First, there are the two scars marking his face. Second, there is the one piece tracksuit like outfit he can usually be seen wearing. And third, there are his yellow (golden in the words of his mother) eyes. He stands at roughly 4’11" tall with a fairly muscular, though lean physique as would be expected from somebody who trains as much as him. He also sports a messy head of dark brown, bordering black, hair. Additionally, one is likely to see a ninja tool pouch hung at the right side of his waist and another strapped to his leg just above his left knee. Finally, he can often be seen carrying a navy blue backpack which he uses to carry his larger tools (or simply those that wouldn't fit in his two pouches), as well as other various (not always necessary) things. [/color][/indent] [b]PERSONALITY & MOTIVATIONS[/b] [indent][color=Gray]There are a great many words that could be used to describe Seiichi. He is intelligent, hardworking, ambitious, and cautious while simultaneously emotional, reckless, and somewhat reclusive; the list could go on. He is never satisfied with his own achievements. He brushes things off believing that he can and should always strive to be better as the next head of the Sarutobi clan.This is most likely due to the high expectations of him, expressed by various members of his clan. He is strong willed, stubborn even, never willing to give up or quit, often pushing his mind and body past his limits. It is very unlike him to try and shy away from or hide his opinion on what he does and does not find acceptable which at times can get him into trouble or cause problems that would otherwise be avoided. Additionally, because he has had to deal with his fair share of bullies he tends to gravitate more towards animals than people. He also found it simpler to just keep those around his age away from him to avoid further problems. The habit seems to have stuck even after becoming a genin, given his tendency to push people away. He tends to act more on instinct and emotion than logic, a “passion” he would claim to have been inherited from his father. Some things are too important for him to simply let go. As such he can act rather recklessly where certain subjects are concerned. The young man also tends to remain cautious of most new peoples and things he encounters, which can be attributed to his experience with bullies. Still, he doesn’t necessarily see this as a problem as to him that is an important trait for a shinobi. Seiichi aspires to make a name for himself as a great shinobi. He wishes to surpass his father and even his grandfather, though he doubts he can. At times he can feel somewhat inferior in terms of raw talent, so he works harder to make up for it. When it comes to his goals, he feels the only thing that can get in his way is himself. He isn’t likely to ask for help because he feels it’ll just drag somebody else into his problem. He greatly underestimated himself and his own growth because in his eyes nothing he does is as good as it could be.[/color][/indent] [b]CLAN HISTORY[/b] [indent][color=Gray]TBA[/color][/indent] [b]PERSONAL HISTORY[/b] [indent][color=Gray]Seiichi is the son of Sarutobi Atsuo. Being as young as he is, he didn’t get to know his grandfather all that well before he passed away due to old age. However, he heard about him from his father and about his father from other members of the clan. His father was, and still isn’t, one to brag. Thus, Seiichi ended up learning more about the man he held in such high regard from the people around him whenever possible. And the more he learned, the more he felt motivated to become a great shinobi, though his goal never was and likely never would be to become Hokage. Still, as he grew it became apparent that he was not as talented or skilled as his father or grandfather. He fell behind other members of the clan and others in his age group. He deeloped feelings of inadequacy, which were only strengthened by the expectations of the elders and older members of his clan. He was supposed to be the next head of the clan. How could he properly lead them if he could not live up to the regard with which he was held. Seiichi tried harder and harder, but for a while the results just weren’t showing. His taijutsu skills were considerably weaker than those around him. He had no genjutsu to speak of and he could hardly use his chakra. While other students made headway in strides he was struggling to properly perform the most basic of techniques. Some people even suggested he give up and shift his focus elsewhere. But he simply couldn’t do it. If he wasn’t a ninja, what was he? The child only had one option in his youth. Work harder. So, he studied more. He began to learn about chakra to utilize it in the best ways possible. He tested the limits of his chakra reserves. He question other shinobi of his clan, his father included, of the best ways in which to utilize chakra. Eventually, a member of his clan name Hichibi began to help him train under orders from Atsuo. It from Hichibi that he would learn about Chakra Flow and various ways to properly manage and control his chakra. Of course, he couldn’t do this without training, learning and working on his own as Hichibi was not always around to guide him and he understood the demands his father had to meet in order to maintain his position and continue the clan’s legacy as one of the ruling clans of the village. Even so, to say life was easy for the young Sarutobi would be a slap in the face to his own circumstances. For while it is true he was in a position where he would not want for any material item he was also bullied by some of the children around him. He was seen as weaker and an easier target than many of the other well off children. He was taunted and in some cases attacked. He was called scum, a failure, beaten down because the other children wanted to prove their dominance over a member of one of the villages ruling clans. Seiichi refused to tell his father or anybody else what was going on. One day though he was attacked. The children went farther than they ever had. The ringleader of the bunch had gotten hold of a tanto. He’d been showing it off and decided the perfect person to test his sword skills on was Seiichi. Other boys held him by his arms, keeping him in place as the young man swung the blade, inching closer to Seiichi with each swipe. One of the group warned him to be careful, but he argued he wouldn’t do anything so stupid. The boy was wrong of course. Upon his final swing he hit Seiichi, who to this point had been struggling to free himself from the boys. It had felt like an eternity, though in reality the boy had only swung 3 or 4 times before his attack reached the face of the Sarutobi heir. Seiichi cried out in pain. The boys scattered. He was found and taken care of, but when asked about the mark he lied. He couldn’t involve anybody else. His parents shouldn’t have been bothered and he couldn’t show such weakness as the next clan head. The wound healed, but left a scar across his face. Over the next few weeks, Seiichi trained harder than ever before. He would need to be able to handle himself should another incident occur. And then, he received his second scar. He had been working himself to the bone, anger welling up inside him. He’d progressed considerably in his training to control his chakra and utilize chakra flow. His skills in shurikenjutsu had also increased. Perhaps he had gotten a little full of himself, but during practice he messed up and cut himself on a bad throw while attempting to manipulate the shuriken’s trajectory with wire. Regardless, the boy moved on. And sure enough he was confronted once more. This time, however, he fought back. He played the long game. He stayed far from them, used the skills he’d been working on. Apart from a few scratches the boys weren’t harmed. However, he was reprimanded when they collectively lied. He knew a bunch of people who knew the truth, but he didn’t fight it. He had technically won after all. Even up to graduation, there were times when he was faced with bullying. Snide comments, little quarrels. He’d gotten much better at fighting back. He stuck to his plan of not involving others, leaving him without many friends if any at all. But that didn’t matter as long as he became a Shinobi of the village he loved and could make his father proud.

He has a tendency to find himself wondering where things will go for him and his teammates under her tutelage. His expectations of her as a Jonin are incredibly high, though he has heard from members of his clan in passing that when it comes to the Jonin of the leaf one should typically expect some level of eccentricity.

While he does not have the wealth of chakra many around him have been blessed with, he is more than capable of making good use of the moderately sized pool he [i]does[/i] have. Such levels of control can even be compared to that of the Hyuga, though not quite there. [url=http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Chakra_Flow]Chakra Flow[/url]: With access to some of the best ninja trainers of the village, even before entering the Ninja Academy, Seiichi questioned various sources for some of the better uses of his chakra. Utilizing this skill he increase the potency of a weapon, or even his own body, by flowing chakra through it. Although he has a ways to go before he could be considered a master of this technique, it is something he has been working on for a while, as sort of shock and awe technique, considering most genin wouldn't be capable of utilizing this skill.[/color][/indent] [b]FOCUS & SKILLS[/b] [indent][color=Gray]Seiichi uses his superior chakra control and management to strengthen his weapons and also imbue them with his chakra nature. Additionally, as he is quite meticulous with the use of his weaponry and chakra while in battle he can also employ various ninjutsu in succession. However, though he has trained hard to get his chakra control to such a high level, with his focus on ninjutsu and chakra manipulation, his taijutsu skills simply do not measure up. Furthermore, his genjutsu skills are practically nonexistent. Given that information it is understandable that Seiichi is prone to relying on weaponry and ninjutsu to lessen the gap between him and stronger opponents as he would be at a disadvantage if forced into close quarters combat. He knows that in a contest of brawn or simple close range combat skill he has less of a chance to win. Thus, while he most certainly is not a genius, he chooses to fight in the smartest way available to him. Because of this Seiichi avoids close combat, opting to use hit and run or diversionary tactics to slow and disorient opponents, whittling them down slowly. Seiichi tries to drag out a battle, while also combining the aforementioned skills with mid to long range ninjutsu and other attacks to take them down, attempting to keep himself as safe as possible (though this doesn't always workout).[/color][/indent] [b]EQUIPMENT & INVENTORY[/b] [indent][color=Gray]Seiichi typically equips himself with standard ninja tools including, but not limited to, the following: [hider=Click Here]**The following increments of tools is subject to change on occasion** [list][*]20x Shuriken [*]15x Kunai [*]2x Smoke Bombs [*]3x Flash Boms [*]6x Explosive Tags [*]2x Foldable Fūma Shuriken [*]Several Feet of Wire[/list] [/hider][/color][/indent] [b]JUTSU[/b] [indent][color=Gray]About time I throw in this thing here!

Still need to do Ren and Ten. July 26, 2017 – Decided to revamp Kenjiro. He’ll have a new name, new personality, new background. He will now be Sarutobi Atsuo’s son. I only really changed his name to Seiichi and edited the personality. July 27, 2017 (Just past midnight) – With some help I gave Seiichi a new look (FC). I also looked back and edited the personality again. I asked Grey to look it over for any inconsistencies or contradictions. Removed any mention of Kenjiro or having a brother.All that is left is the History. July 27, 2017 (Evening) - Finished hashing out Seiichi’s history since just about everything else was done. Other minor edits can come later.
