Character's Physical Description:
Jien is a tall lad with a average frame and toned muscles. He has short messy white hair, almost curling along the ends of the fringes. He once had vibrant purple colored eyes when he was a child, but has now turned darker almost greyish in color. He has a natural tan complexion. He is usually seen wearing his bluish-grey parka over a black undershirt, with white pants combat shoes. A circular amulet would always hang around his neck. This can be considered as his field and mission clothes, with the metal plate of Kumogakure located on the buckle of his belt. His other choice of wardrobe is a white button-up dress shirt and a pair of black pants and boots. On this, he uses the amulet as a necktie of sorts, and is mostly when he needs to attend in some formal gathering.

Character's Mental Description:
As a person… Jien can be laid-back. He is very much grounded to reality that he is more of a realist than an optimist. In fact, he may come out rude or pessimistic so long as he shows the blunt reality that is before him. But that is only when he speaks his mind. He isn’t someone who like to rub his own thoughts into others, nor someone who wants to gossip. He can be observant, but he doesn’t take it upon himself to act on it unless necessary. If asked how he would define himself, Jien would, no doubt, answer that he is just an ordinary man trying to get by one day at a time.

As a shinobi… Jien is perceptive but follows the directive more than anything else. He has been trained since he was young about the harsh realities of the world, and of the sufferings needed. Consequences are treated as part of the job, and so he must always focus on getting the job done with an objective mind. Over the years, over many scars and near death experiences, Jien has long abandoned inhibitions. He has hardened himself to the point of breathing life and death together, of seeing and tasting blood, of ignoring the pains and merciless fighting style. He believes that only those who are quick and determined can ever achieve anything, as such, he prides himself with his marksmanship– an ability he honed for years and never once failed him.

As a foreigner in service of a foreign land… Jien has never shied away from admitting that he wasn’t born in Lightning Country, though he would often escape further questions. Somehow, there’s a strange determination in him to become a valuable asset to Kumogakure. At one point, he exclaimed how he was fascinated and in awe about the organised structure, particularly with the power and responsibilities that the known Sennins and the Raikage had. Because of this, he is quite eager to prove his mettle to become part of the Kumogakure system.

As an okonomiyaki lover… Jien doesn’t shy away from spending his money to eat okonomiyaki everyday. In fact, if given the opportunity, he’d eat it all his life. Nothing could ever separate him from this one true love of his, lest they who dare are willing to earn his ire.

Character History:
Origin & CA: Hawkeye
As far as Jien could remember, he had always held a gun. Whether it was for self-defense or for assault, the smell of gunpowder had always been a familiar fume, and the recoil on his arm was the perfect tension to know that he was alive. He was an orphan in the streets of the underground slums of Earth Country, knowing only to fend for himself lest he be the victim of others. As such, he would eventually meet a certain gang that roamed around his vicinity and eventually would be taken in by them. Life growing with them was harsh but also full of adventure. If he could get past their abuses and insults, he actually learned a lot from them, especially the use of a gun. His first kill was when he was 7 and ever since he was constantly made use by the gang for their own survival. After all, while Arcadia, the lost capital of the underground world, was known to having rich miners, there were also those who were cast with misfortune. As such, the envy of those who have nothing led to many gangs that would try to accumulate their own wealth.

It was only a decade later when he would meet some people from the surface, one being a shinobi from Konohagakure on an observation mission. Their encounter was not one of friendship. A particular robbery that their gang had planned would be stopped by this shinobi, by coincidence, and though the encounter was rough and almost led to his untimely death, Jien was give a choice to properly make use of his talent elsewhere. Of course, while the thought of becoming a shinobi did seem a bit attractive to him, Jien refused the Konoha shinobi and escaped on his own. With the untimely disbanding of their gang, it was the first time that Jien found a strange emptiness, almost as if he didn’t have a goal in sight.

One last robbery got him entangled with a visiting nobleman, whom he would deceive into hiring him as bodyguard. He had only planned to steal this man’s wealth and possession, but as he played along, he eventually found himself brought out into the surface. For the first time, Jien breathed the fresh air and saw the endless sky. Eventually, he forgot the thought of stealing from this nobleman as he agreed to continue to work for him, even gaining new skills and being taught of various things. This nobleman would eventually adopt him, confessing that he knew of Jien’s real plans but took pity on him since he reminded him of his lost daughter, his face resembling hers. As such, for a few years, Jien would live a normal life, being taught the rudiments of language, history and even their family’s business and trade.

But Jien wasn’t one to be tied down that easily. He had lived most of his life in a completely opposite way– one of danger, death, and battles– that a normal life was seemingly impossible. So he made use of the family’s influence to find means to train further. Some of their clients would be accompanied by warriors, soldiers, or even shinobis, that Jien would make use of their time to try and learn from them. Eventually, he would find a master marksman who took an interest to his own inclination of the gun, and because this traveling vagabond didn’t have anywhere else to live, he was allowed to personally train Jien in the nobleman’s estate and live there.

Even then, the heart of a vagabond grew tired of a stale life and decided to leave one day, leaving behind a note for Jien. In it would be the beginning of the lifelong journey of the young lad. His final lesson from the master marksman was, apparently, to find him and duel with him one day. It was a daunting task, considering that he knew well that the words meant that it would be a duel to the death, thus, Jien knew he needed to prepare himself for what could be the ultimate battle of his life. And he could only to do without anything else to hold him back. Because of it, he would bid farewell to the kind nobleman before disappearing for good.

In his travel to train and search for any clues of where his master went, Jien would eventually reach Lightning Country. There, he would learn from some of the villages about Kumogakure. While he was not interested at first, he soon came to understand that Kumogakure was one of the prime shinobi villages in the land, and no doubt their intelligence division would become useful. More importantly, he came to understand, from few of the testimonies of the people he met, that Kumogakure had a long history of strong warriors, commendable shinobis, and esteemed branches that make a difference on a world stage. How much of that was true, he wasn’t certain, but somehow it made Jien remember of that group he once met in Arcadia.

Once, he had somehow dreamt of being free and being able to do what he wanted, back when he was trapped in the gang. It was then when their gang had a run-in with the Kagerenmei, a group who believed in “peace by all means”, who protected the denizens, and whom Jien first felt gratitude to. However, what remains of that group was now just a pile of rocks, ruins, and gravestones. He was still young back then that he couldn’t have understood the gravity of their actions, but Jien knew that they were good, and he once aspired to become part of them.

Perhaps, that dream is not yet completely lost– he thought, as he makes a decision to go to Kumogakure and see if this would change his life. And perhaps, he’ll eventually grow stronger into someone worthy to fight his master one day.

Thus, for the last seven years, Jien has lived in Kumogakure. He trained, worked, and learned to become better, and to become part of a system that he truly believed he could find himself being proud of– Kumogakure. And while becoming a shinobi may not have been a priority in his mind when he was a child, it was now evidently part of who he was. But unlike others that relied on their ninjutsu and illusions and such, Jien had furthered his ability with the gun and rifle. To complement it, he knew taking up different tactics and a suitable hunting partner would be to his advantage, and hopeful would make him a valuable asset to the village.
Kinjutsu: Chimera (reflavored) + CA: Reckless
The crack of lightning in the sky lights up the dark world, and in that split second, Jien saw the reflection of light against the blade that was hovering just above his head. In the dark of night, the enemy had gotten confident to conceal himself within the shadows to create this opportunity. However much he may have wanted to cut down the white-haired warrior, Jien was far from being a sitting duck. As light reflects against his own grey eyes, Jien pulled his hands close towards him and then pivoted on his back foot, entering into a sudden turn to avoid the swinging arc of the blade. A whistle comes in the wake of the completed swing of nothing but air. And in retaliation, Jien completes his turn to face the enemy once more, bring with him the momentum of his step-back and lunge, as he catch the attacker’s sword arm in his closer arm, wrapping along the elbow, and then pulling the enemy close for the cold steel of his handgun to touch the man’s head. Smoke fades into the night air as the echo dies into the distance. Jien picks up the blade from the still body and firmly holds on the handle, testing the weight for a good long moment.

In that instance, a memory surfaces into his mind. Some years back as he was surviving in the underground capital of Earth Country, the Arcadia, his ways of surviving with the gangs had been his introduction to this violent world. Blood was life… scent… and death. It was the constant stint that dwelled in the less than stellar neighbourhood, far from where the rich men and those who struck gold with the mining industry had lived. In this far-reaching neighbourhood, it was almost as if the underground had robbed them of every bit of light. Not even the gems that stuck out from the walls could have been seen as a light, for they merely lay witness to the bloodshed that occurred in those streets. Far from the prying eyes of the righteous– in a world where Jien learned the worth of each bullet he shot– the young warrior would be taught how deadly the blade could be.

It was during one of their gang wars, when they would expand their territory thus crushing the nearby gangs who thought otherwise, that he would witness one of their own easily cut up another. It was terrifying to watch, especially for a child, as blood sprayed to the ground and the walls, a scream so shrill turning deadly silent before the drop of the body. The image would burn itself into the eyes of the members, but for Jien, his eyes were fixated on the blade that their leader held. It dripped of the crimson liquid yet it was still. He could tell there was power in it, yet the power was unstable, almost seemingly reaching out to him. But he stay away from it.

When he a bit older, turning just ten over the few the weeks, he would finally get a taste of handling the blade. The leader expected him to follow him to the very end, and as such, a new skill set was required. Though he was still quite devoted to his instinct that valued the gun that pretty much his weapon of choice, he was a quick learner with the blade. He didn’t like the large swords, rather, he kept with the daggers, the medium-length, and somethings the curved ones. For a boy who was rather average in build, almost underweight to be honest, his hands held the blade’s hilt firmly and each of his strikes were had a purpose, even if it seemed like a reckless dance. A few times he cut himself, but those few times, he never complained. A few times he got cut when he fought another, and still, he never complained.

“You’re creepy,” one of the members said one day, right when they had just finished another turf war. Some of them were returning to their base with cuts and bruises, while others with severed limbs or left behind dead. Jien had a few long cuts on his chest and legs that his blood would pool whenever he stopped to rest. He would take in a long deep breath to relax his muscles and repeat the words in his head: “do not give up.” And so, he would simply smile at those condescending words of his ally, wiping blood off his bruised face and walk on. Nothing would stop him but himself– he thought, and so, as long as he never thought of his death, he would have nothing to fear.

Some of the scars around his body were because he never saw the need to avoid getting wounded, often getting called reckless by his allies. But there was something stimulating about the act of bleeding that made him feel much more alive. It was almost as if each drawing of his blood made his muscles burn and his heart roar. And so, he would prove that he would be a devastating enemy to the other gangs. A gun in one hand and a short sword in the other, he walked with a trail of blood, both his and his enemies.

Once, he almost died from it all, and it was when he learned how it felt to be an asset. He was saved by the gang leader and he would be nursed to health before he would return to the field. Throughout that time, while others pressed on for him to rethink about the value of life, there was just nothing that could seem to make him fear death. “I bleed because I’m alive. Isn’t that enough?” he once asked one of the concerned allies before he would pick up his gun and dagger to prepare for another stand against in a turf war.

At present, Jien grins at the thought of the memory. Indeed, it has been long since he felt the handle of a blade against his calloused hand that only held guns for so long. And it didn’t seem so bad to do so again. Brandishing the blade overhead before settling it to his side, Jien would look up ahead of him to spot a few more of the gathered assailants that thought it was wise to track him in the alleyway and kill him off. That was probably their mistake in this hunt, for he was the hunter and never the prey.

Thus, relishing in the atmosphere, blade in hand, memories resurfacing of every instance, every experience of the sword, and his grin turns into a flat expression. A silent showdown eclipses at the howl of the night breeze, sending Jien dashing without hesitation. The narrow alleyway would not have been ideal, but only for the uninitiated. He was not.

At the reaction of the assailants, Jien leapt off the ground and onto the wall before kicking off to a twist overhead as he dodges their initial strikes. His body moves like instincts possessed him, especially when memories have been selected for this particular action. Then, he spins a slashing swing before shifting the blade as he kicks off from the other wall. Dodge, attack, dodge, attack. Slide away from the reach of the enemy’s blade then counter with his own. Just then, something struck him from behind as he makes for a wide dodge. A hand goes over and he grabs hold of the cold steel before pulling out and throwing it above. More have appeared on the rooftops of the alleyway, seemingly eager to chuck their kunais at him.

He clicked his tongue as he touched the ground, leaving only a few moments to readjust himself before a powerful kick to the ground jumpstarts him towards the assailants with a final slash to kill the one on the ground with him. In his speed, he avoids the next slew of projectiles before he jumps and scales the wall while shifting his other hand to reload his handgun. Then, as he reached the top, he jumped over the hidden attacking assailant, barely missing the broad swing. With deft grace and acrobatic precision, he places the end of the barrel against the man’s head from behind and pulls the trigger, before dropping down to use the now dead assailant as a shield from the incoming kunais of the others. Then, he would rush out and start shooting with precision and speed, getting closer and closer.

One. Two. Three. They drop like rag dolls into the alleyway until Jien slices the last one before a heated stamp of a bullet kisses the center of his head. The impact was enough to throw him off the ledge and straight into the canal on the other side of the alley. From there, Kiri looks on as he counts the bodies. Just like in the report, everyone was accounted for. He nodded as if he was satisfied and then he throws the blade out into the canal waters, before placing his gun back to is holster hidden underneath his coat-jacket.

As he begins to walk away, he realises that he was injured. A short sting on his back makes him remember the kunai that was lucky enough to lodge itself on him. He sighs in frustration before shrugging. He didn’t really want to bother much of it and it’s not like he was going to die from it. There wasn’t any feeling of poison either, so he continued to walk, hoping he could get back to the room he rented in that town so he could have a nice long warm bath.

It was after that mission when he realised that something was changing in him. Jien could feel that it yet he couldn’t put a word to it. Everything was just so natural to him that it was nothing to think about. But perhaps it was because it made things feels so natural and so familiar to him that something was, in fact, causing it. Like the way he held a knife that instantly summoned memories of the way to slash and let go all of his inhibitions. Or the way he believed that he could not imagine a day without touching his precious guns. Or the way he was perceiving others, especially in the training grounds. The coliseum was giving him a hard time lately, for as he trained, his perception easily catches details he would have ignored in the past. Lately, he was remembering everything to the very last detail, of the trainee’s weight, their footwork, their handling prowess and their breathing. He was remembering a technique even as he only seen it once. And he was recreating it perfectly, almost like mirror imagery. It was interesting, almost mysterious, that he couldn’t quite pinpoint what made him so, but he would capitalise on this new phenomena he was experiencing, and so often he would make time for the coliseum to observe and simply learn. Was it like the so-called famous Sharingan? Maybe, who knows, but it wasn’t about copying, it was also about living through it.


One night, Jien was visited by a dream he never once had. It was almost as he if lost himself into the memory of the dream– standing in the courtyard of the nobleman’s mansion, hand pressed on the handle of the gun he possessed. He was a child, once again, and he didn’t seem at all mad about it. In fact, there was a bubbling urge within him that wanted resurface, a strange kind of excitement that could only be explained by that single moment in his life. He was meeting his mentor for the day and he couldn’t help but be excited about it.

Looking to his left, he caught sight his mentor in the distance, walking into the woods. With a big wide smile, Jien ran off to follow. Strange how the concept of the marksman mentor had always been an inspiring urge within his heart and yet the silhouette in his memories was always of a man. But in this dream, she was clearly different. Long dark hair with a feather hairpin, some markings on her face, and a motherly smile. She looked at him with expectant eyes and embraced him before they began their routine training in the woods. There, he would witness her marksmanship unrivalled by any other. It would just be another day in his life, only this time, he would not have to worry about using his gun to kill in order to survive.

However, as they were finishing, with the sun going down over the horizon, something felt amis. She would stop on her tracks and place a hand on his head, saying, “Jien, you’re a very talented child. It’s really sad to think you had to live a life that way until now. I wish there was so much more you could have experienced. Promise me that one day you’ll find me and show me all that you’ve learned.”

It was a peculiar promise, almost as if she was leaving him for good. “Why? Are you going somewhere?” asked Jien, remember the exact words that unfolded that day.

“I’m a nomad. I don’t stay for long in one place. And you’ve been a good student. I’ve met a lot in my lifetime, but never one like you. You are almost like my child, but I know I can’t be selfish. You have a whole life ahead of you. That’s why, even if it’s a little bit, I want to help you make the most of it, to grow stronger and achieve the fullest of your potential.”

At those words, Jien felt something surround him and a shimmer of a bright light on her hand on his head. It was brief so he thought it was merely the sunset’s rays shining through the openings between the canopies, often than not brightly shining her figure. Like the rays of hope. But now that he looked back to this memory, it was highly suspicious, especially with the words she left him after that.

“One day, you’ll come to remember things you would not think of remembering. One day, you’ll experience what you have seen. When that time comes, you’ll find yourself moving to the ways of the natural world, dancing to the tune of the memories. When you remember, let go of your fears and allow yourself to grow further. Only then will you realise that there is more to master, more reason to train, and that perfection is but a myth,” she spoke almost like a chant before he let go of his head. Then, she would give him her prized possession of two handguns. These were the ones that she said she had personally crafted from a famous artisan in a land to the north. “My gift… This might become problematic, and I hope you will not abuse it to the point of endangering yourself. But I do believe you have the right sense of judgment. You’re still young but already, you’ve seen so much. That’s why, when you do use this, please remember everything. So that you will not fall into the traps of men. People forget once they gain power, but memories are more powerful than anything else.”

“What are you saying? I don’t understand,” said the child Jien with a raised brow. She merely laughed and then urged them both to return to the mansion.

“Don’t worry. One day you’ll understand.”

Waking up from the dream, Jien couldn’t quite figure out if it left him with a cold sweat or that his body was burning with fear that he was getting all sentimental and remembering the past. But he did come to a sit on his mattress and leaned against the headboard, eyes searching the simple room he owned in Kumogakure. Only a small light would shine through the window and he loved the ambiance it created, like a serene soft atmosphere to call his own. Glancing to the sidetable, his prized handguns, the one given by his mentor lay still.

“Memories are powerful, huh? I suppose this is part of what’s happening,” he said with a sigh as he ran a hand through his hair, only to stop as he remembered that brief moment of a flash of light when his mentor placed her hand on his head while he was young. “Is this the gift you said? Are you challenging me to learn as many and transform the memories into something only I can wield? If so… thank you.” He went back to sleep soon after, with a content smile on his face.

The next day, he was more than eager to put the theory to the test as he listed himself for a good long day of training in the coliseum. With one sword in one hand, and a gun another, he found himself in a standstill, in a world of memories playing before him, where he could select, he could rethink, and his body would just follow the rhythm it sang. Thus, the more he fought, the more he observed, the better he got. Though by the end of the day, he always got scolded about his recklessness. He always earned a few more cuts, a few more bruises, but that didn’t deter him. If anything, he felt all the more needy for something to push himself.

“Heh? It’s just a scratch,” he would then say, not bothered by the scent of his own blood, “No pain, no gain, right? Besides, unless I bleed, I wouldn’t know if I’m truly living. So if I’m still getting wounded, it just means I need to keep getting better. I just need to make… more memories to activate.”

What is Limbo Training?
This is the training that you would have gotten if you did not move on to your new character's life. Your caps are determined by your rebirthed stats. You must keep a record of your stats gained during limbo in your OCR thread. You may NOT request for an automatic rank up should you find that your new stats allow you to upgrade. Limbo training is only for people who have died in modded combat or suicide. Anyone whose character has not died is still capable of RPing that character until their OCR is finalized, and thus can train as normal.


Things you do NOT need to state, but take note of:
  • Abilities = All of your Abilities are auto-untrained upon rebirth. In order to have any Abilities for your new character, you must activate them by posting in your character’s Dojo topic in your new village.
  • Character History = By suiciding/rebirthing, you're making a new character. This means your new character must not know or remember anything of your old character's life/thoughts/feelings. If your new character has ANY direct/indirect connection to your old character, you MUST state that in your new character history write up for Admin & Village approvals. All Medical or ANBU related experience should be reflected in your history along with CA or BL influence.
  • Editing Your New Character Application = Do not edit a post you have made in your OCR. You must copy all of your information from your last post and add the changes to the new post. This is for papertrail reasons.

Things that do NOT transfer with your next character:
Please take notice of which ASP shop items that you have bought transfer with your character, and which do not.

Character's Physical Description:
Jien is a tall lad with a average frame and toned muscles. He has short messy white hair, almost curling along the ends of the fringes. He once had vibrant purple colored eyes when he was a child, but has now turned darker almost greyish in color. He has a natural tan complexion. He is usually seen wearing his bluish-grey parka over a black undershirt, with white pants combat shoes. A circular amulet would always hang around his neck. This can be considered as his field and mission clothes, with the metal plate of Kumogakure located on the buckle of his belt. His other choice of wardrobe is a white button-up dress shirt and a pair of black pants and boots. On this, he uses the amulet as a necktie of sorts, and is mostly when he needs to attend in some formal gathering.

Character's Mental Description:
As a person… Jien can be laid-back. He is very much grounded to reality that he is more of a realist than an optimist. In fact, he may come out rude or pessimistic so long as he shows the blunt reality that is before him. But that is only when he speaks his mind. He isn’t someone who like to rub his own thoughts into others, nor someone who wants to gossip. He can be observant, but he doesn’t take it upon himself to act on it unless necessary. If asked how he would define himself, Jien would, no doubt, answer that he is just an ordinary man trying to get by one day at a time.

As a shinobi… Jien is perceptive but follows the directive more than anything else. He has been trained since he was young about the harsh realities of the world, and of the sufferings needed. Consequences are treated as part of the job, and so he must always focus on getting the job done with an objective mind. Over the years, over many scars and near death experiences, Jien has long abandoned inhibitions. He has hardened himself to the point of breathing life and death together, of seeing and tasting blood, of ignoring the pains and merciless fighting style. He believes that only those who are quick and determined can ever achieve anything, as such, he prides himself with his marksmanship– an ability he honed for years and never once failed him.

As a foreigner in service of a foreign land… Jien has never shied away from admitting that he wasn’t born in Lightning Country, though he would often escape further questions. Somehow, there’s a strange determination in him to become a valuable asset to Kumogakure. At one point, he exclaimed how he was fascinated and in awe about the organised structure, particularly with the power and responsibilities that the known Sennins and the Raikage had. Because of this, he is quite eager to prove his mettle to become part of the Kumogakure system.

As an okonomiyaki lover… Jien doesn’t shy away from spending his money to eat okonomiyaki everyday. In fact, if given the opportunity, he’d eat it all his life. Nothing could ever separate him from this one true love of his, lest they who dare are willing to earn his ire.

Character History:
Origin & CA: Hawkeye
As far as Jien could remember, he had always held a gun. Whether it was for self-defense or for assault, the smell of gunpowder had always been a familiar fume, and the recoil on his arm was the perfect tension to know that he was alive. He was an orphan in the streets of the underground slums of Earth Country, knowing only to fend for himself lest he be the victim of others. As such, he would eventually meet a certain gang that roamed around his vicinity and eventually would be taken in by them. Life growing with them was harsh but also full of adventure. If he could get past their abuses and insults, he actually learned a lot from them, especially the use of a gun. His first kill was when he was 7 and ever since he was constantly made use by the gang for their own survival. After all, while Arcadia, the lost capital of the underground world, was known to having rich miners, there were also those who were cast with misfortune. As such, the envy of those who have nothing led to many gangs that would try to accumulate their own wealth.

It was only a decade later when he would meet some people from the surface, one being a shinobi from Konohagakure on an observation mission. Their encounter was not one of friendship. A particular robbery that their gang had planned would be stopped by this shinobi, by coincidence, and though the encounter was rough and almost led to his untimely death, Jien was give a choice to properly make use of his talent elsewhere. Of course, while the thought of becoming a shinobi did seem a bit attractive to him, Jien refused the Konoha shinobi and escaped on his own. With the untimely disbanding of their gang, it was the first time that Jien found a strange emptiness, almost as if he didn’t have a goal in sight.

One last robbery got him entangled with a visiting nobleman, whom he would deceive into hiring him as bodyguard. He had only planned to steal this man’s wealth and possession, but as he played along, he eventually found himself brought out into the surface. For the first time, Jien breathed the fresh air and saw the endless sky. Eventually, he forgot the thought of stealing from this nobleman as he agreed to continue to work for him, even gaining new skills and being taught of various things. This nobleman would eventually adopt him, confessing that he knew of Jien’s real plans but took pity on him since he reminded him of his lost daughter, his face resembling hers. As such, for a few years, Jien would live a normal life, being taught the rudiments of language, history and even their family’s business and trade.

But Jien wasn’t one to be tied down that easily. He had lived most of his life in a completely opposite way– one of danger, death, and battles– that a normal life was seemingly impossible. So he made use of the family’s influence to find means to train further. Some of their clients would be accompanied by warriors, soldiers, or even shinobis, that Jien would make use of their time to try and learn from them. Eventually, he would find a master marksman who took an interest to his own inclination of the gun, and because this traveling vagabond didn’t have anywhere else to live, he was allowed to personally train Jien in the nobleman’s estate and live there.

Even then, the heart of a vagabond grew tired of a stale life and decided to leave one day, leaving behind a note for Jien. In it would be the beginning of the lifelong journey of the young lad. His final lesson from the master marksman was, apparently, to find him and duel with him one day. It was a daunting task, considering that he knew well that the words meant that it would be a duel to the death, thus, Jien knew he needed to prepare himself for what could be the ultimate battle of his life. And he could only to do without anything else to hold him back. Because of it, he would bid farewell to the kind nobleman before disappearing for good.

In his travel to train and search for any clues of where his master went, Jien would eventually reach Lightning Country. There, he would learn from some of the villages about Kumogakure. While he was not interested at first, he soon came to understand that Kumogakure was one of the prime shinobi villages in the land, and no doubt their intelligence division would become useful. More importantly, he came to understand, from few of the testimonies of the people he met, that Kumogakure had a long history of strong warriors, commendable shinobis, and esteemed branches that make a difference on a world stage. How much of that was true, he wasn’t certain, but somehow it made Jien remember of that group he once met in Arcadia.

Once, he had somehow dreamt of being free and being able to do what he wanted, back when he was trapped in the gang. It was then when their gang had a run-in with the Kagerenmei, a group who believed in “peace by all means”, who protected the denizens, and whom Jien first felt gratitude to. However, what remains of that group was now just a pile of rocks, ruins, and gravestones. He was still young back then that he couldn’t have understood the gravity of their actions, but Jien knew that they were good, and he once aspired to become part of them.

Perhaps, that dream is not yet completely lost– he thought, as he makes a decision to go to Kumogakure and see if this would change his life. And perhaps, he’ll eventually grow stronger into someone worthy to fight his master one day.

Thus, for the last seven years, Jien has lived in Kumogakure. He trained, worked, and learned to become better, and to become part of a system that he truly believed he could find himself being proud of– Kumogakure. And while becoming a shinobi may not have been a priority in his mind when he was a child, it was now evidently part of who he was. But unlike others that relied on their ninjutsu and illusions and such, Jien had furthered his ability with the gun and rifle. To complement it, he knew taking up different tactics and a suitable hunting partner would be to his advantage, and hopeful would make him a valuable asset to the village.
Kinjutsu: Chimera (reflavored) + CA: Reckless
The crack of lightning in the sky lights up the dark world, and in that split second, Jien saw the reflection of light against the blade that was hovering just above his head. In the dark of night, the enemy had gotten confident to conceal himself within the shadows to create this opportunity. However much he may have wanted to cut down the white-haired warrior, Jien was far from being a sitting duck. As light reflects against his own grey eyes, Jien pulled his hands close towards him and then pivoted on his back foot, entering into a sudden turn to avoid the swinging arc of the blade. A whistle comes in the wake of the completed swing of nothing but air. And in retaliation, Jien completes his turn to face the enemy once more, bring with him the momentum of his step-back and lunge, as he catch the attacker’s sword arm in his closer arm, wrapping along the elbow, and then pulling the enemy close for the cold steel of his handgun to touch the man’s head. Smoke fades into the night air as the echo dies into the distance. Jien picks up the blade from the still body and firmly holds on the handle, testing the weight for a good long moment.

In that instance, a memory surfaces into his mind. Some years back as he was surviving in the underground capital of Earth Country, the Arcadia, his ways of surviving with the gangs had been his introduction to this violent world. Blood was life… scent… and death. It was the constant stint that dwelled in the less than stellar neighbourhood, far from where the rich men and those who struck gold with the mining industry had lived. In this far-reaching neighbourhood, it was almost as if the underground had robbed them of every bit of light. Not even the gems that stuck out from the walls could have been seen as a light, for they merely lay witness to the bloodshed that occurred in those streets. Far from the prying eyes of the righteous– in a world where Jien learned the worth of each bullet he shot– the young warrior would be taught how deadly the blade could be.

It was during one of their gang wars, when they would expand their territory thus crushing the nearby gangs who thought otherwise, that he would witness one of their own easily cut up another. It was terrifying to watch, especially for a child, as blood sprayed to the ground and the walls, a scream so shrill turning deadly silent before the drop of the body. The image would burn itself into the eyes of the members, but for Jien, his eyes were fixated on the blade that their leader held. It dripped of the crimson liquid yet it was still. He could tell there was power in it, yet the power was unstable, almost seemingly reaching out to him. But he stay away from it.

When he a bit older, turning just ten over the few the weeks, he would finally get a taste of handling the blade. The leader expected him to follow him to the very end, and as such, a new skill set was required. Though he was still quite devoted to his instinct that valued the gun that pretty much his weapon of choice, he was a quick learner with the blade. He didn’t like the large swords, rather, he kept with the daggers, the medium-length, and somethings the curved ones. For a boy who was rather average in build, almost underweight to be honest, his hands held the blade’s hilt firmly and each of his strikes were had a purpose, even if it seemed like a reckless dance. A few times he cut himself, but those few times, he never complained. A few times he got cut when he fought another, and still, he never complained.

“You’re creepy,” one of the members said one day, right when they had just finished another turf war. Some of them were returning to their base with cuts and bruises, while others with severed limbs or left behind dead. Jien had a few long cuts on his chest and legs that his blood would pool whenever he stopped to rest. He would take in a long deep breath to relax his muscles and repeat the words in his head: “do not give up.” And so, he would simply smile at those condescending words of his ally, wiping blood off his bruised face and walk on. Nothing would stop him but himself– he thought, and so, as long as he never thought of his death, he would have nothing to fear.

Some of the scars around his body were because he never saw the need to avoid getting wounded, often getting called reckless by his allies. But there was something stimulating about the act of bleeding that made him feel much more alive. It was almost as if each drawing of his blood made his muscles burn and his heart roar. And so, he would prove that he would be a devastating enemy to the other gangs. A gun in one hand and a short sword in the other, he walked with a trail of blood, both his and his enemies.

Once, he almost died from it all, and it was when he learned how it felt to be an asset. He was saved by the gang leader and he would be nursed to health before he would return to the field. Throughout that time, while others pressed on for him to rethink about the value of life, there was just nothing that could seem to make him fear death. “I bleed because I’m alive. Isn’t that enough?” he once asked one of the concerned allies before he would pick up his gun and dagger to prepare for another stand against in a turf war.

At present, Jien grins at the thought of the memory. Indeed, it has been long since he felt the handle of a blade against his calloused hand that only held guns for so long. And it didn’t seem so bad to do so again. Brandishing the blade overhead before settling it to his side, Jien would look up ahead of him to spot a few more of the gathered assailants that thought it was wise to track him in the alleyway and kill him off. That was probably their mistake in this hunt, for he was the hunter and never the prey.

Thus, relishing in the atmosphere, blade in hand, memories resurfacing of every instance, every experience of the sword, and his grin turns into a flat expression. A silent showdown eclipses at the howl of the night breeze, sending Jien dashing without hesitation. The narrow alleyway would not have been ideal, but only for the uninitiated. He was not.

At the reaction of the assailants, Jien leapt off the ground and onto the wall before kicking off to a twist overhead as he dodges their initial strikes. His body moves like instincts possessed him, especially when memories have been selected for this particular action. Then, he spins a slashing swing before shifting the blade as he kicks off from the other wall. Dodge, attack, dodge, attack. Slide away from the reach of the enemy’s blade then counter with his own. Just then, something struck him from behind as he makes for a wide dodge. A hand goes over and he grabs hold of the cold steel before pulling out and throwing it above. More have appeared on the rooftops of the alleyway, seemingly eager to chuck their kunais at him.

He clicked his tongue as he touched the ground, leaving only a few moments to readjust himself before a powerful kick to the ground jumpstarts him towards the assailants with a final slash to kill the one on the ground with him. In his speed, he avoids the next slew of projectiles before he jumps and scales the wall while shifting his other hand to reload his handgun. Then, as he reached the top, he jumped over the hidden attacking assailant, barely missing the broad swing. With deft grace and acrobatic precision, he places the end of the barrel against the man’s head from behind and pulls the trigger, before dropping down to use the now dead assailant as a shield from the incoming kunais of the others. Then, he would rush out and start shooting with precision and speed, getting closer and closer.

One. Two. Three. They drop like rag dolls into the alleyway until Jien slices the last one before a heated stamp of a bullet kisses the center of his head. The impact was enough to throw him off the ledge and straight into the canal on the other side of the alley. From there, Kiri looks on as he counts the bodies. Just like in the report, everyone was accounted for. He nodded as if he was satisfied and then he throws the blade out into the canal waters, before placing his gun back to is holster hidden underneath his coat-jacket.

As he begins to walk away, he realises that he was injured. A short sting on his back makes him remember the kunai that was lucky enough to lodge itself on him. He sighs in frustration before shrugging. He didn’t really want to bother much of it and it’s not like he was going to die from it. There wasn’t any feeling of poison either, so he continued to walk, hoping he could get back to the room he rented in that town so he could have a nice long warm bath.

It was after that mission when he realised that something was changing in him. Jien could feel that it yet he couldn’t put a word to it. Everything was just so natural to him that it was nothing to think about. But perhaps it was because it made things feels so natural and so familiar to him that something was, in fact, causing it. Like the way he held a knife that instantly summoned memories of the way to slash and let go all of his inhibitions. Or the way he believed that he could not imagine a day without touching his precious guns. Or the way he was perceiving others, especially in the training grounds. The coliseum was giving him a hard time lately, for as he trained, his perception easily catches details he would have ignored in the past. Lately, he was remembering everything to the very last detail, of the trainee’s weight, their footwork, their handling prowess and their breathing. He was remembering a technique even as he only seen it once. And he was recreating it perfectly, almost like mirror imagery. It was interesting, almost mysterious, that he couldn’t quite pinpoint what made him so, but he would capitalise on this new phenomena he was experiencing, and so often he would make time for the coliseum to observe and simply learn. Was it like the so-called famous Sharingan? Maybe, who knows, but it wasn’t about copying, it was also about living through it.


One night, Jien was visited by a dream he never once had. It was almost as he if lost himself into the memory of the dream– standing in the courtyard of the nobleman’s mansion, hand pressed on the handle of the gun he possessed. He was a child, once again, and he didn’t seem at all mad about it. In fact, there was a bubbling urge within him that wanted resurface, a strange kind of excitement that could only be explained by that single moment in his life. He was meeting his mentor for the day and he couldn’t help but be excited about it.

Looking to his left, he caught sight his mentor in the distance, walking into the woods. With a big wide smile, Jien ran off to follow. Strange how the concept of the marksman mentor had always been an inspiring urge within his heart and yet the silhouette in his memories was always of a man. But in this dream, she was clearly different. Long dark hair with a feather hairpin, some markings on her face, and a motherly smile. She looked at him with expectant eyes and embraced him before they began their routine training in the woods. There, he would witness her marksmanship unrivalled by any other. It would just be another day in his life, only this time, he would not have to worry about using his gun to kill in order to survive.

However, as they were finishing, with the sun going down over the horizon, something felt amis. She would stop on her tracks and place a hand on his head, saying, “Jien, you’re a very talented child. It’s really sad to think you had to live a life that way until now. I wish there was so much more you could have experienced. Promise me that one day you’ll find me and show me all that you’ve learned.”

It was a peculiar promise, almost as if she was leaving him for good. “Why? Are you going somewhere?” asked Jien, remember the exact words that unfolded that day.

“I’m a nomad. I don’t stay for long in one place. And you’ve been a good student. I’ve met a lot in my lifetime, but never one like you. You are almost like my child, but I know I can’t be selfish. You have a whole life ahead of you. That’s why, even if it’s a little bit, I want to help you make the most of it, to grow stronger and achieve the fullest of your potential.”

At those words, Jien felt something surround him and a shimmer of a bright light on her hand on his head. It was brief so he thought it was merely the sunset’s rays shining through the openings between the canopies, often than not brightly shining her figure. Like the rays of hope. But now that he looked back to this memory, it was highly suspicious, especially with the words she left him after that.

“One day, you’ll come to remember things you would not think of remembering. One day, you’ll experience what you have seen. When that time comes, you’ll find yourself moving to the ways of the natural world, dancing to the tune of the memories. When you remember, let go of your fears and allow yourself to grow further. Only then will you realise that there is more to master, more reason to train, and that perfection is but a myth,” she spoke almost like a chant before he let go of his head. Then, she would give him her prized possession of two handguns. These were the ones that she said she had personally crafted from a famous artisan in a land to the north. “My gift… This might become problematic, and I hope you will not abuse it to the point of endangering yourself. But I do believe you have the right sense of judgment. You’re still young but already, you’ve seen so much. That’s why, when you do use this, please remember everything. So that you will not fall into the traps of men. People forget once they gain power, but memories are more powerful than anything else.”

“What are you saying? I don’t understand,” said the child Jien with a raised brow. She merely laughed and then urged them both to return to the mansion.

“Don’t worry. One day you’ll understand.”

Waking up from the dream, Jien couldn’t quite figure out if it left him with a cold sweat or that his body was burning with fear that he was getting all sentimental and remembering the past. But he did come to a sit on his mattress and leaned against the headboard, eyes searching the simple room he owned in Kumogakure. Only a small light would shine through the window and he loved the ambiance it created, like a serene soft atmosphere to call his own. Glancing to the sidetable, his prized handguns, the one given by his mentor lay still.

“Memories are powerful, huh? I suppose this is part of what’s happening,” he said with a sigh as he ran a hand through his hair, only to stop as he remembered that brief moment of a flash of light when his mentor placed her hand on his head while he was young. “Is this the gift you said? Are you challenging me to learn as many and transform the memories into something only I can wield? If so… thank you.” He went back to sleep soon after, with a content smile on his face.

The next day, he was more than eager to put the theory to the test as he listed himself for a good long day of training in the coliseum. With one sword in one hand, and a gun another, he found himself in a standstill, in a world of memories playing before him, where he could select, he could rethink, and his body would just follow the rhythm it sang. Thus, the more he fought, the more he observed, the better he got. Though by the end of the day, he always got scolded about his recklessness. He always earned a few more cuts, a few more bruises, but that didn’t deter him. If anything, he felt all the more needy for something to push himself.

“Heh? It’s just a scratch,” he would then say, not bothered by the scent of his own blood, “No pain, no gain, right? Besides, unless I bleed, I wouldn’t know if I’m truly living. So if I’m still getting wounded, it just means I need to keep getting better. I just need to make… more memories to activate.”

What is Limbo Training?
This is the training that you would have gotten if you did not move on to your new character's life. Your caps are determined by your rebirthed stats. You must keep a record of your stats gained during limbo in your OCR thread. You may NOT request for an automatic rank up should you find that your new stats allow you to upgrade. Limbo training is only for people who have died in modded combat or suicide. Anyone whose character has not died is still capable of RPing that character until their OCR is finalized, and thus can train as normal.


Things you do NOT need to state, but take note of:
  • Abilities = All of your Abilities are auto-untrained upon rebirth. In order to have any Abilities for your new character, you must activate them by posting in your character’s Dojo topic in your new village.
  • Character History = By suiciding/rebirthing, you're making a new character. This means your new character must not know or remember anything of your old character's life/thoughts/feelings. If your new character has ANY direct/indirect connection to your old character, you MUST state that in your new character history write up for Admin & Village approvals. All Medical or ANBU related experience should be reflected in your history along with CA or BL influence.
  • Editing Your New Character Application = Do not edit a post you have made in your OCR. You must copy all of your information from your last post and add the changes to the new post. This is for papertrail reasons.

Things that do NOT transfer with your next character:
Please take notice of which ASP shop items that you have bought transfer with your character, and which do not.

(yen has NOT been moderated yet)

Rechecking, Kiri is actually swapping to 13 A-Ranks instead of 14

so it should be this:

refund:
5 e-rank 5Ma = 2250 - 30asp
6 D-rank 5Ma = 7200 - 40asp
9 c-rank 8Ma = 29250 - 80asp
9 B-rank 5Ma = 67500 - 60asp
14 A-ranks 8Ma = 175000 - 120asp
= 281200 and 330asp

'swapping' to
2 e-rank 2Ma = 900 and 12asp
3 d-rank 3Ma = 3600 and 24asp
10 C-rank 10Ma = 32500 and 100asp
11 B rank 11Ma = 82500 and 132asp
13 A-ranks 13 Ma = 162500 and 195asp
= 282000 and 478asp

Yen Cost: 282000(Spent) - 281200(Refunded) = 800 Yen
ASP Cost: 478(Spent) - 330(Refunded) = 148 ASP

(Yen still not moderated)
------------------------------------

Appearance & Personality & History & CA & Kinjutsu & 2nd CA all look good.

I guess Lightning is your free Major and Earth your free Minor, so those look good.

Class still doesn't have your class bonus, since you have the 2 class points to spend besides the 6 point kinjutsu option due to your +2 Class Points ASP item, if you're looking to add that.

And you're not wanting to spend ASP to get keep your contract, or get a new one?

If you're not looking to do anything about the contract stuff, and the last two points of your class are figured out, then we can finish this up.

Character's Physical Description:
Jien is a tall lad with a average frame and toned muscles. He has short messy white hair, almost curling along the ends of the fringes. He once had vibrant purple colored eyes when he was a child, but has now turned darker almost greyish in color. He has a natural tan complexion. He is usually seen wearing his bluish-grey parka over a black undershirt, with white pants combat shoes. A circular amulet would always hang around his neck. This can be considered as his field and mission clothes, with the metal plate of Kumogakure located on the buckle of his belt. His other choice of wardrobe is a white button-up dress shirt and a pair of black pants and boots. On this, he uses the amulet as a necktie of sorts, and is mostly when he needs to attend in some formal gathering.

Character's Mental Description:
As a person… Jien can be laid-back. He is very much grounded to reality that he is more of a realist than an optimist. In fact, he may come out rude or pessimistic so long as he shows the blunt reality that is before him. But that is only when he speaks his mind. He isn’t someone who like to rub his own thoughts into others, nor someone who wants to gossip. He can be observant, but he doesn’t take it upon himself to act on it unless necessary. If asked how he would define himself, Jien would, no doubt, answer that he is just an ordinary man trying to get by one day at a time.

As a shinobi… Jien is perceptive but follows the directive more than anything else. He has been trained since he was young about the harsh realities of the world, and of the sufferings needed. Consequences are treated as part of the job, and so he must always focus on getting the job done with an objective mind. Over the years, over many scars and near death experiences, Jien has long abandoned inhibitions. He has hardened himself to the point of breathing life and death together, of seeing and tasting blood, of ignoring the pains and merciless fighting style. He believes that only those who are quick and determined can ever achieve anything, as such, he prides himself with his marksmanship– an ability he honed for years and never once failed him.

As a foreigner in service of a foreign land… Jien has never shied away from admitting that he wasn’t born in Lightning Country, though he would often escape further questions. Somehow, there’s a strange determination in him to become a valuable asset to Kumogakure. At one point, he exclaimed how he was fascinated and in awe about the organised structure, particularly with the power and responsibilities that the known Sennins and the Raikage had. Because of this, he is quite eager to prove his mettle to become part of the Kumogakure system.

As an okonomiyaki lover… Jien doesn’t shy away from spending his money to eat okonomiyaki everyday. In fact, if given the opportunity, he’d eat it all his life. Nothing could ever separate him from this one true love of his, lest they who dare are willing to earn his ire.

Multiple Personality Application: n/a

Character History:
Origin & CA: Hawkeye
As far as Jien could remember, he had always held a gun. Whether it was for self-defense or for assault, the smell of gunpowder had always been a familiar fume, and the recoil on his arm was the perfect tension to know that he was alive. He was an orphan in the streets of the underground slums of Earth Country, knowing only to fend for himself lest he be the victim of others. As such, he would eventually meet a certain gang that roamed around his vicinity and eventually would be taken in by them. Life growing with them was harsh but also full of adventure. If he could get past their abuses and insults, he actually learned a lot from them, especially the use of a gun. His first kill was when he was 7 and ever since he was constantly made use by the gang for their own survival. After all, while Arcadia, the lost capital of the underground world, was known to having rich miners, there were also those who were cast with misfortune. As such, the envy of those who have nothing led to many gangs that would try to accumulate their own wealth.

It was only a decade later when he would meet some people from the surface, one being a shinobi from Konohagakure on an observation mission. Their encounter was not one of friendship. A particular robbery that their gang had planned would be stopped by this shinobi, by coincidence, and though the encounter was rough and almost led to his untimely death, Jien was give a choice to properly make use of his talent elsewhere. Of course, while the thought of becoming a shinobi did seem a bit attractive to him, Jien refused the Konoha shinobi and escaped on his own. With the untimely disbanding of their gang, it was the first time that Jien found a strange emptiness, almost as if he didn’t have a goal in sight.

One last robbery got him entangled with a visiting nobleman, whom he would deceive into hiring him as bodyguard. He had only planned to steal this man’s wealth and possession, but as he played along, he eventually found himself brought out into the surface. For the first time, Jien breathed the fresh air and saw the endless sky. Eventually, he forgot the thought of stealing from this nobleman as he agreed to continue to work for him, even gaining new skills and being taught of various things. This nobleman would eventually adopt him, confessing that he knew of Jien’s real plans but took pity on him since he reminded him of his lost daughter, his face resembling hers. As such, for a few years, Jien would live a normal life, being taught the rudiments of language, history and even their family’s business and trade.

But Jien wasn’t one to be tied down that easily. He had lived most of his life in a completely opposite way– one of danger, death, and battles– that a normal life was seemingly impossible. So he made use of the family’s influence to find means to train further. Some of their clients would be accompanied by warriors, soldiers, or even shinobis, that Jien would make use of their time to try and learn from them. Eventually, he would find a master marksman who took an interest to his own inclination of the gun, and because this traveling vagabond didn’t have anywhere else to live, he was allowed to personally train Jien in the nobleman’s estate and live there.

Even then, the heart of a vagabond grew tired of a stale life and decided to leave one day, leaving behind a note for Jien. In it would be the beginning of the lifelong journey of the young lad. His final lesson from the master marksman was, apparently, to find him and duel with him one day. It was a daunting task, considering that he knew well that the words meant that it would be a duel to the death, thus, Jien knew he needed to prepare himself for what could be the ultimate battle of his life. And he could only to do without anything else to hold him back. Because of it, he would bid farewell to the kind nobleman before disappearing for good.

In his travel to train and search for any clues of where his master went, Jien would eventually reach Lightning Country. There, he would learn from some of the villages about Kumogakure. While he was not interested at first, he soon came to understand that Kumogakure was one of the prime shinobi villages in the land, and no doubt their intelligence division would become useful. More importantly, he came to understand, from few of the testimonies of the people he met, that Kumogakure had a long history of strong warriors, commendable shinobis, and esteemed branches that make a difference on a world stage. How much of that was true, he wasn’t certain, but somehow it made Jien remember of that group he once met in Arcadia.

Once, he had somehow dreamt of being free and being able to do what he wanted, back when he was trapped in the gang. It was then when their gang had a run-in with the Kagerenmei, a group who believed in “peace by all means”, who protected the denizens, and whom Jien first felt gratitude to. However, what remains of that group was now just a pile of rocks, ruins, and gravestones. He was still young back then that he couldn’t have understood the gravity of their actions, but Jien knew that they were good, and he once aspired to become part of them.

Perhaps, that dream is not yet completely lost– he thought, as he makes a decision to go to Kumogakure and see if this would change his life. And perhaps, he’ll eventually grow stronger into someone worthy to fight his master one day.

Thus, for the last seven years, Jien has lived in Kumogakure. He trained, worked, and learned to become better, and to become part of a system that he truly believed he could find himself being proud of– Kumogakure. And while becoming a shinobi may not have been a priority in his mind when he was a child, it was now evidently part of who he was. But unlike others that relied on their ninjutsu and illusions and such, Jien had furthered his ability with the gun and rifle. To complement it, he knew taking up different tactics and a suitable hunting partner would be to his advantage, and hopeful would make him a valuable asset to the village.
Kinjutsu: Chimera (reflavored) + CA: Reckless
The crack of lightning in the sky lights up the dark world, and in that split second, Jien saw the reflection of light against the blade that was hovering just above his head. In the dark of night, the enemy had gotten confident to conceal himself within the shadows to create this opportunity. However much he may have wanted to cut down the white-haired warrior, Jien was far from being a sitting duck. As light reflects against his own grey eyes, Jien pulled his hands close towards him and then pivoted on his back foot, entering into a sudden turn to avoid the swinging arc of the blade. A whistle comes in the wake of the completed swing of nothing but air. And in retaliation, Jien completes his turn to face the enemy once more, bring with him the momentum of his step-back and lunge, as he catch the attacker’s sword arm in his closer arm, wrapping along the elbow, and then pulling the enemy close for the cold steel of his handgun to touch the man’s head. Smoke fades into the night air as the echo dies into the distance. Jien picks up the blade from the still body and firmly holds on the handle, testing the weight for a good long moment.

In that instance, a memory surfaces into his mind. Some years back as he was surviving in the underground capital of Earth Country, the Arcadia, his ways of surviving with the gangs had been his introduction to this violent world. Blood was life… scent… and death. It was the constant stint that dwelled in the less than stellar neighbourhood, far from where the rich men and those who struck gold with the mining industry had lived. In this far-reaching neighbourhood, it was almost as if the underground had robbed them of every bit of light. Not even the gems that stuck out from the walls could have been seen as a light, for they merely lay witness to the bloodshed that occurred in those streets. Far from the prying eyes of the righteous– in a world where Jien learned the worth of each bullet he shot– the young warrior would be taught how deadly the blade could be.

It was during one of their gang wars, when they would expand their territory thus crushing the nearby gangs who thought otherwise, that he would witness one of their own easily cut up another. It was terrifying to watch, especially for a child, as blood sprayed to the ground and the walls, a scream so shrill turning deadly silent before the drop of the body. The image would burn itself into the eyes of the members, but for Jien, his eyes were fixated on the blade that their leader held. It dripped of the crimson liquid yet it was still. He could tell there was power in it, yet the power was unstable, almost seemingly reaching out to him. But he stay away from it.

When he a bit older, turning just ten over the few the weeks, he would finally get a taste of handling the blade. The leader expected him to follow him to the very end, and as such, a new skill set was required. Though he was still quite devoted to his instinct that valued the gun that pretty much his weapon of choice, he was a quick learner with the blade. He didn’t like the large swords, rather, he kept with the daggers, the medium-length, and somethings the curved ones. For a boy who was rather average in build, almost underweight to be honest, his hands held the blade’s hilt firmly and each of his strikes were had a purpose, even if it seemed like a reckless dance. A few times he cut himself, but those few times, he never complained. A few times he got cut when he fought another, and still, he never complained.

“You’re creepy,” one of the members said one day, right when they had just finished another turf war. Some of them were returning to their base with cuts and bruises, while others with severed limbs or left behind dead. Jien had a few long cuts on his chest and legs that his blood would pool whenever he stopped to rest. He would take in a long deep breath to relax his muscles and repeat the words in his head: “do not give up.” And so, he would simply smile at those condescending words of his ally, wiping blood off his bruised face and walk on. Nothing would stop him but himself– he thought, and so, as long as he never thought of his death, he would have nothing to fear.

Some of the scars around his body were because he never saw the need to avoid getting wounded, often getting called reckless by his allies. But there was something stimulating about the act of bleeding that made him feel much more alive. It was almost as if each drawing of his blood made his muscles burn and his heart roar. And so, he would prove that he would be a devastating enemy to the other gangs. A gun in one hand and a short sword in the other, he walked with a trail of blood, both his and his enemies.

Once, he almost died from it all, and it was when he learned how it felt to be an asset. He was saved by the gang leader and he would be nursed to health before he would return to the field. Throughout that time, while others pressed on for him to rethink about the value of life, there was just nothing that could seem to make him fear death. “I bleed because I’m alive. Isn’t that enough?” he once asked one of the concerned allies before he would pick up his gun and dagger to prepare for another stand against in a turf war.

At present, Jien grins at the thought of the memory. Indeed, it has been long since he felt the handle of a blade against his calloused hand that only held guns for so long. And it didn’t seem so bad to do so again. Brandishing the blade overhead before settling it to his side, Jien would look up ahead of him to spot a few more of the gathered assailants that thought it was wise to track him in the alleyway and kill him off. That was probably their mistake in this hunt, for he was the hunter and never the prey.

Thus, relishing in the atmosphere, blade in hand, memories resurfacing of every instance, every experience of the sword, and his grin turns into a flat expression. A silent showdown eclipses at the howl of the night breeze, sending Jien dashing without hesitation. The narrow alleyway would not have been ideal, but only for the uninitiated. He was not.

At the reaction of the assailants, Jien leapt off the ground and onto the wall before kicking off to a twist overhead as he dodges their initial strikes. His body moves like instincts possessed him, especially when memories have been selected for this particular action. Then, he spins a slashing swing before shifting the blade as he kicks off from the other wall. Dodge, attack, dodge, attack. Slide away from the reach of the enemy’s blade then counter with his own. Just then, something struck him from behind as he makes for a wide dodge. A hand goes over and he grabs hold of the cold steel before pulling out and throwing it above. More have appeared on the rooftops of the alleyway, seemingly eager to chuck their kunais at him.

He clicked his tongue as he touched the ground, leaving only a few moments to readjust himself before a powerful kick to the ground jumpstarts him towards the assailants with a final slash to kill the one on the ground with him. In his speed, he avoids the next slew of projectiles before he jumps and scales the wall while shifting his other hand to reload his handgun. Then, as he reached the top, he jumped over the hidden attacking assailant, barely missing the broad swing. With deft grace and acrobatic precision, he places the end of the barrel against the man’s head from behind and pulls the trigger, before dropping down to use the now dead assailant as a shield from the incoming kunais of the others. Then, he would rush out and start shooting with precision and speed, getting closer and closer.

One. Two. Three. They drop like rag dolls into the alleyway until Jien slices the last one before a heated stamp of a bullet kisses the center of his head. The impact was enough to throw him off the ledge and straight into the canal on the other side of the alley. From there, Kiri looks on as he counts the bodies. Just like in the report, everyone was accounted for. He nodded as if he was satisfied and then he throws the blade out into the canal waters, before placing his gun back to is holster hidden underneath his coat-jacket.

As he begins to walk away, he realises that he was injured. A short sting on his back makes him remember the kunai that was lucky enough to lodge itself on him. He sighs in frustration before shrugging. He didn’t really want to bother much of it and it’s not like he was going to die from it. There wasn’t any feeling of poison either, so he continued to walk, hoping he could get back to the room he rented in that town so he could have a nice long warm bath.

It was after that mission when he realised that something was changing in him. Jien could feel that it yet he couldn’t put a word to it. Everything was just so natural to him that it was nothing to think about. But perhaps it was because it made things feels so natural and so familiar to him that something was, in fact, causing it. Like the way he held a knife that instantly summoned memories of the way to slash and let go all of his inhibitions. Or the way he believed that he could not imagine a day without touching his precious guns. Or the way he was perceiving others, especially in the training grounds. The coliseum was giving him a hard time lately, for as he trained, his perception easily catches details he would have ignored in the past. Lately, he was remembering everything to the very last detail, of the trainee’s weight, their footwork, their handling prowess and their breathing. He was remembering a technique even as he only seen it once. And he was recreating it perfectly, almost like mirror imagery. It was interesting, almost mysterious, that he couldn’t quite pinpoint what made him so, but he would capitalise on this new phenomena he was experiencing, and so often he would make time for the coliseum to observe and simply learn. Was it like the so-called famous Sharingan? Maybe, who knows, but it wasn’t about copying, it was also about living through it.


One night, Jien was visited by a dream he never once had. It was almost as he if lost himself into the memory of the dream– standing in the courtyard of the nobleman’s mansion, hand pressed on the handle of the gun he possessed. He was a child, once again, and he didn’t seem at all mad about it. In fact, there was a bubbling urge within him that wanted resurface, a strange kind of excitement that could only be explained by that single moment in his life. He was meeting his mentor for the day and he couldn’t help but be excited about it.

Looking to his left, he caught sight his mentor in the distance, walking into the woods. With a big wide smile, Jien ran off to follow. Strange how the concept of the marksman mentor had always been an inspiring urge within his heart and yet the silhouette in his memories was always of a man. But in this dream, she was clearly different. Long dark hair with a feather hairpin, some markings on her face, and a motherly smile. She looked at him with expectant eyes and embraced him before they began their routine training in the woods. There, he would witness her marksmanship unrivalled by any other. It would just be another day in his life, only this time, he would not have to worry about using his gun to kill in order to survive.

However, as they were finishing, with the sun going down over the horizon, something felt amis. She would stop on her tracks and place a hand on his head, saying, “Jien, you’re a very talented child. It’s really sad to think you had to live a life that way until now. I wish there was so much more you could have experienced. Promise me that one day you’ll find me and show me all that you’ve learned.”

It was a peculiar promise, almost as if she was leaving him for good. “Why? Are you going somewhere?” asked Jien, remember the exact words that unfolded that day.

“I’m a nomad. I don’t stay for long in one place. And you’ve been a good student. I’ve met a lot in my lifetime, but never one like you. You are almost like my child, but I know I can’t be selfish. You have a whole life ahead of you. That’s why, even if it’s a little bit, I want to help you make the most of it, to grow stronger and achieve the fullest of your potential.”

At those words, Jien felt something surround him and a shimmer of a bright light on her hand on his head. It was brief so he thought it was merely the sunset’s rays shining through the openings between the canopies, often than not brightly shining her figure. Like the rays of hope. But now that he looked back to this memory, it was highly suspicious, especially with the words she left him after that.

“One day, you’ll come to remember things you would not think of remembering. One day, you’ll experience what you have seen. When that time comes, you’ll find yourself moving to the ways of the natural world, dancing to the tune of the memories. When you remember, let go of your fears and allow yourself to grow further. Only then will you realise that there is more to master, more reason to train, and that perfection is but a myth,” she spoke almost like a chant before he let go of his head. Then, she would give him her prized possession of two handguns. These were the ones that she said she had personally crafted from a famous artisan in a land to the north. “My gift… This might become problematic, and I hope you will not abuse it to the point of endangering yourself. But I do believe you have the right sense of judgment. You’re still young but already, you’ve seen so much. That’s why, when you do use this, please remember everything. So that you will not fall into the traps of men. People forget once they gain power, but memories are more powerful than anything else.”

“What are you saying? I don’t understand,” said the child Jien with a raised brow. She merely laughed and then urged them both to return to the mansion.

“Don’t worry. One day you’ll understand.”

Waking up from the dream, Jien couldn’t quite figure out if it left him with a cold sweat or that his body was burning with fear that he was getting all sentimental and remembering the past. But he did come to a sit on his mattress and leaned against the headboard, eyes searching the simple room he owned in Kumogakure. Only a small light would shine through the window and he loved the ambiance it created, like a serene soft atmosphere to call his own. Glancing to the sidetable, his prized handguns, the one given by his mentor lay still.

“Memories are powerful, huh? I suppose this is part of what’s happening,” he said with a sigh as he ran a hand through his hair, only to stop as he remembered that brief moment of a flash of light when his mentor placed her hand on his head while he was young. “Is this the gift you said? Are you challenging me to learn as many and transform the memories into something only I can wield? If so… thank you.” He went back to sleep soon after, with a content smile on his face.

The next day, he was more than eager to put the theory to the test as he listed himself for a good long day of training in the coliseum. With one sword in one hand, and a gun another, he found himself in a standstill, in a world of memories playing before him, where he could select, he could rethink, and his body would just follow the rhythm it sang. Thus, the more he fought, the more he observed, the better he got. Though by the end of the day, he always got scolded about his recklessness. He always earned a few more cuts, a few more bruises, but that didn’t deter him. If anything, he felt all the more needy for something to push himself.

“Heh? It’s just a scratch,” he would then say, not bothered by the scent of his own blood, “No pain, no gain, right? Besides, unless I bleed, I wouldn’t know if I’m truly living. So if I’m still getting wounded, it just means I need to keep getting better. I just need to make… more memories to activate.”

Meeting my Slug Contract
If getting a familiar is as easy as picking one up and deciding to be partners with that said creature for the rest of your life, then this story would hold less meaning, even if it did seem that way. But with every connection, every relationship, there needed to be a point of crisis!

Jien had just begun his adventure into the big wide world when he took a detour into one town near the foot of the mountain. It was simple little town with nothing much to do, aside from their prosperous salt mines of which trades had helped the economy to blossom into their favor. In fact, their salt mines produce would even be exported for its quality and the abundance of its barely explored mines seemed to promise resources of up to another century or so. Hence, it came to be a problem when the local miners began to hear an eerie growling sound coming from within the mines and halted their work. Jien was merely nosy when he heard of this and struck a deal with the local chief to help in eradicating this wicked creature.

As Jien was at the entrance of the mines, he was astonished to find a rather peculiar creature on the ground. It a bluish little slug fella with three horns sticking out from its head and seemingly on all fours… err… four appendages actings as hands and feet, as it heaved in and out with deep rasping breaths, crawling into the entrance. Mind you, the little guy about a foot into the mine but he looked dangerously pale.

“Need a hand?” asked Jien as he crouched over to look at the struggling slug. Though he wasn’t really expecting a reply seeing how it was an animal. And so, it was much to his surprise when the slug’s head would turn to face him and glare at him despite those dark circles underneath its eyes.

“Shut up, human! I, the great slug Tyki, will not be defeated!” proclaimed the glaring slug before it faced the mine once more and was struggling to move another limb.

“Ah… okay,” was all Jien could say. He wasn’t a saint to simply lend a hand to every needy person, or creature, he came across with, so he didn’t bother. He simply nodded and stood back up before walking away into the darkness of the mine. All the while, he could hear the loud rasping breaths of the slug until the sound faded when he was already too far into the mines. He did manage to find the said creature that has been terrifying the local miners, and it was just a mere mountain cat who seemed to have made a den in their mines. He quickly disposed of it, though, seeing as how he was excited to return to the town and report his work.

And then, that’s when he saw it. The little blue slug had given up. Lying flat on the ground as someone had stepped on it, flattened almost, the unresponsive slug managed to get at least two-feet into the mines. “Poor fella”, said Jien as he crouched over the creature. He was about to give a brief prayer over the deceased little thing when it suddenly gasped and shocked the white-haired shinobi. And because of that, Jien had instinctively swatted it down with his hand. A moment of silence prevailed until he realised what he had just done before he pulled back his hand to find the unconscious creature on the ground. He swore he could almost see the soul leaving its body. “Oops. My bad.” Thus, he peeled off the slug from the ground and brought it to the inn where he was staying at the moment.

It was at night, after a few drinks with some of the grateful miners that Jien came back to his room in the inn to find the slug was wide awake. Standing on the window pane, the blue slug was seemingly trying to push the window to open. “What are you doing?” asked Jien as he stopped just halfway across the room.

“YOU!!!!” shouted the slug as it instantly flipped and turned to face Jien with an accusing finger… appendage. “How dare you! I didn’t ask for your help!”

Silence drowned the room for a short bit before Jien merely answered with, “K…”

“That’s it?!!! Have you no manners?! Didn’t your parents ever teach you how to properly answer?!”

“I had no parents.”

Again, another long and drawling silence ensued. It was ridiculous, really, to think that Jien, who was at that time 18 years old, was having a conversation with a slug in his room. Let alone a slug he found trying to enter the salt mines! But in the case of the slug, it, too, seemed to appear as though guilt crossed its face before it made a proper dogeza on the window pane and apologized.

“It’s okay,” Jien said again as he crossed the room and settled on his bed. “Good night.”

Truly, it was the strangest thing that the slug had ever experienced. A human, for once, did not seem to think of him strange, let alone abnormal. In fact, Jien was taking this far too ordinary that no sooner than the human had lied on the bed, the slug could hear snoring.

But perhaps it was because Jien had thought it was all just a dream, for the next day, he found his rented room missing any signs of a blue slug. And so, he would continue to try and enjoy his detour in that town, only to be dragged once more by a request about the said dangerous creature returning to the salt mines. Figuring that the mountain cat must have been moving in groups or such, Jien accepted the request. After all, it wasn’t in his nature to simply do things half-assed.

To his surprise, at the entrance of the salt mines, he found the blue slug once more! The little fella, no larger than ten inches in full height, though perhaps he can stretch more when flattened as per experience in the previous day, was once again trying to defy the nature of its biological make-up by crawling three feet into the salt mines! Incredible! Still, it was now down on its luck.

“Are you sure you don’t need a hand, Tyki?” asked Jien as he crouched down by the slug once more.

“I told you….I do…. not…… require…. assistance!!!!” yelled the slug before it spun its head and looked at Jien with a shocked expression. “How did you know my name?!!!”

“Hmmm?” Jien feigned ignorance as he smiled at the slug before hearing an echo of that eerie roaring down into the mines. “Looks like I have to get going. I’ll be back shortly. Don’t die on me.” And with that, Jien stood up and waved at the slug before heading further into the mines. He could only hear another yell from the slug before it became silent once more.

A couple of hours later, Jien would be dragging out around two heavy mountain cats when he spotted the blue slug on the ground. The poor little fella didn’t seem to have moved an inch from where it was earlier. So, Jien scooped up the barely alive slug and continued back to the town.

Strangely enough, even with the work in the salt mines have resumed after he subdued all the mountain cats that were trying to make a den of the mines, Jien would always find himself returning there just to find the blue slug attempting to enter once more. And each sunset, he would be carrying the slug back home. He lost count at five days, wondering what it was the slug was trying to achieve in this stupid endeavour, but the little guy, Tyki as he called himself, was just too stubborn and would leave before he’d wake up to ask for more questions. In those five days, Jien would sometimes just sit there and watch as the slug struggled, sometimes he’d wave a makeshift flag to cheer the little fella, only to be shot at with slime.

But his vacation in that detour town was about to end and he knew he’d have to bid farewell to the little guy, so went back to the salt mines’ entrance to give the slug one final look, and perhaps a warning to stop this or else it would really end up dying.

“No, no, no!” cried Tyki as he was caught outside the entrance by Jien. He was just about to start his next attempt when his concentration was supposedly compromised by the nagging human. “I don’t care if I die. I must have it. I can’t return empty-handed or else I’ll be seen as a loser!”

“What are you talking about? Look, just tell me what it is you’re trying to get inside for and I can get it for you-“

“No!!! I do not need your help!” Tyki shot another slime ball at Jien’s face before he rushed towards the entrance. He only managed to make it a few more feet into the mines before he collapsed.

Jien wiped the slime off his face and proceed to walk towards the flattened slug by the entrance of the salt mines. He didn’t really understand why but he could see the unflinching determination on the slug, even as he was taking his last few breaths. Crouching, Jien would poke a finger on the slug’s jelly body. “Give it up. Just tell me, already.”

“Neeeeeeeeeeeeeever!” Tyki bit his finger before truly losing consciousness.

Sighing, Jien carried the slug outside and since his rent had already ended, decided to make a small camp by the forest. It was under the beautiful starry night sky when Tyki would awake once more, to the healing glow of Jien’s medical jutsu. For once, Tyki seemed entranced by the glow, standing upright and then reaching out its appendage…er…hands to hold Jien’s hand and nuzzle against it. Admittedly, Jien thought it was cute and knew that he wouldn’t be able to live out the rest of his life if he left this creature on its own to his death.

“Are you feeling better now?” Jien asked.

“Chu chu chu!” Tyki seemed to chirp with glee before shock crossed his face and shot a slime ball at Jien’s face. “Don’t trick me, human!” Luckily, Jien had anticipated it and managed to dodge the slime ball this time before picking up Tyki and placing the slug on top of his chest as he was now lying down with a yawn.

“Good. You’re all spirited now. Well, good night. Please don’t try until morning or else I won’t get to you on time.” He gave the slug a pat on the head, earned a bit on a finger, he laughed and then went to sleep.

It wasn’t even dawn yet when Jien woke up to a startle. He felt an abnormal shift of chakra and that got him on the edge. Looking around the campsite, the fire was long out and there was no sign of the stubborn slug. Another spike of chakra pulse and Jien faced the salt mine’s direction. He quickly got up and dashed towards it, only to find a group of mountain cats seemingly ganging up on a smaller creature… and it was Tyki! The little guy was fighting back, shooting some water jutsu at them, but he was clearly weakened. And one big claw strike sent the little slug crashing to the ground, blood trailing.

It was at that point that Jien instinctively grew out his handguns and attacking the mountain cats. Viciously. Mercilessly. Strange how he had somehow was spurred into a brief rage that by the end of it, none of the mountain cats remained unscathed. Dead. Full of bullet holes.

Jien quickly went over to Tyki and picked up the slug, sensing the weakening chakra. He used all the medical jutsu he knew of to try and heal the slug, but it was becoming a lost cause. “Oy! Don’t give up, Tyki. You said you were the greatest,” said Jien, trying to spur some response, but the slug didn’t. He was silent and fading.

At that point, Jien sensed another chakra source to his side. From the forest came a larger slug…. well, a human-size slug, which made him wonder where did it come from. It was normal looking, with long stems that held the tennis-ball shaped eyes. Then, it would stop short of Jien before its eyes leaned closer towards Tyki. “My dear! Was I too late?” the large slug cried.

“No, he can still be saved,” said Jien. “But who are you?”

“I’m sorry. I’m little Tyki’s guardian and master but I wasn’t able to protect him. Then, I learned from one of my other disciples that Tyki got into an argument and was dared to come here and retrieve the largest salt rock from within the salt mines to prove his worth as a warrior. It was really foolish and dangerous!”

“That’s stupid,” commented Jien as he placed Tyki closer to him, almost as if he was doubting this larger slug, while he continued to let out his chakra to treat the small slug. “You should have done something before he even came here… no, wait. Where are you guys coming from anyway?”

“Ah. That’s right. We’re from the Sakana Forest, where warrior slugs train all their lives to become protectors. My name is Roso and I’m one of the few teachers there. But I’m soon turning to my second century and so there was a squabble about inheriting my dojo, which led to the argument that caused little Tyki, here, to almost lose his life in this stupid challenge. I am truly sorry. Please forgive my inaptness.”

Silence reigned for a bit before Jien finally sighed. “You’re both the same. You may be different in appearance, but you both have good and earnest hearts. It’s just a pity that he was led on like that. He was really determined and seemed to have preferred death than shame.”

At that point, Tyki began to squirm and slowly opened his eyes. He was confused, at first, before he began to look between Jien and his master. “M-master!”

“Hush now, little one. It’s alright. I’ve come to take you home. It was a foolish challenge and the rest were already punished. So please, let’s be on our way.”

“No! I won’t!” cried Tyki as the slug climbed over to Jien’s shoulder in order to see the larger slug at full height. “I won’t come back like this. Even if it was foolish! I want to prove to everyone that I’m a warrior!”

“But you don’t have to-”

“No!”

“I see. It looks like we’re on the same boat, Tyki,” said Jien, giving the slug a pat on the head. “I, too, am wandering about to learn more and become stronger while in search of my own master for she made me promise to meet her and duel her once I’ve become the strongest. The only difference, I suppose, is that I don’t rush in head-on so stupidly as before.”

“Don’t call me stupid.”

“I’m not. I think that you’re a great warrior, but you just need more experience.”

Hearing that made Tyki blush, turning most of the bluish color on his face to a mild pink tint. “That’s why… if it’s alright with you, sir Roso, I’d like to take Tyki with me for a bit,” Jien continued, getting the odd stare from both slugs. “You see, I think that once Tyki has grown more, and experienced enough, he’d know when to come back and show his greatness as a warrior. And I know he, himself, understands his own limitations at the moment, but pressure from everyone can force him to do foolish things. But if I’m there, I can make sure he doesn’t push himself too hard, while also challenging him to become better as I would for myself. Besides, I don’t think I can move on from here without him, knowing he might end up going into another foolish challenge, and if I’m not there, I won’t be able to save him at all.”

“Y-y-you… I told you… I… I don’t need…. help,” said Tyki while lowering his head.

“But I need you here by my side,” said Jien with a cool expression, “Or else I’d feel guilty.” Then, he faced the larger slug once more, “I’m sorry for saying something selfish, but I need you to approve of this. We may have only met for a short while, but I must admit, I’ve grown fond of him, because he kind of reminds me of my younger self. But you see, if I didn’t meet a few people in my life, if I had always thought I was better off on my own, I would have long been dead. So I’d like to be that someone who can support this little guy and make sure he would never be put to the same things I’ve endured before.”

Tyki looked on at Jien with concern but the white-haired shinobi would only smile and carry him on his hand now. “I know. I’ll only help when you ask for it, or when I really see that you need it. I won’t baby you. Of course not. But that doesn’t mean I want to see you risk your life for everything. So if you’re willing to come get stronger with me, I’ll do my best. After all, you’re the greatest warrior slug, right? You need stories to tell your fans and everyone else. So let’s explore the world for a bit before you go back, okay?”

Jien smiled as he saw tears welling up in Tyki’s eyes as the slug nodded before turning to face his master. “Master Roso… c-can I? I promise to train three times a day. I … I… promise to come back as a hero!”

Needless to say, despite a few more protestations from the larger slug, Tyki would manage to convince his master. And come mid-afternoon, Jien and Tyki would bid farewell to the large slug who seemed to simply disappear into the forest. Really mysterious. Thus, began their journey together. But first, Jien knew he had to give Tyki a few pointers about not throwing slime balls every time the slug was about to throw a tantrum.

What is Limbo Training?
This is the training that you would have gotten if you did not move on to your new character's life. Your caps are determined by your rebirthed stats. You must keep a record of your stats gained during limbo in your OCR thread. You may NOT request for an automatic rank up should you find that your new stats allow you to upgrade. Limbo training is only for people who have died in modded combat or suicide. Anyone whose character has not died is still capable of RPing that character until their OCR is finalized, and thus can train as normal.


Things you do NOT need to state, but take note of:
  • Abilities = All of your Abilities are auto-untrained upon rebirth. In order to have any Abilities for your new character, you must activate them by posting in your character’s Dojo topic in your new village.
  • Character History = By suiciding/rebirthing, you're making a new character. This means your new character must not know or remember anything of your old character's life/thoughts/feelings. If your new character has ANY direct/indirect connection to your old character, you MUST state that in your new character history write up for Admin & Village approvals. All Medical or ANBU related experience should be reflected in your history along with CA or BL influence.
  • Editing Your New Character Application = Do not edit a post you have made in your OCR. You must copy all of your information from your last post and add the changes to the new post. This is for papertrail reasons.

Things that do NOT transfer with your next character:
Please take notice of which ASP shop items that you have bought transfer with your character, and which do not.

Character's Physical Description:
Jien is a tall lad with a average frame and toned muscles. He has short messy white hair, almost curling along the ends of the fringes. He once had vibrant purple colored eyes when he was a child, but has now turned darker almost greyish in color. He has a natural tan complexion. He is usually seen wearing his bluish-grey parka over a black undershirt, with white pants combat shoes. A circular amulet would always hang around his neck. This can be considered as his field and mission clothes, with the metal plate of Kumogakure located on the buckle of his belt. His other choice of wardrobe is a white button-up dress shirt and a pair of black pants and boots. On this, he uses the amulet as a necktie of sorts, and is mostly when he needs to attend in some formal gathering.

Character's Mental Description:
As a person… Jien can be laid-back. He is very much grounded to reality that he is more of a realist than an optimist. In fact, he may come out rude or pessimistic so long as he shows the blunt reality that is before him. But that is only when he speaks his mind. He isn’t someone who like to rub his own thoughts into others, nor someone who wants to gossip. He can be observant, but he doesn’t take it upon himself to act on it unless necessary. If asked how he would define himself, Jien would, no doubt, answer that he is just an ordinary man trying to get by one day at a time.

As a shinobi… Jien is perceptive but follows the directive more than anything else. He has been trained since he was young about the harsh realities of the world, and of the sufferings needed. Consequences are treated as part of the job, and so he must always focus on getting the job done with an objective mind. Over the years, over many scars and near death experiences, Jien has long abandoned inhibitions. He has hardened himself to the point of breathing life and death together, of seeing and tasting blood, of ignoring the pains and merciless fighting style. He believes that only those who are quick and determined can ever achieve anything, as such, he prides himself with his marksmanship– an ability he honed for years and never once failed him.

As a foreigner in service of a foreign land… Jien has never shied away from admitting that he wasn’t born in Lightning Country, though he would often escape further questions. Somehow, there’s a strange determination in him to become a valuable asset to Kumogakure. At one point, he exclaimed how he was fascinated and in awe about the organised structure, particularly with the power and responsibilities that the known Sennins and the Raikage had. Because of this, he is quite eager to prove his mettle to become part of the Kumogakure system.

As an okonomiyaki lover… Jien doesn’t shy away from spending his money to eat okonomiyaki everyday. In fact, if given the opportunity, he’d eat it all his life. Nothing could ever separate him from this one true love of his, lest they who dare are willing to earn his ire.

Character History:
Origin & CA: Hawkeye
As far as Jien could remember, he had always held a gun. Whether it was for self-defense or for assault, the smell of gunpowder had always been a familiar fume, and the recoil on his arm was the perfect tension to know that he was alive. He was an orphan in the streets of the underground slums of Earth Country, knowing only to fend for himself lest he be the victim of others. As such, he would eventually meet a certain gang that roamed around his vicinity and eventually would be taken in by them. Life growing with them was harsh but also full of adventure. If he could get past their abuses and insults, he actually learned a lot from them, especially the use of a gun. His first kill was when he was 7 and ever since he was constantly made use by the gang for their own survival. After all, while Arcadia, the lost capital of the underground world, was known to having rich miners, there were also those who were cast with misfortune. As such, the envy of those who have nothing led to many gangs that would try to accumulate their own wealth.

It was only a decade later when he would meet some people from the surface, one being a shinobi from Konohagakure on an observation mission. Their encounter was not one of friendship. A particular robbery that their gang had planned would be stopped by this shinobi, by coincidence, and though the encounter was rough and almost led to his untimely death, Jien was give a choice to properly make use of his talent elsewhere. Of course, while the thought of becoming a shinobi did seem a bit attractive to him, Jien refused the Konoha shinobi and escaped on his own. With the untimely disbanding of their gang, it was the first time that Jien found a strange emptiness, almost as if he didn’t have a goal in sight.

One last robbery got him entangled with a visiting nobleman, whom he would deceive into hiring him as bodyguard. He had only planned to steal this man’s wealth and possession, but as he played along, he eventually found himself brought out into the surface. For the first time, Jien breathed the fresh air and saw the endless sky. Eventually, he forgot the thought of stealing from this nobleman as he agreed to continue to work for him, even gaining new skills and being taught of various things. This nobleman would eventually adopt him, confessing that he knew of Jien’s real plans but took pity on him since he reminded him of his lost daughter, his face resembling hers. As such, for a few years, Jien would live a normal life, being taught the rudiments of language, history and even their family’s business and trade.

But Jien wasn’t one to be tied down that easily. He had lived most of his life in a completely opposite way– one of danger, death, and battles– that a normal life was seemingly impossible. So he made use of the family’s influence to find means to train further. Some of their clients would be accompanied by warriors, soldiers, or even shinobis, that Jien would make use of their time to try and learn from them. Eventually, he would find a master marksman who took an interest to his own inclination of the gun, and because this traveling vagabond didn’t have anywhere else to live, he was allowed to personally train Jien in the nobleman’s estate and live there.

Even then, the heart of a vagabond grew tired of a stale life and decided to leave one day, leaving behind a note for Jien. In it would be the beginning of the lifelong journey of the young lad. His final lesson from the master marksman was, apparently, to find him and duel with him one day. It was a daunting task, considering that he knew well that the words meant that it would be a duel to the death, thus, Jien knew he needed to prepare himself for what could be the ultimate battle of his life. And he could only to do without anything else to hold him back. Because of it, he would bid farewell to the kind nobleman before disappearing for good.

In his travel to train and search for any clues of where his master went, Jien would eventually reach Lightning Country. There, he would learn from some of the villages about Kumogakure. While he was not interested at first, he soon came to understand that Kumogakure was one of the prime shinobi villages in the land, and no doubt their intelligence division would become useful. More importantly, he came to understand, from few of the testimonies of the people he met, that Kumogakure had a long history of strong warriors, commendable shinobis, and esteemed branches that make a difference on a world stage. How much of that was true, he wasn’t certain, but somehow it made Jien remember of that group he once met in Arcadia.

Once, he had somehow dreamt of being free and being able to do what he wanted, back when he was trapped in the gang. It was then when their gang had a run-in with the Kagerenmei, a group who believed in “peace by all means”, who protected the denizens, and whom Jien first felt gratitude to. However, what remains of that group was now just a pile of rocks, ruins, and gravestones. He was still young back then that he couldn’t have understood the gravity of their actions, but Jien knew that they were good, and he once aspired to become part of them.

Perhaps, that dream is not yet completely lost– he thought, as he makes a decision to go to Kumogakure and see if this would change his life. And perhaps, he’ll eventually grow stronger into someone worthy to fight his master one day.

Thus, for the last seven years, Jien has lived in Kumogakure. He trained, worked, and learned to become better, and to become part of a system that he truly believed he could find himself being proud of– Kumogakure. And while becoming a shinobi may not have been a priority in his mind when he was a child, it was now evidently part of who he was. But unlike others that relied on their ninjutsu and illusions and such, Jien had furthered his ability with the gun and rifle. To complement it, he knew taking up different tactics and a suitable hunting partner would be to his advantage, and hopeful would make him a valuable asset to the village.
Kinjutsu: Chimera (reflavored) + CA: Reckless
The crack of lightning in the sky lights up the dark world, and in that split second, Jien saw the reflection of light against the blade that was hovering just above his head. In the dark of night, the enemy had gotten confident to conceal himself within the shadows to create this opportunity. However much he may have wanted to cut down the white-haired warrior, Jien was far from being a sitting duck. As light reflects against his own grey eyes, Jien pulled his hands close towards him and then pivoted on his back foot, entering into a sudden turn to avoid the swinging arc of the blade. A whistle comes in the wake of the completed swing of nothing but air. And in retaliation, Jien completes his turn to face the enemy once more, bring with him the momentum of his step-back and lunge, as he catch the attacker’s sword arm in his closer arm, wrapping along the elbow, and then pulling the enemy close for the cold steel of his handgun to touch the man’s head. Smoke fades into the night air as the echo dies into the distance. Jien picks up the blade from the still body and firmly holds on the handle, testing the weight for a good long moment.

In that instance, a memory surfaces into his mind. Some years back as he was surviving in the underground capital of Earth Country, the Arcadia, his ways of surviving with the gangs had been his introduction to this violent world. Blood was life… scent… and death. It was the constant stint that dwelled in the less than stellar neighbourhood, far from where the rich men and those who struck gold with the mining industry had lived. In this far-reaching neighbourhood, it was almost as if the underground had robbed them of every bit of light. Not even the gems that stuck out from the walls could have been seen as a light, for they merely lay witness to the bloodshed that occurred in those streets. Far from the prying eyes of the righteous– in a world where Jien learned the worth of each bullet he shot– the young warrior would be taught how deadly the blade could be.

It was during one of their gang wars, when they would expand their territory thus crushing the nearby gangs who thought otherwise, that he would witness one of their own easily cut up another. It was terrifying to watch, especially for a child, as blood sprayed to the ground and the walls, a scream so shrill turning deadly silent before the drop of the body. The image would burn itself into the eyes of the members, but for Jien, his eyes were fixated on the blade that their leader held. It dripped of the crimson liquid yet it was still. He could tell there was power in it, yet the power was unstable, almost seemingly reaching out to him. But he stay away from it.

When he a bit older, turning just ten over the few the weeks, he would finally get a taste of handling the blade. The leader expected him to follow him to the very end, and as such, a new skill set was required. Though he was still quite devoted to his instinct that valued the gun that pretty much his weapon of choice, he was a quick learner with the blade. He didn’t like the large swords, rather, he kept with the daggers, the medium-length, and somethings the curved ones. For a boy who was rather average in build, almost underweight to be honest, his hands held the blade’s hilt firmly and each of his strikes were had a purpose, even if it seemed like a reckless dance. A few times he cut himself, but those few times, he never complained. A few times he got cut when he fought another, and still, he never complained.

“You’re creepy,” one of the members said one day, right when they had just finished another turf war. Some of them were returning to their base with cuts and bruises, while others with severed limbs or left behind dead. Jien had a few long cuts on his chest and legs that his blood would pool whenever he stopped to rest. He would take in a long deep breath to relax his muscles and repeat the words in his head: “do not give up.” And so, he would simply smile at those condescending words of his ally, wiping blood off his bruised face and walk on. Nothing would stop him but himself– he thought, and so, as long as he never thought of his death, he would have nothing to fear.

Some of the scars around his body were because he never saw the need to avoid getting wounded, often getting called reckless by his allies. But there was something stimulating about the act of bleeding that made him feel much more alive. It was almost as if each drawing of his blood made his muscles burn and his heart roar. And so, he would prove that he would be a devastating enemy to the other gangs. A gun in one hand and a short sword in the other, he walked with a trail of blood, both his and his enemies.

Once, he almost died from it all, and it was when he learned how it felt to be an asset. He was saved by the gang leader and he would be nursed to health before he would return to the field. Throughout that time, while others pressed on for him to rethink about the value of life, there was just nothing that could seem to make him fear death. “I bleed because I’m alive. Isn’t that enough?” he once asked one of the concerned allies before he would pick up his gun and dagger to prepare for another stand against in a turf war.

At present, Jien grins at the thought of the memory. Indeed, it has been long since he felt the handle of a blade against his calloused hand that only held guns for so long. And it didn’t seem so bad to do so again. Brandishing the blade overhead before settling it to his side, Jien would look up ahead of him to spot a few more of the gathered assailants that thought it was wise to track him in the alleyway and kill him off. That was probably their mistake in this hunt, for he was the hunter and never the prey.

Thus, relishing in the atmosphere, blade in hand, memories resurfacing of every instance, every experience of the sword, and his grin turns into a flat expression. A silent showdown eclipses at the howl of the night breeze, sending Jien dashing without hesitation. The narrow alleyway would not have been ideal, but only for the uninitiated. He was not.

At the reaction of the assailants, Jien leapt off the ground and onto the wall before kicking off to a twist overhead as he dodges their initial strikes. His body moves like instincts possessed him, especially when memories have been selected for this particular action. Then, he spins a slashing swing before shifting the blade as he kicks off from the other wall. Dodge, attack, dodge, attack. Slide away from the reach of the enemy’s blade then counter with his own. Just then, something struck him from behind as he makes for a wide dodge. A hand goes over and he grabs hold of the cold steel before pulling out and throwing it above. More have appeared on the rooftops of the alleyway, seemingly eager to chuck their kunais at him.

He clicked his tongue as he touched the ground, leaving only a few moments to readjust himself before a powerful kick to the ground jumpstarts him towards the assailants with a final slash to kill the one on the ground with him. In his speed, he avoids the next slew of projectiles before he jumps and scales the wall while shifting his other hand to reload his handgun. Then, as he reached the top, he jumped over the hidden attacking assailant, barely missing the broad swing. With deft grace and acrobatic precision, he places the end of the barrel against the man’s head from behind and pulls the trigger, before dropping down to use the now dead assailant as a shield from the incoming kunais of the others. Then, he would rush out and start shooting with precision and speed, getting closer and closer.

One. Two. Three. They drop like rag dolls into the alleyway until Jien slices the last one before a heated stamp of a bullet kisses the center of his head. The impact was enough to throw him off the ledge and straight into the canal on the other side of the alley. From there, Kiri looks on as he counts the bodies. Just like in the report, everyone was accounted for. He nodded as if he was satisfied and then he throws the blade out into the canal waters, before placing his gun back to is holster hidden underneath his coat-jacket.

As he begins to walk away, he realises that he was injured. A short sting on his back makes him remember the kunai that was lucky enough to lodge itself on him. He sighs in frustration before shrugging. He didn’t really want to bother much of it and it’s not like he was going to die from it. There wasn’t any feeling of poison either, so he continued to walk, hoping he could get back to the room he rented in that town so he could have a nice long warm bath.

It was after that mission when he realised that something was changing in him. Jien could feel that it yet he couldn’t put a word to it. Everything was just so natural to him that it was nothing to think about. But perhaps it was because it made things feels so natural and so familiar to him that something was, in fact, causing it. Like the way he held a knife that instantly summoned memories of the way to slash and let go all of his inhibitions. Or the way he believed that he could not imagine a day without touching his precious guns. Or the way he was perceiving others, especially in the training grounds. The coliseum was giving him a hard time lately, for as he trained, his perception easily catches details he would have ignored in the past. Lately, he was remembering everything to the very last detail, of the trainee’s weight, their footwork, their handling prowess and their breathing. He was remembering a technique even as he only seen it once. And he was recreating it perfectly, almost like mirror imagery. It was interesting, almost mysterious, that he couldn’t quite pinpoint what made him so, but he would capitalise on this new phenomena he was experiencing, and so often he would make time for the coliseum to observe and simply learn. Was it like the so-called famous Sharingan? Maybe, who knows, but it wasn’t about copying, it was also about living through it.


One night, Jien was visited by a dream he never once had. It was almost as he if lost himself into the memory of the dream– standing in the courtyard of the nobleman’s mansion, hand pressed on the handle of the gun he possessed. He was a child, once again, and he didn’t seem at all mad about it. In fact, there was a bubbling urge within him that wanted resurface, a strange kind of excitement that could only be explained by that single moment in his life. He was meeting his mentor for the day and he couldn’t help but be excited about it.

Looking to his left, he caught sight his mentor in the distance, walking into the woods. With a big wide smile, Jien ran off to follow. Strange how the concept of the marksman mentor had always been an inspiring urge within his heart and yet the silhouette in his memories was always of a man. But in this dream, she was clearly different. Long dark hair with a feather hairpin, some markings on her face, and a motherly smile. She looked at him with expectant eyes and embraced him before they began their routine training in the woods. There, he would witness her marksmanship unrivalled by any other. It would just be another day in his life, only this time, he would not have to worry about using his gun to kill in order to survive.

However, as they were finishing, with the sun going down over the horizon, something felt amis. She would stop on her tracks and place a hand on his head, saying, “Jien, you’re a very talented child. It’s really sad to think you had to live a life that way until now. I wish there was so much more you could have experienced. Promise me that one day you’ll find me and show me all that you’ve learned.”

It was a peculiar promise, almost as if she was leaving him for good. “Why? Are you going somewhere?” asked Jien, remember the exact words that unfolded that day.

“I’m a nomad. I don’t stay for long in one place. And you’ve been a good student. I’ve met a lot in my lifetime, but never one like you. You are almost like my child, but I know I can’t be selfish. You have a whole life ahead of you. That’s why, even if it’s a little bit, I want to help you make the most of it, to grow stronger and achieve the fullest of your potential.”

At those words, Jien felt something surround him and a shimmer of a bright light on her hand on his head. It was brief so he thought it was merely the sunset’s rays shining through the openings between the canopies, often than not brightly shining her figure. Like the rays of hope. But now that he looked back to this memory, it was highly suspicious, especially with the words she left him after that.

“One day, you’ll come to remember things you would not think of remembering. One day, you’ll experience what you have seen. When that time comes, you’ll find yourself moving to the ways of the natural world, dancing to the tune of the memories. When you remember, let go of your fears and allow yourself to grow further. Only then will you realise that there is more to master, more reason to train, and that perfection is but a myth,” she spoke almost like a chant before he let go of his head. Then, she would give him her prized possession of two handguns. These were the ones that she said she had personally crafted from a famous artisan in a land to the north. “My gift… This might become problematic, and I hope you will not abuse it to the point of endangering yourself. But I do believe you have the right sense of judgment. You’re still young but already, you’ve seen so much. That’s why, when you do use this, please remember everything. So that you will not fall into the traps of men. People forget once they gain power, but memories are more powerful than anything else.”

“What are you saying? I don’t understand,” said the child Jien with a raised brow. She merely laughed and then urged them both to return to the mansion.

“Don’t worry. One day you’ll understand.”

Waking up from the dream, Jien couldn’t quite figure out if it left him with a cold sweat or that his body was burning with fear that he was getting all sentimental and remembering the past. But he did come to a sit on his mattress and leaned against the headboard, eyes searching the simple room he owned in Kumogakure. Only a small light would shine through the window and he loved the ambiance it created, like a serene soft atmosphere to call his own. Glancing to the sidetable, his prized handguns, the one given by his mentor lay still.

“Memories are powerful, huh? I suppose this is part of what’s happening,” he said with a sigh as he ran a hand through his hair, only to stop as he remembered that brief moment of a flash of light when his mentor placed her hand on his head while he was young. “Is this the gift you said? Are you challenging me to learn as many and transform the memories into something only I can wield? If so… thank you.” He went back to sleep soon after, with a content smile on his face.

The next day, he was more than eager to put the theory to the test as he listed himself for a good long day of training in the coliseum. With one sword in one hand, and a gun another, he found himself in a standstill, in a world of memories playing before him, where he could select, he could rethink, and his body would just follow the rhythm it sang. Thus, the more he fought, the more he observed, the better he got. Though by the end of the day, he always got scolded about his recklessness. He always earned a few more cuts, a few more bruises, but that didn’t deter him. If anything, he felt all the more needy for something to push himself.

“Heh? It’s just a scratch,” he would then say, not bothered by the scent of his own blood, “No pain, no gain, right? Besides, unless I bleed, I wouldn’t know if I’m truly living. So if I’m still getting wounded, it just means I need to keep getting better. I just need to make… more memories to activate.”

[WC: 2,980]
Meeting my Slug Contract
If getting a familiar is as easy as picking one up and deciding to be partners with that said creature for the rest of your life, then this story would hold less meaning, even if it did seem that way. But with every connection, every relationship, there needed to be a point of crisis!

Jien had just begun his adventure into the big wide world when he took a detour into one town near the foot of the mountain. It was simple little town with nothing much to do, aside from their prosperous salt mines of which trades had helped the economy to blossom into their favor. In fact, their salt mines produce would even be exported for its quality and the abundance of its barely explored mines seemed to promise resources of up to another century or so. Hence, it came to be a problem when the local miners began to hear an eerie growling sound coming from within the mines and halted their work. Jien was merely nosy when he heard of this and struck a deal with the local chief to help in eradicating this wicked creature.

As Jien was at the entrance of the mines, he was astonished to find a rather peculiar creature on the ground. It a bluish little slug fella with three horns sticking out from its head and seemingly on all fours… err… four appendages actings as hands and feet, as it heaved in and out with deep rasping breaths, crawling into the entrance. Mind you, the little guy about a foot into the mine but he looked dangerously pale.

“Need a hand?” asked Jien as he crouched over to look at the struggling slug. Though he wasn’t really expecting a reply seeing how it was an animal. And so, it was much to his surprise when the slug’s head would turn to face him and glare at him despite those dark circles underneath its eyes.

“Shut up, human! I, the great slug Tyki, will not be defeated!” proclaimed the glaring slug before it faced the mine once more and was struggling to move another limb.

“Ah… okay,” was all Jien could say. He wasn’t a saint to simply lend a hand to every needy person, or creature, he came across with, so he didn’t bother. He simply nodded and stood back up before walking away into the darkness of the mine. All the while, he could hear the loud rasping breaths of the slug until the sound faded when he was already too far into the mines. He did manage to find the said creature that has been terrifying the local miners, and it was just a mere mountain cat who seemed to have made a den in their mines. He quickly disposed of it, though, seeing as how he was excited to return to the town and report his work.

And then, that’s when he saw it. The little blue slug had given up. Lying flat on the ground as someone had stepped on it, flattened almost, the unresponsive slug managed to get at least two-feet into the mines. “Poor fella”, said Jien as he crouched over the creature. He was about to give a brief prayer over the deceased little thing when it suddenly gasped and shocked the white-haired shinobi. And because of that, Jien had instinctively swatted it down with his hand. A moment of silence prevailed until he realised what he had just done before he pulled back his hand to find the unconscious creature on the ground. He swore he could almost see the soul leaving its body. “Oops. My bad.” Thus, he peeled off the slug from the ground and brought it to the inn where he was staying at the moment.

It was at night, after a few drinks with some of the grateful miners that Jien came back to his room in the inn to find the slug was wide awake. Standing on the window pane, the blue slug was seemingly trying to push the window to open. “What are you doing?” asked Jien as he stopped just halfway across the room.

“YOU!!!!” shouted the slug as it instantly flipped and turned to face Jien with an accusing finger… appendage. “How dare you! I didn’t ask for your help!”

Silence drowned the room for a short bit before Jien merely answered with, “K…”

“That’s it?!!! Have you no manners?! Didn’t your parents ever teach you how to properly answer?!”

“I had no parents.”

Again, another long and drawling silence ensued. It was ridiculous, really, to think that Jien, who was at that time 18 years old, was having a conversation with a slug in his room. Let alone a slug he found trying to enter the salt mines! But in the case of the slug, it, too, seemed to appear as though guilt crossed its face before it made a proper dogeza on the window pane and apologized.

“It’s okay,” Jien said again as he crossed the room and settled on his bed. “Good night.”

Truly, it was the strangest thing that the slug had ever experienced. A human, for once, did not seem to think of him strange, let alone abnormal. In fact, Jien was taking this far too ordinary that no sooner than the human had lied on the bed, the slug could hear snoring.

But perhaps it was because Jien had thought it was all just a dream, for the next day, he found his rented room missing any signs of a blue slug. And so, he would continue to try and enjoy his detour in that town, only to be dragged once more by a request about the said dangerous creature returning to the salt mines. Figuring that the mountain cat must have been moving in groups or such, Jien accepted the request. After all, it wasn’t in his nature to simply do things half-assed.

To his surprise, at the entrance of the salt mines, he found the blue slug once more! The little fella, no larger than ten inches in full height, though perhaps he can stretch more when flattened as per experience in the previous day, was once again trying to defy the nature of its biological make-up by crawling three feet into the salt mines! Incredible! Still, it was now down on its luck.

“Are you sure you don’t need a hand, Tyki?” asked Jien as he crouched down by the slug once more.

“I told you….I do…. not…… require…. assistance!!!!” yelled the slug before it spun its head and looked at Jien with a shocked expression. “How did you know my name?!!!”

“Hmmm?” Jien feigned ignorance as he smiled at the slug before hearing an echo of that eerie roaring down into the mines. “Looks like I have to get going. I’ll be back shortly. Don’t die on me.” And with that, Jien stood up and waved at the slug before heading further into the mines. He could only hear another yell from the slug before it became silent once more.

A couple of hours later, Jien would be dragging out around two heavy mountain cats when he spotted the blue slug on the ground. The poor little fella didn’t seem to have moved an inch from where it was earlier. So, Jien scooped up the barely alive slug and continued back to the town.

Strangely enough, even with the work in the salt mines have resumed after he subdued all the mountain cats that were trying to make a den of the mines, Jien would always find himself returning there just to find the blue slug attempting to enter once more. And each sunset, he would be carrying the slug back home. He lost count at five days, wondering what it was the slug was trying to achieve in this stupid endeavour, but the little guy, Tyki as he called himself, was just too stubborn and would leave before he’d wake up to ask for more questions. In those five days, Jien would sometimes just sit there and watch as the slug struggled, sometimes he’d wave a makeshift flag to cheer the little fella, only to be shot at with slime.

But his vacation in that detour town was about to end and he knew he’d have to bid farewell to the little guy, so went back to the salt mines’ entrance to give the slug one final look, and perhaps a warning to stop this or else it would really end up dying.

“No, no, no!” cried Tyki as he was caught outside the entrance by Jien. He was just about to start his next attempt when his concentration was supposedly compromised by the nagging human. “I don’t care if I die. I must have it. I can’t return empty-handed or else I’ll be seen as a loser!”

“What are you talking about? Look, just tell me what it is you’re trying to get inside for and I can get it for you-“

“No!!! I do not need your help!” Tyki shot another slime ball at Jien’s face before he rushed towards the entrance. He only managed to make it a few more feet into the mines before he collapsed.

Jien wiped the slime off his face and proceed to walk towards the flattened slug by the entrance of the salt mines. He didn’t really understand why but he could see the unflinching determination on the slug, even as he was taking his last few breaths. Crouching, Jien would poke a finger on the slug’s jelly body. “Give it up. Just tell me, already.”

“Neeeeeeeeeeeeeever!” Tyki bit his finger before truly losing consciousness.

Sighing, Jien carried the slug outside and since his rent had already ended, decided to make a small camp by the forest. It was under the beautiful starry night sky when Tyki would awake once more, to the healing glow of Jien’s medical jutsu. For once, Tyki seemed entranced by the glow, standing upright and then reaching out its appendage…er…hands to hold Jien’s hand and nuzzle against it. Admittedly, Jien thought it was cute and knew that he wouldn’t be able to live out the rest of his life if he left this creature on its own to his death.

“Are you feeling better now?” Jien asked.

“Chu chu chu!” Tyki seemed to chirp with glee before shock crossed his face and shot a slime ball at Jien’s face. “Don’t trick me, human!” Luckily, Jien had anticipated it and managed to dodge the slime ball this time before picking up Tyki and placing the slug on top of his chest as he was now lying down with a yawn.

“Good. You’re all spirited now. Well, good night. Please don’t try until morning or else I won’t get to you on time.” He gave the slug a pat on the head, earned a bit on a finger, he laughed and then went to sleep.

It wasn’t even dawn yet when Jien woke up to a startle. He felt an abnormal shift of chakra and that got him on the edge. Looking around the campsite, the fire was long out and there was no sign of the stubborn slug. Another spike of chakra pulse and Jien faced the salt mine’s direction. He quickly got up and dashed towards it, only to find a group of mountain cats seemingly ganging up on a smaller creature… and it was Tyki! The little guy was fighting back, shooting some water jutsu at them, but he was clearly weakened. And one big claw strike sent the little slug crashing to the ground, blood trailing.

It was at that point that Jien instinctively grew out his handguns and attacking the mountain cats. Viciously. Mercilessly. Strange how he had somehow was spurred into a brief rage that by the end of it, none of the mountain cats remained unscathed. Dead. Full of bullet holes.

Jien quickly went over to Tyki and picked up the slug, sensing the weakening chakra. He used all the medical jutsu he knew of to try and heal the slug, but it was becoming a lost cause. “Oy! Don’t give up, Tyki. You said you were the greatest,” said Jien, trying to spur some response, but the slug didn’t. He was silent and fading.

At that point, Jien sensed another chakra source to his side. From the forest came a larger slug…. well, a human-size slug, which made him wonder where did it come from. It was normal looking, with long stems that held the tennis-ball shaped eyes. Then, it would stop short of Jien before its eyes leaned closer towards Tyki. “My dear! Was I too late?” the large slug cried.

“No, he can still be saved,” said Jien. “But who are you?”

“I’m sorry. I’m little Tyki’s guardian and master but I wasn’t able to protect him. Then, I learned from one of my other disciples that Tyki got into an argument and was dared to come here and retrieve the largest salt rock from within the salt mines to prove his worth as a warrior. It was really foolish and dangerous!”

“That’s stupid,” commented Jien as he placed Tyki closer to him, almost as if he was doubting this larger slug, while he continued to let out his chakra to treat the small slug. “You should have done something before he even came here… no, wait. Where are you guys coming from anyway?”

“Ah. That’s right. We’re from the Sakana Forest, where warrior slugs train all their lives to become protectors. My name is Roso and I’m one of the few teachers there. But I’m soon turning to my second century and so there was a squabble about inheriting my dojo, which led to the argument that caused little Tyki, here, to almost lose his life in this stupid challenge. I am truly sorry. Please forgive my inaptness.”

Silence reigned for a bit before Jien finally sighed. “You’re both the same. You may be different in appearance, but you both have good and earnest hearts. It’s just a pity that he was led on like that. He was really determined and seemed to have preferred death than shame.”

At that point, Tyki began to squirm and slowly opened his eyes. He was confused, at first, before he began to look between Jien and his master. “M-master!”

“Hush now, little one. It’s alright. I’ve come to take you home. It was a foolish challenge and the rest were already punished. So please, let’s be on our way.”

“No! I won’t!” cried Tyki as the slug climbed over to Jien’s shoulder in order to see the larger slug at full height. “I won’t come back like this. Even if it was foolish! I want to prove to everyone that I’m a warrior!”

“But you don’t have to-”

“No!”

“I see. It looks like we’re on the same boat, Tyki,” said Jien, giving the slug a pat on the head. “I, too, am wandering about to learn more and become stronger while in search of my own master for she made me promise to meet her and duel her once I’ve become the strongest. The only difference, I suppose, is that I don’t rush in head-on so stupidly as before.”

“Don’t call me stupid.”

“I’m not. I think that you’re a great warrior, but you just need more experience.”

Hearing that made Tyki blush, turning most of the bluish color on his face to a mild pink tint. “That’s why… if it’s alright with you, sir Roso, I’d like to take Tyki with me for a bit,” Jien continued, getting the odd stare from both slugs. “You see, I think that once Tyki has grown more, and experienced enough, he’d know when to come back and show his greatness as a warrior. And I know he, himself, understands his own limitations at the moment, but pressure from everyone can force him to do foolish things. But if I’m there, I can make sure he doesn’t push himself too hard, while also challenging him to become better as I would for myself. Besides, I don’t think I can move on from here without him, knowing he might end up going into another foolish challenge, and if I’m not there, I won’t be able to save him at all.”

“Y-y-you… I told you… I… I don’t need…. help,” said Tyki while lowering his head.

“But I need you here by my side,” said Jien with a cool expression, “Or else I’d feel guilty.” Then, he faced the larger slug once more, “I’m sorry for saying something selfish, but I need you to approve of this. We may have only met for a short while, but I must admit, I’ve grown fond of him, because he kind of reminds me of my younger self. But you see, if I didn’t meet a few people in my life, if I had always thought I was better off on my own, I would have long been dead. So I’d like to be that someone who can support this little guy and make sure he would never be put to the same things I’ve endured before.”

Tyki looked on at Jien with concern but the white-haired shinobi would only smile and carry him on his hand now. “I know. I’ll only help when you ask for it, or when I really see that you need it. I won’t baby you. Of course not. But that doesn’t mean I want to see you risk your life for everything. So if you’re willing to come get stronger with me, I’ll do my best. After all, you’re the greatest warrior slug, right? You need stories to tell your fans and everyone else. So let’s explore the world for a bit before you go back, okay?”

Jien smiled as he saw tears welling up in Tyki’s eyes as the slug nodded before turning to face his master. “Master Roso… c-can I? I promise to train three times a day. I … I… promise to come back as a hero!”

Needless to say, despite a few more protestations from the larger slug, Tyki would manage to convince his master. And come mid-afternoon, Jien and Tyki would bid farewell to the large slug who seemed to simply disappear into the forest. Really mysterious. Thus, began their journey together. But first, Jien knew he had to give Tyki a few pointers about not throwing slime balls every time the slug was about to throw a tantrum.

What is Limbo Training?
This is the training that you would have gotten if you did not move on to your new character's life. Your caps are determined by your rebirthed stats. You must keep a record of your stats gained during limbo in your OCR thread. You may NOT request for an automatic rank up should you find that your new stats allow you to upgrade. Limbo training is only for people who have died in modded combat or suicide. Anyone whose character has not died is still capable of RPing that character until their OCR is finalized, and thus can train as normal.


Things you do NOT need to state, but take note of:
  • Abilities = All of your Abilities are auto-untrained upon rebirth. In order to have any Abilities for your new character, you must activate them by posting in your character’s Dojo topic in your new village.
  • Character History = By suiciding/rebirthing, you're making a new character. This means your new character must not know or remember anything of your old character's life/thoughts/feelings. If your new character has ANY direct/indirect connection to your old character, you MUST state that in your new character history write up for Admin & Village approvals. All Medical or ANBU related experience should be reflected in your history along with CA or BL influence.
  • Editing Your New Character Application = Do not edit a post you have made in your OCR. You must copy all of your information from your last post and add the changes to the new post. This is for papertrail reasons.

Things that do NOT transfer with your next character:
Please take notice of which ASP shop items that you have bought transfer with your character, and which do not.

Class looks good. So with that done, and the contract thing sorted, it looks like you're all done here.

Yen on hand: 185,300
Yen cost: 800
Yen total: 162,800 - 800 = 184,500 Yen

ASP: 770 (According to last training)
ASP Spent: 300 (Transferring Slug) & 148 (Jutsu Mastering)
ASP Total: 770 - 300 - 148 = 322 ASP
