Board Thread:Fanon Canon: Applications/@comment-7040990-20140819033222

1. Please indicate which of the following dōjutsu you are applying for. A) Mangekyō Sharingan B) Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan C) Rinnegan

2. How will your character awaken this dōjutsu? Do they meet all the canon requirements? How so?

Throughout the Fourth Shinobi World War with the “Akatsuki” and the Allied Shinobi Force clashing against each other, much chakra had been spent and left chakra residue behind. It was not the main issue at hand at first, until the four reincarnations of Indra and Asura (and other unwanted) were reunited. This would mean that in the aftermath of the war, anyone (i.e. Orochimaru) could obtain samples to acquire unrivalled power, or the mass of energy would cause mass destruction in the near-future.

To prevent either option (even the unmentioned ones) to happen, the consciousness of Indra’s and Asura’s made all the masses of energy collide to create a vassal. It would be an artificial human, one whom adapted the form of a new-born and who would be ‘immortal’ in its own way. And her name would be a reference to be one of the “original” of the three Rinnegan wielders (not counting Sasuke).

3. Briefly detail what your plans are, at the moment, for your character if he/she is approved for the selected dōjutsu? 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?

Before the Indra and Asura’s consciousness were completely absorbed into the newborn, both gave the newborn a name: Both names appear to be instinctively known by the infant, yet it appears that “Shimotsumaki” is preferred by the child.
 * Indra gave her the name “Shimotsumaki” which refers to the volumes of Kojiki and who the Uchiha ancestor considers to be true wielders of the Rinnegan: Kamitsumaki (上巻 "first volume”; literally meaning “Volume of the Age of the Gods”) – Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki, Nakatsumaki (中巻?, "middle volume") – Madara Uchiha, Shimotsumaki (下巻?, "lower volume").
 * Asura, who was chosen as the successor of his father, would give her the name “Okinako” meaning “Old Man’s Child”. It is also hailing from Kaguya’s book, if I am not mistaken.

The main focus of her current Rinnegan abilities will be the Animal Path and Deva Path and secondarily is developing the Preta Path and Human Path. But going back to the Animal Path, Shimotsumaki appears to have given “life” to her coat (which appears to have ‘Rinnegan’ eyes) and teddy bear; subconsciously she might have used the Human Path.

Animal Path: Both appear to channel/share/feed Shimotsumaki with whatever they’ve devoured and absorbed.
 * Kasha (Cat-Demon) is the cloak/hoodie of Shimotsumaki which uses the Animal Path to transform into a feline form, usually a huge demonic cat that protects its master from harm and devours all those that possess a threat to her. It possesses the Human Path of Shimotsumaki.
 * Furūtsubo (Animated Jar) is the teddy bear that is usually held closely by Shimotsumaki, which also possesses a soul that had been ripped out by Shimo herself, to make the bear her friend. The bear acts as a shield for Shimotsumaki and is able absorb/eat and deflect ninjutsu attacks through the Preta Path.

Six Paths: Shimotsumaki has her own variation of the Six Paths of Pain, which currently are the two aforementioned and she, but may expand if she finds something trivial to add to her collection. It uses the animal path as a connection to her.

Deva Path: Shimotsumaki’s manifests itself within her own body. However, unlike the other paths it’s not a stable path, with it using both the primary techniques of the path at random when she calls upon its power. This can lead to a pull when she wants a push or vice versa. However, both can be performed at the same time in rare occasions, to catastrophic results as her opponent is crushed between two opposing forces.

If more detail is required, I’m willing to write out more. Otherwise you’ll see it one day appearing on her page!
