**Gamu** (ガム, *Gamu*) is a young man from the Hidden Cloud Village with a love of Bubblegum and a desire to prove his worth as a shinobi of the village. He is well-known within the Hidden Cloud Village for being a goofball and for messing around. His eccentric actions and specialization in his rather underrated Bubblegum Ninja Arts allowed him to build a reputation for himself.

## **Background**

Gamu was born in the Hidden Cloud Village though he was raised in an orphanage as his parents dumped him there shortly after he was born. This was something that stuck with him as he grew, it also what pushed him to want to be a ninja to prove the parents who threw him away that he was worth more then they deserved. This led him to his mentor Akarui a practitioner of Bubblegum Ninja Arts. Akarui saw the potential and trained the kid and became like a father figure to him. The two share a relationship similar to Naruto and Iruka. He is now formerly homeless as he has recently moved in with his teammate Tomoko Ōkami and her parents Ayako Ōkami and Jiro Raikyu.

## **Personality**

Gamu is the kind of carefree and goofy person. He's the type to dance around and have fun during any situation even if it not the correct time for that type of action. He's also likely to make jokes at the worst possible time, though while Gamu is a fun-loving, goofball he is also a shinobi and will always do his best to protect his friends and complete his missions.

## **Tools**

Tool wise Gamu carries most of your standard issue Shinobi Tools like Kunai, Shuriken, Smoke Bombs, Flash Bombs and Explosive Tags. Although this isn't his only tools he carries with him as is is almost never seen without his single Supervibrato Lightning Release Swords which he uses for his Kenjutsu techniques for which he tends to incorporate Lightning Release into. Other then these things his also has a large amount of bubblegum stashed all over his body and within his clothes. This is a necessity for Gamu as without bubblegum his Bubblegum Ninja Arts is useless.

## **Chakra and Attributes**

### Chakra Reserves

While Gamu is still a Genin he is much older than the average as he failed the past Chunin exams he's competed in. Though due to all the training and experience he's gained he has managed to raise his chakra reserves to a point where it rivals that of a Chunin. This allows for him to make great use of his Bubblegum Ninja Arts.

### Chakra Control

As most of Gamu's Jutsu rely on directly kneading chakra into his Bubblegum without requiring hand seals or channeling Lightning Release Chakra inot his sword. This meant he needed to practice harder and in doing so ended up specializing in Bubblegum Ninja Arts and Kenjutsu allowing him to focus on those two things which allowed him to enhance his chakra control to a level that surpasses the average genin.

### Life Force

Gamu's life force is rather average and nothing to right home about. He isn't from any unique lineage or special clan, as an orphan who was abandoned by his parents he has no knowledge of where he belongs.

### Willpower

As an orphan living on the streets within the Slums of the Hidden Cloud Village, Gamu struggled everyday of his life to survive. He had to fight for food, and battle the elements all to get by. These harsh experiences at a young age nurtured within Gamu a strong will to never give up and always push forward.

### Intent

Like with his willpower Gamu also has a strong will, though unlike other he doesn't try to use it to enforce dominance over others. Instead he uses his strong intent to try to calm others and appear unthreatening.

## **Abilities**

### Sensory

Being a Genin and having attending the Hidden Cloud Ninja Academy means that Gamu has been trained in the art of Sensory. This doesn't be any means imply he's great at the task. Honestly Gamu is slightly above average in this department as it isn't his forte, though in the future with a bit of specialized training he could improve his sensory ability.

### Intelligence

Gamu possess average intelligence for someone his age. He isn't a genius, but he isn't stupid either. When it comes the the intelligence department Gamu is in know way the go to man.

### Hand Signs

Gamu's knowledge in the area of Hand Signs is rather basic comparable to that of a basic genin. This isn't due to a lack of skill on his part in anyway, in fact it is only due to a lack of necessity. Gamu specializes in his Bubblegum Ninja Arts and Kenjutsu neither of which require a single hand sigh to preform. All other techniques he knows a simple basic techniques that don't require many hand sign in the first place.

### Speed

Gamu has spent years running through the slums and training as a ninja and thanks to this along with his skill in the usage of the Body Flicker Technique he has become fast enough to leave behind a blurred afterimage after moving at top speed.

### Strength

Due to the intense physical training, Gamu had gone through training while under Akarui he has a conditioned his body and muscles that a single punch has been shown to splinter wood on impact. Gamu's strength along with his sword make his swing extra dangerous as the not only have improved cutting and piercing capabilities but also power behind it.

### Durability

Due to the intense physical training, Gamu had gone through while training under Akarui he has a conditioned his body allowing him to take a lot before finally dropping. This is in turned helped by all the fights he got into while living on the streets as people would try to steal any food he managed to get his hands on.

### Stamina

Due to his upbringing and growing up in the slums Gamu has had to struggle and fight to survive at times often having to try and outrun and outlast much large and stronger opponents. This has conditioned his body to allow him to fight for longer before succumbing to exhaustion.

### Recovery

Gamu's has a recovery rate like that of any average person which isn't anything special. He has no special skills or abilities to change or alter this in anyway. This means he heals at the rate of any normal person.

## **Jutsu**

### Kenjutsu & Taijutsu

Seeing that he hails from the Hidden Cloud Village in the Land of Lightning Gamu has taken to preferring to rely on Taijutsu & Kenjutsu alongside his Bubblegum Ninja Art. Gamu's skill in Kenjutsu is considered to be higher then others his age, so much so that he even developed his own signature technique the Cloud-Style Descending Thunder. When fighting Gamu often makes use of his affinity to the element of Lightning to enhance his Kenjutsu which is made easy by his sword.

### Ninjutsu

Ninjutsu is an area were Gamu is rather skilled in for his age. While he isn't known for utilizing your more tradition Ninjutsu except for the common ones that most shinobi are expected to know, he is known for utilizing his own specialized brand of Ninjutsu that was taught to him by the homeless man who helped raise and care for Gamu in his youth. This specialized brand of Ninjutsu is called the Bubblegum Ninja Arts and is a highly versatile jutsu that Gamu makes masterful use of, and with enough time and growth it could evolve into something truly dangerous.

### Fūinjutsu

When it comes to the art of Fūinjutsu, Gamu isn't very skilled or well versed in its usage at all. As it isn't something he focuses on his knowledge and skill are rather lacking.

## **Companions**

Gamu as of right now doesn't have any companion as he had never had a chance to find and form a bond when he was living alone on the streets in the Slums of Shiden Province of the Land of Lightning.
