Yari is a short, athletically built young girl of 4'10 with a healthy, lightly tan complexion. Her grey-ish brown hair - though thick and smooth in texture - often appears unruly and wild, having been hastily cut into many uneven layers. Her round eyebrows are of a similar bushy thickness and her keen eyes are of a similar colour. She leaves very little skin visible, wearing simple kimono-style shirts and matching shorts with leggings underneath, and donning her iconic bear pelt jacket almost every day. Yari has red fang markings painted on both of her cheeks, a tradition that seems to have fallen out of her clan's use in recent decades, as well as elongated canine teeth and nails like most Inuzuka. A few light scars line her legs and arms from the fights her and her ninken used to have during her early childhood. When she's not engaging in any form of combat, Yari will wear a pair of small fang shaped earrings.

As a girl who has chosen to maintain the outdated traditions and values of her clan, it's not a surprise that Yari has inherited the notoriously hot tempered and intense personality that ran wild within Inuzuka clansmen of bygone eras. However, it is more her strictly disciplined and fiercely prideful nature that defines Yari as a person. From a young age she has undergone rigorous physical and mental conditioning in order to succeed as one of the last shinobi of her clan, which has brought about a scarily stern persona that obsesses over achieving only the absolute best and rejecting anything gained beneath that. The values Yari has drilled into her head over the years has made her deeply respectful and appreciative towards hardworking individuals and those who call themselves shinobi, especially towards the elderly Inuzuka ninja who pridefully fought in the wars before as an expression of their clan values. Though she is not one to criticise the rapid industrialisation of the village she has been lovingly raised in, Yari has become very protective of the ways of forgotten Inuzuka ninja, despite finding that concerning herself with the affairs of other clans in similar situations to be irrelevant.

But her infamy as a student is more prominent than her respectable drive to be the best Inuzuka kunoichi she can, and so Yari was isn't really seen an easy person to approach. She is harsh and critical towards both herself and her peers, unafraid of the backlash she experiences and using opposition to accentuate her pride and confidence. Although her otherwise polite and rather mature personality has its worth in the eyes of Yari's instructors, her classmates find that her frequent scolding tendencies and intense ambition to reach the top of her class makes her more irritating than likeable. Having become too focused on graduating with the best grades possible, Yari's friend list has fallen worryingly short. She has very few people who she actually gets along with, and so Yari often relies on her ninken partner, Kagemaru, for emotional support. Though extremely self reliant in nature, her refusal to open up about her insecurities has built up nothing but doubt in her capabilities as a ninja, as well as a demeanour that only grows ever the more harsh after each attempt from people trying to break past her tough exterior.

Nevertheless, Yari is still only a young girl not even past the Academy student stage, understandably lacking the experience and maturity of her village's higher ranking shinobi. Thankfully she is not without her warmer, more jovial side when she begins to open up to others; always keen towards learning new things, enthusiastic when practising clan traditions and going out in the forests to hunt, and showing a surprising burst of energy when telling tales about her clan or stories from the history books she reads. Like many Inuzuka, shinobi or not, Yari is extremely loyal to her village and compassionate to her ninken partner, and is willing to protect the things she values against those who choose to threaten them. Her competitive fighting spirit burns with a passionate youthful flame, and it only seems to be growing from here.

_{O R I G I N S T O R Y}

Being one of many born into an era of peace and prosperity had given the young Yari an early life without much worry or strife, being raised into a wealthy modern home within Konoha's bustling financial district. Her parents were happily married yet couldn't be anymore different people, her father being a leading fashion designer in his industry and her mother being one of the very few Inuzuka ninja that chose not to retire to a more peaceful lifestyle. Few shinobi veterans like Yari's mother from times of war and tragedy remained, as many modern clansmen saw benefits from turning away from their shinobi paths to pursue other careers; the Inuzuka became more known for their veterinarian and dog breeding expertise, their strong capabilities as ninja quickly being forgotten in recent decades. During her early childhood, it was uncertain as to what path Yari's parents would steer her towards.

It was one of the few things that caused the rare major conflicts between her parents, though it was her mother that would gain more influence over Yari during her early childhood. The woman was a traditionalist to a fault, introducing her daughter to old hunting weapons, animal pelts and faded paintings of a completely different era from a young age, the crowded basement in which all of these objects had been hauled into unlike the sleek and impeccably tidy apartments she was used to. Yari was completely engrossed by the stories and legends her mother would tell her, and expressed an honest eagerness to practice the same traditions as her mother had done when she was young. Her mother, not wanting to die along with and to preserve the endangered Inuzuka traditions, wholeheartedly agreed. Her father was obviously against this at first, as he felt doing those ancient practises would do little to benefit Yari in this modern age. What kept him from totally rejecting his wife's and daughter's requests however was his unspoken idea that the shinobi career was now a dying lifestyle, and so he accepted in hopes that Yari would eventually diverge from that prospect once she got older.

But her mother's personality and influence was strong enough to keep her walking down the shinobi path. By five years old Yari experienced the custom of painting red fangs on her cheeks for the first time, and from then she would continue to learn about old practises and delve into the history of her clan. By six she would have her new ninken partner Kagemaru by her side, and was already learning how to hunt in the Konohagakure forests under the guidance of her mother. The woman was an encouraging yet strict teacher, and soon Yari would come to learn of both the beauty and danger of the wilderness, her mindset vastly but gradually maturing with each camping trip. She would enroll into the Academy in the same year, and for the next seven years would be balancing her academic studies with her rigorous physical training in the forest. Over those years Yari has been hardened into the pseudo-hunter/ninja in training her classmates know her to be, having been disciplined by the harshness of nature's forests. She intends to continue her pursuit of the Inuzuka shinobi lifestyle, preserving all that she can of her clan's endangered traditions. But now, at only age thirteen, deep down inside Yari continues to struggle with balancing her modern and traditional lifestyles and values, and is still uncertain about the path she wants to take in life.

Since the overall theme of the RP is largely 'traditionalism vs modernism', I thought it would be interesting to make a character whose main internal conflict stems from them trying to follow the modern and traditional influences they were raised into, and how they cope with trying to balance two vastly different lifestyles together. I'd love to explore the confusion Yari will face when the time comes for her to truly have to decide what path she wants to take in life, as well as how she goes about trying to preserve her clan traditions when she's currently one of the only practising shinobi in her clan. Despite her personality Yari's still at an age where she has a lot of room to grow and change, so I'd like to see how her personality and outlook on the world develops as she matures into a fully fledged ninja and meets new people of differing ideologies along the way. Also, the concept of a ninja that uses hunting based skills is something I've always wanted to try out, and I'd like to develop and perhaps put my own twists on the Inuzuka clan as I think they have a lot of potential to have a deep history and rich cultural traditions that the canon never had. I also wrote Yari to have a more 'difficult' personality than what I'm used to writing, so developing her character along the way as she forms more positive relationships will definitely be satisfying to see!

TL;DR I think the Inuzuka clan deserves more attention and I want to write about a ninja/hunter girl doing cool ninja/hunter things.

• Sensor - As an Inuzuka, Yari is able to make use of her extremely accurate senses, especially her sense of smell and sound. Her tracking and monitoring abilities are unparalleled by the rest of her classmates, making her a unique asset to a team.

• Hunter - Her capabilities as a ninja are not limited to the standard use of shuriken and chakra. Yari is able to hunt animals, make traps and survive pragmatically and resourcefully in the wilderness like it's second nature. She is easily able to apply these skills to situations more suited to shinobi, such as using her traps to capture escaped criminals and such. Her aptitude for hunting has also made Yari notably skilled at concealing her tracks and current whereabouts, which she has adapted to suit the 'hit and run' fighting style of her clan.

• 'Beast Human Taijutsu' - As a result of her daily exercises and practise of her clan techniques, Yari has become adept at utilising the basics of the original Inuzuka fighting style. Her skills in both taijutsu and ninjutsu are thus on a respectable level, although it is only her taijutsu that is able to maintain a just above average ranking in her class, while her ninjutsu ranks at simply average.

• Marksmanship - Yari's accuracy using projectile weapons is a notable skill of hers, and is considered slightly above average amongst her peers. Although she can wield kunai, shuriken and even a bow and arrow with reasonable confidence, her current skill level still limits her from being able to use such a weapon outside of hunting for game.

• Well read - Yari loves a good history book, and may spend her free time relaxing in libraries or going through her mother's old books. As a result she holds a great deal of knowledge about her village history and clan history, and can often answer questions concerning such subjects with ease.

• Cooking - The girl sure knows how to cook up a mean pot of venison stew. One of her top three hobbies that rival reading and game hunting.

_{T O O L S}

• Spear - Although not necessarily and expert, Yari is able to use her spear efficiently. She can use it for a variety of purposes, usually for direct attacks or throwing at short distances. One of her most often used tools.

• Wire - Probably Yari's favourite. She finds the possible uses of this underrated tool to be almost limitless, and she thus carries many rolls with her.

• Go, Kagemaru! - Yari's ninken partner. Although they got off to an incredibly rough start when she first got him - she even has the scars to prove it - the two have managed to form a strong and inseparable bond over the years. Kagemaru is an extremely valuable asset to Yari as both a ninja and a hunter, and is seen as not only a lovable companion, but a loyal friend. A very good boi.

Also, i'm making one of the Jonin who also happens to be sn Inuzuka, so we'll probably have to discuss clan atuff l8r, as well as how well they know each other.

@Raijinslayer

it just dawned upon me after going through this thread again that there's a discord so i should probably hop on that?

I just thought traditional hunters and the Inuzuka clan somehow went hand in hand with each other, but it's cool, we can talk ideas some time

It was so unexpected, so unusual, this unfamiliar rumbling beneath Charlie's feet. Nothing prepared her for a painful face plant onto the ground beneath her as her legs were knocked off balance. As she snapped her head around to seek the source of the sound, fanning away the cloud of her now burst open flour sack, Charlie saw it. A skinless red hand - a huge skinless red hand - crushed the top of Shiganshina's protective wall with its destructive grip as it pushed its massive head above it. It was like she had lost her ability to breathe in those few seconds as she gawked at that horrifying face, the hairs along her arms and legs and entire body standing up the longer she stared. That steaming red face had burned itself into Charlie's memory.

The explosive destruction of the district's last remaining defence was the last thing Charlie saw before she was on the ground again, this time, blacked out for a good two minutes.

She woke up to distressed shouts and terrified screams, and within the ten seconds in which she had been trying to regain her consciousness, Charlie had been trampled on twice. She sprang up to action only to feel an excruciating pain throbbing in the back of her head, and a familiar metallic scent wafted up her nose. Despite her feeble attempts to run in whatever direction these other terrified people were, Charlie slowly managed to gain a rough idea of the situation.

The gate that defended her home from the titans beyond had been shattered, and now she was running for her life to escape her own death. It wasn't a dream. It was all real, the pain in her head was real, the screams were real, and oh god, the dead bodies that painted the decimated streets in their blood were all too real. Her breathing quickened, her legs tensed, her eyes burned, and soon, Charlie was running just as frantically as the other desperate civilians, enduring the pain from her bleeding head.

She had no idea where she was going or what she was doing, it was unlike her to be this influenced by such a chaotic atmosphere. Her heart was now thumping as loud as the back of her head as panic and adrenaline surged through her veins. Charlie simply followed in the direction towards the innermost gate where most people had headed, unable to count the amount of times she had almost tripped over a shredded corpse. It was all she could do in the face of chaos and carnage.

It was only when she was in a totally unfamiliar area, having been carried by the directions of other panicked civilians, did Charlie finally realise what she was missing. Her heart seemed to stop in that second.

Father.

…mother.

Charlie continued to run.

By the time the sun had begun to rise, Charlotte had already made her way out of her house to accompany her father to work; it was almost like every other early morning, making essential preparations at the bakery for what was usually a hectic working day. Up by five, freshly kneaded dough in the oven by six, and customers flocking in to buy either their breakfast or lunches for later by seven. The busy cycle of baking and selling would go on for hours after that, until the place got locked up at around eight in the evening. The spring season brought warmer weather and longer days, so around this time of year Charlie would be in the kitchen for even longer hours. 'Bothersome', she often called it, though not as often as she did during the horrid, unbearably hot summer months. Working near a baking hot oven for most of the day was more than enough heat for the young girl.

But this morning would instead start off with Charlie trecking off to the local market, with the kitchen running low on ingredients again. A dozen or so bags scattered across the kitchen wouldn't be enough to last the rest of the day, with the usual work shift eating up about a thirty ten kilogram bags of flour in a day. By half seven in the morning, Charlie was out on the streets again, making the long walk to the inconveniently far marketplace to bring back some much needed flour and yeast. With customers already beginning to pile in — even at this hour, her father suspected there wouldn't be this many people — it would become Charlie's responsibility to bring the ingredients back herself with her father very much occupied so early in the morning. With only half the man power than usual, she could only groan at the thought.

It was almost eight now, and Charlie had managed to purchase what she needed; exactly ten bags of flour and yeast which she would walk to the bakery and back for, one at a time so she wouldn't tire out so quickly at this time of day. She didn't want to make any more inconveniences for herself. Hauling one bag of flour over her shoulder, the real work began. If there was one thing she was grateful for, it would be her skill at carrying bags of flour with much less struggle than the average person her age. Any opportunity to make work easier was very much appreciated.

It was when Charlie was on her second round of flour that she heard the announcement for the Survey Corps' return. A crowd had already started to gather on the main roads, which had some of the younger children excited from all the commotion. Charlie knew the Survey Corps to be infamous for its low success rate expeditions, countless lives of soldiers being lost to those monsters beyond the walls. She had heard all of the critical ramblings from her mother; Charlie figured that it was perhaps a way of putting her off joining, if she was hilariously foolish enough to even do so.

Yet a gut sense of curiosity kept her from breaking into faster walking speed, and Charlie found herself matching the slow, solemn pace of the soldiers as they drearily piled into the streets. Even in such a chaotic gathering of people she could feel the psychological trauma of the soldiers' return, their miserable faces and tattered green cloaks caked in dirt and blood becoming a heavy weight inside her stomach.

But it wasn't a feeling that would last for very long; this wasn't the first time Charlie had seen such a sight, and unfortunately, it likely wouldn't be the last. She let out a quiet, casual sigh, turning away from the distant sight of the Survey Corps and beginning to pick up the pace again.

Charlie had become much too accustomed to this feeling to express concern for such an event. Like many others in Shiganshina, she would continue on with her life, with the return of the Survey Corps being nothing more than a small bump in her daily routine. Today would be just like other days, nothing less and hopefully, nothing more.

_Nickname

'Charlie'

_Age

16

_Appearance

Charlie is a tall, rather heavy set young woman, whose stature of 5'11 still continues to increase with age. She's one to make full use of her height, carrying herself with a rigid posture that accentuates her confidence and youthful arrogance. Her pale blonde hair is cut to her ears, and her honey brown eyes are known to show small glints of her sly and cunning nature.

_Biography

---

With the blood of former military soldiers pumping through her veins, it would certainly become Charlie's destiny to follow in the footsteps of the family members that came before her. Being the only daughter to a retired Garrison member, Charlie's fate was decided once her birth had been declared successful. From childhood her mother wanted to ensure that her daughter was to undergo training as a recruit once she was of appropriate age, following a strict tradition that had ran on for centuries ever since the first establishment of a military force within the walls. Having been subjected to many of her mother's ramblings concerning such topics at such a young age, Charlie's ideological influences were made very clear.

Despite living her childhood in relative normality, there was little Charlie remembers being content with as a young girl. Her father, a moderately popular baker in the neighbourhood, was one of the few things that kept her living the rest of her childhood in misery and annoyance. She found peace with the humble man, spending most of her days helping him in the bakery in order to avoid every possible interaction with her mother. As a result, her body grew strong and healthy as she learned to endure the hard labour that came with kneading dough continuously for hours and hauling sacks of ingredients into the kitchen at the break of dawn. Any sort of freedom from the intense personality of her former soldier of a mother was loved and appreciated, but the late veteran's influence only grew larger as Charlie stepped into the early ages of adolescence.

Although her mother's disciplinary actions never took a physical turn for the worst, she intended for her harsh words to strengthen Charlie's mind and spirit as preparation for the military life she planned to compel her to. But having her mother constantly breathing down her neck about fulfilling her duties as a protector of the walls did little to strengthen the familial bond they were supposed to have, and Charlie simply grew more sour and cynical with age in this already difficult period of her life. Barely scraping the age of fourteen, Charlie wanted nothing more than to escape her tense home atmosphere; she began to think of joining the recruits simply on that basis, even if she would have to tolerate the even more difficult military lifestyle. If it meant she could block out her mother from her life entirely, Charlie would take any opportunity to go against her mother's intentions. There was something in the back of her head that wanted just a little bit more in life; something that wanted change.

But the fall of the walls her mother had once so ambitiously defended was not the change Charlie was expecting.

_Personality

---

First impressions of Charlie often paint her to be nothing more than a level headed yet carefree individual that enjoys a good chat from time to time. But amongst the cadets of her age she has become infamous as the often flippant girl who speaks with an iconic presumptuous attitude. Blunt, confrontational and sarcastic to a fault, Charlie possesses an audacious and twisted sense of humour that revels in the act of riling up and teasing people for her own amusement. The girl certainly comes off as distastefully playful and obnoxiously difficult to irritate — seeing as she's the one usually doing the irritating — yet the calm confidence she carries herself with despite having such a bold way with her words is somehow intriguing enough to keep people entertained in the long run.

But it is Charlie's extroverted and mischievous front that hides the results of a strict and severe upbringing; rather than her mother's harsh words becoming a fuel for Charlie to achieve greater things, the girl has been left noticeably unmotivated to reach her full potential as a way of going against her mother's desires. She has yet to find a point in trying her actual best in the military other than to be freed from the restrictive grips of her mother and thus her performance in most activities is often regarded as painfully average. Charlie has a lot going for her; both daring and unflappable in nature, she's not one to succumb to pressure easily or make illogical decisions in hasty situations, but it seems like she uses it all for the wrong and needless reasons. Her strengths that shine in certain areas are but a mere glint within the shadows of her unenthusiastic nature. While she certainly doesn't lack confidence and even cooperation, Charlie just views taking up big responsibilities and positions of leadership as too much of a bother. The girl is simply a spawn of wasted potential in the eyes of her superiors.
