▰▰▰ SOCIAL AND PERSONALITY
Nindo: "I'm not going down without a fight!"
Personality: Yoshiro is a loose cannon, operating purely on instincts and gut reactions. This often causes him to be rather short-sighted and he rarely gives his actions any forethought. But hey, if you ask him, it's better than being one of those people who overanalyze things. Better to ask for forgiveness than permission, right? Not that Yoshiro would ever humble himself enough to ask for forgiveness. Pride is perhaps Yoshiro greatest weakness. He cannot refuse a challenge nor can he let an insult slide by. Of course, Yoshiro's pride isn't all bad, as it's what fuels his fighting spirit. A highly determined individual, once Yoshiro sets his mind to something, he'll give it his absolute all, even if the odds are stacked against him. Unfortunately, determination can often be a slippery slope to stubbornness and Yoshiro frequently crosses this line, refusing to give up even when it would be the smart thing to do.
While it may be easy to simply write Yoshiro off as a boy with a short attention span and an even shorter fuse, there's more to him than meets the eyes. Though he may not be the best at showing it, he does care about the well being of those close to him and can be highly protective. He's also fiercely loyal, so once you've made friends with Yoshiro, we'll be there for you no matter what. It may be worth mentioning as well that he has a strong love for cooking and a major soft spot for animals, especially dogs. Of course, don't expect him to ever admit to any of these things. Yoshiro believes that showing his softer side will present weakness, and weak is something he won't allow himself to be.
Village: Uzushiogakure
Title: Genin
Background: Born in Konohagakue, Yoshiro lived a pleasant life with his parents Ichiro and Hazumi. Coming from what some might describe as humble beginnings, Yoshiro's parents owned and operated a small noodle shop and though they never reached any great heights in popularity, they had a small group of loyal customers that allowed to get by. While Yoshiro spent plenty of time in his childhood running about the village with the other children and getting into his fair share of trouble here and there, his favorite past time was being in his parents' shop. Whether he was just observing or getting to help with small tasks every now and then, Yoshiro loved being in the kitchen and watching his parents work. He found cooking fascinating, being able to combine mundane ingredients into something delicious, and the look on a customer's face when they were done enjoying their meal was always so satisfying. Even though he still had his whole life ahead of him, Yoshiro knew that he wanted nothing more in life than to follow in his father's footsteps and become a great noodle chef.........or so he thought.
When Konoha was attacked and laid to waste, his family was lucky enough to have not gotten caught up in all of the violence, but their shop was destroyed it the conflict's wake along with most of their possessions. Gathering whatever they could manage to scavenge from the remains, his family joined many others in relocating to Uzushiogakure. These events set Yoshiro on a new path in life. They made him realized just how much he valued his parents and all the time the three of them had shared in their little noodle shop. They also awoke a fiery spirit within him, fueled by his desire to protect that which was so precious to him. As such, he vowed to become a powerful fighter, one who could defend his home and his family.
Eventually, the refugees from various villages were able to settle into Uzushio and build it into a fine village. His parents were even able to reopen their noodle shop, choosing to stick with the small, intimate design they had before. Just as he had in Konoha, Yoshiro continued to observe and help out around the shop whenever he could, but he also had a new responsibility to juggle in his life after deciding to enroll in the village's ninja academy. Not coming from any notable clan or having any family history of shinobi work, Yoshiro is considered by some to be a bit of a long shot for actually becoming a ninja but he's willing to push himself and work harder than anyone else in order to achieve his goal.
