APPEARANCE,

Chou is 4’ 9” with a tan and obviously ripening body, any pubescent boy of the same age would consider beautiful. She weighs 85 lbs; she has very little fat and quite a bit of muscle. When close to her you can smell her perfume, which smells of berries. Any boy that would set their eyes her would immediately be aroused by her feminine features. The only problem is that since she is normally pent up with bugs instead of socializing she wears clothes that would normally be seen by the Aburame men.

If one were to talk of her body it represents every ideal of the word “sensuality” other than the bugs occasionally crawling over her skin. Her beauty is natural and could be exemplified by makeup, if she wore it. Her skin is a soft peach color, and it glows under the right light, but not in most lights. Her hair is a shiny bright brown that barely extends down to her shoulders, and it has the smell of freshly picked strawberries and her bangs settle down to below her eyebrows. Behind her sunglasses, hides a stunning set of bright green eyes. They always appear to be staring into the soul of whomever she may be inspecting. Her glasses have a very petit oval frame and hang on her nose, much like a prude librarian. She has a tiny nose and thin lips, which completes her petit appearance.

Chou wears loose black pants and a black sleeveless turtle-neck. She has fingerless gloves that reach high up on her arm. These black gloves are actually made from flexible protective armor, which is covered by a layer of durable fabric to make them look like regular gloves. They have a metal plate over the front and back of both hand areas. Her belt has a pouch, which is a bag that is able to contain her fighting and medical equipment. The shoes this girl wears are customized with a sheet of metal on the bottom so that they can be used to block attacks. These shoes look like boots with the toe of them open. Over top of all this she wears a closed jacket with a raised neck, which is similar to all the other Aburame’s coats but instead of tan it is black with red lining.

PERSONALITY,

Empathy and sympathy are almost non-existent for Chou; anything that would make a normal person sad has no effect on this girl. She has a gross and persistent attitude of irresponsibility and disregard for social norms, rules, and obligations. Chou is unable to maintain enduring relationships, though she has no difficulty in establishing them. The reason she has no trouble making the relationships is because kissing, hugging, and physical affection releases endorphins and this pleasure draws her to other people. She could care less about whether they are boys or girls as long as they provide physical affection. Even though the slightest mishap can irritate her she has a talent with bottling up her emotions. The antisocial attitude she has seems to have its own artificial charms because it tends to emphasize qualities males like to see: loving physical affection, having a great body, and not talking much.

Chou is a girl with a very apathetic attitude towards everything she does. She carries herself with a slight slouch because even standing is too much of an effort for her. She is, however, not lazy, but she just has no motivation unless it’s for her own personal gain. When things could affect her in any positive way she will normally do anything in her power to get that personal gain. Being selfish isn’t enough for her, she needs to win anything and everything due to her regular ego this is actually quite normal for her. Her uncaring attitude will catch many people’s attention, and they call her “unskilled” when in fact she is the opposite. She is a genius, yet doesn’t want to rank up because the missions would be too much work and she wouldn’t be getting anything substantial from it.

Even though people mainly see her need to win and her search for constant personal gain as selfish she would really love to know what real feelings are like. Chou yearns to feel what all other girls feel: feelings of love. Her lack of being able to connect has made her very dissocial and unable to feel love or friendship. If someone could change her it would be a miracle behalf.

STRENGTHS,

Chou is extremely strong and fast: her speed and strength can easily be compared to a taijutsu expert due to the fact that the bugs in her body tear her muscles apart and allow them to heal; this works much like working out without the actual “work”. She has an incredible level of mastery over her bugs that can make even the highest ranked Aburame ninja jealous. On top of this she has an incredible intelligence for her age and doesn’t let feelings get in the way. Chou has such a high mastery of bugs that she can fit twice the amount of bugs that a normal Aburame can stuff into their body. Lacking higher brain functions, the kikaichū's actions are governed almost entirely by their five powerful senses and simpler nervous systems. Because of this, they are unaffected by genjutsu--which are designed to affect more complex nervous systems along with the higher brain functions of humans. Unlike humans and other animals, the kikachū do not even notice genjutsu. This immunity to genjutsu is also extended to the recipients of the Destruction Bug Host Technique, allowing the bug-user to detect genjutsu, and to be able to function against genjutsu-users at the same capacity without impaired judgment.

WEAKNESSES,

More or less, she dislikes almost anything that she comes across. Even though a normal Aburame can use chakra-consuming techniques, Chou has an inability to use normal techniques because she gives the bugs her own chakra to make up for the fact that her body is a very crowded nest; in dire situations she can use the chakra that are in the bugs to substantially walk on water and walk up trees, but anything more would be very stressful on her body. Due to the fact that she doesn’t particularly like living she never gives her “all” in a fight. Also she is horrible with weapons if she ever needed to throw a kunai by herself or use a sword she would easily screw something up and she'd probably accidently stab herself.

FAMILY,
Not important…

HISTORY,

Chou was born into a family that lived on the outer edges of the nearest forest to Konoha. Her small branch of the Aburame clan, though still subject to using the kikaichu in battle was a bee farming family. Some younger shinobi believed that they trained bears, which came from the simple fact that many of the shinobi from this family ended up using a fighting style that resembled a bear’s fighting style. They developed this style during their lifetime of keeping bears away from their honey farm; they began to mimic the bears trying to get the family honey. In the early years of her life, Chou preferred to watch the bears that would gather around their farm. While one of the older shinobi would stand guard over the farm, they generally took Chou with them. The smell of the honey and the sight of the bears kept her in a content mind set.

Chou developed into a very anti-social little girl and she didn’t spend much time with her parents, but this didn’t keep her family from trying to connect with her. She didn’t have a fondness of people, but she loved the animals and the wilderness outside of her home. When she became old enough, she would watch the bears from behind the fence. During these years she caught onto the way the shinobi in her family fought when they chased off the bears. She practiced this style as she came closer to the appropriate age to join the academy; however she had no real luck using this style effectively so she began to watch some Capoeira classes when her family went into town. Finally at the age of 8 they sent their daughter to be an Academy Student. The weapons she got were simple and made by the people in the family, but Chou immediately threw them away.

To pay for Chou’s tuition to the academy her family used a scholarship founded by the higher branch of the clan. The Scholarship was based on financial need, and since her family still needed to pay for some of the actual schooling they were given an interview with one of the council members in order to validate their requirement for financial aid. Her family told the Council that Chou wouldn’t be able to get into the academy without the basic funds provided by the higher branches. When her family sent her off to the academy they gave her a small amount of money to last her for the first couple of days. Once she had taken the train to the academy and began taking classes, Chou did small jobs around town to pay for her living expenses. While she took classes, she never had any problems learning the basics. The other ninjutsu and genjutsu weren’t hard to learn either, but she just had no interest in them. She loved to fight hand to hand and with her bugs so instead of taking time learning new jutsu Chou focused on innovative ways to use the Kikaichu. Even though she’s very talented she hides it. Chou has been in the Academy for about 3 years and they are about to give up hope on her, but if only they knew how skilled she truly is.

EQUIPMENT,
Tons of Kikaichu

The Kikaichū ("Destruction Bugs"; Literally meaning "Parasitic Destruction Insects") are a species of small, beetle-like insects that are bred and utilized exclusively by the Aburame clan for their unique techniques. All members of the Aburame clan actually live in symbiosis with the kikaichū through the practice of a Hiden Jutsu; the Destruction Bug Host Technique: The Aburame clan, shortly after birth, allows the kikaichū to nest and breed inside the their bodies and feed off of their Chakra, and, in return, through this practice, the host ninja receives the life-long ability to control and command the bugs, using them as their primary fighting technique.

The most common use of the kikachū in combat is to ambush an opponent and drain them of their chakra before they notice the bugs at work. This process can leave the victim with so little chakra that unable to move or fight back. Other uses include simply tracking down a target, serving as a a protective shield and as a prison to hold and detain a target in place. The kikaichū can fly, and they will typically move in swarms when on the attack, or in smaller numbers when practicing stealth. A female bug can be left on a target and then they can be tracked by smell, or scout bugs can be sent out and return to tell the host information about the area. Thanks to the kikachū, Aburame clan members are experts in communication and espionage, due to their ability to communicate with the insects, stealth because the kikaichū make no noise or motion during combat, as well as in search-and-seizure missions.

Usually, since the kikaichū only have a lifespan of a few hours, they are always breeding safe within their host, maintaining their numbers. Because of their short lifespans, the kikaichū are easily expendable in combat. If large numbers of the kikaichū should be wiped out, then the bug-user can utilize Secret Technique: Insect Cocoon, a technique which can be used to rapidly breed a whole new generation of the kikachū, repopulating their numbers.

FIGHTING STYLE,

Chou uses a form of Capoeira, an art form and self-defense; with strong aerobic and dance elements. It is a mixture of body and soul, fighting and dancing requiring the use of mental, physical, and emotional agility. The emphasis is not on how well you perform but on how much energy you commit to trying. It is a harmony of forces that gives you power, flexibility, and endurance.

The form she has developed has come from observing Capoeira classes during her free time. Chou visually picks the style apart thus it is impossible for her to master it to a degree. To any skilled Capoeira fighter his fighting is sloppy and seems very little like their style other than a few aspects.

When fighting she mainly uses kicks and barely ever incorporates the use of her arms or hands. When attacked she favors dodging to take no damage instead of blocking and taking a blow to the arm or the leg.

The moves she does have memorized, she has not practiced. Most of what she does is improvised, and it may actually end with him messing up. Though due to a combination of her fast reflexes and quick thinking she can usually alter her mistake. People not acquainted with the style may not notice, but anyone with knowledge of the style will notice the improvisation.

JUTSU,

Name: Bug Clone Technique (Mushi Bunshin no Jutsu)
Rank: None
Type: Hiden
Description: Using the Kikaichū bugs living in their body, the user can create a copy of themselves or anyone else they choose. The clone falls apart into its component bugs when struck. Because they're made of bugs, the clones can reform almost instantly.

Name: Bug Gathering Technique (Mushi Yose no Jutsu)
Rank: None
Type: Hiden
Description: By simply touching a surface, the user releases a small web of chakra that draws bugs to their location.

Name: Bug Jar Technique (Mushi Kame no Jutsu)
Rank: None
Type: Hiden
Description: This jutsu uses the Kikaichū bugs living in the user's body as a shield by having them fly in a dome shape at high speed. The dome is strong enough to destroy incoming attacks, but can be disrupted with sufficient explosive force.

Name: Destruction Bug Host Technique (Kikaichū no Jutsu)
Rank: None
Type: Hiden
Description: The Destruction Bug Host Technique is a practice exclusive to the Aburame clan; a clan famed for its use of the kikachū in their jutsu. To grant a newborn member of the clan the use of the kikaichū, the newborn's body is offered to insects as a nest. Then over the years, as the child grows up, they are instructed in the Hiden Jutsu of the clan, and learn how the insects may serve them in combat.

Name: Secret Technique: Insect Cocoon (Hijutsu: Mushi Miyu)
Rank: None
Type: Hiden
Description: This unique jutsu is a secret technique that allows the user to increase the speed of insects' development. As the user's body is already a hive of sorts for the insects, the user will encase himself in an actual cocoon to further aid the insects. This is an extremely useful move for Aburame clan members, since their attacks mainly focus on the usage of bugs. However, using this in the midst of a battle can be potentially dangerous as it leaves the user static and vulnerable.

Name: Secret Technique: Insect Sphere (秘術・蟲玉, Hijutsu: Mushidama)
Rank: None
Type: Hiden
Description: By using the destruction bugs, members of the Aburame clan surround their opponent with thousands of bugs, making a globe of bugs around the opponent beforehand to completely trap them. Once trapped, the bugs would normally drain the chakra and swallow their victim. The bugs covering the victims body prevent movement, but should they escape the bugs will follow them.

[AZU~NYAN]

This looks like a good application to me, but the only thing that just really bugs me is the fact that she is an Academy Student with the skill level of a Chuunin. Of course, if the admins allowed it, then I'll have to go with their decision. I personally believe that's a bit strong, but anyway...

As you said, you need another weakness (and honestly, I'm a bit slow and it was hard to count them... Haha.) but since you've written it in paragraph form, I don't really care about that.

Anyway... Yeah.

approved !
