[OOC] Shinobi: The Ninja Way

[Innue]

Understandable. I'll keep an eye out so I can get a post up quickly after you and Nero do so we can continue to progress.

[Aeris]

I will post as soon as I get on a computer.

[Innue]

I know someone who might take the empty spot if you remove Phoenix.

[The Traveler of Realms]

Hey Squad 1 would you rather I post Daisuke getting to the training grounds first, or your characters arriving first since they are running?

Okay, well if they move slow on it, he's really craving a ninja RP and he isn't currently involved in any RPs. I can vouch for him.

And I'll post soonTM. Currently in a LoL game.

Rank: 
Formerly Chunnin, now Genin, pending re-evaluation of his skills.

Chakra Nature:

Personality:
Aro is a young man with a cheerful attitude to life. He enjoys living, eating food and looking at the beauty of the world. He enjoys games, be it card games or contests, for he is a rather competitive person. Very little brings him down, and even less things truly bother him. He's a kind young man, helping those who're weaker than himself, and always there to be a shoulder to lean on for people around him. Be it friends or strangers. He believes that all the while the power of his clan is impressive, you should never become ignorant to those around you. For even in the weakest of people, you can still find incredible power.

History:
Aro's history started a long time ago. 35 years ago, to be exact. In a age rather different from the world today. It was the days of the first Hokage. Aro's father was a jounin, his mother was the rather ordinary stay at home mom. His father was a diplomat for the first hokage, having known the kage for many years. His father traveled to many villages, talking to their leaders or other diplomats, and on some of these trips, where the dangers were minimal Aro got to come with his father. When Aro was six years old he had already started teaching the arts of the shinobi under his father. They traveled to a place not far away from the hidden leaf village. They desired to meet with the head of a certain clan of warriors. Allies of the Village hidden in leaves. Inuzuko Sachi was the leader of the clan, having taken over from his father just a few years earlier.
Inuziko had meeting with Aro's father for many hours, and Aro played in the compound with the kids of the Hon-Clan. However, there was one kid, the same age as Aro, whom was different. He was as cheerful as the other kids, but he just seemed stronger. The boy's name was Sai Sachi, and he, like Aro, dreamt of becoming a great shinobi.

The two of them became rivals.Years passed, Aro and Sai both enrolled into the academy of Konohagakure, both of them finishing top of their classes. They were both nine years old now, and they were able to match adults in strength. However, Aro knew that Sai was stronger than him. Sai was always ahead of Aro. He won nine out of ten times when they fought, however, regardless of how bad their sparring matches got, they always ended on friendly terms, joking and eating food. Aro and Sai's friendship bloomed, and as Sai grew exponentially stronger, their rivalry eventually ended. Sai was gifted the title of head of his clan, only 14 years old, and that was when Aro made a decision. It hurt the boy to know that he wasn't as strong as his old-friend, however, he was also happy for Sai, and decided to cheer for his friend, rather than spite him.

Their friendship continued to bloom, despite their rifts in strength. Sai was there to cheer on Aro when Aro took his final test to be promoted to a chunnin at the age of 15, four years after Sai had passed the exams.

Aro's life after becoming a chunnin was to be expected. It all changed when he took a certain mission. Tracking a ninja who was famous for using ice-based jutsu. Known as the "Killing Frost". Aro's mission was strictly a observation mission, not to fight the enemy, but wait for backup, since the enemy was far superior to himself. Aro, was observing, but when the ice-shinobi attacked a group of wounded shinobi, Aro had to intervene. His fire-release gave him an edge up on the enemy, even managing to damage the enemy shinobi severely. Thus allowing the wounded shinobi to escape.

Aro's and the Ice-ninja's fight carried on for a bit longer, fighting all the way up into the mountains, until Aro finally cornered the criminal, about to deal the finishing blow inside the comfort of a cave, disaster struck.
That's when Aro's life ended. Killing Frost counter-attacked. Using a powerful ice technique that completely encased Aro in ice. The technique kept him alive, but still dead. So cold that he couldn't think, couldn't move, but it still kept him alive, to forever be locked away and forgotten.

That was 19 years ago. And now, the ice has started to melt, letting Aro out of his double-decade long prison, unaware of how much time that has passed.
Arozuko now has the face the world that he left, having no clue how long he spent in the block of ice.

Phoenix is busy so what should team 3 do? do we post without him?

[Aeris]

As me and Asuu decided; not only Phoenix was somewhat unfit (not saying this rudely, mind) but inactive. So we officially removed him from this roleplay; the CS above your post is the one taking his place.

Which by the way, Hillan, I will let Asuu review instead of me. c:

[Hillan]

That's fine, me thinks.

[Raineh Daze]

But... why would you put an ex-chuunin with fresh genin?

You read his Backstory, and you'd see why. :P

okay, thank you for your answer

But I did. That doesn't answer the question of 'why would someone with the skillset of a chuunin be put in with a bunch of ninja who're going to be spending the next month or something painting fences and the like'. Seems all-around bad for team cohesion: everyone else is outclassed, he's held back.

[Innue]

The only thing I'd be curious about is how long until the hibernation sickness is completely worn off?

Also, theoretically, Touzoku could alleviate much of the problems with that.

[Makatsume Haru]

@Raineh, hey do you post first or do we let Traveler post first?

[Yog Sothoth]

the real question i have is how do we replace Teru with Arozuko since our characters were talking directly to him?

[Innue]

Probably just going to need to kill him off randomly.

He's outclassing them in experience, not strength. His biggest setback right now is the hybernation sickness, it'll take him time to adjust to not being at full power.

@Innue: I'd like to think it'd be plot-convinient, when the others have caught up to him, basically.

... and experience doesn't count for more than raw power?
