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.

...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?"

[notveryspecial]

...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.

[teachingpeace]

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?"
