Nara, Katsu [Kumogakure Jounin]

Age : 31 Posts : 161

Basic Information:

Name: Katsu Nara
Secondary Title: N/A
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Physical Appearance:

Spoiler:

Katsu has long white hair which is held back by his Kirigakure headband, this headband instead of having a blue black, is colored blue. In fact, all of Katsu’s clothing is colored dark, he wears baggy black ninja pants, a black vest which leaves the middle of his chest, his abdomen and his arms exposed, a dark crimson cloth flags around his waist and legs. This was not made for stealth, but rather a frightening presence. When one is facing someone who uses chains and wires to tear people apart, with a lot of baggy clothing on top of them, it is a hard thing to face approaching them. However most would not know of the bloodline, therefore being unaware of what he can do, making him more approachable. Katsu has dark eyes, like staring into the clear night sky with no stars, this causes a lot of people to be aware of his actions because his eyes cannot be read like a normal person. On the back of his shirt and the arm of his shirt he has the Nara clan symbol on it.

Katsu always wears the same clothing, day after day, he has many sets of the same clothing. Although there may be minor differences in it, this is one of the ways that he ensures an ally can tell who he is. The clothing itself is nothing special, however it does make his appearance intimidating. Blood’s skin is pale, his arms are well toned as well as the rest of his body. Although he doesn’t have a lot of bulk muscle, he doesn’t need to with his bloodline abilities. Blood has a thin figure, he is 5’9 tall and wears thick leather boots which reach up to just below his knee. The backs of the boots have a more flexible material so his muscles can move freely within them during combat. Sometimes on days which are cold or raining, Blood wears a thick black cloth which hangs from his left shoulder over the puppet arm and sling, he also does this for formal meetings to avoid people staring at his puppet arm. When wearing the chain he exposes around his body, it wraps around his waist, over his right shoulder, down and to the left and around his waist again above the other wrap, down and around his right leg’s thigh, back up and over his right shoulder beside the other wrap until it finally comes down to his waist where it wraps around another two times. The chain then leads up inside some links which are attached to the bone beneath Blood’s skin until it comes to his right forearm. When he needs it, Blood will allow the chain to reel off his own body and be used from his right forearm like a whip. This chain can also be manipulated to move around him in defense.

Personality: Katsu is a silent guy he doesn't really adores or loves talking. He hates children ALOT. He wished kids never existed in HIS world. Though he always loves revenge when it comes to battling he has a little brother that doesn't seem to be annoying he feels the same as Katsu. He loves Ramen and rice too he adores eating while he has spare time and is hungry. He takes most missions seriously and some not because it may be easy he has completed this much missions.

Katsu is independent, secretly sensitive, and has a weird sense of humor that only some people get. Katsu has lived with his father for her whole life, so he learned how to keep the house in order, make dinner, and do other household things by herself, this developed her interdependency. Because of his independence he makes it seem to others that she is strong and that little bothers hi, but that is not the case. He takes things to heart too often and has his feelings hurt easily. His mood's contradict each other sometimes, and at some points in her life it is difficult to see how he will react.

Katsu is pretty bloodthirsty for his age, he prefers fight over flight. He is sometimes blinded by the inevitability of the situation, and this could lead to her death in the future. He is sometimes immature, and is often referred to having her mind in the gutter. She is also known for his flaring attitude, and her extremely bad language. Because of some of her bad qualities,he has not yet recieved a squad to train. Worse, children actually avoid him. It is well known that Katsu HATES children.

Katsu's independence will also be part of his eventual downfall. He liked to be by himself in combat, and dislikes teamwork, but can stand it. He does not have a strong sense of nationalism at all, and could be convinced to do things easily if they involve adventure and freedom. He likes Konohagakure, but he thinks inside that the outside world is more exciting and adventurous then in a walled in village.

Catch Phrase:

Thats all you got?
Tsch... You fail.
Get outta my way!
C'mon
*Sigh* Wanna Battle?
Sure.. people who break the rules are scum but people who leave their friends behind are more than a scum..

~Rank/Village Information~

Clan Information:

Clan Name: Nara
Location: Kumogakure
Clan Traits: To begin with, all members of the clan seem to have black spiky hair and soft boyish faces. Also they are usually of a lighter build and not muscular. They tend to have lower chakra reserves, but a very high chakra control to make up for it. Typically, it is the men who become ninja, but every so often a woman will join the ranks as well. All the men are classified genius's with IQ's that are generally higher then the mark of 200. They tend to be lazy and unwilling to work however, but they do have a strong will and hold greatly the term "comrade" as one of the most important words in their vocabulary.

The focus of their jutsu is a secret to other ninja, and only they can utilize it. The jutsu focus on the manipulation and control of their own shadow. Largely this revolves around one singular jutsu known as the Kage Mane or otherwise called Shaodw Imitation (see clan jutsu for more info), and this branches off into other various techniques. By Connecting their shadows to other shadows, they can cause the target to freeze by using chakra and the shadows as a medium for their control. When caught in this the opponent will mimic any movement the caster makes, but speech and thought remains independent. The opponents chakra system is also unaffected by this. Furthermore they can stretch their shadows a considerable length, up to 10m in total past its normal length, whatever that may be at the time by thinning the shadow out. This of course is not usable during the times of night. They can also use the shadows of other things to extend the length of their own by again using the shadows as a medium. They can not use lesser shadows for this, in other words, a shadow which is fainter then their own shadow, to extend it. Also it only extends by the length of the shadow it passed through and does not actually increase the size of their shadow.

Nara, Katsu [Kumogakure Jounin] 120px-Nara_Symbolsvg

History: The Nara clan is known for their manipulation of shadows and tending of deer, which graze in a large area of Nara clan forest. They have kept a book with medicine preparations and effects for generations which imply they are skilled in the area of medicine. Among the medicine described in this book are the secret pills used by the Akimichi clan. Despite being considered geniuses, the men from this family are prone to being lazy and hard to motivate. Ironically, they tend to be attracted to stern, overbearing women. However, there appear to be other factors as well. The Nara men seem to hold women in high esteem, and as a result, willingly defer to their female partners. An old Nara quote states "Without women, men can't be born. Without women, men go to ruin. Even the hardest of women will show a sweet side to the man she loves and respects."

The Nara clan seems to have a special relationship with the Akimichi clan and Yamanaka clan. Members of these three families have formed an "Ino-Shika-Cho trio," quite often, named after the first part of the names of the members. The Nara members are the Shika in the trio. "Ino," "Shika" and "Cho" are the names of three cards needed for a highly prized trick of "Inoshikacho" in the Hanafuda

Background Information

History:
Pre-Academy Arc:

Katsu had grown up on a farm outside the village of Kirigakure. He, there learned to farm, and grow and cook his own foods, like any normal person, but was isolated from the outside world. His parents kept him strictly on the farm. They taught him all he needed to learn, and his father was a former shinobi, long since retired, but he couls still teach a few basic techniques. When this took place, his father taught him how to wield a sword and fight in melee combat, and, since his father was from Mist Country, he knew nothing of the local ninjutsu or wind techniques, he only knew shadow, the complete contradictory combo of elements. He learned many basic techniques with a sword, those that require no sort of skill to do, same with the taijutsu, he learned enough to basically win a fight. He wanted to move into a bigger country the Fire country.

One raining day Katsu's dad died from a wierd unknown disease and so he traveled to Kumogakure. He started his years of studying then entered into the Ninja Academy. He then started his training at the Academy. He lived in a little hut but he had his times of freedom and sometimes times of bordemsome. He learned how to farm so he planted a miniture garden in the backyard and started to farm and grow vegtables and fruits. When he came to Kumogakure he made new friends and started a new life in a new country. He became a nice peacful kid and lived by himself because his mom decided to say no, from going with him, so did his little brother. Katsu then continued his nice live in Kumogakure no Sato.

As he progressed into his early teenage years, he found himself becoming more and more skilled in these arts, and also in the basic everyday life arts as well. He found this being his key to getting out of the farm, and to explore the world. It's not like he didn't love his parents, or the farm, he had nothing against them, he just didn't want to spend all his life in a bubble.

Academy Arc:

Katsu spent most of his academy days to himself. At the beginning, especially. He took to his studies mainly, and stuck to them. He had no time for friends if he wanted to be a successful shinobi, and that was his fathers' downfall, so he did not want to be a weak genin, like his father, though, it is hard for him to say that, because his father taught him most of the things he knows today. He excelled in all of his studies, and techniques, being at the highest of his class in all categories. He was made an example of a model student, but did not let this go to his head, so he just continued to do what he wanted to do, and that was to study and better himself.

Once he knew he was far enough ahead of all his fellow classmates, he then made time to make friends, and he made quite a lot of them. Most of them were ridden off as "nerds" but he didn't care, they were some of the more talented ones as well, and these were the only ones he would accept, because of their ability, they knew they were fearedm so in a way, if they wished, they could become bullies.

Katsu graduated out of the Ninja Academy and started now out as a Genin. He then was a full fledged ninja as a Genin, he was happy and so was all the other ninja who have graduated. He passed his test and he had a great report card. He had mostly A's and B's cause he studied hard at home and listened at school. His parents were happy and so was he. He obeyed rules, and trusted friends and, teammates. He was growing, and he became a great shinobi for the Leaf village.

Genin Arc:

Katsu began as a genin with high expectations, but he never held it to him to do what other people wanted him to do, only what he wanted, and those who had the power to make him do what he had to. He was assigned a team, with one whom had nearly died the previous year in the Chuunin Exams, and another that seemed to have no desire to do much of anything in the world, so he really didn't bother to talk to either of them, unless
A) it was necessary, or
B) One began conversation with him first. So, he just kept to himself once again, and just mainly spoke to his sensei. And he did this rarely as well, only if he needed help, which wasn't very often, or when he felt like he was surrounded by idiots, and needed intellectual conversation.

He entered the Chuunin Exams as the heavy favorite to win it all, at all costs. Katsu looked as the Chuunin Exams as more of a gate to the rank of chuunin, rather than an obstacle, he thought of it as a goal to achieve. He whizzed thru the written exams, and the first round was no problem. He had little struggle with the second. With the finals in his grasp, he was heavily favored yet again. He barely won the match, he left with a broken leg, and a sprained left forearm. Te ther contestant barely made it out alive. The final four remaining made chuunin, one was Katsu so he became a Chuunin of Konohagkure no Sato. He still lived alone and quietly everyday cause he never had any disurbance unless someone came to his home, for a important reason.

Chuunin Arc:

Katsu stood at the top of Konoha Mountain. He had gotten transported to Konohagakure, because they had a shortage of chuunin, after a recent accident that happened in the city. He gladly went here, he always dreamed about visiting Konoha. Here, he had met the famous Hokage, and got a mission, fulfilled it within a few days, and received another. This is really all he had done as his Chuunin months pressed on, and eventually, after he received more and more advanced missions, he was becoming stronger, and stronger everyday.

He got more advanced mission then before and soon, enough he could become a Jounin. He was proud of himselve for upgrading and improving his Shinobi skills and moves. He was 16 and he lived his life alone. His mother died from a different disase not the same as the one Katsu's dad had. He was becoming a great teenager but now he was about to become into a Adult. 5 years later he was 21 years old and now he could become a Jounin. He was sent to the Hokage's office to become a Jounin.

Jounin Arc:

Katsu began his Jounin days very unenthusiastically, not being in the mood most of the time to deal with genin, and he doeswn't normally have the patience, but he would like to test them, and see what they can do, and compare them to him when he was a genin. When his team was fully assigned, he looked at them as a good team. He had a ninjutsu specialist, medical ninja, and an archer/taijutsu, it was just truly unique. Katsu was pretty impressed with his team, the names were Hatori, Yuki and Kyo. They were very special and very strong at the time.

They completed 5 missions in the seven months they were together. Apparently, Katsu had taught them well enough how to make strategies, and balance out their uses in combat, and in the real world, when you are not being a shinobi, and just a civilian, because they had all obtained Chuunin after the Chuunin Exams, so he felt a sense of pride, and very slightly, self confidence, maybe he was meant to be the unsung leader, and he didn't even know this, for he had never gotten a chance, or an experience quite like this. Katsu's team was great and co-operated together. They learned a saying "Sure.. people who break the rules are scum.. but people who leave their friends behind are more than a scum.." the team was told to remember that saying because it might come in handy sometime, someday.

Role-Play Sample:
Katsu grimaced as he realized his reverse attack was pointless and released its hold on Yoshimo. He sensed him stop descending and so assumed he had hit another ledge of some sort on the side of the mountain. It was a mess. Yoshimo was not dead, nor was he defeated. Something in the back of his mind tingled. A surge of uneasiness. It was a feeling that he very rarely got, but when he did, it was something he listened to very well. His fears were confirmed just moments later, He could sense a strong spiritual presence from down below, around the same area Yoshimo was that. Unsure what to expect, he brought his dragon back to him. It circled around behind him, and hovered in wait.

Out of no where, Yoshimo erupted up the side of the mountain and into the darkening sky. He was ablaze of purple, Katsu became that much more worried. Yoshimo now brandished a katana, also cloaked in the purple what ever it was. He had to act quick, as he read the situation almost instantly and new that he was done if he didn't move pronto. Instead of performing a whole new jutsu, Taku decided to conserve his chakra, and use some that was already out of his system. He used the chakra that coated either of his arms and wrapped it around both of the swords which were quite a few feet away. At this point Yoshimo launched his katana down, directly at Katsu. Katsu flicked his finger and both of his own obsidian blades came rushing at him. It was a close call. As the other sword came down in an attempt to sever him, Taku brought his own, which had just arrived in his hands, up into an x formation, stopping Yoshimo's blade in between both of his.

That was not expected.

Yoshimo's sword continued to move downward even after being stopped. it was not a normal blade at all. Taku made an outward sweeping motion with both swords, bringing them to his sides, and sending the other flying through the air, back over the vast mountainous terrain, and away from Yoshimo.

He quickly spun on his heel to face Yoshimo. He wasn't entirely sure what he was going to do now. He had his dragon out, his armor was slightly incomplete now, and he had two swords coated in the lethal chakra which acted like a plasma like substance which could destroy almost anything not of spiritual being. Yet, Yoshimo had bounced back and it seemed as if he was ready for so much more. Katsu was pissed. He had seen the end of the battle, but he had been driven off course by the sudden turn of events. An unexpected road block.

He didn't let himself get discouraged though, that would have been the end of him. Instead he found new resolve and began to calculate once again. He had plenty of chakra still. He was a Sookato and as such had unnaturally large chakra reserves. In all he had sacrificed about 48% of his chakra so far. He was in good shape yet. He would have to find a new way to deal with Yoshimo. He would have to try and find what this new power was capable of.

As a Jounin, you are going to want to add your clan jutsu to your jutsu list, as it stands you have basic, fire, and wind. Beef up your arcs like patty said, put N/A for the special characteristics if you dont want any, and then bump it.

Age : 31 Posts : 161

Before you post up your Taijutsu and you're approved, I'd like to say that seeing as you're a Jounin, it would be best to have this jutsu.

Quote :: -Oxymoron much? How big is it? How far can it travel?

It's not that big to say it's a small size of the normal Dragon Flame Jutsu.
It can only travl up to 5 m away from the user.
Not much of it to say. (Oxymoron)

Also, you're missing this jutsu from the basic list -

I give you my approval.

Just get the Hokage's final holy approval and you'll get your color and rank and what not. He may want you to add some random Ninjutsu or something. You just never know with the Kages. TEEHEE

Age : 31 Posts : 161

I don't feel like adding more ninjutu. I have lots even though they are fire type and wind type. I PM'd Pat but didn't answer me back..
