I was thinking about just rolling with it, and then adjusting the motivation for it as necessary when told otherwise. regardless I will need to post soon though, as I will have little time to do so again until friday.
I've joined and left several RPs now in search for something that I can really stick with but nothing's really working. I think I just need a break from RPs all together for a while. Talked a bit with Minato about me not being too fond of my character but I think I'm overall just tired of forum RPing, at least for a while.
I'm sorry if I'm disappointing anyone. I've written this message to pretty much three or four other RPs and I think I can take the hint, I should shelve forum RPing for a while since nothing seems to work for me.
Terribly sorry everyone, but I am pretty sure that I'll stop Role Playing now for a while. No RP has worked for me in a very long time and the issue is with me, I'm just worn out.
I hope this goes well for everyone, truly do. You've all made really interesting characters, and I hope you all manage to continue this RP. Sorry if I'm making things difficult, though slugging through something that I can barely keep my interest up for isn't really viable.
Kind of tired of writing a 'Goodbye' to every RP I'm in because I lose my interest all the time, so I'll stop Role Playing all together for a while and see what happens.
Have a good RP, everyone.
Been there, done that. No worries mate. I have just gotten back form over a year of absense (where have all the unicorn avatars gone?)
Shame you don't feel like sticking it out for one more try. I still had (and still have) high hopes for this one.
But I know the feeling all to well, So there will be no judging allowed! I hope you change your mind, if not;
As long as someone post, my intest will never fade!@Shard It just so happens that i had a busy weekend...
But yeah, if someone doesn't post soon, I do vote we continue without them for now. As long as we don't exclude the possiblity of others being present, they can still step in(or be left out.) at any time.
Also, @The Mad Hatter are you sure you want to go through that again? /refers to our last conversation... something about sand not being the worst.
(Ps, I just got home form a night in the bar with friends/It is possible that I may be drunk, so please excuse any errors or bluntness in this post.)
EDIT: Also, I realize we started late, partly because of me. So excuse me for being a hypocrite aswell.
@Masaki HarunaOr you can just make the beginning of your post, ask @Minato Namikaze what the outcome will be before (continiueing?). -Is this spelled correctly, it looks weird.
In anycase. I am sure we have a public place to roll somewhere, Tough I am not entirely sure yet what you should roll against.
(This has been written on my phone, so please excuse any errors.)
Name: Shouta Shimizu Gender: Male Age: 17 Appearance: -small and slender -otherwise looks physically fit -black hair -common chuunin vestment.
Personality
Traits: -Quick to act Shouta Usually acts before thinking. Letting him guide by his sense of morality, -instead of possible conciqueses.
-Courageous Very little scares Shouta. Probably a good thing if you don't tend to consider what can happen to you if you act without thinking.
-True rival He has a hard time accepting it when people out-preform him. It drives him to try harder.
-Easily encouraged Shouta tends to get easily motivated when people praise him. In fact, praising himself works just as well. No wonder he tends to do it a lot.
-Cheerfull to a fault. Not much can bring shouta's attitude down. Always smiling and joking. Even when he isn't feeling great, he acts like nothing is wrong.
-Protector When shouta Likes or respects someone. He will quickly jump to their defense, even at personal cost.
-Stubborn Once shouta gets something in his head, Its nearly impossible to change his mind.
Likes/Dislikes: Shouta likes; -to be recognized for his abilities/talents -being better at something than his friends/teammates -succeding -apples and other fruits -the colour blue. -the winter
Dreams/Aspirations: 'Patience is a virtue, Only the warrior that watches for it's time to strike, and puts its opponents off-balance, can be a true shinobi.' Or so his father often told him.
Shouta is the eldest sons to a clan that wears it's honor highly up it's sleeve, and with their own 'way of the ninja'. There is little place for personal freedom, or a mind that strays from this simple code. Usually being the eldest son of the clan would be steam-pressed and readied to one day inherit the position of clan leader. However, if Shouta lacks one thing, it would be patience. Nor does he have the raw talent that would befit the head of a clan. As such, The clan elders deemed him unfit for the job. Shouta desperately tried to change, Tried to regain his families trust. But even then, there was no way to keep the eyes filled with disappointment off his back.
If there is one thing Shouta wants above all else, is to show the elders, and the rest of the clan. That they made the wrong choice. He wants to show them that his way of the ninja, is just as good, or even better than what came before.
In short, shouta wants to prove himself to everyone, especially his clan, show them that he has what it takes to be a great shinobi. Even if he never changes who he is.
History:
After the 4th great ninja war, a new era emerged. Times where changing, and the village of Amegakure could not stay behind. Not everyone in the village agreed, but eventually Amegakure ended up joining the great shinobi alliance. It isn't exactly clear where the Shimizu clan originally came from, or why and when they joined the Amegakure, however it was at this time that his ancestors started to make a name for themselves in the village. and even earned world renown.
Shouta, born the eldest son of the leading family of his clan. It should have been his destiny to to take over his fathers position, and lead his clan to even greater glory. -But not all destinies pass without resistance. While the leader of the clan should be calm, collected and strong. Shouta is more of the impulsive sort. Often deemed disruptive, and with NO notable talent. Even before he had joined the academy there had been many whispers among the clan on whether Shouta should be prepared for the inheritance, or surpassed completely. But when Sato, his two year younger nephew left the academy top of his grade and in record time, the whispers grew louder and more numerous. why pick the trouble maker that was 'just average' over the prodigy that Sato obviously was?
-Unworthy- The whispers haunted him for many years. Even if shouta can be a little dense at time, he could not help but feel unwanted. His father rarely trained with him, instead focusing all his attention of the genius, some whould say 'as a good clan leader should'. -It's just so unfair. But even when passing him in the halls of their home. His father seemed to avoid him altogether, often picking up his pace when their paths crossed. Instead Shouta had to learn most of what he knows by watching. Often you could find him spying on Sato and HIS training, only to later try and mimick him out in a secluded place in the forest. He wasn't just about to lay down and let that little twerp walk all over him!
By the time his nephew became a chuunin at age 14, while the 16 year old shouta was still a genin. The whispered grew unbearable and out of control. Shouta had grown strong, of this was no doubt, Stronger perhaps even than he was excpeted too when had finished the academy. his own promotion to chuunin would follow only 6 months later. But before then the damage had already been done. Beaten to the rank of chuunin by his much younger nephew, had twisted the loud whispers ito screams and demands. The rest of the clan wern't going to allow Shouta to become their next leader, not while Sato was still the more obvious choice. Even his father could no longer fight it and had to sent Shouta away. For the greater good of the clan, he had been disowned. Though still a member of his clan, he lost his father, AND his birthright.
When the chuunin exchange assignment reached him, Shouta was eager to leave. When he was Young, he had felt unwanted by his clan, and now he knows it to be true. Even now that the matter is settled, the whispers always remain. -look, that is the weak one.-
Ninja Information
Clan: Shouta is part off the Shizimu clan. Wich is an offshoot off the Yuki clan, some two-hundred or so years ago. Like the Yuki clan, the Shizimu clan has the ability to combine water and wind nature chakra into ice based attacks. The shizimu clan is sometimes revered to by it's nickname: 'the blue blades of Amegakure.'
Chakra Nature: Water and ice (and some wind to make the ice, however somehow he can't use wind chakra by itself.) Chakra amount: 5/10
Taijutsu: His taijutsu he inherited from his clan. It uses a set of one-armed blocks and sweeping kicks to put the opponent off-balance and keep his other hand firmly on the blade at his back for a quick decisive strike. Shouta is not very skilled in this yet, and often defaults to useing both hand for defense when pressed. Fortfitting his chances for a quick counter with his blade.
Ninjutsu:
-Gleam cut Technique[Shizimu speciality][Ice release] The user condenses a layer of moist around his weapon to make it stronger and sharper. As a result the blade will hum with the slight blue glow that gave the shimizu clan it's nickname.
-Hiding in Mist Technique [D-rank][water-release] one causes a mist to spring forth by either lifting up water from a pre-existing source, or expelling water from their mouth. They can then go in and out of sight at will from within the pearly-white realm. The mist's thickness is controlled by the amount of chakra kneaded into it, and can block sharingan and rinnegan users.
-Ice Release: Spear wall [Shimizu speciality][Ice release] A think wall of ice forms in front of the caster at an uncanny high rate. This wall is tough enough to stop most incoming attacks, aswell has the ability to form 'lances' of ice the rapidly chase their target within a 10 meter range of the wall. Usually in combination with a leaping attack from the user to form a two pronged attack.
-Ice Release: Javelin [Shimizu speciality][Ice release] The user condenses the moisture in the atmosphere into weapons of ice that can then be used for close-range combat or shot at a target. The weapons can be formed from great distances away.
Inventory -A short katana with a deep blue hilt strapped to his back, signature of his clan. -A chuunin vest of the Amegakure village -A decent array of kunai and shuricken hidden in the vest's pockets.
Here it is; a picture is still forthcoming. I could not find one I liked, so I decided to mush some things together. this has taken me WAY more time than I had planned, and now I am to tired to continue. Sorry for any delays this may have caused.
also I may have to change a few small things, as I kept changing the history around a bit, some things may no longer line-up perfectly. Just dotting a few 'I's if you will. (or maybe dotting some 'eyes' if I leave 'm ^^ ) all in all, I am ready to be judged.

So... I just got this hunger that I cannot quench.
I was just looking for a Naruto themed RP. Frustrated that I couldn't find one in the usual corners I look when I try to find hidden things. -Not a single one, can you believe it?
But here you are, far outside my known realm called 'casual' I have finally found you!
Is there still room? If so, Is it okay if I take a little time to write my sheet? It looks like It needs to be a lot more inclusive then I am used to. But a challenge never slowed me down! -unless it stopped me dead in my tracks ...you can't win them all.
If you want to start ASAP, I can usually think of a good reason for being late/willing to change my story for the greater good.
Thursday...? -if I am not done by Thursday you can write me off!
