PHYSICALITY

[Appearance]

Goh stands at an astounding height of 5 feet and 7 inches tall, weighing in at 153 pounds. Goh is quite slender, and maintains a healthy, muscular physique. However, due to his massive clothing, these attributes are hidden and unknown to the naked eye. Goh's hair is long, silky, and a spectacular white, and reaches down nearly to his waist. His bangs are fortunately cut low enough to allow Goh to achieve sight, while two large fang-like bangs hang from both sides of his face to his shoulders. Goh's skin color is a natural caucasian hue, meaning shades of red are bound to occur during any of Goh's hot-tempered explosions. Goh also withdraws a miniscule tan when exposed to the Sun for too long.

Goh's eyes can be described as a golden yellow, which is the most exotic color of his frame. The fact that Goh does not compliment the color of his clothing with his eyes or hair is often questioned by fellow acquantiances. Goh's facial expression is usually a serious tone, though joy is not unachievable. A sinister smile can be seen when Goh is engaged in combat. However, such a unpredictable emotion can suddenly change at any time, due to Goh's unfortunate personality. One of Goh's more abnormal features is his dark-brown eyelashes. Goh believes this is an trait passed down by his ancestors.

Goh's upper attire normally consists of a large oversized kimono, stained with an exuberant red color, symbolizing Goh's bloodthirsty interest during battle. The sleeves are both slit largely across the upper arm area, decieving the viewer to believe that the sleeves are "seperated" from the kimono itself. However, its true reason is to lengthen the sleeves, to conceal Goh's hands when needed. Goh wears two specific neck accessories, the first being Goh's Cloud ninja headband, worn tightly around the neck. Goh's second accessory is a strange necklace, which is hung much more loosely. This necklace consists of a black, worn-out thread, with several wolf fangs connected to it like beads. Each wolf fang was collected by Goh from a beloved member of the wolf pack that protected him when he was younger, and he wears it as a constant reminder of his deication to become stronger.

Goh's lower attire is much more simple, consisting of an overly-sized hakama that compliments his kimono, held together by a long red sash, bowed tightly. The hakama is rather loose towards the knee, and is bloused at the ankles to allow flexibility. As a result of being a boy raised in the wild for several years, Goh dislikes the use of shoes, as it hinders his ability to move faster, hence the reason he is often seen barefoot. Goh's weapons and other small items are worn in a pouch beneath his kimono, to conceal any form of weaponry from his opponent. Goh's final piece of clothing is a great amount of bandages that grace his upper body, wrapped underneath his kimono in a fashion that it covers his torso, shoulders, arms, and ends at the end of each hand's knuckles. This is a style worn by many Taijutsu combatants that Goh has fought.

COGNITION

Goh is a chaotic, impulsive warrior, who obtained an profound gift for fighting during his survival in the wild. Goh is one who idolizes strength, and usually praises his opponent for it, even if that person has done evil deeds. As a result, Goh dislikes signs of weakness or cowardice, and scolds anyone strongly for it, even if that person was a comrade. Goh has an everlasting desire for self-improvement, constantly striving to become physically athletic, despite the fact that he lacks proper intelligence in certain areas. Goh craves achkowledgment, and strives to become the strongest warrior in Kumogakure, but not necessarily Kage. However, by nature, Goh enjoys leadership roles and is very commandive. In many ways, Goh is a natural-born leader and protector. To Goh, Kumogakure is his "pack", and wants to get stronger so that he can protect them. Goh's loyalty and dedication is one of his greatest attributes. When not on missions, some of Goh's everyday hobbies includes excercising, training, or sparring with his animal ally, Raishin.

Normally, Goh is quite a serious individual, and is known village-wide for his hot-headed, short-tempered capacity. When sent upon a mission, Goh tends to get bored, unless fighting of some sort is involved, and prefers missions that involve some sort of combat or competition. Goh is a natural-born hunter, and enjoys hunting. Savage in battle, and prefers close-range combat or Taijutsu as his form of fighting. During battle, Goh is relentless and bloodthirsty, usually fueling his drive to battle by the sight of blood, whether it be his own or the opponent's. Goh's predaceous intent makes combating him rather dangerous and cautious. Goh's intelligence is often defined as "battle smart", because like a wolf, Goh's sense of analysis and attention to detail transcends him to being a powerful ninja. Goh hates being underestimated, and loses his temper when targeted by condescending insults or childish nicknames. Goh is known for his excessive foul language, which is usually the reason for his lack of friends. However, despite his rude and obnoxious tendencies, Goh cherishes those friendships he possesses greatly, refusing to allow anyone to hurt those he trusts.

BIOGRAPHY

The birth of the young warrior would begin on January 17th, in the wild outskirts of Tsuchi no Kuni, to Hibiki and Kagura Tendo, two peaceful, loving citizens of Kumogakure, that would soon face turmoil and pain that would end in tragedy. Hibiki Tendo was a proud Cloud shinobi, who had been the first shinobi to become a Jounin out of his squad, which consisted of himself, Kagura, and his best friend, Hanyo Inuzuka. Hibiki was known for his excellent espionage-related skills, and was eventually sought after by higher authority to complete high-risking missions. One of Cloud's most demanding objectives at the time was to infiltrate a secret organization and reveal their motives, which appeared to be to overthrow the village. With a wide variety of candidates, Hibiki was chosen for this mission, and successfully presumed the role of a "double agent".

However, Hibiki would soon find himself walking into a trap. Despite being extremely careful about his actions, Hibiki was completely unaware of a Kumogakure shinobi who was also a double agent, working for the secret organization instead. Upon learning of Hibiki's orders, the traitor would soon inform the organization, once Hibiki had gained their trust. After realizing that Hibiki was now a threat to their objective, the leaders behind the organization decided it was best to "send Cloud a message". Just a few days after performing one of his greatest stunts ever, Hibiki was found dead, on the doorstep of his home.

Enraged by the fact that such an act could occur, the Cloud council decided it was best to keep the family under surveillance, just in case an unknown assailant decided it was best to take the family captive, since the murderer knew the location of the family's home. However, the protection could not decrease the constant paranoia that Kagura started to develop. Prior to Hibiki's murder, the Tendo family had learned that Kagura was bringing a new child into the world. With her husband dead and her child's life in danger, Kagura announced her leave, and fled the village. Upon realizing that the Tendo family could possibly be in danger, the Cloud council decided it was best to allow the family to depart. 

Many weeks of traveling passed, and Kagura eventually arrived in Tsuchi no Kuni, where she would find peace and comfort in the vast mountains of the region. For many months, Kagura mourned the loss of her husband, cursing the organization and refusing to allow them to get away with it. Although her paranoia was ever present, Kagura was not a weak woman, and knew that true protection lied within the strength of her family. Kagura came to a definite decision, that once the young Tendo child was born, Kagura would train him with all her knowledge, to help protect the Tendo family if a situation ever arose.

And thus, Goh Tendo was born. For many years, the young boy and his mother constantly traveled, trying to maintain a living in the foreign country. Kagura eventually utilized her medical knowledge to become a professional researcher, using the money she earned to support her family. When Kagura wasn't working, she was devoting her resting time to teaching the young Goh about life. While growing up in the misty caps, the Tendo family developed a strong relationship with the wildlife, attracting the most attention from a wild wolf pack, known as the "Shirokiba". The Shirokiba pack was a group of snow-white wolves known to dominate the northern area of the country. Kagura's relationship with the wolves would develop when she came across a hurt Shirokiba wolf. Utilizing her great Medical skills, Kagura sheltered the wolf, took care of it, and eventually helped it recover to full capabilities. At first, the pack was hesitant to trust her, but upon learning of her aid, the Shirokiba would have no choice but to be indebted to the Tendo family.

However, the Tendo family would soon face tragedy once again. One day, while out playing with his Shirokiba companions, the young Goh returned home to find the body of his mother, dead. With no one to guide him, Goh was left within the protection of the Shirokiba. Genku, the leader of the wolf pack, understood the boy's dilemma, and ordered the family to protect him at all costs. The pain from witnessing such an atrocious act would traumatize the young boy, affecting his mental stability and causing him to change. As the years passed, Goh would develop a strong bond with the Shirokiba family, gaining the most trust from Genku's newborn son, Raishin. Goh and Raishin would both learn to understand and live in the wilderness, Goh's demeanor and personality changing as well, morphing from a young, innocent child, to a wild, feral animal. Goh's disconnection with mankind would hinder his natural human traits, losing the ability to both speak and act properly.

Meanwhile, back in the village of Cloud, the council would soon learn from Kaminari no Kuni authorities that a former shinobi of their village had been murdered. However, fate would soon reconnect the Tendo family with their shinobi heritage once again. Upon traveling across the Land of Earth, a group of rogue ninja from Cloud came across the Shirokiba pack, after traveling for so long without food. Goh, who was traveling with both Raishin, Genku, and a few other wolves, was unaware of this hidden threat. Hungry and desperate to eat, the rogue ninja acted on impulse, and attacked the defenseless pack. Genku, who was the strongest out of the group, tried his best to defend the helpless, refusing to die, even when he had been wounded severely. But sadly, the leader's efforts would prove futile against such skilled shinobi.

After realizing that a young boy was in the midst of the packs family, the rogue decided it was best to kidnap the mysterious boy and use him to their advantage in the future. As the rogue ninja left with the young Tendo and a few Shirokiba bodies, the dying Genku asked for one last request from the young Raishin, who had witnessed the entire onslaught. Genku's request was for the young pup to always protect Goh, no matter what. Saddened and devoted to his father, Raishin accepted the request, and secretly followed along, in hopes of retrieving Goh. However, the rogue ninja would not know that a group of ANBU shinobi who had been ordered to assure the rogue ninjas' death by Cloud was also tracking them as well. As the rogue ninja continued their journey, the ANBU silently followed along, unknown to them that a captive child was in their presence. Once the rogue ninja had settled, the ambush commenced.

A deadly assault it was, but the ANBU had completed their mission. Upon disposing of the dangerous men, one ANBU shinobi inspected their luggage, and would come across a terrifying discovery: the young Goh, nearly starved, inside a cage. As soon as the shinobi would reach to secure the boy, a young white wolf sprung from the shadows, in a attempt to protect Goh. At first, the ANBU thought Raishin had gone crazy, but soon realized that it was a friend of the mysterious boy. Unable to decipher who the child belonged to, the ANBU notified the authorities, but was shocked to discover that was a captive child had no identification, and that the boy must've been born in the wild. Confused and dumbfounded at first, one of the ANBU shinobi suddenly remembered that a woman from Cloud had been murdered in Tsuchi no Kuni, and contemplated if the lost child was hers. Hesitant at first, the group decided it was best to return the boy to Cloud along for DNA testing.

And thus, DNA would prove correct. Cloud authorities learned that the young boy was the offspring of Hibiki Tendo. Since the boy's family was a native of Kumogakure, the current Cloud council decided it was best to leave the boy in the protection of his parent's native village. However, when it came to finding a home, the council would have great difficulty. The boy had close-to-no capability of communication at all, due to living in the wild for so long, and could only communicate with his animal, the young Raishin. When all deemed futile, a sudden opportunity arose. Upon hearing that a young Tendo had been rescued from Tsuchi no Kuni, Hanyo Inuzuka, a retired Cloud shinobi, stepped forth.

The Cloud council knew that Hanyo's ability to communicate with animals, especially canines, would prove him worthy enough to raise the boy, including the fact that he was a beloved friend of the family. With no hesitation at all, the council approved, and the young boy and the white wolf began living amongst the Inuzuka clan of Kumogakure. The beginning of Goh's upbringing in Kusagakure was rough. At first, Goh was reluctant to respond to Hanyo at all, but upon learning his connection was animals, Goh slowly learned that Hanyo was a trustworthy person. Hanyo decided it was best to teach Goh the basics of human language once again, as Goh remained secluded under the watch of Inuzuka. Since the retired Hanyo had opened a boxing dojo prior to learning of Goh's existence, the Inuzukan decided it was best that the boy followed in the footsteps of his family, to become a proud shinobi. And thus Goh's training would began.

It took many years, but Goh's shortcomings would eventually be overcome, learning the fundamentals of chakra control in no time. Despite the fact that he hadn't learned the difficult aspects of chakra manipulation just yet, such as advanced Ninjutsu or Genjutsu, Hanyo understood Goh's capabilities, and labeled him as a "natural-born Taijutsu fighter". Goh's training under the art of Inuzuka Clan techniques would prove that he was capable of becoming a great shinobi. Once Goh had learned enough, Hanyo decided it was best to not seclude the boy any longer, and enrolled him in the Academy.

Goh's development would truly begin to blossom, as Goh understood the academic side of being a shinobi. Goh's personality would soon reform during this stage, developing into that of his mentor, Hanyo, which was arrogant and naive, but still wild and chaotic as his former feral-self. Goh would learn to control his unnatural blood lust, and would instead convert this attribute into undying determination to become a stronger shinobi. By the time that Goh had graduated, he had regained his humanity, being capable of speaking and acting as a normal human and learning to control his impulses. However, Goh's abnormal upbringing would cause him to pursue the life of an outcast, only seeking friendship from both his animal companion, Raishin, and his mentor, Hanyo Inuzuka. Although Goh didn't have many friends, he cherished those that he has, and strives to protect those that once protected him. Now a successful Genin, Goh thrives to continue his training with Hanyo, in hopes of one day fulfilling his mother's wish, and becoming the honorable shinobi his father was.

*GASP*

An odd feeling would suddenly overcome the Inuzuka, originally being perfectly secure before experiencing the immediate loss of breath. The opponent's sly maneuver would go unnoticed by the Red Fang, the gesture completely exposed to the surrounding eyes. Short bursts of exhaustion would become present in the Inuzuka's mind, a hand grasping his throat as he felt that he was fighting effortlessly for air. The unforseen disability would confuse Goh relentlessly, unable to understand why he had become weakened without reasoning. Immediately, the only logical reason would be that it was some form of technique performed by Arate that was affecting him, no other possible means coming to mind. This sole idea planted in his mind, Goh would realize that if he was being targeted by the half-blind shinobi, he was doing so nonchalantly, no visible movements supporting this thought.

From the wall, Tsuki Inuzuka would observe the fellow clansman's trouble, witnessing the handseals beforehand. Without another second, she would easily understand what was occuring, believing the boy known as "Arate" to had used some form of Ninjutsu or Genjutsu. However, despite revealing the boy's scheme, should would hold her breath as well, refusing to disqualify the Akakiba on account of her stubborness. Her fellow Inuzuka observers wouldn't be as fortunate, questioning what was occuring endlessly with no solutions. Her voice low enough for a bare minimum to hear, she would inform them of what was happening in a soft tone.

"This boy...he might lack physical strength, but it looks like he specializes in another area of jutsu...most likely Genjutsu if I knew any better...Goh better do something...and I mean he better do something fast..."

The disadvantage would continue to consume the Red Fang, the breathing process becoming more difficult by the second as he decided that just standing there would solve nothing. Angered greatly by the opponent's cunning tactic, Goh would waste no chances, enduring the handicap as he felt the chakra began to cluster around his composition once again. His body still strengthened by the Four-Legged Technique, Goh would press his feet against the ground, bending his knees as chakra built forth in all four appendages. Chakra would engulf the Inuzuka as he threw himself five meters backwards before catch himself, his body launching in the opposite direction as he began his journey towards the boy. Goh would strive to conceal his best assault until he truly needed it, but the boy's trick would prove that he had no time for procrastination, the technique being a do-or-die effort. His body would begin to rotate vigorously into a deadly missile, the Piercing Fang technique becoming complete within mere seconds, his target set entirely on the dark-skinned boy. The Red Fang's path would be quick and horizontal, granting change of direction if need be. But nonetheless, if Arate was unable to evade the speeding bullet, he would surely be in for a world of pain.

"TSUUGA!!!"
