The Academy training gounds - 3 wooden posts stand in the center of the area, a stream slowly rolling by a distance behind them and a stand of trees to the right. The Academy building blocks the south, while the jagged teeth of the mountains into which the memorials to the past Hokages tower to the north.
Kakashi's students have been instructed not to eat dinner the night before, and to meet him at the break of dawn at the training grounds for their very first mission. The grounds are empty... it's far too early for classes and most of Konoha is still snuggled comfortably in bed. Dawn is breaking over the horizon.. the first rays of light cutting through the pale grey of dusk and peeking over the rooftops of the Village Hidden in the Leaves. It's chilly, as it is most mornings and the dew has yet to evaporate from the blades of grass. Iruka has shown some trepidation at the assignment of Kakashi to this team, but has not told any of his young students anything about the man who will become their mentor.
As usual, Kakashi Sensei is running late. (2 rounds of posts before Kakashi sensei shows his face. Get to know one another, or throw insults ... either way... if you're on time, you've got a little time to waste before your 'responsible' teacher arrives. 1st round of posts should be 'arrival' and detailed descriptions of your character. 2nd round can be anything you like. )
Thread Rules:
1) Activity - If you have not responded within three days of a point at which it is your turn, I will Automode your character for one post. If within another 3 days you have not posted, your Character will be Automoded 'out'... either through injury or illness, or a summons away. Something will incapacitate or redirect your character. This will allow the other two to continue without waiting. IF within one month of your last post, I have not had a PM or post from you, I will assume you have dropped out of Team Kakashi and will open up a spot for someone else.
2) Open ended posts - Actions must remain open ended and non-definitive. Use words such as: Attempted, Tried, Aimed, Intended, strove, endeavored, Sought to, etc.
3) (I know you guys know, but it's in here anyway) No fewer than 300 words per post. Same rules as the rest of the board: 3rd person past tense Narrative, please. Internal thoughts should appear like this: Crap, I'm running late again... Oh well. The kids need to learn patience, anyway. to easily distinguish between internal and external Dialogue. Spoken words Should be surrounded by Quotation marks - "Yo, kiddies."
4) Damage - follow board rules. Do not intentionally ignore damage. The only person who can determine Damage taken by a character, is the player of said character. If there is a question or dispute, please PM me. If I have a question about how a Jutsu or attack works, I will send a PM to whomever the attack, Jutsu or move belongs to. Try and be as descriptive as you can when using Non-canon Jutsu.
5) Editing posts - You have until the next person responds to edit your post for better narrative, spell-check or length. Once someone else has posted a reply, you may no longer Edit your post. You MAY NOT change your actions, merely enhance their description. If an action, in retrospect, turns out to be suprisingly idiotic, you MUST deal with the consequences.
7) Each of you please choose a non-eye-hurty colour for your character. Kakashi will be standard Grey.
6) Have fun!! This should be a learning experience for us all, and a chance to really play together as a 'team'. I can't wait to see what happens!
