Test Drive

Okay everyone, it's time to test some people out! The rules of the game are simple. You have a character you would like to try out as a native to the setting of this game. You want to see if this is the right setting to play said character in, right? Well, then all you have to do is drop them into this post as a top level comment with this as the header: Character name | Series (OC's just put Original here) | Planned Village Affiliation Then you comment around and play with everyone else! If you need some ideas on how to get started, you can drop your character in during the middle of a mission, have them at an eatery around their village, or maybe even just doing weapons practice. It's up to you how you want to set out, so feel free to put your characters in this version of the Naruto universe however it most seems appropriate. Just be sure to say where you put them somewhere in your post though, otherwise two people might not even be threading in the same country. One last thing! Remember that your character was born in this universe, so whatever else you decide, your character is a world native, even if they might be a tourist in the village you decided to test them out on. And that's it. Just be good to each other and have fun! Threads you do here can count toward future activity checks, so long as the person you're threading with gets in too. These threads can also be used for samples on your application.

"You get a deeper and more forceful breath, and it helps with your chakra circulation." Deep breathing was a good thing to practice anyway, as was almost religious stretching routines to unkink everything that got kinked when bouncing off ceilings and slamming into walls.

"Now...the most important thing in a fire jutsu isn't the heat or the distance, but being able to balance control with power. Fire is, in its nature, destructive and greedy, so as long as your provide it with fuel it will damage and kill. In a place like Konoha, and when in a fight with allies, fire can be more detrimental than anything else. You should always focus more on control in a fire jutsu and know your limits. Duration is also important. Hair will catch fire quickly, and skin burns easily, but most clothing takes a few second longer to catch, or a hotter flame." Itachi realized he was rambling. As fire jutsu were one of his clan's trademarks, he'd grown up hearing discussions on them and could get carried away.

"It's mostly practice and observation, which are unfortunately things you have to do for yourself." Which made Itachi a rather ineffective teacher. Go forth and burn things and call it training. "Sorry, I'm not very much help."

Practice and observation... That really wasn't helpful at all. In fact it prompted a sigh from her, though she nodded regardless to show that she understood. Practice and observation, huh...

Hmm...

"Show me."

Itachi wondered how watching someone else would help with a jutsu. It helped him because he could see a memorize what was done both in hand signs and chakra. "What do you want to see?" He had offered to help, and since he wasn't doing a very good job of it, he was willing to take suggestions.

"Just a fire jutsu. Something you want to do," She shrugged, making to seat herself on a nearby rock as she waited expectantly. He said that observation would help, so maybe if she watched how it was done properly, she'd get a better idea of how to do it herself. Sure, she didn't have a fancy doujutsu or anything to help her learn techniques, but that didn't mean her observation skills were anything to be discounted.

It might not have been the best idea, but it was worth a shot.
