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

Konohagakure

#2. What is the name of the candidate you are applying this position for? Sentei Hatake. The page is to be made still, but the image is here for a rough reference.

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

The village of Konohagakure views two primary things in a candidate for Hokage: strength and charisma. Charisma in the sense that they are able to unite people together under a singular moral compass and set an example for all Shinobi of the village. In other words, possessing the Will of Fire. However, following the Fourth Shinobi World War, the Hokage's role became even more prominent as the primary head of the Shinobi Alliance. To this end, they also required someone who had the strength and resolve to confront and tackle all matters of the Shinobi alliance themselves, and rise above all its issues.

Sentei Hatake, as he grew up, was known to be a prodigal shinobi. Possessing outstanding control over chakra, he mastered Ninjutsu in a very short period of time, and soon began to invent his own methods of Ninjutsu, which became popular among a select group of people. Likewise, due to those who taught him, Sentei was strongly attached to his village and the Will of Fire, and believed all those who are a part of the village must act with this principle in mind. Following his promotion to Chunin, Sentei was actually a part-time teacher within the Shinobi Academy, where he continued to spread his influence to the younger generation of Shinobi, who found themselves following the path he treaded due to his charisma.

During his tenure as a Chunin and Jonin, the bulk of Sentei's mission were international to varying degrees. This was just following the era where technology went nigh-extinct from the world and the various Shinobi countries had a falling out with one another due to their incredible desire to regain technological advancement. Much of Sentei’s missions were allocated to the retrieval of information and regaining neutrality with other villages. Over time, both his skill in Ninjutsu and his negotiation prowess alike left him known among Shinobi villages as the “Empty-Handed Ninja”, for both his unique method of manipulating chakra and his forthright persona when entering negotiations.

Eventually, he was sought out by the Daimyou and was added to his personal guard. Among the his companions, he was at the forefront of international matters and consulted the Daimyou primarily with matters of international negotiation and management of the Land of Fire as a whole. Despite Sentei not being wholly experienced in political matters, the Daimyou had, to a degree, appreciated Sentei’s idealistic advice, and found himself noting the man’s innate charisma and potential for leadership. Throughout the years, the Daimyou had raised Sentei and his political skills, noting his growth as a leader. Eventually, the Daimyou himself would recommend Sentei for the position of Hokage, despite his long-standing absence from the village. Although it was quite a tricky process, due to the verity of candidates that existed in the village, there was a key element of difference the elders noted in Sentei’s position: his fraternity with the Daimyou. Should they have been able to cooperate with the Daimyou, their ability to gather funds and expand their technological prowess would know no bounds.

As such, for the selfish reason of once again advancing to the top of the Shinobi world, the Konoha elders and Jonin council elected Sentei Hatake as the Tenth Hokage.

'''#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)'''

Sentei has fine-tuned various aspects of the village. He has increased technological growth, particularly in the medical and agricultural sector, in order to accommodate for the increased number of residents and the demand for greater food supply. While he does not involve himself in the combat technology so much, Sentei does not prevent its progress so long as permission is granted from himself. One of the biggest additions to Konohagakure that Sentei has made is expansion of its overall influence to all across the Land of Fire, by way of his connection to the Daimyou. He has formed a tight unity with the other villages across the land and accordingly has emboldened the Land of Fire’s forces so that any attack from another village or military force will not come out clean.

'''#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)'''

Sentei’s primary issues are to resolve intra-political tensions within the Land of Fire, dealing with the international terrorist organization Sadame, and slowly building cordial relations once more with the rest of the Shinobi nations. A personal wish of Sentei’s is to rebuild the Shinobi Union, and attempts to use this time of crisis with Sadame as a means to invoke that wish.
