Test Drive Post!

Sunshineverse

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.

She recognized his red hair as probably Uzumaki clan, at least, but she understood that they had been traveling through most of the elemental lands brokering deals and working to re-establish Uzu as a country with influence, rather than...ruins. Seeing one near Ame wasn't a huge concern.

Him reaching down and touching her injury was a huge concern. She wasn't exactly a medic, so she couldn't actually say if that was a medical technique, but it was certainly a potential genjutsu technique.

Despite the fact that her sword would be useless against genjutsu, her hand immediately went to its hilt anyway. "H-hey, what are you doing?" At least she had the skills to stave off genjutsu if that's what he was trying to do...but that didn't mean she really wanted to.

He didn't bother to pause, or even seem to show he felt in the least threatened as he administered the chakra before pulling away, a small amused smile coming to his lips at her thinking that he would be intimidated. Konoha-nin.

"Healing. After a fashion."

Hey, Konoha-nin could be intimidating! To anyone not a world leader or crazy, probably. But...um. Apparently he really was trying to heal her, and she didn't...feel her chakra stirred up more than what it took to do whatever healing he just did.

She blinked down at her leg, and then glanced up at him. "I've never heard of healing like that."

"Considering I've yet to learn proper healing from, that is hardly shocking." He stepped back, peering at her through the fringe of his hair, thoughtful.

About as intimidating as a wet kitten, this one. "Now, what is a Konoha-nin doing here?"

"Oh, I see..." That, she was pretty sure, was really weird in Konoha. But other countries might be different. It would still go on her report though.

"...Like I said, I'm lost. I don't know where 'here' is." Though she's sure now it must be Ame, since he identified her as Konoha. Which is...potentially diplomatically awkward, but...

"...But I'm guessing this is Ame? I must have tumbled across the border a little ways back."

"Yes, you can usually tell my country once the rain picks up, it rarely breaks off near the borders, after all." He gave an amused smile at that, inwardly mocking her failure to notice an upturn of rain falling from the sky.

After all, he'd noticed her a while ago.

"It's raining in Konoha, too." Because she'd been on the border when she slipped. Which is why she slipped. Mud. Everywhere.

But she's not going to share tactical information with some random person in Ame, even if her mission wasn't highly classified. She's not an idiot.

"...If you're familiar with this area, do you know the closest road back into Konoha? The way I came from is too steep and slick from this mud." The chakra she usually used to climb things was of little to no help when what she gripped slipped away as quickly as her feet would have on their own.

"You're a shinobi, walk over the surface of it instead of in it." He waved to his own feet where he most definitely wasn't sunk down in the mud. "As for Konoha, that is quite some distance from here, mm? Days by foot."

"...The border of the land of fire, I mean." She isn't dignifying his first comment with a response.

She'd had trouble getting up the cliff maybe more than normal due to her injury, but a road really would be best. She could meet up with Kiba that way.

He peered at her for a moment, then straightened, his black and red Akatsuki cloak falling neatly around him. It was good at keeping rain off the body, as it was meant to be. "The fastest way is going back the way you came."

...She glanced over her shoulder and sighed. Honestly she's wasted too much time talking to him. She didsn't have time to argue for any longer, so even if there was a faster way, at this point...

She was about to just bid him goodbye when she did glance back at him. He'd straightened up a bit, which wasn't anything unusual, but...the gloom of the rain and his hair had previously hidden much of his face before and...not anymore.

She startled and took an immediate step back when she met his now-visible eyes.

Rinnegan. She'd never seen it personally, but she'd read about it and heard it described. It was the sign of the messengers of Ame's leader. Which meant...she wasn't really sure, because Ame and its leader was weird and confusing, but ultimately...from her position of a foreign chuunin...he might as well have been another village's lord or kage.

"A-ah...?!" This. Was the opposite of avoiding an accidental diplomatic incident.

Shirakumo was going to kill her. "You're...You're one of...Lord Pein?" He's not her lord, but disrespect was not a thing she should compound the situation with. 'One of Pein' was really kind of iffy on it's own just because the paths were a mystery she never really studied, so how to address that she had...no...idea.

"You could say that." He felt an amused smile come to his lips, and he tipped his head to the side, just a bit, fully revealing his eyes as his hair slid away from them. "I am the god of Ame. And who might you be, Konoha-san?"

...The god of Ame. Right. She'd wondered if that was a rumor (as villages sometimes had, like the ones who claimed other villages had secret kages) or not, but...apparently not.

Anxiety aside for a brief moment--the Rinnegan was really something else to look at. The side of her that enjoyed taking techniques apart and examining them wanted to get closer and investigate them (for instance, were the apparent ridges above or under the lenses?) but the rational part of her kept that well under control.

Besides, even if he wasn't the representative of the leader of another country who might easily kill or capture her, or worse cause a diplomatic incident that would end in war or killing her promotion chances ever (she's not convinced the last hasn't already happened. Wandering into the wrong country was a mistake even genin usually avoided)...she had no medical training whatsoever. Without being handed a scroll of something to explain it or give her the answers she may or may not have wanted, she would have been able to do nothing more than poke at him.

And even an academy student knew not to poke the eyes of a foreign leader.

In truth, she wasn't remotely comfortable looking away from a strange and very powerful foreign shinobi, but she gave a small, apologetic bow anyway. Although it endangered her (more than just encountering him did), it was better that than do anything further to risk angering Ame. "I am...no one important. A chuunin who's lost her way. Please accept my deep apologies for the intrusion!"

"No-one-important-san, I believe that that name is rather a mouthful, is there one that is more pleasing to say that you might have been nicknamed with?" His tone was utterly and entirely dry, to say nothing of being unimpressed. He had, after all, asked another question entirely.

...She wasn't sure what to say to that. She really was an unimportant chuunin. Her mission wasn't high priority or covert, so knowing her name would mean nothing.

Unless she started the Fourth Ninja War by falling into Ame, then maybe her name would be important. There was that.

"...Sakura. Sakura Haruno, of Konoha." Sakura was the name she defaulted to, because there was no use in being identified by a family that meant nothing even inside Konoha. But presuming that a lord-would-be-god-representative would want to use her first name would not win her any 'not going to start a war' points. Probably.

"Haruno-san." He paused after saying it, head tilting slowly, and then he nodded once, clearly coming to a decision of some kind, though what that was was unclear. Instead, he studied her face. "I will not forget it. Now, the mission that brought you so close to our borders, it isn't of the kind that should concern me, is it?"

...It was very okay if he forgot her name, actually, but despite appearances she was not the sort of fool who would think of saying that. Particularly in her current situation.

"Not at all, Lord Pein." It was just an escort mission with stubborn mercenaries and an annoying route that ended up in her mini disaster. Which speaking of, she was itching to change her appearance, but even a henge jutsu would be inappropriate action at the moment.

It was good she wasn't attempting to hide herself. It would have triggered off his... less pleasant instincts as she would have presented herself to be a threat to his country, Konoha or not.

Or maybe especially. He still held bitterness toward them, to a degree, even now. "And how long have you been roaming here?"
