{I'm the Greatest Ninja of Them All}




{You Think You Know Me}

Character Name: Shen Kurabara
Nicknames: Akatsuki Killing Craved Ninja

Age: 21
Height: 6'3"
Weight: 150lbs
Gender: Male

Personality: Naturally Shen is a really laid-back, yet cocky, guy, with quite the short temper. But recently, he's become more serious upon finding out that the Akatsuki's coming back into power. He has a plan, and intends to put it into action soon. The only thing that Shen can do to take his mind off Teia recently is to take up as many missions as he possibly can. Despite being an ANBU, he rarely wears his mask, and only wears his headband under his hat so it's not visible (in his pic, it's the red cloth tied in the back). He always wears that hat, no matter where he goes, as it was given to him by Teia. Shen has recently given up on trying to hide the fact that he's a wolf.

{They Made Me Who I Am Today}

Mother: Tiara Kurabara
Father: Isan
Siblings: Teia Kurabara (deceased)

Family History: The Kurabara clan isn't all that popular, seeing as how most of the members are pretty cocky and arrogant. They get along okay in the Stealth Valley of course, but most people just tend to leave them alone.


Character History: Shen was born in the Stealth Valley. When he was fifteen, his parents had a little girl named Teia. Then his parents decided they wanted to disappear, leaving Shen to watch after Teia by himself. He didn't have much help from the rest of the Kurabara clan, not being a close-knit family. Then, during the last attack on the Stealth Valley from the Akatsuki (I'm gonna take a wild swing and say it was about a year or two ago), Teia was killed. Shen never found out specifically which akatsuki member killed her, but to this day holds an undying loathing of the akatsuki.

Just recently Shen became the ANBU Captain of the Stealth, even though he'd told himself that he'd never take the position. So much for that. After having closed everyone out of his life for the past few years, Shen's finally started trusting people once more, allowing others to know that he's a wolf. He's become comfortable with the fact, but that doesn't necessarily mean that he likes it. Recently Shen took in a little girl by the name of Etsu, because she was an orphan. And more than that, he reminds Shen of Teia. He tries not to let his views of Teia get in the way of his raising Etsu though.


{A New Beginning}

Shen paced about in his home. Etsu was out playing in the park, but there was something that seriously bothered him. It was the Akatsuki. They'd been taking over villages left and right, without much to-do. If the Stealth and Snow went to war, how long would it be until the Akatsuki tried to take one of them over as well? This was bad, very bad. He had to bring this up with Tenkuu. Granted, she knew of his hate of the Akatsuki, and he'd been known to make extremely irrational decisions because of said hate, but...this was a legitimate fear he was having here! Right...?
