1. Why is your character obtaining Sage Mode and/or ?
 * <--Yoshida seeks to learn Sage Mode to fufill Miyabi's wish for peace in his life. He views Sage Mode as a way to become one with nature and, in turn, live peacefully. -->

2. How will your character learn Sage Mode? Which animal will they learn it from?
 * <-- Yoshida, carrying on his "mother's" will, practiced his meditations daily just as Miyabi instructed him to do so. Each day, he would sit down alone and meditate. After many sessions, Yoshida had noticed that his Will Flame was being affected every time he meditated. It had changed color, grew larger, and glowed brighter. He dismissed it as a random fluctuation but after multiple occurrences, he realized that something was affecting his flame along with his physical appearance changing. He knew that nothing but his emotions and own chakra could influence his Will Flame. He deduced that it must have been an outside force influencing the flame. Yoshida tested his assumption by changing the location of his meditating sessions. His first session he did inside of a closed area such as a house. His flame did not change in the slightest. He then moved outdoors in the woods and meditated. His flame changed dramatically. Testing a few more times, Yoshida discovered that it was energy from nature that was affecting his flame, seeing when he neared a tree and the flame grew and brightened. After seeing his flame change, Yoshida started feeling bodily changes. His speed, his strength, his stamina, and durability had all increased. These increases weren't limited to his physical attributes, though. His ninjutsu and genjutsu had increased as well. -->

3. Initially, will your character have access to an Imperfect Sage Mode or a Perfect Sage Mode? If Imperfect, will it progress to a Perfect Sage Mode?
 * <-- Yoshida will have Perfect Sage Mode due to his being able to measure how much natural energy he takes in through his Will Flame. The larger the flame, the more nature energy he has within him. Yoshida has learned the specific size his flame must be to augment his abilities to the correct degree. If the flame is too large, he will began morphing into stone (he made the mistake before). If the flame is too small, nothing will happen and his entering Sage Mode will fail. -->

4. How will your character obtain the Cursed Seal? What type of seal is it? And what kind of power grants it?

5. What are the drawbacks of the Cursed Seal?

5. Briefly detail what your plans are, at the moment, for your character if he/she is approved for Sage Mode and/or Cursed Seal? 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?
 * <-- Yoshida will use Sage Mode as a way to complete Miyabi's teachings of inner peace and harmony. He will also use it to manipulate Amaterasu in the form Blaze Release (This will be applied for when the ban is lifted) -->
