1) Is there any particular reason that you, the author, want to achieve the Rinnegan? (Heads up; this is an optional question)

I'd like to obtain the Rinnegan, to give it a different meaning for peace. Which would instead be referred to as justice. My character could be just as good without the Rinnegan, however with it, I can open up and achieve new heights. My character's use of the Rinnegan focuses around Bhuddism, but he goes around preaching it an entirely different way.

2) What is the name of the character? And will the character belong to any clan?

The form of justice (Rinnegan), is for Sigma Uchiha. Yes, he is apart of a clan, the Uchiha to be exact.

3) Will the character awaken it through the terms of Samsara and Buddhism? Or does the character awaken it through different theories? Please detail your answer so detailed as possible.

I mean, in a sense, yes I am following the ways of Buddhism/Buddhist. While also including what is possibly thought to be a way of awakening the Rinnegan. However, it follows a bit more of the applicable part, rather than the bland cycle of rebirth, which I tried to follow once before.

4) What is the background of the character? How does it support the awakening of the Rinnegan?

The manifestation/awakening of my Rinnegan is done through more Fanon on means, however, it is backed by canon, to justify myself.

The renowned dōjutsu, is the symbolic standpoint or grounds for peace, with the hint of rebirth, which is actually the simple meaning for Samsara. Amongst this, are the means or various different methods which those who seem "peace" can follow. In this however, its the way of the dharma. Those of the dharma have had at least once reached a low in their life, then turn to search for answers, philosophical searching just to come to a different conclusion. The teaching of the Buddha as an exposition of the Natural Law applied to the problem of human suffering. This suffering would be the recycle of war and "unneeded" bloodshed. This would be known as, complete peace.

After the conclusion of the 4th Ninja War, Yamagakure enter it's land found themselves in their second civil war (Permission granted by Ten to create a 2nd Civil War). During this time Yama adopted various different elders or for this case "masters" to teach and guide the younger shinobi down the right path. These masters were supposed to teach their students of peace. 'Amongst these elders, was the one known as Sarutobi Yamamoto, or from what Sigma referred to him was "Old Man Yama". But this master's ideals are far more treacherous than Sigma might have bargained for. The master is a follower of Satsujinken (the fist/blade that takes life; in other words, the "murder fist/blade"), as opposed to the Katsujinken (the fist/blade that gives life; the "protecting fist/blade"), and plans to show Sigma that the truth of finding inner peace comes from devoting one's self to the act of destruction. By throwing away morality and ideals, and devoting one's self completely to kill or be killed, one can find a peace within themselves. This is attributed to the idea that "when a man's will is set, his vision encompasses all things, and the tranquillity of his heart is undisturbed."

And little by little, Sigma, out of desperation for peace, slowly begins to believe that this is the right way. He follows his master's Satsujinken and little by little, becomes a fifteen-year-old child murderer. But it isn't so clear-cut. Deep down, there is a conflict within him that is being weakened each day by his murders. It isn't until something completely tragic happens, that Sigma finally snaps out of his descent into the Path of Asura (the way of the demon).

At this village, where he and his master have decided to engage the people here in order to acquire food, Sigma is confronted at a household by a father and mother attempting to protect their child. Their five year old child. Sigma kills the both of them, and goes to ransack the hut for supplies, when the young child fetches one of his father's weapons and tries to kill Sigma from behind. Of course, Sigma, still in killing mode, strikes the boy down without remorse. It is only after he accomplishes the act that he realizes two things. One, that the boy he murdered was a young child. An innocent child who shouldn't have ever seen the crimes of war. But Sigma would not have noticed at the start because he was devoting himself to kill or be killed and simply did not discriminate between child and adult. The second, was that the mother was actually pregnant. In the bloody mess of the parents and child he slain, the stomach ripped apart by Sigma's attack, he sees the small shapen arm of an unborn child. An unborn child, not even given the right to be born, let alone be allowed to live, killed by Sigma simply for the sake of killing.

And the fifteen year old Uchiha finally snaps. He confronts his teacher, who taught him to kill without discrimination and questions the entire purpose behind Satsujinken. The master then shocks him by simply stating that Satsujinken "has no point." There is no higher purpose nor a higher meaning to all this. It's about survival. The strong live and the weak die. The weak are food for the strong. Sigma can't accept this answer. The bottled up conflict that had been raging within him finally bursts and he attacks his master. But his master, both older and more experienced, bests each and every one of Sigma's attempted assaults. But Sigma fights through. He can't allow this to happen. If he doesn't stop this Satsujinken now, more innocents will die for nothing. A damaged mess of muscle and blood spewing from his open wounds, Sigma keeps attacking, but is finally struck down. He screams out and begs for someone to help. Anybody. Sigma's will is set. He is no longer at war with him. He has chosen the Katsujinken. And just as the master prepares to make a final blow to kill him and continue the cycle of Satsujinken, Sigma's eyes glow bright and reveal the Rinnegan, blasting apart the master with Shinra Tensei.'

The way of a dharma connects to the conceptions of Naruto through one specific way. It followings completely parallel, with literally no curves. Ninshū is the connecting of people through spiritual energy, so that all could come to an understanding with humans, and the situations of the world good or bad.

Sigma believes, that instead of starting fights, that he should connect people through the strong will of his spiritual energy, or what we know of it as, ninshū. With some people however, they don't care about the world, nor the people other than themselves, and try, instead of picking themselves up, want to bring others down so that they can feel superior. Thus these people do not want to be understood, and are threats to the world therefore forging Sigma to resort to the defensive capabilities of his physical energy. Where the birth of the Rinnegan came forth. The physical energy, that stood for the spiritual energy to connect humans manifested as the heavenly dōjutsu, the Rinnegan. Which the Rinnegan, is his way of defensive, representing his physical energy. While his ninshū, offensive or his way of connection people represented his spiritual energy. It seemed the DNA from Asura and Indra hadn't been needed to awaken the eyes, but instead of complete understanding of energy of their father.

The Rinnegan (輪廻眼; Literally meaning "Saṃsāra Eye"), is pretty much a portal, or a symbol of peace. It's stated, "It is said that in times when the world is in disorder, a person is sent down from the heavens to become either a "God of Creation" who will calm the world, or a "Destroyer" who will reduce everything to nothingness." The world is now in chaos, those known as the Black Crown are on the active move, with addition to "masters" and fakers just like Old ManYama before them. Sigma, who'd acquired the Creation of All Things, and through his activity and trails had literally been worshiped, would be the new vessel, sitting not on the side of the "Destroyer", but on the side of the "Creator".

5) Which Path will correspond with the Rinnegan that belongs to your character? What are the relevant canon abilities that the character will obtain? Would your character specialize in any specific path Paths? And how will the character utilize these in their own fashion?

My character will be utilizing all of the paths, and down I will give a little teaser of how he will use each one to his own ability:

Animal Path: With this path, instead of summoning the beast that were seen in the anime, Sigma will summon true animals. Ones of actual intellect, with near mind of their own, and with the ability to speak through them. This is his choice or form of justice, however, he can summon the normal beast as well.

Preta Path: His reasoning behind using the Preta Path, isn't to just absorb ninjutsu, and fill his own reserves. Instead he uses it to negate ninjutsu, and put an end to fights, as a try for having a peaceful end.

Asura Path: These extra limbs aren't used for just his ability to fire off chakra blast. But as a means for stopping multiple opponents. Using the extra arms to grab hold of the opponents, and holding them down.

Deva Path: The Deva Path's abilities are used as a means to push his opponents of off him, whilst trying not to engage in a full fledge fight. Then pulling them towards him, in attempts to speaking to them. And using the Asura Path to hold them down.

The other paths are coming soon.

7) If you are planning to create original techniques, please elaborate these below. How are they relevant to the Paths that your character can use?

I'll be devising the Inner Path (Sigma). To represent his inner peace, of the dharma, but it'll be rewritten, so please bear with me.

8) Optional: Additional Information

Additionally, his teaching of the Rinnegan's secrets will come from his godfather, Raido X. Raido is an Arihant, which is like what, the opposite of what Sigma is (Dhammic). Learning from Raido would be best, as he applies things differently being a Also, since he is still with his parents, Sannoto & Ayame they can serve as a means for guiding Sigma down the right path.
