits
Hard Worker Unsurprisingly, Koichi's time as a farmhand and a job hunter has shaped him into a hard worker. While most might feel satisfied reaching a certain level, Koichi never appears happy until he has successfully reached his major goal. Every step is just one of many to him - stopping will only make the climb longer.
Hidden Potential, Terrible Control Like many Uchiha, Koichi has the potential to become a powerful shinobi. The problem being is that he was never raised with the mindset of being one. All of his time being a regular worker has stunted his development and only makes his potential harder to reach. While he can perform jutsu with ease, there seems to be a sloppiness to it. Perhaps with time and a strong enough dedication, Koichi can become a powerful shinobi...perhaps.
Brawler Koichi, despite not being all that excellent at the use of jutsu, has shown excellent progress in taijutsu and kenjutsu. In fact, it's almost astonishing that he was able to learn how to use both forms of fighting so quickly. His skills are considered to be inherited from his bloodline and not of his own natural ability.
-====-
Equipment
Kunai Pouch Koichi, as instructed by his father, usually carries a small pouch with slots for easy access to kunai. While he's never had to use it before, it's always nice to carry it around. Koichi tends to wear it on his wrist from underneath his baggy clothing.
Ninjato Koichi carries around a ninjato on his lower back. It was originally used by his father and later passed down to him when he began his training. -====-
Taijutsu: Koichi doesn't know any Taijutsu techniques, but is skilled in the fighting style 'Arhat Fist', utilizing the 18 Hands Styles. He has also trained in small amounts of Aikido, although he has much to learn in the style.
Genjutsu: None
Done and done. Tell me what you think, Mr. Hatter.
<Snipped quote by The Mad Hatter> Yeah, Ao is the guy I meant.
Why would you advise against it? I was thinking of using a Byakugan medical ninja of some sort, but I might think of something else instead.
Should be a fun roleplay to be in, anyway.
Well, actually, I like the idea and all. I once played a game where my Hyuuga Character had her eye dug out of it's socket while she was still alive for something similar. After being pwned by an enemy during a mission, one of her own teammates, who was training to be a Medic, snatched her eye to use for himself and left her there to die. That was a particularly dark Naruto RP.
The reason I advice against it is that we don't want the place littered with KG. If you do decide to make that character, it wouldn't keep me from accepting it, if it is acceptable, but I'd rather see characters without a KG (even if it is a stolen one).
Looks really good I will at least throw the ole hat into the ring.
If you get tired of your old hat, I can make you a new one (lame name joke)
I do have a slight issue with the fact that one of the techniques you listed it from a game and those are generally off-limits when it comes to ... anything but the game, but the technique you chose is so small and all that I'm cool with it.
Goukakyuu is like a handshake to the Uchiha, so that obviously had to be there.
I am curious about him having two chakra natures, despite barely even bothering to train; a second nature transformation isn't something that you just simply learn. If he had an affinity towards fire, like most Uchiha do, then that would be easier for him to learn, but learning a second element, and even something as unpredictable as wind, would takes years and years of hard work. (Sasuke, because of plot-armor, was an exception because of his pure genius)
Despite him not having any techniques for his Taijutsu/Kenjutsu, I would like for you to make a Style for it. It doesn't have to be much, just a slight description of how he fights since "brawling" is a wide term. Have a look at my sheet if you want to see what I mean (since my baby is a Taijutsu/Kenjutsu specialist).
Oh, and the code you want for your techniques is [url=Insert URL here]Name of the Technique[/url]
Alright, cool. Thanks for telling me everything I need to fix. I'll rework it after I finish my movie. I'll probably just scrap Wind Release. A fighting style would be pretty easy to write, too.
@The Mad Hatter Oh shit, whoops. Sorry, it's like four in the morning for me and I ended up forgetting. I'll go fix that now. I guess I forgot it because I removed Wind from his Nature list.
@The Mad Hatter Oh shit, whoops. Sorry, it's like four in the morning for me and I ended up forgetting. I'll go fix that now. I guess I forgot it because I removed Wind from his Nature list.
EDIT: Done and done.
It's all right. Shit happens. I forget things sometimes, too.
Congratulations! He's accepted. You're free to move him to the Character Tab.
Thanks again! Can't wait to get this shit started.
I know the feel, man. I'm really hyped.
We're basically just waiting for @Halvtand to get his head out of his butt and make his character + review mine (which you are all welcome to do, if you wish (GMs can do wrong, too)) ;)
Body Type and Shape: Ectomorph, basically rectangularly shaped, some muscle.
Height: 180 cm / 5'9”
Weight: 75 kg / 165 pounds
Hair Color: Black.
Hair Style: Your typical anime-pointy hair, about a hand's width long.
Eye Color: Green.
Scars and markings: Several, both big and small. One does not survive a ninja war without earning some. Most notorious are The coward’s mark - A big slash that goes across Mikio’s back from his right shoulder to his left hip. Burned hand - Mikio’s left hand sustained second degree burns during the war and is covered in scar tissue. Still usable though. Pin marks - Once Mikio found himself pinned to a big tree by a spear, it left an almost perfectly round red mark on his chest, just below the shoulder.
Clothing: Mikio's clothing are all white or black. As opposed to many ninjas he doesn't wear sandals, and prefers a sturdy pair of black boots instead. His pants reach halfway down his chins and are white. On the top half he wears a black, long-sleeved shirt, over that is a short-sleeved white closed vest. Even over that he wears a black coat long enough to cover his pants. The village's hitai-ate is worn across his forehead like it's supposed to. He also wears a white glove on his left hand to cover the scars.

Biography
Background: Mikio was born a third of a century ago to one of the villages many, many prostitutes. His mother was never what you would call nurturing and as soon as possible young Mikio was handed over to the village's already overflowing orphanage. He still doesn't know who his mother is, and considering her occupation he sincerely doubts that even she knows his real father.
Mikio's earliest memories are from the orphanage, literally being surrounded by kids of all ages, and not enough adults to keep them busy. Like all orphanages this one suffered from under-staffing as well as an incredibly low budget. Some of the older kids showed promises as ninjas, so they could either go to what could only sarcastically be called the ninja academy or do the odd E-rank mission to get some funds for the place. As Mikio grew up he discovered his own ninja talent and after finishing the academy training joined the small army that would take every mission they could get their hands on in order to get some money. Money meant food, not just for them, but for all the kids.
During his earlier years Mikio often wondered about his parents and snuck into the keeper's office more than once to try and figure out who they were. As far as he knows he was never seen, or at least no one ratted him out, everyone in there was probably as curious as he and let him try. As Mikio grew it became obvious that the orphanage was too small, and he banded together with some other ninjas and rented a small house on the outskirts of the village. Rent was almost non-existent so a lot of the money that did not go directly to food for themselves could be sent to the orphanage.
Years passed, pretty uneventfully. Mikio practiced his ninja arts with his bunk mates, another reason for them to live outside of both the village and the orphanage. Then the war came. Rolling in over the village like a thunderstorm. Fire rained from the sky and metal slashed through the air right next to the innocent men, women and children of the village. Mikio fought as best he could together with his childhood friends and the other ninjas. However, even their best efforts were easily swept aside by the almost absurdly powerful ninjas of real hidden villages. In the end they could only defend themselves, try to protect the innocent or get out of the way as the more powerful jutsus were unleashed.
Many of Mikio's friends died in the war, and none died like a hero, very few died with a purpose. Most simply threw their bodies at the enemy, trying to at least distract them long enough to let someone else get away, but it rarely worked. The day the walls came up was one of the happiest in Mikio's life. It did not mean the end of the war, but at least the innocent villagers were a little bit safer. As the war wound down the village's ninjas stopped engaging in battle and fell back to simply patrol the wall, guard the entrance and protect the village.
Today: Today Mikio lives alone in the small house he once inhabited with a small group of friends He is one of the older ninjas that tries to teach children with talent at the school. When he isn't doing that he takes missions or stays at home to tend to his little farm. Much of his earnings from the school and missions still goes to the orphanage. Mikio remembers the war, the terror and the utter helplessness of facing a fully equipped and bloodthirsty jounin from a hidden village. Many of the children he teaches are too young to have seen the war at all, yet they talk about it as if war was a good thing. A ninja's life is war, and it is hell.
Personality: Mikio is an almost extremely open and kind-hearted man. He always has a smile on his face and a wink in his eye ready to go. He tells jokes and goofs off if he thinks he can get away with it, this is one of the reasons why the children likes him. He acts like a kid in some ways. But has shown to those around him that he can be respectable and responsible as well.
On the other hand, he has nightmares.

Special Traits
Shuriken specialist - Mikio has made shuriken-throwing into his own art and is pretty much centered around it. Not only can he throw with great precision, other skills that follows involves judging a trajectory, general eye-hand coordination and finger dexterity.
Designer - Most ninjas use shuriken, but Mikio has designed almost all of his from scratch. He has everything. One thing that separates his shuriken from the normal ones are that they’re not designed to pierce and stick to the target, but rather slash and bounce off.
Conservation is key - Almost every technique in Mikio’s arsenal uses up resources. A shuriken thrown cannot be used a second later. Therefor he is very careful about noting where they go after he’s thrown them for easy retrieval. He also has a good mind for keeping track of how many he’s got left and how long they’ll last.
Charismatic - Mikio is always smiling and laughing around people. This means that most see him as a happy fellow and he’s pretty well-liked in the village for it.
-====-
Equipment
Standard ninja equipment, leg pouch, an assortment of ninja wire, kunai and regular shuriken.
Six regular sized summoning scrolls containing almost every conceivable design of shuriken.
Scroll 1 & 2: Regular sized, normal shuriken. Roughly equivalent to ninja standard.
Scroll 3 & 4: Special shuriken. Here we find shuriken with special properties. Shuriken with holes that “whistle” as they fly. Shuriken with grooves that can carry poison. Hollow shuriken or shuriken with a dense core that flies at a different speed. Shuriken with slightly bent prongs that can maneuver in a certain way. You name it, he’s probably got it.
Scroll 5: Abnormal shuriken - The big ones, these hit the opponent with the same force as a sword would. Due to their size not as many can be carried in a scroll.
Scroll 6: Lost and found - A collection of shuriken that Mikio will use on special occasions. These are either failed experiments of his or shuriken left behind by someone else. Waste not, want not.
A healthy supply of exploding tags
A regular, straight single-bladed sword carried on his back.
Name: Dance of the first blade Classification Kenjutsu Rank: D Effect: (Literally this but with ordinary clones) The user creates two regular clones before proceeding to assault the enemy, with the clones attacking from two angles the user attacking from a third. The opponent will be hard-pressed to defend against all three simultaneously. Drawback: Only one attack is actually able to harm the opponent and if the opponent can see though the technique it is not hard to counter.
Name: Invisible sword assault Classification Shurikenjutsu Rank: C Effect: Originally developed for assaulting people inside houses from the outside, the user uses super-fast movement to jump between possible assault angles (windows). At each jump one or more shuriken are thrown at the target. The user always tries to use the target's blind spot as the next place to launch an attack from. In a best case scenario the user is able to attack from two directions almost simultaneously and make use of the opponent's blind spot. The user can potentially keep up the assault for as long as there are shuriken available. Drawback: This technique relies heavily on the element of surprise, once it has been seen through it should be easy to defend against or avoid.
Name: Rain of hellfire Classification Shurikenjutsu Rank: B Effect: Making use of a large number of both shuriken and exploding tags, the user sends a volley straight at the enemy. The goal isn't to hit, but to completely surround the target with the exploding projectiles. In a best case scenario there is no escape. Drawback: Uses a lot of resources. As the projectiles are not thrown to hit, an opponent that dodges early may evade the whole thing.
Well, Halvtand made his CS and I ended up being busier than I expected today, so while it would be fun to join this I'll have to drop out. I don't want to keep anyone waiting. Good luck with your roleplay, I hope it's a success!
