Far from closet perv. He's overt BC about it

[Kimono]

@FallenTrinity Not sure Yuna would appreciate that kind of behavior. lolol

@Partisan@Masaki Haruna@Savato Made a few edits to her personality. Just realized there were other GMs too, so I'd like to show it to you guys as well. Feedback is much appreciated.

Yuna Hōjō

Yuna Hōjō

“Please be sincere about how you feel. I don't like being fooled.”

Yuna is generally considered pretty by others, not that she would really acknowledge it though. She doesn't base her essence on her outward appearance. She finds that kind of visual outlook of a person to be shallow. But nonetheless, she is comely, with soft fair skin, a cute button nose, watery blue eyes, and thick eyelashes. She has thin eyebrows and long brown hair that's usually laid out or tied up into a high ponytail. Her body is thin and lithe, and she doesn't have much of a chest either. But to be honest, nothing about her look really stands out. Her appearance is rather simplistic.

Put it simply, she wears what she wants, as she pleases. If she wants to wear sweats and a jumpsuit one day, she will. If she wants to wear a sundress another day, she will. If she wants to look like a skank, she will. She has no quelms about what she wears or how people perceive her based off what she wears. She has no general style, as she switches up what she wears on a day to day basis based off how she is feeling in the moment. Yuna doesn't care much about price tags and material items. The newest, finest clothing goods don't usually make it to her closet. Since she is a shrine maiden on the weekends, she can occasionally be seen in her shinto uniform.

Psych. report.
Medical secrecy applies.

【Personality】
Yuna is probably best defined as a visionary, a feminist, a romanticist, and an activist. She is a romantic and a dreamer with a rich, creative, and poetic imagination. She is incredibly inquisitive and has an insatiable curiosity about everything around her, so the world is her escape from normality and the mundane. She has no fear of anyone or anything. She'll try anything once, twice if she had a good time. And she trusts herself -- always has, always will. She has a soothing vitality and her intuition is remarkable, radiant and alive. She doesn't like having to conform to gender norms or expectations of being a female. In her eyes, women can be just as capable as their male counterparts. Yuna doesn't appreciate gender inequalities and has a distinct dislike for misogynistic behavior or people who underestimate her for being a woman. She doesn't like objectifying ideologies. She's the type to partake in a pacifistic protest, camp out in a tree to keep it from being cut down , or raise money to "save" an endangered species of dolphins.

She loves exploring the world around her and communing with animals, as she has several pets herself. The fact that she is incredibly patient and emotionally aware of those around her makes her really good at giving advice. She has a mature and motherly air about her that makes her seem comforting and draws others to her. A warming embrace or a kiss goodnight fits her bill. She is a hopeless romantic and loves anything that's passionate and sincere and romanticized. She takes a non-judgmental and sympathetic approach to things, and prefers not to kill unless she has to. Because she is very passionate, she is very outspoken about her feelings and doesn't like to lie unless she feels its for a good cause. But she absolutely hates when people lie to her, which can seem a little hypocritical.

Down to earth, compassionate, and empathetic, she is the type who marvels at fireflies, rainbows, and scenic views. Her belief is that "Women are just as capable as Men". Although sensitive, she is still a very independent and capable young lady. While she won't initially turn away the assistance of others, she has this prideful sense of self-sustaining herself and "get hands on and do it yourself". Yuna doesn't like to have to rely on others, but she will cast aside her pride in order to find success in her task at hand. However, her biggest flaw is that she can be incredibly unforgiving. She can be a bit idealistic and optimistic, and generally gives people the benefit of the doubt. She puts her trust in everyone at the start and once that trust is lost, she holds a grudge like no tomorrow. In these instances where someone ends up black-listed or has crossed her, they are treated as though they don't even exist.

【History】
Yuna's family and the Hojo Clan originate from Sunagakure, though as of late have settled in at Konohagakure for business reasons. For several generations, her family has owned a chain of quaint bathhouses that also multi-purpose as Inns. "The Hōjō Bathhouse and Inns" have been the main bread and butter of the family since its inception and since she was a little girl, she has helped in taking care of one of them that resides in Konohagakure, though now that she is older, her duties are more managerial. There are also Hojo B&I primarily in Sunagakure, Iwagakure, and Takigakure. Though she continues to help out because she is trying to be helpful, she longs for an escape from the mundane duties that it requires. Not to mention she is a shrine maiden on the weekends, a "job" she dislikes as she finds it stereotypically feminine. Shrine maidens can be men too, in her eyes.

She found relief when her parents finally let her become a ninja. This was the perfect avenue to escape her boring life and to see the world for what it has to offer. Meet new people, see new places, make new experiences and memories. She is a dreamer at heart, so her imagination of what lies beyond is unending. Yuna believes that by leaving the nest, she will grow to become stronger, smarter, and wiser. There is a sudden maturity that comes to with leaving your comfort zone and exploring outside the norm.

Her younger brothers admire her tenacity and courageousness, though have not yet been allowed to follow in her footsteps. There is a sense of pride that comes with being a girl and the oldest of four younger brothers. It breaks the gender norms and shows that an older female role model can be just as good for young boys as an older brother. They originally had their father and grandfather as older male figures, but after their untimely deaths(complications of a kidney transplant), the weight fell on her, as her mother was too busy running the family business. She is currently a sensor-nin in training.

【Fighting style】
Known as the Butterfly for its symbolic meaning of transformation, Yuna does just that within the lines of battle. Though a relatively adequate sensor-nin, she is primarily an elusive and evasive close combat fighter, utilizing her metamorphosis jutsus to shape-shift into animals and people. Each form provides her with a unique asset and skill-set for making the best of tough situations. While she isn't the strongest fighter, she is definitely a capable one, and her many forms make her a versatile one as well. However, because of the nature of her jutsus, she lacks any form of long-range capabilities. She cannot quickly shapeshift from one form to another either.

【Ninja techniques】

D-E rank techniques:
* The basic jutsu

【Custom made techniques】

Jutsu name: Metamorphosis
Rank: A
Range: Self
Description: This incredibly versatile ninjutsu allows Yuna to shape shift into different people and animals. The time she can stay transformed into something is limited and depends on how much the form looks like her original human form. The less it looks like her, the less time she can spend as it. Yuna is currently able to maintain another human form for 30 minutes(only their physical appearance), with animals forms are differentiating in lengths of time(She can maintain a gorilla form for maybe 25 minutes, while only being able to maintain a fish form for 5 minutes and an ant form for 5 seconds). Furthermore, the jutsu requires a cooling down time. She cannot first transform into a bird, and then the second after that transform into a horse. The cooling down time between consecutive forms is always the same and equal to about a minimum of 20 seconds(at least for her skill level).

The cooling down time per form depends on two things: It again depends on how much the form looks like her original human form. The less it looks like her, the more cooling down time it requires. It also depends on how much time she has spent in that form the last time(For example, if she remained in the form of another human for 30 minutes, you can't expect her to be able to shapeshift back into it within 1 minute even though the forms are alike). Generally, the longer she remains in a form, the longer the cooling down time is before she can shapeshift back into it.

A prerequisite seems to be that this jutsu requires her to have actually observed the subject in real life, rather than seeing it on a picture or reading about it. But she has other limitations as well, as she cannot shapeshift into summons, tailed beasts, imaginary creatures, or animals that have already gone extinct. How well she manages to shift into another form depends on how well she knows the subject or how many times she has observed it. For example, she is perfectly fine at shifting into small birds and house pets, okay at shifting into a bear or deer, but sucks at shifting into rare animals such as a crane or wolf. When she tries to shift into something she has observed only once or twice it will be a very imperfect copy of the animal.

Jutsu name: Partial Metamorphosis
Rank: B
Range: Self
Description: Now if she chooses, she can use this jutsu to only partially shapeshift into another human or animal. A prime example of this, is being able to transform her arms into a pair of wings or grow deer antlers on her head--maybe tiger claws, scorpion pincers, a monkey tail, or even gills on her neck. She can even shapeshift her hair like someone elses or her eyes to mimic the sharingan of an Uchiha or the byakugan of a Hyuuga(though of course without the actual jutsus or effects). It is strictly a physical imitation. Because these partial shifts require less chakra, she can maintain them for a longer period of time than a complete metamorphosis.

Jutsu name: Shared Metamorphosis
Rank: B
Range: Short
Description: With this jutsu, she can share and transfer her metamorphosis onto another, causing them to shapeshift into the exact form that she is currently shifted in. If she were in a dog, she could allow someone near her to transform into the exact same dog as well. Unfortunately, they suffer from the same limitations as she does and can only stay in the form for as long as she stays in her form, so when she shits back to human, so do they. She can only use this jutsu on 3 people at max, with each additional person costing her more chakra. They only stay metamorphed through the duration of the transformation as long as they remain near her.

@Kimono

Okay so just how 'weak' is this weakness. I can say the weakness to this jutsu is I can only do animals I have ever seen. Pretty harmless right?

Okay, so when I say I've seen:

dragons
sabretooths
giant fucking lizards
200 ft tall wolfs

It kinda becomes more harmful eh? I'm not saying make a list of all animals she knows (lol) but I'm saying your weakness is actually a weakness that will probably never come into play in the IC. So make a better one.

[Kimono]

@Partisan Hmmm, that does beg the question doesn't it? lolol I guess I thought it was kind of an implied thing. Like, I'd make her transformations grounded so she isn't shapeshifting giant monstrosities just cause she has seen them. Dragon's don't exist in naruto right? :P

But I think I have an idea. Let me make some edits to her real quick.

[Partisan]

@Kimono I think we've had a few mentions of dragons.

[Kimono]

@Partisan Oh, well I'm duped. lolol But I finished with the adjustments. Added and changed some things to make her more dynamic and THREE-DEE. Ready for grading mister.

[Savato]

N.C.4 aka Junshiro

“Deleting.”

Junshiro's appearance is easily misleading as it always leaves individuals wondering if its designed to be female or male, let alone if they're even aware if its a robot or not. Its face is more or less flawless and gives off more feminine features than masculine, his is enhanced with its 'middle ground' voice, sound like a female with a low voice but a male with a not-so low voice. It keeps its hair short to maintain that illusion of sex ambiguity.

It ever shows what's behind its clothes, and often refers to tight, black clothing with a turtle neck alone with black jeans. They're said to be its' favorite type of clothing for operations as they blend well in the night with its dark black hair. It keeps it simple and doesn't have a huge thing for fashion. Behind the clothes, well, its body is not like the norm. It has two metal plating on the chest as shield to defend the most vital of organs, which its body structure resembles that of a female more than a male: Larger hips, smaller shoulder width and so on.

Measuring 5'9" and being rather thin as an individual, it doesn't have a hard time blending in as the average Joe, staying extremely inconspicuous in large populations. It does however have one fault, and its the perpetual bags under its eyes, now not a flaw, but a trait that can possibly distinguish it from the rest.

Psych. report.
Medical secrecy applies.

【Personality】
One could easily compare N.C.4 to the Terminator with its completely emotionless expression and monotone voice. Indeed, it appears to be entirely aloof to almost any situation at hand, no matter how exciting or terrifying it might be. It is devoid of emotions, or at least its been born with strong cerebral damage to the area that processes emotions, making it very difficult for it to understand them, let alone feel them. But it isn't impossible.

An example of it actually behaving like a human is its unquenchable curiosity, often pushing it to obsession when it is fixated on something. And this can go in any way possible: As far as uncovering the inner workings of an underground organization or simply want color socks its client would be wearing that day. It can also have a random burst of emotion, often when confronted to something that fascinates it. She expresses that by a random and extremely unnerving giggle before licking its lips.

However when someone is going to interact with it, chances are its going to disregard any form of social norm and expose various known and observable facts about its interlocutor and make conclusions off them, often being negative ones. It seems to have a desire to debunk the most confident of individuals with that type of react, exposing all their flaws so they would have their bubble burst. It won't hesitate to offer a demonstrative spar to expose these flaws. That said, it some how manages to get cocky itself in these scenarios, often performing unnecessary actions for reasons only known to it. This has caused it to lose fights before.

【History】
N.C.4's story begins after the end of Pain's invasion. Konoha is in ruins and its lack of military power has gotten quite obvious to multiple individuals relying on the Root organization to keep their investments safe. With the death of Danzo Shomura, renovation was needed and new plans were made to have an adequate defense against future attacks from sure intimidating foes. Plus, the dehumanizing process of Root was nearing the scandal it was inevitably heading for, prompting even more the demand for such an efficient and cost effective substitute.

The aftermath of the Pain invasion left few to analyze, but one Pain body remained that was much different from the others: The Asura Path. It has a very specific structure that allowed it to fuse machine and organs in perfect harmony via the power of the Rinnegan. Multiple theories from great minds emerged and this endeavor to reach the perfect shinobi became a possibility. However Root would quickly meet its downfall and the project would be under suspension until further notice.

Then came the 11th Squad. Various details about the project remain hidden, even to the Hokage, but what must be known is that at least 7 prototypes exist, and N.C.4 (the fourth prototype) is the only final product capable of efficient field work as of yet. It is said that its success rate is 100%, as it holds no true pride nor empathy for others and focuses entirely on the mission. Scum for nowadays shinobi, but the perfect operative for the type of work given by the very ambiguous 11th Corp. The existence of such a being raises doubts on the supposedly much enhanced ethics of the Corp compared to Root. But the political lobby behind it is currently too big to bring about a thorough investigation.

【Family ties】
Being a being like no other and having lived in the 11th Corp its entire existence, it doesn't have a true "family".

Saburo Uchiha | Colleague | 18, Irrelevant location, Ridiculous partner in the 11th Corp and a frequent sparring dummy. His Sharingan is one of the reasons why N.C.4 is so adaptable to other opponents.

【Dreams and fears】
It must first understand these two concepts for itself before developing an identity toward these.

【Fighting style】
As one would expect, N.C.4 behaves by using complete rationality and will not execute a plan without being in agreement with the probabilities it shows. It is however extremely relentless and has ever shown a hint of hesitation, exploiting any possible weakness it can find. Though in execution, it often relies on keeping almost the exact same distance between it and its foes, averaging from 20 to 30 meters.

Because of its strong ability to learn and its upbringing in the 11th corp, it seems capable of adapting to any other fighting style with ease, going as far as to copy various position to destabilize the foes. It will also often use speech to attempt and affect the psyche of its opponent, acting on what it can observe to make effective deductions on their composure and motives. To pinpoint exactly what this being will do in every fight before it happens is a maddening job, however.

【Kekkei genkai, or bloodline limit】
Bloodline limit name:
Asura Project
Description:
A project first conceived at the ends of the ROOT organization and now finished under the 11th Corp. The idea of creating the perfect shinobi by basing it off the remains of the Asura path left during Pain's invasion was finally a success. The concept of such a creation relies on fusing machine with human, however the program is far from being perfect, it ha created multiple prototypes, notably N.C.4, the only one adequate for field work.
These beings are mostly organic, however multiple organs, including the brain, have been either replaced or enhanced by a mechanical upgrade. They naturally have a large weight than the average, and it entails superior strength than the normal. They forearms and forelegs are both enhanced by metal muscles to protect these members. They have a ridiculously high tolerance to pain and know full well how to react when damaged to specific spots.
They ability to analyze is possibly the best attribute they wield, having the power to take on a large amount of information, they are greatly reliable when it comes to treating information. It doesn't mean they can analyze anything at super speeds and copy the sharingan, but they can easily assess the situation. Added to that is they ability to simulate thermal and X-ray vision, chakra vision being too complex for this version of the Project. And yes their bodies have the same weakness as humans otherwise.
Strengths:
Generally superior boost, powerful learning capabilities and extremely high endurance in battle.
Weaknesses:
Inability to learn beyond their two elements. Damage from Lightning attacks to the main body will disable them for a certain period of time depending on the damage.

【Custom made techniques】
Jutsu name:
Cleansing Protocol
Rank:
A
Range:
Varies upon usage
Description:
Akin to the Murderous Grasp, the user of Cleansing Protocol is capable of releasing metal wires from both their fingers and the tip of their feet/shoes and manipulate them into various forms. Here the chakra applied is Lightning, which functions like chakra flow on a blade, enhancing the wire's cutting ability while stiffening the construct when manipulated into a specific way. The cutting power can go up to cutting steel, though it can easily be fought back by using a blade (with enough skill, otherwise it breaks quickly) or an enhanced cutting weapons or defensive object.
Although they have a long reach, the longer the enhanced wire, the easier it is to halt the progression of the wire by just blocking a specific spot, like blocking a blade. However the smaller it is, the stronger the force applied will be. When enhanced, the wires are quite easy to see being a bright blue color and easy to predict from long range. Oppositely, the closer one is, the harder they are to predict, but in exchange the amount of moves the user can make is limited due to small manipulation space.

Jutsu name:
Trojan Horse
Rank:
A
Range:
N/A
Description:
Essentially a clone made of metal wires, knitted in blinding speeds, almost as fast as the normal formation of a shadow clone. This clone has the particularity of only being able to be formed once every 24h, but in exchange it gives a large amount of benefits. To start off, it's made of metal and is much heavier than its robotic user, making it unable to jump (it can however run in normal speeds) and its large movements are slower. However they look and have exactly the same traits as N.C.4, to the point where no dojutsu can distinguish it from the original.
It is able to use to a slower and weaker extent the Cleansing Protocol, but it remains much more predictable and easily blocked. However it has the capability of using itself or the original as a form of puppet, though it is mostly used as the puppet (it still acts like a clone but has the ability to react to things it can't see thanks to its manipulator).
It's biggest advantage is the fact that, despite it being unable to user any other type of jutsu, it doesn't dissipate from simple damage: Decapitation, strong blunt hits, dismemberment barely work and it can act without its head (though it will be slowed down). It can only be destroyed by completely destroying its structure (ie, fitting a strong bomb inside of it or a large fire attack, possibilities are endless).

Jutsu name:
Compatibility Check
Rank:
B
Range:
Personal
Description:
A strong Genjutsu countermeasure, applied when Fujitora was integrated in the Konoha's ranks. The ability is simple and doesn't make one immune to anything. However, it does work in a way that N.C.4's brain is almost divided into "two different organs". More precisely, the receptors of sound connected to the ear are not connected to the same "brain" as sight, meaning that sound based genjutsu will not affect the robot's vision, and visual based will not affect its hearing. As such, it is a lot easier for it to recognize genjutsu and pinpoint itself using this feature. It doesn't work with other senses as of now.

Jutsu name:
Reassembly
Rank:
B
Range:
Personal, contact
Description:
The best way to describe its process would be this. The process is very simple, N.C.4 focuses strongly on a wound, often a stump or a large one and manipulates its chakra to have a specific, thin stitch wire pierce the target's flesh. Then commences the magic, all muscles, nerves, and skin are reattached to nearly 100%. This healing ability is extremely impractical in the heat of battle as it requires the bot's entire focus, but it also consumes a large amount of its chakra, making it not only nearly incompatible in fights but also too taxing. The average time it takes to restore a severed limb would be about 2 minutes.

Jutsu name:
Cookies
Rank:
B
Range:
200m
Description:
N.C.4 releases from its shoulders four small drones, the size of a chick, the shape of fireflies. They scatter under the hivemind of the robot and act as trackers to the nearby area. They are capable of using thermal vision. They essentially relay information the same way the Pain bodies had shared vision. They are easily destroyed and make a strong buzzing sound. Beyond 200m they can't relay information.

Jutsu name:
Wireless Connection
Rank:
C
Range:
Close - Mid range
Description:
Another name for this ability can be "Wire bullets". Simply put, it's a wire balled up into a ball and shot through N.C.4's fingers like a bullet, going as fast as one too (ninja reflexes yo). They have no piercing power and are purely blunt, though they give nasty bruises. They quite useful when shot at the legs of people running around as the knockback is quite fierce. Three hand seals are needed for a volley of ten shots. They can easily be cut or destroyed with a counter.

Jutsu name:
Path Finding
Rank:
C
Range:
Personal
Description:
This technique can only be used two meters from the ground. It essentially uses wind chakra to create a small platform so the user can maneuver around. It is produced by small propellers at N.C.4's feet that release streams of air filled with wind chakra.

Jutsu name:
Extension Cords
Rank:
C
Range:
5m - 50m
Description:
There are two version to this ability, the first being five thick, steel cords coming out of the user's forearm to bind a victim in a strong bind. The strength is akin to a small boa constricting them. The second version is the user's hand being shot like a grapple onto something and either pulling that thing or itself.

Jutsu name:
Power Battery
Rank:
C
Range:
Contact
Description:
A wave of lighting chakra released when in contact with either the cords or N.C.4's grip. The shock is strong enough to paralyze an elephant, but it is non-lethal. It can only maintain paralyzed if contact is maintained.

I'm surprised you didn't make her KKG the metamorphosis. That would be pretty cool to be honest

[Kimono]

@FallenTrinity

Thats actually a good idea. I think I will! :)

[Kimono]

@Savato@Partisan Took Fallen's advice and made Yuna's metamorphosis her kekkei genkai. Hope that was alright.

[Masaki Haruna]

Since when mythical creatures are in Naruto? Then again dragons are a Japan thing as long as it is eastern and Naruto is eastern so.... I got no problem. Accepted.

[FallenTrinity]

Alright no more enjoying the 777 comments. Time for business

[Partisan]

@Masaki Haruna Literally nobody said she could transform into dragons..

[Masaki Haruna]

@Partisan NP on that. It's basically every Naruto RP with pet dragons and all so I guess this is a nod~
