You should look at my new account, I think.

Though as a counterpoint it is the GM’s responsibility as well to keep the roster updated and accurate. Either way, it’s a shame since both Naruto applications are quite good. I look forward to writing with all of you regardless.
> Yeah you're really taking your time on that thing - what's wrong?
Not really having trouble or anything being wrong, just real life responsibilities have been coming up.
I'm sure the others will post more frequently in the OOC by tomorrow... I hope. We can discuss things back and forth until then, though I still need to finish that sample.
Yeah, we just have to see if the ol' GM is going to pop on today. Assuming the weekend gives them ample opportunity to do so, we could benefit from some communication here. I'll get the last two bits of the CS done by tonight or tomorrow, but I have things around the house to take care of.

Were we going to try to start tomorrow or Saturday after Genkai gets her template up? I don't think the odds of getting one more person are that great.
I might be able to convince a friend or two, but that's a big "maybe" at that. I'm excited for this, though.
Alright, Guild looks stable so let's see if I can work on something, yeah?
Work in progress, obviously.
General
Name – Ino Yamanaka
Age – 12
Gender – Female
Sexual Orientation – Determinant
Blood Type – B
Birthday – September 23rd
Traits – Ino is admittedly arrogant and brazen despite her relatively cheerful nature, though at times it seems she uses her playfulness to justify antagonistic behaviors to people who she feels are either rivals or enemies. Ino favors herself in an outspoken leadership role despite being easily compromised by her emotions which makes her an impractical shinobi for a team leader. Ino is also rather obsessed with her appearance which lends to a good diet though adds on to an anxiety-driven psychosis.
Hobbies – Herbalism, Studies, etc.
Personal Quote – “There's no meaning to a flower unless it blooms.”
History – As with her clan, her birth was associated with a flower and in Ino's case it was the bush clover—something that her father, Inoichi Yamanaka, intended for her to symbolize as she was raised to treasure the bonds that she has with her friends. As was the expectations of a Yamanaka she was taught very early the values of herbalism and what it was worth to Konohagakure, which instilled at first a cautious responsibility but eventually a hobby that took her mind off her days at the academy when things seemed to get particularly rough for her; though she never showed such distress. As she studied more fervently through this period she found knowledge coming to her easily and sticking with her, though she did have distractions through the social aspects of the academy which did affect her studies plenty; but given her father’s oddly carefree parentage there was never an instance where this became a problem.
Clan Info
Clan Name – Yamanaka
Symbol –
History – The Yamanaka Clan is as old as any when it comes to the history of Konohagakure with a long account of members skilled in herbalism, espionage, and interrogation. Ranging from sensory types to medical-nin, the Yamanaka Clan are not simply a clan that relies on one skillset entirely and their spies and interrogation experts tend to become great assets to the village’s ANBU division. The clan’s secret techniques are ones of great pride as they allow for several mind-centred techniques that include transferring consciousness, reading minds, and communicating telepathically. Several herbalists owing their lineage to the clan are spread throughout the Land of Fire, which in times of war secretly become spy networks for Konoha itself through the Yamanaka’s ability for telepathic communication.

CHARACTER DIRECTION (3-5 Paragraphs)
Ino in the early chapters of the series had a lot of dynamics that were particularly well-done and to this day I’m not quite sure why the author decided to relegate her to a third-rate character whose only real purpose later on in the series was to be a lovesick fool who by the epilogue was demoted to being “oh hey she had a use after all, she had a kid!” which was definitely not kosher for me personally. So the idea is much like others in this regard to make characters more than “cardboard cutrouts”, “third-rate supporting cast”, and “breeding devices”. What I really appreciated about Ino early on was her high level of dedication (or natural aptitude for things) and simply personality traits when she stood against some of the one-note bullies of the genin graduating class.
I suppose the best way to explain the direction is that we’re going with her canon traits and letting it run. As would be obvious with a different author picking up another’s work there will be direction differences and characterization shifts and my idea whilst keeping the fact she’s twelve, there is the fact that this is an anime world and there is a lot of wiggle room for what we call suspension of belief as well as creative liberties especially considering Konoha is more “militarized” hence kids would be growing up faster and more rigid so they can support their clan and their village through the responsibilities placed upon their shoulders.
Ino is going to keep on her dedication to the ninja way, use her wits when her emotions put her in bad situations, learn from her mistakes, and see where her path goes from there.

The preconceived notions about Iwaku from my experience with the site are wrong, by the way. Out of the larger sites, it has most of the guild refugees and a healthy population as well as consistent and cohesive moderation staff. But majority rules to stay here I guess, until whenever. That said, brainstorming a post.
It'd at least be online.
Will work on post, but guilds been down 8 times out of 10 so that impaired me before.
