This looks like some thought and care was put into the lore, and I do quite like the aesthetic and mood of the little bits of Naruto I've seen (plus, ninjas are cool!), but I have basically no clue what happened within Naruto after the Gaara vs. Lee fight, which I think is quite early in the lore? Is there a lot I HAVE to catch up on to write up to par?

No, I have a timeline for canon + our universe in handy image format. I don't really want to ruin the thread, but you can basically find it if you look at my threads/posts so I'll just post it here;

0 M.E. is the year Konohagakure was founded, anything before that was Sengoku Jidai/Mythical era of Kaguya Otsutsuki, and the Sage of the Six Paths/Indra & Asura. If you really want to read more about this universe we have here, and get started on thinking of a character, [url=https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/172190-hmm/ooc#post-4673768]read here.[/url] Otherwise I expect the thread to be up in like, 3 days?
