Name: Neji Hyuuga
Age: 14
Gender: Male
Village: Konohagakure
Rank: Genin
Nature Manipulation: Unknown
Appearance:
Neji Hyuuga is 5'3" tall. For a young man his age, he has well defined muscle tone due to his profession as a ninja. The young Hyuuga weighs 103 lbs. Typical of ninja in the Hyuuga Clan, Neji possesses fair skin. His face is very hard set. He normally scowls and thus, his eyebrows are constantly furrowed. The Genin's hard features are offset by his milky white eyes. These eyes are an infamous trait of the Hyuuga Clan. Also typical of the Hyuuga Clan, Neji has black hair that goes down to his mid-back area. It is tied at the very end in a small ponytail. Neji wears his forehead protector on his...forehead and it is black as opposed to the ordinary blue.
As far as clothing goes, Neji wears a light tan shirt. It has latches in front of it as if it buttoned and also has a zipper that runs from top to bottom. These "latches" are also present on the back of Neji's shirt and his arms. Matching his shirt, Neji has dark brown shorts with no exciting features. His ninja pouch is present on his left side attached to his shorts. Neji's right arm is wrapped in bandages starting from his forearm and ending before his fingers. Neji wears sandals that are blue.
Underneath Neji's forehead protector is a cursed seal indicative of a Hyuuga in the Branch party of the clan. The cursed seal is green in color and is in the shape of a manji (usually confused for a swastika). The cursed seal also features two horizontal, wavy lines portruding from it.
Personality:
Neji is a very serious young man. He is very rarely seen laughing and when he does it is certainly mocking. He is usually a quiet young man, preferring to silently observe events and think to himself. Still, Neji is not completely opposed to smiling. He has been known to smirk when something amuses him.
Further than that, Neji believes in destiny and fatalism. Due to the circumstances revolving around his late father, Neji believes that destiny cannot be changed. Each person is born with their full potential reached. Some will be geniuses and some will be failures and that is all. This is not always negative as Neji's belief in fate has made him quite committed to the Hyuuga Clan. He is fiercely protective of Hinata Hyuuga despite the tension between the Main and Branch Houses of the Hyuuga Clan. He knows that it is his duty to protect Hinata at all costs, regardless of his dissenting opinion.
Neji is a very proud young man. He believes in the strength of the Hyuuga Clan and often mentions that "The Hyuuga are the strongest in the Hidden Leaf." He often touts his genius and the fact that he finished at the top of his class in the Ninja Academy.
Underneath his stoic attitude, Neji is full of fury. He resents the Main Branch, because he believes they forced his father to sacrifice himself. He is not disrespectful outwardly, but his mind is constantly filled with thoughts of revenge in whatever ways he can.
Jutsu:
Juuken (Gentle fist)
Hakkesho Kaiten (Eight Trigram Palms Heavenly Spin)
Hakke Rokujû Yonshô (Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms)
Byakugan
History:
Neji was born into the Leaf Village's Hyuuga Clan. His father, Hizashi Hyuuga, was born a twin with Hiashi Hyuuga. Hiashi was born slightly first and thus was separated into the Main House of the Hyuuga Clan. Hizashi's unfortunate second birth caused him to be separated into the Branch House. This meant that Hizashi was branded with the Hyuuga Clan's cursed seal, used to inflict pain on the servant Branch Members and seal the Byakugan in the event of an abduction.
At the young age of four, Neji was a kind boy. He was optimistic, cheerful, and fun-loving as any four year old child should be. It was then that he first met (that he could remember) his cousin Hinata Hyuuga. Even at that young age, Neji swore that he would protect Hinata as was his duty. It was also at this age that Neji was branded with the Hyuuga Clan's Cursed Seal. This frustrated Hizashi beyond all other members of the Branch House. He knew that his son was a prodigy and yet his potential would be suffocated because he was born into the Branch House. The tension began building in his heart. This finally came to a head, and in one brief moment, Hizashi looked upon Hinata with a murderous intent. In response, Hiashi Hyuuga utilized the Cursed Seal upon his brother. Hizashi clutched his head in pain and collapsed to the floor, but young Neji was unable to do anything but watch his father in pain.
Later, Konohagakure reached a peace treaty with Kumogakure who had been engaging in war with Konoha for a long time. Sadly, Kumogakure was insincere. A ninja was dispatched to kidnap Hinata Hyuuga and return to the Hidden Cloud Village. Hiashi detected the intruder and killed him in a single strike. When Kumogakure discovered that their ninja was dead, they demanded the body of his killer as penance. Fearing returned war with Kumogakure, the Third Hokage asked Hiashi to turn himself over. Unbeknownst to Neji, though, his father volunteered to take Hiashi's place. As twins, Kumogakure would never know and his Cursed Seal would prevent them from stealing the Byakugan.
The sacrifice was kept from Neji and he grew up under the belief that the Main House forced his father to take Hiashi's place. That started Neji's resentment of the Main Branch which conflicted with his duty to protect Hinata. When Neji reached the proper age, he enrolled into the ninja academy. He graduated at the top of his class at age twelve. After graduation, Neji was placed on a team with Rock Lee and Tenten under the tutelage of Might Gai. In the present day, Neji has been a ninja on Team Gai for nearly a year.
RP Sample:
Neji stood on the branch of a tree silently. They had finally been dispatched on a C-Rank mission after being a ninja for almost a year. Gai-sensei was not with them, preferring to assign Neji leadership of the group.
"How reckless. Despite my skill, we are still Genin. He places a lot of faith in Lee, but I'm not sure if he deserves it. Chuunin are supposed to lead squads by themselves. This is completely against protocol. Luckily, I am not one to shirk away from my duty. I must admit to myself that I do enjoy the leadership position."
The targets were a group of bandits setting up camp in a clearing near the Hidden Leaf Village. Neji could not see Lee or Tenten, but he knew they would listen to his orders and were thus also hidden in the leaves. The Hyuuga quickly formed a few handseals and concentrated his chakra.
"Byakugan."
Now he could see perfectly. Lee and Tenten were both in position and none of the bandits seemed aware that they were surrounded by ninja. Neji leaned his head toward the communicator around his neck and spoke quickly and quietly.
"Now."
Instantly, a barrage of weapons flew from the trees and incapacitated several bandits. Neji and Lee were not far behind. The bandits hoped to engage Neji in hand to hand combat. A fatal mistake. The first bandit swung a fist towards Neji's face, but he dodged it as if the man were moving at a turtle's pace. In that same moment he placed an open hand on the man's chest. The Gentle Fist was unlike any other Taijutsu. It focused on inner damage rather than outward pain. The man's chakra points were sealed by Neji's strike and he was incapacitated. The genin could hear Tenten cheering into her communicator.
"So easily excited. I haven't even begun yet."
