Questions
1. Please indicate the name and article of the Fanon Tailed Beast you are applying for.

Saiken

2. What is the origin of this beast? How did it come to exist, and what has it done in the time period prior to FC? Is it related to the shinju? If so, what is this relation? '''Saiken is indeed related to the shinju, in the sense that it was made from it's chakra. When the sage of six paths, revered as the first ever jinchuuriki, was reaching his own limit of existence, he called upon the chakra bestowed within him and using creation of all things, separated the shinju into 9 individual parts, which came to be known as the nine tailed beasts, so that after his own passing, the shinju would never ever reform itself.''' 3. How will your character obtain this tailed beast? If your character is part of a village at the time of the sealing, why would they have been chosen over other candidates to receive the Tailed Beast? If they were not part of a village, how did they manage to seal the beast? '''Shizuka was born (in Kirigakure) with immensely potent chakra, so much so, that her loved ones, including anyone she bluntly came upon, compared it to Kisame, who was renowned as the tailless tailed beast, and in her later years, acknowledged it to have even surpassed that mark.  Growing up, she was trained by Harusame, who had another student by the name of Utakata, who happened to be the jinchuuriki of the six tails (Saiken). As an unofficial team, Utakata and Shizuka grew alongside each other at a quickened rate, whilst learning the soap bubble ninjutsu from Harusame. As a particularly attractive female, Utakata and Shizuka shared a bond beyond friendship, and Shizuka came to be known by both his family, and Saiken, who spoke to her on more than one occasion through Utakata. (This was the typical 'awkward anime' type thing, when Utakata and Shizuka were together, and it was quite, Saiken would randomly comment on him having a cute girlfriend, despite them never officially dating)''' '''Things fell apart when Harusame tried to extract the beast from Utakata. (In reality, he meant no harm) Utakata retaliated, believing his master to have betrayed him. During the scuffle, Shizuka didn't know what side to choose, and during her panic, was caught in the crossfire of a fully transformed tailed beast, rendering her unconscious. She later woke up beside her master's corpse, something that would leave her traumatized for the rest of her life.''' '''Life went on afterwards, Utakata later met Hotaru, who he agreed to train because she reminded him of Shizuka. Sometime later Shizuka learned of Utakata's death, leaving her even more tragically distorted.''' '''After the Fourth Shinobi World War, the tailed beasts which originally belonged to the villages were returned, with Saiken going back to Kirigakure. Unbeknownst what freedom truly was, he opted to remain within a jinchuuriki, inspired by the likes of Kurama and Gyuki. He longed for a bond like the two shared with their hosts, and looked towards Shizuka, the only true kirigakure shinobi he had known. (Since Utakata departed from the village and had no more ties with Kirigakure. Shizuka, thanks to her beauty and bond she shared with Utaka, (through his memories and sorrow, remembered Shizuka)selected Shizuka as his jinchuuriki. At first, Shizuka rejected the beast's offer, advising it to stay free within nature. However, she felt as though by becoming it's host, she would be honoring Utakata, and opted to become it's host. This does not mean it was sealed inside of her by herself, shinobi within Kirigakure would have done it. Also, this is one of the few instances a tailed beast wanted a host, because it was inspired by the bonds between Naruto and Kurama, and Bee and Gyuki.'''

4. Bonus question: What kind of seal was used for the sealing of the beast? What are it’s strengths and weaknesses? '''Having remained loyal to Kirigakure, (and becoming quite popular with her beauty and multiple accomplishments)Saiken was sealed within Shizuka by some of the villages most capable fuinjutsu specialists. The Iron Armor Seal was what Shizuka was branded with, though a different version, as the iron armor seal is used explicitly by kumogakure shinobi. Though stronger variants were available (such as the uzumaki one naruto has, though these guys aren't from that part of world)the seal symbolized equality by Saiken, who would have had an easier time coming through from Shizuka. (The kirigakure variant I'm speaking of is not nearly as powerful. Had saiken tried hard enough while Shizuka was in a weakened state, like the jelly state hozuki go into, Saiken would easily be able to get out on it's own)Like I said, this is to emphasize that Saiken still has it's freedom, though it chose to have a host.'''

5. Here’s an optional question. What kind of seal was used during the sealing? And what is it good and bad at. Two examples. First a canon one, Naruto had an Eight Trigrams seal placed upon Kurama. This seal was incredibly strong, but the way it allowed kurama’s chakra to mix into naruto’s own allowed Kurama to actively weaken the seal over time, allowing him to corrupt naruto with time, as well as to almost escape. '''The seal used on Shizuka was incredibly weak, most likely weaker than any other sealing method used to seal tailed beasts. (Atleast weaker than chiyo's, minato's and b's.) This was done on purpose, to emphasize on the fact that Saiken did indeed have it's freedom, and that Shizuka would be willing to die for it, had it chosen to opt out of her to return to it.''' '''As the seal is rather weak, Saiken can fully contribute it's chakra through the seal. There was no 'weakening the seal' stage, as mentioned before, Saiken came by choice.''' Strength: Chakra available at it's entirety Weakness: Saiken can leave whenever Shizuka is weakened, if it chooses to do so 6. What is the relationship between the tailed beast and your character? If they are on good terms, why? If they are on bad terms, what plans does your character have to improve this relationship? '''Saiken and Shizuka are on great terms, with the beast having come by choice, and having been within Shizuka for nearly 30 years. Saiken, unlike all the other tailed beasts (mentioned on the mother site) is much more kinder, and alot less self-serving. The two have a great bond, often teasing and joking with one another. This bond originally came to be while Saiken was still within Utakata, though to a much lesser extent. Saiken choosing Shizuka as it's host was greatly inspired by the sense of honoring it's last jinchuuriki, and also to get rid of the guilt of slaughtering Harusame, by aiding his apprentice.'''

7. What are the powers of the Tailed Beast? How do they work? How do these powers fit in with the identity of the beast itself? Roughly how much chakra/natural energy/whatever does your best have? What of these powers are accessible with the Jinchuuriki?

'''All tailed beasts possess an insane amount of chakra, as they originate from the shinju. Their ultimate attack is the tailed beast ball, which the rasengan is based off of. Saiken, as a slug, has it's own unique ability. Similar to Katsuyu (who is also a slug), Saiken can secret highly corrosive acid throughout it's body. This acid is extremely strong, having burned through the skin of gyuki during the fourth shinobi world war, and for some reason, (which is anime only) turns the jinchuuriki into a bluish color.'''

Acid slugs are a real thing, which saiken and katsuyu are most likely based off of.

8. What is the relationship between the beast and it’s jin? How proficient are they with it’s power?

'''Shizuka and Saiken have a great friendship, constantly teasing and cracking jokes with one another. As Saiken did come by choice, they almost immediately became close friends, though spending 30 years together would further polish their bond. (It's like a sibling relationship)'''

'''With a weakend seal, Saiken is able to contribute it's chakra to Shizuka at will. Despite possessing horrific chakra prior to becoming a jinchuuriki, Shizuka found it hard to control the beast's chakra for the most part, and originally could not handle it, though this was changed in the span of 30 years.'''

'''Shizuka, having spent a considerable amount of time with Saiken, and the fact that Saiken is much less self-serving than all the other tailed beasts, was responsible for training Shizuka, after Harusame's death. This would allow Shizuka to eventually master it's chakra, able to initiate the version2 state and partial transformations at will. However, Shizuka is slower in taking it's full form.'''

9. Briefly detail what your plans are, at the moment, for your character if he/she is approved for the selected tailed beast? What will they do with it? How will they improve or utilize it in a fashion that is unique to them, rather than a rehash of canon character usage or maybe even other fanon characters?

'''Saiken will contribute into Shizuka's carnal techniques. Saiken will also play into the theme of Shizuka being a seductress, often teasing her actions, and pulling jokes in awkward moments. By transferring the acid to her mouth, Shizuka can burn before through a kiss, and or other means on contact, such as fists, and feet. She would also combine the acid with her hydrification technique, to turn herself into acid, and then spread herself throughout the room in the form of a liquid/gas to kill her victims.'''
