Name: Nara Shishiwakamaru
Age: 11
Physical Description:
Standing at a whopping 152 cm tall and weighing in at just around 80 pounds, that's 36 kilos-ish? Anyway, His bound, slightly spikey hair was black, this was his usual go-to hairstyle. His out comprised of a zip-able ivory-esk jacket with an archaic Nara clan symbol on the back. His trousers were blue and his feet came equipped with some standard shinobi sandals. He wears his father's Leaf headband protector, which he wraps around one of his sleeves, to serve as a reminder . Shishiwakamaru could usually be seen wearing a flat expression, as if he was bored, or the world was just as grey as the shadows his clan was known for. To be fair though, how would you express yourself when your father was burned
Mental Description:
What is there to say? He's just an average kid, nothing special or extra ordinary. Average grades, average abilities. This was exactly how Shishiwakamaru saw himself. It wasn't necessarily meant to be taken negatively or anything. It's just how it was for him. He never really got excited, truly anyway. He could feel it, he knew he was looking forward to something, whatever it may be. But showing it was somewhat difficult. Thus his other emotions followed suit. He never really got angry, or at least the yelling type. Level headed and calm, a good kid. He was just, ya know... Average.
History/Bloodline Application:
Ugh, history was never Shishiwakamaru's strong suit. Even when it came down to his own clan. They had a special forest for themselves, were really good with medicine and healing stuff. The Nara clan has a special relationship with the Akimichi and the Yamanaka clan. For several generations, members of these three families have formed "Ino–Shika–Chō" squads named after the first part of the names of the members with the Nara members being the "Shika" in the trio. He really hoped he didn't end up in some cliché group like that though. The Nara were also meant to be pretty smart, but he didn't notice himself being any smarter than the other kids from school. Perhaps that was just some more negative self talk generated from the depression that followed the death of his father.
Aside from that stuff there was the obvious, shadow jutsu. We're able to manipulate the shadows around us and use them to fight with. His father hadn't gotten around to teaching him any of the clan's secret jutsu, but that was fine with Shishiwakamaru. Shadow junk wasn't even that cool anyway. As for his family life, it wasn't that interesting either. Shishiwakamaru was an only child. His mother was absent from the picture having left him and his father when he was only a few months old. Dad was to busy and never payed him much mind either, unless it was get your homework done or get your chores done, or come to dinner. At least that's what it was like. After the incident at the gate things were never the same. His life would drastically change forever more. As a result from having no next of kin, his mother being gone and his father now brutally murdered by hellfire, he was sent to the local orphanage. Fortunally all was not lost as he was still chakra sensitive. An unknown benefactor (Asuka) began to pay for his schooling so he could attend the Konaha Academy to learn and train to be a shinobi. This was something he would relish as it would equip him with the tools to find the monster that took his father's life.
