Due to his occupation as a ninja he has trained his body to the breaking point so he has strong, lean muscles. This gives him an athletic build that grants him a balance of strength and speed. He has auburn hair, light blue eyes, and pierced ears with black earrings in them. Sano wears a simple outfit of a black tank top and white jogger pants. He wears normal black sandals and has regular ninja tool pouches attached to his person. [b]Summary:[/b] An ambitious youth who will always try his very best to succeed. [b]Age:[/b] 16 [b]Rank:[/b] D [b]Village Affiliation:[/b] Hidden Leaf Village, Kahonagakure [/CENTER] [h2]Person Information[/h2] [hider=Personal Info] [b]Fame:[/b] -- [b]Personality:[/b] The best word that would describe Sano is ambitious. He's a very motivated and fiery young man. An extrovert to his core, Sano is very social and has a knack for making friends and attracting people to himself. He has a calm, confidence about him that tends to either aggrivate people or instills respect for him in them. His personality usually puts him in leadership positions but sometimes he's not the best suited for that position. His ambition can cause him to be impatient and quick-tempered. At times he can become easily annoyed and his fuse is sometimes shorter than he'd like. On top of that, his ambition to become stronger can cloud his judgment. Sometimes he goes to extremes when it comes to deeper emotions like love and hate. When he loves, he falls hard. On the other hand, when he comes to hate someone, he can hold one hell of a grudge. In combat, Sano is unnervingly relaxed and cunning. Sano has the trademark Nara intelligence and is known to be able to plan far ahead in a battle. He's very analytical and tends to take things slow to find any potential weaknesses in his opponent. The Nara tends to stay back in combat too, he could easily fit a support role but has a good amount of versatility. Sano's main weakness in combat would be getting too fired up and becoming rash and bull-headed. Outside of combat, with friends and family, Sano is a really fun guy to hang out with. He's usually full of energy and loves the world. He's always up to try new things loves to be with the people he cares about. To friends, he's loyal and gentle. His trademark charm and wit are always active, to the dismay of some. To be honest, some people just can't handle him. He can be extreme and figuratively too bright which granted him the nickname, Kahona's Brightest. [b]History:[/b] Jin and Suzi Nara were delighted to be blessed with a boy after trying unsuccessfully for many years to birth a child. Sano was raised in a loving household with two parents who always encouraged him to do his absolute best. As a kid, and even now, Sano looks up to his father, who is in the ANBU black ops. He also admires his mother's strength, who is a renowned medical-nin. All in all, his parents are very successful. This is where the root of Sano's ambitious nature is derived from. As a young boy in the academy, Sano severely struggled to hone his clan’s trademark techniques. It broke his little heart to see his father be so successful using it, while young Sano couldn't manage even the simplest of the jutsu. Sano begged and begged his dad to teach him, and finally the ANBU ninja agreed. The training was intense, and his father pulled no punches. Even then, Sano couldn't keep up, and it sunk him even further into disappointment. Finally, one day his father took him on a trip. They travelled to a beautiful forest and his father brought Sano to a small stream. His father told him to pay attention and he did. His dad pointed to the stream and told him that the stream represented what he was doing in his training. Sano's chakra was just rushing with no control. His father took stones and blocked most of it until the stream was concentrated into a strong, focused blast. His father told Sano that this is what Nara needed to do with their chakra in order to do their techniques. it was more about control instead of large chakra pools for showy and flashy attacks. With this new information, Sano put all his effort into his training and finally had a breakthrough. Ever since the adventure with his father, Sano was reigned in his control of his jutsu and actually grew to be a formidable ninja. Sano wishes to become stronger, he wants to show that he has what it takes and that he could be just as, if not more, successful than his parents.

These clones will attempt to grasp the enemy. If or when a clone grabs the opponent, they will meld into their shadow and connect with Sano’s Shadow Paralysis Technique. This can enhance his Shadow Imitation Technique range greatly if done correctly. The clones don't have the ability to use jutsu and are forced to use taijutsu. They tend to disappear after a of couple hits. The clones disappear when exposed to extreme light, meaning he also can't use his flash bombs in conjunction with this technique. [b]Name:[/b] Shadow Paralysis Blade [b]Type:[/b] Supplementary [b]Rank:[/b] C [b]Range:[/b] N/A [b]Hand Signs:[/b] N/A [b]Description:[/b] Sano is able to channel his unique chakra into any of his weapons by touch. Once the weapons (kunai, shuriken, his tanto, etc.) are "charged" up, he will attempt to either embed it in their skin or slice them with it. Upon contact, his chakra will induce the traditional Paralysis effect. Unlike Shadow Imitation Technique, it freezes the target in place, instead of making them copy Sano's movements. The longer he keeps the target stationary, the more chakra taxing the jutsu becomes. It's noted that it is impossible for Sano to use his Shadow Imitation Technique while his Shadow Paralysis Blade Technique is in effect. [hr] [/hider][/hider][/hider] [/center]
