The islands in Ocean Country have been celebrating the arrival of the next Umikage, Saizo. The long bridge leading to SHIPPUUGAKURE NO SATO has been closed for outsiders because they wish to celebrate this moment with Ocean Country natives only.
As usual, the Storm Country has been hosting the Asgard Games to welcome their Kanetsukage, Cornelia. It's a double special occasion because Cornelia is also the first female Kanetsukage. She has been picked for her courage, loyalty and outstanding power by the BOUFUUGAKURE NO SATO elders.
Not only that, but the Cherry Blossom Country has become relieved as well. It seems that everyone is slowly picking up after the war now. KUSAMURAGAKURE NO SATO proudly presented their new Sakurakage, Altair.
TSUKIGAKURE NO SATO is still thriving on the merchants coming in and out. They have not experienced anything special lately. Their wealth has remained the same as they were not forced to invest into shinobi unlike the others.
On the cold isles of the Blizzard Country, HYOUGAGAKURE NO SATO has still refused to create a free traveling policy. Some habits never change. To protect their traditions, they have even warned outsiders to not interfere with their matters.
Now that everyone is picking up again, who will come out on top?

Personality: Well, for being a jinchuuriki to a calmer tailed beast, Ryujin is calmer then most. He is a bit more analytic. Soft spoken yet tends to boast on certain things regarding his poetry. He likes to solve problems and aims for a more peaceful life without worry about himself or others. A fairy tale dream yes, but that doesn't change the fact that he wants it.
When it comes to his self image he can be called partially narcissistic. Most get that from his abundant amount of confidence. He tends to push boundaries. And can even be called a radical in some perspectives. He has a strong belief in adapting to most situations. A saying he uses is "A weapon that has only one use, is useless."
Likes: Well, he is a man of trying many things. So from that he likes a lot of things. Some of those being sweet or spicy foods. He also is in love with rhythmic poetry. Upbeat music and music with great hooks or percussion. He also loves art with the use of elements. Beauty found in nature. He also loves the idea of learning from people to grow.
Dislikes: The man HATES burnt or bitter foods. They don't do a justice on his tongue. Other things he hates are bad works of art. Tacky Jewelry. He even hates the idea of merchants hustling their customers. He hates shady people. He has a strong captivation against prejudice done by any reason. He dislikes closed-minded people. Those who appose the idea of peace with greedy reasons. He also has a really deep annoyance with small implied insults. He usually laughs at large sets of insults but those small implied ones irritate him without end.
Motivation: He wants to find his real place in life. He usually tries to find that though himself. Though with Nanabi by his side he actually can harmonize better with someone with him. He looks forward to a period of pure joy and bliss. An era of no wars and endless prosperity and possibilities. He wants the world to fall back on the ways of chivalry and kindness. The world is far too underhanded and he aims to fix that. One way, or another.
Fears: Dying before he sees his dreams become a reality. He will only cope with death if he can either change the world or have somebody do it for him. He also fears that he and Nanabi won't get along. If they end up arguing it is like mental warfare. He also fears his mother's imminent death. Nanabi caused this...So it is rather complicated due to the fact that it caused him grief, yet Ryujin wants to move past that. Showing Ryujin's maturity level.
History:
How He Was Concived:
Ryujin Takashi, born to Tokomo Mitsubishi and Ryuden Takashi. Both chuunin. Both specialized in one style. His mother Tokomo was an amazing weapons user for her time. Ryuden was an insane masochist that used Taijutsu on an above chuunin level. They had Ryujin when Ryuden was 25 and Tokomo 23. Ryujin wasn't planned however. The abrupt pregnancy was a turning point for them. Since they didn't want to leave their boy alone without a sort of guidance, they decided to take c and D rank missions whenever they had to. Some village called this "cowardice" or "selfishness". They thought of it as being responsible. They taught the boy about the basics in weapons and told them about how he was. Ryuden saw his barrel chest in the soild child. Tokomo saw the shine in his eyes. Showing that he should be perceptive. At least that's what infant superstitions were. They placed three things in front of the boy when he could crawl. A wooden kunai, a mini wok, and a capped pen. The boy, being incredibly greedy as a kid grabbed them all. Effectively ruining his parent's intentions to find out what he wanted to be. They however, used this as a good way to see the boy's interests. Feeding him foods of different styles. The boy's favorite was spicy curry ramen and sweet dango.
Pre Academy:
Young, misguided, and happy. Ryujin around this time was a rather....oblivious for even a child. 5 years old and soon about to begin to actually learn of his surroundings. The boy was relatively normal. He was solid for his age. His size wasn't imposing, yet it had some sort of talent in it. It was just too soon to see it. He would normally watch the older Moku train with his Kekkei Genkai. He admired his ability yet was frightened about the idea of actual bones. He would learn a bit from sight. Just getting basic ideas of shinobi from it. He even tried to copy his movements. To no avail mind you. The boy at this point is rather clumsy. Tripping as he steps or pulling a muscle when he kicks. The boy had a role model at this point. Mokuntaku. He had a gauge of power some to come. Who is it? That's right, Mokuntaku.
Academy Days:
Though the boy had no blood line traits, he had a sort of handicap on his sessions. To build on himself however he began to train after school for about 6 hours for 6 days a week. He had rigorous training in Jeet Kune Do, Light water manipulation, and target practice. At this point with his years of Jeet Kune Do, he gained a great amount of reaction time. Since Jeet Kune Do is based interrupting on coming attacks. His accuracy at this time was pretty good! 97% on standing targets. 80% On moving targets. With his ninjutsu practice he could make large, yet fragile works of art. Made by water. He had great control by holding the water in this shape using his chakra. He continued with this regimine getting harder and harder by the year. Since he was in the academy since he was 10, he got 4 years of awesome working. His graduation scores were pretty good. Not the highest in the class yet he held a good position. Though Moku was already a genin at this time, Ryujin knew he was going to try to close the gap. Which would be really hard due to their age gap. So he didn't celibrate his standing in the class. Even there he was shown to score proficient in most. Though his since of Teamwork, Ninjutsu,Bukijutsu, and Taijutsu where his high points. And his Genjutsu being barely existent. He had passable chakra control and a good amount of chakra reserves due to his body's natural talents. He scored 5th in his class. The highest in Teamwork and Ninjutsu. He was on a sup par level with about everything when he left. His graduation age was 12.
Genin Sealing Bio:
One day, a vicious attack done by the now rampant Nanabi. His parents, and most of the village combated this suiton Fiend. Though the toll on the village wasn't much, the cost of subduing the beast Nanabi for a small fraction of time, the boy's parent's. They are now crippled. Due to them being nearly killed by the Nanabi. His father is bed ridden. His body only working from the neck up. His mother, only half way mobile. Her movements are nearly brought to about 25% Her walking speed. As the boy at this time, the ripe age of 14, he was the main candidate for the sealing of the tailed monster. Why was this chosen? It was because of his bloodline. Or lack there of. The village had nothing to lose if the boy died in the risky sealing process. If it went wrong, he would have been killed. By the beast, his bodies limitations, or the sealers themselves. The sealing was a success. Though, the boy was put into a light comatose state for about a month. As his body healed he faced a course of violent, malevolent,and truly hateful encounters with the beast in his coma state. His parents were powerless in the choice of their son and his coma state. As he awoken from his coma, he had only one person in his corner at this time. His mother. The only person that could actually walk to the office and actually see him. Though this was the first time he saw his mother ever since the incident with the sealings he was over joyed. Being trapped in a cycle of nightmares. As he saw the state of parent's he broke down. A non tailed-beast-induced rage. This caused the village ANBU to detain him for 3 days. On day one the tolad him what had happened to his parents. This caused the boy to cry near instantly. Imagine the one thread attached to family, nearly die. No. They are alive, yet not able to actually do what they want anymore. The next day the pointed out the beast inside of him. The large seal now engraved on the boy's stomach. It pulsates every few seconds. Showing that it was two entity's in one body. Ryujin, and Nanabi. This was a huge pain because the tailed beast still had a bit of malice in it. Using the boy's frail mind set to torment him. The third day they told him of the connection him and the beast had. A body and shared mindset. This meant that Nanabi, due to his long line of wisdom, could trick the boy easily. The Anbu told him never to fall for the beasts temptations. Not even if he truly needed it. The boy would oblige and was released from the office. He would follow these orders untill later in time. He thus begun his chuunin exam training. now at the ripe age of 15 and a half and saw Moku become a chuunin. This burnt him more. He kept getting annoyed by the fact that Moku is still ahead. so he pushed his training harder. He furthered it more and more. His accuracy near pin point at this time. His body now sculpted into a well oiled machine. He could already do 300 push ups in one setting. A good thing for endurance. In the first round of the exams, he breezed through them. The second round had him on a par level. And the final match nearly ruined him. Luckily the boy heard something Nanabi had been saying. Mixing Suiton and his attacks. He began to use the water and projectiles in conjunction. Using water traps and large set ups quite fast. He barely became a chuunin. So he decided he was going to have to learn more. Take up another set of jutsu. Take up a different style.
Chuunin Time Period:
Fresh from the exams, the boy had to relax for about 4 days because of how much he pushed himself. The first day he had a long conversation with his father. His father now crippled, couldn't really do much. His organs failing. This caused the boy to almost rage. But the boy used discipline he learned to not go that far. He listened and his father pointed to a book on the nearest shelf. The book was on his fatheer's style of Taijutsu. Though it was Jeet Kune Do, it had the philosophy about it in it. He nodded and took the boo for himself. His father proud that his son became a Chuunin soo fast. A great testament to his natural skill. His boy didn't even use his bijuu. The next day, he talks to his mother. His mother explains to him his father's condition. How the waves snapped the man's spine. He was lucky to even be alive for this long. His mother's condition was rather different. She lost a lot of mobility due to the nerve damage she got from the brute force. She will slowly begin to lose all feeling in her body. And soon after, her body will almost be paralyzed due to the muscle tissue being damaged. Her condition can't be reversed. The damage a constant reminder of their short comings. The next day Ryujin remained alone. Trying to regain his composure due to his parent's pain. He began to write poetry. Poetry to let his pain leave him. Nanabi was astonished by his raw talent with his words. How they flowed like water yet hit like bullets on the cranium. The began to start talking then. Nanabi consoled the boy. It was the beast's fault for the pain that the boy had. Though Nanabi was pretty wise and rational. Nanabi actually felt guilty for doing this to a boy that didn't deserve this. So what did the Suiton Fiend do? He tried to befriend the boy. This however, caused the boy much disdain. The inner hate from the pain the beast caused the boy to instantly flare up. He screamed at the beast. What did the do that was so surprising? He let the boy yell. He let the boy take it all out. Nanabi's wise-ness kicked in. He could understand his pain. After the boy was done, the beast apologized. Though in a really smart mouthed way. This caused a small childish argument to begin between them. After they flared down again, the beast admired the boy's poetry talent. They clicked after this. They shared a lot in common. They both loved the idea of learning, poetry, and works of art. This brought them to acquaintance. They continued to talk like this to each other for years to come. The final day was a day wasted on pure sleep. Ryujin had a lot to think to himself about. Later on the boy began to train with Katon and Kenjutsu. Katon was easy to him due to the fact he had already a good grasp on liquid. So gas should come natural. He used it at a good level. Able to already form various shapes with it due to his chakra control. He had a good grasp of weapons use with Bukijutsu. So the use of Kenjutsu fit his close range attack game. He would use Jeet Kune Do to flow with his blade. This rounded him more and gave him a large strength boost due to his near constant training. He even had came up with some new strategies. He continued to pursue moving onward. Not stopping where his parents were. He wouldn't give up. Nanabi cared too much about the boy secretly to let him quit now. The beast caused so much damage to him so he might want to spur him in the right direction. So Nanabi acted like Ryu's guardian angel...er demon. The boy hadn't been really been with Nanabi long...so he was blind by the influence at first. But due to him actually speaking to him he caught on fast. Ryujin thanked the beast. Actually, he did more. He actually cried in front of it. This humbled the beast greatly. A boy whom he barely even known yet he cared for it like a child.Thus, a connection was made. Though they started on the wrong foot a near instant friendship was made from an act of kindness.
Special Jounin Induction:
Ryujin was elected into the Special Jounin position. He wasn't considered a jounin do to his youth. He decided to let his abilities grow more as he got older. This ment that he would train 11 hours a day for 5 days a week. From there he had gotten at a proficient level of Kenjutsu. His accuracy pin pointed already. His Suiton jutsu more potent. And a good grasp of Katon. He saw how Moku had grown so he decided to spy on him as he trained. He began to use Moku to gauge himself. He smirked as he began to take A-rank missions. On one of the A-rank missions, his eye got burnt off. Causing him to tap into the beast's power by shear rage. The attacker was killed brutally by a one tail form. They eye however was too far gone. So he was rushed to the village. They had to place a cosmetic eye. This eye is of robotic technology that has a built in scope. This adds to his Bukijutsu, but he can't remove the cold metal from his face. Light can tend to agitate his eyes. He saw the good in this however. The scope lets him see about a kilometer away. They color is stuck to a vivid green in his scope eye. Making him have to close it if he wants to see colors in his right eye. Nanabi was more enraged at the thought that Ryujin let himself get hit. This caused a slight arguement between them. They act mature but in this moment they yelled like children. The both came with sharp insults and funny comebacks. Like a game of street fighter. Anyways they argued like best friends do when one eats the last cookie. They were going to continue until they began to think of what they said, and near instantly doubled over with laughter. Though, like the biggnings of friendships, they usually start like this.
It All Comes Crashing Down:
The death of his father happened on a cool summer day. Ryujin was 17 at the time. This fast end to his father hurt him inside. His mother said he died happily. Knowing he became a special jounin. But that wasn't enough for Ryujin. Ryujin built a shrine to his father. With this, the book he gave him and a pitcure of him. With this he lived by the words in the book the philosophy done by Bruce Lee.
"Be formless, shapeless, like water. You put water in a bottle it becomes the bottle. You put water into a tea cup it becomes the tea cup. Water can flow, or it can crash. Be like water my friend." - Bruce Lee
He used this quote to learn to adapt. He pushes his boundaries for his father's sake. To make him proud. And if his mother might face the same fate... He must stay strong for them. He must persue his true strength. A strength that he doesn't even know yet. He and Nanabi at this point have a heart to heart again. Throughout the few years Nanabi saw Ryujin go through, he felt truly bad. He caused a boy who was irrelevant too much pain. But by now, Ryujin had matured a bit more. Not letting the pain eat at him. He forgave the beast for it's impact on his life. He hadn't really been too much of a bother. Nanabi is just very nosy however. A sad thig to say for a wise beast that is sort of like a fathering voice to Ryujin. They put all the things they had behind them. And started fresh. Wanting both impacts they caused on each other not to hold any true weight. They were going to have to share a body for the rest of Ryujin's natural life, so they had to get along. Thank the heavens Nanabi is wise.
His relationship with the beast:
Nanabi and Ryujin share a mutuality. A give and take relationship that builds to this day. Nanabi adds a bit of it's chakra to Ryujin's chakra. Mixing it. Causing Ryujin's reserves to grow constantly with the beast. They are now quite close. Not to the point where they fully trust one another, but they are good friends. Poetry and art are things they usually converse about. Nanami makes Ryujin's suiton stronger. Ryujin indulges Nanabi with poetry.
Promotion :
Now, Ryujin may be a young shinobi, he still deserves a chance at something great. Ryujin soon walked into the Kage's office one afternoon. The young man stood towards the desk. Scared to hear what was going to happen. He was getting a promotion. A promotion to kage's assistant. A good and honest job. It's just.....incredibly boring. The pay is great at a month to month of 50,000 ryo. The boy took the job since he could possibly learn from it and could make some money. A good idea in his book, yes? Now slowly getting accustomed to his new job, Ryujin sits in the Kage's chair, the Kage absent and sighs.
"Looks like I got a village to run...."
He looks onward to the vast piles of work. His forehead sweating lightly.
RP Sample:
~You Dun Fucked Up!~ The boy stood in pure awe. His sister's corpse. The utterly disgusting man in front of him. The rage that he couldn't do anything about it. This burned the boy like catching a STD from a unprotected whore. He began to burn. Hate. Fear. Rage. His two tomoe mutated into it's third tomoe shape. This is a fully matured Sharingan. The crimson red. The reborn look. The crimson light from them caused the porcilain mask of a face to contort. He simply stared. His hands gripped hard. A single drop of blood dripped from them. The drop was thick. Red. Drissiling down his gloves to their knuckles. The blood began to pool there. This was used by him to lure the man. As shown the man seems to be cannibalistic. A severe sence of dread crossed his person. His three tomoe spun fast. If this stare could kill, they would have been shooting lasers at the killer of his sister. He screamed on the top of his lungs. His natural purple aura corsing his body. This was malevolent. This was evil. This, was true wrath.
"I WILL FUCKING.....KILL YOU!"
The voice of the boy....Quite desperate. His blood roar was rippled. The soft lavender voice the boy had was no more. His voice became of gravel. His mentality? To revenge.
~The Maturity of Dojutsu!~
The boy had a carzed stare. He stood. The blood dried. His eyes, glassed over. Something was going on inside of him. His Senju and Uchiha cells were at war. He spat a single clot of blood towards the ground. He seems lightly rejuvenated from the mutation of his eyes. With the chakra he regained from making his clones dissappear, the boy was hardened. He saw the world now at 25% speed. Making the world an almost drone. He could keep up with Raiton:Armour alone now. A great feat for a genin to do. He weaved his hands into the following seal sequence. Starting with a single normal clone seal. The clone stepped behind the real Riku. Next, the real Riku performs the Ox → Monkey → Hare → Rat → Boar → Bird → Ox → Horse → Bird → Rat → Tiger → Dog → Tiger → Snake → Ox → Ram → Snake → Boar → Ram → Rat → Yang Water → Monkey → Bird → Dragon → Bird → Ox → Horse → Ram → Tiger → Snake → Rat → Monkey → Hare → Boar → Dragon → Ram → Rat → Ox → Monkey → Bird → Yang Water → Rat → Boar → Bird seal sequence. This was Suiton: Suiryūdan no Jutsu. A B-rank move. With his powered reserves from the mutation and the earlier clones additions, the boy made the jutsu perfectly. In the most balenced way possible. The seal sequence only took 3 seconds. This was made faster because of his Sharingan eyes already thinking the next seal. Plus his hands had natural dexterity. As the roaring rappid of the Dragon began it's route to the cannibalistic male, it opened the water pathways under the ground under it's path.
~Time to See a Death Tactic. "Great World Leveling."~
-The clone behind the boy smirked as he made a small visible patch to the underground water ways. He smirked as he placed the hip pouch on his side inside the hole while turning the water down. The pouch unraveled as the explosive notes and flare bombs were free to roam in just a second. The clone reversed the water's current as the 50 explosive tags and 3 flare bombs went around the whole area. If there was a way to dodge this, it would be to get off of the ground. If the male stays on the ground, the explosion will damage, but the ground will cave in. Causing the male's body to be obbliterated. The only way to dodge this was to get high in the air. And with the water dragon homing in on the man, this was going to be no easy task.
~Trap Game.~
Riku made his clone dissappear as he leapt into the air. He was high. The boy performed another sequence. The man should now be seeing the Water dragon. The Ram-->Tiger sequence was made in half a second do to their closeness in shape. This was Suiton: Mizuame Nabara. This next action, was bullet fast. The boy shot the sticky ball of liquid down towards the man as fast as a bullet. He then nodded to his friend. Attempting to tell him to jump. If the sticky ball were to hit, the initail impact would most likely floor a man his opponetnt's size. The stick ball would keep him there. On the ground. Ready to be detonated. If this dosen't hit however, the ball would have a harder impact on the ground. Shaking it. Causing the man to possibly trip. The notes and bombs would remain intact however.
~The Final Flash.~
The boy with or without his friend would perform the snake seal. Causing the ground to detonate. This was a tactic that was original to him. This tactic was called Great Earth Leveling. The collapse effect on the ground would instantly happen after the heay explosion. This had a eigth the potency of a Nuclear bomb. Counting the possible Earth crush damage. This, was a killing attack attempt. This attack was to finish this. The boy would smirk as the blast effect would send him higher into the air. This could be deadly to both the foe and his friend. If the other boy didn't get his hint to jump, then the boy should die then. Since he couldn't see the hint. The attack will cause the plains to turn into what looks like a meteor crash site.
~Now...The Final Flash.~

Your history reaches the requirements, just know that tailed beasts have a system to them. It can be found here in the bijuu section, make sure to look it over if you have not already.
As far as fixing your application, the needed changes are thus.
Personality has to be at least two full paragraphs. We like out members to have characters that are well developed after all.
Likes, dislikes, ect. All these need to be at least one full paragraph each, and not in the form of lists obviously. 4-5 sentences at least.
Once the changes are made, post a bump stating that you have indeed made the needed changes, and your application will be looked over once again.
