Background
Even from his birth, Honosuke wasn't a very dutiful child. His mother was mid-ranking family member of the Nara Clan, who had by virtue of her beauty won the hand of a noble in the relatively recently developed Amegakure. To be truthful, she didn't really even want to have a child, intent on enjoying her life and doing missions so as to increase her fame and notoriety as a deadly ninja…however, once she became pregnant, that all changed. Social pressure and the limits of time that she had once she had birthed Honosuke led her to become increasingly more and more homebound. It wasn't long before his mother lost all ambition to continue with her ninja duties, focusing on running her household.
Honosuke was far more interested in his mother's shinobi past, even from a very young age. He had found her forehead protector that she had sealed away in one of her trunks and was duly rewarded with a sound spanking from his father and a stern glance from his mother for getting into her things. Ninja matters were 'Too much trouble', she had always said to Honosuke, who, being a child, immediately took this as ninja affairs being just for adults. In classical parental defiance, Honosuke did whatever he could to seek out information about the shinobi of the wider world, even going so far as to sneak around Amegakure and (badly) following the various ninja squads from the great villages that passed through.
Eventually, Honosuke was noticed by a fellow member of his clan, a distant cousin who had been sent to visit his mother and gather an update about the affairs of Amegakure. The arrival of the cousin was of extraordinarily interest to young Honosuke, who was just about the age to become a genin. He knew that if he stayed with his mother, he would never get a chance to pursue his dream of becoming a shinobi. So, one night, he ran off with his cousin, who agreed to at least train him while he was on the road, travelling between the Hidden Villages.
During his training, Honosuke was taught the trademark ninjutsu of his clan, Shadow Manipulation, as well as discovering an affinity for Suiton, or Water-Based Ninjutsu, learning to simply manipulate the water around him, though he could only perform limited techniques. During his time with his cousin, Honosuke performed several missions, though mostly his involvement was spying on the enemy incognito and occasionally using his Shadow Imitation Jutsu to drag sentries away from their posts in order for his cousin and the rest of his group to eliminate their targets.
Upon his return, some four years later, Honosuke was a fairly well trained shinobi, even though he received very little 'classical' schooling, his practical experience far outweighing official training. This balance of skill got him noticed by a certain group forming within Amegakure. The feudal lord of the Land of Rain was interested in starting a shinobi corps in order to better protect the borders of his country…and of course sell out their services to other villages for the prestige and money. And so, Honosuke was drafted into the first generation of shinobi in the Land of Rain.
Personality
Honosuke is very much a patriot of Amegakure, feeling a deep connection to his homeland. He rather missed being away from the comforting sound of the rain that lulled him to sleep during his infancy. Even though his missions can carry him far from home, he does his best to always carry some of the rain from his home in glass bottles, which serves a dual purpose. One, he always feels a connection with his home…and secondarily, and perhaps more pragmatically, it serves as a ready source for his Suiton.
He prefers to think out situations ahead of time rather than blindly rushing into confrontation, as keeping a cool head keeps you alive much longer than a hot one ever will. Calling him a pragmatist would be well in line with his way of living and thinking.
Appearance
The young man before you doesn't look much more than fifteen or sixteen, but carries himself as if he were an old man, partially slouched over and looking for all the world as weary as someone four times his age. He has closely cropped flame-red hair that is left flat and somewhat messy, adding to his overall appearance of complete disregard for his appearance. He is dressed in shinobi clothes, that is plain enough, a creased and well worn flak jacket worn over the mesh netting that he wears as a top. He wears a pair of casual shorts and shinobi sandals, rounding out his appearance. He carries no weapons and little distinguishing characteristics that would announce what village he belongs to, lacking a forehead protector.

Nara Jiyo |
Mother |
Honosuke feels a great deal of care for his mother, like a good child should. Even so, he spent a good deal of time chafing under her expectations that he should become a craftsman instead of taking up the traditional Nara mantle and becoming a shinobi. |

Hidden Mist Technique/Eternal Rain Mist Technique |
D-Rank |
Ninjutsu |
This jutsu envelops the surrounding area in a dense mist, reducing visibility within the affected area. The density can be controlled by the user, allowing them to create a mist so thick that even they can't see through it. Though it can't fool the Byakugan, against the Sharingan it is a most effective technique. Due to the mist being created with the user's chakra, any Sharingan-user will see the mist colored by their opponent's chakra, which will effectively hide the user from the dojutsu. Honosuke generally prefers to not acknowledge that he learned this technique will travelling and prefers to refer to it as 'Amegakure Hidden Technique: Eternal Rain Mist'. |
Shadow Imitation |
D-Rank |
Ninjutsu |
The Shadow Imitation Technique allows the user to extend their shadow for as far as it has sufficient area. Once it comes into contact with a target's shadow, the two shadows merge and the target is forced to imitate the user's movements. |
Shadow Neck Bind |
C-Rank |
Ninjutsu |
After capturing an opponent with a Shadow-based stun, the user can then further extend his shadow up to the target's throat in the shape of a hand, which may be able to asphyxiate the victim by squeezing. The closer the user to the opponent, the tighter the strangle will become. This technique cannot be used for an extended period of time and weakens with each passing minute. |
Water Bullet |
D-Rank |
Ninjutsu |
After forming the needed seal, the user spits a small ball of water from their mouth towards the target. The attack has enough force to break rock, and dent steel. |
Water Lance |
C-Rank |
Ninjutsu |
Water Lance is a water-based ninjutsu developed by Ito Kurohana. By forcing water to take a narrow cone shape and using chakra to launch it, the ninjutsuist can essentially 'hurl' the water at her opponent. The apex of the cone will impact, causing immediate damage, possibly breaking the skin, breaking bones, or causing severe bruising. As the rest of the cone impacts the body, the force of the water will have a knock-back effect. |

Clone Technique II |
D-Rank |
Ninjutsu |
An improvement over the basic clone technique, Clone Technique II allows the creation of two clones instead of one. As well, the clones can mimic the original's movements more realistically. They still are not truly tangible and cannot attack anyone. |
Water Clone |
C-Rank |
Ninjutsu |
An elemental bunshin jutsu that uses the Water Element to make copies of the user out of water. It's similar to the forbidden Shadow Clone jutsu in that it creates clones that are solid enough to act on their own and perform tasks that the original user isn't intent on performing themselves. Water Clones aren't completely without limitations, as the clones cannot travel overly far from the original body. Along with this, each clone is only roughly 1/10th as strong as the original. Just like other clones, if damaged enough it will revert to water and disperse. |
