Anime: Naruto Name: Tora Mazuka
Age: 15
Gender: male
Description: He somewhat resembles Naruto Uzumaki in looks and demeanor in that he is hot-headed and outgoing, although Naruto is far more energetic, as opposed to Tora who is more carefree. His wavy and curly, blond hair is somewhat dark, unkempt, and parted down the middle. His clothing consists of the regular Mazuka clan member jacket, albeit with the collar upturned. A dark sash, worn in a manner similar to the Twelve Ninja Guardians, is placed about his waist near his katana, completing his otherwise nondescript, ordinary, and harmless appearance, which is in sharp contrast to his noteworthy power.
Personality: For his age, Tora is extremely bright, skilled in every art of ninjutsu and being quite proficient in math. However, despite these obvious talents, he has a very low self-esteem, often viewing himself as a burden or unsuccessful and yet he still strives for perfection in every way as he is often seen quizzing himself in math or practicing his sword techniques. In his mind, everyone but his cousin Ryun (whom he refers to as his big brother), looks down him and views him as useless, though this is quite a misconception on his part as others seem to find him a funny and comfortable person to be around. He is highly ruled by logic, believing that if something doesn't make sense than it is most likely false or a lie. He takes things meant as sarcasm seriously until told otherwise, which leads him to getting his feelings hurt often.
The emotional side of him is bottled up inside of his conscious, which puts him in a state of turmoil whenever someone he cares for is injured or he himself is ill. On one side, he wants to show compassion, but on the other, he doesn't want to be seen as week or unstable, which causes him to appear rude, when he is truly just trying to mask his concern. This side of his surfaces on rare occasions when worry or guilt overcome him. He seems to get very embarrassed when his weight or height is mentioned or talked about in front of anyone. He rarely speaks of it, even when he is speaking in private with the few people he deems trust worthy. Despite this turbulent side of him, he is quite humorous. Constantly cracking jokes and making sarcastic remarks to almost anything told to him. He is also very energetic and doesn't like to be left out of the action.
He has a short fuse and will often go into a rage over little things. He learns to deal with his anger by going for walks by himself or going to see his cousin, so that the two can talk. His philosophy in life is, "Life is no fun unless you get in trouble." Which leads others to believe he is reckless, when actually he is very careful about his actions. He finds a major source of motivation in his cousin's optimism. This is what usually drives him to excel in combat and is also what drove him to begin training to learn ninjutsu despite only having mediocre chakra. He becomes happy when he sees perfection in his work and an "I'm proud of you" smile on his cousin's face. He is generous towards the few people close to him, but tends to be quite stingy to others.
