Test Drive Post!

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.

Karin | Naruto | Uzushio

[sensethis]

For the beginning of spring the weather was surprisingly beautiful. Not uncharacteristically warm, but warmer than one might have expected depending on where they were from. And for whatever reason her aunt had felt the need to forcefully push her out of the village to get some "air". The village was by the sea she didn't understand how she didn't get enough "air" already.

Mumbling she huffs out a breath as she starts walking on a path that would take her on a wide loop around the village and take most of the day to complete. She had work to do, a fact that crossed her mind frequently as she watched the ground beneath her feet, her arms crossed as she brooded.

Kushina had made good on her plan to somehow finagle them a mission to Uzushio, finally. Not that Sasuke had expected any different once she'd set her mind on it, and he'd surprised himself with how much the mission was clearing his mind and chakra. Something about the humidity in the air, maybe, making lightning jutsu spark incredibly quickly.

In any case, he was in a relaxed mood for all that it was a fledgling village, waking up before either of his teammates and heading out for an early run around the perimeter.

[sensethis]

It doesn't take her long to take notice of the chakra signal ahead of her. It's faint barely a whisper on the air, but it's there and she follows it for a moment before eventually breaking into a run. Her curiosity getting the better of her as she adjusts her course to cut him off.

Red eyes focused behind her glasses as she searches for a sign of having caught up to her target to surpass the source. As she gets closer it becomes clear that the signal is vaguely familiar, a feeling she's come across only a time or two before but otherwise one she can't identify in a heartbeat like she could her family.

[not_thedragon]

It didn't take long for Sasuke to realise that someone was -- if not following him on purpose, at least on a course to intersect with his own path in a matter of minutes. He kept a steady pace, subtly gathering chakra just in case it was needed: Uzushio might have been rebuilt under the auspices of Konohagakure, but that was no guarantee it was immune from the usual attacks on new hidden villages.

His direction would meet the stranger's at a bridge, he noted, letting the Sharingan flicker into his gaze. Standard shinobi movements, nothing to suggest threat just yet. He kept his body otherwise casual, not giving away that he'd seen his pursuer.

[sensethis]

Well she wasn't making effort to conceal her chakra so if her target wasn't aware of her following him she'd be extremely disappointed. She reached the bridge just a little a head of him (or she's assuming it's a him). When he finally comes into sight, Karin is standing in the middle of the bridge, arms crossed over her chest and foot tapping impatiently.

"Who are you?" She asks leaning forward and inhaling deeply.

[not_thedragon]

Who was he? If he hadn't known Adela, Sasuke might have pinned her for an Uzumaki and written off the rudeness as a genetic trait along with the red hair, but in the absence of confirmation he stopped short instead, frowning.

"It's customary for you to give your name first," he pointed out, keeping his stance loose enough to defend or attack as need presented itself.

[sensethis]

"Tch," she mutters, "I belong here and your chakra isn't familiar." Although it was pleasant, he just didn't need to know that. It's a lame argument but the fact remains that she doesn't recognize him and she knows most of the faces in Uzushio at this point.

"Your name?" she's borderline at the moment, if he still doesn't answer she might flip to that rather scary part of the Uzumaki temperament. She just wishes she's mastered the scary hair her aunt was so good at using to frighten the hell out of Naruto, and she gets the impression she might need that terrifying aura with the young man before her if she doesn't make any headway.

[not_thedragon]

His eyes narrowed when she refused to budge. True enough that this wasn't his own village, but the fact that he was within the village instead of fighting his way from the outside should have been plenty of evidence that his presence was legitimate. And faced with stubbornness -- Sasuke had spent far too much time with Naruto to be swayed by anything but a mountain of willpower, and even then it would have needed to be considerably more threatening than this kunoichi was presenting now.

"I'm a Konoha-nin," he said instead, turning enough to reveal the forehead protector he'd strapped to his arm instead of his forehead today (the humidity made running with something over his face stifling). "An ally of this village. What are your grounds for this behaviour?"

[sensethis]

That didn't say much about his presence in the village. He could just as likely be a spy that's slinking away having completed his mission. Her eyes narrow at the thought and she scans his chakra signature again hands still on her hips and the bells go off again that she's been in the same vicinity as it in the past it just isn't clicking why or where.

"Then you know you should be answering my questions instead of arguing with me," she says it flatly straightening up and crossing her arms over her chest. Her foot starts tapping again only it's more in annoyance than impatience this time. She remains stonily silent ignoring his question, he might be an ally but she'd like his name to run it through the list of visitors in her head before giving her own. "Your name?" She reminds him firmly.
