Forum:Natsuki Maki

Questions
1. Please indicate which of the kekkei genkai or kekkei tōta you are applying for.
 * A) Dust Release
 * B) Ice Release
 * C) Shikotsumyaku
 * D) Wood Release

2. How is your character able to obtain this kekkei genkai? Please detail this below.
 * Her clan, the Maki Clan, are ancestors of the Yuki Clan and reside in Kirigakure. Because of this, any Maki Clan members have the slight possibility to use the kekkei genkai: ice release. Natsuki obtained that minority.

3. How will your character awaken this kekkei genkai? How will they realize they can use it?
 * She awakens her kekkei genkai around nine/ten while trying to survive fighting a pursuing pack of wolves (her village is located in the mountains and have a wide span of forests so wolves are common.) Usually her older brother would take care of any wolves but Natsuki wandered out alone. Worn out and weak, Natsuki is on the verge of giving up when she remembered something her Dad told her about elements and manipulating your chakra (nature manipulation.) Natsuki imagines molding her chakra around and with the help of the snowy climate, Natsuki is surprised to see tiny particles of ice forming in her left hand. Natsuki tried harder, building more chakra into her palm. When she finally creates a decent enough blade, small though it was her first attempt, Natsuki was able to defeat the wolves. When she returned home, she passed out from overexerting herself. She trains ice release alone and in secret from that point on. She never knew it was a kekkei genkai until her father listed them off.  

4. Briefly detail what your plans are, at the moment, for your character if he/she is approved for the selected kekkei genkai? 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?
 * She'll try to hide her ice release at first, for fear of being treated differently. But then she'll start to use it more as she was forced to reveal her ability when her mother tried to kill her younger sister. Natsuki uses ice release to enhance her taijutsu by creating weapons made of strong ice like katanas, naginatas, and yaris (kenjutsu.) Natsuki can't use very much ninjutsu so she'll most likely never have an ice release technique like Haku's. Serelitie (talk) 16:16, February 16, 2014 (UTC)
