::Never Judge A Book By It's Cover::

Casual Appearance Lie is of Japanese and Greek decent giving him a pale skin tone. The young shinboi only stands 4 feet and 9 inches from the ground and weighs in at 100 pounds exactly. Being only 9 years of age Lie isn't exactly a well-built muscle machine. However, he has that of an athlete's body with sprinter legs. Nothing physical about him stands out. Most usually just write him off as a scrawny little kid.

He has blonde hair that never falls past his eyebrows which leaves his ocean colored eyes for everyone to see. Still being young, Lie has yet to out grow his baby face. Due to his baby face he has been labeled as an innocent child who could never cause no harm. Because of the Greek roots that reside within him Lie had been given a rather large nose which causes him to stick out in a crowd. Lie's lips are thin causing any smile he gives to be faint and hardly noticeable. They also are a very light pink color rather then red as most.

Clothing Choices Residing in a fairly hot part of the world most of his clothing is thin and light colors. Never will you spot the young child in any black colored clothing due to the fact that it attracts heat. Most of his shirts are short sleeved and are mainly blue though you will find a couple of red, orange, and green shirts. Lie does own a couple of long sleeved shirts along with a gray hoodie just in case he every has any need to travel to a colder country.

Cargo pants are normally his choice of pants because they always have a large number of pockets. Every single pair of cargo shorts he owns are a tan color and never anything darker then the surrounding sand. However, every pair he owns is slightly to big for him so he uses a white leather belt to keep them on his waist. The young shinobi only has one pair of dark blue jeans that are fitted to the extent that some claim they are skinny jeans.

Lie could be seen wearing open toed sandals when he is out walking around the village. When he is training or on a mission he wears a light pair of white running shoes. Except over time those white shoes now have a sort of brownish tint to them, but he still wears them. In fact Lie refuses to wear any other pair since they are the pair he was wearing when he became a genin. In a way he kind of views them as his "lucky" shoes.

::Acting Under Pressure?::

Lie is a very humble young man. Instead of taking on credit for what he has done or accomplished he is always quick to give the credit to those around him. He insists that without them involved in his life Lie wouldn't of been able to get to where he is now. Being raised by a single mother Lie has become very well mannered. He always addresses his elders as "Sir" or "Ma'am" and always says "please" and "Thank you".

Another trait that pushes the boy on is his fiery passion. When fully believes in something, he will put forth all his faith into that one thing. Lie would do anything to achieve a certain goal as long as it has good intentions behind it. No one can alter his mind once it is made up. Not even the Kage could change it. It sort of also brings out how stubborn the kid could be, but then again everyone is hard headed in their own way.

Still being a very young kid, Lie can sometimes be immature when around friends. It is just his way to express any sort of humor. Lie is very amused by jokes and just loves to laugh in general. Rarely would you ever see a moment where he isn't smiling. The kid is just way to young to even know stress.

Confidence is a trait Lie is still developing. It's not that he doesn't have any, it's just he isn't really sure what confidence truly is. He doesn't want to act on anything just because of confidence. He isn't the type of kid who believes he could be whatever he wants to be without any sort of work ethic. Lie believes nothing can be achieved without working towards it. Just because someone is smarter then him doesn't mean they are better then him. No, he thinks that if he can out work you in any other category he holds a huge advantage over you. Maybe that's what his confidence is..?

Working under pressure isn't exactly his strong suite. That's one category he really lacks experience in. It's also one he doesn't really feel comfortable in when going through it alone. Lie needs someone to rely on and support him through times like that.

::Life As I know It::

Chapter 1: Misunderstood Legend

[/b][/size]
On the summer solstice, just as the sun had set, a new life had been birthed. The birthing of the child wasn't in the care of any nurses or medic in the nearby hospital. Instead, it happened in the woods only with a pack of wolves as witnesses. A native American looking women sat upright against a giant Oak tree with a bloody baby in her hands. One of the wolves in the pack approached the women and her child. However, the mother showed no fear. In fact, it appeared as if she expected the wolf to step forward. The alpha of the pack licked the baby as if it was a blessing. Once the baby was clean of blood and the life line between child and mother was cut, the wolves vanished off deeper beyond the tree line.

Just as they faded from view another strange scene erupted. A great beam of light melted the snow as a figure came into view. As if transported by the strange light, a man stepped forward. The man was handsome, tall, lean, the whitest smile, and the brightest shade of blonde hair. The man had traits that only seemed fair to belong to a God. Maybe this man was a God? The women with the newborn and the man talked briefly. They knew they didn't have long to chat. The strange man urged the women to travel where the sand met the heavens. He promised her that their child would prosper in this sort of environment. The women hated the thought of leaving behind everything she had known, but she couldn't deny the mans request.

It was clear that a love connection between the two were strong, but it could never stay attached. The mysterious man bent down on one knee in front of the infant and gave him one kiss on the forehead. Some how the kiss held some sort of meaning, but what exactly it was was unclear. One thing was clear though, this strange man who appeared to be a God was this child's father. Just as he came..he vanished. The beam of light appeared and the man was gone. Just as he vanished from view the sun rose again.

Yes, that's the story Lie's mother told him every time he would lay down. At the end of the story she would explain that was how he was brought into this world. His mother was fully convinced that her son was a demi-god. Well, ever mother believe's their son/daughter is special. Lie's mother however seemed to take that to the extreme. Did she really expect him to believe that his father was/is Apollo, the Greek God of archery, music, and the sun? The way he saw the story, it was just a way for his mother to explain to him why he didn't have a father. Lie knew better then to believe in silly little tales and he was learning to accept the fact that his father left when he was a baby, but part of him held on to any hope that his mother's story was true.

Anyway, Lie had been living in Sunagakure for as long as he could remember. Though he knew he had a grandmother who lived in Yuki No Kuni. They exchanged letters here and their, but Lie never exactly met her in person. However, she told him that she was their right before his mother and him left the country. Like she expected him to remember something from when he was only a day old!

Ever since Lie had turned five he was seen with a bow in hand. However, it was until he was six that he was allowed to play with arrows as well. All day everyday he was out in their backyard firing away at homemade targets. Archery quickly became his first love. Their was days he didn't even attend the academy because he wanted to play with his bow some more. He even begun to sleep with the damn thing!

However, his mother eventually buckled down and made sure he attended the academy. She explained to him that he was to make a difference one day and he needed that sort of training. However, Lie hated shinobi. All they lived for was war. Lie thought fighting could always be avoided. Even if it couldn't be avoided, they should learn to take prisoners instead of killing endlessly. He had heard of some shinobi whom roam the land kill for the fun of it. They treated a human life like it was just game in a hunt. People like that was the only thing that made him want to learn the ways of the shinobi just so he could put those type of people away.

To rid the world of evil was his goal in life. Sure he was young, but he had a full understanding of what evil was like. Never before had he ever seen this sort of evil, but he heard stories from old ninja. They relived every mission they ever took on and Lie just sat around them listening. Most of the ninja he listened to were praised as hero's through out the village, but very few actually were hero's. Most of them were just puppets acting on the orders of the Kage whose only mission was to protect the people in his village. The Kage's didn't care about any of the other people who suffered in other parts of the world. Lie did however.

After being nine years old for only four months he graduated the academy. It was relatively young, but under weird circumstances that even he was unaware of, they allowed it. Nothing about him was special. He had average grades, and wasn't even the best fighter in his class. Every time they would be assigned a sparring partner Lie always lost. Still, he graduated and they were still in the academy. Maybe soon another chapter in his life will explain what happened to his father and why he graduated early, but for know he would remain in the dark on such subjects.

Effect: Natural Position, easy to reproduce.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: One of the four stances a user may learn as they are able to learn just one if they wish. Small base of support in the front-back plane. Body isn't sturdy, so it can move if in high winds. Lowers area for string clearance, especially for large chested shooters. Many archers prefer the even stance.

Limit: Must be an Archer

Open Stance
Rank: "E"
Skill: TaiJutsu/Supplementary
Effect: Gives stable support base, reduces tendency to lean back from the target.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---

Drawback: ---
Description: One of the four stances a user may learn as they are able to learn just one if they wish. Hard to maintain, so mainly used by expert archers. Some elite archers use the oblique stance. In this stance the archer places his/her toe of the left foot nearest the target on a line and pivoting the left foot forty-five-degrees to the target. The heel of the right foot is then placed in line with the toe of the left foot.
