PERSONOLOGY[/u]
- Kaneko Nao
- Thirteen
- Clanless
- Iwagakure no Sato
- Genin
- Easy/Beginner
- Genjutsu(1), Taijutsu (2), Ninjutsu (3)
PHYSICALITY[/u]
- Five, Two
- One Hundred and Two
- Bred by artsy-craftsy folk, Nao has a closet full of maternally made garments. Often, they are loose-fitting and warm colored, with a style on the border of sengoku-influenced wear and pajamas. However, when it’s work-time, he’s commonly seen in copper shaded, v-necked vests, loose shorts with white frills on each side, and bandaged shinobi sandals. Sometimes, during missions, he tapes up his arms for extra measure. Always worn, his ninja headband stays either strapped around his left bicep (when in casual wear) or inexplicably attached to a brown bandana around his neck. In addition to that, Nao is particularly fond of a bracelet his grandfather gave him during a visit. It features a teal metal with a small kanji inscription spelling out ‘vigilance’.
- An unintimidating looker, that’s for sure. While having a somewhat athletic body structure, Nao can never seem to capture the aggressive look; it lends a lot to his personality. He’s quite short compared to his mates, and his body follows suit with proportional limbs and whatnot. His facial features are still childlike, dominated by large olive orbs. Nao’s pointy nose and small mouth compliment a round face, one in which rosy cheeks are a facet. And his hair is a little contrasting, giving off an untamed look.
COGNITION[/u]
- To put it simply, Kaneko Nao is a narrow-minded adolescent who hasn’t grown up at the speed of his peers. Don’t question his resolve and talent, because he’s truly devoted into making himself a more capable shinobi. In fact, that’s his primary ambition; it plays into him being a good footsoldier for the Iwagakure uppers. You see, Nao is completely faithful towards his village, believing that he’s indebted for their taking his traveling family of artisans in. Also, he has a profound loyalty to Kira, the Tsuchikage. The boy doesn’t see their semblance in age with envy, but wonder. It’s essentially his driving force when attempting to take to the next step. He’s most conflicted when faced with challenges of morals, which as a shinobi is a constant trial. Nao has very childish insight. This can sometimes be perceived accidental genius or downright daftness. Further, he’s can be quite goofy among his friends, but that’s a role he’s played for so long that it transferred unto his work. Underestimating would probably be a bad idea, though. As for worldly things, such as village diplomacy and whatnot, he’s simple and unaware. He just studies up on his current missions and attempts to succeed without fail.

ARMAMENTS[/u]
- Primary Weapon
Tonfa
Rank: C
Type: Primary / Melee
Description: Traditionally made from red oak and wielded in pairs, The tonfa can be gripped by the short perpendicular handle or by the longer main shaft. In defense, if the handle is grasped then the shaft protects the forearm and hand while the knob protects the thumb. If both ends of the shaft are held, the shaft can be used to ward off blows and the handle can be used as a hook to catch the opponent's weapons. One can also swing the shaft to strike the target, as large amounts of momentum can be imparted to the shaft by twirling the tonfa by the handle. Finally, by holding the shaft and the handle of the tonfa together, one can use it for holding or breaking techniques. - Secondary Weapons
Ninja Wire Strings
