Name: Teika Soga.
Age: Fourteen.
Physical Description: Soga is rather short compared to his fellows, though he always had been and his family seemed to just run short. They had been last in line when the gods were handing out heights. At least that's what his father always told him. He knew it was a joke, but liked to imagine all sorts of mini families lining up before growing to their normal heights. He has short reddish brown hair and bright green eyes. He wears a bandana on him at all times, mostly around his neck or on his arm and tries to keep animal treats or crackers on him when he goes out.
Mental Description: Soga is pretty sound of mind. He's very good at picking up the littlest details in things. From the wrinkle in someone's sleeve to the tiny change in pitch when they are talking. However, He misses the big things easily. While he noted the way someone twitches their nose while talking to him, he completely missed what they were telling him. He noticed the tiny squished flower ten feet away, but missed that pole he just almost walked into. He often talks to himself, or his pet squirrel. Mumbling under his breath as he analyzes a grain of rice or a rock. Despite his hyperfocus being on all the wrong things and his tendency to zone off. Soga is a pretty upbeat guy, he loves showing off and solving puzzles. He often goes from quietly mumbling to talking to someone a million miles per hour. He is very eager to meet new people, and can sometimes be described as incredibly overwhelming to them. He's not good at slowing down and has trouble picking up on social cues.
History:
Soga was born to his mother Kuroki and his father Hoshino. Hoshino came from a clan of expert trackers from a smaller village and taught Soga as much as he could about tracking, even promising to buy Soga a dog once he was older and help him train it to aid in said skill. His father was always promising things however, so he didn’t put to much stock into it. Soga loved his father, maybe even idolized him a little. He grew up happy and well kept, nothing to dramatic happening to him.
He was interested in becoming a ninja for longer than than he could remember, but the day before he was going to start his training he found an injured Oriental Tree Squirrel outside his home. He quickly found he thought helping this little guy was more important than starting his training that day. With the help of his mother and father he nursed the black and red squirrel back to health. They weren't able to save the creature’s back left leg, but otherwise he was okay. Soga named him “Ch-Chou” and hardly ever leaves him at home. He started a year late because of this, and is working hard to keep up with the kids who started on time.
