Hiyo, I'm looking for a pair to create a small trio for a Naruto roleplay. The story is up in the air as I want to work with my partners in figuring out what works best for everyone.
Wanted to check general interest to see if there's anyone out there.
Feel free to post in this thread or PM me! Open to whoever's interested!
For this roleplay there are two ways I'm thinking of starting. I wanted to throw these ideas out there to see if it would interest you still.
First off would be: To start as a new team who is starting their Chunin Exams, to help us build relationships and a backbone for the dynamics, and then hit a timeskip to start their real adventures as young adults. This will give us the ability to develop things in-roleplay.
Second idea would be: To skip that backstory and start off as young adults already and fill in the backstory as we go on. This will require us to do more chatting in OOC to figure out how our characters all see each other and how they feel towards one another.
Both ideas aren't far off and again, leave a lot of wiggle room for ideas from you.
If this still interests the four of you (or anyone else), feel free to post a character sheet down below. I'll share a basic template, but you can always jazz it up if you'd like to add anything else!
I'll be looking at coheision as a whole to see which two ninjas will end up being in the finals! Again, looking for fun dynamics that will lead to a lot of interesting character development!
Either one doesn’t matter to me but I still plan to make a sage character and stuff. A character with a bunch of different sage art techniques and a few ninjitsu stuff. That’s their thing, Kiba’s the dog ninja tenten’s the weapon ninja and this one is the senjutsu ninja.
👐
Will add cs here and we can talk about the sage arts I add if you want
Personality: Celin is inherently levelheaded and peaceful, though she doesn’t smile, she can definitely cut loose and enjoy some ramen in town or get a kick out of life. She enjoys spending time studying the more far out aspects of the shinobi world, like senjutsu, the history of the Rinnegan and the Sage of Six Paths, or sealing jutsu that she rarely hears anyone talk about. Despite her kind and mellow nature, she is furious on the battlefield, like she’s a completely different person.
Background: Growing up in the ninja academy, Celin struggled with things like the basic clone jutsu or substitution, though she was great at taijutsu, which wasn’t special since most kids are. Celin one day read a book on the earth style, and asked her teacher if she could try to learn the rock wall. Her teacher found it odd that a student who was underperforming at ninjutsu wanted to learn something like this, but also understood that everyone learned differently.
As it turned out, Celin was a natural at things like the rock wall and mud clone. Her newfound skill awarded her a pass, and her teacher gave Celin an alternative learning path, she would still learn shuriken throwing and chakra control, but anywhere that a jutsu could be replaced with earth style, She’d learn differently.
A few years later she journeyed to Mount Myoboku to learn senjutsu from the Toad Sages, and it was by this point that her training began to feel like it was really coming together in her mind. She put earth style on the back burner and devoted her time to Sage Mode, eventually interweaving the two into her own genuine fighting style.
Fighting Style: Celin is a very grounded fighter, she doesn’t worry about fancy flips or disorienting an enemy. She hits them, and she hits them as hard as she can so they don’t get back up. Most of her fighting style revolves around Myoboku Senjutsu, since she has trained endlessly to base herself around the techniques of nature energy. If an encounter doesn’t last very long, she will simply fall back on the earth style, but if it’s something more serious that demands her full attention, Celin let’s her senjutsu training shine, whether it’s with her fists or a sage hammer.
Abilities:
Ninja Art : Summoning Jutsu Simmons a toad from Mount Myoboku. Earth Style : Rock Wall A literal wall of rock. Like a shield. Earth Style : Sphere of Graves A giant boulder that shatters when thrown. Earth Style : Mud Clone Mud clone.
Sage Art : Mountain Shield Like rock wall, but much bigger and stronger. Sage Art : Myoboku Hammer A Kanabo, too heavy to wield without sage mode. It is decorated with a toad skin pattern of brown and black. Sage Art : Canyon Slam A ground punch that splits open the earth, for trapping. Sage Art : Black Iron Sealing Pit Similar to Canyon Slam, but a straight drop deep into the earth, seals the target away with jet black chains. Sage Art : Toad Oil Celin inhales air, and exhales oil, very flammable oil that can be sprayed a decent distance for as long as she exhales. It burns well. Sage Art : Toad Clay The ground becomes soft and mushy beneath one’s feet until they fall through, when the ground hardens, they’re stuck. Sage Art : Golden Castle Armor Celin’s last resort. She shifts the nature of her chakra to earth, and grows a layer of rigid and hard skin. Her body grows heavy, like solid gold. Every ounce of chakra she has is poured into her skin, so the only way she can survive this is through sage mode. She becomes immune to physical attacks, but once the chakra begins to shift back to a neutral nature, the armor will will evaporate and she will be weakened.
Yo, sorry for not replying earlier. Yeah, I'm still interested personally, but I do have a few questions.
Like, when would this setting take place? Before/during/after the events of the series? Is the series even relevant or will this be more of an alternate timeline/world sorta deal?
Are the canon characters/clans/events a thing or nah?
Which village will this be focused around?
What kinda power level should we be aiming for? Like for example, let's say we went with option 1. These Genin taking the exams, should they be on par with Naruto and the gang during the Chuunin Exam arc? Or more like the Genin from Boruto? Or even Kakashi and the boys during the war?
What sort of expectations do you have for post pacing or length? --
I'm cool with either setup you listed tbh. No big preference here.
I mean, I gave the anime a try when it first started airing, but I couldn't stick with it. I don't think it was like terribad, but fuck, they wasted no time at all in going to Filler City. Wasn't really my cup of tea.

This would be in a more AU timeline.

Clans yes.
Which village will this be focused around?
Konoha, since it's the one I know most about.

I would say it's open in terms of skills. I mean, as a child, sure there are some prodigies, but not all of us are one. Some of us are just average or above average kids at best. I'm looking for characters who seem realistic to the pacing, not just someone who is wanting to be OP from the get-go, if that makes sense.
What sort of expectations do you have for post pacing or length?
I always aim and expect at least three solid paragraphs. Thing is, paragraphs can be varying lengths in sentences, so depends on each writer. But 3 paragraphs is what I'll set if we need a hard requirement.
I will S C R E E C H if this turns out like Boruto
I haven't seen Boruto, so no promises that it won't turn out like it, since whatever I do know about it is from the wiki pages.
I saw her! I skimmed the CS as I'm trying to give everyone the same treatment in terms of deciding (if there is any other interest). I think how you did your CS is fine, since I never specifically said if it had to be a child character or an adult, so a first draft or whatnot is totes fine with me as this is still the IC and not yet the actual thread!
