Ninpocho Chronicles is a fantasy-ish setting storyline, set in an alternate universe World of Ninjas, where the Naruto and Boruto series take place. This means that none of the canon characters exists, or existed here.
Each ninja starts from the bottom and start their training as an Academy Student. From there they develop abilities akin to that of demigods as they grow in age and experience.
Along the way they gain new friends (or enemies), take on jobs and complete contracts and missions for their respective villages where their training and skill will be tested to their limits.
The sky is the limit as the blank page you see before you can be filled with countless of adventures with your character in the game.

Character Age: 16 Gender: Male Character's Physical Description: Young male with an athletic build. More toned then muscular as he is very physically fit but more suited for speed then strength. Character's Mental Description: Trust issues due to his troubled past. He's still young, but has seen plenty of training and combat though he's never killed a person so he does not know the weight of taking a life. He's strong for his age so he is arrogant and typical of a child his age tends to fly off the handle at times. Multiple Personality Application: Character History: Born during a war, Shiromaru was quickly orphaned. However, he was taken in by a group of bandits. He was only 7 when they found him. He had a a basic training in the shinobi arts but due to his young age, he didn't know very much. The leader of the bandits was an ex-shinobi. He had defected from the hidden Mist village. Over the years, Shiromaru trained under the bandit leader and he grew to see the man as a father figure. However as the years passed, Shiormaru began to disagree with the methods his sensei employed. Shiromaru was not fond of sneaking around or lying to others to gain results. He preferred a more direct method. Due to a fundamental difference in approach on how to do a certain job, Shiromaru and his sensei ultimately came to the conclusion that Shiromaru was better off taking some time to be on his own. So off he went to pursue life on his own. Confident in his abilities that he'd learned over the last 9 years, he set off.

That's the last thing we are waiting on.
Minamoto Shiromaru was not originally born a Minamoto. There was once a time when he belonged to a family. His family were simple folk, not trained in the shinobi arts so for the beginning of his childhood, Shiromaru led a simple life. He played with the other children of his village that were his age. His favorite thing to do was to run with the other kids. He was too young to understand what an actual foot race was, but his parents would always catch him either chasing after other kids or being chased by them while playing. However life would not always be so simple and easy for the young boy. Tragedy would strike his humble family in the form of a bandit raid. Living among the outskirts of fire country, their small community was subject to bandit raids every so often. Due to being so far away from a shinobi village and during the midst of a war of shinobi caliber there was little protection they had outside the usual means of pitchforks, knives and farm equipment. Usually no one died in these raids as the bandits knew that any actual casualties would bring shinobi attention their way, they were content with simply stealing a bit of money and some valuables here and there. The system worked for the most part. The villagers would give some minor form of resistance but ultimately succumb to the might of the bandits as they had superior weapons and fighting skill.
One day a few men broke into Shiromaru's humble home and attempted to steal some of Shiro's toys. They weren't worth much but that bandit in particular wanted them all the same. Until then, they had only taken things of actual monetary value so when this man attempted to steal one of Shiromaru's toys, his mother, Diana made the mistake of trying to defend her child's things and in a scuffle the bandit ended up stabbing the woman. In a fit of rage, his father, Tetsu fought the bandit and the two of them ended up killing each other. Shiro otherwise was hiding in a closet and could only hear the conflict and screams. He dared not leave his hiding spot until he could hear footsteps echoing from the silence that had befallen the small household.
Suddenly the doors of the closet young Shiromaru was hiding in swung open and the man standing in front of him was none other then the bandit leader. Reaching down to grab hold of the young Shiro, he picked the boy up and held him in his arms, then walking out of the house with Shiromaru in his arms, the child was unfortunate enough to see several splashes of blood. This would serve to haunt him for the rest of his days. The bandit leader took the boy back with him as he and his goons left the small village of farmers and merchants. Once they were back to the camp the bandit leader took Shiromaru into his fairly large tent to speak with the boy privately.
???: You know why you're here boy?
Shiromaru: ...
???: Your parents are dead boy. Theres no hidin' that. And for what its worth, you have my condolences.
Shiromaru: ...
???: If you're not gonna talk, then just listen.
Shiromaru: ...
???: My name is Minamoto Kuromaru. I lead this band of bandits.
Shiromaru: ...
Kuromaru: So... whats your name boy?
Shiromaru: ...
Kuromaru: This silent act is startin ta get real annoyin kid. Keep it up and my patience for you is gonna fade away. So I'll ask ya one more time. Whats ya name?
Shiromaru: It... its Shiromaru.
Kuromaru: That-a-boy. I'll call ya Shiro for short. Unfortunate as our meeting is, if you have any other family, I'll deliver you to them if ya like.
Shiromaru: I... I don't have any more family. Just my mom and paw.
Kuromaru: Well. If thats the case, then I can take you back to your village, or... you can join us. One of my men stole something he had no business stealing. So for that, I owe you at least food and shelter until you can take care of yourself. I may be a thief, but there is honor among us thieves.
Shiromaru: I don't know what to do. But I miss my mom.
Kuromaru: Well ya moms not comin back for ya kid. Sorry but its tha truth. But if you want a decent shot at makin ya own family one day, I'd stick around if I were you.
Shiromaru: My own family? Whats that mean?
Kuromaru: When you grow up. One day you'll have your own woman and kid to call your own. And if you stick with me kid, you'll be strong enough to make sure what happened to YOUR parents doesn't happen to your new family. See ya folks was weak kid. Weak in body, but you, I see strength in you.
Shiromaru: What do you mean?
Kuromaru: I see potential inside you kid. Potential to take you far. So what do you say? A new family to replace your lost one? Or we take you back to fend for yourself.
Shiromaru: I don't wanna lose my family. So can you really make me strong?
Kuromaru: Without a doubt in my mind kid. Without a doubt in my mind.
After their conversation, Kuromaru brought the young boy out to introduce him to the rest of the band of bandits. Shiromaru was but a child, but most of the bandits understood their leader's logic on the format. They knew him to be an honorable man and since the boy's parents were killed by one of their own, it only made sense to offer the young child a new one in compensation.
Years passed.
Shiromaru was budding into a strong young lad. He was becoming a skilled and adept thief on his own right. Kuromaru was teaching him personally and whats more, the boy had a natural talent for the craft, particularly slight of hand. He was fast and Kuromaru could tell. Their family of thieves eventually evolved into a group of mercenaries. Simply stealing valuables was not enough to sustain them for too long so they turned to hired help. Several of the men picked up guns whereas Kuromaru opted to stick with his fists and wits. Following after his sensei's footsteps, Shiromaru also trained his hand to hand combat. He did however, have trouble with genjutsu. One training session stuck out in Shiromaru's mind though. It was the day that Kuromaru decided to teach him how to surpass the physical limitations of the human body. The group was located in some woods outside the maws of Stone country. Kuro and Shiro were a good ways away from the rest of their family before they began training. Ample space was usually needed for their sparing sessions.
Kuromaru: You ready kid?
Shiromaru: I'm gonna get you this time old man.
Kuromaru: 'Grats on the confidence, but I aint losin ta no 11 year old kid who's balls aint even dropped yet.
Shiromaru: I'll drop your balls!
The two began fighting. Shiromaru's style was much less refined then Kuromaru's. The man who was entering his early forties had salt and pepper dreadlocks and preferred to wear suits. However, at this moment in time, he was dressed in two toned white and black training gi with bandages wrapped around his hands. Shiromaru being of a naturally smaller build, white hair and tan skin wore martial arts pants with his hands and feet wrapped in bandages. As the two squared off, Kuromaru always waited for Shiromaru to attack first. He believed that teaching the child how a proper defense is used, the boy would eventually learn how to use one himself. Fighting hand to hand, with his size and speed, Shiromaru was already on an equal footing with his now father figure. The young child had taken the words that Kuromaru said to him to heart. He would grow strong enough to protect the ones he cared about. They wouldn't fall prey to harm so long as he stood. However fast Shiromaru was, Kuromaru had the boy beat in experience.
-Blocking several punches and kicks with ease-
Kuromaru: Focus kid. You're starting to get frustrated and its throwing you off.
-Trying his hardest to hit the man-
Shiromaru: Why can't I hit you? WHY.CAN'T.I.EVER.HIT.YOU!
-grabbing Shiro's foot and throwing him into a tree-
Kuromaru: Because you lack discipline. You must focus you mind and body as one before you can see me kid.
-Pulling himself from a tree-
Shiromaru: Ok ok ok... focusing.
Shiromaru continued to attack as relentlessly as he had been and there was no change. Kuromaru continued to block the boy's actions with little effort and this only proved to infuriate the boy.
Kuromaru: How can you be so fast and still so slow. Stop trying to hit me and HIT ME!
-As he's throwing a powerful punch towards Kuromaru-
Shiromaru: i'M TRYING!
There was a sharp increase in his speed at the last moment of this punch. However small it was, it was enough to throw Kuromaru's timing off from the attack and he took the brunt of the boy's punch stright to the face. Luckily the punch came from a 11 year old boy and not a full grown man or it may have knocked him unconscious though it did however, knock him back several feet. The fact that Shiro's fist managed to make impact upon Kuromaru's face caused him to pause and marvel at his new accomplishment. However, Kuromaru wasn't feeling the same sentiments.
Taking full advantage of the boy's pause, Kuromaru struck the child with a 16 piece combo that would make Col.Sanders jealous. The end of the combo resulted in Shiro's body dropping to the ground and his knees and elbows were too weak to properly pick him back up.
-Struggling to get up-
Shiromaru: What... what was that?
-Rubbing his chin-
Kuromaru: The next stage of your training beginning.
-He begins to walk away from the boy-
Kuromaru: When you get back to your tent, there will be a present waiting for you.
Shiromaru spat out some blood and struggled to get up. Though his body hurt, he couldn't shake the happiness that was the fact that he managed to finally strike Kuromaru in the face. Kuromaru on the other hand was actually secretly happy. The boy he took in at the age of 7 had grown so fast over these last three years. And whats more... the child didn't even know that in his frustration, the attack that actually landed upon his face was aided by him briefly opening a gate.
Months passed.
After one normal training session, Kuromaru set Shiromaru down to have a chat about the next stage of the boy's training. The band of thieves turned mercenaries was doing well for themselves. They had lost a few men but they were still going strong. However, if they wanted to elevate their pay rates, they would need to take on higher difficulty missions. This meant everyone needed to step their game up. This also meant that Kuromaru needed to have Shiromaru's training progress a bit faster. As they sat down inside his tent, they would speak more so as father and child then master and student.
-Rubbing his chin-
Kuromaru: You know... you can take those off while we're talking. At least while you're sleeping.
-Struggling to move his arms into a comfortable position while he sits down.-
Shiromaru: Gotta get stronger. You wore these weights when you were young. I can do it too.
Kuromaru: For the record. I was 15 and those weights didn't weigh as much as I did. You're like 12. And can barely walk.
Shiromaru: I'm fine.
Kuromaru: Sure you are... but anyway. Thats not why I called you in here.
Shiormaru: Whats that?
Kuromaru: You remember when I brought you here? And why?
Shiromaru: Yeah. One of your goons killed my folks. And you offered to teach me how to let that not happen again.
Kuromaru: Goons? You sound pretty perturbed by that. Still a tender spot for you eh?
Shiromaru: Well you would be too if your parents were killed in front of you.
Kuromaru: Touche. But we're getting off subject. Point is... what I offered you when you first got here. You're ready to step to the next level. Like how my master taught me, I plan to teach you. But full disclosure. I'm teaching you for my personal gain. But that doesn't mean you can't use what I'm going to teach you for yourself either.
Shiromaru: Oooookay?
Kuromaru: I'm going to teach you how to surpass the limits of normal humans.
-In awe-
Shiromaru: You can do that?
Kuromaru: I can. But you've never seen me do it. Why do you think that is?
Shiromaru: You never needed to?
Kuromaru: No. Well yeah... but mostly because the risks usually outweigh the benefits unless its entirely necessary. So I'm not teaching you this so you can use it all the damn time. Got it kid?
-With a confused face but strangely optimistic-
Shiromaru: You make it sound like its something quick to teach.
- Chuckling a bit-
Kuromaru: Oh ho no... Not even a little bit. You're gonna hate every second of this.
-Aggravated and slightly confused-
Shiromaru: Why you sound so happy about that?
Kuromaru: Because its gon' be hilarious. Now meet me at the training area.
Once Shiromaru managed to struggle his way into the training area, he was already winded from carrying those weights. Mentally, he was cursing himself for not thinking to take them off before a fight. However, as the arena came into view, he grew to be more confused. The ring was not set up for fighting. There were several bamboo poles stuck into the ground. Their tops were flat and they were spaced about a foot apart. Walking up to the strange scene Shiro inquired about what was going on.
- Puzzled-
Shiromaru: Whats this?
-Smug-
Kuromaru: The most painful training conceivable.
Shiromaru: So what am I supposed to do?
Kuromaru: Meditate. You're gonna balanced on these until you can't anymore.
-Skeptical-
Shiromaru: No seriously... how long?
Kuromaru: Until you can't.
Shiromaru: Thats... not cool.
Kuromaru: My master made me do it too. Sucked the most ass in the world, but it paid off. Now hop up there. You don't master what I'm teaching you, you'll never be on my level. You've got the potential to be great kid. You're already faster then I was at your age. The lesson here is to focus your mind and body as one. It takes focus to balance yourself on these poles, but it also takes the physical endurance to maintain it. So hop to it.
-taking the weights off-
Shiromaru: Fine.
Kuromaru: So yeah... meditate. And don't fall. Fall and you don't eat tonight.
Shiromaru: Not cool sensei.
Kuromaru: Just do it.
The boy made his way to the top of the bamboo poles and assumed a crossed legged position. He wasn't much for meditation, but he would give it a try. The mind of an 11 year old was rarely capable of such a mature feat as meditation called for. However, he had the physical prowess to balance himself on the several rods he now sat on. So he would use his physical restraint to keep his balance. The one downside to this was that he was only doing half the exercise. His body was steadily growing tired because he wasn't at rest. He was in a state of constant stress and it was wearing on his body. His mind was becoming frazzled and he was getting tired. Minutes seemed like an eternity and he was unsure of how much longer he'd be able to hold himself up.
He fell.
Kuromaru came out of his tent to check on the boy and was seemingly not surprised at all.
-Smug-
Kuromaru: 3 minutes. Better'n I expected.
-Exhausted-
Shiromaru: What was that? Why was that so hard?
Kuromaru: Cause you was usin' only ya body and none of yo mind. Its a two part exercise. Can't do it unless ya usin both ya brain and body. Try again. Cause you aint gettin fed till ya can last at least an hour.
-Exasperated-
Shiromaru: I'll die!
-Serious-
Kuromaru: Like your parents.
-Angry-
Shiromaru: Fuck you!
-Smug-
Kuromaru: Focus that anger on ya task kid. See ya tomorrow.
Shiromaru got up and spat at the ground. He was angry that Kuromaru said what he said but he'd been around the ma long enough to know that Kuro only said it to make him angry so that he could redirect that anger to the task at hand. However it didn't stop him from being upset by the comment. After staring at the poles for a few minutes, Shiromaru got back up and worked his way back to the top of the bamboo poles from hell. He'd try his hand at this meditation. After only a few seconds he could feel the strain of his muscles again. But he was determined to accomplish this task. Attempting to focus his mind he envisioned himself training with Kuromaru. Oddly enough, music was playing. Just what was this?
Kuromaru: Lets get down to business. So you can- Get gainz. Do you e-ven lift bro?
Shiromaru: I want muscles- Like Bane.
Kuromaru: You're the fastest punk I've ever met. But you can bet, before we're through... Somehow admin... will find a way... to nerf youuuuuuuuuuuuuu.
Shiromaru: Like Kagemaru?
Kuromaru: No, like Umashi.
Shiromaru: Who?
Kuromaru: Don't worry about it.
Shiromaru: Tranquil as Empath...
Kuromaru: Like a Pyro... within.
Shiromaru: Make the council laugh, and I'll get... my Kin...
Kuromaru: You're a two bit, charac-ter ripoff. And you're Shiro number two... Somehow admin... will find a way... to nerf youuuuuuu.
Shiromaru: This kins apps the real test.
Kuromaru: Its ok no one really reads these.
Shiromaru: Man these haters really really gonna haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaate.
My builds gonna have em scared to death.
Kuromaru: Hope they don't screw us again.
Shiromaru: Man I really hope I get this Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin.
Kuro/Shiro: Don't get nerfed.
We must be swift as a speeding Seikon.
Don't get nerfed.
With all the force of S Rank Jutsu.
Don't get nerfed.
With all the strength of roid rage Reckless.
Don't get nerfed.
Mysterious as that one Hyuuga Dojutsuuuuuuuuuu.
His eyes opened and it was the morning time. He was awoken to the sound of birds chirping. The sun was beginning to gleam in his eyes and as the boy looked down he could see the pepper hair of his master staring up at him.
Kuromaru: Meditation montage?
Shiromaru: what in the world was that?
Kuromaru: Something you'll never understand. But it means you've got what it takes.
Shiromaru: Can I get down now? I think my... whole body went to sleep.
Kuromaru: Yeah you should probably get down now.
What Kuromaru didn't tell the boy was that he literally only expected him to last about 10 minutes up there. The boy had been there for hours.
Over the next few years, Kuromaru trained Shiro in the ways of surpassing human limitations. It wasn't until Shiromaru was 16 that the training began to bare fruits. At this point, the group they had started as, was now just them and a small handful of other mercenaries. They had set up camp outside a small village in lightning country. Their band of mercenaries had dwindled to but a handfull but they were all the best of the best. Some men had falen, some had decide to quit, some were forcibly let go but the ones that remained were loyal and trusted. As Shiro and Kuro squared up had one thing on their mind. Kuro simply wished the boy to be able to surpass him in skill. Shiro wished to beat the shit out of Kuromaru for once in his life.
Kuromaru: Ready fa' this kiddo?
-smug-
Shiromaru: C'mon old man, you know you can't handle me anymore. I'm the new hotness. You're old and played out.
-defensive-
Kuromaru: Don't be hatin on my hair yo. Ladies say it looks distinguished.
-sarcastic-
Shiromaru: You'd know that if you could get a woman.
-Smug-
Kuromaru: Coming from the kid who's V card is practically laminated.
-Flustered-
Shiromaru: Stop tryna get under my skin. I'm gonna beat you today so don't pull no punches. So I can say I kicked your ass while you were at your best. Well... almost your best. You kinda old now.
-Equally flustered-
Kuromaru: Hol' on now. I aint old. Just for that, I'm getting serious right off the bat.
-Smug-
Shiromaru: I'd expect nothin le-...
Kuromaru launched a ferocious punch at Shiro who dodged the technique with relative ease. He didn't take the time out to make a quip because fast as he was, Kuromaru being serious was nothing to be trifled with. Shiro wouldn't be simply defending, he would launch his own attacks at Kuromaru in hopes of allowing his speed to out maneuver the man. It was difficult, but Kuromaru countered this technique with clones. Several clones in fact. They littered the battle field and Shiro was unsure on how to go about defeating them all without leaving himself open. He could counter with clones of his own, but Shiro's clones were not as powerful as Kuro's clones and he knew that. Shiromaru decided to bait the real Kuromaru into attacking him by leaving himself open. Attacking one of the Kuro-clones, it dispersed into birds and Shiro could already feel Kuro's counterattack coming. But the boy was prepared. As Kuromaru struck at Shiro's back, Shiro's body split into several clones as well. After-Images of Shiro rivaled the number of clones Kuromaru had left. All of the Shiro-clones smirked as they realized their plan worked. However, it would seem that the warm-up was over.
Kuromaru: I'll give ya a taste of what you could be.
An aura of chakra began to swirl around Kuromaru. In a flash of energy his brown skin turned a dark red shade and his pupils were gone.
Kuromaru: And this... this is what its like to go beyond!
More chakra began to be expelled from his body and the muscles on his body began to bulge.
Shiromaru: Well if you're going to get serious, then I should as well!
Taking a similar position as Kuromaru, Shiromaru began to expel chakra from his body as well. It wasn't long before his skin began to change from light brown to red and his pupils were no longer visible. Shiro's frame however did not expand.
Kuromaru: You've gotten strong over the last 9 years.
Shiromaru: You gave me a good reason to. Now stop talking and get rekt.
Their fight would wage on until a winner was victorious.
[spoilername="Summary and Things Left Out Purposely"]Summary: Shiromaru's parents were killed in a bandit raid and he was adopted by the leader and trained under him. In a sparing match, Shiromaru tapped into the energy of a gate unknowingly, prompting Kuromaru to increase Shiro's training. After a few years Shiromaru began training harder to surpass the natural limitations of humans. Years later he was tested a final time and succeeded in opening a gate (hopefully).
Note: Seikon is being RP'd as natural talent. He's naturally fast, not due to genetics.
Information Left Out on Purpose:
- Anything going into too much detail about Kuromaru's backstory.
A: Because this is about Shiro, not Kuro.
- Members of the mercenary group and their details.
A: See Above.
- Details of what the group did as a mercenary unit.
A: Not exactly needed to get where Shiro got his training from.
- Victor of the sparring session at the end.
A: Will be detailed in the NPC write up for Kuromaru.
Note: I plan to apply for Kuromaru to be an INPC, however, he requires his own Kin app and I'll do that later.
Note: Both Shiromaru and Kuromaru will occasionally break the 4th wall. Not to the level of Deadpool where they know they are fictitious creations, but will occasionally mention something they don't know anything about and will usually brush it off. It wont ever actually dictate a serious action. -See meditation montage- That was writen off as a dreamish type of deal.[/spoilername]
uhhhh.
Well, I need to take this to Stone and Cloud for mentioning their countries.
And I'm gonna take your app into council (as it requires multiple approvals)
I had limbo training mentioned in sand's OCR info, sadly it is just a small blurb. Basically it is letting people post after they have died an innoculous training post somewhere assuming they are still in other threads. Since you are not in any other threads because you are a one-thread kinda guy. I would suggest doing one of those short single post mini things in Sand (your last known location) where you are spying on someone or something you would do back in V5.0 when we hadda do those weekly single post trainings in our training threads.
Just to clarify, you do those posts here in the OCR.. do not actually post in sand. But have it set in sand.. do that and one of us will handle your Limbo Training.
