<center>Team #7 Konoha Village Nin</center>


Please check out the application page if you're interested in this RP, and refrain from posting here if you are not on the team!


Roleplaying Area
A nice area on the banks of a lake, a 20-minute walk from the center of Konoha. It has a large grassy field in a clearing of trees, which is good for sparring or practicing Taijutsu. There are some stumps and cut down trees at the edge of the clearing for practicing Jutsus aswell. There is also a small island in the middle of the lake, which is covered in bushes and has one tree on it. The island is about 7 squared feet.

A minute's walk through the trees comes to a small area where the trees have low brances good for sitting and socializing or discussing missions, or just relaxing after a good hour of training. It's well shaded and has a slight breeze around the place, which is nice on a hot summer's day. Due to the lack of strenuous training material (cliffsides etc), the team may make small field trips to more dangerous areas to train more.

Summon Description: A giant fox, about the size of a riding horse. After the kyuubi incident, she refrained from using this jutsu as much as possible. It can't speak, but Kimiko seems to understand it. This summon doesn't have any jutsu, but it's very fast and can be used for transportation. It can also fight quite well, but is resorted to very rarely for battle. For some strange reason, foxes tend to act friendly around Kimiko, perhaps because of this summon. The fox, called "Tsune", is passed down through the family via scroll contract.
Description: Waist-length blond hair tied in either loose (like Tsunade)or high (like Naruko) pig-tails, it depends on how long she had to get ready in the morning. Bright green eyes, and she usually has a mischevious grin on her face. When she's just messing about with her team, she wears a green top (like Yuffie's from KH), a blue pleated skirt, knee-socks (that are baggy around the ankles like Japanese schoolgirls) and a pair of sneakers. When on missions that involve other people, she wears the normal jounin outfit.
Kimiko is a bit of a flirt, but is also hypocritcal in that sense. She'll beat people up for being a pervert, or if they see her undies (which happens often, since the Taijutsu she uses is close to a roundhouse and she wears a skirt). She's very happy-go-lucky, and still acts a bit immature, as if she was still a sixteen-year-old genin. But she can be mature when it's needed, so people assume she's just so cheerful to get along with her students.
Bio: Kimiko is basically an average Jounin. She's very bright, and she paid attention in class, and that's probably why she graduated quite soon. It was after she turned Chuuin that she let herself relax a bit and now she enjoys life with a smile always on her face. Her parents were very kind and were always looking out for her, and encouraged her to grow up to become a strong ninja. Her dad passed away a year after she became Chuuin, but she managed to keep a smile on her face and somehow graduate to Jounin a few years later. Her personal goal now is to finally make it to an ANBU team that's assigned to protecting Konoha, so she can protect the people and places she's grown up loving for so many years. And a side mission to that is getting a boyfriend!

As for lower body clothing, she wears a black skin tight caprices. All other basic ninja accessories are equipped.
Bio: A cheerful young girl coming from the Inzuka Clan. She was born in Konoha, same as her parents. She’s been training hard to become a skilled ninja and learn the ways of her clan. Her dog companion, Kei, has been with her ever since she was little. Literally, they grew up together.

Bio: Akira was born into a family of medical doctors. Both his mother and father were doctors for Konoha Village. This has made his parents enforce medical studies to an extreme. However, Akira hates to study medicine. He's always trying to pick a fight with someone his same size or sometimes even bigger than him. Deep inside, he has a pure heart, but is just goofy sometimes. Akira can be best described as a rebel towards his parents.

Team: #7
Sensei: Kimiko-sensei
Primary Jutsu Type: Taijutsu
Jutsus Learned:
*Tenrei no mai (graceful dance)
This Jutsu blurs the user's movements - sort of leave an aftertrail. When used appropriately, this make it quite hard for opposing ninja to focus on the user, since it's hard to tell precisely where they are and at what speed they are moving. When used masterfully, however, tenrei no mai can completely drawn in the opponent, hypnotizing them with the utterly graceful movement and leaving them frozen in awe. However, most higher-level ninja would not be affected in the least by the mesmerizing effects by this Jutsu, at least not considering the level at which Ryuuki can perform it.
*Transformation Skill
*Summoning Technique:
A giant black tiger, with sharp violet stripes and infernally glowing orange eyes. The tiger is called Koriki - the name of which has no meaning, really, but that's what the tiger says his name is. The tiger is very aloof, and none too kind to anyone - most especially Ryuuki, who isn't powerful enough to actually control whether Koriki comes or goes.
The tiger has no abilities at the moment; he claims that his power is tied to Ryuuki's, and until she starts trying to tap into her power, he has only his teeth and claws. Not as if that isn't sufficent; Koriki is a fierce fighter, and more then a little terrifying to the standard opponent. However, he isn't particularly... motivated. Ryuuki can't control him, and he knows it; and he thinks it far more amusing to watch *her* try to handle her own problems.
Description: Ryuuki doesn't really look like a ninja. She seems too unfocused, too playful, and too uncertain. Her eyes, a soft violet in color, are friendly and cheerful; her hair is cropped very short and (god forbid) cotton candy pink, usually either let loose to fall about her face. Her skin is nicely tanned, healthy-looking; her body shape is slender and lithe, agile but lacking a certain strength. She has a very tomboyish look about her, though, and often does play the part of a male. '-'; In fact, so far as anyone knows, she *is*....
Ryuuki has a rather day-to-day style- loose, silky top with longer sleeves then really needed, loose trousers, a pair of geta (sometimes - she likes going barefoot just as well), and a plain leather belt about her waist (which, of course, hides many pouches in it's lining. Numbering upon the junk she keeps in there are her caltraps, a lockpick (she's horrible with it), her single kunai, some string, some sweets, any money she has with her, and some ink balls (small little globes that burst open on contact and splash ink everywhere)). She wears her hitai-ate properly, for the moment.
Bio: Ryuuki didn't start out as a ninja. Startling, I know, but she actually had a different career in mind- one that she's still a thousand times better at then ninja-ing. She wanted... to be the best damn con artist there ever was.
It's true. Her friendly, cheerful, trustworthy attitude is mostly an act to snag other people's money. And, since she's so young, everyone trusts her so much... it's one of her favorite things to do. I mean, sure, she didn't have parents around, which is why she justified getting into the thieving career in the first place; but, really, even if someone were to come up to her and adopt her this second, she wouldn't stop her career. She loves it too much.
Ryuuki was sort of lonely, of course - who wouldn't be...? She had a few friends, but they weren't of the sort that you could count on to stick up for you- and, of course, they all thought she was a boy, because of her clothing and her mannerisms. They were all the kind of pickpocketing thieves, around her age, for the most part; very rough guys, no real loyalty to be found anywhere.
So, she wasn't too incredibly happy with her lot in life. I mean, she liked tricking people - but that was sorta empty, too. Then, as fate would have it, destiny clunked her on the head with a brick. Well, not really destiny - actually, it was a ninja from the Hidden Leaf village that had realized he had been scammed and managed to catch up with her. And it wasn't a brick; it was a boot. Kinda hurt.
At this point, of course, she was in a bit of trouble. Sure, she could run pretty fast- but a ninja could probably run a good deal faster. She had a slight advantage, because she knew the area- but that probably wouldn't be enough to help her out of this mess. She was getting the feeling that she was pretty much screwed.
Enter Koriki.
After a fun little skirmish between the tiger and the ninja, things settled down. The ninja recognized Ryuuki's 'hidden talent' at ninjutsu- after all, how many people can summon a giant tiger with no training?- and invited her to come to the Hidden Leaf village. Ryuuki had her doubts, but, then again, if she *did* have a talent at it.... (note, that the ninja thought her to be a boy - and she has never corrected that. So far as anyone knows, and so far as I will be roleplaying her, everyone considers Ryuuki to be male. And Ryuuki is perfectly satisfied with that.)
Ryuuki went along with the ninja, deciding to try it out and see how it goes. She sort of... floundered at it. Ryuuki doesn't really seem to be all that good at ninjutsu at all- while she's fast and agile, she doesn't have an aggressive sort of mindset. While Koriki might be her summon, so far as anyone can tell, she can't actually *summon* him - he shows up when he wants to and leaves when he wants to, and that's that. She's a lot better at pulling pranks and filching things then throwing shuriken and studying Jutsus. While much of this is attributed to the fact that she had never really known a ninja before she turned 10, most people don't have much faith in her or the idea that she might one day become a powerful ninjutsu master - her least of all. And the damn tiger is none too helpful - all he does is scorn her and complain about having to be connected to such an idiot.

Name: Kagetsu, Nibori (Raven_Winterchill)
EXP: 0
Weapon: 30 ft. of chain. On one end is a sickle, and on the other a cylindrical 30 lbs. weight.
Age: 14
Height: 5’2”
Weight: 110 lbs
Village: Hidden Leaf
Rank: Genin
Time: Pretty much every day, although the actual time I’m on will vary.
Team: N/A
Sensei: N/A
Primary Jutsu: Ninjutsu
Justsus learned:
*Henge no Jutsu/Transformation Skill
*Kawarimi no Jutsu/Body Substitute Skill
*Bunshin no Jutsu/Clone Skill
*Katon/Flame
*Tameru Naginata no Jutsu/Straighten Naginata Skill
Sends chakra through a limp object, straightening it for a temporary amount of time. The straightened object is rigid enough to be used as a staff.
Desc: With straight black hair reaching slightly down his shoulders, there is somewhat of an ominous look to Nibori. Jumping to such conclusions would be quite incorrect, however. It seems a smile, or some sort of variation thereof, is always plastered on his face, under blue eyes that never exit the smiling look. Wearing his headband around his neck, so it “doesn’t mess up my hair”, Nibori’s got a sort of ego thing going on.
He wears a ratty blue denim vest over a green shirt, with short cuffs. His tan pants are fairly loose for easy movement, but are often tighter than he’d like. His white socks cover up his feet, and both are placed in wooden sandals.
Bio: Nibori doesn’t come from a particularily noteworthy ninja family. Sure, the Kagetsu have always been around in Konoha, but they’ve not gained any real fame. And they’re fairly happy with that. They’re a laid-back, easy-going family, and Nibori is no different. Lazing off when he can, he’s a ninja simply because he enjoys doing it.
An eventful life is not exactly what you would call Nibori’s, because he made a conscious effort to keep it lazy. Without any real angst or such to drive him, he’s become just an overall nice guy, and doesn’t really make enemies.
It should be noted that Nibori’s a bit of a pervert...he has been caught before spying on girls, and it’s very likely he’ll try to do so again. Making use of ninjutsu techniques to become unnoticed while spying has given him a bit of an incentive to really excel in the field.

((*saves a special post for team-related stuff*))

Mitzuo looks about the area.
"Gez..it's abit far from the village.."

The place seemed like an ordinary forest just with some spots groomed to fit a trainning area. It was a nice day, the sun was up and high at the time of the day. The trees shielded away the intense sun ray, but some still manage to slip by.

Mitzuo winces at the sun and walks deeper into the forest. She sees the a good spot and sat down on a tree branch.

Kimiko wandered over to Akira and sat down next to him, looking at his equipment, "Heya squirt. Whatchya doin'? How's Mr.Bleedy?"

((I needta think of a mini mission for you guys while we wait out this week...))

"Hey sensei..."
Mitzuo called out, seeing the two sitting across not to far away.

"Will we be getting our forehead protectors? After all, we did just graduate from the Academy I guess."

Ehh, how troublesome.

Akira stood up and re-packed his equipment. He looked around before speaking to Mitzuo.

Well, shall we go?

As Mitzuo looked around, she couldn't find her sensei.

Kimiko had simply dissapeared.


((she'll come back when you guys are almost done the mission. XD So just post without me for the next little while.

And the riddle... I don't want to give too many clues, but just think. If I told you where the things were, then why would I give you another riddle on where they are? xd ))
