1) Which village are you applying this Kage/Village Head for?

I am applying for the spot of Mizukage. And by extension Kirigakure. I will also be applying for Land of Water, but I will do a separate application for the Daimyo directly.

2) What is the name of the candidate you are applying for this position?

The name of the candidate is Himari Niko.

3) How did your candidate become recommended for the position? (Be extremely detailed in this section, as it is quite important for the outcome of the application)

So, the entire premise of Kirigakure is that following the collapse of the shinobi union, and the fallout after the wars caused by the world’s dependence on technology and its overuse, that a second bloody mist era entered. It’s perhaps that Bloodline users were discriminated against for a small period of time, which sparked them into action. Those with KG came to take power, and basically united. Using their bloodlines, they achieved great military power, removing the Daimyo’s family from power, and establishing themselves as aristocrats in Kirigakure for decades. My character, Himari Niko is a member of a family who are typically chosen to become the Jinchuriki of Saiken, due to their high chakra reserves, and uniquely compatible chakra.

However, Jinchuriki/Tailed Beast are generally seen as nothing but weapons of destruction who are meant to be controlled by KG users. However, they are still valuable, and for that she isn’t at the “bottom” of society just yet. Shinobi without KG are contracted into Kirigakure’s military and are forced to fight on the front lines in wars of expansion. However, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen are chosen of these “mutts”. The best of them are given the swords and are used akin to some sort of hit squad. Himari Niko, as the Jinchuriki of Saiken, is effectively chosen by the demon blade, Samehada, due to her chakra and comes to head the ninja swordsmen. Over time, her skill grows, and with training she eventually comes to better her control over Saiken’s powers.

In part, they become amicable because of Saiken’s gentler disposition as compared to the rest of the beast, and Himari’s cause is semi-similar to the TB predicament. She is thought of as a tool for power, both as a jinchuriki, and as a swordsman. Anyway, to conclude, with her mastered jinchuriki powers and samehada at her side, she becomes overwhelmingly powerful, and the KG users begin to fear that their philosophy will be proven wrong of KG superiority. They attempt to destroy her, which sparks a rebellion led by Himari, in which she wins and becomes Mizukage as a result. She abolishes the caste system of all kinds, attempting to truly leave behind any remnants of discrimination. She also finds remnants of the daimyo’s family, and reestablishes them as the rulers of the Land of Water.

4) Upon attaining the position, what has your candidate done within the position for the village? (In terms of economical, political and militant advantages or progress for the village)

So, it’s been roughly 6 months since Himari has taken the mantle, and much of our personal storyline will be exploring how she can deal with various issues of Kirigakure. We suspect that during this time period of KG superiority, that any lands that weren’t believers of this creed either refused to trade with Kirigakure, or Kirigakure refused to trade with them, meaning that we haven’t traded a ton. Currently, she has abolished notions of any political, economic advantages of any group, KG or non KG users.

5) From this point in the Fanon Canon Revolution timeline onward, what plans does your Kage/Village Head have in order to improve the state of the village on the international stage? (Alliances, investing in further technology, investing in strengthening the military, etc)

We need alliances if we are to better our infrastructure. Because the previous government believed KG> Tech, and pretty much everything, we are desperate to catch up technologically in a world that may be leaving Kirigakure behind.
