Name: Sang Taeyong 상태용
Age: 14
Gender: Male
Sex: Male
Personality: Taeyong is not a nice individual. He is often described as cold, stubborn, and unpleasant. He doesn't care for these descriptions of him, and he doesn't deny them either. He does not believe in "friends," people are allies or acquaintances at most. He isn't arrogant, however, he does not view all people as useless, in fact people are very important to him to exploit. This does, however, cause him to view people like stats, evaluating their strengths and weaknesses and treating in accordance to that. Those who he perceives to be too weak to use he will often ignore, or even be downright harsh if they are persistent. Those who he believes can be of some use are treated with a level of respect, even "kindness" if he thinks they can be really useful.
His status in his clan gives him a great sense of pride, but also stress and expectation. As a potential heir to his branch lead he acts noble, but in reality he simply feels like he must be superior to everyone. Taeyong has no real feelings on genders or gender roles. He is often mistaken as a girl, and he doesn't correct people. Whether male or female, if you're useful then it doesn't matter, and if you're not, then you're trash either way. Some have mistakenly viewed his outlook as incredibly respectful, but in reality he simply views everyone as objects to further his own ambitions.
Appearance: Taeyong is described as a man with a slender figure and a handsome face. He has a significantly youthful appearance, short in height with dark navy blue hair that covers his ears and dark blue-lit eyes with bold red eyeliner. His attire is consists of black shorts and black sandals, and a large hat with four upwards-curving hooks along the circumference, and what seems to be his mask on the center. Two ornamental accessories hang from red threads attached to the back of his hat. At the back of his hat hangs a translucent black veil separated into two, with brown swirls near the bottom. His overall attire resembles traditional Japanese or Chinese wear.
History/Inuzuka App: Taeyong belongs to a strange clan within fire country. This clan's structure is somewhat different, instead of being a main banch and side branch, there doesn't seem to be a true head. Instead, each branch has their own head that makes up a sort of Clan Council. The branches are quite similar to other Inuzuka clans, but instead of dogs or even animals, they act as protectors and bridges between the primal elements and this world. Each clan named after the original five elemental inuzuka, five siblings who began the clan. Each clan represents the five elements often utilized by the shinobi of the world. Taeyong belongs to the Lightning Branch.
On top of the individual businesses that many people within the clans have Taeyong's father, Taeyang, is a jounin and his mother, Soojung, is a was a chuunin but later retired once their second child was born. Taeyong is the third and youngest child, the eldest being his sister 5 years his elder, Taeyeon, and his brother being 3 years older, Taehyun. Their family, being the head within their branch, was certainly far more privileged than many others, part of why they hold themselves to a much higher standard than others. Typically the family head is the eldest of a set of siblings, so obviously Taeyeon got a lot more attention than the other two siblings, especially once she received her companion and started her training. This built some animosity between the siblings, especially from Taeyong.
Growing up Taeyong could never tell if people wanted to get close to him because he came from money and power, so he constantly distanced himself from his peers. This, however, was a lonely existence, so instead of staying alone, he would begin evaluating people to see if he could use them for anything. At a young age it wasn't incredibly deep, but he found some level of entertainment from people. He never kept people around for long, however, if they could no longer entertain him he didn't need to be around them anymore.
In the academy Taeyong excelled in Taijutsu, was ok at Ninjutsu, and didn't focus much on Genjutsu. As his clan was lightning focused he began his training with lightning Taijutsu, attempting to appease the primal energies. Taeyong worked hard during his academy years, he was under a lot of pressure from his father to do well. Just because he wasn't the direct heir doesn't mean he can slack, for the pride of the clan is always on the line.
Upon reaching genin he was to go through the ritual done by each branch of their clan, though each branch had their own unique spin. Taeyong was taken up to the highest point within fire country, on a dark and stormy day, and left there. This may seem cruel, and it was, but his father and his siblings had each survived the trial themselves. The point of the trial was to survive the storm for however long it lasted, could be a day, a week or even a month. Taeyong's storm lasted two weeks. His academy teachings helped, but he wasn't really trained for wilderness survival. He didn't have to worry to much about the wildlife, in the middle of the storm they didn't really bother coming out to hunt him, but he also needed a place to rest.
During the trial lightning struck near him, he could feel the electricity in his bones and it was too fast to react to. When the lightning struck there was a tiny spark, like a creature made of the electricity left behind, that seemed to take a liking to Taeyong. The creature began to speed a way, goading Taeyong to follow. Taeyong didn't know at the time, but the creature was actively drawing him away from spots where lightning would strike next. Taeyong was able to find hiding animals and hunt for food, though he had to survive on heavily burnt meat since he had no idea how to actually cook. The rainfall provided plenty of water to survive. The real trial was bonding with the little spirit, and upon the end of the storm it stuck around. Like his father and his siblings before him, this little spirit became his companion.
