Naruto: Birth of a Better Generation

I just proof read your current history. You jump from three villages, you claimed to have been trained by the Amekage at a time that an Amekage couldn't even chronologically be alive. There were no Kage in existence at the specific time your character was said to be training with one; that would have been during the Reign of Sai. I seriously feel like you have taken no time to consider this setting.

I'm going to afford you one opportunity to revamp your entire CS before I simply ask you to leave.

You can't have Wind Cutter, either. You don't have the weapon requirements to use it and it doesn't even exist in this continuum. I feel like I'm being a dick, but it seems as if you put no forethought into this.

LillyDove said Her history can be confusing, to sum it all up: She was born in Amegakure, moved to Konoha then moved back to Amegakure, her oldest brother was the Ame-kage, they moved back to Konoha after Hidden Rain fell.

No one is going to be directly related to people of the past like the Amekage. You may want to revamp that history to make it just a wee bit more plausible.

Yes. We're still accepting.

LillyDove, I'm going to have to review your entire History later. No, she is not presently approved. I've had a long day at college, and your CS jumps around so randomly in places that I literally cannot comprehend it.

Secondly, I'm not letting you have the Blade of Winds justu as well as Air Cutter. That's OP as Hell to give a genjutsu specialist close-range combat abilities of such magnitude, and one of them was literally designed for canon swords.

LillyDove, make some links for those canon jutsu. I legit do not want to have to look them up every time I want to make a reference.

To anyone else, I'm not terribly concerned about the time you take inc reating a CS; quality is fantastic. But to those with approved characters, this RP is greelit. Get at it!

Excessively strong Chuunin are called Special Jounin. lol

Naruto: Birth of a Better Generation

The present teams are Jounin - Genin - Genin - Genin
Chuunin - Chuunin - Genin

So, even if you make characters, you have to collaborate with each other to make teams. If two of you make a Jounin, one of you most likely will not roleplay the other Jounin for a while.

@Sean: I have no clue what you meant to communicate.

@Everyone else: You may continue to make characters to your hearts' content at the moment.

Naruto: Birth of a Better Generation

You may post with the given prompt; there is no present posting order. I also highly encourage the use of collaborative writing through titanpad.com once full teams are made. You may also make your own posting order amongst yourselves. I like you guys to have your Independence.

History. Utaka is the second son of the youngest brother in the Tsukino Trade Coalition. His family gained prosperity during the Reign of Sai and made their fortune off of the opened trade routes that were available due to the lack of borders at the time. With the fall of the Sai Regime, the Tsukino Trade Coalition lost a large portion of its power, but also gained animosity in most local areas as their business once had monopolized some places. Born to the youngest brother, Utaka had nowhere near the fortune or prestige of his cousins as his father received the lighter end of the business due to his age, as was custom. It was well known that his branch of the coalition was essentially 'dead weight' to the rest of it.

Even though his portion of the trade coalition was weaker and smaller, it still impacted local businesses. Disgruntled competitors ultimately ambushed Utaka and his family, threatening to kill them if they did not cease their trade. His father, knowing that it would be poor for the image of the coalition if he allowed himself to be bullied, refused any cessation, resulting in the small mob beginning to beat him and his family. His father and mother were killed and as he saw his older brother being beaten, Utaka went into a fit of rage and used a technique that is still an enigma to this day. The technique was activated by a fit of rage and closely mirrored the Antlion Ninja Art: Ephemeral. Utaka lost his parents that day and his brother was paralyzed from the waist down, but change did not end there.

The technique imbued Utaka with an immense amount of chakra - enough for a lifetime of jutsu in just a few minutes - and almost killed him killed him because of it. After quickly burning through those of immediate threat, Utaka passed out and the crowd that had formed actually sought out help as the only two alive were children. Utaka lived, but he was changed. He could absorb chakra and more over his chakra network had been altered. The exact alterations to his chakra network were seemingly trivial, as inspected by a Hyuuga using the Byakugan that stated the changes to his body are only in position; he has the same number of chakra points, merely in different places. Even still, Utaka was considered a medical anomaly.

Taking on the new name Kino as it was a term of endearment from his brother, he lived with his aunt and uncle for the remaining duration of the Sai Regime. Once the regime fell, his uncle attempted to force him into the Shinobi Academy to get him out of the house, to which Kino initially refused. His refusal resulted in he and his brother being kicked out of the household, and forced them to live on the streets. Kino spent months begging for food, holding up signs, doing any work he could, and doing twice as much to feed him and his disabled brother. Ultimately, Kino knew he could not do it alone and returned to his uncle, asking him to take his brother back if he went to the Shinobi Academy. Agreeing was reluctant, as his uncle truly just wanted rid of them, but empathy towards his youngest brother and his disabled nephew was strong enough to persuade him.

This led to Kino being put in the first classes of the new Shinobi Academy, and doing impressively well in them. Kino caught onto jutsu quick and was easily able-bodied enough to keep up with taijutsu and Shinobi weaponry. It was learned here that his altered chakra network gave him an advantage in chakra control; where it took some students weeks to climb trees, it only took Kino minutes to walk on water. Kino was not the strongest of his age, but his agility was able to match even the Uchiha in his class, and he excelled with a weapon few shinobi use: the bow. Kino was not only a very skilled archer, he could use chakra flow to guide arrows, and had the ability to shoot down kunai mid-air, all before graduating.

His success in class actually brought pride to his uncle, whom went out of his way to then provide him with adequate gear. A new suit in his size, meant to make the most out of his agility. A bracer with a seal inscription that can summon a bow as if it were a scroll. All the arrows and kunai he could need for practice, and of course hidden quivers. His uncle would never admit it, but he was proud of Kino and wished one of his children could have been a shinobi. Despite that, Kino still has a great resentment towards the man, and believes he is only trying to make Kino into an icon for his business. Kino ultimately graduated near the top of his class with most of his peers knowing his name, and most knowing he had no history with the shinobi world.

Personality. Kino is cynical and generally quite self-centered. Losing his parents and providing for his brother showed him at an early age that the world is evil, and people don't help. His brother is the only person he generally cares for, and he rarely sees him now. Kino is not necessarily proud of his accomplishments as he never truly wanted to be a Shinobi. Kino is artistic, and can paint and draw quite well. He was forced out of a life of art for the life of a shinobi, and still hates the fact. Kino is often brooding and quiet, but is not outwardly aggressive.

Nature Release: Unknown element, shape transformation
Traits. Abnormal chakra network, Can absorb chakra, Resistance to Genjutsu (via abnormal chakra network)
Combat Style: Although Tsukino is not weak at close range, he by far excels using his bow and weaponry. He is relatively fast and agile as well as adequately skilled with the ninjutsu he has learned. Tsukino is also capable of absorbing chakra and at this point can through weapons and clothing, meaning what he lacks in strength can be made up for. Lastly, his altered chakra network makes him resistant to certain jutsu, such as targeted jutsu and genjutsu.

Jutsu List: All academy jutsu.

Body Flicker Technique
Shadow Clone

Jutsu Name: Guided Arrow
Jutsu Type: Offensive
Effective Range: Mid, Long
Nature Type: Chakra Control
Descriptions: Kino launches an arrow imbued with his chakra, allowing it to waver mid air to better hone in on a target. The added chakra also gives it slightly superior penetration power.
Drawbacks: Repeated use can be taxing and the honing ability is only applicable to a few centimeters.

Jutsu Name: Ten-no-Ya
Jutsu Type: Offensive
Effective Range: Mid
Nature Type: Shape transformation
Descriptions: Kino pours his chakra into his bow, then creates a single arrow made of chakra to fire. With no weight, this arrow is fired at incredibly fast speeds, but is only viable for roughly twenty meters. The arrow has great penetrating power, and after its initial penetration into flesh, it hits a chakra network to shut down nearby chakra points.
Drawbacks: This jutsu is significantly draining if used repeatedly and is only effective at a mid-range distance, in comparison to even regular arrows.

Weaponry: A bow that is sealed inside his protective gauntlet. If broken, he can reseal it and summon a new one from the same stash. He has three quivers on his body with different arrows, ranging from smokescreens to poisons. He also has a utility belt with several items, such as nets, wires and smokescreens with two pouches containing kunai. Lastly, he carries one sword on his back beside his largest quiver and a small tanto on his hip beside his second quiver. The third quiver is located on the opposite side of his body as the one on his hip and is angled forward.
