Appearance:
Shikazze appearance is like that of most members of the Nara clan in general, when it comes to his physical aspects, as he is tall and slender like the rest of his family with long dark hair, as well as similar facial features, as it is easily possible for many to just look at Shikazze and tell he is of the Nara clan, just off his pure resemblance to the rest of his clan members. With many of them being said to look very identical. Especially when it comes to their style of dressing and their similar trends of all wearing the same hairstyle for clans tradition. When it comes to height, Shikazze is one who is quite tall for his age, being that the young Nara at the age of fourteen is already two inches shy of being at six feet. As the young ninja stands at a height of five feet and teen inches, with a weight that fits very well with his size, making Shikazze look quite buff and slightly older than what he actually is.

When it comes to hair style, Shikazze is unlike the mass majority of the Nara clan male members, since even though his hair is long enough for it to be worn in the traditional ponytail style of the male members, Shikazze is one who is not fond  of the hair style or the old tradition that come along wit it. Which is why many of the old members tend to have issues with Shikazze and his ways of not following the old traditions. Since hair wise, Shikazze is one who prefers to wear his head down with part of it covering over his left eye. As he usually keeps his hair kind of messy considering like most of the Nara, it is long and reaches his shoulders.

Clothes wise, Shikazze also likes to go against the traditional style of dress that the traditional Nara tend to wear, as he really doesn't care for the old ways when it comes to the basic dressing of the Nara man.Shikazze’s normal appearance is a custom outfit that he has come up with himself. Which consist of a black cape reaching down to his feet, with golden edges, a much lighter collar circling his neck, and a prominent, white ribbon hanging down on his chest. Below it, Rogue seems to wear a plain gray shirt with prominent brown cuffs and what looks like a large metal band circling each of his biceps. From a light sash circling his waist hangs a distinctive, pale blue cloth waist guard, consisting of four long pieces of cloth reaching down below his knees. Each of these pieces is adorned by a large, dark cross with fan-shaped arms. Below such waist guard, Shikazze wears a pair of armored boots, which, on the front, bear plates bearing the very same motif which appears on the waist guard.


Height: 5'10
Weight: 125 lbs

Personality:
Shikazze is one who is not for many words, feeling that his actions would speak louder than anything he or anyone else could possibly say, knowing that words have a tendency to be slightly deceitful or field with false truths. And deceit is not something that Shikazze is very fond of, considering the fact that he is the type of person who is straightforward with just about everything that he does. Letting any and everyone knows how he feels about them straight off the bat if the situation calls for it.  As Shikazze is one who knows when to keep his mouth shut and when to speak his mind, being that he is not only a ninja who is observant of the land and environment that is around him, but one who is also observant of the tension and mood of certain situations as Shikazze knows that they are just as important.

Weaponry and the art of the sword is one of the pure joyes of Shikazze and is something that the young Nara takes very serious, even going against his clans normal traditions and practices  to spend more of his time to better himself in the art of the sword, so that he may potentially master as many styles as possible. As Shikazze is one who loves to show his skills in the art of weaponry, especially to the other Nara of his family that tend to look down on his unique style of fighting. Which pushes Shikazze even more to develop his style in the face of those around him, to show that he has what it takes to live up to the reputation of the clan. As not letting those that he cares about down, is something that is very important to Kazze, and something that keeps him pushing everyday to better his ninja skills.

Calm minded is another major thing that can be stated about Shikazze, as he is one that tends to never let anything get inside of his head, no matter how intense the situation may seem to become. As staying cool and not collect is something that Shikazze prides himself on, knowing that he always needs to stay at least three to five steps in front of his opponent if he is to hope to come out on top in combat. Knowing that if his head gets riled up, it could lead to him making hasty decisions that could turn bad for him or his squad mates. And putting those on his team in danger, is something that Shikkaze does his best to never let happen.

And being born into the Nara clan, brings Shikazze’s love for the art of the shadows, having spent a lot of time with his clan to learn the many different qualities of the art. As it is something that brings peace to Kazze and many more he feels, which his why he does his best to show the world the beauty of shadow art in his own unique style, so that the world may see the beauty that brings such peace and happiness to the Nara Clan.

History:
Shikazze was born unto the current head of the Nara family on a night  when a full blood moon completely shined over the Sun village one night, as their third oldest child, in the village of the Sun.  The night that would come to be called the The Night of the bloody Moon event that was considered very strange to those of the Sun Village, and even more that Shikazze was the only child born that night, and a child born with red eyes nonetheless. Making many of the village dub Shikazze as the child of the blood moon and to see him as something of rather strange, as even members of his own clan tended to keep their distance from Shikazze, fearing that it could be something slightly strange with the boy. Though much was still expected of him by the Nara clan in the way of tradition and skill. As the Nara clan was one of the clans who had managed to become slightly renowned in the village of the Sun for their efforts in the past.  

Making Shikazze’s  upbringing one with many expectations and traditions. SInce being a child of the head of the clan, meant that much was expected from him even at birth. As the whole clan automatically expected for Shikazze to to be gifted from birth in the ways of the Shadow Art., as well as the fact that many expected for him to be even smarter than the average of the clan as well as to having high honor of the clan’s traditions. Some of which would manage to come true in due time of his upbringing, while some of it would be completely ignored by Shikkaze. As he is nothing like his older siblings.

From a young age Shikazze would know the ends and outs of the Sun village spending much of his time as a child roaming around the village with his father as he handled various Nara clan duties, and amongst these trips would be when Shikazze would come to learn of his strange birth night, and how many of the villagers had a different opinion as what it meant of him being the only child born to that night. And a child born with red eyes on top of that, considering that was a very strange abnormality in the Nara clan. Though Shikazze would come to terms of how different people of his clan, and village  treated him differently because of his birth night.

Upon reaching the proper age to enter the ninja academy, Shikazze would instantly be thrusted into the lifestyle of the Shinobi as was expected of him. And the Academy would be sort of a sinch for the young Nara, though it did not truly interest him much as he would rather spend his time training alone to better the skills that he so personally chose to do so then to be stuck in a room with many other children learning, skills that he had no such interest in. Though Shikazze would mind his manor and let the other students of the academy learn as he spent most of his free time with is, older siblings trying to master the ways of the Shadow Art. An art style that truly interested the likes of Shikazze. As Graduation from the Academy would come soon for Shikazze, as he was gifted and smart just like many of his clan, living up to a few of the expectations thrust upon him.

Once becoming a Genin, Shikazze would spend most of his time alone searching the deserts that surrounded the village of the sun, as he did his best to find new ways to train himself in the way of the sword, as well as improving his skills in the Shadow arts. As Kazze knew that he had a long road ahead of him if he wanted to become a truly gifted ninja and live up to the Nara clan’s legacy, as well as show the Traditionalist of the Nara clan, that his style of Shadow art would be able to work just as well as theirs.
