**Shusuke Senju** is a dedicated member to the Senju Clan by birth, yet isn't so much of one in actions. He respects his birth name, but nobility wasn't a good look on the free spirit to which he makes it known by keeping to himself rather than being bunched up with his fellow clan members. After growing stronger and hearing of others leaving the village in search for their own gain and others wanting to stay for safety or because it was home, he made up his mind and left the village for some years. Tales of a tanned young man would creep back to the village by his good attitude and sometimes distasteful fighting patterns with random bandits. Traveling further and further, one day the young man that left would come back with blue ringed markings across his body speaking of finding true enlightenment through pain.

## Background

After the birth of Shusuke, things were calm as he was born to a noble family, and ones with strength behind their words and bodies. Much to the child's eyes, the world was vast and needed to be explored! The fiery spirit that burned within this little boy was one that could be seen in his own two eyes from the moment the opened. As life progressed and he began to walk, he would show signs of wanting to go past his mother and father's eyes to lie beyond the lands outside of the home. Having an older sister that deeply cared for him, he grew attached, often wining when she would leave his side, wanting her there time and time again, even more than his own parents. His older brother though was one that frowned upon him in anger, wanting to be the only true son of their father, going as far as to shun the young one away.

Skipping forward to Shusuke's childhood, he would begin to see more things than just walls and green leaves. Opting to sit and watch his siblings train with their father for hours on end, he was content with the sight of it. Another year passed as he was now able to start his own training. Yet his father was obliviously stern even in the young boy's age. Wanting to still become strong like his family. Pushed and pushed throughout the coming years as he would find his affinity with water. Loving the look, and feel of the liquid. Wanting to always feel it, at this point he dedicated his time to learning ninjutsu and taijutsu. His sister and brother were still more powerful than he, but that didn't sway him away. Instead, he would spar with his sister and would receive cruel beatings from his brother.

At the ripe age of 10 years old, Shusuke had found his first rival with someone near his age, but highly skilled just like himself; That boy being Hanzo Uchiha. Through the next few years, they would have a small amount of heated moments against each other in fights, often ending in a stalemate until their last fight, which resulted in both giving scars to each other. Shusuke cut down the cheek, on the corner of the lip to Hanzo, while Shusuke was given one that extended from the left side of his nose to the side of his face. This happening at the age of 15, that was the last time Shusuke would see his rival, even after the village was established. Shusuke would be off by himself, wandering around aimlessly while he felt lost in the times and where he had been. The world was meant to be explored and that's exactly what he would do.

Before leaving the village for his own gain, his mother begged him to stay as the last thing she needed was one of her babies going off and getting himself killed. His father on the other hand though was one that threatened him to be exiled from the clan if he did such. Then, for the next four years, not much is known beyond what he has told people. The following is all of the accounts he would give to anybody that he didn't care to tell. He hunted down the ocean from every way he could, fought countless battles and met a giant octopus. When he arrived home, he was seen with many different adornments to him, along with black and blue rings lining his skin. Along with this, he kept his left eye closed, with a new scar combining with the one Hanzo had given him. In his absence though, his older brother and sister were both killed on the line of duty and all he had left was his little sister, mom and dad, even if he didn't want to claim the nobility side of the clan he still cared for them. His father though still held the grudge of Shusuke leaving them behind in his own personal pursuit. Barely speaking to him, or even looking at him. This caused a rift between their family, yet being the type of person Shusuke was, he would often meet up with his little sister and mother randomly as he deemed fit, but always kept a watchful eye on them. In the coming year, he had shown his improvement and was given the rank of Jōnin for his proper skill and love of the village. Not wanting to leave it ever again as he could see what might happen had he left for too long, he promised to protect it with his life.

Now wanting to train the new generation that should one day succeed him, he would keep himself on par with others, yet to himself so he can focus on what was important.

## Personality

Shusuke is an odd specimen coming from a noble clan in Konohagakure. He chooses to distance himself from the line yet still respects the name or if anything is asked. Openly though, he's one to downplay his proper place in the clan so much that even he has forgotten where he stands with them most times. He often likes to be near bodies of water, even going so far as to make his own source if need be so he can feel comfortable with training or even meditating. A spirit of fire and wanting to always be the best he can be, he will often push more than others. Even being a bully in the most lighthearted way by simply cracking jokes to entice friends and them alike to fight him or even just have a small race. He's also been known to be quite the pervert, having been caught peeping at women in the hot springs before, and reading erotic stories that are published.

A burning desire though to train the Genin of the next generation is what he wants to do though, thinking that perhaps his own teachings might not be too bad providing he didn't get stuck with some dull headed kids. Even if he had to beat the crap out of his students for his teachings to get through to them, he would do so. Stern to a degree, he can't keep it up long until he breaks it all, wanting to just have as much fun as possible or remain calm like the never-ending waters. If he were to ever discipline his students, he would more than likely feel bad for doing it, bursting into tears immediately and hugging onto them with positive reassurance that they can do it if they put their mind to whatever they have to accomplish.

He can become very serious if the time calls for it, switching personas for him is like watching a storm appear as he shows no mercy if it's someone planning to harm the village he came from, that forged the bond of blood with him and all that remain in it. With that being said, he will go to all lengths to protect Konohagakure, even if it meant he had to give his life for it. A true moniker on water users, he boasts his skill and can back up the words that mention it with pure actions. Needless to say, he isn't one to take lightly in the heat of battle.

Past that, he has an odd addiction though to sightseeing, which goes towards anything he can just see that is new. If left unattended for too long, he'll wander off to find something new, whether it be in the oceans, mountains, underground or to different villages; Especially if there's stories of it, it's hard to resist the urge.

Another habit he also has is when he finds a new poison or venom, he wants to grow a resistance to it, often asking if need be for small samples he can use to use to do so with. This only developed in him after he met Jestex the Great Blue Ringed Octopus and began his resistance to the venom.
