Character Depth
Personality:
Nara Tenzen is a calm, patient and intelligent young boy, never too humble, he's always been aware of his intelligence, and thus quite rebellious against authority, not in an aggressive way, but in a questioning manner always putting his own reason and beliefs above the rules or orders. He praises family, friendship and justice above anything else, not afraid to contest his superiors in case of a clash of ideas, but always in a respectful and argumentative manner, calmly explaining why he believes he's right through facts and logic.
As a young boy, he's very excited about becoming stronger in order to be able to overcome any challenge. Titles and honors do not interest him for they are nothing but necessary burdens in order to have respect and power to be able to act as he judges best. So he chose to face the climb in the ninja hierarchy in the most productive and interesting way possible: as a challenge, to be studied, and faced with a cold-blooded, cunning and ambitious logic.
But, no matter how determined he is in his quest to grow, he's still a teenager, and as so, enjoys hanging out with his friends, mostly playing to be a ninja, while training their skills, and playing board games, that develop their logic. For leisure, his favorite hobbies are relaxing in a hot pool, gazing at the bright night sky, while dreaming of a fair and peaceful world, and how that could be achieved.
His calm, logic, cold-blooded and calculist nature is reflected on his approach towards fights and training, always cautiously looking at all the possibilities, and acting in the most precise and effective manner, having little care for honor and conventional morale, he'll use the most of hiding and deceiving, making his preference for genjutsu a natural choice.
Appearance:
Tenzen has a slim face, with dark hair cut very short, his eyes small and seem to be always almost closed, as if he was constantly thinking about something, this together with his thick eyebrows and straight small nose, gives him a overall dark and serious semblant, not the look of someone eager to make friends, all of this is emphasized by a thin scar running along his right cheekbone, result of his training. But his thin mouth, which hardly smiles even when relaxed, is capable to occasionally break this appearance with a small smile, never showing teeth, just enough to show his kind heart.
He is a sly boy, thin in appearance, but not in a sickly way, but as a well trained sportsman, who has strength not out of intensive heavy training, but out of repetitive and fight-oriented exercise, giving him a false look of being week, while being actually durable and flexible, his pale skin contrasted with his black and dark gray clothes make him seem reserved and shy, complementing his serious look.
His clothing is overall dark, a black pair of trousers combined with a dark-gray long-sleeved plain shirt, perhaps a unconscious remainder of his clan's technique, his ninja bandana is worn tightly around his left upper arm. When in battle or training his tactical vest is always worn, containing not only weapons, but utility items for many tasks as expected from his cautious nature. Both his medium disks are carried in his back, worn in range of a quick grab to be used in battle.
Background:
Growing up, his father always thought Tenzen side by side the importance of the development of the mind, the heart and the body, in that order of importance, as his father's words were engraved in his mind "men were made, with the hard above the heart, and the heart above the stomach, so reason always precedes the feeling, and the feeling always precedes the desire". Every single lesson of training with his experienced jounin father begun with a reflection about morale, and justice, no matter how simple or advanced, about the poverty and inequalities, or about the shinobi way, so that the following exercise could be not just a development of the skills and of the body, but also have a purpose. and at the end, when he was exhausted he would further reflect, this time, freely, on anything he wanted, life, school, the training he just had, in order to engrave in his mind that exercise should be a source of learning.
Despite their closeness in the training grounds, and having an overall good relationship, his father was always an emotionally distant figure, always concerned with the common good, and his responsibilities as a jounin, even his mother, who was not a ninja, was busy tending her sick parents, and was somewhat distant even though she never failed to tend the house and take care of Tenzen and his father. This created a great internal conflict in the young boys heart, since he could not stop feeling grateful, for all his parents had done, proud of their selflessness, and, in his mind, he really understood their actions, but his heart spoke louder, and this engraved a certainty in his conscience: when he grew up, his family would be above anything else, even while caring about those in need, the need of his family, and those he loved would always come first.
His childhood passed normally, until the day he turned 12, already having distinguished himself in the shinobi academy, thanks to his father’s training, when he graduated and became, finally, a shinobi, in a thrill of excitement, very rare in his nature, but understandable nevertheless, he rushed home, in order to tell his parents, but instead, he faced something terrible, his sick grandfathers had passed away, Tenzen's mother, shaken with grief, was never the same, and became, somehow, more distant and somewhat robotic, as saddened as he was by this, the worst was his father's reaction, he seemed not to care at all! In a surge of rage, he confronted the jounin, but the only answers he got was: "did you not expect this? Of course this saddens me, but my responsibility does not allow me to grief, nor should you, for they are in a better place now, and your tears will only make then sad.".
In these troubled times, Nara Tenzen begins his journey as a shinoby, roping to achieve great power, in order to live life as he sees most right.
