Name: Shikayero Nara
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Rank: Kage
Village: Hidden Leaf
Bloodline: None considering the Nara clan’s techniques are hidden not bloodline.
Appearance: His hair is dark grey and pulled back like most Nara. He also has earrings like most Nara. His eyes are a light grey and he wears a mesh shirt under his Kage robes and baggy pants. He is slightly more buff than most Nara. One interesting feature to note is that his shadow rarely stays still.
Weapons: His pants are mostly full of scrolls that allow him to carry many ninja tools. He prefers kunai, shuriken, paper bombs, a short katana and trip wire.
Bio: Growing up Shikayero wasn’t your typical Nara. He was far more motivated than most Nara. He tried hard from an early age to learn the shadow possession jutsu. His father was the head of the Nara clan at the time and his mother married into the Nara clan having previously been a member of the Sarutobi clan. This could very well explain why he seemed able to learn the Shadow techniques so easily and his desire to learn them so early. He spent most of his time at the academy at the top of his class with minimal effort and learned of the great mind that his ancestor Shikamaru had and idolized him. After becoming a genin, at the age of 10, he realized with the help of his sensei that he too had a sharp mind. Maybe not as sharp as Shikamaru’s mind but with his drive and talent he could easily see himself being just as great if not greater. He was teamed up with the usual Ino-Shika-Cho combo as a genin and quickly became a leader whenever their sensei wasn’t around.
He entered the Chunin exams within a year of becoming a genin and passed his first time. The first portion of the exam caused him little trouble finding the true intent the entire time. After he found he shadow possed Inola, his team mate and mimicked the mind transfer jutsu giving her a hint and allowing them to easily receive answers with the utmost confidence for the final question. Round two was a simple strategy of sit wait, shadow possess a whole squad, steal their scroll, and made dash to the end. During the final round Shikayero outwitted every opponent and managed to win the tournament without a scratch. He became a Chunin by a unanimous decision.
He taught classes on strategy at the academy for four years after that. He gained a reputation for being a tough but kind teacher and was the proctor of many exams. Occasionally he would be called away on missions that required his skills and when he had free time he tried to push the envelope of the shadow possession technique. Through his study of the technique and other shadow based jutsu he certain that he could create an ultimate combination of the shadow possession technique and shadow clone. He began working on this technique at the same time he was working on tactical shadow techniques trying to work how shadows naturally work into his strategies. He succeeded in creating five shadow based jutsu and used them regularly during his missions. He quickly gained the name master of shadows.
Around the age of 15 Shikayero was promoted to the rank of Jonin and was put in charge of a squad that was primarily used for stealth missions. He meticulously planned out every detail of every mission that he and his squad went on. He had a 100% mission success rate at this time and his fine-tuned jutsu like shadow sneak allowed him to infiltrate enemy strong holds undetected. He was also put in a think tank that was in charge of creating an updated series of defense strategies for the village. Around the age of 18 he managed to perfect the ultimate jutsu he was working on. He created a technique known as the Ultimate Shadow clone. It allowed him to completely detach his shadow allowing it to do whatever it wanted to do. It could rise into three dimensional form and use shadow possession. Best of all was the fact that it would never disappear after being hit. The down fall to it was that it clearly could be distinguished from Shikaryero. He reasoned that in order to disguise my clone would be pointless due to the difference in chakra structure. It was meant to be the ultimate extension of the Shadow Possession jutsu freeing him to be able to use other techniques in the process. It is impossible to do unless the user has the ability to completely control their chakra and they have to have a strong background in shadow based jutsu. If the shadow is gone from the user for too long it slowly starts acting rouge and starts to drain the user’s chakra immensely.
After the sudden cardiac arrest of the Hokage, Shikayero was all but unanimously voted into the position by his fellow jonin. He is working intently on increasing the strategic defense of the leaf village so they can live without fear of attack. He plans on rekindling the Will of Fire that the shinobi of the leaf had during the time of his idol Shikamaru.
Specialty: He is an expert strategist. He has also taken shadow based jutsu to the next level. Unlike most Nara he is fairly motivated. His shadow is able to detach and work separately.
