Darkened eyes, and a boyish face. He is tall and lanky, standing at around 6 foot and weighing just under 190 lbs. He is always in a white robe with a sheath loosely attached to him. He usually wears comfortable shoes of some sort, covered by the robes that drape down to the floor. No other real noticeable features about him, besides being left handed, and that he doesn’t seem to have ever held his weapon at all, judging from the strength of the grip of his hands. [b]Character's Mental Description[/b]: Stalwart, wary and always on the lookout would be the best description of the Nanjirou. Ever since escaping from his old village he hasn’t really done anything but become more cautious in his age. However when relaxed he can be flirty, and hasn’t really any kind of social barrier including not being afraid to try new things or even worry about what others would think of what he does. He’s also a real sucker when being flirted at too,and can sometimes have commitment issues from not really having a reliable team to back him up. [b]Multiple Personality Application[/b]: None [b]Character History[/b]: No changes made since last approval. [spoiler]Sunuke was born to a clan of Nanjirou in the Leaf Village that had traded their ability to fight in order to utilize the spirits that once existed to fight for them. Using their special form of Iaido and mixing it with their training in the occult. They never touched their ancestral swords, keeping them in the sheathes, while at the same time allowing the spirits to use them for their fighting to improve their honour in the spirit world beyond. The Nanjirou was one of these, having to pretend that it was a special ninjutsu that allowed them to control their swords like that. When in all honesty he knew that it wasn’t kinetic ninjutsu, the the other world fighting for his clan. However he wasn’t able to learn this ability just yet. He hadn’t found a spirit to bond with and ask for help in this world. And because of that he wasn’t allowed a sword, but would have to use a bow as a humiliation for not being able to find a spirit straight away. Every time he wasn’t training to become stronger for the village he was training to locate spirits and find one that would bond with him. He would search through the spirits of thousands of years to find a swordsman who would train with him and find the sword of theirs to be the sentinel. Instead he would find nothing but rejection, or nothing. Training through the ranks, he became a master of ranged fighting and yet he still felt humiliated that as a clan of sword fighting, he was banned from using a sword until he made a bond with a spirit. Even becoming an ANBU and training in the arts of assassination would still not make his clan ever more proud of him. No matter how many bad guys he got, or missing nin he caught they would never seem to be proud of him in any way, shape or form. He started to become disillusioned in his clan, and therefore in himself. He was a disappointment to his family for not having any sword skills, ignored by the samurai for joining ninja branches, and made fun of by ninja for being a samurai clansmen joining the ninja branches. And after years of training with a bow and arrow he found that no strength to wield a sword himself. He felt lonely, and a disgrace to his ancestors that lived in Leaf. Even being named after an old Leaf samurai didn’t help him gain any respect with the spirits or his family. It didn’t seem like he was going to get anywhere. Being a moody teenager at this point of his life was causing him to start to become daring, and relying less on the spirits of his family to help him. He instead focused on hunting, and staying out late to be away from his family. But this only caused tensions between him and the clan, which was then noticed by Leaf that tensions were brewing in the Nanjirou clan. In a moment of weakness, Sunuke sneaked into his own clans house to steal a sword to use. However the one he took was too heavy to wield due to how weak he had become by using a bow and arrow set. He didn’t feel like he could wield it himself, but he could try. “What are you doing?!” A voice cried out behind him. It was one of the elders of the clan who had heard the sound of someone opening the gates at the middle of the night. Old people did tend to wake up a lot during the night. “You were barred from ever holding one of our swords! Sunuke jumped from hearing the loud noise and behind him, and dropped the ancestral sword. It shattered into pieces and fell over the place as his face realized what he did. “I-I’m sorry I didn’t mean t-“ but before he could apologise the elder screamed in anguish and fear, before turning around to alert everyone that the moody teenager had just doomed the clan by annoying the spirits. It was the first time that someone had disrespected their clan in this way, and it was one of their own. A meeting was called about what to do, and the only option they found that the spirits could agree with was to abandon Sunuke, and force him to take the broken sword with him. He was to not be allowed back into the clan at all. Fearing for his safety, Sunuke took the pieces. He would keep them in a satchel and he was to leave immediately. He woulkd find himself homeless, friendless and above all else: without purpose. Remembering his training as an Anbu, he had learned how people tried to go missing. And from that he learned the smartest ways to escape without alerting Leaf of what was happening. He figured that if he could get out then he could find purpose to what he was meant to do. If the spirits had truly abandoned him then why was he bothering staying in a place that would remind him how much of a failure, he was. He took the satchel with him, keeping it safe as he snuck out of the village and into the surrounding forests, not to return to where he lost all hope. He instead decided that it would be best for him to go and reforge the sword that he had broken and get it repaired so he could use it. He would eventually find a forge outside the village and paid for his sword to be repaired in the same style as it one was, using the hot flames to bring it back to its former glory. However it was still too heavy for the Nanjirou to use, so it would instead just sit in its sheath. Sunuke sighed, as he didn’t really know what to do now that he fixed the sword. So he would just do what he used to do, try and locate a spirit to make a pact with, and train hard enough. At least those two were certainties in his life, even if his family house had abandoned him and he was now all alone. He did his usual practice of sitting in front of a sheath, though this time it did have a sword in it. He would pray to the spirits to reveal themselves to him so that he may forge a pact with one of them. He kept praying harder and harder until he heard a voice call out to him. It was one of the ancestral spirits that defended the clan and helped lead the village they once lived in. Sunuke would bow his head to the floor as he finally was able to find someone who would answer him. It seemed the spirit saw the young missing nin’s desperation and in that moment of need he decided to help. Maybe it was out of pity, or maybe it was the desire to fight with honour once more. A pact was made between Sunuke and the spirit, on the condition that he never touched the hilt or blade with the sword, and that the blade would do the fighting, not him. He was to be as passive as possible, and only through training would he gain the ability to fuse with the sword and to become the weapon. Sunuke agreed to the pact, and allowed the spirit to wield the sword as if he was still around. Now with the spirit one his side, Sunuke was considered a member of the clan again… at least in his eye he was. The Nanjirou would train, channeling the spirit to grip the sword and pull it from the sheath, before striking at targets. He could point out the targets to fight, and because the sword was away from him he could hide or focus on dodging. He did notice that the sword did struggle to use taijutsu attacks. He didn’t mind too much since he could give some support on that. The spirit was getting stronger and quicker with controlling a sword it couldn’t actually physically hold. Though it looked like the sword was in the hands of the spirit there was no tangible physical connection. Training took years, between hiding from Leaf hunter-nin and trying to improve the bond between Sunuke and his spirit would take a long time until where he was today. With years of training how to be passive and let the sword do all the work had left him looking flimsy, but at the same time he was quite sturdy because of all the concentration he needed to allow the spirit to take hold of his weapon. The bond kept growing stronger with each passing day, and by the time he decided to leave the country and explore the world he could seamlessly attack without moving his hands. He was beginning to get known in the villages outside the ninja villages as the man with the possessed sword. The bond between the Nanjirou and the sword was much stronger than anyone who normally wielded a weapon, and instead he found himself more likely to win than against normal sword users due to people underestimating his fighting style. Eventually on his journeys he met a younger girl who could also see spirits. She was part of Kumogakure and called Yuii. Though they bonded over their interest of spirits, Sunuke still had to find himself before he could journey with her. But he made a promise to Yuii to come visit her when he was ready. And with that, he and his now bonded weapon continued their journey to strengthen their bond, and to find a way to redeem themselves to their family and the village they left in turmoil.[/spoiler] [b]Clan Request[/b]: No clan request [b]Death/Retirement Thread[/b]: N/A [b]Old Profile[/b]: https://ninpocho.com/viewtopic.php?f=77&t=53026 [b]Old Training[/b]: https://ninpocho.com/viewtopic.php?f=79&t=53081 [b]Old Dojo[/b]: https://ninpocho.com/viewtopic.php?f=78&t=53115 [b]Special Usergroups[/b]: Not in any groups.
