Character Template Guide
[. the_\\ Shinobi]
Name: Your character's name will go here. Use the Japanese format when posting your character's name. (Example: Uzumaki Naruto). Be original with the names. Don't just go stealing someone else's name from another series or another site. Make your own name and be proud of it. You cannot change your character's name after you have finished creating them, so you will have to stick with the name you pick
Alias: This is completely optional. An alias is not required. But for people who don't know what it is, it's a nickname (Example: Konoha's Yellow Flash). If you do make an alias, it can be in English or Japanese.
Gender: Hopefully none of you need explanation on this, but it's whatever gender your character is. Male and female are your only choices here.
Age: Again, common sense. How old is your character?
Date of Birth: What was the date of the day your character was born (does not require a year)?
Clan: What clan/family is your character from? Usually this is your character's surname. If it is a custom character and you do not want to create a custom clan or join someone else's clan (with the creator's permission, of course), just put N/A or none. If, however, your character does belong to an approved custom clan, you must get it approved as well.
Country: Put the country that your character was born in. If your character is a Missing Nin or has moved to another country for any reason, put a slash through the original one and put the new one (if they do stay in a new one now) next to it. Note that these have to be the Japanese names. If you do not know them, you can find them on the site's main page.
Village: Put the village that your character was born in. If your character is a Missing Nin or has moved to another village for any reason, put a slash through the original one and put the new one (if they do stay in a new one now) next to it. Note that these have to be the Japanese names. If you do not know them, you can find them as sub-boards of the different countries on the site's main page.
Rank: What rank is your character? Academy Student is the lowest and Kage or S-ranked Missing Nin is the highest. If your character is something special, like a Medic Nin, Hunter Nin, or ANBU something, then name it here. However, if your character is a Missing or Hunter Nin, just put "Missing Nin" or "Hunter Nin" and then in parentheses next to it, put the rank (A, B, etc.). If the staff member that approves your application deems your character worthy for that rank, he will post that. If they do not deem your character worthy, you may ask why and change your application up a bit, but please do not argue with them. If you are 100% sure they are wrong, PM an Admin.
Elemental Control: These are all of the elements that your character can control. The maximum is 1 for Genin, 2 for Chuunin and B-rank Jounin, 3 (1 must be a combination element) for A-rank Jounin, and 4 (1 must be a combination element) for a Kage, S-rank Missing Nin, or higher. The only exceptions to this rule are for Uchihas that have activated their Sharingan. Also, generally, Genin or lower do not know about their elemental natures, so you may enter in one element, but you will have to learn about it IC (unless you explain how you learned about it in your history).
[. the_\\ Person]
Appearance: The minimum word requirements for your rank are listed above. Basically, this is just how your character looks. If I was standing in front of or behind him, what would I see? This includes hair, eyes, face, muscle, fat, build, height, weight, upper body, lower body, pouches, and all clothing or accessories.
Picture: This is optional. If you wish to, you may put a picture to give us a better view at what your character looks like. This does not mean that you have any less of a word requirement for the Appearance section. And please just put a link to the picture if it is going to stretch the page.
Personality: The minimum word requirements for your rank are listed above. This section is comprised of anything about your character's mental or emotional being. What are his dreams, hopes, and aspirations? Does he have any goals? If so, what are they? How does he behave around people? Is he extremely smart, a little above average, average, or dumb? Does he get overexcited easily or is he very calm? What is most important to him? What would he die for? What types of interactions does he have with other creatures, including people? What are his feelings about the state of the world or nature? Is he completely 100% loyal to his village and his village's leader? The list of questions goes on and on. You may answer these or any others you can think of or whatever you want.
[. the_\\ Skillz]
Weapon(s)/Item(s): List all of the weapons and items that your character carries. Include quantities and custom weapons/items that have been approved. Link to any custom weapons/items.
Battle Style/Special Abilities: The minimum word requirements for your rank are listed above. This is basically what your character does in battle and what they can do. How does your character fight? Do they prefer close, mid, or long range? Are they best in ninjutsu, genjutsu, or taijutsu? Do they like to think and plan many moves ahead or just rush in or do something and think of new plans on the fly? Then, what makes your character special? What can they do that most other people can't?
Bloodline: These are special abilities or traits that are passed down through the blood of a clan, such as the Sharingan or Byakugan. If your character has any, put it here. If not, put N/A or none.
Arsenal of Jutsu: List all of your character's jutsu. Any custom jutsu will be added as links after acceptance.
[. the_\\ Life]
History: The minimum word requirements for your rank are listed above. This is the history of your character from their birth until right now.
RP Example: The minimum word requirements for your rank are listed above. This is just an example of how you RP, so we can tell your skill level. In this section and ONLY IN THIS SECTION you can control more than one character's actions or speech. However, please don't overdo it. Also, this does not have to be with your character. You can bring one in from another site even, as long as it is your post.
Name: Your real first name here. If you feel just really uncomfortable about giving out your real first name, then you may just put your username.
Age: How old are you?
RP Experience: How many years have you been RPing?
Rules Password: What's the password?
