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?

Gender: Male Age: 10 Years of Age Height: 5'6" Feet Weight: 133 Pounds Birthday: December 13th Sexuality: Heterosexual Relationships: Mother(Deceased), Father(Clan Head), Older Brother(Branch Member)
Affiliation: Tsukigakure no Sato Rank: Genin Element(s): Raiton Specialization(s): Taijutsu, Ninjutsu
Personality: Surai is very calm, and very quiet. He often talks, but does so in a quiet voice and tone that holds warmth and gentleness. Don't let this fool you, as behind this is a sharp and cunning mind analyzing what he sees, and postulating ideas of use. He is very well mannered, and follows etiquette in any scenario as is required of a Hyuga. When in a combat scenario, he becomes very focus and his demeanor is changed, as he becomes very strict, more so than normal, as he always holds a modicum of steel in his stance, adopted from exposure to his clan.
[Likes: Surai enjoys training, and will often spend the bulk of his time doing so, perfecting his skills and testing out new techniques. He will often be found meditating in a peaceful environment, as he enjoys the quiet and time alone, as he organizes his thoughts and goals. He will also be found with his family, specifically more often with his Older Brother. He also enjoys learning in general, and might be found in the library reading scrolls on a host of topics from strategy to the other nations.
Dislikes: Surai extremely dislikes those who rush headfirst into a situation, and those who don't think first before acting, commonly referred to as by him - idiots. He also dislikes pranksters, seeing them as time wasters who would better serve their time training and bettering themselves then making a mockery of everything, and just being plain fools. He hates having to be forced to take risks, unnecessary or not, as he'd rather not leave things up to fate. He secretly hates the Main Family, and what they do to the Branch family, what they've done to his Brother, and what they 'Would've' done to him.
Motivation: He strives to become stronger so he could become the 'proper' heir the Hyuga Clan wants. He strives to change the Main Branch policies, and to free, or at the very least, give some freedom to the Branch Family. He also strives to strengthen his Clan Techniques, and to create new ones.
Fears: He fears to die, without ever accomplishing his goals. He fears to fail everyone's expectations of him, and his own of himself. He fears he will betray his brother's sacrifice. He fears he won't be able to accomplish anything.
Bloodline Name: Byakugan
[b]Bloodline Ability:
Ability:
The Hyūga are renowned for possessing the highly coveted Byakugan, a kekkei genkai feared for the great visual prowess that it grants its wielder. The first ability of the Byakugan gives the user a near 360º field of vision, except for one blind spot at the back of the neck above the third thoracic vertebra. The second ability is being able to see through solid objects, and can use a degree of telescopic sight. The distance and the degree of telescopic sight varies from person to person, and can be improved. However, the Byakugan cannot see through certain barriers, such as the Four Black Fog Battle Formation. The third and one of the greatest uses of the Byakugan is the ability to see chakra, its flow, as well as the chakra circulation system inside the body with great detail.
Members of the clan are instructed in the use of the Gentle Fist style, which uses the Byakugan to view the opponent's Chakra Pathway System and deal precise blows to disable and impede the flow of chakra. Due to training in this style, Hyūga clan members tend to have excellent chakra control. This is emphasised in techniques that utilise this chakra control, as well as the nuances of the Gentle Fist Art.
It is said that this clan possesses more than one kekkei genkai, one of which grants them the ability to expel chakra from every tenketsu in their body, allowing them to fully utilise chakra with attacks.
Location: Tsukigakure
Clan History:
History:
The Hyūga clan is one of the five noble clans of Tsukigakure, the others being: Kyuketsuki, Hachurui, Ookami, and Metarumasuta. All members born into this clan possess the Byakugan, a kekkei genkai that gives them extended fields of vision and the ability to see through solid objects and even the chakra circulatory system, amongst other things, and expel chakra from any of the tenketsu in their body.
While not much is known of the clan's background, they are considered to be one of, if not currently, the most powerful clan in Tsukigakure. Their notoriety and prowess stretches far and wide, leading others to both praise and covet their abilities. During the latest Shinobi World War, an enemy-nin noted that they had a hard time against them during a previous war.
The clan is separated into two parts, the main house (Sōke) and the branch house (Bunke), a system that protects the secrets of the Byakugan from outsiders. The main house runs the family while the branch house protects it. The members of the branch house are branded with a cursed seal upon the third birthday of the heir to the main house. This seal gives the main house members absolute control over the branch members, because they can destroy the branch members' brain cells with a simple hand seal, or cause them great pain to punish them. This seal also makes sure the secret of the Hyūga's Byakugan is safe, because it seals the Byakugan after the wearer of the seal dies. Because they are essentially servants, simply because of their birth order or heritage, some branch house members are hostile to those of the main house.
History: Surai Hyuga was born on a very harsh winter night, the full forces of nature heralding his arrival into the world, a blizzard encompassing the village of Tsukigakure no Sato. He was a very lucky child, as most second born Hyugas would be fated to be marked with the Caged Bird Seal, and cast into the Branch Family. His fate was not so. His older brother of many years was a very gentle youth, very compassionate. After years of seeing the abuse and neglect those of the Branch Family received, he couldn't even conceive of the possibility of condemning his little brother to this fate. So in an act that would forever change Surai's fate, he ceded his right of Clan Heir to his brother, taking upon himself the Caged Bird Seal, against much outrage and opposition. And so Surai Hyuga escaped a fate worse than death.
Surai was a very quiet child, not in his words, of which he was very well spoken, but in his tone, being very calm and peaceful. He looked upon the world with an avid curiosity and need to learn. He excelled in his studies and training, surprising those who opposed him succeeding as heir with his talent and grasp of the Juken, and the Byakugan. He unlocked his sight with it at a very young age, and his sight with it was very extraordinary. With his apparent prodigious ability, the opposition to him becoming the Heir died down, and the whole matter was soon forgotten, alongside his brother. While many forgot him, seeing him as another Branch Servant, Surai and His brother were very close, and would often be with eachother. They connected on a spiritual level, and were inseparable. Surai comprehended the conditions of his brother and other Branch Members,, and was abhorred with this. Confessing to his brother his thoughts, he was given support in this thought, being told this was why his brother sacrificed himself for Surai. With this in mind, Surai grew determined to change the structure of the clan. He knew he had to be strong to become the clan head, and so he threw himself into his training and learning, astounding his instructors, who were already shocked by his ability.
Several years passed, and he entered the Academy. He quickly outstripped the others of the class, further cementing his title of Prodigy. In the class, he drew the attention of the prankster Sukichi, who disliked his serious outlook and confident personality, and named himself his rival. Many a time he would try to fight Surai or prank him, only to be thwarted. Surai often goaded him by calling his foolishness out, and his idiotic tenancies, aggravating Sukichi every time. One night there was an attack on the Hyuga Clan Compound, an attempt to kidnap several of the Hyuga children to steal the Kekkei Genkai. There was a fierce battle, and the very first of Surais. His guards were dispatched, and he was beset by a pair of the attackers. Being underestimated due to his age, he took them down with some fight. He then went around to help the battle, thwarting the catching of several of the other children, and the dispatching of several of the attackers. He the found himself separated from the other Hyuga, and surrounded by several of the remaining attackers bent on getting some revenge for their losses. He put up a valiant fight, but soon found himself nearing the end of his endurance. With little hope left, he went to fight with his last breath. Then when he was almost unconscious, his mother came, a fury and wrathful force to the attackers. She took down many, but was hit by a stray attack. The would-be kidnappers fled upon the arrival of more Hyuga forces, but they were too late, as Surai's mother was already dying, too far along. With her last breath she spoke of her love to her family.
Surai grieved for many months, before finding his conviction again, promising he would never let this happen again, and to protect his family, to protect his Clan. He soon returned to his training with a burning passion unseen in him before, the desire to grow stronger clear. The Academy graduation soon drew near, and they were all tested on their skills and ability. While very intelligent, Surai used everything within his power to succeed the test, such as his Byakugan to scope out the answer for the written portion ahead of time, and also playing upon his classmates, so they were against each other and not him when their was a tournament for Taijutsu, and lostfocus upon him. He passed with flying colors, and was named 'Rookie of the Year', and was assigned to his squad, hopeful of his future.
RP Sample:
The Mock Battle:
Surai Activated his Byakugan, scanning the environment before deactivating it just as quickly, conserving his energy. "There are three targets approaching from the west at fast speeds. They should be here within ten minutes" he informed his mock team for the simulation. "Tanken, stay on the ground and draw them into Taijutsu, and focus their attention onto you" said person nodded. "Hori, stay atop the trees, keep them at a range. I want you to lay a Genjutsu over them to slow their perception of time, overlay it with another if you have to. Give some ranged support with Shurikenjutsu, but conserve your Chakra in case we are Injured." She gave an affirmative. "I will stay in the shadows and attack their flanks once they are engaged, and take them out quickly". At this they all Dispersed, and set to their tasks.
Soon the other squad was upon them, and they two of them engaged Tanken below in Taijutsu, while their other Comrade went through handsigns preparing a Jutsu. Surai quickly came upon him, disrupting his Chakra System and leaving him unable to fight. His teamates did not notice, as they were having trouble landing a hit on Tanken due to the Genjutsu that slowed their perception, so Surai prepared the next phase of their plan.
"Byakugan" Surai whispered, feeding Chakra towards his Eyes. He quickly took his enemies Chakra systems into consideration, Cataloging the Location of their Tenketsu points, and then he jumped onto the forest floor below. "You are within range of my Divination. 8 Trigrams, 32 Palms" He spoke aloud, frightening his opponents even more. He dashed in, closing their Tenketsu, leaving them severely weakened. He then used the Gentle Fist and neutralized them before his allies joined him on the forest floor. Surai walked over to one of them and opened one of his pouches, taking a scroll. He opened it and read the contents. "Hmmm.... it seems we are to report to the third tower of the cliff and report our 'Mission', and then go and relieve the defending force at the ravine." he burned the scroll with a very low level Kaaton Jutsu. "Take a Minute to recuperate, and then we'll be setting off." He smirked slightly. This mock simulation had been a radical success, and that was expected. He had honored his Clan, and proved their superiority. His father would be pleased, and he was one step closer to his goal, as far away as that was...

I guess i'm just waiting to be approved? (Note: I'm working on making an image for a FC, so that's a work in progress for now, otherwise i'm completely done for this part.)
Colors? What is that? Also, what is the process now for buying my skills, where do i go to post?(I know I have 6000 Experience to buy them, and that as a Genin, i can't buy a Soul Stat above C-Rank.) I know i read it somewhere, i just don't remember.
