It's both for funsies, and to help support the RP, trying to make many interactions at once :)
Granted, I tend to make either influential, or powerful characters.
It's why my next two characters are an A rank missing nin (though not quite a criminal) who is starting a religion of sorts as well as gradually forming a following.
My other one is an S rank who is a Senju-custom clan hybrid, with a modified version of Mokuton. He'll be the Uzukage's grandson.
My third character is the daughter of the Hokage, she's an uchiha. Not sure what her personal goal will be, but my goal for her to achieve in the RP is basically to be both very fun in the evil kinda way, and fun in how she will go out of her way to do whatever her father or her pleases~
Create some inter village tension perhaps >:3
My kage's purpose is both to lead Kumogakure and try to better the world by purifying it; Whether that is good or bad is to be seen.
Nazomeku, Eiji (my jounin) is a wildcard, as is my genin.
