He stands at an average height however his afro gives the false impression that he is actually taller than he is. He wears a leather jacket with a tank top underneath and black slacks with dress shoes.[/b] 【Full Name】 Akira Shiroyama 【Age】 16 【Gender】 Male 【Birthplace】 Kumogakure (Raised in Konoha) 【Bloodline】 The Shiroyama were well known in the Village Hidden in the Clouds for their philosophical minds and impressive swordsmen. 【Rank】 Chūnin [b]Combat reports.[/b] Gathered from evaluation reports after missions. 【Fighting style】 Akira's fighting style is based purely on flow and instinct; he uses the momentum between alternating between ninjutsu, taijutsu, and his katana in order to branch together long and powerful combos, creating a "flow" type pattern in his attack. For defense he uses this technique to counter his opponents and use their own momentum against them. His natural affinity is Wind Release. 【Ninja techniques】 A rank techniques: [url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Rasengan]Rasengan[/url] B rank techniques: [url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Leaf_Strong_Whirlwind]Leaf Strong Whirlwind[/url] [url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Shadow_Clone_Technique]Shadow Clone Technique[/url] [url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Wind_Release:_Wind_Cutter_Technique]Wind Release: Wind Cutter Technique[/url] C rank techniques: [url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Leaf_Great_Whirlwind]Leaf Great Whirlwind[/url] D-E rank techniques: Basic Jutsu 【Personality】 Akira is a quiet man, appearing serious and straightforward most of the time. He's very mature for his age and expects to be taken seriously and gets frustrated when not treated seriously. Akira tends to be a loner and disapproving when other people barge in on him, however once you get to know him he's very respectful of others and their situations. He will often go out of his way to help others or provide them with support during tough times and dangerous situations. He is also very creative and intelligent when it comes to fighting techniques and strategy. 【History】 Raised in a homeless shelter Downtown, Akira was bullied for most of his childhood and he had nobody to watch his back. With bullies constantly harassing him, he was constantly robbed of the money whenever he could scavenge up some. The day came when he had enough and decided to steal a katana from a ninja tool shop, hoping he could scare them off with it. When the day came when Akira stood up to the bullies with the blade and scared them off; after the bullies ran off, a man known as Okano Rynatyo approached him and was amazed at the boy's natural skill with the sword and offered to mentor him. Okano taught Akira not only taught Akira some sword tricks, but plenty of ninjutsu as well, including the rare "Rasengan" technique that was invented by the Fourth Hokage himself. After a few months of training, Okano believed that he taught Akira everything he knew except one last thing: Perfect Sage Mode. Okano believed that Akira could achieve this feat on his own, and he also believed that it was time for Akira to find his own destiny in the world. Without even saying goodbye to his pupil, Okano vanished from the village without a trace and has yet to be seen again. 【Family ties】 Akira's mother did not survive his birth and his father ran out before he was born, so an "unknown" Cloud ninja dropped him off as an infant at Konoha. Therefore he has no significant family members at the moment. 【Dreams and Fears】 Akira dreams to one day settle down, start a family, and hopefully one day find Okano to thank him. His biggest fear is dying, as he's not sure what exactly comes after it. [/hider]
